Chapter 7

The next morning, I awoke still full from the dinner party the night before. Rufus had an entire catering company come in and set up trays and trays of food. Surprisingly, the vegetarian options were amazing. They’d had BBQ tofu sliders that tasted like real chicken and a key lime cheesecake to die for. After I finished showering and brushing my teeth, I came out to see my mate lacing up his shoes. His hair was still wet from our shower together and he was sitting there shirtless. I couldn’t help but size him up.

Damn.

He looked up and gave me his sexy bedroom eyes. “You know, Keegan and Danny are thinking of having their wedding in Hawaii.”

“Oh?” I walked closer.

He nodded. “He’s asked me to be his best man, so I guess I can bring you along as my date.”

Laughter pealed out of me. “You guess, huh?” I played coy.

He reached out and pulled me on top of him quickly, making my dragon pulse heat to my core. “But only because I want to see you in a bikini again,” he said, sucking my bottom lip into his mouth.

Again? Oh right, that purple monstrosity from Eva’s bar. I was about to respond when there was a knock at the door.

“The staff is ready,” Keegan’s deep voice called through the door.

Oh my God. It was ready? What did that mean?

I leapt off of Logan and swung the door open. Keegan took one look at Logan shirtless on the bed and my messy hair and just laughed.

“Does it work? I mean, is it whole?” I asked the alpha.

He shrugged. “Isaac just said it was ‘ready.’” He did air quotes.

I tore down the hall walking as quickly as I could without looking too eager, all the time praying it worked, that it was better. Then I could have the best of both worlds, wear the necklaces to help shelter the skyborn like my mom did, but have the staff to draw my druid power into the earth and save my mate bond with my dragon.

Please. Please. Please!

The golden double doors to Rufus’ office were open; he and Isaac were talking. They’d reached some weird friendship like Sophie and I had.

The second I entered, my eyes fell to the desk.

“Holy mother,” I breathed.

Rufus grinned and ran his fingers over the length of my staff. It was whole again but it had changed. The lower two thirds of the wood were solid gold and ended in a razor-sharp point. The top half still resembled its original form but the crystal, that was once a deep purple, now had a goldish hue to it.

“Does it work?” I asked, as I stared at my resurrected staff.

Rufus wrapped his fingers around the wood and handed it to me. “You tell me.”

I looked at Isaac, who nodded. “Outside.” He tipped his head behind him.

When I spun, I saw that the pack was awake and dressed, standing in the open doorway. They parted ways for Isaac and I, while we walked through the house to the outside.
