Chapter Eleven

“What the hell?” Zaiden pushed his lover behind him and hurried across the parking lot to his vehicle. He stood there in shock, his mouth hanging open like a guppy as he shook his head in disbelief. Who the hell would have done such a thing?

“Seriously?” Asher growled as he stepped up beside him and dropped the bags to the concrete. “Is there something you need to tell me?” He crossed his arms over his chest and glared up at Zaiden.

Zaiden just continued to shake his head like an idiot. “I have no idea who did this.” He moved closer to his vehicles, running his fingertips over the words etched into the hood.

HE IS MINE! “Maybe it’s a jealous lover or something. Maybe they just got the wrong car,” Zaiden said hopefully. He might have teased Asher earlier, but he didn’t have any exes that would do something like this. Hell, he didn’t really have any exes at all. Which would explain why he kept fucking up with his mate left and right.

“Well, we need to call the police.”

“I don’t think there’s much they can do about this.”

“Probably not,” Asher agreed. “But your insurance company is

going to want to see a police report before they pay to have this fixed.”

Nodding like a bobble-head doll, Zaiden could think of nothing to say. Thank heavens one of them was working with a full deck. A sudden thought occurred to him, chilling his blood, and stealing the breath from his lungs. What if whoever did this had the right car, but wasn’t referring to him. What if someone wanted Asher?

Fear had him spinning on his heels and dragging his mate into his arms, crushing him close as he peppered kisses over the top of Asher’s head. He didn’t know if he loved the man yet, but he did know he was quickly on his way to not being able to live without him. He’d do whatever needed to be done to keep his mate safe. No one would take the man from him. No one.

Asher pushed away, staring up at him as though he’d lost his damn mind—which he probably had. “What is wrong with you? You’re shaking like a leaf.” Asher’s voice softened, and he placed his hand over Zaiden’s heart. “Your heart is beating so fast,” he whispered. “What’s wrong, big guy?”

Zaiden shook his head, trying his best imitation of a reassuring smile. “Nothing. Just a little shocked I guess. Nothing like this has ever happened to me before.”

“You are lying.” Asher glared at him. “Don’t lie to me, Zaiden. I’m not a child.”

Sighing heavily, Zaiden dropped his chin to his chest and reached up to rub the tension from the back of his neck. He didn’t want to sound paranoid, but maybe if he expressed his concerns, Asher could put his mind at ease.

“What if that message isn’t about me?”

“Yeah, you already said that. Like maybe your car just looks like someone else’s.”

“No.” Zaiden cupped Asher’s cheek in his palm as he stared into his amber eyes.
