Chapter 20

Magnar heard Claire snore softly. She was using her arms as a pillow. Her fingers were stuck in the butter dish. He found himself hoping she didn’t need to scratch her nose.

“Why are you smiling?” Ekon asked. “This is a disaster. The human fell asleep while I was talking to her.”

Magnar bit down on his lower lip to keep himself from laughing. “I warned you that she was tired. I told you it would be better to wait. You insisted on meeting her tonight.”

Ekon glowered as he stared down at her. His arms were folded across his chest. He looked tense and unhappy. Magnar couldn’t really blame him. He would feel the same if a female fell asleep on him during dinner. Then again, chances were good Claire would have fallen asleep with him as well if she’d been dining with him instead. She was really that tired. “Don’t take it so badly. It’s not you. It’s the situation.”

“I don’t think she likes me.” Ekon shook his head.

“You haven’t given it much chance.”

Ekon frowned. “Are you sure Leukos has feelings for this human?”

“Yes.” Magnar scratched his chin. “You know how close he is to declaring war. He’s fucked off you took her. That wouldn’t be the case if he didn’t give a shit.”

Ekon kept his eyes on Claire, who chose that moment to give a bigger snore. She licked her lips and made a cute moaning noise.

“You were right. She’s intelligent.”

“I told you.” Magnar nodded. He allowed his eyes to dip down to where her dress rode up on her thighs. “And sexy as fuck!”

“She’s okay…I suppose.” Ekon didn’t look so sure.

“What do you mean? Look at her.” Magnar held out a hand in Claire’s direction.

“She is tall for a human. The female has a decent length torso and should be capable of carrying my eggs.” He looked…bored. How could Ekon be bored?

“Don’t get ahead of yourself, Ekon. I warned you of making that mistake.” He sighed. “Yes, her torso is a good length.” She had lovely long legs too and such lush thighs.

“Her torso is okay…I suppose. Esla had a…”

“Don’t do that. You can’t compare the two.”

“You’re right I can’t, because they are not comparable.” Ekon paced away. “My Esla was the most beautiful female. No other will compare to her.” He shook his head. “I find it hard to believe Leukos is taken with this one. Her hair is…it’s—”

“Her name is Claire.” There was an edge to his voice. Magnar didn’t like the way Ekon was talking about Claire. He didn’t like it one bit. He’d talked her into meeting Ekon. Had it been a mistake? “Her hair is golden blond. I thought gold was your favorite color.”

“Not for hair.” He grimaced.

“I take it that darker hair is more to your liking?”

His eyes lit up. “Exactly right.”

Magnar had to stop himself from rolling his eyes. It seemed that Ekon wanted a female who replicated his deceased mate.

“I find it hard to believe he is taken with…Claire,” Ekon muttered to himself.
