Chapter Twenty-Two
Sam finished making another pot of coffee and glanced outside where the sun was finally trying to make an appearance through the clouds. Bear and Flynn overwhelmed the sofa, coffee mugs in hand, staring at the fire.
Bear finally shrugged. âI donât know how to force the mating mark on a hand. I do know it can be done because you demons have had so many arranged matings through the centuries.â
Flynn nodded. âI think you just do it. Like imagine it, and then the thing appears.â He took a deep drink of his coffee. âIâm not comfortable forcing her to Fire Island, Sam. Before you get all insistent, let me remind you that humans who see the islandâ¦remain on the island. Weâre shrouded from the rest of the world on purpose, and if I take her there, sheâs staying.â
âShe wonât be human any longer,â Sam countered, pouring two mugs. âSheâll be a mate, and as the ruler of the supersecret island, you can make an exception.â Now that heâd made up his mind, his body was relaxed and his mind at peace. He and Honor had chemistry, and frankly, he couldnât get her out of his mind. She was smart, sexy, and resilient, and the image of her ducking, rolling, and then firing at those Kurjan soldiersâwithin seconds of finding out they existedâwas downright impressive. âUlric is going to be free soon. I know it, and my gut feeling is that you know it too, Flynn. If I die trying to kill him, then take Honor to the Realm, get her the virus to negate our mating bonds, and set her free.â The woman would make good use of immortality. His heart felt a pang at the realization that he most likely wouldnât be there to witness it.
âWhat if you donât die?â Bear drawled.
Sam sipped thoughtfully. âThen Iâll fetch her from Fire Island and figure things out. One problem at a time.â
She stomped out of the bedroom, wearing black jeans and a light yellow sweater. âYouâre calling me a problem?â She marched right up to him, fire in those spectacular eyes. âIâm not your problem, ace. We are not mating just because you say so. It isnât going to happen.â She punctuated her statement by poking him in the chest several times. Hard.
The female had misread him.
He grasped her neck, hauled her around until her butt hit the fridge, and then kissed her, not holding himself back. Everything he was, everything heâd endured, everything heâd ever be, poured right into her. She gasped, opening her mouth. He took advantage, diving in, not giving her a second of reprieve.
She whimpered deep in her throat, and he felt the vibrations through his chest, pressed against her. The small sound of surrender lit him on fire faster than any dimensional jump. Desperation to get closer clawed at him. He threaded his hand through her thick hair, loving how his fingers immediately became tangled.
No more holding back with her. Oh, he had let her see part of him before, but now it was everything.
