Once the toast lined her stomach, Toni felt the gnawing ache that had only just crept up on her dissipate. She hadn’t woken up starved, more like desperate for coffee, but once her taste buds had started salivating at what could only be homemade jam—a jam-making MC, who’d a thunk it?—she felt the hunger beat at her with heavy fists. She buttered more toast, eating it like she hadn’t eaten in days, which she guessed she hadn’t.

Grizzly frowned at her and said, “Jesus, and I thought Christie could eat.”

“Hey!” came the immediate complaint. “I’m pregnant. I’m eating for two. Plus, whatever I put down usually comes back up again an hour later, so I have to stuff my face.”

Toni grimaced. “Yeah, it doesn’t work that way, Christie. Feasting like that won’t do you any favors.”

“You’re on his side?” she asked with a pout and then spoiled it by taking a huge bite out of her impromptu breakfast.

“I’m on no one’s side; I just want you to feel better that’s all.” Toni tried to keep her tone sensible, but probably spoiling it by being unable to hide her smile.

Christie nudged her with her elbow. “I knew I liked you. And you’re not telling me anything I haven’t heard before. Mundo tries to stop me, but I get so hungry, and then booom. I can’t keep anything down.”

“I know.” She patted the other woman’s shoulder. “We’ll try to medicate it and keep it in line.”

Grizzly pursed his lips. “Well, I’m glad someone can talk some sense into her, but it looks like you’re in need of taking in hand too, doc. You need more for breakfast than just bread. What can I make you?”

Toni blinked in surprise. “How did you know I’m a doctor?”

“Aside from the fact you’re talking about medicating a stranger, you mean?” he asked, brows raised until she nodded, flushing all the while. “It’s all around the clubhouse. Talk gets around here. And you, you’re top of the list of things to talk about.”

“Yeah, and they say women are the gossipers. Never mind bears. They’re like a bunch of wing-flapping chickens,” Christie stated with relish, enjoying Grizzly’s moue of annoyance.

Toni hid her smile. His reaction confirmed that both she and Christie could say whatever the hell they wanted and all with a free ride. This ‘mate’ card business seemed to be like a ‘get out of a jail free’ one too. Not that she intended on exploring how far the Shifters would let them take their teasing. Goading men who turned into bears seemed churlish to Toni.

Grizzly let out a small growl, but Christie just snorted, ignoring his little burst of temper. “Mates are our lifeblood, Christie. Even if they eat us out of house and home.”

His pointed remark had Christie sputtering. Deciding to throw down an olive branch, because war on an empty stomach was never that great an idea, Toni murmured quickly, “Put any group together for long enough, and they all gossip. But yeah, I’m a doctor, and I am starving.
