Chapter 3

Duke couldn’t believe his luck. Lexie was amazing. He drove as fast as he dared back to his house. His body was tight with anticipation for the woman who sat quietly in the passenger seat. He could feel her staring at him, and he could smell her excitement for what she knew was to come.

“What time do you have to be at work tomorrow?” He wanted to tell her she didn’t have to go, that he would provide for her, but if he’d learned one thing about her tonight it was that she was reliable and not one to just drop responsibilities, even work.

He glanced over at her and she blushed. “I meant what I said earlier, you wolves are very persuasive and hold power. I received a call not long after arriving home from the beach that I have tomorrow, Friday, and Monday off. I have no idea how you shifters did it. My boss is an arsehole.”

Duke grinned. He could just imagine how Kane and the other Wolfens had convinced her boss. Duke had spoken to Kane when he got back from the beach and told him the good news of Lexie being his mate. Kane had told him Lexie’s boss was a douche and he and his brothers would deal with him if Duke needed help. “We have our ways. So does that mean you have five days off work?”

“Yeah. I don’t work weekends. I’m full time, so it’s cheaper to hire me during the week. So I have an extended, long weekend.” She smiled as he parked the car. “I still want to help out with my brothers. You don’t have to come with me if you don’t want to.”

Turning off the car, he looked at her. “Of course I’ll come with you. I’m eager to meet your family. They’re my family now too.” He got out of the car and walked around to her side, but Lexie opened her door before he could do it for her.

She beamed at him as she got out of the car. He walked to the front door and opened it, waiting for her to follow. She paused at the door, gazing up at him. “I’m happy you feel that way. They mean everything to me, and I can’t wait for you to meet them .”

They walked into the house, and he shut the door behind them. Placing his keys on the entry table, he ushered her down the hall, showing her the lounge room and pointing out the first small bedroom and the second one next to it. Duke entered the kitchen with Lexie following. He didn’t know if he should show her the house or just do what he had been anticipating and wanted from the first moment he saw her—claim her, body, mind, and soul.

Duke could smell Lexie as she followed behind him. Her scent called to him, and it only got stronger. On a loud groan, he gave in to his need and spun, grabbing his mate around the waist and pulling her to him.
