Chapter Twenty

“I can’t believe you talked me into this,” Shane grumbled as he cast a furtive glance around the café.

“We agreed my power would shoot us out of here if we got in trouble,” she pointed out from behind a large green and gold embossed menu. When he didn’t respond she repeated, “You agreed.”

“Temporary lapse in judgment.”

She lowered the menu to mock-glare at him. “Oh, stop grouching.”

“Can’t. It’s what I do.” Now where had that come from?

Apparently, Tieryn had the same thought because her eyebrows shot up before she laughed. The sweet sound of her humor washed over him like warm summer rain and the connection he felt with her tugged at him.

“Well…” She returned to her perusal of the menu. “I’m trying the beignets. What are you having?”

“Coffee.”

She closed the menu and laid it on the table with a thump. “You’re in New Orleans—one of the most fascinating cities in the world. It’s spring, the weather is glorious. Food is one of the attractions of the place, and you’re going to have”—she tipped her head—“coffee?”

He kept his eyes on her face, determined not to ogle her perfect breasts on display in the Saints t-shirt they’d bought this morning. They’d both been grateful to change into fresh jeans and t-shirts. Tieryn had insisted on buying ten pairs of underwear and several bras. “I’m remembering to take these with me everywhere,” she’d said.

He didn’t let himself think about that now. Instead, he focused on her face and the conversation. What had she just said? Oh yeah, his order. “Okay. I’ll get toast too.”

Tieryn muttered something. Maybe hopeless case.

Shane would have chuckled if he wasn’t busy scanning every person in the vicinity.

“You’re looking like a shifty spy. Relax, will you? You’d make a flea jump.” She rolled her eyes.

“Excuse me if I’m a tad cautious.”

She made an undignified noise.

He stared. “Was that a snort?”

She shrugged and gave him a grin. “If you can call yourself a tad cautious, I can snort.”

He squashed the strange sensation of delight, determined not to fall under the spell of her teasing. Shane had the strangest feeling he’d lost control of this conversation. Maybe he had the moment he’d agreed they could leave the hotel room.

Zac was sending a friend of Sarai’s to get them. A human by the sound of it. No one else could come because they were still dealing with the fallout from the attack. His friend hadn’t gone into detail, but Shane got the disturbing feeling that none of the news awaiting them when they got back would be good.

He hadn’t told Tieryn yet that all ten dares of the Shadowcat Nation were attacked simultaneously at the same time as the attack on the Kuharte meeting in Canada. He didn’t want to worry her, and her own dare had come out with only a few minor injuries.

The plan for getting them back relied on secrecy. The fact that the wolves had found them in Alaska hinted that someone with a supernatural gift was involved with the lions and their wolf allies.
