Kiera stood. “If everyone will come to the kitchen, I have a small spread and drinks set out. You’re welcome to help yourselves.”

A few murmured their appreciation for her thoughtfulness and everyone slowly walked to the kitchen. Gabriel and Kiera followed behind.

Pulling his wife close, Gabriel kissed the top of her head. “We’ll get it all figured out, honey. One way or another, I’ll keep you safe.”

Kiera looked up at him with troubled eyes. “Don’t make promises you can’t keep, Gabriel. I know you mean well, but right now, none of us are equipped to handle a vampire. If he were to show up right now, there wouldn’t be anything you could do to stop him from taking me.”

Gabriel growled softly. “You better damn well believe that I would try! I may not be as fast as he is and possibly not as strong, but he wouldn’t walk out of here with you without a fight on his hands.”

Kiera caressed his cheek. “That’s what worries me the most. If he’s going to come and take me, the last thing I want is for you to be injured or worse. You have a pack and family to consider. Promise me you won’t do anything foolish.”

He shook his head. “I can’t promise that, Kiera. You’re my mate, my wife… I can’t promise that I won’t fight for you if it comes down to that.”

Kiera realized he hadn’t mentioned love anywhere in his little speech. At least he cared enough to want to save her, even if she thought he shouldn’t. “I just don’t want to see you hurt, or worse, dead.”

“And that’s how I feel about you; it’s why I can’t make that promise. Do you think I want to see you at his mercy; unable to do anything to stop him for torturing you or killing you?”

Kiera sighed. “I guess we’ll have to call it a draw. You aren’t going to get what you want and I won’t get what I want.”

“Hopefully we’ll both get what we want; don’t underestimate that group in there,” he said with a nod toward the kitchen.

She nodded and wrapped her arms around him. “I won’t. Now let’s go join them before they start wondering what we’re up to.”

He smiled. “I’m sure my cousins and brothers are already speculating.”
