Chapter 15

“What are you doing here?” Blaze pushed back from his desk and stood up.

“Hello,” Torrent said. “It’s good to see you too.” He could feel that he was frowning.

“Save me the dramatics.” Blaze smiled. “Why aren’t you with your new bride?”

The male had spent too much time with human females. With one human female in particular. Blaze thought that the others hadn’t noticed just because his visits had dried up before they could call him out on it. It was the first time that Torrent wondered what had happened.

Bride.

Fuck!

“The female is not my mate. It was a false rumor. A misunderstanding.” He shifted from one foot to the other. A mistake! His chest tightened just thinking it. A stupid damned mistake.

His youngest brother, Storm, would be dropping her in Walton Springs right now. Good riddance.

Blaze raised his brows. “Oh! I had heard that you sealed the deal.”

He shook his head. “Nope. I sent the female home. We were not compatible.”

“Oh! That’s a shame.” Blaze looked amused.

“We didn’t rut.” He felt the need to set the record straight. “We were not compatible as people.”

“An even bigger shame.”

“I’m here to enquire about the dark haired human. I had my sights set on her from the start. It is probably the reason it didn’t work out with Candy.” Liar! The words almost stuck in his throat. They felt hollow. It felt like he was betraying his female.

No!

Not his.

Candy left him. She left. It wasn’t his fault. Not at all. That wasn’t entirely true. The same voice that had tried to stop him earlier began to shout at him. It called him choice names. He pushed it down and drowned out the pesky droning. “I heard that your brother has not yet mated her.”

“No, but he seems to like her.” The fire king looked thoughtful.

“I want her,” he blurted. Torrent had called Ocean to his chamber as soon as Candy had left but the female did nothing for him. Absolutely nothing. She’d stood before him naked and his body hadn’t so much as stirred. He’d apologized to her and had sent her away. He’d felt like the biggest prick. No! It wasn’t his fault. It wasn’t.

It was simple, he needed a human replacement. The dark haired one. The one he had wanted in the first place. It was simple!

“I don’t know.” Blaze rubbed at the stubble on his chin, he was deep in thought.

Interesting, the male was considering it. “Surely they would be mated by now if she was the right one for him? All of the other females are mated. I sent mine back… after all this time, we should have been mated as well but we were not compatible.” He almost stumbled over his words. “It is the same with this human and Coal. They don’t belong together. You know I am right.”

Blaze nodded. “I must admit that I am concerned. You need to know that she”—the male stopped talking— “you might be right.” His whole demeanor changed. “Why the hell not? Do you agree to forfeit the next hunt if I give her to you?”

“Yes.
