Chapter Nine

Bash woke with a start, sitting up rapidly. His heart pounded in his chest and he looked around with a wild expression in his eyes, ready to defend Lily to the death. But there was no one there. The only sound was the chirping of birds and the rustle of leaves above his head. It must’ve been just about mid day, because the sun was directly above his head, filtering down through the trees to leave beautiful patterns of light on the forest floor. Lily stirred and looked over at him. His sudden movement had woken her.

“Bash?” she said sleepily. “Everything okay?”

Bash smiled down at her. “Yeah, I just was having a weird dream. Everything’s fine.”

Lily nodded and closed her eyes again, stretching her arms high above her head and smiling. She looked so peaceful and happy, and Bash felt his heart twist. He wanted her to always feel that way—happy safe and secure. He could hardly believe what had happened between them hours earlier. He hadn’t intended to mate with her. He’d just been frustrated with her and her timid attitude, when he knew she had so much more within her. But then, after he’d gone off on her, he’d expected her to either crumple into tears like most women would have, or to be more angry at him. But she had seemed to actually respond to his words. One thing led to another, and the sparks that flew between them had been electrifying. Bash had never felt anything like it before, and as soon as they mated he had felt that telltale warmth within the very core of his being. He knew she was his lifemate. Destiny had brought them together in such a weird twist of events and circumstances, and he knew that, no matter what happened with humanity, or the bear flu, or even his own clan, he would never let her go. Speaking of his clan, he needed to find a way to communicate with them. He needed to figure out exactly where he was and get back in touch with the others. He wouldn’t even entertain the possibility that something had happened to them. Honestly, he wasn’t that worried. He would love to see hear from them just to verify that they were okay, but he knew they were experienced, savvy fighters. They’d also had a good escape vehicle. As long as they hadn’t taken too bad of a hit, they should be fine. In fact, they might’ve made it to the second hideout.

Bash looked over at his crashed hover. The thing was a piece of junk now. Thankfully, it’s safety system had worked well and kept him and Lily mostly okay during the crash landing. They both had a couple bruises, and she had been knocked out. But other than that, there was really no harm done. Lily stretched again, then opened her eyes and looked over at Bash.

“Hey you,” she said, smiling sultrily.

Bash smiled back. “Hey, yourself,” he said. He would’ve loved to kiss her and make love to her again right then, but they had to get moving.
