Chapter Seven
Closing his hand over hers, Bas led Jenna back out into the bar area. He seated her at a table and excused himself.
Moving to the bar, he got himself a beer and Jenna an orange juice. She still looked very pale to him. Dark circles and worry lines marred her pretty face. Nic was one lucky bastard. Bas smelled the sex lingering on her skin, and felt a moment of surprise when his cock stirred.
It had been years since he’d felt even a tingle of sexual awareness. He frowned.
Fuck, it had been decades since he’d really wanted to get laid. Something about Nic’s little mate stirred him up, though. Probably just his connection to Nic. By sharing blood, they’d become closer than friends, closer even than brothers. Bas was certain that his odd, out-of-character attraction to Jenna was just a residual effect of his bond with Nic.
Besides, though Bas had always been an equal opportunity lover, his usual preference was usually a good bit harder, broader, and less female than Nic’s pretty little One.
He moved back to the table and set the glass down in front of her. She picked it up, wrinkling her nose.
“I would rather have what you’re having.”
“I’m sure you would, but your body is still healing.”
“How do you know that? I feel fine.” She sulked, taking a sip of the juice.
Bas touched the side of his nose. “You’ll find that most of us have exceptional noses.
Some stronger than others, but we can pick up most things.” His chuckled when his comment brought a flush to her cheeks. His fangs elongated.
Holy Hell, he was flirting with her! More incredible still, he was aroused by her. Bas hadn’t been with a woman in over a hundred years, or with a man in half that time. Shit, if Nic ever recognized Bas’s infatuation with Jenna, he’d kill him. The only reason he trusted Bas with her at all was because he’d been celibate for so long, and when he hadn’t been, Nic knew he preferred men.
“You’re Vampire as well?” she asked when she spied the fangs.
“Yep.”
“And Aidan?”
Bas shook his head. “No, our pompous Brit is a Dragon.” Jenna leaned forward, the fight going on down the hall momentarily forgotten.
“Damn. I knew that. I thought they only lived in Europe. I didn’t know there were any in the U.S. My father would love to get his hands on a Were-Dragon.”
“It’s true most live abroad,” Bas explained, glad for the distraction from the low musky scent of the sex she and Nic had just shared. “But more and more of the clans have been coming to America in recent years.”
Another roar blew through the halls of the bar. The worry on Jenna’s face had Bas reaching over to clasp her fingers. Her warmth seeped into his skin. He wanted to pull his hand back and press it to his mouth, but refused to, continuing to hold her hand.
“They’ll be all right, pretty One. This isn’t the first time they’ve disagreed, and I’m quite sure it won’t be the last.
