Thomas

We should be with our mate.

Thomas agreed wholeheartedly with his dragon, but he also had a job to do. And he’d promised to give Joel space to think about things.

His mind kept going back to last night and the way Joel had felt in his arms. How good he’d tasted, how wonderful he’d smelled, and how sweet his moans had been…. He’d never been happier than waking up that morning with Joel in his bed. It had felt right, like his whole life had led up to this moment.

Then he’d nearly ruined everything during breakfast. Joel hadn’t even eaten anything. Thomas hoped he had something to eat at home.

“Thomas? What do you think?”

“About what?” He looked up from the papers in front of him. “Sorry, where were we?”

Theresa shook her head while Barry and Karen exchanged looks. Across the table, Scott sighed and Alexandra was outright glaring at him. Louis sat back, a smile on his face.

“Theresa’s point about bug shifters,” Louis said. “Same as when you zoned out five minutes ago.”

“Stop calling them bugs, Louis. They’re insects,” Theresa told him. “And they have a point that they’re not being represented on the council right now.”

“Because there are hardly any of them in the district anyway!” Louis argued. “There’s what, one family of butterfly shifters or something? And we have that one spider shifter guy, and that’s it.”

“Spiders aren’t insects,” Barry said.

“That’s not the point,” Louis insisted. “The point is—”

“I think you could at least do him that courtesy, even if he’s the only spider shifter in the district.”

“This isn’t about the Andersons, Louis. We have more insect shifters in the district,” Theresa told him. “Which you’d know if you actually read the reports.”

“Do you have any idea how much I already have to read from the wolf shifters?”

Thomas sighed as Theresa and Louis bickered. He had to do something. “Everybody, quiet. Now.”

Even Louis closed his mouth.

“Louis, I know there are a lot of wolf shifters in the district, but you’re on the council. You can’t just focus on them. You’re here for all the shifters in the district. And yes, that means keeping up with the reports,” Thomas told him. He turned to Theresa. “If there are shifters who don’t feel represented by the council, I can look into it, but we’re not adding more members to the council. Six should be enough. We have had more insect shifters moving here over the past few years and Barry is stepping down…” He paused to look at the older owl shifter. “In a couple of months, right?”

“Five,” Barry replied. “But I don’t know about giving my seat away to the insects.”

“We won’t give your seat away. We don’t even know if there are suitable candidates who are insect shifters. I’d have to look at the numbers and talk to them. Theresa, can you email me the contact information of the insect shifters you’ve been talking to? I need to know what’s going on. Maybe it’s as simple as a few recent decisions we’ve made that don’t work for them and now they feel ignored and left out.
