Lowering his head, he nipped her bottom lip and murmured, “For a human, you’re demanding.”
She nipped him back. “I rather have to be if I want to keep up with you.”
Kai was about to kiss her again when a male cleared his throat and broke the spell. Kai snarled as he looked up to see Bram. “Everyone’s fine. Aaron can give you the report. I’m busy.”
Bram chuckled. “I see that, Kai. If you’re not careful, you’ll be walking home with a hard cock.”
Jane nuzzled his chest and it helped calm Kai. As he held Jane in his arms, Kai answered Bram, “The DDA can tell Evie the specifics of the capture near the lake. Much like they did on Lochguard’s border, they smoked the human knights out of the forest with special tear-gas canisters.”
Jane touched Kai’s jaw. “I wish that was the end of it.”
Kai frowned down at Jane. “What are you talking about?”
Jane filled him in on Arabella’s report and he grunted. “We’ll just have to up our security and ensure you never leave Stonefire without an escort.”
Jane opened her mouth, but Bram beat her to the reply. “He’s right, Jane. If they ever find out you were the reason we set them up to be captured, they’ll be out for your blood.”
Kai hugged Jane tighter against his body. “I will protect her.”
Bram clapped Kai’s bicep. “Aye, I know you will, Kai.” His clan leader motioned with his head. “Enjoy Jane for a little while and then come debrief me the rest.”
Jane spoke up. “Is anyone going to ask me?”
The corner of Kai’s mouth ticked up. “No. Your next hour is mine.”
His human tilted her head. “And I suppose we’ll spend that hour touring the clan’s lands?”
Kai growled. “No. You’re going to spend it in my bed.”
Even though Jane’s eyes flashed with heat, she tried to frown. “How about if you shout it to the wind? I don’t think the dragon-shifters on the other side of the landing area heard you.”
Kai raised his voice. “Jane Hartley, I’m taking you home, stripping you, and plan to make you scream.”
Jane’s cheeks flushed pink. “Stop it.”
Bram laughed and Evie walked over to join them. “What’s so funny?”
Hugging Evie to his side, Bram shook his head. “Nothing, love. I’ll explain it later.” Bram met Kai’s eyes again. “Go, but keep your mobile phone nearby. I’ll talk to Aaron and the others, but if I need to reach you, you’d better bloody well pick up. I don’t care what you’re doing. Understand?”
Kai grunted. “Fine.”
Evie jumped in. “I would almost say you’re pouting Kai.”
Jane lifted her head and looked to Evie. “He does it all the time with me. It really destroys the badass image he has going on.”
Since Jane and Evie would conspire against him until it grew dark and the moon rose, Kai adjusted his grip and lifted Jane over his shoulder.
His female squeaked. “I thought we talked about this.”
“That’s the problem. Too much talking.” He lifted a hand. “Bye Bram. Evie.”
As Kai raced toward his cottage, he ignored the people staring or Jane’s protests over his shoulder. He wanted his female and he wanted her now.
Chapter Four
After about thirty seconds, Jane stopped protesting and tried to think of how she’d get her revenge on Kai. Each step he jogged jarred his shoulder against her stomach. He had payback coming his way.
But since she couldn’t do anything about it until he put her down, Jane reveled in the feel of Kai’s hard muscles under her body and took a deep inhalation of his musky male scent.
