“You’re pretty sure of yourself,” she drawled.
“Are you any different? I can’t imagine you belittling your skills.”
“Fair point.” She placed her hands on her desk. “I need time to think on this. I don’t know what you usually do, but I don’t rush into things when something important hangs in the balance, if I can help it.”
“Just don’t wait too long. If you issue the challenge once they’re knocking on the front gate, it won’t be as surprising. It’ll be perceived as a panicked decision.”
She frowned and he couldn’t help but look at the cute creases again. The look really did diminish her badass appearance.
His dragon spoke up. We all have many sides to share.
Stop sounding like a bloody fortune cookie.
Teagan’s voice prevented his beast from replying. “Judging from your eyes, your dragon has a few words to say. Care to share?”
His beast chuckled. Tell her she’s gorgeous and clever and that I’d like to strip her naked before I—
No. Aaron focused back on Teagan. “He’s hoping you use my plan.”
“Is that so?” she drawled. “While I think you’re lying, it’s probably best I don’t know the truth since I’m familiar with what male dragons often think about.”
“Female dragons think the same, but just hide it better.”
Teagan’s pupils flashed. “Oh, believe me, you don’t want to know what she’s thinking.”
His own dragon chimed in. Invite her to shift, and we dragons can sort things out in dragon form.
Not going to happen, mate. Aaron said, “Can we focus back on the plan? Are you going to use it? I rather think it’s your best shot at putting the others in their places.”
She put a hand on her chest and feigned surprise. “It almost sounds as if you want me to win and put the males in their place. That can’t be right.”
The O shape of her mouth made him think of what she could do with those soft lips.
His dragon spoke again. Yes, like this.
His beast flashed a naked image of Teagan as
she swallowed his dick to the back of her throat.
It took everything he had to keep from choking, let alone keep his cock soft. Not wanting the distraction, he gave a warning. Do it again and I’m going to lock you up.
I only show what you try to hide.
Maybe he needed to find a female for a quick fuck to clear his head. A female like Teagan expected to be bedded and wooed, and he had no interest in the wooing.
Teagan’s voice cut through his thoughts. “Your dragon is fairly chatty.”
Aaron shrugged. “It happens. Now, with regards to wanting you to win, me and Bram already know who you are. Getting to know a new clan leader, especially one who might not want to form an alliance with Stonefire, would just make things difficult. I’m merely being practical.”
Her own eyes flashed, but it was brief. She answered, “I’ll talk with Killian and consider the pros and cons. For now, get some rest. Not only will you start your new duties this afternoon, but we’re also having a welcoming dinner in the great hall this evening in your honor.”
“Why are you saying that with a devious glint in your eyes?”
She tilted her head with a smile. “Oh, nothing. You’ll find out.”
He didn’t like the tone of her voice but knew she wouldn’t expand further. “Just know there’s little you can do to embarrass me.”
“Oh, is that so? I’ll keep that in mind.”
