They’ll know they’ll have to face a polar bear if they look at her. The Sheriff if they talk to her. And me if they touch her.

This girl is all mine and now she has the mark to prove it.

A couple of hours and a few ‘breaks’ later, we arrive back at our trailer. I have to get a bigger place for this girl. She deserves more than this old rust bucket.

“I’ll buy you a ranch,” I tell her as we walk hand in hand. “A big one where our little cubs can roam.”

“Little cubs?” she says, smiling as she looks up at me. “As in cubs, plural?”

“Oh yeah,” I say as I squeeze her hand. “I’m going to fill your womb with babies.”

“How many?”

“Enough to fill a ranch.”

She laughs. I shake my head. She thinks I’m kidding, but I’m not.

I’m never going to stop breeding this girl.

Not until her womb throws in the towel and even then I’ll continue drowning it in my cum just in case.

Ellie sucks in a short breath when she sees something on my property. My eyes are on her—they’re always on her—so, I quickly whip my head around and see what she’s looking at.

“Shit,” I curse under my breath.

I wasn’t expecting her to be here.

“Who’s that?” she asks, looking a little unsure.

I gulp. “That’s Kinsley. My daughter.”

Chapter Seven

Ellie

Kinsley looks so shocked to see her father holding my hand that I want to chuckle, but I don’t dare.

I slide my fingers out of his grasp out of respect. Austin is her father and I want to give her time to get used to the idea of us together. Especially considering we’re about the same age.

“So, you found the missing girl?” she asks as we arrive.

Austin grabs my hand back and holds it even tighter. “Better. I found my mate.”

She turns to me, forcing out a smile. “You must be Ellie.”

“And you must be Kinsley,” I say as I offer my hand with a genuine smile. “I heard a lot about you.”

She shakes my hand and the tightness in her eyes ease a bit. I’m sure this is not easy for her. To see her father with a new girl so quickly. Especially one that’s half his age.

“Are you okay?” she asks, looking genuinely concerned. “You went through a lot.”

“It’s been amazing,” I say as I look up at my new man. I feel like I’m exactly where I’m meant to be. By his side. “This has been the best day of my life.”

“I meant the kidnapping,” she says with a laugh.

“Oh,” I say and then we’re both laughing too. It’s been such a wild ride of emotions with Austin that I keep forgetting that I was kidnapped for four days. Being with him has been all-consuming.

“That’s okay,” Kinsley says as she smiles at me. “I have a bear shifter mate too. I know what it’s like.”

I smile in relief that she’s being so cool about this. I’m excited to get to know her better.

She looks up at her dad and smiles. “I’ve never seen you so happy,” she says. “Has he wiped that goofy grin off his face since he met you?”

“Nope,” I say, smiling up at him. “That’s how he looks now.”

“I can go back to scowling and brooding if that’s sexier,” Austin says to me with a grin.

“No,” Kinsley interrupts. “This is better. Much better.”

Austin brings us inside and puts on a pot of coffee as we all get comfortable.

“So, dad,” she says with a hint of worry on her face. “I didn’t see a police report filed. Everyone still thinks that Ellie is missing.”

He turns away with a sharp inhale. We’re both watching his huge back as he takes out three mugs.

“What’s up with that? Where did you find her?”

“The Copeland lions had her,” he says after a moment.

“And where are they now?”

He sighs. “Burning in hell I hope.”

I sneak a glance at Kinsley’s reaction and she looks a little stressed. Her face is all tight as she drops her eyes to the counter, probably wondering how to get her dad out of this mess.

“What if I tell everyone that I just ran away?” I offer.

Kinsley shakes her head. “We have witnesses saying they saw you get taken by four men on motorcycles.”

“That was nice of them to do nothing at the time,” I say with a roll of my eyes.

“Dad,” Kinsley says as he hands us our coffees. “I need to know what happened so we can figure this out.”

He tells her how he burnt down the shack with all four of their dead bodies inside.

“Well,” she says with a laugh as she cups her hands around the hot mug. “That’s not exactly protocol now is it?”

Austin shakes his head. “Not really. I just had to make them pay. I just had to have her to myself. I can’t explain it.”
