DONOVAN
Once I’d helped Savannah out of the tub, helped her dress, and got some food into her, I could settle. Her coloring had returned, even if her eyes were heavy, ready for sleep.
I helped her to my bedroom.Our bedroom.Helped her get naked, her mumbling in agreement that sleeping with nothing was something she would have to get used to, and tucked her in, watching her rest. She’d agreed to move in with me. She’d let me claim her. She was my mate.
She’d also had a vision of herself, pregnant with my child. I’d done well not to howl to the goddamn skies when she’d confessed that to me. My wolf was a pushy fucker. He wanted more: a ring on her finger, my seed in her belly. And the man in me wasn’t far behind. But I’d pushed her enough already. The rest could wait until the time was right.
Finally, I fell asleep, more content than I’d ever known.
Dawn came.
I woke before Savannah, hungry for a taste. Finding a nipple, I slipped it into my mouth, cupping her breath as I suckled and tasted.
She moaned, half-asleep as I nudged her legs apart and slipped inside her.
Her arms wrapped around my neck, and I fucked her until she screamed my name and milked me dry.
Fuck, I could get used to this.
It took all the willpower I had to get out of bed so we could get ready for the onslaught of Emily who wanted to prepare the cabin for the celebrations.
A knock on the door and introduction later, I became the coward and left Savannah with Emily so I could meet up with my brothers. But Emily was an easy woman to love, sweeping into the cabin with hugs and millions of ideas of what she wanted to do to get it ready. Savannah was laughing when I snuck off, so I took advantage.
Emily’s husband and a couple of others from town had begun setting up the tables on my land. I helped him with a few while waiting for the others.
Kyran arrived with Max not long after. Max had finally got in after dealing with his pack so he could leave them to stay over for the celebrations.
Kyran looked well considering he’d got on Grace’s bad side by manhandling her out of the bar last night.
“How’s your ears today?” I asked, approaching them and leaving Frank and the others to it.
“My ears are fine.” Kyran cringed. “She’s not speaking to me though. I don’t know what’s worse.”
“Hey. She could have cut your balls off. Be grateful.” I turned to Max, greeting him with a brief embrace. “Hey, Max.” He was tall and built like a damn pro wrestler in a tailored suit and long black hair to his shoulders. Even as the season crept toward the peak of summer, he still wore a suit.
I needed to keep an eye on Savannah with Max in the vicinity. Many women, and a few men, gawked when he was around, and Max lapped it up, turning up the charm on anyone who didn’t fall at his feet.
“Kyran fill you in?” I asked him.
“Yeah,” Max replied. “Grace gave me a warm welcome and iced him out completely. It was hilarious.”
We laughed, and Kyran scowled. “You deserved it, brother.”
And he knew it.
Max gave him some wisdom. “If you’re going to tear a beautiful woman from other men, slinging her over your shoulder like a damn caveman, then at least have the decency to fuck her good and proper, giving her a night she’ll never forget, rather than just dumping her on her doorstep and saying goodnight.”
I raised an eyebrow at Kyran. “You didn’t?”
“What else was I supposed to do?”
“See her in? At least make her coffee? Explain why you acted like such a dick?”
“What made you a pussy all of a sudden?” He frowned at my righteous advice.
I smirked, crossing my arms across my chest.
