“Yes.”
“How did you think this half-formed, ridiculous plan of yours was going to work?”
She shrugs. “I was in the midst of hiring a team of mercenaries to take him out.”
I shake my head. She is young yet, there is still much for her to learn. I am here to help her.
“There is no need. I will take care of this asshole myself.”
“I don’t need you to take care of this. I can take care of it myself.”
“You are indeed a bold, powerful female. But we are now a team. You do not have to do this alone. We are now family.”
Her eyes widen. “Family?”
“You must now put me in the same category as your mother and your cat. You will protect all of us and we will protect you.”
She continues to stare at me, the wheels in her head spinning.
“This is because you are also a mother now, carrying our offspring,” I clarify. “You will need to include our infant in your circle of trust and family. As I said, this is no longer about you.”
Her chin drops and she places a hand over her lower stomach. “A baby? Already? How can you know before me?”
“I can scent the additional pheromone trail.” I place a finger under chin and meet her troubled eyes. “You knew that I was breeding you. You knew that I was giving you my seed, unprotected in order to see you swollen with my offspring. This is the whole point of a Voltare mating. You agreed to becoming a mother.”
Her lips purse. “I thought I’d have more time to defeat my enemies.”
“You wanted to make sure you were beyond danger before bringing a child into your world?”
She gives a curt nod.
“I can respect that but this is where I come in. I will make sure there is no danger. I am impressed at how far you progressed with your plans of accountability and retribution, considering how young you are and the fact that you’re only human.”
“Thank you?”
“But I will take it from here. I will finish this for you.”
She takes my hand. “We will finish it together.
I invite her stepfather,a weak human male named Ezra Wilson, to my domicile. This is under the guise of meeting with my new family. He brings along Posey’s mother too.
I will kill this male, thereby ensuring my female’s safety as well as the safety of her mother.
We wait in the front room for their vehicle to arrive. Meanwhile, Posey shows me more evidence of her stepfather’s treachery.
I am having difficulty seeing what she sees. “Are you certain something is wrong? Your mother appears happy in that picture.”
“That’s how I know something’s wrong. My mother smiles too much nowadays. It’s creepy.”
“Maybe she is truly happy.”
“No.”
“Do you think she is in immediate danger?”
“I’m uncertain. They’ve been married for the last five years…”
“For five years? He’s had plenty of time to harm her by now. Maybe he truly cares for her. There’s the possibility that he first mated her for nefarious reasons but then fell in love with her.”
