They sat around and chatted, and Bex admitted that she wasn’t ready to meet her match before, but since all her friends were pairing off, she might consider it now.

Gia smiled. “I haven’t seen an incubus before. What do they look like?”

Bex snorted, “Like everywhere they walk, women drop their panties to make them a path. At least the one I saw was that combination of beauty and fitness model, with the personality of a hungry vampire.”

They were still chatting when there was a knock on the door.

Elly smiled and hugged everyone. “Sorry. It’s midnight.”

Bex grinned. “Going to see if the slipper fits?”

“Think less slipper and more... me.”

The ladies laughed and wished her well.

Eliana opened the door, and Mano was standing there. “You owe me five minutes.”

She grinned. “You have infringed far more on Nalu’s time today.”

“Good point. So, my place or your place?”

“It’s the same place.”

He chuckled as they walked. “Isn’t that convenient?”

“Oh, very.”

Up the path and in the shadows, a horse was waiting next to the guard gate. She chuckled as Mano lifted her up and onto the horse then vaulted up behind that. The man holding the horse grinned and let the reins go, and they were off.

The side of her neck tingled, her body ached, and she was held against him. The marks from the other guys were pulsing, and her skin was repairing rapidly. She muttered, “I need Nalu.”

“Why?”

She chuckled. “He’s like a cold compress everywhere.”

Mano sighed. “Sorry. I couldn’t stop. You are just so warm, wet, and perfect.”

She sighed. “I think that is the problem. Just a little too long, and I am not used to having anything back there, so it was too much. However, it started off amazing. Some of the middle bits were a rush, but I was just so tired by the time you called a halt. You are an enthusiastic dude, aren’t you?”

He laughed and licked her new mark. “A mate of my own. I might have overdone it.”

She looked back at him. “What time is it?”

“Dunno. Noon?” He smiled against her skin. He sighed. “We need to make a restaurant reservation in the city so you can meet all of our parents.”

She froze. “Oh, shoot. At some point, I am going to have to either bring my parents and...” She grunted, “My sister and her husband here.”

“Syar will help with that. I honestly think that he is enjoying the hell out of this.”

“What?”

“Actually, having alphas with mates around, and he is loving having a mate of his own.” Mano lifted her hand and kissed it. She sighed. “I look forward to spending time with you once the frenzy has worn off.”

He chuckled. “As do I.”

His arms were wrapped around her, and she yawned. “Well, that confirms one myth.”

He kissed her ear. “What?”
