“And pretty soon, you’ll have another close friend.”
I looked in Clement’s direction. His eyes seemed to fix on Luca and Salvatore. I raised a brow. He turned to face me, but all he did was tap the side of his nose.Hmmm, I wonder…I eyed the brothers with speculation.
“What was that all about?” Antoine asked.
“Nothing to worry about,” I assured him.
ChapterTwenty-Two
Antoine
Iwondered what Clement had spoken to Donna about but knew better than to ask. Whatever it was, it had left my mate thoughtful.
“Here,” I said, handing her a glass of prosecco. “This should calm your nerves.”
She grabbed it and drank it in one go. “Thanks, I needed that.”
“Shall I just get you the bottle?” I quirked a brow at her.
She laughed. “Nah. But maybe one day I can drink prosecco from your fit body.”
“Donna, are you really trying to give me a hard-on in a room full of supernatural creatures?”
“Oh, so you’re not hard already?” she asked in an innocent voice.
“God, I wish we could get out of here,” I groaned.
“Come on, Donna. Let’s dance.” Jeanie grabbed her hand and led her onto the dancefloor where they danced with Lilah and Isabella.
Lilah seemed to be in a little discomfort. Perhaps because she was also on continual watch, who knew?
“Hey, gorgeous. Want some fun while your mate’s busy?”
I felt a hand squeeze my ass and I turned to face a woman I knew well. We’d had fun in the past. She was still a vampire.
“Sorry, Rose, but I’m off limits. I’m mated to Donna now.”
She looked in Donna’s direction. “What hasshegot that I haven’t?” Rose sulked.
Donna chose that moment to approach. “I’ve got Antoine, that’s what. Now, why don’t you go and find yourself someone unmated to flirt with.”
“What if I don’t want to?” Rose countered.
Donna let her fangs appear and got up in Rose’s face. “Well, Rose, if you don’t want to get up close and personal with a full-blown Hybrid to find out, may I suggest you move your ass and find another guy.”
The warning in Donna’s words was clear. Rose looked once more at me with regret and moved on. Donna let her fangs disappear and eyed me hotly.
“You’re mine.Mymate. No one else can have you.”
The possession in her words made my dick go half-mast, and I tried to readjust myself. “It’s so hot when you get possessive.”
“Good. And later, when we’re on our own, I’ll show you exactly how possessive I can be.” She placed a chaste kiss on my cheek and went back to dancing like nothing had happened.
“I like her,” Clement said with admiration. “She’s a perfect mate for you, Antoine. And I have no doubt in my mind that you willneverhave a dull moment with her.” He clapped my back and walked away laughing.
