“Hey,” he said, yawning. “Dani’s in the shower; she’ll be glad to see her bags.”

Kammie followed Row into the house. Adam shut the door behind them and led Row back to the master bedroom, watching as he dropped the bags on the bed and disappeared back into the front room. Adam closed the bedroom door and Dani came out of the bathroom, dropping the towel that had been tucked around her body, and unzipped a large suitcase.

The sight of her bare body made him growl, wanting to forget that they had company in the other room.

“Stop growling at me, you know how much I love that,” Dani said.

“Sorry, sweetheart.” Adam scrubbed his hands over his eyes and willed his wolf to calm down.

“You don’t have to apologize, but my brother and his new mate are waiting to talk to us and I’m pretty sure that neither of them are interested in hearing me scream your name.”

He chuckled. “I’ll keep my hands to myself.”

“Just until they take off.”

Dani dressed quickly in a pair of jeans and a thick sweater. He took her hand, and they walked together out to the front room.

“Thanks for bringing my clothes, Row,” Dani said.

Row tossed the truck keys to Adam, who placed them on the coffee table. “Have a seat. Are you guys hungry or thirsty?” he asked. Although he didn’t want anyone to interrupt his mating-moon with Dani, he wasn’t about to shove her brother out the door.

“We can’t stay. We need to check in with your alphas and pick up Kammie’s things from the woods,” Row said.

“Oh, okay,” Dani said as she plopped on the couch with Adam and snuggled close to him. He put his arm around her, loving how easily she fit against him. “Adam talked to Acksel this morning, but told him we wouldn’t be leaving the house anytime soon. We’re going to have dinner at his house on Monday night.”

Dani looked up at Adam, and he envisioned her naked and spread before him, her skin pinking as he brought her to climax again and again. Row grimaced and cleared his throat in a way that sounded suspiciously like a growl.

“Kammie and I haven’t discussed everything yet, but I’m planning to take her home so we can mate officially.”

“How weird is it that we both found our mates?” Dani smiled, not taking her gaze from Adam.

“Anyway,” Kammie said suddenly, “we’ll leave you guys alone.”

Row said, “You need to call Mom.”

“I will,” she said, glancing at her brother and then swiftly returning her gaze to Adam’s.

“Are you going to go meet your people?”

“I don’t think so,” Dani said, sighing quietly as she faced her brother. “Adam’s my family now. I know that Fayar would probably let us use the sacred cave, but I’d rather follow the pack’s traditions for mating since we’re going to be staying here.”

“Kammie and I will leave in a few days.”

“Be sure to call before you come over next time,” Adam said. Dani grinned at him.

Row growled in annoyance but said nothing. Dani stood quickly and went to hug each of them in turn. “Let me know when you’re heading home. I want to say goodbye.”

“We’re coming back here,” Row said. “This is Kammie’s home, and that means it’s mine now.”

“What about Mom?”

“She can come with us if she’d like, but she’s got her life in the sleuth.” Row kissed Dani on the cheek and gathered Kammie close, ushering her out the door.

“That’s interesting,” Dani said as she shut and locked the door.

“Because he wants to come back here to live?” Adam asked, closing the distance between them.

He slid his arms around her and pulled her close. She melted against him with a happy sigh. “Yeah. He was talking about taking a job training the young males in the sleuth when we got back from our trip to meet my people. But he found his mate, so maybe that changed his plans.”
