“Learn in a safer way or make sure I’m around to catch you when you fall.”
I smirked. “I can do that.”
“Youwilldo that.”
My eyes rolled playfully. “Iwilldo that.”
“Good.”
“What did Laz say about Zion? He checked in today?”
Xander tensed. His relationship with Zion was complicated at the moment. They weren’t at odds, but Zion wasn’t keeping in touch with Xander as much as he was Laz. They all assumed it was because of the awkwardness of Xander having been with Keerah, who Zion had been hunting for the past two months, but it wasn’t Xander’s fault. He didn’t know.
Laz told Zion to be grateful Xanderhadbeen with her or he might have never known she belonged to him. Wolves were prideful, cocky and ego driven. The brothers were always in competition. no matter how much they loved each other. So the two realities were not helping the situation. Zion’s way of handling things hurt Xander but he understood. Zion was his little brother and Xander loved him regardless, but his avoidance hurt.
“He’s in Canada. Caught her scent and found a traveling pack that said she spent a few weeks with them before she disappeared again.”
“But he’s okay?”
Xander nodded stiffly. I felt his discomfort. “He’s fine. I just wish he would bring his ass home.”
“He will, when he finds her.”
“And if he doesn’t?”
“I don’t know but if it were me, would you stop looking?”
His expression was tight. “Fuck no.”
“Then be understanding.”
Xander released a sigh. “I am.” He raked a hand over his face. “I just hate this shit and it reminds me…”
“Of how we felt whenyouwere gone.”
“Yeah…”
“This is different,” I said softly and he gently gripped my neck, tilting my head back.
“Don’t go back to that. We’re good now.”
I smiled when he kissed me. “We are.”
“Let’s go. Jo sent me to get you because she’s almost done cooking. We should go eat.”
“Or we could stay up here a little longer and I could show you another magic trick I learned.” I reached for his jeans and tugged at his belt. “But it’s with my mouth and not my magic.Although, from what I’ve read, it can be very magical foryou.”
He groaned under his breath but didn’t stop me. I knew he wouldn’t just like he knew I wouldn’t disappoint.
Fuck I love you. – Xander
You better because this is a really amazing trick. – Me
I loved this man with my whole heart and I was about to show him that love in a very physical way, with my tongue.
