Most of what I knew was stuff they’d told me about mates.
Mainly, that dragons didn’t want them. Dragon shifters were only born male, and if they met their mate, their presence would send the woman into heat. If they could resist easing her heat through sex, they would make it out without sealing the mate bond.
No one ever resisted long enough, though.
I knew my brothers were dragon royalty. It had created contention in the thunder (the name for a pack of dragons) when they refused to let anyone else raise me after our parents died, and others had been trying to overthrow my brothers since. It hadn’t happened yet—but I was always nervous it would.
Anyway, the idea of being a part of a demon family that was basically royalty in their own right was a strange one. If the demons had their own leaders, I was confident the Villins would be among them.
Besides that, If I mated with Bash, I would never be alone again. Even if he and I were fighting, my best friends were mated to his brothers. We would be family in every way there was, permanently.
My heart swelled at the idea.
I wanted love, but shit, I ached for that stability.
We were still at our beginning… but maybe our beginning could be a mate bond.
We reachedthe cabin as the sun was going down, and Bash carried both of our bags inside. We were only planning on staying for a few days, but both of us could work remotely, so there was a chance we’d decide to make the trip a little longer.
“What are you doing?” I checked, following him and our bags into a bedroom on the far side of the massive, gorgeous cabin. It was away from the other three, one of which I’d assume I would stay in.
“Putting your stuff in my room. You’re sharing my bed while we’re here.”
I raised my eyebrows at his back. “I am?”
“Yes. You’ll be moving into my room when we get home, too.”
“Really? I don’t remember being asked about that.”
He set our bags down at the foot of the bed, then turned to face me. His hands landed on my hips, and he pulled me to his chest. My palms met his pecs, and my fingers pressed lightly against the thick muscles.
Damn, he felt good.
“Brynlee,” he said, his voice softening.
“Yes?”
“You’re moving into my room.” He captured my lips, his hands sliding around to grip my ass.
My fingers dug harder into his pecs, my body warming with his touch and attention.
My chest was rising and falling quickly when I finally made myself pull away. “That still wasn’t a request.”
He kissed me again, lightly. “No, it wasn’t.”
My lips curved upward just a little. I couldn’t stop the smile. “You’re supposed toaskme to move in with you, Bash.”
He heaved a sigh. “Will you share my room after I’ve moved your stuff in?”
That was close enough.
“Sure. Sounds like fun.”
He kissed me again.
Harder.
When he lifted me off my feet, I wrapped my legs around his ass, pinning his body to mine.
