“Yeah.Leo and I found our fated mate.Same woman, actually.A witch.”
Jimmy dropped his pliers in the dirt at his feet, cackled with laughter, then scooped them up again.“Not what I thought you were gonna say.But congrats.That’s great.You guys got your folks back, and your woman, all in a few weeks.”Jimmy whistled and shook his head as though he couldn’t believe it.
I couldn’t believe our luck most days, either.
“She’s actually the witch who broke the curse,” I said.
Jimmy’s head shot up.“Tania?The power lifter gym chick?”
I narrowed my eyes at him.“Yeah.Why?”
He glanced off to the side, then met my eyes again.“Word spread pretty fast about how good she is.I think there’s a few guys that have asked her for help.And I know Curt and Joe asked her out, too.”
A growl rose in my throat.“Tell them to back off.She’s ours.”
Jimmy put both hands up in surrender.“Will do, Mase.Just thought you should know.”
The sparky turned away and walked into the apartment block we were renovating.
I turned to my brother, whose eyes were flashing with the silver of his wolf.Seeing that was reassuring.We felt the same way about our mate, and knowing there were other men interested in her galled me no end.
“Don’t worry,” I told him, walking toward the entrance to the building.“We’ll fight off anyone who even tries.”
ChapterTwenty
TANIA
Iwas doing clean up and wiping down the lifting benches when Jessie ran over to me with a big grin on her face.“We just had another three new sign ups.Seriously, this has been our best month ever.Are you doing some sort of promo for hot guys that I don’t know about?”
I glanced up and took the sheet of paper she was shoving at me.Three new sign ups.All men.
“Are they all here?”I asked.
She nodded and her face lit up with a grin.“Yep.And they all want a tour.”She gestured to the men who were striding into the gym behind her.
They were all wolves, that was for sure.Huge, hulking, grinning, young wolf shifters.
“Hey, are you the owner?Tania?”The first guy spoke on behalf of the group.He had bright, sharp blue eyes and a friendly, easy-going smile.
“Yeah.That’s me,” I said, plastering on my professional smile.
These guys were gorgeous, but I wasn’t having the same reaction I did to Mason and Leo.The first day I’d seen them I’d practically melted into a puddle.
Maybe there is something to this mate thing after all.
“Can I help you?”I asked, pulling the clipboard to my chest as they looked me up and down in an assessing way.I was used to those looks.I was young to own a gym, and men liked to try and sum me up.
But the look on his face when his gaze reached my face once more, was different.He was… coming on to me.If I was reading the look correctly.
“Yes.You can.”He shot me a wicked grin.“Word around the pack is that you’re the best witch around.Can my friends and I chat about you helping us out?”
I narrowed my eyes.Mason and Leo better not have told everyone that I work any spell for a gym membership.That was a one-off deal for them because their cause was worthy.“Why did you join the gym already?I haven’t agreed to anything.”
He frowned like he was the confused one.“Mase and Leo said the gym was good, and the chicks here were big and strong.I like my women big.”
The grin he gave me had me wanting to groan, but I managed to keep it in.
“Well,” I began, “I’m not on the menu, if that’s what you’re looking for.”
