“Fair enough. I am going to have to arrange some kind of bodyguard for myself. That sucks.”

Loki looked at her and then hung his head. “I wasn’t thinking.”

“Dude, I should not have been in your thoughts when you were planning to get laid.” Polly snorted. It was actually a relief. He was a bit of a mother hen.

Her phone rang, and she looked at it and froze. “I will be right back.”

She went into the other room and smiled. “Hey, Minoru!”

He looked at her. “You are stressed.”

“Yeah. Exciting times. Loki has a mate and a pack. Neat, huh?”

“It is very exciting. Are you okay? You feel very nervous. And you just spent six hundred dollars at Mama Tsubaki’s.” He smiled.

“I am feeding twelve people. Ulric’s place had an uproar, so we had to secure it. I have to go and drive to Mama’s place.”

“Fine, but I have transferred the bill.”

“Loki always pays me back, especially since Mama doesn’t do takeout for anybody else.” She chuckled. “Fine. Anyway, I have to get going. Isn’t it in the really early morning for you?”

“It is noon.”

“Darn. I am not going to get the hang of this.”

“Will you be home tonight?”

“I don’t know. It depends on how tight we get the house and how comfortable we are. I am thinking we might head to Loki’s. It is nice and secure.”

He frowned. “Is there something else?”

“Yeah. My sister’s pack has my phone number. They have started texting me polite queries.”

He blinked. “Don’t go anywhere unaccompanied. They won’t want witnesses. I will call for a bodyguard. You are not to travel alone. Are we clear?”

“Yes, we are clear.” She smiled brightly. “Kisses!”

He snorted. “Take care of yourself until I am there to do it. I will talk to you before you go to sleep. Right?”

“Yes, alpha.”

His red eyes glowed. “One month, pretty one. Then, you are mine.”

“Pooky, I am already yours. Now good day. Enjoy the sunshine.”

He chuckled, and they stopped the call.

She walked in to hear Loki talking about her. “I am sure that Minoru wants some couple photos as well. Of course, what he wants may need to be captured by a programmed camera. I don’t know if Alexi wants to take pictures of Polly blowing her husband when he is alpha’d out.”

Polly’s voice was clipped. “I am not going to be going down on him for photographic purposes. Loki, are you showing those pictures again?”

He chuckled. “But you look sopretty.”

She blushed and muttered, “Bite me. Minoru is going to freak out when the campaign hits the internet.”

Bella blinked. “Campaign?”

She explained. “Oh, yeah. It is a line of limited edition teas imported from Japan based around seasonal festivals. That kimono, underdress, and the marks on me are all for the new year. Not traditionally, but the past is behind you, kind of thing.” She snorted. “I bet he didn’t show you the image when I was fully dressed. No, of course not. Pervert.”
