Aiden shrugged. “The camp’s over.” “Well, yeah. It is,” I said. “But the city league games don’t stop until the fall. You’ve still got like fifteen or twenty games, and at least that many practices left. You’ve got so much baseball coming up you won’t know what to do with yourself.” April laughed as she…

I’m-a-magical-creature talk probably did take precedence over the do-you-want-kids talk. Still, it was good that we were having this conversation. Now, matter what happened, we knew where the other stood. When we got home, I could tell by the bulge in Steff’s pants that he hadn’t forgotten about our steamy little moment in the restaurant….

She sagged in her chair, looking like someone had just told her that her dog had died. Like being pregnant was the worst thing that could ever happen to anyone. I remembered the story Kellan had told me about how Aiden’s mom had left, and I worried Chelsea was thinking the same thoughts she had….

“This isn’t about me, is it?” Steff asked. “I don’t want you to give up on something you love to be close to me. I already said I’d go with you and visit as much as possible. I wouldn’t want this big of a decision to be based on me.” “It’s only partly about you….

I gazed up at the ceiling and decided not to crush all his hopes. “Okay. I’ll talk to you later. Maybe at the end of this week. You can tell me what you’ve been able to find.” “Now we’re talking. That’s my girl. All right, I won’t let you down. Stay safe. Talk to you…

“When I was over at Harley’s the other night, we spoke about her becoming a shifter. She said her dragon was like a different person living inside her, but you share emotions and things. Is that what you feel?” He took a while to ponder over that. “That’s pretty accurate. My bear and I coexist….

Tate gently took April by the arm and led her toward me. “April, Steff is here. Time to go home.” “Oh, what a spoilsport. Big bad dragon is tired and wants to go to bed.” Harley pouted, swatting Tate’s arm playfully. Tate looked at her and rolled his eyes. He glanced at me and grinned….
