I laugh at him.
We were all quick to drop our stuff off. Jena fell right onto her bed face first, starfish style. Shoes on and everything, just snoring away. I turn off the lights and laugh as I head back out the door and downstairs.
There are several jeeps that all the warriors can use. We tend to run everywhere, but this territory is so damn big that sometimes it’s just easier and better to drive. Wyatt and Nathaniel have been taking turns e teaching me to drive. They decided they were offended that I never broke any rules and didn’t try to drive before I turned sixteen. It fed to a lot of eye rolling on my part and razzing for being a goody goody for days from all of my friends. They are slowly trying to figure out how much of a rule follower I have always been. Now it’s a game that they try to sneak into conversation.
Today isn’t one of those days though. We are both tired, but need to wind down from all the excitement, so he just has me drive around this awesome loop that surrounds this edge of the forest near the compound. It is so nice today even though we are deep into the summer. The air is warm, but not heavy and the breeze through the trees is just right. The different shades of green explode across the horizon and set my whole mind at ease after spending the last week overthinking what Mike and this. rogue king are up to, what they want from me and how they both fit into the dynamic of the royal family connection.
I love that Wyatt doesn’t force me to talk when he knows I just need the peace and quiet, but he will also push me to speak when he knows I am in my head about something. We just ride in the open jeep letting the sounds and smells of the forest settle in for about a half hour before I start to really feel the hard week we just had and I head back to the bunkhouse.
I pull up and Wyatt helps guide me to parking in the garage. Why boys need these cars to be crammed in here, I have no idea, but it makes me so nervous to pull in and out of here, but Wyatt won’t do it for me and will lose my privileges to drive it if I don’t take care of it, so here Pam, trying not to dent or scratch anything and it take a comically long amount of time for me to figure it out. And Wyatt doesn’t hide his amusement at all.
Ten minutes later we are walking out of the garage and as we get to the front door, I stop short.
“Mina!!!” I run to my friend and jump into her arms. She hugs me gently, but strong at the same time.
I pull back from her to take a look. She is the same as she was a couple weeks ago, but she is different. I can feel it radiating off of her.
“Damn, Luna. You look good. We’ve missed you.”
Wyatt walks up and gives her a side hug.
“I’ve missed you guys too. It sounds like you have been up to all kinds of stuff without me.”
She smiles at both of us and we all start to walk in. I am starving and as much as I missed my friend, I cannot wait to have one of Stella’s hot meals and I have no issues dragging her along with me.
“So…how’s mated life?!” Wyatt asks with a little lisp and batting his eyelashes as he sits down at our table.
2-115
She laughs. “Alright, no beating around the bush then. It’s been great, but there is so much to it. Everyone left us alone for the first week which was amazing!” She closed her eyes and smiled.
“Oh, yeah? How amazing are we talking? I need deets on our future Alpha King, you know for comparison.”
Lillian chimes In.
“Well, I have two, so there’s that.”
She smiles wickedly and I can’t decide if I want to know anymore or not.
The more they talk about s*x around me the less embarrassed it makes me, but she’s also talking about Xander, my cousin and big brother stand in. I’m curious and conflicted.
“Have you had them both at the same time? I always kind of wondered how that worked. I mean having multiple mates isn’t, like, rare, but it’s not super common either. Do they get jealous at all?” “Nope, no jealousy. Actually, it’s a turn on to watch. They are both really hot and I never knew I was into watching, but having to just sit and watch them touch each other. Ahh!”
“And, I’m out. I can listen to a lot of things and I am not judging at all, but I don’t not want that in my head everytime I have to talk to my Alpha King.”
Wyatt gets up and grabs
Nathaniel’s arm as he approaches the table.
“What’s up?” He tries to balance his plate.
“That is a conversation you do not want to be a part of.”
“Huh?!”
“Mina is here…”
“I know I wanted to say hi.”
“She’s describing her s*xcapades with her two mates. She just started going into detail about them pleasing each other.”
Nathaniel’s eyes go wide. “Got it. Hi Mina, let us know when you are not gossiping.”
They both turn around and walk away.
“I thought they would never leave.”
