The door opened and Robyn stepped through, dressed in a pale blue robe. Her hair swung loose over her shoulders and her eyes seemed to glow with the reflected light of the moon.
Keil’s heart rose up and choked off his throat. The scent of her wolf increased as the moon drew nearer. This is what he’d been waiting for all his life.
“Oh, yeah. You definitely have to get naked.”
Desire rolled over both of them as they stared into each other’s eyes, the rest of the people in the room forgotten.
“Gag.” TJ pretended to slip his finger down his throat. He slid in front of Robyn and kissed her cheek. “While I’m glad you’re going to be my sister-in-law and my Alpha, can you save the sex for when you get in front of the pack?”
Robyn’s face went completely white as she whipped around to glare at Keil. “Is there any tiny, insignificant detail that you might have forgotten to inform me about tonight?”
He shrugged and gave a look to let her know how much he wanted her. “It may have slipped my mind. But I don’t think you’ll mind too much. We’ll be wolves. It’s time to go.”
He turned and offered his arm to lead her into the moonlight of the clearing. Robyn paused for a second and Keil offered up a prayer she wouldn’t go too ballistic on him.
Shaking her head, she laid a hand on his elbow and walked with a regal air through the door into the main hall with him.
“I need to do something special for you. A surprise since you obviously like them. Oh, I know. I’m making you a big batch of brownies tomorrow. Just for you. With ‘special’ ingredients.”
She leaned over and kissed his cheek, then whispered in his ear. “And you’re going to eat them all.”
Keil stopped them for a moment as they approached the center of the gathering. He stared into her eyes, seeing the twinkle of mischief overtaking the anger. She was amazing, this mate of his. Just what he needed in his life and what the pack needed as well.
He released her arm and turned to face her. Carefully crossing his hands over his heart he dipped his head. “I love you, little bird. Shall we go become Alpha?”
“With you, anything.”
“Good. You get to share the brownies.”
