“There they are!” Ronan announces from beside me.
His heavy arm is slung around my shoulder as I devour a plate of sautéed venison, being sure to mop
up the savory drippings with a warm roll.
Thank the gods for shifter metabolism; it is probably the only reason I’m standing right now after drinking Ben’s old ass under the table.
I should feel bad for the easy victory, but I don’t.
“Look who I found hiding in the back, whispering with your cousin,” Those say to Kade.
Aria elbows him playfully. “We weren’t hiding. We were catching up. You know, it’s that thing you do
with friends.”
“Can’t relate,” Kade grins, pulling her in by her hips until she’s standing in front of him. “Me and my
friends do our bonding inside you.”
Aria’s face turns beet red, making me want to tease her more.
“And what thorough quality time it is,” I smirk.
“Did you guys whisk me over here to embarrass me?” she pouts.
“No, we just missed you,” Ronan strokes her hair. “Have you eaten yet?”
“Not yet,” she replies.
Kade turns her around and places her on his lap. “Then it looks like we caught you just in time.”
I stand and fill up a plate, taking my time to select the choicest cuts and sauces.
When I return to the table, Theo and Ronan are sitting beside them, and I take the seat across from
them.

Chapter 207
“Had a good time dancing?” I ask, loading the fork with a bit of everything and holding it out to her.
She looks at the fork before taking my offering with a shrug. She has gotten better about that lately, letting us take care of her without resistance.
My wolf growls in approval at her actions.
“Are you jealous?” She teases.
“Yes,“I say without remorse. “I always want your body pressed against mine.”
“What about me?” Kade whines.
“You have the opposite problem. I can’t seem to get rid of you.”
“Clingy bastard,” Ronan laughs.
I feed Aria another forkful, and Kade drops his forehead to her shoulder. “Are you going to let them
just gang up on me like that?”
She pats his head. “Aww, poor baby.”
“Do you know what will make me feel better?” Kade’s eyes go wide with false innocence.
“A lobotomy,” Theo deadpans.
Kade ignores him. “A Kiss.”
I throw a piece of bread at Kade.
“Don’t be petty,” he tosses out.
“Don’t be a pain,” I retort.
“Hey, be good,” Aria says, turning to kiss Kade in a way that makes my dick hard.
Then she leans over toward Theo and then Ronan, giving them the same treatment. After she stands,
she bends across the table. I’m up in record time, taking her face in my hand to take control of the
intimacy she’s offering.

“Ste the new problem solving method you have,” Then says. “We should make it a permanent
W keys that in mind” She give us all a once–over. “It does seem to settle you.”
Not more then this Spending time together is what settles us. Even our bond feels clumer, tranquil
in the price of our band.
“TN for charades!” one of the submissives calls out, breaking me from my train of thought,
“Everyone break up into two teams per room!”
There are some good natted groans as people get up and start to divide and arrange themselves
into two groups. Within minutes, the entire room has gathered around several long tables.
Pack mates each take a tun, young and old, good and not so good, trying to earn points for each
