CHAPTER 46
“I thought you’d never ask…” He gives me his drop-dead gorgeous grin as he swoops down. He bends me backwards as he gives me his lips chuckling at first, but then the kiss changes and he brings me back up but never breaks the kiss. He lifts me up and sets me down on top of my desk as I wrap my legs around his waist. He doesn’t try taking it any further and to be honest, I’m struggling on whether or not to do so.
“Mm, maybe we should stop before someone walks in…” I say against his lips, but then wrap my arms around his neck and i kiss him harder.
“I’ll stop if you stop.” He mumbles and then squeezes my ass.
“Don’t you dare…”
I grab hold of his hair as he lays me back onto my desk, so he comes down with me. I can feel his hardness twitch against my core, and suddenly Declan pops into my head. Pulling my lips away and turning my head so I can catch my breath, Gavin continues to kiss up and down my neck oblivious to what’s going on in my head.
I feel guilty, but I don’t know if I feel guilty for thinking of Declan while I’m with Gavin or that I’m making out with Gavin behind Declan’s back even though there is nothing between me and the Alpha of Storm River. It’s so confusing. I’m so engrossed in my own head that I don’t even realize that Gavin has stopped kissing me.
“Quinn…” He says my name, his voice laced with worry.
“I’m sorry….” I don’t know what to say.
He smiles down at me, but then he’s helping me to sit up and then straightens my hair, “I think we might have gotten a little carried away.”
He’s too sweet. We both know that I pretty much initiated that, “No!I mean, maybe a little, but it was nice.” I grab his face and kiss his lips once more, but I leave my tongue in my own mouth this time.
“I would like to have a little talk with Connor and Walker, and the rest of the group as well, if you don’t mind.”
My eyes widen, “Oh shit! They’re still in the safe room!”
Gavin chuckles, “That’s what you did with them? I wondered, but what about their scent? I never scented them when we came in.”
* Apparently, Summer knows how to make that little concoction that you can cover your scent with, because she’s the one that was supplying Jasper with it before.” I open my door and head downstairs to the back of the house.
Speak of the devil. Summer is just coming from the kitchen as I open the door to the safe room. I point to her, “Don’t go anywhere, I want a word with you.” She points to herself, and I nod, “Yeah you!”
Just as the safe room door opens all the way, Summer gasps, and then I hear a low growl coming from the safe room. All of a sudden, Walker blows past me and stops as he comes face to face with Summer
“Mate!” he growls.
Summer breathes heavily as she gazes at the handsome male in front of her, “Mate…” she whispers softly.
They both rush towards each other, and crash together as they hug. Gavin and I glance at one another and smile, glad that we were able to bring another mated pair together, even if neither one of us have found ours.
“Um, Summer, this is Walker, and Walker, this is Summer.” I chuckle because I don’t think either one hears me. I turn back toward the safe room and see Connor with a proud grin on his face,”Congratulations, Connor. Looks like you just gained a daughter-in-law.” I laugh.
He watches his son and new-found mate, “I was worried that he would never find her.”
I place my hand on his shoulder and lean in, “She’s been gone for the past three years, but that’s her story to tell, not mine.” He nods and smiles before stepping out and going over to the mated couple.
“I guess I will hold off on talking to them for a little bit.” he chuckles, and then looks back in at the rest of the group, but his chuckle fades as he stares at the youngest of the women, the one that rode with me and the children, “Demi? Why are you here?”
My heart lurches for a moment thinking this is an ex-girlfriend or something, but then he turns to me and explains, “Demi is one of my friend’ s cousins. She used to tag along with us every chance she got.”
I’m confused, “How old is she?”

“Oh I took you as maybe eighteen, I’m sorry.”
The woman smiles “That’s okay, everybody thinks I’m younger than I actually am.”
