Page 61 of His Treasured Mate

His eyes kept staring at my mouth that wasn’t moving. He shook his head in confusion. “What did you just say?”

I gave him a watery smile. You heard me, big boy.

Lil? he asked without speaking.

I smiled and nodded.

Shit, you set me up, he accused.

I grinned and shrugged. Maybe you should pay a little more attention to your mate.

It’s really happening. I can’t believe it. Our bond’s complete?

Looks like, I admitted, jumping up and wrapping my arms around his neck and kissing him. This is the coolest thing ever!

He pulled back and didn’t look so convinced. This is going to take some getting used to.

Just think, now I don’t have to give subtle hints that you often miss when I want the girls to go to bed early so I can have you all to myself. I can just secretly tell you. I had a momentary flash of him naked, making love to me.

He grinned from ear to ear. I saw that, you know.

You did? How about this one? I remembered how he used to wake me up every morning pre-kids. Certainly put a smile on my face.

If you can convince Cammie to actually sleep in her own bed, I’d be happy to reinstate that particular tradition.

Liam walked by us and stopped. “Why are you two just standing there, staring at each other with those goofy looks on your faces?”

Oh, wouldn’t he like to know? I thought, cracking both of us up.

“Jesus, you’d think you were newly mated or something,” Liam continued. “You’re supposed to be helping Peyton in the kitchen, Lil, remember?”

“Oh yeah, I’m on my way,” I told him, giving Thomas a quick peck on the lips and turning to leave for real.

I had an instant flash of my behind walking away. Damn, I’ll never get sick of looking at that.

I turned and grinned, shaking my booty for him. Even though I’m fat and gross?

Girl, you are incredibly sexy carrying my child. You have no idea what that does to me. All round and beautiful. He growled in my head.

Good to know, but this is still our last pregnancy.

We’ll see about that.

I laughed.

Chapter 16

Good morning.

I heard Lily in my head before I even opened my eyes. After just one day I had figured out the difference of hearing her through my ears versus in my head. It was already crazy to me that I'd ever mixed up the two.

The whole telepathic thing was going to take some getting used to. I hated that she had heard my thoughts on the origin of her nickname. It wasn't going to stop me from using it, but it also killed me that it had upset her.

You're projecting and it just caught me off-guard.

This is too weird, I told her.
