Amby muttered, “Who is Serin?”

“She was the heart of the island. Everyone thought Kekoa would have had her as a beta with an omega when one was available.”

“They were in love?”

“They radiated power. Your cousin does as well, so that is fine. She’s a suitable match.”

“What happened?”

“No one is quite sure. The alpha everyone thought would be hers ended up with her sister, and before that happened, Serin just left. Her family is an old family from the islands. Very old. Some guess that their line goes to earliest human habitation.”

She blinked. “Like what kind of habitation.”

“Like we will be here until the end of time making agreements with gods kind of thing.”

“And she left.”

“Yes, but she’s coming back.” Dorian smiled.

Amby caught the edge of Ohno’s smile. He glanced at Dorian. “She’s coming back.”

Amby got the idea that she wasn’t hearing her mates, she was hearing the ancient being that had made a deal with humans. She shivered a little, and Dorian held her close, rubbing her arm. She leaned her head on his shoulder and waited until they arrived back at the village. It was time to finish another dance class and try to talk to Thera.

How long does a heat last anyway?

Chapter Ten

Thera sat using Skaay as a chair again. The last of the aches and twinges disappeared. “That was fast.”

Orc chuckled from where he was massaging her calves. “I beg your pardon?”

“You know what I mean. There wasn’t any sign of a heat, and then, it was here.” Thera wiggled her toes as he tickled her foot.

“We spend a lot of time underwater. With you, it was more physical expression. You changed the way you moved, the way you sat, and the way you made eye contact. All in a few hours.” Skaay kissed her neck.

She sighed. “That’s not fair.”

Kayak came in with a pitcher of iced pineapple juice. Skaay held the juice to her lips, and she began to be suspicious. When she had consumed half of it, she asked, “Skaay, did you hurry things along, by any chance?”

“What?”

“You know, when you were healing me after the fall, were you thinking about anything in particular?”

Skaay became very still under her and pressed his forehead to the back of her neck. “I may have been thinking about how much fun we were going to have when you were in heat while I worked on your wrist.”

“May have?” She was amused.

“Definitely was.”

“We were only off by four days. Don’t worry.” Thera smirked.

The three literally sighed in relief.

She yawned and stretched. They froze and stared. “Wow. Didn’t you get enough already?”

Kayak grinned. “No. Are you sore?”

“No, Skaay took care of that.”
