“If you’re brave enough you can,” he laughed and we shared a long, slow kiss. I wouldn’t be brave enough. He was carrying our babies and our future. He could lay around however long he liked. I didn’t mind picking up the slack.

“It’s funny. We’re talking plurals without knowing.”

“It’s plurals,” I nodded. “I know. Maybe I’m picking up your vibes.”

“Shit!” Laken swore under his breath. “Speaking of vibes. I’d like to try to take care of the whole working with Selt part before I lay my eggs. That way we can handle him together without having him near our nest. He’s flight but I don’t like the idea. My dragon is threatening to use his whiskers like piano wire as we speak.”

“Yeah,” I frowned. “I don’t want him near our nest either. I haven’t talked to Teddy since the last time we saw him together. Let’s hope he hasn’t fucked it up yet.”

“Do you think he would?”

“Not on purpose but Teddy has big emotions even if he can have casual sex,” I shrugged.

“It’s time for me to see your place then, huh?”

“Yep. Though, it already feels like I live here.”

“What the hell happened here?” I asked Laken as we walked by the ship.

At first sniff, things more or less smelled the same, but underneath all that every path smelled like fucking Selt.

“I wasn’t here, mate,” Laken shook his head. “I’m sure we’ll find out but I’m not privy to any more information than youare. I’m sure if there was a problem we’d have heard about it. Someone would’ve let it slip up.”

“Do you think they did the ritual without us?” I asked him.

“I don’t think they can but would that bother you?”

“Maybe,” I rubbed the back of my neck. “I don’t trust Selt with Teddy.”

“That’s not your choice to make. We can say no Selt at our place. We can say no Selt in our nest. We can’t say Teddy can’t talk to him. We’re not his parents and we’re not dating him. We’re not dating him, right?”

“Quit being an asshole,” I laughed and shook my head.

“See, we’re not dating him. So if he is hanging out with Selt that’s not our business unless it stands in the way of the ritual or endangers our eggs. Do you want to see if Izora is on the ship before we see Teddy?”

“He’s not or there’d be a line all over the place with pregnant dragons waiting for the same thing we want.”

“Fair enough,” Laken nodded. “Teddy’s it is.”

Laken

I opened my mouth to suggest that perhaps we should knock but Sunny was already unlocking the door.

“Teddy? I’m gonna be a daddy!” Sunny called out, his voice booming through the house.

“Shit!” Teddy swore further into the house and I barely kept myself from facepalming.

Selt was there. His scent was everywhere. I followed Sunny into the kitchen, close enough to keep him within arm’s reach. I didn’t need him fighting Selt because Teddy decided it was a good idea to shack up with him.

“What the?” A growl edged into Sunny’s voice as he turned away from the kitchen.

There was Selt on his knees with his mouth full of Teddy. I shooed Sunny out of the kitchen and told the two to wrap it up while I calmed my mate down.

“Why would he do that?”
