“Gods, you’re so sexy when you’re smart,” Dante said with a sigh.
As Dante leaned in to kiss his mate, Noah picked up a handful of cake from his plate and threw it in Dante’s face.
“Well, thanks for your opinion, son,” Dante said.
As we laughed at Dante’s expense, Raja’s family gathered at the side of the table.
“What’s up?” Raja asked.
Kali smiled and said, “Raja, we’ve been talking and we decided we wanted to stay in Cinderhollow until the baby is born.”
“Really? That’s great!” Raja cried.
They had originally planned to return to Pardus clan after the wedding, but this was more exciting for everyone involved.
Eka said, “Your mother and I wouldn’t be able to sleep back in the village not knowing what our grandchild looked like.”
Tears lined Raja’s eyes. “Of course. I want my baby to meet its grandparents!”
“So, you gonna name the baby after me or what?” Koto asked with a wink.
Raja sighed, reached down to his plate, and copied Noah by throwing cake in his cousin’s face.
