“Natasha’s, Star’s. You know what I mean,” I scoffed.
“I am their mate,” he agreed, looking at me with a hint of amusement in his gaze. “And I’m still leaving.”
When the doors opened behind me, he walked right out, completely ignoring me—as did the servants who picked up the suitcases.
Alyce just shrugged at me before she walked away.
“What the fuck are you doing? Follow him!”
Pissed off, I did exactly as Star ordered, quickly walking after them to catch up. Unfortunately for me, this man was massive, and each of his steps was like two of mine. We were halfway through the garden before I finally reached him again.
“Stop this, Hannes. You can’t leave,” I ordered, grabbing his arm and successfully halting his steps. “Okay, what is this? What’s going on? What’s happening?”
“Nothing is happening,” he answered calmly. “We are just leaving.”
My incredulous eyes went to Alyce, who shrugged again and continued walking toward the helicopter pad in all her sexy, wonderful, lesbian glory. She looked like a model strutting the runway in that red winter coat.
“Focus! This is not the time for fashion appreciation, Bitch. I’m losing my mate!”
Right.
Grunting, I realized he’d resumed his pace, and I was forced to rush to his side again.
“Are you leaving because I didn’t immediately remember you when I first woke up?” I asked. “It wasn’t intentional. Everything was coming to me slowly and?—"
“Nope.”
Frowning, I searched my mind for another reason. “Is it because André and Dante slept in my bed last night, but I didn’t invite you to stay?”
“Nope.”
“Because I pushed you all out of my head so you wouldn’t hear my thoughts anymore?”
“Nope.”
“Stop him! He’s almost at the helicopter!”
“Okay, I know I had sex with Dante and André already—separatelyandat the same time—yet nothing has happened with you yet. Is that the reason?”
“Nope.”
“I know you have needs, I’m not unreasonable,” I added, struggling to keep up with his large steps. “And I’m not going to lie, you are definitely delicious. In fact, I’m sure you and I can destroy a few balconies too, but it’s been like two days since I awoke, dude. Give me some time!”
That dangerously adorable grin of his threatened to fully curve his lips, but he asshole didn’t let it take over. He didn’t even answer me.
Using my enhanced speed, I stepped in front of him, blocking his path. “Fine. We’ll have sex right here, right now!”
“Bend over before he can say no. His wolf will take over!”
Deep, throaty laughter escaped him, shaking his broad chest each time, and I couldn’t help the smirk that took over my lips in response.
His happiness was infectious.
“We haven’t even kissed yet, Natalia,” he confessed among chuckles, glancing at me like I was the most adorable little thing.
“First of all, I’m not adorable. I’m a sexy Vampiress so stop looking at me like that.” I wagged my finger at him. “And second of all… We haven’t kissed?”
He shook his head, his eyes saying my cuteness had doubled.
