“What? Check my wolf?”
“Uh-huh.”
Hunter snorted. Something was up but hell if he could figure out what his mate was laughing about. Checking on his wolf, he found him standing partially hidden by Fionn’s dragon. Then his wolf stepped forward…Oh shit. No fucking way!Tearing his eyes away from his wolf, he stared at his mate. “Does he have what I think he has?”
Smiling merrily, Fionn nodded.
“You gave my wolf wings!”
“Yup…well to be exact, my dragon did. So, now, we…they… can fly together.”
Chapter 23
Breakfast was ready and Theo hurried into the great room to announce it, but first there was something more important he had to do. Locating Quin, who was chatting with Robin and Sawyer, he rushed over, whispering into his ear, “I need to talk to you right away. There’s a problem.” Catching Kieran’s eye, Theo gestured for him to join them as he dragged Quin over to a corner.
Letting his friend pull him away from his brother Robin, Quin whispered, “We have an emergency!”
“What’s up?” asked Kieran.
“We have a problem…” Theo wrung his hands.
“And an emergency…” Quin added.
“Fionn came back last night…” Theo said.
“My brother claimed Fionn already…” Quin said.
“Hunter claimed Fionn? When?” asked Theo.
“Last night. That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you. We have a full-blown emergency on our hands,” Quin whispered. “What did I tell you? My brother didn’t romance Fionn. Nope, he just did the wham bam thing.”
“Wham bam thing? What’s that?” asked Theo.
“That’s what Hunter did,” Kieran said. “I bet he didn’t take any time to talk to Fi, just pulled him into bed and claimed him which can be rather exciting because that’s whatmacushladid with me and I loved it. Duh, actually that didn’t work out so well…well eventually it did because my mate came to Ireland and then romanced me so in the end it worked out okay.”
“But that’s the problem,” Quin said. “My brother won’t do that with Fionn. Love Queens, this is an emergency! We need to revise our plans.”
“Good idea,” agreed Kieran, “but we need more information.”
“About what?” asked Theo.
“Well, it would help if we knew how Hunter and Fi are getting along,” Kieran said.
“Can’t your spirit spy on them for us?” asked Theo.
“I asked him already,” Kieran said, “but he won’t. Said it’s private. Hey, I know. I’ll sit next to Fi at breakfast.”
“Robin told me he doesn’t think they’ll be coming down to eat,” Quin said.
“Oh my gods! I know what to do,” Theo said. “I’ll take their breakfast to them and …”
“Perfecto!” Kieran exclaimed. “You can see if there’s any problem between them…like, I don’t know…oh, I got it, like Fionn is on the other side of the room or if Hunter is busy doing something else other than hugging and kissing Fi.”
Turning to Theo, Quin said, “Maybe if Fionn’s alone, you can ask him what happened.”
“If Fionn’s alone, then we know Hunter messed up big time,” Theo said, dejectedly.
“But we can still fix it,” said Kieran. “Quin, when will Robin be finished with the love song?”
