I see he got you to agree to a visit which is what he had been angling for from the start. I told him
that you wouldn t go for it.
Okay well I will probably get pissed off about that, but I don t want you to be separate from any
friends you might have made on your journey here. All I do want to know is firstly are you sure you
made the right decision in being with me and secondly why did you keep humoring the man when he
was talking to you?
Standing up in his graceful way, Shawn sauntered over to Kane and put his arms around the larger
man. Putting his mouth up to Kane s ear he said quietly, I am not even going to answer the first
question. I am bonded to you in every possible way and you are going to have to learn to trust that.
To the second question the answer is simple. Damien is lonely.
Kane snorted so Shawn continued in his melodious voice. Think about it Kane. Damien is the leader
of the largest pack in the States. He is the owner of the biggest BDSM club anywhere. He has droves
of men falling over his feet to be noticed by him every single day. But he is looking for the same
thing I was. A true connection. Someone who will love him exactly for who he is rather than what he
is. He wants to find his mate. I understand how he feels and that is why he is my friend.
Kane took Shawn s face in his hands and kissed him, thoroughly. You are so understanding aren t
you?
Only when I have to be, Shawn managed to murmur before he captured Kane s lips with his own.
Kane felt all of his tensions from the past hour melt away under Shawn s expert kiss. Once the kissing
started to increase in urgency, Kane pulled away and tugged Shawn into the house up to their room.
Won t anybody miss us? Shawn asked.
I don t care if they do. This is supposed to be our wedding day. They will know where we are.
Chapter Twenty Six
Neither Kane nor Shawn got a lot of sleep that night. The threat of the next day s event seemed to
make both men frantic with need and the early dawn light was peaking through the windows when
they could finally come together this time slowly, and with love. As Kane collapsed spent over his
mate, he rolled and pulled Shawn close into his arms. It wasn t until their breath had slowed
completely that he spoke.
I am going to have to watch you die today my lover. I don t know if I have the strength.
Shawn was tracing his fingers over Kane s armband tattoos. He knew he could argue that this was the
only way that the whole Xavier issue could be resolved. But Kane didn t need any argument - he
needed reassurance.
I believe you do, Shawn said quietly and firmly.
You truly believe I can bring you back like Paulo said?
With every fiber of who I am.
Can you show me?
Shawn thought about what Kane meant for a moment and then he reached over with his hand and put it
directly over Kane s heart. He put his other hand on his heart and closed his eyes. Tapping into his
magic Shawn allowed the energy to flow between himself and his mate.
Look inside your heart and see what I see, he said softly.
Kane closed his eyes and allowed his spirit to see . In his minds eye he watched as Shawn opened up
the connection between them. He could actually see all three of Shawn s spirits; the strength of his
wolf, the power of his magic and the compassion of the human that housed them. As he looked he
could see the blue haze of magic forge a direct link from Shawn s heart to his and there in his heart he
saw the resonating blue glow of Shawn s magic beating in rhythm with his human heart protected by
the spirit of his own wolf.
This was the connection the Shaman had talked about. His heart was where Shawn s magic had taken
root. Now he understood. It was their love that would always keep them connected. It was their love
that would allow Kane to bring back his mate s wolf from death itself. It was their love that would
give Kane the strength to do what he had to do.
I understand. Kane whispered his voice filled with awe. Shawn opened his eyes and slowly
withdrew his magic. Then he smiled.
Now you see what I see when I look at you. You are my protector. You are the keeper of my spirit
and in your heart I will always have life.
I will bring you back simply because every moment you are in death will seem like an eternity to
me. I won t let you down. You have my word. Kane spoke as quietly as his mate but the conviction
in his words made them strong.
I know.
The two men lay entwined for what seemed like hours but what was probably only a couple before a
small knock sounded at the door. On Kane s gruff Come in, the door opened to reveal Cheryl
standing at the door beside Griff who was carrying a huge tray full of food.
We thought you boys might like breakfast in bed, she said laughing as Kane grabbed a blanket to
cover them both and they struggled to sit up in bed. I wanted Griff to bring it up for you, but he said
you would yell at him, Kane, if he disturbed you. But I knew you wouldn t yell at your mother now,
would you.
Grinning, Kane shook his head. Griff came over and settled the big tray over their legs, propping it up
on the bed. Then he stepped back and leaned on the wall.
Now Shawn, Cheryl fixed her gaze on the man, I want to know about this Lucius character. I
understand he is a friend of yours and he seems really interested in my Vincent. What can you tell
me?
Oh Mom leave Vincent alone, he is a big boy now. Kane groaned.
I was talking to Shawn. Eat your food before it gets cold.
Hmm Shawn thought. Well Cheryl is not going to want to know about Lucius s success as a Master
Dom, or his prowess with other men. What sort of thing was important to mothers?
Uh, Lucius is a really good man, Cheryl. He is a Beta in Damien s pack and Damien trusts the man
implicitly. I believe he owns his own computer business and has his own home. He& er& has a lot of
friends both in and out of the pack and is a good guy to go to if you have a problem. Shawn looked at
Kane as if to say well is that enough?
Hmm, Cheryl was obviously thinking about Shawn s words. I think there are things you aren t
telling me and I am just going to guess it is because you are too polite. Over by the wall Griff
snorted. But do you vouch for him Shawn, and be careful how you answer cos I am your mother-in-
law you know.
Yes ma am I hadn t forgotten and yes I would totally vouch for Lucius. I would trust him with my
life. Shawn could answer honestly about that at least.
Okay, well that s all right then. I had better go and prepare your father that there will be another son-
in-law in the family soon enough. Thank goodness your other three brothers are already married to
decent girls and have all got pups of their own or he could get a little bit upset. With that she waltzed
out of the bedroom with a wink.
Shawn was looking at Kane and Griff, Lucius and Vincent? Really? [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ] - zanotowane.pl
