you
before.”
“She’s probably had no need to.” Savron sounded
annoyed.
Great,
a pissing match. Sasha watched as poor Travis tried to out-shake
Savron.
She groaned because she knew if she didn’t do
anything soon, something was going to be said that shouldn’t, or someone would
get hurt. She pulled on Savron’s arm. “Come on, let’s going. I want to get
something to eat before my dance lesson.”
Savron glared at the Zeck and Travis before he let go and put his arm around her waist. “Nice to meet you.”
Sasha rolled her eyes at Savron’s lie. “I’ll see you
guys tomorrow.” Turning, they walked to Savron’s car.
She got in the car not saying a word. Savron got in
the driver’s side and started the car and drove out of the school.
“You want to
tell me why you have half the guys in love with you?”
“It’s the accent. And they’re not. You just think
that. I was never this popular in Australia.”
“They are. I can smell the lust coming off them.”
She shrugged, unsure of what he wanted her to say.
“Why did you introduce me as only Savron?”
This time she turned and gave him her best evil eye.
“I think from your display they got what you are to me.”
He had the sense to look sheepish. They sat quiet
for a moment.
“What did your mother say about you moving in with
me?”
“Argh, I couldn’t tell her right now.”
Savron didn’t say anything for a while. It wasn’t
until he drove into the mall car park, pulled into a spot and got out, opened
her door and caged her in and she turned to face him. The tips of his fingers
stroked her cheek.
“Why didn’t you tell her? I don’t want to sleep
without you again.”
She closed her eyes and leaned into his touch. “I
couldn’t do it when she said Steven had asked her to marry him, but she’d told
him to wait to see what her girls thought about it first. Mum also wanted to
have a dinner tonight to celebrate, just the four of us.”
Savron sighed and brushed his lips over hers.
“Tomorrow you have to say something.” He helped her out of the car and held her
hand as they walked into the mall.
****
Savron had taken Sasha to get something to eat, and
they’d wandered around the mall to kill an hour before they left for her dance
practice. He’d dropped her off and left going straight his parents. He needed
to talk to his father.
His dad was in his office. Savron knocked and waited
for the okay.
“Hi, Savron, what can I do for you?”
“I, argh. How
do you stop yourself from being jealous of every man who lusts over Mom?”
His dad pointed to the chair in front of him.
“Having trouble are you, son?”
He walked in and sat on the chair across from his
father. “Yes. I’m hoping it’ll get better when Sasha moves in, or when she
acknowledges me as her mate, as hers.”
“Sasha’s human. Give her some time to get used to
the whole idea.” His dad stood and came closer to him. “I’d like to tell you
that you’ll stop getting jealous over men lusting for your mate, or it will get
easier, but that would be a lie. Shifters are very possessive of their mates.
I’m surprised you lasted as long as you did to claim her.” He patted his knee.
“Savron, not only is Sasha beautiful, she’s a very social woman. She’s easy to
get on with, and she’s nice to everyone no matter if they’re human, shifter,
popular or not. Also, that accent is nice to listen to.”
“Thanks, Dad. I went to pick her up from school
today, and two boys were mooning over her.”
“Was she encouraging them?”
“No. But I may have overdone it.”
His dad raised his eyebrow at him.
“I, ah, hugged her and kissed her. Well to call it a
kiss…” He trailed off as his dad laughed.
“How did she react?”
“When we separated, her friends were staring wide-eyed
and shocked, but she only introduced me as Savron, not boyfriend, mate or—”
“Or what, son?”
“Fiancé, husband, anything.” He
sighed. “She did say she
before.”
“She’s probably had no need to.” Savron sounded
annoyed.
