“What plan?”
“You are getting attacked by an unknown group. At the same time, I might be able to help you but I’m being held in this cabin. I assumed you have some sort of plan?”
“Right now we are trying to get more information. Our mating wasn’t planned. It is not our way to just mate like that. We are supposed to receive the approval of our leader and go through a process at the temple that ensures we are matched correctly.”
“You want a way out?”
Stevr growled. “I do not. It is a way to get approval I am seeking. The problem is it will be approval after the fact.”
“I often ask for forgiveness rather than permission. That’s one of my favorite sayings. What will happen if they say we are not matched properly?”
Stevr smiled brilliantly. “That is something they can’t say.”
“Why not?” She asked looking confused. He stepped closer to her tracing the lines of her new tattoo.
“This only appears on true mates and we each have one.” His face held a superior smirk.
“Yours appeared before you ask me to mate you.”
His smirk was gone, a worried look in its place.

Liar Liar
She gave him one of the searching looks she gave someone she was questioning. No, not an enemy but someone holding back something important to protect themselves or another. Stevr flushed under her regard, there was no doubt he was hiding something. “What aren’t you telling me?” She asked as she smiled sweetly.
“We might have mated the first time we made love accidently.” He admitted.
“How do you mate exactly?”
“Well this was my first and only time. It uh does involve a bite.” His nervousness might have been cute under other circumstances.
“Have you been honest with me?” She felt like he was playing a game like liar liar to see what she would believe. It was an old Earth game where you told a lie along with several truths to see if your opponent could pick out the lie. Geena had just caught the lie.
“Yes, but maybe not completely. We mated the first time we made love.”
“Why didn’t you just tell me?”
“I thought you would get mad and reject our bond.”
“Well finally some honesty. How are we going to have a life together if I can’t trust you?” It was more of a rhetorical question since there wasn’t really an acceptable answer. It was kind of cute the way the big guy squirmed under her searching gaze. A small well of sympathy tried to grow but she squashed it.
“I want honesty between us too. We can agree to do that going forward.” He had a hopeful look on his face. Clearly he wasn’t good at charming females and she liked that.
The fact that he wasn’t some smooth talking Romeo gave him a few points in her mind. It was important to her to start this relationship properly with everything laid out and agreed upon. But she had to admit emotions had ruled the day. Geena had gone into this expecting a relationship based on what the male and she could do for each other without any feelings on either side. Love wasn’t part of the plan but maybe it could be.
“Hmm, sounds like you’re trying to get a free pass.”
Stevr pulled her into his arms. Damn him, she just melted like snow in July. His warmth filled her as his delicious scent filled her nose. “You’ll think this is odd, but I swear my sense of smell just got stronger.”
“It’s entirely possible that you’ll go through some changes. This is amazingly fast though. Usually some of your senses will improve over a period of weeks not hours. Some of my brother’s mates are just starting to see signs of it. Lista of course got traits faster because she got pregnant right away. It still wasn’t the first day.”
“That’s just like me to pick things up faster than anyone else.”
“Would you let me snap a quick picture of your tattoo? They’ll want to see it before they consider approving our mating.”
“Okay. What happens if they deny it?”
“The more I think
