Carl:Caveman Instinct series 2.5(25)
"That the kid that did this to you two?" Both my brother and cousin nodded, but I noticed their gazes didn't leave the woman's arse. An urge to beat both of them washed over me at the sight of them staring at what only moments ago I had been staring at. Huh, that was weird. Mentally shaking off the feeling, I gave a glare to both Oakley and Andrew. "Stay in line. I'm going to go over and see if I can smooth things over."
Without waiting for their reply I made my way over to the couple. The woman was now quietly talking to the teenager who still hadn't stopped staring my way. The closer I got the stronger my sense that something wasn't right, that I wanted to beat the shit out of my brother and cousin for treating the woman the way they had. I was thirty two years old, too old to want to fight my brother and cousin. And I'd long since given up on finding my mate.
"I promise if you ignore the dipshits, I'll move you to a new school if you want. One without rich little pricks."
I stopped just out of reach from them. I was close enough now that a vanilla scent surrounded me instead of the hospital disinfectant. I took in a deep breath of the heavenly scent and almost moaned as my whole body hardened.
"What the fuck do you want?" The teenager snarled.
The woman who the vanilla was wafting off of, spun around to face me and I took a step towards her. Damn, she was not just beautiful, she was stunning. Super long black lashes blinked revealing dark brown eyes that looked almost black enough to match her hair. Her nose was straight and perfect with a slight point. Her lips weren't too full, but they weren't thin. They were perfect, just like the rest of her. She was a tiny thing, I bet barely five feet tall, with light olive skin and a body to die for. Damn. My heart beat faster than I'd ever felt it beat before. I opened my mouth to reply to the kid, but nothing intelligent came out. "Mine. You're mine."
"What! What the hell kind of answer is that?" the kid growled.
My mate, my soulmate, who I'd given up hope of ever finding groaned and her gaze went from her brother to me and back before she mumbled, "Men." She stepped in front of her brother and narrowed her gaze on me. "Look, I'm sorry my brother kicked your um … brothers?"
I nodded. I knew if I spoke it wouldn't be anything but caveman talk.
"Arses, but they were being douches. Arron was just protecting me. Can we just forget about it and put it all behind us? No one will press charges."
Oh, she was using the threat of pressing charges to keep everything quiet. I couldn't help the smirk that spread over my face. I crossed my arms over my chest and stared down at my one, my soul mate. "Really?"
Her relaxed stance changed. She straightened herself up and eyed me up and down, a smirk of her own spreading across her beautiful face. "Yes. Really. Now," she nodded her head in the direction of my brother and cousin. "It looks like they found a nurse and you're going in instead of waiting with us ‘normal people.'" She raised her hands in air quotes.
Huh, what? What did she mean by normal people? I looked over my shoulder and sure enough, a nurse was guiding my brother and cousin through to the rooms. Sighing, because I knew the Silverman name had gotten us priority, I looked back at my mate, whose name I didn't even know, and debated what I should do. Did I follow my brother and cousin, who were still under age at seventeen, or did I wait and get to know my mate?
The choice was taken from me when a nurse walked over to me. "Mr. Silverman, if you could please come with me as your brother and cousin are both minors and need an adult or guardian with them."
My mate turned her back on me and I fought the urge to spin her around, throw her over my shoulder and take off with her. Without saying a word though, I followed the nurse. I'd find my soul mate again, and soon.
