“Decker, that’s just crap! I’m responsible for myself and if it’s anyone’s fault, it’s that vile excuse for a human, Big Eddie.”
Decker agreed and said, “You’re not forgetting the puppies are you?”
She giggled, “No, I could never forget them.”
“One day, you’re going to have to explain to me why you call them puppies.”
She looked up at him and gave a small smile, “Yeah, one day.”
It was one o’clock in the morning and Katie couldn’t sleep. She couldn’t stop thinking of the pity filled look Conner gave her in that cabin. What should she do?
Her curtains rustled and a large black wolf sprang through the window. Followed by a grey wolf, a silver wolf, and another grey wolf, with a stripe of white on his belly. She was lying in bed, in her jammies, and was frozen in place. What should she do?#p#分页标题#e#
The black wolf, Conner, hopped up on the bed and placed his body flushed with hers. The other wolves followed him up onto the bed. She was in a double bed with four shifter wolves that were ginormous. She didn’t feel crammed for space, instead a yawn slipped out of her mouth, and she fell asleep moments later.
Decker went to check on Katie, like he did every morning, offering breakfast that she refused every time. He softly knocked and pushed the door open. He saw a pack of wolves on the bed with Katie. She was sleeping like a baby, but the black wolf lifted his head, and Decker swore he smiled. He got it, puppies.
Katie woke after the best sleep of her life and looked at the clock over a mass of fur. Eleven o’clock. She had slept a full ten hours, hallelujah.
Conner’s muzzle was buried in her neck. When she put her head down, not wanting to wake the pack, Conner licked the side of her neck. She tittered. The other wolf’s heads came up, and she blushed.
Conner motioned his head to the window, and one by one the wolves rubbed their heads along her jaw, and leapt out the window. “Luckily we’re on the first floor.”
There was a dazzling intense light, and then a naked Conner was lying next to her. “Come home. I want you back; I miss you. I’m sorry for whatever I did, just come home.”
“What shifters don’t propose marriage? We’re going to live in sin the rest of our lives?”
Conner motioned for her left hand, reached around to the side table where he had placed the ring he’d gotten her. He slid it on her left hand ring finger and kissed her hand. The ring was a clear vivid diamond engagement ring. He’d planned on waiting but he couldn’t wait any longer. “Will you marry me?”
“I donno, why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free. And babe, I already have your three best creations.”
He rubbed her abdomen which had surprisingly gotten a little more rounded. “How are my pups?”
“Perfect.”
“Get dressed we’re on a schedule.” Conner needed to get out of this bed, before he took her on her best friends extra bed. Decker had said no nookie under his roof, and Conner wanted to respect that.
“But I haven’t answered your question.”
“You’d refuse me? I’m your baby’s daddy.” He looked earnestly at her, “Do you truly not want to be with me? I do love you, but if that’s your decision, I’ll have no choice but to stick by it.” But damn it would hurt; like the end of my world.
She contemplated the matter briefly before stating, “It has always been you, Conner. From the first moment I saw you, I knew I’d never be the same. I’d love to marry you, and have a family.”
He smiled, simply smiled, and pulled her to her feet. “We really do have a busy day, so go get dressed. Or we could have another shower scene, I do love those.”
She pushed him from the room while she quickly dressed. “What’s so big about today?” She yelled through the door.
“For pity sake, just hurry up.” She heard him mutter, “Women,” as she opened the door.
Katie was gorgeous wearing form fitting jeans, with brown boots, and a button up top. He wanted to strip her down and make love to her all day long.
“Keep looking at me like that wolf, and we won’t be going anywhere.”
Conner shook the cloud of lust free, and placed a chaste kiss to Katie’s pouty lips. “I love you, future Mrs. Matthews.”
She smiled, “About that, would you be terribly upset if I kept my maiden name?”
He rolled his eyes and pulled her out the front door. “As long as you marry me, you can use any name that suits you, as long as it’s mine.” He gave her a sensual smile.#p#分页标题#e#
