Shaking his head as her words sunk in he changed back to his human skin, stretching his back and grabbing the shirt and pants Blake handed to him. They weren’t sure what they’d find so Justin stripped and Blake brought his clothes along as they hunted for Dee. Blake leaned over the pit and yelled, “Hey there Garfield, seems you got caught up in a bit of a sticky situation. Why haven’t you climbed out of that hole? I hear cats are pretty good climbers.”
Dee simply blinked at him attempting to look annoyed, but she couldn’t hide the relief that was plain on her face.
“Mama, why you playin’ in a hole with mud? You says mud is dirty and how come I can’t play with it but you can? An you said I can’t go on a moon run but you dids.”
A look of utter terror crossed over her face causing Justin to reach over and pull Carter close. “You brought my son to look for me? What if I was in danger?”
Before any words came out of Justin’s mouth Blake piped up. “Well, you’re welcome darlin’ for coming to find you and rescue you from yourself. No, no, don’t thank us quite yet.”
Standing to her full height in the deep pit she crossed an arm over her chest while placing a hand over her groin and looked up at them in disbelief. “I’d rather stay in this hole knowin’ my son is safe than you bringing him here when someone was trying to bury me.”
Blake’s ever present grin faded to cold fury as he transformed into full alpha mode. “What do you mean?”
She stomped her naked foot on the dirt, “I was running back to my house when I fell in this hole. I tried to get out, but the sides of the pit are loose dirt and I just kept falling. I changed into my natural state, but the same thing happened. I couldn’t get out and after a few minutes someone started to fling dirt into the pit with me.” Her voice began to rise in panic, “Now, will you get me out of here so I can get my son somewhere safe.”
“Cool your jets, Dee, he’s with me. I’ll keep him safe while Justin works on getting you out.” He turned his back on her, collecting Carter in his arms Blake said, “I’ll take him to alpha house. Pick him up when you’re done getting her out. I need to feed little man ‘cuz his little stomach is growlin’ up a storm.”
Justin thought it was odd until Blake winked at him before, walking away humming. Well, crap. His brother knew Dee was his mate, but also knew she was extremely resistant to…everyone. He knew when he got Dee out of that pit there’d be trouble.
He leaned over to find her back turned to him giving him his first glance at her beautiful backside. She had a thin frame that appeared to be a bit overly thin. That was probably due to whatever stress she’d been under when Tidus had been her alpha, although he would have thought she’d had enough time to put on weight since his death. Her shoulders were hunched as always, but he noticed a light sprinkle of freckles with a few beauty marks here and there.
She twisted suddenly, pinning him with a fierce scowl before hissing. “Well, do you plan on setting me free? Or are you going to stare at me all night while I freeze?”
Her sudden lashing out didn’t prevent him from noting her legs were long and thin. He enjoyed seeing the apex of her thighs touch, knowing just a hop, skip, and a jump away was her sex. As it was, she stood with her arms crossed again, breasts spilling over her arms to show ample cleavage, while her womanhood was on display. A small patch of hair covered her entrance and she appeared to be all natural down there, no shaving or waxing. Why in the world did that make him even hotter?
His skin was prickling with awareness and his groin was tight. He felt like little Justin was going to pop off at this rate. He knew if he looked down he’d find his member would be bright red with a dash of purple, heavily veined and angry from lack of use. He’d been without her for too long, not being able to pleasure himself without her near, knowing she wanted nothing to do with him while his body was on fire for her.
“Hello…that wasn’t an invitation for you to gawk at me.”
Reeling back he felt the telltale burning of his face as he blushed. For goodness sake, he had been gawking at her. Not just gawking, but fantasizing too which made it all the worse. “I’m sorry, I was…thinking.”
Her eyes narrowed, “Yeah, wondering if the carpet matched the drapes. Are you satisfied? I’m no sex goddess, nor do I want to be. Can you get me out now?”
Taking a moment to think about his next step he tore off his shirt and tossed it down to her. “I’m actually not ready. Let’s talk for a while.”
