Chapter 35
A half hour later, the two finally come back, hand in hand and Jake pulls Mary down into his lap to sit at the camp fire while the golems patrol.
"They’re mates, but Jake has been trying to take it slow, so he doesn’t freak her out. Humans don’t always react well to having a werewolf mate, especially if he goes all Alpha on them. Today he must have finally told her, and it looks like she’s accepted him."
"Just as long as he doesn’t pup her before she’s finished training" Karl mutters just loud enough to be sure everyone hears, causing Mary to stick her tongue out at him before curling back up into Jake’s arms.
"Don’t worry, I’m sure he understands that the end of the world is a bit more important than having kids right now" Mary teases, causing Jake’s eyes to flash to gold as his wolf gets excited about the thought.
"Don’t worry boys, I’m sure there’s a pair of cute mage twins out there somewhere waiting for you." I tease the Ramirez brothers, Juan and Manuel. "Or maybe you are more into a couple of Vamps?"
"Hey, maybe we’re holding out for twin witches" Juan laughs and Manuel shakes his head.
"Can you imagine? The pair of us in a cabin in the woods, collecting animal parts and herbs for our wives spell casting? Just can’t see the witch thing working out. But those vampire girls" Manuel trails off with an exaggerated mock sigh, setting the whole camp to laughing.
"Like me, Jurgen is holding out for his mate" Jake adds. "Me, I thought since I’d left the packs that I’d have to wait years to find mine, but here she is."
I’d forgotten how sickeningly lovey dovey newly mated werewolves are.
