I sighed and finished in the bathroom, then pulled on sensible clothing—stretchy ski
Once done, I joined the hunter.
Kaillen was also dressed in his combat gear and decked out in a new harness with his weapons and potions strapped to him again. My mouth grew dry at the sight, and that telltale arousal again licked my insides.
I knew the same had been born in him, not only from the heat growing in his gaze, but from the bond that was threaded between us. I scented his arousal but also felt it too. Fucking hell, the man gave hornball a whole new meaning.
His nostrils flared, and he winked. “You should eat before we go.”
I eyed the high-calorie food that he’d put out on the kitchen table, not even realizing till that moment that I was starving. So, I did as he suggested and pretty much ate everything, but such was my new metabolism.
The entire time I was stuffing my face, he watched me, his gaze constantly dipping when my shirt clung to my chest or my pants snagged at my waist.
“If we don’t leave now, I’m going to have you against that wall in about two seconds flat.” Tenseness lined his shoulders, and his length was clearly evident through his pants.
Despite not wanting to, I sprang into action, knowing this was going to be a constant battle to fight our mutual lust, but we had a job to do at the moment, so going on a mating honeymoon wasn’t in the cards just yet.
“Let’s go.”
His gaze ran up and down my frame when he assessed me in a new harness that was strapped with weapons. “Damn, woman. Just damn.”
I smirked. “Like what you see?”
He took a deep breath. “Fuck yes.”
With that, we gripped one another’s hand and jumped through his wards.
