I feel his relief and he smiles back at me, after the relief, his love for me became the biggest occupying emotion, that I could feel through our bond. “You are very welcome” he responds, his voice deep and rumbly.
Our moment was broken when Darien says “What are you two talking about so privately?” In a loud voice, getting everyone’s attention centered on us.
Under the spotlight of everyone’s gazes, I look at Darien and growled “Why is it I tolerate you again.” My tone annoyed.
Darien, unfazed by my growled words, said “Because I’ve been your best friend since we were nine, you’re mated to my older brother, you love me like a brother, and I let you beat me up on a regular basis.” his tone annoyingly bright and just a touch jaunty.
I was going to growl at him again, but he was right. Besides, I wanted to see how Sunny and Asher would react to Damien’s bit of news “If you must know…Damien was just telling me that we’re taking Sunny with us.” I tell him in a dry drawl.
Sunny, still smiling a beam of sunshine, jumped happily in her seat. “You mean I get to travel with you all?!” she asked in an excited tone. I nod at her question.
“I love seeing you happy my Starlight” Damien whispers to me through our mind link. My heart warmed and melted at his words.
I was still a little amazed that this was my life now…before…I never dared to hope…to dream…that I could have this much joy and happiness in my life…this much love.
Asher also looked pleased with the turn of events. “I’m glad you’ll be joining us.’ he said, looking mesmerized by her smile.
Looking at an Asher who was completely lost in Sunny’s smile, I tell my mate “It’s a good thing he’ll have two mates, he’ll need the second one just to handle this little Fae” amusement in my tone. O
Damien bursts out laughing at my comment, I give a half smile of amusement when everyone looks our way. Then just as Darien opened his mouth, no doubt to ask what was so funny, I took a big bite of my cheesy rice omelet. Darien closed his mouth and shot me an annoyed look, making Damien laugh all over again.
I look at my mate, enjoying his laughter, he looked so handsome when he laughed. When he stopped laughing he looked down at me, and was smiling. He lifts a hand and cups my cheek. His hands were big enough his fingers were on my neck, the tips of his fingers on my hair at the back of my neck, his thumb resting along my ear. Leaning down he gives me a sweet lingering kiss, one that conveyed how deeply he loved me. were
“That…that’s what my mom and dad had…it’s what I want for myself.” Sunny said, her voice had a sad note to it, and longing was in her words. O
Damien and I smile at each other for a moment then we look at Sunny. “Stick with us, and you’ll get that wish, when your mates can claim you.” I tell her in a soft voice.
Sunny looks at me, her face showing her astonishment at my comment “Did you…did you…just say… mates?” was her stunned question.
Smiling warmly at her, amused by her reaction to my words, I say. “Yes my dear little Fae, mates.” My voice happy.
She seamed so stunned, with the idea that she would have two mates, that she completely missed my endearment. My brother however did not and looked at me in surprise.
I winked at him and mouthed an, ‘I’ll tell you later.’ He nodded and went back to staring at Sunny, utterly and hopelessly devoted already.
I giggled, getting a look from Damien, smiling I explain through our mind link “Look at poor Asher, he’s already wrapped around her little finger, and the best part…” I trailed off.
Smiling, and sounding amused, he asks. “The best part is?”
“The best part is…she doesn’t even know it” I burst out laughing and Damien smiles and chuckles. We get amused and knowing looks from everyone else, as they were watching the same show we were.
Victor had his head buried on Jaxon’s chest, his arms around Jaxon’s waist with his shoulders shaking, Jaxon’s hand was over his mouth and his shoulders were also shaking.
My father was smiling, smothering chuckles with his fist, holding my mother to him as she laughed till tears fell down her face.
She was using one of the white cloth, lace edged, napkins to wipe away her tears.

Poor Sunny was staring at everyone, confused by our laughter. While my brother glared at us all. Making us all laugh just that much harder at his expense. O
Damien’s POV
Nearing the end of breakfast, Cathel had Sunny’s complete attention. Despite being abused, and everything we knew of, that she had gone through, she seemed to have been able to retain her almost child like innocence. We could see it in all it’s glory as she asked Cathel question after question, and Cathel gladly answered, asking her questions as well. They were both just so curious about each others worlds, if I had to use a word, I would say they were adorable.
Asher seemed to look a little dejected about not having Sunny’s full attention anymore. Zane, having been alert to everything around us the moment we woke, chuckled. ‘The poor pup…. he’s having to learn the hard way to share.’ He says.
I snort internally at his comment ‘And we didn’t?’ I asked in an a wry tone.
Zane goes still, the look on his face, even as a wolf, was very clearly of annoyance and offence ‘What are you talking about, I’ve always been able to share.’ He says in and uppity tone. How a wolf could sound that way, was beyond me, but Zane managed it.
‘I seem to recall you being overly whiney whenever Alora or Xena, paid Darien and his wolf Axel a lot of attention, you would sulk for days.’I remind him in an amused tone. Zane huffs at my comment, but he doesn’t reply.
Once we got back to the hotel, Alora and I got to watch poor Asher, look like his sunshine was being taken away from him.
Sunny had decided to ride with my in-law’s and Cathel, only because she didn’t want to stop her conversation with the inquisitive little Vampire, Witch Hybrid. Asher could have gone with them, but he had questions…questions only Zane had the answers to.
