Page 40 of Hunting Savage
Aurora buried her face against Savage, trying to hide her laughter.Nothing could hide the mirth as her shoulders shook as she tried to ground herself using him for extra strength.
“You two are cute together.Your sister will be very pleased.”Jenna raised her hands, miming the action of a camera taking a picture.
“What the fuck are you doing, female?”Savage asked, his voice a deep rumble.
Bright purple eyes widened back at them, but Aurora knew before the crazy Fey spoke what she’d been doing.She, too, was a little in shock at the woman, but knowing an unhinged yet amazing female like Jenna, she liked to shock others.
“I just took a mental snapshot for Starla.You’re lucky I didn’t make pew, pew signs.”Jenna winked.
“We’ve decided which pack we want to go to.”Quinn broke into the conversation.
Jenna clapped her hands.“That’s good to hear.So, which shall it be?I should let you know our Goddess isn’t intimidated by your messes.She specializes in it.You know the addiction the three of you have fallen into with your old crew?The one where you follow without thought?Your new pack is nothing of the sort.Kellen Stiles is the alpha of the Iron Wolves.He's an amazing bestie and an even more awesome alpha.He just doesn’t stand for idiots.Niall is the alpha of the Mystic Wolves.He’s lived through the loss of his first mate but was gifted a second mate who, in my opinion, is fantabulous.While he might appear laidback, I assure you, he’ll whoop your wolf ass without blinking an eye, and then his beta, who happens to be his brother, will do it again because he will feel the need to remind you not to try him.So, with that being said, which will it be?
Quinn looked over at Magnus and Sterling, then at Jenna.“The Iron Wolves, if they’ll have us.”
Aurora blinked back tears, hearing the heartache in his voice he tried so hard to hide.The three males were huge in human form and would no doubt be massive wolves.Her sister said the brothers had been nice, like fun uncles to her while she’d been held captive.She wondered what devastation they’d suffered.The pain none of them could mask, at least not from her.A heartbreak?Some sort of jail cell, bad relationship, or a wild season they’d barely crawled out of?Whatever it could’ve been, she had a feeling their old alpha used it as leverage.
“Kellen and the others are prepared to welcome you.I’d say with open arms, but it’s not their way.I don’t think any of you would trust them if they did.They’re not sitting around polishin’ their halos, though.I mean, nobody could ever say my wolfies are angels, but they’re good beings.”
Quinn and the other two males nodded in agreement.
“When will I get to see my sister?”Aurora asked.She tried to keep the tremble from her voice as she posed her question.Goddess, she sounded like a stage five clinger for fuckssake.
“You can come with me if you’d like?”
Savage growled.His arm slid around her hips.“When will you return, Starla?”he asked.
Aurora didn’t want to leave Savage or Earth.Although going to Fey sounded exciting, leaving the male who held her heart didn’t appeal to her in the slightest.
“She’s only been gone a few minutes.I think I can handle a couple of days' separation.”Aurora swallowed around the lump in her throat.Her sister had been her entire world for almost ten years.Now, with her being so far away, she felt empty.
“You’re not empty.You have me,” Savage reminded her.
“I’ll leave you two to settle yourselves to mating.Just remember, I’m only a thought away.”Jenna tapped her head.“All you need to do is give me a holler, and I’ll hear you.It might take me a wee bit to get to you, but I’ll do my best to do so in a timely fashion.”
“How do you recognize when one of your Fey is thinking or needing you?Do you just know, or is it by happenstance you hear them?”Savage asked.
“Luck has nothing to do with it, my friend.The Goddess has blessed us all with the ability to know certain things.For me, if I’ve left a door open, as I’ve currently done for Aurora, then it is easy for her to reach me.I don’t leave it open forever or both ways.Meaning, you can’t pop into my head, so don’t get any ideas.”The Fey wagged her finger at Savage.
Her male lifted his hands.“Trust me, I have no wish to be inside your mind.”
“Rude, but it is all good.I gotta go.My mates are going a bit crazy, wondering where I’ve run off to.We definitely don’t need two wild wolpires popping in here on a rampage because they’re horny.Toodaloo,” Jenna said in a cheery tone, then she flashed away, before popping back to touch the three shifters.“Forgot these guys.My bad.”
Aurora held her breath until she was sure Jenna was gone before she let out the laugh, and then she couldn’t stop.She wrapped her arms around her middle and continued laughing until tears streamed down her cheeks.Savage’s hand patted her back as he chuckled with her.
“I don’t know if I like her, love her, fear her, or what,” she gasped.
“Probably a mix of all those things.She’s a bit unhinged, I think.I can see why it takes two males to handle all her...crazy.”Savage ran his hand down her back, stopping to cup her ass.
“She’s gorgeous.No, that is an understatement.”Aurora stood up, turning to face him.
He grunted.“She’s pretty, but I think you’re the most stunning creature I’ve ever laid eyes on.”
Aurora stepped closer to him.“I think you’re the crazy one.”
He pulled her closer to him, his hands spanning her hips.“Hmm, I disagree.So, would you like to go down to the club or—”
Aurora shook her head.“Where do you live?”
