He pulled back from her and rested his forehead on hers.
“Well, one thing you have to learn about witches, is that we always band together,” she divulged. There were things they were going to have teach each other. As a priestess, she would not back down and hide behind anyone. She was powerful and could protect the two of them. “We go out there together.”
Maxius growled low and dropped his gaze to the sheet tucked around her.
“You’ll need some clothes. You’re not going out there with just a sheet on.” He grunted. A scowl was etched deep in his face.
“I wouldn’t think of it.” She backed away from him, closing her eyes. She released her hold on her energy that was demanding to burst free and allowed her full strength to come forth.
With Fae blood running through her veins, she could show off a few of her talents she’d inherited from her great-grandmother.
She conjured clothing. Black skin-tight pants that moved easily with her, a matching sleeveless tunic with knee-high boots.
Opening her eyes, she rested her hands on her waist and laughed at the shocked expression on Maxius’s face.
“What the hell—”
“There’s much you have to learn about me, Alpha,” she snickered, enjoying his amazement. “Now, as I was saying, we go out there together.”
She spun on her heel and walked to her bedroom door. She paused and glanced over her shoulder.
“Coming?”

“Well, where are they?” Kamila asked, standing next to Maxius.
“Were you thinking there would be a welcoming party?” he questioned.
They stood in the middle of the yard. The sun was on the horizon, on its way up. The sky was filled with purple and pink hues as the sun rose slowly.
“Can you sense them still?” She turned her attention to him. Her fiery eyes were glowing with the flames of her anger.
His little mate was one spitfire.
He hadn’t wanted to leave her bed, but he sensed the wolves out there. He hadn’t slept a wink. Instead, Maxius had watched his beautiful mate sleep.
She’d snuggled into his embrace, and his wolf had settled down with her near. If he could have, he would hold her for all eternity.
Instead, the threat to her coven was out there in the woods.
“They are in the woods. They are not going to leave the comfort of the brush.”
“So we go to them,” she growled.
Maxius had to rein in the desire for his mate. He was still naked, not having brought clothes with him to her place. He had arrived in his wolf form, roaming the perimeter of her land to ensure she was safe. The plan had to been to return home once he had assured his animal she was not in danger.
The second he had seen her walk out of the house in her thin robe, his plans immediately changed.
He had to have her.
Tasting her sweet flesh when he claimed her was heaven. The memory of her tight, wet heat wrapped around his cock rushed back to him. He had to push the memory down. It wouldn’t do to run into a fight with a raging erection.
Maxius would have rather stayed in the bed and continued the consummation of their union, but now they were outside about to defend her coven.
His wolf was irate.
It paced back and forth inside him, demanding blood.
