“Shi and I got this covered, so just sit tight and have a good time with Jim and Ula.” Nathan felt Sasha nod and then heard a breathy whisper against his ear.
“I wanna be grown up for you, Nathan.”
An ache tore at Nathan’s heart to hear that. He couldn’t even be sure if Sasha understood the full weight of saying those words, but God, Nathan wanted that too. Feeding time for the incubus was so much more than just a mutual agreement between friends.
After that Nathan couldn’t get out of the room fast enough.
“So, your wife got in this morning?” Ula asked warmly when Nathan and Shiarra stopped by the front desk. “That’s wonderful. You two have…some kind of serious business in town today?”
“Something like that,” Nathan said. “Ula, this is Shiarra. She’s actually Sasha’s…sister.” Nathan was glad he caught himself because ‘aunt’ would not make sense. “It’s how we met, taking care of our boys. Right, sweetheart?”
