Chapter 16: Traveling with the Crestas

Lilia POV

The snow-capped mountain in the distance became Lilia’s focus while traveling with Dane’s brothers. Its gleaming peak helped distract her from imagining every bad thing that could happen to Dane.

Dane’s brothers also qualified as distractions.

Kyon rode beside her, completely naked on Dane’s horse, while his brothers scouted ahead. “You, ah, don’t mind if I’m naked, do you?” he asked.

She shrugged. “I told Dane I’d follow your customs when we reached your home.”

Kyon’s vivid brown eyes were deep enough to drown in. Like Dane, he was physical perfection in human and wolf form. “I take it that Dane behaved himself outside our lands.”

“He was just fine in Wildefell,” she said with a blush.

His eyes widened. “That’s all the way on the other side of the forest. He didn’t mention his business was going to take him there.”

Lilia licked her parched lips. She didn’t know what to say to that.
