“I do, and that is fantastic to hear.” I threw a thumbs-up sign to Leo, who sat at the table watching me take the call. His smile lit up the room. “Make sure to let me know how it goes. Should we come into the station?”

“Nah. We can handle this. But if anything changes, I’ll let you know. How’s Leo holding up?”

“We are both doing well. Lots of binge-watching shows, shifting, and snacking.” I laughed.

“And a bit of—”

“Hey, Ashton. Never mind Dean, he lost his civilized-conversation card. I’m glad you guys are doing well. We’ll call you back with any updates.” Willa must have taken the phone from Dean; she had to do that often lately. After a brief conversation, I hung up.

“Things are looking up.” I took Leo into my arms and buried my nose into his golden locks. “They think they have a good chance of finding the main suspects in the case soon.”

“That’s amazing news.”

“Still want to go shift?” I nuzzled into his neck and kissed him on the mating mark I’d left weeks ago. “Or maybe we can do something else first.”

“I like the idea of something else.” Leo rubbed himself against me. “Binge-watching again?”

“I was thinking something a little more naked.” I grabbed his ass and pulled him closer. “I thought I could bury myself deep inside your ass and make you scream my name.”

“That is definitely the best idea ever.” Leo breathed out.

Whipping my shirt off, I threw it to the ground while I took my mate’s mouth. My hands were busy unbuttoning his shirt and sliding it off his shoulders. “Get these clothes off now.”

“Yes, sir.” Leo rolled his eyes but obeyed my command, stripping out of his pants as I undid mine.

“Fuck, you are gorgeous.” My mate’s body was lean and toned. The smooth bared skin was the hottest thing I ever saw. “I’m one lucky alpha.”

“You aren’t too shabby yourself, alpha.” Leo bit his lip and stared at my erect cock. “Now, less talking and more fucking.”

“Yes, sir.” I grabbed him by the waist and turned him around, bending him over the kitchen table. I rubbed my cock over his hole and saw that he was already stretched for me. “Did you get yourself ready for me?”

“I did.” Leo moaned and shoved his ass out, begging for my cock. “Come on, Ashton, I need you.”

I thrust in and held onto his hip with one hand, pushing down on his back with the other, with just enough pressure as he liked it. As our pleasure climbed, I changed up the rhythm a bit and pulled him up so his back was flush to my chest and my hand climbed up to his throat. A growl of possession erupted from my dragon. “You are mine.”

“Only yours.” Leo’s lion purred. We found that our shifter sides could communicate with each other, and since then, we’d noticed that the primal side of us came out a lot during sex. “Harder.”

I pounded into him quick and hard and the moans coming from Leo let me know I was hitting the right spot inside him. Before long, we were both at our climax and the table was covered in his cum.

“Let me rest a moment and I’ll clean that up.” I rested my forehead on his back and let myself catch my breath.

“There’s a towel right here.” Leo motioned to the chair next to us, which had the towel I used after our last shower, on it. “Take your time. But they might want to refurnish this house after we leave here. I think we have now christened every room.”

“We have.” I chuckled and slowly pulled out of my mate. “At this point, maybe I should just buy the cabin from the GSC and we can stay here forever. We marked it; it’s ours now.”

“I wish.” Leo handed me the towel after wiping himself off. “Here you go. I’m going to go shower.”

Kissing me, Leo left the kitchen and the mess for me to clean up. I didn’t mind. I would be done in a minute anyway and then join him in the shower, and he knew that. But as I wiped up the remnants of our lovemaking, I thought about what I had said.

Maybe we should buy this place. It really can be our home.

Chapter Eleven

Leo

“Augh. I feel like I haven’t been able to eat breakfast in days.” I moaned over my position, hovering over the toilet. “Why am I sick? Do you think I have the flu? Or is it a side effect of the spell?”

My sexy but absolutely aggravating mate smirked at me from the doorframe. “It could be. Or—”
