Page 115 of Mating at Midnight: Book 1

I expected a loss from guests wanting refunds but when that didn’t happen, I let nature take its course and business has been booming since.

That night the four of us had dinner in our villa. We ordered room service, then hung out by the pool. When the sun went down, we hit the beach under a cloud free night. Unbeknownst to Nyah or I it was a full moon.

Nyah and I walked hand-in-hand at the edge of the water while Ballian and Skia chased the waves.

“If they start to drown and we have to choose which one to save, it’s going to be Skia,” I laughed.

“I heard that,” Ballian shouts over the waves.

“And I wasn’t trying to hide it either,” Braxton threw back.

“Braxton,” Nyah exclaimed, swatting my arm. “I can’t believe you just said that.”

I shrugged my shoulders, continuing to laugh knowing I would never let anything like that happen to Ballian.

“Well, that’s not how it works,” Nyah said. “You know how to swim, right?”

“You know I do.”

“And because you do, so does Ballian. Same goes with me and Skia. Any abilities’ we have that our destined wolves didn’t have before, they now have and vice versa. I can totally see why Lord Odin put the two of them together. You two bump headsbecause you are so much alike. Your relationship with Ballian almost reminds me of you and Levi’s except this one is on a deeper level but could never take away from the connection you have with Levi. Those two; Levi and Ballian are who Lord Odin saw fit to stand alongside of you, other than me, of course.”

“Indeed,” I quipped.

We laughed, walking a bit more as a strange sensation started to creep through my very essence. I stopped to face Nyah. Her curious eyes scanned over me as I took her free hand in mine, then kissed her knuckles.

“Do you feel that?” I asked, pulling Nyah close so she could feel my hardening member.

Nyah’s eyes widened as I grinded my hips into hers.

“I feel that and something else,” she purred, caressing my shirt-covered chest. “What are you going to do about it Mr. Hillard?”

I swiftly pick her up, then toss her over my shoulder causing Nyah to let out a fit of laughter.

“Braxton, wait,” she laughed while hitting my back.

“Nope, you asked what I was going to do about it, and I’ve always been a believer of I can show you better than tell you,” I grunted, swatting her firm ass then heading towards the villa.

Ballian happened to look up to see me carrying Nyah away. “Where are you going?”

“To the promised land,” I chuckled.

That night, I took Nyah as many times as she would let me until we collapsed onto the bed and succumbed to a depleted sexual coma.

After that, our staycation nights ended the same way. Ballian and Skia caught on and left us to do their own thing once we were finished with dinner.

“Attention, passengers. We are thirty minutes away from landing. Please begin to secure your seatbelts,” Nita’s voice says through the overhead speakers.

I make haste to the stairs and start going down them. About halfway, I yell, “We’re landing soon, so brace yourselves.”

“Yeah, yeah,” Ballian says back, unseen. “We heard. Now go away.”

That damn destined wolf of mine,I laughed to myself, shaking my head.

“Since you feel that way, then I hope we encounter some turbulence that knocks you on your big ass,” I teased.

Ballian’s deep laughter echoed around the room downstairs.

“And if that happens, then I hope your seatbelt malfunctions causing you to nose dive hard onto the floor resulting in you having two black-eyes and a crooked nose line not even the best cosmetic surgeons can fix.”
