Chapter 6
Kyro was a nervous wreck. He wasn’t sure whether Hanna would agree to it or not. He had hope, but he didn’t know for sure. Besides, she was a strong-willed woman. It was just one of the things he and his brother loved about her.
Many women around Vella Cove were known for throwing themselves at him and Derek for years. None of them ever interested him or his brother. There was no fun when women wanted to give themselves away so easily. Now, there was a thrill of the chase that his wolf craved, and Hanna had given them a lot to chase over the years.
They had tracked her down in Miami since they needed to make sure she was safe and stayed out of trouble. They had friends in the pack down in South Florida, so they knew her whereabouts.
Neither Kyro nor Derek was too thrilled about the people she worked with, but they had to give her space. They didn’t want to frighten her or make her feel like she was obligated to be with them just because they said she was their mate.
She had to make the active choice to be with them. There was no other way, no matter how much he wanted to pull her out of that fucked-up Coven and bring her back to Vella Cove where she belonged, where she needed to stay and be with them.
“What if she doesn’t show?” Kyro asked his brother.
“That’s why we had Dad go instead of us,” Derek said. “She’ll be more willing to help by knowing she’ll be doing a favor for the mayor rather than being here because her mates want her nearby. Pretty sure that would freak her out.”
“What if she wants to bail?”
“Our mate doesn’t seem like the type to leave when people need her. Trust her. We both need to do that.”
“The problem is how do we get her to trust us?”
Derek didn’t have an answer for that one. They were in new territory when it came to Hanna.
Tristan and Barbara were scheduled to land in a few minutes, and Kyro hoped his plans worked.
His wolf scented Hanna before he saw her. “She’s here,” he said. Her smell alone was enough to make him hard and ache for her. Kyro hoped he had enough strength to not take her right there on the damn conveyor belt with everyone’s the luggage. Let them watch for all he cared, as long as he had her.
“I smell her, too,” Derek said. “There.”
Kyro turned to see Hanna making her way through the crowd of people who just landed. His eyes fell to the sexy way her body swayed when she walked, from her tempting hips to those luscious curves. He wanted her naked and against them. From the tense way Derek stood, they were in sync on that idea.
“I should have known you two would be here,” Hanna said when she reached them.
“What’s wrong? We still make you nervous?” Kyro teased. He enjoyed the way her cheeks heated up and wondered if her ass would take a similar color if he palmed it just right.
“I’m not nervous. More like frustrated.”
“Sexually?” Derek asked. “I think you know we can take care of that. All you have to do is ask.”
Kyro could smell her desire pouring off of her. His wolf yelped at being held back from what belonged to them.
Soon, he told his wolf.Calm the hell down before you make us do something inappropriate in an airport.
“I won’t be asking for anything,” she said, defiance in her face as she dug her hands into her jean pockets.
Kyro noticed the bracelet she wore with the symbols of wolves linked in it, and that made him smile. Their father was a genius. She wore something of theirs and didn’t even know it. That particular bracelet had been given to their mother by a witch his family trusted. It made his wolf proud that Hanna had it on.
“You’re right,” Kyro said. “Next time we get you naked, you’ll be begging, not asking.”
“Is that a challenge?” she asked.
“It’s a promise, gorgeous,” Derek said. He leaned over and whispered in Hanna’s ear, but Kyro could hear him clearly. “It’s a definite promise, and we never break a promise.”
Her eyes widened, but Kyro caught the pleasurable shiver that passed over her.
“Derek! Kyro!” Barbara Wolfe held her arms out as she greeted them, a big smile on her face.
“Good to see you, Barbara,” Derek said hugging her.
