“Oh my god,” Emiliano commented softly.
“They were just kissing, Aunt V,” Alessandro tried to reason with her.
“Knowing Hazel her hormones are going to go all out of whack and boys, I love you, but if I have to see your cocks again there isn’t enough weed in the world to help me recover from that. I’m already scarred from getting the marriage license dealt with during the last heat.”
“Can we talk about something besides my dick?” Emiliano asked dryly.
“And look, we’re at Sienna’s!” Alessandro called out, redirecting the conversation.
Sienna waved as she stood up, having waited on the steps for us. King was beside her and after saying a few things he kissed her softly then headed inside.
“Hey, guys!” she greeted us, opening the door to sit next to Romeo and me. She settled her small backpack purse at her feet. “I’m excited.”
“You have snacks with you?” Emiliano asked, looking over his shoulder at the omega that just joined us.
“Yep,” she nodded. “King packed some up for me before we came outside. I’ve got everything I need.”
“If you need more just let us know,” Alessandro also commented as he headed to pick up Teagan.
It was awesome how our packs had somehow become this big, extended family. All of our people had big personalities.
Hell, Hazel’s pack ran the local mob and mine were in a MC. Sienna’s pack was into some shady shit with both, though I didn’t know the details for all of it.
We made quite the hodge-podge of people but it all worked.
Sienna embraced the brothers she had gained, thriving with their concern and care when her actual sister had treated her so badly.
Hazel was settling in and finally feeling comfortable in her own skin for the first time in years. As for myself… I felt bittersweet about it all. I was the caretaker of the group and it was starting to feel as if they didn’t need me anymore.
I loved that they were happy but I had always been the person they turned to and now… Now I wasn’t.
Though, there was still Teagan… The wild woman. The nomad who just wanted freedom and to have a good time.
She was hiding something.
I couldn’t put my finger on it but something was off. Her deflections when I asked what was going on wasn’t like her. I swallowed down my concern as Teagan joined us and then we were off to the tattoo shop.
Everyone started talking a mile a minute, tossing around ideas for tattoos as amusement settled on Emiliano’s face. He looked like he was having the time of his life as he listened to everyone come up with ideas and big expectations.
“Any idea what you’re going to get?” Romeo asked.
I glanced over at him. He was watching me closely, his blue eyes calm while he waited for my answer. He was covered in tattoos, his arms and torso decorated in all kinds of designs. Hell, I didn’t even have an idea ofwhereI wanted a tattoo, much lesswhatI was going to have inked onto my skin forever.
“I could come up with a few ideas for you,” he purred, making me shake my head.
“Good ones?” I countered in amusement. “I’m not getting your name or anything like that.”
“That is the kiss of death to any relationship,” Emiliano commented. Romeo placed a hand over his heart and shot me a mock-offended look.
“Babe, I’m covered in tattoos. Iknowtattoos. Do you not trust me?”
“Depends on what your suggestion is,” I told him seriously, somehow managing to keep a straight face.
“He’s done all of my tattoos,” Romeo nodded at the man in front of him. “He would never let you get one that’s bad. Plus, he’s so skilled even a shitty idea will turn out amazing.”
“Still not giving you a discount on your next session, Romeo.”
“I’m bringing you this big group and I don’t even get a family discount?!”
