the sensation of having something between them and their mate, or just the possessive nature of the
beast. I only have what Abby s told me about Tah to go on. And for them, it was a little of both, I
think.
I& Amia felt as if she couldn t catch her breath.
It s okay, Abby assured her, stepping up to the table and patting her knee. It s a lot to take
in.
Diane pushed a cart with a machine on it toward them. I should be able to get a good estimate
of how close you are to ovulation by looking at your ovaries. That is, if you want me to check?
Is there a way to prevent pregnancy? Amia asked. I mean would wearing a condom work?
Birth control pills?
I don t know, Diane admitted.
I was pregnant by the time I met Diane, Abby said. But condoms were a no-go for Tah and
me. I m pretty sure he would have shredded through them. I m not sure what you ve experienced, but
Tah s& penis& was different when I was ovulating. And I m terrifying you again. Shoot! I m sorry,
Amia.
Amia swallowed. Reno was well-endowed, but she was pretty sure he wouldn t shred
anything.
There are a few changes we think may occur during the mate s time of ovulation, to ensure
pregnancy, Diane explained.
But you don t know? Amia asked.
I was ovulating when Tah and I were first together, Abby said. That had a huge effect on
us.
We believe the animal is more dominant during the mating cycle when the chosen female is
ovulating. The sex drive increases to the point you might have sex a dozen times in a twenty-four hour
period.
Jesus. Amia uttered, interrupting Diane.
You ll want it, Abby said. Trust me. You re body will crave it just as much as his does.
Christ, she already wanted him all the time and had the feeling it was mutual. He was
possessive and dominant, yet patient and giving, and she didn t want that to change. She respected
what they were trying to do. They wanted to let her know what she might be in for. In a way, she took
it to mean they accepted her both as Reno s mate and part of their group or pride or whatever they
considered themselves. But it also made her uncomfortable. There were some things that should
remain private.
Does Reno know any of this?
Some of it, Diane confirmed.
Then no offense to either of you, but I think I ll wait and talk to him about all this.
Diane nodded.
Abby smiled. I understand completely. I m the same way with Tah. But I want you to know
that if you ever need someone to talk to, I m here for you. We re family now, like sisters.
Amia knew her concept of family differed vastly from most peoples, but she smiled and
nodded. She d never had a sister before.
Good, good, you re still here. A short man with a head full of gray hair almost bounced into
the room. You ve taken blood. Good. Good. He walked right up to the table and poked his finger
against her lip until she opened her mouth. His fingers nudged her teeth while he peered over his
glasses into her mouth. Hmmm&
He murmured, and she leaned back, snapping her teeth together and giving a growl that would
probably impress her mate if he were there to hear it.
Now, now. None of that. I didn t see any cavities. Good strong teeth.
I don t have any fillings, Amia confirmed.
What s going on Professor? Abby asked.
Logan called. They ve isolated the point of the signal going out. It s right here, in this room.
Amia s eyes widened. It s on me?
The Professor nodded as he ran his eyes over her. The only question is where have they
hidden it.
Chapter Eleven
Tah and Reno walked from the house toward the area where the malfunctioning sensor was.
Reno expected Tah to shift, but he didn t. He seemed content to walk with Reno, making Reno suspect
there was something more on his mind. They d just stepped into the trees when Tah finally spoke.
I m terrified.
Reno didn t have to ask why or what. He knew. There was only one thing that had the power to
make Tah afraid.
Abby.
Tah nodded, though Reno hadn t made it a question. The baby is growing too fast. Her body
can t keep up. She s depleted and exhausted. Hell, even Diane s worried about the toll this pregnancy
is taking on Abby. Tah shifted his shoulders as if he carried the weight of the world on them. He
lifted his hands and cupped them behind his head. I m terrified of losing her.
What does Abby say?
There was no humor in the barked laugh Tah gave. She says everything will be fine. He
turned to face Reno. But I see the dark circles, the weariness and fatigue stamped on her face. She
barely sleeps, and when she does, she s restless. Her back aches constantly. She s getting bigger, yet
she s losing weight. I can t lose her. I won t survive that. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
