“No, should I?”
Sarah laughed and then stood again. At the top of her lungs she yelled out, “Axel get your ass in here! I need you!”
In less than two minutes Axel was tearing into the room, weapons in hand.
“What is it? What happened?”
Sarah pushed the hand down with the sword and leaned up to kiss the underside of his chin.
“Just needed you for a second.”
“Oh,” Axel leaned down and kissed Sarah hard and fast, “I only have a moment, we are in a meeting with Rafe. What can I do for you?”
“Chloe asked about your life mate mark,” Sarah blinked up at Alex with a wicked grin on her face.
Zack who had followed Axel into the room moved to sweep Chloe into his arms.
“Fuck no! You are not showing your ass to Chloe!”
“Ass?” Chloe’s face flushed, and she glared at Sarah who was cackling as Axel shook his head in exasperation.
“Sarah wanted to make sure that everyone knew who I belonged to,” Axel scooped Sarah up just as Zack had. “She marked her name on my ass.”
Chloe burst out laughing, “Your ass has Sarah’s name on it?”
Axel sighed, “Sure does.”
“Now, for more pressing matters,” Zack said with a growl, “Who taught my mother what a quickie was?”
Needless to say, as Rafe waited with increasing frustration, several ‘quickies’ were happening that were not so very quick.
He was alone when the report came through.
“The subject is awake,” Von cleared his throat. “Are you still a gambling man?”
