Slade's Feisty Mate (Saber Chronicles Book Two) (7 page)

“She just found her truemate,” Slade
said.

“But she didn’t pass out like you did,”
Gretchen pointed out. She looked to the stairs where a beautiful
saber-tooth tiger shifter stalked upward. Some of the patrons on
the stairs lurched away, screaming, but others seemed unfazed.
Gretchen figured the ones who didn’t care were supes, not at all
surprised to see a shifter. Even a nearly extinct one.

“Maybe it’s different for females,” Alaric
said. “Or she’s better at controlling her beast and not passing out
than Slade.”

Slade flipped his brother off.

“What the hell!” Galen said, throwing his
hands into the air. “I have a dream about pink and gold, and she
finds her fucking mate in a club
before
I do. In what
universe is that fair?”

“Who do you think her mate is?” Gretchen
asked.

“Someone she scented on that woman,” Aubrey
said. “Let’s go find out.”

Lia had disappeared onto the private floor,
causing a rush of panicked people to flood the stairs. Gretchen
snorted inwardly at how easily humans were scared. If they knew
anything about shifters, they’d know the beautiful tigress was on
the prowl for her mate and not interested in making a snack out of
anyone.

“That was interesting,” she whispered to
Slade.

“She’ll be fine. I’m glad she found her
mate.”

“Un-fucking-believable,” Galen groused. “I
need a drink. Or ten.”

The second floor of the club, where Caleb
hung out, was a wide open space with a private bar, guards at the
top of the stairs, and plenty of comfortable seating. As the guards
let them through to the floor, Gretchen chuckled as she saw Lia
weaving her way in and out of the crowd of mostly shifters, who
ignored her as they danced and drank.

“I see a private area over there,” Slade
said. He tugged her away from his family. “We’ll see you
later.”

“Don’t you want to meet Caleb and see what
Lia is up to?” Alaric asked.

“My mate needs some attention. I haven’t
tasted her in hours.”

Aubrey gave Gretchen a thumbs up as Alaric
shook his head.

Slade led her to one of the empty lounges
against the wall. Sheer black curtains gave the illusion of
privacy. A waitress appeared. “Can I get you anything?”

“Nothing right now,” Slade said.

The leather lounge was curved and had a wide
seat. As Gretchen sat down, scooting to the back of the lounge,
Slade grabbed the sheer curtains and closed them. The music still
pulsed from the dance floor, but the curtains made her feel as
though they were in their own little world.

Slade knelt next to her and cupped her face,
tilting it toward him. “Fuck you’re gorgeous.”

“You say the sweetest things.”

He growled softly. “I do. And about not
wearing panties?”

“Yes?” She drawled the word.

“For future reference, I love that.”

She wiggled her brows. “Would you go commando
for me?”

“Who says I’m not already?”

Reaching for his zipper, she smiled as he
kissed her, devouring her in a deep kiss that seared her right to
her soul.

It was going to be a very,
very
good
night.

The End

Saber Chronicles Book Three

Lia Carmichael is thrilled two of her three
brothers have found their truemates. As soon as her third brother
finds his, she’ll get the mating dreams that are part of being a
saber-tooth tiger shifter. Fate has other plans, when she goes to a
club with her new family and scents her mate – on another woman!
Hell hath no fury like a pissed off saber-tooth tiger shifter, and
she’s one pissed off cat.

As vampire master of the city of Belle Terra,
Caleb Night has seen just about everything. When a gorgeous
saber-tooth tiger female finds him in his private club, he knows
he’s staring into the golden eyes of his truemate. He never
expected his truemate to be a shifter, but nothing makes him hotter
than when she purrs.

When a master vampire and a saber-tooth
tigress get together, expect lots of neck biting and purring.
