The Strong Bond novel Chapter 43

"Oh come on Lena, it's not like I haven't snuck up on you before while you're sleeping. Plus, I had to lay there suffering" she stops for a moment like she debating her next words. Lena looks at her confused, wondering what she was talking about.

"From thick aroma of steamy erotic sex as I waited for you to wake up" Blair so bluntly states faking a discuss face. Lena's cheeks burned red from her embarrassing family member who had no filter on her mouth. "On top of that, you were moaning in your sleep! I guess your mate did not disappoint if you're carrying it over to your dreams" Blair adds smirking. That last comment put Lena over the edge. Grabbing the pillow on the bed, she throws it hard at her cousin knocking her back. Blair looks up surprised as Lena leaps at her with another pillow trying to smother her.

"Well this just got interesting" mumbled Ashton.

Both men stood there watching as the girls rustled on the bed. They weren't sure if they should stand there and enjoy the view or break them up.

"Have you heard of privacy or at least knocking" Lena yells hitting Blair again with the pillow.

"I was just kidding" Blair tries to tell her covering her head protectively with her arms still laughing.

"Alright I think you girls had enough" Damian says pulling his mate into his arms, and off of Blair. Ashton does the same with his own mate who didn't fight to get out of his arms like Damien's was.

"Come on, that's the most fun I had since I've been here" Blair whines.

"That's not what you were saying the other night" Ashton points out with a knowing smirk. Blair turns in his arms and smacks him in the chest making him chuckle. Quickly they both said their goodbyes, leaving the room. As soon as they were out Damian releases Lena, and walks over to shut the door. Lena blows out a huge breath of relief falling back onto the bed.

Damian couldn't help but admire the beautiful woman sprawled across as bad with his sheet barely is covering her nakedness. Her long thick brown hair spilled beautifully on the bed around her head. He slowly makes his way over to her while he controlled his desire, knowing that she would be sore from last night. Like a predator stalking his pray, he carefully crawls onto the bed and over to her.

Lena's heart sped up as her gorgeous mate creeps over her body holding his weight with his forearms. His eyes land on hers showing the desire he holds for her, which sends thrills through her.

"Good morning red" Damian greets huskily as he brushes few strands of her hair out of her face.

"Morning" Lena responds breathlessly.

"Good morning Clair" Damian answers catching Lena's full attention. She sat up watching him as he spoke to her Nana, but he wasn't saying much. Just 'yes' 'okay' 'I know' 'I will' then the call ended.

"Is everything okay?" Lena asks nervously.

"Your father is on his way over here with your brother, and lover boy"

"WHAT?" Lena screeches. "Please tell me this is some kind of cruel joke!" she says all tensed up. Her heart was pounding so fast in her chest, that she could feel it in her ears. Sweat started to form on her forehead from her body heating up. With that all happening she thought she might be having a heart attack.

"No, they just left your Nana's house before she called me" He told her like it was no big deal.

"Shit" is all she mange to say as flew off the bed not caring that the sheet was no longer covering her body. Thankfully Damian had his own bathroom connected to his room so no one would see her running naked like a mad woman.
