Lorna didn’t disagree. Gently wrapping her talons around Ross’s middle, she lifted and placed him as far as she could reach. When she released him, she put up a paw. Ross nodded. “Aye, I understand. While you shift, I’ll fetch your clothes.”

As the handsome, mature human scrambled to pick up her discarded clothing, warmth tugged at her heart. Ross may not be a dragon-shifter, but he still would look after his female.

The only question was whether Lorna would find the balance between him and her children. As much as she cared for Ross, her children would always come first.

Imagining her snout shrinking, her wings morphing into her back, and her talons retreating to fingernails, Lorna decided she’d find out sooner rather than later.

Standing in the chilly air, Lorna wrapped her arms around her body. Ross rushed forth and wrapped her coat around her shoulders before running his hands to her lower back under the material and pulling her close. She tried to narrow her eyes but failed. “Someone has wandering hands.”

Grinning, Ross gently squeezed her waist. “And you say that like it’s a bad thing.”

“My breasts are off limits, for now, Anderson. Try it, and see what happens.”

Ross chuckled. “We’ll save those beauties for later.” Nuzzling her cheek, he murmured, “But I’m impatient for another kiss.”

Between his heat and scent, Lorna wanted nothing more than to curl up against him and revel in his long arms around her. But before she could do that, she needed a MacKenzie family meeting.

However, she tilted her head toward Ross and whispered, “Just one and then we need to head back. Everyone is due for dinner soon, and you know what happens when the MacKenzie horde doesn’t eat on time.”

“Aye, all hell breaks loose.”

She lightly slapped his chest. “That is my family you’re talking about.”

“They are, but I say it with love.”

She snorted. “Right, if you say so. I might just take back my request for a kiss.”

“No bloody way I’m allowing that to happen,” Ross growled before taking her lips in a rough kiss.

Lorna sighed at his touch and welcomed his tongue. The human didn’t hesitate before dominating her mouth.

Her dragon spoke up. Just imagine what else he can do with that tongue.

Pervy dragon.

That’s what happens after so many years of celibacy. When can we have him? All of him?

Maybe tonight. I’ll talk to the kids at dinner.

Before her dragon could reply, Ross moved a hand to her left arse cheek an

d squeezed. Lorna moaned as she pulled Ross closer.

Now that she’d overcome her fear and guilt, Lorna was nearly as impatient as her dragon to get her human naked and above her.

Chapter Four

Once Lorna was dressed again, Ross threaded his fingers through hers. He waited to see if she would pull away or if she’d allow him to make such a claim in front of the clan.

She looked down at their clasped hands and then met his gaze. Raising her brows, she asked, “Make very certain of this, Ross. Not everyone is going to welcome you with open arms. They may have tolerated you during your recovery and because of Holly, but stealing away one of their females is quite different.”

“Are you talking about that bloke from this morning?”

Lorna blinked. “You saw that?”

“Aye, I did. Who is he?”

“Well, his name is Stuart MacKay and once upon a time, I was going to mate him.”
