He didn’t seem the least bit worried about disappointing Tane. “We’re a newly mated couple, which takes priority over everything else. Your brother’s trip will just have to wait.”

Trinity made good on her promise over the next two days, and I took her to several of my favorite spots in the area. I hadn’t planned on going to fish at the lake since I was worried she’d be bored, but she had insisted on it after she’d gotten Cason to share a bunch of stories about me at dinner last night. Kace had set him up with an apartment over one of the shops downtown so he had somewhere to stay while Trinity and I were in the early stages of our mating. We needed privacy, but Trinity felt bad about my brother being kicked out of his own home and had invited him over to eat with us when she realized what had happened.
“After what your brother told me about the last time you guys went fishing, I was expecting them to be a lot bigger.” Trinity nudged the bucket where we’d thrown the fish we’d caught. “And more plentiful.”
“Cason may have exaggerated a little,” I admitted with a grin.
“Uh-huh.” Her brown eyes filled with humor. “I guess I shouldn’t be surprised since lots of guys embellish when it comes to size.”
I pulled my line out of the water, set my pole on the floor of the boat, and pulled hers out of her hand to place it next to mine. Once that was all done, I pulled her onto my lap, gripping her hips while she straddled me. “I want the name of any guy who dared to talk about their dick size around you.”
“Oh, yeah?” She twined her arms around my neck. “What would you do with the names?”
My answer was swift. “Hunt them down and make them pay for their mistake.”
“I guess it’s a good thing there aren’t any names since I was speaking of men in general and not anyone in particular.” She flashed me a sassy grin and winked.
“Careful, kitten.” Yanking her closer, I ground my hard-on against her pussy. “If you push my buttons hard enough, I’ll be forced to fuck my come into your pussy until it’s dripping down your legs. That’s the only thing that will soothe the territorial beast inside me.”
She brushed her lips against mine, wiggling on my lap. “You say that as though it’s a threat, but a few screaming orgasms sound like more than a good time to me.”
“To me, too.” I slid my hands to her ass and squeezed before lifting her off my lap and setting her in her seat. “Except there are too many boats out here for the kind of privacy I need to strip you bare and sink my cock inside your tight pussy. I’d hate to have to kill one of my pack mates because they accidentally saw you naked.”
“Excellent point.” I wrapped a lock of her dark hair around my finger when it slid down her arm after she tilted her head to the side. Her plump lips curved up into a playful grin. “Maybe we should come up with a different way for your wolf to work off his jealousy.”
I didn’t bother to deny that since I wasn’t embarrassed by it. Fated mates tended to be possessive by nature, and I assumed that Trinity wouldn’t appreciate the idea of another woman flirting with me. “I’m open to suggestions.”
“How about we ditch the fishing poles and let our animals out?” She wagged her brows. “My tiger would love to spend some time with your wolf.”
Fur brushed the inside of my skin. “I fucking love that idea.”
I moved to the back of the boat and started up the motor, cranking it as fast as we could go. We’d already spent several hours on the water, which was longer than I’d expected Trinity to last. “You seemed to enjoy fishing even though we barely caught anything.”
“It was more fun than I thought it would be,” she admitted with a smile. “Just you and me without any interruptions except for a nibble from a fish every once in a while.”
I refrained from pointing out that with the hectic pace of her life in New York City, there were bound to be plenty of roadblocks in the way of us getting one-on-one time together. I didn’t want to pressure her about the possibility of staying in Timber Ridge, especially not when she was being such a good sport about me showing her around. But I was curious about one thing. “What do you do when your tiger needs to run? I can’t imagine New York has many places where it’s safe to shift.”
“The city, no. But the state, yes.” She tossed a line onto the dock when I pulled the boat alongside the wood structure. “My family has some property Upstate that we use for monthly runs.”
