Fraser shrugged one shoulder. “Not really. He’s a brave one, he is.”
“Forget about the cat for a second. Why are you really here?”
“Finn’s bringing Gina here shortly and I needed to bring the cat before you two left for your new homes.”
Fergus frowned. “Homes as in plural?”
Fraser nodded. “Aye, you’re going to share the old Sinclair place. One house for each of you. I’m sure Mum is going to be thrilled. With you out of the way, she’ll have the freedom to dote on Ross more.”
Ross Anderson was Holly’s father and a permanent human resident of Lochguard. “I thought you hated the idea of Mum and Ross?”
Fraser shrugged. “If they get together, then I can watch people’s expressions when I tell them I married my stepsister.”
He sighed. “And Holly is on board for this?”
“Not exactly. But I have ways of convincing her.”
Fergus put up a hand. “I don’t need to hear about your magic cock again.”
“Are you sure? It really is quite spectacular. I might even say it’s the envy of all males on Lochguard.”
“Treasure Holly, brother, because I don’t think there is another female alive who can put up with your annoying behavior.”
“Annoying? I prefer to think of it as charming. And Holly loves all of me.”
Before Fergus could reply, Finn’s voice filled the room from behind Fraser. “Sorry to interrupt your all-important talk of cocks, but I have a female here who’s anxious to know her future.”
Fergus’s dragon roared. It’s Gina.
Pushing Fraser to the side, Fergus craned his neck and met Gina’s green eyes. The female’s gaze was unreadable. Aware of everyone listening, Fergus nodded. “Hello, lass.”
At the term “lass” her lips thinned. It took everything he had not to laugh.
Holly pushed in front of Gina and pointed at Fraser. “Fraser, stop talking about how charming you are and bring the bloody cat out here.” She looked to Fergus. “We’ll wait down the hall to give you some privacy.”
Fraser sighed. “And I was looking forward to eavesdropping.”
Fergus punched his brother’s arm. “Get out. If I find out you were listening in, then I will challenge you in dragon form and win.”
His brother opened his mouth, but Finn cut him off. “Everyone out. Gina’s looking pale and if Arabella finds out we’re keeping her standing whilst you two argue, she’ll have my head. Not only that, Aunt Lorna will have a thing or two to say.”
Holly nodded. “Aye, she always has the wooden spoon handy.”
Instead of stating he was twenty-nine years old and wasn’t afraid of his mother, Fergus reached out a hand to Gina. It was time to work on earning the female’s trust. “Will you come, Gina? We have much to discuss.”
Straightening her shoulders, she took a step toward him but didn’t take his hand. “I’ll come, but I want Coal to stay with me. He’s been stressed enough for one day.”
Fraser lifted the cat carrier. “I’d give him more credit, Gina. He’s a braw one.”
“Braw?” Gina echoed as she plucked the carrier from Fraser’s hand. “I have no idea what that means.”
Fraser motioned toward Fergus. “My brother can explain it to you. Judging by the look in Finn’s eyes, I’d better leave or I’ll end up with some sort of crap task.”
Finn nodded. “Good you noticed.” His cousin looked to him. “Don’t take too long, Fergus. I want the human sitting down with her feet up within the next half-hour.”
Finn and the others left the room. The second the door closed, Gina made a beeline for the table on the far side of the room. The lass laid the contraption on the table and cooed to her cat.
With her bum slightly out and Gina bent over, all he wanted to do was come up behind her and cover her with his body. His dragon growled and flashed an image of their cock pumping in and out of their female.
