Quote by Ruby Dixon

“I can’t stop the gasp that escapes me. “If you are going to mate, mate quietly,” Harrec calls out in a sleepy voice from across the cave. “Rukhar is trying to sleep.” Kate shushes him, and someone—Gail? Elly?—giggles. I pull away from Warrek’s mouth and bury my face against his neck in embarrassment. Oh my god. That’s totally my fault—I was loud. I’m not sure I know how to be quiet. “Sorry,” I whisper to Warrek. “No apologies. I was impatient. We will wait for privacy.” He gives me one more quick kiss and then presses his mouth to my forehead. “Sleep now.” “Yeah,” Kate says, giggling. “Sleep now.”

“We risked a lot to come here.” I think of the sucker wounds on his chest and the scratches that cover his body, and shudder. “I will always come back for you, my Llo. I will never leave your side.” I squeeze against him tighter, holding him closer. “I love you. I love you so much.” “Thank you, my mate.” It’s not the answer I expect from a declaration of love, and I look up at him in surprise. “Er, thank you?” “For giving my tribe new life. Here on this shore, and”—he touches my belly—“here, L’ren.” Okay, now I’m going to cry again.”

“Who sings next?” someone asks. “I will,” Megan says, standing up. She clears her throat dramatically and puts a hand out in front of her like an opera singer. “Me me me me me,” she sings, warming up. People giggle at her theatrics. Her mate Cashol nods. “It is a simple song, but I like it. The words are easy to remember.”
