187 Send Them Away

“Another hour, and they will be here,” Bell sighed, looking out the window of Ashleigh’s bedroom.

She shook out her hands nervously.

“Remember the last time Summer wolves arrived?” Ashleigh asked playfully.

Bell blushed at the memory of not just the first, but the second time she had greeted Galen by immediately shoving her tongue down his throat.

“Maybe you should greet him like that again.”

“That is not going to happen,” Bell stated firmly.

“Why not?” Ashleigh asked.

“Because his surrogate mother wasn’t standing beside him last time,” Bell replied with some irritation.

“So… then if Fiona wasn’t with him, if say, he came earlier, and Fiona wouldn’t be here for another hour or so… would you greet him like that?” Ashleigh asked.

Bell furrowed her brows.

“That is a weirdly specific scenario to throw out there….” Bell said.

Bell turned suspiciously to see what Ashleigh was up to and received a happy surprise instead.
