Chapter 117 – Setting off?

Evgeniya

The SUV jostled me awake as it passed over the speed bump at the gate that led to the runway and private hangars of Toulouse-Blagnac airport. My breast collided with the cheek of my mate, Badru, snuggled right where I had left him.

‘Snuggled and drooling,’ Evva chuckled, feeling the slick damp patch in my cleavage.

The sensation threw my pregnancy hormones into overdrive and sparked the beginning of another damp patch, wanting something else entirely coating me from my mates. Time away from them hadn’t simply made my heart grow fonder. Every nerve within me wanted to be reacquainted with their touch.

A nose behind me grazed along the curve of my neck, starting at my collarbone and sweeping up to the soft patch of skin behind my ear, a low grumble following that I felt more than heard. Astennu’s lips tugged on the lobe of my ear nipping with his teeth and I was conscious of the tug of his smirk when my breath hitched.

“You had better be real this time,” Badru dreamily mumbled.

He nuzzled his face further into my cleavage and tightened his hold on my bare hip devoid of underwear under my shirt, his thumb tracing smooth firm circles on the crease of my thigh.

“Can you at least wait till you’re alone?” A gruff voice thick with sleep spoke behind us.

Like a hot rod to my ribs, my heavy eyelids broke open from the languid dreamy state to turn around and see Diego propped up on his elbows. The grimace at the corner of his mouth showed the ache deep in his bones, but the mischievous glint of his eye told me he had seen everything and was teasing.

The deep clearing of a throat, that could well have been a growl, spun my head to the front of the vehicle, spinning my poor brain along with the motion. His eyes were narrowed, but my father’s frown was not aimed at me but rather Astennu and Badru on either side of me. They dropped their hold on me like an electrical current had been run at the point of contact and they sat up straighter.

“Yes, sir,” Badru answered no statement uttered, a sweet blush staining his deep golden cheeks a darker shade over his automatic response to my father’s hard stare.

“Smooth moves, cabrón,” Catalina sniggered, pulling our vehicle up to the hangar and waiting for the doors to roll open and I caught how her sight lingered on the rearview mirror, no doubt catching her mate’s eyes.

As the door slid to reveal a private jet, my father’s frown deepened, changing from a playful annoyance to genuine worry. He looked uncertain of the contraption and had probably never seen one up close, let alone travelled in one.

‘How does he think we got here?’

‘This isn’t the time for your sass, wolf.’

‘It’s ok, dad,’ I quietly reached forward to lay a hand on his upper arm. ‘I haven’t been on one either. Not one I can remember anyway.’

When the SUV rolled forward to pull up as close as possible to the steps lowered from the aircraft by the pilot, Astennu tried to pull me to his lap, ready to slide his arms under and carry me bridal style. I wriggled away from him in protest, not wanting to be carried anywhere because of one specific lack of attire.
