Chapter 105
Mason
I took a deep breath to calm myself before wrapping Stella into my arms.
Seeing her with Xander. I almost lost it.
But then it was like a switch flipped on inside him and he realized he’d taken her from me
He thought I was actually her father, and I wasn’t about to correct him.
“As her father, I don’t like strangers picking her up,” I said, more bitterly than I meant to. “And my mater doesn’t either.”
I nodded toward Katie
The words had left my mouth before I could really think.
Xander and Zane exchanged questioning glances
I’d surprised them.
I waited for Katie to jump in and correct me, but she stayed quiet, her face unreadable.
I’d probably hear about that later
“Then why aren’t you formally mated?” Zane asked.
Good question.

Probably because we weren’t mates at all
But if they thought we were, then maybe they’d back off.
Xander and Zane had ogled her shamelessly as soon as she’d arrived, and they were so f ucking arrogant, they were probably already planning some way to double-team me and get her into their bed.
“This is rogue territory,” I said casually. “The rules aren’t the same here.”

He must’ve gone out and bought it just for this occasion.
The thought had me grinning like an idiot.
Truthfully, I hadn’t even thought about needing one.
Maybe subconsciously I knew Mason would handle anything I forgot.
And once again, he’d come through.
“I know you want to ask, so go ahead,” Mason said after a few minutes of silence.
He flashed me the same kind of mischievous grin he had the night we met.
His cheekiness was one of the many things I’d instantly fallen for
“Okay “I said, “Why did you tell Xander that Stella is your pup?”
Mason sighed.
“In case you didn’t notice, I kind of overreacted when he picked her up.”
The growling thing had been a little much.
Mason might’ve been flirty, but he didn’t strike me as the peacocking type.
But that possessive growl had also spoken to something deep inside of me. I’d loved that he’d been so protective of me and my baby.
“Did it bother you?” he asked.
“Not really” I answered truthfully
