“I hope he and that witch Mercedes both get what is coming to them,” Laurent said fiercely. “I have never forgiven her for trying to poison you.”
“But if she hadn’t, we never would’ve gotten together in the first place,” Paul pointed out. “I never would have gone back to find you again if I hadn’t needed you to suck out the poison. We should send her a fucking thank-you card.”
“Hmmph.” Laurent lifted his chin. “The only thank-you she will receive from me is the fact that I do not choose to go back to Miami and drain her dry while she sleeps.”
“Dios, listen to you.” Paul laughed. “Getting all tough.”
Laurent gave him a mock glare. “You are not the only one who can be fierce and protective, mon amour. I would kill anyone who tried to harm you, no matter what benefit ultimately came to us through the attempt.”
“Paul has a point though, mein liebling,” Nana said. “If the witch hadn’t infected Paul with the Wolf’s Bane, you never would have found your Heart’s Blood. I know you had to swim through deep waters and endure many trials to be together but that is the way it always is when you find your Coeur de Sang.” “Yes, Nana, so you have told me many times.” Laurent smiled at her and squeezed Paul’s hand again. “And I am more than happy that you have been proven right. For now that I have my wolf, I will never let him go.”
“You don’t have to worry about that, babe. I’m not going anywhere.” Paul leaned over and gave him a kiss that Laurent couldn’t help returning with passion.
Nana laughed and rose from the highbacked chair she’d been sitting in. “And on that note perhaps the two of you ought to retire to the guest suite downstairs. I’ve had the black satin sheets put on for you again, although I would ask you to be mindful of my lace bedspread.”
“We are going.” Laurent stood and pulled Paul to his feet. “We cannot get there fast enough. Come, my wolf.”
“Right behind you, babe.” Paul grinned at Nana. “Thanks again for letting us stay. I guess we’ll see you later.”
She cocked an eyebrow at him. “Much later I assume.”
Laurent smiled. “I believe you assume correctly, Nana. Good day.” And he led his lover down the stairs to the room and the bed that was waiting for them.
