“Thanks,” Saylor says shyly. “It’s weird to have strangers know about me before I meet them.” She shakes her head.

“Get used to it in this group,” Blue mutters.

“I’m so glad you came out,” Harmony says. “All the drinks are on us. Just a welcome to the neighborhood. I’m glad I decided to leave the baby with the sitter and come with my mates.”

“I still don’t like her,” Blue growls.

“She is a perfectly nice girl,” Harmony snaps. “You gave her the third degree for over an hour. I’m surprised the poor girl stayed.”

“What if she leaves Alexa alone?” he responds.

“Blue, she won’t. She’s a daughter of one of the pack, for fuck’s sake,” Harmony says frustrated.

“Doesn’t matter,” he grumbles under his breath.

Harmony gave birth a few months ago and I imagine her mates are very protective of their first girl. Plus, she is the first girl born to a panther mating in years.

“She’s fine,” Jax assures them. “The girl’s father knows I would kill him if his daughter hurt mine.”

“Oh my god,” Harmony whips her head to him. “Did you tell him that?”

“Of course not,” he scoffs.

“It was heavily implied,” James offers.

“Fuck.” Jax sighs closing his eyes.

“That’s insane,” Harmony yells.

“What’s insane is that we are having this conversation, instead of at home with our princess,” Blue states.

I almost laughed. Blue is not the type to say the word princess, but he means it.

“Blue,” Harmony growls.

“What?”

“Clueless,” James whispers.

“Fuck off,” Blue snaps at him.

“All this time, you are still clueless about our mate,” James continues.

“Guys,” Jax says in a tired voice.

“Are you saying you wouldn't help Jax kill the girl’s father if she hurt Alexa?” Blue demands an answer.

“No, of course I would help him. The man would be nothing but pieces of flesh,” James says ruthlessly.

“Thank you.” Blue nods, his point proven.

“Will you guys shut up? Saylor is going to think we are nuts.” Harmony takes a step closer to Saylor and away from her mates.

“We aren’t?” James asks.

I look at Saylor watching their interaction. Her expression doesn’t saynuts. It saysfascination.

“Not at all.” Saylor touches Harmony’s arm, gaining her attention. “You have a baby?”
