Neri chuckled, which soon turned into a full-blown laugh and he watched her. Her face lit up with so much happiness he found he wanted her to be that happy all the time. And to do that, they had to eliminate Zahava, her crew, and every other threat to his mate and their family.

“You are beautiful, angel. I’m glad I found you and you’re in my life.”

“I love you, Hunter. You gave me a family; my new one and my old one where before I had loneliness and isolation.”

Hunter opened his mouth to tell her they had responsibilities, but she beat him to it.

“And I know, I know, we have to protect our family. Shower, then we’ll get dressed and head out.”

Neri’s bathroom flashed in Hunter’s mind and when he blinked, he held Neri against his body, but they were standing in the shower.

“Did… did you do that?” He asked.

Neri laughed and shook her head. Her hand slapped over her mouth, but her eyes lit up with humor as she searched his face.

“Nope, you did,” she answered.

“Well, that’s new.”

Which made Neri laugh harder. Whatever happened to him had given him the same ability as Neri and that meant Liv would prod him.

“Fuck.”

Neri sobered, and he shook his head.

“Liv will stick me with a needle and draw blood. I fucking hate needles.”
