“Really?” And raised her eyebrows.
Without waiting for a response, she turned and smiled at Romy and Larkin who were trying not to laugh. She approached them, held her arms up, and waved her hands as if to tell them they had to bend over. Romy responded first, grabbed the small female, and lifted her off her feet. The woman smiled and rubbed her head against his cheek and said. “I am so happy for you.”
Romy set the woman down gently and she turned to her other mate and held up her arms and did the same thing. Larkin smiled and lifted her easily and nuzzled her neck also. Jordan frowned a little and hoped like hell that was just a friendly greeting or they were going to have a bitch fight in a few moments.
“Uh, my Queen? I do believe their mate is getting a little pissed.” The blonde man said and smirked.
Larkin sat her down and the small woman laughed. Hell, even that was adorable.
“Don"t be silly. Jordan knows that I would never make a move on her mates with her present. Besides, Kingo over there would probably have kittens.” Jordan laughed when the man with the long dark hair groaned again. “Darling, please.” He whined and the woman laughed louder.
“Romy, introduce us.” The woman demanded and looked at Jordan for the first time.
Her eyes were bright blue. Like the sky. Jordan had never seen anyone with that color of eyes. They were mesmerizing.
Romy and Larkin came and stood on either side of her and took her arms pulling her forward. “Jordan, I would like to present our Primes and their Second. This is Queen Ariel and King Ryan. The man standing behind them is Blaze, and yes, that is his real name. His mother named him that because he came so fast into the world. We have all heard the story.” Romy said laughing.
“Assholes.” The large man said and frowned. “No respect.” Ariel stepped forward, held out her arms, and hugged Jordan. Jordan looked at her mates and then made motions for her to rub her jaw against the woman"s. Jordan complied and then smiled when she heard the small woman purr.
Ryan stepped forward and did the same thing and she responded. Finally, Blaze stepped forward and hugged her. When all the pleasantries and introductions were made, Jordan took a deep breath. Ariel heard it and laughed.
“Well, enough of the formalities. Jordan, let's go and take a walk in the garden while the men prepare a feast for us. I love their garden.” She said and put her arm through Jordan"s and pulled her to the door that led to the garden.
Jordan looked behind her and grinned at her mates. She liked the Queen. Ariel pulled her out to the garden and then stooped and took a deep breath.
“Oh it is lovely.” Ariel said and walked around the path. Jordan followed and smiled.
The little woman wanted to talk to her about something; she just had to wait until she decided to speak up.
They approached a bench and the small woman sat down and patted the place beside her. Jordan took a seat and leaned back.
“So, Jordan, everything is pretty fucked up right now, huh?” Ariel said and then laughed when Jordan looked at her like she was crazy.
“Well, I guess that is one way to put it.” Jordan laughed.
“Ryan explained everything that went on. He said that basically everyone you know and loved has been keeping this secret from you?” Ariel said.
“Yeah.” Jordan said slowly.
“Okay then, people make mistakes; you seem like a reasonably intelligent person. I think you can work all of that out. But as the Prime female of the cat nation, I am telling you that since you mated to my two favorite members that you are family now. If you ever need anything, you call me. I will never lie to you and always tell you the truth.
Even if it means telling you your ass looks fat in jeans.” Ariel said.
Jordan laughed and then said, “Thanks.”
“In all seriousness, I can understand what you are going through. Before I met King of the Jungle in there, I was in a very sick
