now,”
Adrianna whispered, trying to keep her eyes open.
Cade
caught her face in his hands and lovingly looked down at her. “Sleep baby, just rest.”
“I’m too
heavy, I need to get off you,” Adrianna urged.
“No you’re
not, don’t move baby, you feel so good right here.”
Adrianna
couldn’t argue with Cade because she loved the feeling of being in his
arms. She closed her eyes and
drifted off to sleep.
Cade
continued to listen as Adrianna’s body began to relax and she fell into a deep
sleep before he spoke to Samson.
Samson
looked into the review mirror making eye contact with Cade before he
spoke. “We have to protect her even
if she doesn’t know about it. I
feel that more danger is coming. We
need to mate with her as soon as we get to Ashland. I can’t wait any longer. It’s hard enough driving while you are
back there with her. I want to
touch her all the time. I don’t
know if I can be without her even for a minute. It’s taking all of my control. I never knew it would be this way.” Caring about Adrianna had opened
Samson’s heart in a way he thought would never happen. He had used women for sex and never
thought about how they felt. He
couldn’t let anything happen to her. He would always protect Adrianna—even from herself.
“I know
how you feel, I want her again. I
can’t get enough of her. She is
everything to me. We will protect
her, Samson, or die trying. Call
the Guards to get an update and I will call my people.”
Samson
checked in with his Guards asking for an update. Cade looked down at Adrianna, holding
her closer, listening to Samson talk to his Guards.
Samson got
off the phone then stated, “They said they never actually saw anyone but they
could tell that we are being followed somehow. I made sure all our vehicles were spell
protected and bullet proof. We will
need to find a home big enough for us. This home will need enough room to accommodate the Guards and the
Protectors. I want Adrianna
protected at all times, even when she doesn’t know she is. I have put a call into a family friend
who is a powerful witch. We need
some magic involved since we really don’t know who is after her. I know Adrianna has her own magic, but I
trust this witch to assist us in this. She will provide magic for our home in case something happens and
Adrianna can’t use hers.”
“I spoke
with Joshua Cahill before we left the Resort. He told me that the Nether World has a
vested interest in Adrianna. They
believe if Adrianna were to be brought down and her powers used for evil, then
it will throw the Nether World into darkness. It will change everything, as we know
it. They plan to send their Wardens
to watch over the Trinity . We will need Joshua; he is extraordinary
in his job. He can figure stuff out
before you can even think it. He’s
a good friend who trained with Adrianna too. She will feel comfortable with him, but
I have only heard stories of the Wardens,” Cade said.
Samson
asked, “What are the Wardens, really? I have only heard stories about them in my training. I have never seen one. I only know they are dangerous and
magical creatures that can manifest into anything. They are very powerful and show no
emotion. I don’t know how Adrianna
will deal with them, she’s so loving, even with the Guards and the Protectors
she shows her heart.”
“Let’s
worry about them later when we actually know what we are dealing with. Let’s find a house and get her
settled. I need to get with my pack,
talk with Mace about moving some of them here to Ashland and having Betas
running the different areas. There
is a lot to do when we arrive, but first is to mate with Adrianna and finish
the process.”
Samson
nodded understanding they had a lot to do. He got on his phone and started giving orders to his Guards. Cade lay back with Adrianna, stroking
her hair and back until they arrived at the halfway point then he would finish
the drive to Ashland.
Cade
gently woke up Adrianna,
