pillows into a fort in the center of the bed. That should do it.
Kata inched forward and settled Natusya onto the mattress.
Bandit retrieved a cotton throw from a chair nestled in a corner and tucked the
blanket halfway up Natusya s back. Unable to resist, he dropped a kiss on the tot s pink
cheek.
Should we leave the lights on? He hesitated, his thumb and forefinger on the
switch for the bedside lamp.
Maybe just the far one.
Bandit turned off the light, stepped back, and draped his arm around Kata s
shoulder. He thanked every deity he knew of for the impossibly unanticipated perfect
moment. Him and his mate watching their little angel sleep. Though he yearned to
prolong the unexpected and blissful slice of paradise, Bandit forced himself to guide
Kata into the hallway. He left the door slightly ajar.
Tania and Sidonie explained mate locking to me.
Kata s soft statement did what the military, his unit, and his fellow Prymal
members hadn t been able to accomplish in over a decade. Bandit stumbled and his jaw
sagged.
He righted himself, glimpsed an open door, tugged Kata into a bathroom, and
caught her face between his hands. Talk to me. Tell me what that meant.
She licked her lips.
Every drop of blood in his body surged to his groin.
I don t know why I said that. A thin halo of green rimmed her dilated pupils. She
blinked so fast her lashes blurred.
Easy, easy. My bad. Didn t mean to pressure you. He rested his forehead on hers
and tried to suppress the tidal wave of disappointment crashing through him.
She placed her hands on top of his and looked right at him. I don t know who I am
anymore. I wish I could be sure of something. Anything.

Chapter Seventeen
Kata couldn t stop thinking about what Tania and Sidonie had shared with her
during the drive home. Everything Bandit had told her was the absolute truth. He would
go insane if she didn t claim him.
Though she hadn t quite digested all the information the two women gave her, Kata
now accepted one fact without any doubt. All the strange emotions that had so shocked
and stunned her since meeting Bandit were all symptoms of mate recognition.
And they would worsen to an unbearable point if she didn t claim him. Every
instinct urged her to do it. She hated uncertainty, always had. It had a lot to do with the
fact that she lived and worked with seniors who either died suddenly or suffered
through a long, lingering illness before succumbing to the grim reaper.
Life was too short for indecision. Yet she was stuck, unable to let go of her past life,
and not ready to embrace her new reality. She hated being in limbo.
What she needed was a couple of nights of solid eight-hour sleep. Maybe then her
gray cells would start to function again. She snuck a peek at Bandit, who d been on his
cell the whole trip, and decided what she desperately needed was him inside of her.
Bandit. He was her Bandit. Sidonie s words had stuck in her head. All that sexy
charm, desire, and attention focused on you and you alone. She couldn t stopper the grin
spreading her lips. Tonight, she intended to have Bandit and all of that sexy charm,
desire, and attention.
According to Tania and Sidonie, there was no sense fighting her sex addiction to
Bandit. In fact, the women had urged her to jump his bones. Kata slid him another
glance. Damned if she wasn t wet already just thinking about it.
It was near midnight before Bandit and Kata made it back home and had Natusya
settled for the night.
I can t believe you arranged all of this so quickly. Kata waved a hand around the
former loft room, now converted into a nursery/little girl s bedroom.
He linked his arms around her waist from behind and buried his nose in her short
hair. Pure selfishness on my part. I want to fall asleep with you in my arms and wake
up the same way. I know this isn t an ideal setup, but it ll work for now.
It s perfect. She rested her fingertips on his knuckles.
Needs decorating, but I figured that you and Natusya might have fun doing that.
Ready to turn in? Intercom s all set. Our wee sweetheart s fast asleep.
Her chest heaved when she blew out an extended sigh. It s been a long couple of
days.
Bandit urged her out of the room with a palm to the small of her back. Don t get
your dander up, but I also asked Tania to pick up a few extra clothes and supplies for
