Bear Necessities (Bad Boy Alphas): A Post-Apocalyptic Bear Shifter Romance
Page 35
“I love you, too, shortcake,” he murmured, nuzzling her neck. Goddamn, even when she was a bloody mess, he wanted her. He couldn’t wait to get her away from everyone and everything and have her completely to himself. “Nothing says love like ripping a man’s throat out for me.”
“I told you I was stronger than I looked.” She giggled when he threw his head back and laughed.
Then he kissed her like he was never going to stop.
Epilogue—Ivy
“So how does this work?” Ivy plucked strawberries from the vine, looking back at Caleb with a coy little smile. “Do I have one? Or a litter? Are they babies or cubs?”
Caleb laughed, yanking his pants up and buttoning them. “I forgot you didn’t grow up shifter.”
“Well, our baby—or babies—will grow up shifter.” She bit into a strawberry—so ripe and juicy. This year’s crop was even sweeter than the last. And she loved walking all the way out here with Caleb to pick them.
In the distance, she heard the sounds of hammers and smiled. Jonah had made quick work of that old shack, turning it into a real home.
Their home had been a mess. Her father’s photographs had been smashed, but not ruined, thank God. The letter had surprised her—found hidden behind the frame of the photograph of the bear.
It had shattered when it fell to the floor—what a mess they’d had to clean, but at least the place hadn’t burned down like in her dream. That’s when she’d discovered she was adopted. Found on his doorstep, her father confessed in his letter.
She was sure, somewhere out there, were shifter parents and an explanation.
“Yes, they will.” Caleb grabbed her from behind, rubbing stubble over her cheeks, reddening them.
“Are you going to grow your beard out now?” she complained, reaching back to caress his beautiful face.
“If you want. You know I’ll do anything for you.” Caleb grabbed her ass as he turned her around to kiss her, then smacked it, making her yelp. “Now go make me some shortcake, shortcake.”
She still couldn’t believe, sometimes, how lucky she was, Ivy thought as she took her mate’s hand and they started walking back toward home.
She was the luckiest damned shifter girl left on the planet.
