  “Enough of that,” Bryer said as both men turned her and aimed her toward the back of the house in the direction of the kitchen.

  Once through the kitchen doors, Pomona sagged against Ignazio’s side while Bryer pulled up a kitchen stool for her to sit on.

  “Holy shit, I wasn’t expecting that!” she said. “Is it always that big a deal?”

  “Never,” Ignazio said. “Usually the outcome gets leaked in advance—it’s never been a secret before.”

  Nessa was bustling around them, giving orders to waiters carrying trays of finger food, but stopped long enough to give Pomona a big hug.

  “Get some food into you three now!” she ordered, setting a plate piled with snacks on the counter beside them. The guys both pulled up stools as well.

  Pomona sighed as she ate, not realizing until that moment how utterly famished she was. After a few bites, she realized she was munching on her own recipes.

  “Nessa, I thought you’d change something, at least.”

  “Why mess with perfection? You’ve done amazing things—this is the best spread I’ve ever had the pleasure of cooking for the party. I’m just happy I got to be involved. Even happier I got to help with this.” She grinned and waved her hand between the three of them.

  The kitchen door swung open then, and they all turned. A familiar, platinum-haired woman stood looking at them with a smug smile on her face. Bry and Ig both looked distinctly worried.

  “Gerri!” Pomona exclaimed, hopping up to greet the woman with a hug. She gave the men a perplexed look, and they responded by focusing on the food again. Dismissing their odd behavior, she turned back to Gerri and smiled. “I had no idea you would be here. Don’t you live on Earth full-time?”

  “Oh, darling, some events on Nova Aurora are not to be missed, and this was one of them. Besides, I believe we have some unfinished business. If I’m not mistaken, it appears you’ll be staying?”

  Pomona laughed. “How’d you guess? Was it these two possessive men, or the pretty little marks they put on me?”

  Gerri smiled. “A little of both, not to mention the way you are positively glowing. Being mated to dragon shifters suits you. But as we agreed, I believe a trade is in order.” She dipped her hand into the small clutch she carried and retrieved a folded piece of paper.

  Pomona reached for it, frowning. What could the woman be giving her? When Gerri raised an eyebrow and held the paper out of reach, Pomona remembered.

  “Oh! Yes!” She clapped her hands and grinned. “Just one moment,” she said, holding up a finger. She rushed to the pantry and retrieved her personal binder of recipes. When she got back to the others, she flipped to a blank page and hurriedly jotted down a list of ingredients and instructions from memory.

  Returning to Gerri, she held out the recipe for her signature dessert, and accepted the other recipe in return. Giddy with excitement, she tucked the new recipe into her binder and closed the book.

  When she returned her attention to Gerri to thank her, the older woman had a look of utter bliss on her face and a spoon in one hand.

  “Oh, I missed this so much,” Gerri said, dipping her spoon into a glass filled with Pomona’s chocolate mousse. “The recipe was definitely worth the trouble.”

  A pair of warm palms rested on her shoulders, and she glanced back to see both Bryer and Ignazio looking at her with the hungriest gazes for a pair of males who had only just eaten. They each held a similar glass full of the same decadent concoction.

  “The chef is worth it even more,” they said as they steered Pomona toward the doors.

  About Ophelia Bell

  Ophelia Bell is the author of the super steamy Sleeping Dragons series. Ophelia loves a good bad-boy and especially strong women in her stories—women who aren’t apologetic about enjoying sex and bad boys who don’t mind being with a woman who’s in charge, at least on the surface, because pretty much anything goes in the bedroom. Ophelia grew up on a rural farm in North Carolina and now lives in sunny Southern California with her very supportive husband and sixty-nine attention-whoring cats. (Just kidding, there are only six, and one of them is orange.)
