Borrowed Ember (26 page)

"Baby, I'm not growling at you. I just need you to try to remember. Do they mean you harm?"
Decebel tried to soften his voice.

"I don't think so. It hurts, Dec. I can't think. I just want to sleep for a while."
Jen's voice began to fade.

"Jennifer, stay with me a minute longer."

Jen loved the sound of his voice, the deep timbre of it. She nearly groaned when she felt his lips on hers and his fingers caressed her face.

"How are you doing that?"
she asked him, her voice breathless through their bond.

"It's the bond. I just imagine touching you and somehow you feel it."

"Oh, the possibilities."
Jen grinned inside.

Decebel chuckled.

"Hmm, that's the sound I like to hear."
Jen imagined running her fingers through Decebel's soft, dark hair.

She heard him growl in her mind.
"I have to find you, love. Try and think. How did they get you?"

"Have you wondered what our babies would have looked like?"
Jen asked absently as she frowned inwardly, trying to picture the future she might have had with her wolf.

"Baby, this isn't really the time to discuss our babies. Let's focus on who is carrying you so that I can get you back. Then we can make babies."

Jen groaned and felt the arms around her tighten, which brought a gasp from her. Decebel must have sensed her pain because she felt his worry.

"I'm okay. Just hurts."
Jen actualy felt a smile spread across her face.
"So you want to make babies with me?"

This time when Decebel laughed she swore she could feel his hands run down her sides to her hips.

"Only you would want to discuss making babies at a time like this."

"Well, you have to admit that it's a better topic than my nearly being killed and now being kidnapped. Seriously, Dec, I'd much rather think about us
making babies."

Jen felt another jolt of pain shoot through her – it took her breath away. She felt her consciousness begin to fade.

"I love you, Decebel. Even if we never make babies, I love you."
The last thing she heard before the world disappeared was Decebel's deep, determined voice.

"I love you, baby. I'm coming for you."
