Demon's Embrace Page 8


  “Will do,” she whispered back. “But there may be one little crimp in your plans.”

  Alex raised an eyebrow and waited for her to elaborate.

  “Remember how I know stuff I probably shouldn’t know but know anyway?” He nodded. “I know that humans and fire demons can’t normally interbreed, but for some reason, you and I can.”

  “We can what?” Alex asked, looking adorable in his surprise.

  “We can have babies together, Alex. I don’t really understand how it’s possible. I just know it is.”

  “We can be a real family?” Alex asked excitedly.

  Ronan grinned, slapped his friend on the back, and kissed Kali softly. “I’ll meet you in bed.”

  Kali nodded, grateful for Ronan’s understanding. Alex had seemed so self-assured, so confident in his place in their relationship, that Kali hadn’t really given any thought to the emotions he’d kept hidden. Judging by his reaction to her announcement, he’d seen himself as some sort of second-string husband and not an equal partner.

  “Alex,” she said as he sat on the sofa and pulled her onto his lap.

  “Yes, beautiful?”

  “You know that I’ll always love you and Ronan equally, don’t you?”

  “You know, I would have answered yes to that question a few hours ago, but it would seem that a part of me truly didn’t believe it.”

  “But you believe it now?”

  “Absolutely. Kali, I’ve felt a connection to you since the moment we met. It doesn’t matter if they’re human babies or demon babies. I promise to love them all and love their mother always.”

  “I love you, Alex.”

  “I love you, too, beautiful. Let’s go get some sleep.”

  Kali glanced over to see Ronan’s smile widen before he winked and stepped from the room.

  Several hours later, wedged tightly between the men who loved her, Kali fell asleep with a smile on her lips and joy in her heart. This was where she belonged. It didn’t matter where they lived. It only mattered that they were together.
