He glared down at his twin. Why are you here?
Growling, she struggled out of his arms. To check on you and to make sure that idiot, she pointed at Mitch, didnt steal all your good china. But I had no idea you were entertaining canines. Or getting them pregnant!
Pregnant? Brendon knew he was potent, but to go through latexwow.
What should really worry him? That the idea of Ronnie carrying his baby didnt scare him at all. Hed bet shed look beautiful pregnant.
Then it hit Brendon like a brick to the head where his mind had happily wandered.
Look at that. Your heart can just stop in your chest but you keep on breathing.
To keep himself from asking if Ronnie wanted to go maternity clothes shopping, he looked at her and softly asked, Pregnant?
Ronnie shrugged. Nah. I was just fuckin with her. As soon as she tried to kill me she would have smelled I wasnt pregnant.
Okay. He really liked this female. Hed always loved a woman with a healthy sense of humor. But one who refused to be intimidated by his sister made him all horny and anxious to get her back into bed.
Trying not to laugh in the face of his sisters blinding anger, he said, Ronnie, this is my twin sister, Marissa. Rissa, this is Ronnie. She and her Pack saved me the other night. He yanked Marissa back. So be nice, he snarled in her ear.
She didnt apologize and Brendon didnt expect her to, but she stopped talking and looked away.
Ronnie, could you give us a minute?
Yeah. Sure. Thankfully, she didnt seem angry hed asked her to leave.
She pushed through the door and Rissa turned on him. Couldnt you at least fuck one of the small ones? Shes built like a linebacker.
Not surprisingly that swinging door slammed back open, denting Brendons wall as Ronnie walked in yelling, You tree-climbing heifer!
You car-chasing slut!
Mitch came around the counter and grabbed hold of Marissa while Brendon put his arms around Ronnie and pulled her back. Unfortunately, the two females were in full rage, and even Brendons roar didnt get them to shut up.
But Mitchs quiet You know, lions really dont climb trees brought the yelling to an abrupt end, and the three of them looked at him.
He shrugged. I meanwe can climb trees. Especially ones with low branches. But then we cant get down again. Leopards, however, are quite spry. So they take their prey up into trees. So other predators like us or hyenas cant steal their meal.
After a long moment of silence, Ronnie shook her head and pulled out of Brendons arms. Without a word, she walked out of the kitchen. Hewaited until he heard his bedroom door close, then he looked at Marissa.
I think you better get used to something.
What?
Her. He stepped up to his sister. Cause if I get my way, shell be around. A lot.
Are you giving to the ASPCA, too? I didnt know youd become so altruistic.
Knowing he was way close to popping his own sister in the mouth, Brendon picked her up and dumped her in front of Mitch.
What the hell am I supposed to do with her?
Take her to your room. The two of you can have lunch and discuss other fascinating cat trivia.
Marissa stepped away from Mitch. Brendon
Out! He took a deep breath. Out of my sight. Until Im ready to see you again. Of course that may not be until after New Years.
Fine! Do whatever you want. And when you get fleas, dont come complaining to me.
Mitch shoved Marissa out the door. He stopped and looked at Brendon. For a second, Brendon thought he had something really deep to say. But the kid only shook his head and said, Ill see ya later, bruh.
His family left and he walked into his bedroom to find Ronnie back in her own clothes.
Ronnie
Forget it. She turned and glared at him. Im leaving you. And I never want to see you again.
He swallowed the lump of panic in his throat. If youll give me a
She cut him off. Shaw
Yeah?
Im just kiddin. She burst out laughing. You should see your face!
His eyes narrowed. You think thats funny?
I think its hilarious.
Youre mean.
Not as mean as that sister of yours. Ive met snakes nicer. But compared to my momma shes a lightweight. And I dont scare easy.
Thats good. Now get over here.
You want me all the way over there? Thats like a really long walk.
Dont make me come get you, Ronnie Lee.
Oooh. And what if I do make you come get me? Whatcha gonna do, Yankee? He watched her nipples harden under her worn T-shirt. Whatcha gonna do to poor little ol me?
Slowly, Brendon moved around the bed. I gave you an order you didnt follow. He made a tsk-tsk sound. That requires punishment, Ronnie Lee.
Punishment? He watched her fight a smile as she took steps away from him. Youd punish me?
