Oh yeah- the whole Thomas dating Gray’s mate’s sister thing? Totally worked out for him. Turns out that Bianca is his fated mate, and Gray is actually thrilled that the two of them are together. Lucky S.O.B.

“Well fill me in,” Thomas laughs, nudging me again.

I grin. “I met her in Clearwater. Total smokeshow. We agreed to this completely anonymous hookup where we didn’t even exchange names, butfuck, bro, she wasincredible.”

“Is she part of your pack?” Thomas asks Ryder, who gives a little shake of his head.

“That’s the thing!” I sigh. “Ryder says he doesn’t know who she is, she said she wasn’t from there, and I have no idea how to find her, but I’ve gotta see this girl again.”

Gray clears his throat, speaking up. “What was so special about her?” A small smile plays at his lips. Dude’s a hopeless romantic, deep down.

“Fucking everything,” I groan. “Insane body, perfect tits, mouth like a hoover, pussy like…”

“Whoa whoa whoa,” Brody interrupts, holding up his hands. “We get it, dude. She was good in bed.”

“Unreal,” I correct. “Best I ever had.”

“Seriously?” Thomas asks, arching a brow. “Ever?”

I nod. “Hands down.”

Thomas grins, leaning back in his chair. “Gotta love a girl who’s not shy about giving a blowy,” he laughs, offering me a fist-bump. “Especially if it’s a good one.”

I touch my fist to his, laughing.

“Alright, I think we’re all done here,” Gray sighs, pushing back his chair and rising to stand. “You two can keep discussing Jace’s mystery girl, but the rest of us have pack business to get back to.”

Thomas and I both snicker as the other guys get up and exit the conference room. Out of the five of us, Thomas and I are probably the most alike. Both of us enjoy casual hookups, and neither of us have much of a filter when it comes to talking about them. We also tend to lead with humor, which the more serious guys like Brody and Ryder find irritating.

“I still feel like she’s gotta be from Ryder’s pack,” I mumble, watching as Gray, Ryder, and Brody head out the door and disappear down the hall.

“You think Ryder’s holding out on you?” Thomas asks. “After the way you described her, maybe he wants to keep her for himself.” He waggles his eyebrows.

“I wouldn’t put it past him,” I laugh.

Thomas shakes his head, chuckling. “Hey, if I wasn’t already mated to the perfect woman, I’d try to snake her from you, too.”

I deliver a playful jab to his bicep, tilting my chair forward to sit on four legs again and scooting it back.

Thomas reaches out to touch my arm. “Hey, before you go…”

I’ve got my palms on the arms of the chair, ready to push up to stand, but I pause, looking over at my buddy. “What’s up?”

He blows out a breath, fiddling with the hem of his t-shirt. “So my sister’s coming up to join the IT unit, and she wants to have a dual role on the squad, so she’s gonna be training with the reserve squad recruits to get up to speed.”

I arch a brow. “No shit?”

I knew Thomas had a sister, but not anything about her. Certainly not that she’s an IT brainiac. Until recently, Thomas has pretty much avoided going home, so I’ve never had the chance to meet his little sis.

“So what, you want me to take it easy on her?” I smirk.

“No, absolutely not,” Thomas chuckles. “She’s tough, I have no doubt that she’ll hold her own when it comes to training. Just… since you’re going to be overseeing training, I was hoping you’d keep an eye on her for me, look out for her. You’ve got sisters, would you want them up here with all of these horn-dog squad guys?”

I wrinkle my nose in disgust. “Absolutely not. I get it, bro, I’ve got your back. I’ll look out for her.”

He gives me a little nod. “Great, thanks man.” He starts to stand up out of his chair and I follow suit.

“The same goes for you, too,” he adds, shooting me a warning look once we’re both on our feet. “Quincy just got out of a relationship, she’s fragile right now. When I say I don’t want anyone sniffing around her, I meananyone.”

I let out a laugh, pushing my chair in and leaning toward Thomas. “Oh c’mon, dude, I wouldn’t try to nail your sister. It’s bro code. You know me better than that.”

The corners of Thomas’s mouth tip up into a grin. “Yeah, I know. I just have to say it.”

He claps me on the shoulder, steering me toward the door of the conference room.

“So tell me more about this mystery girl…”
