Desert Heat (Complete)
Desert Heat Chapter 35

“Wow, I didn’t realize that he was so possessive of her,”

“Not possessive, protective. Dorian fell in love with Allie the moment he laid eyes on her at the club. We actually drink and eat for free, but Dorian felt the need to pay for everything because he wanted to be sure that Allie got some extra money for her work, and he expected to take things slow with her, but her ex showing up expedited everything,”

“Sin told me bits and pieces of everything that happened, but I didn’t realize how serious a lot of it was,”

“Dorian loves Allie more than Allie loves him to be quite honest,”

“How can you tell?” I asked. That was interesting

“Well, Allie said it herself, she would rather sit on her own butt, but Dorian wants her in his lap, so she complies. Don’t get me wrong, Allie loves Dorian too, but Dorian loves her just a bit more,”

“Wow, Dorian is basically a lovesick puppy when it comes to Allie huh?”

“I think that applies to all males when it comes to their females,” I giggled at his comment.

“Dorian used to hate PDA too. Whenever he dated anyone in the packhouse, it stayed pretty secret. If the girl tried to hold his hand or anything like that, Dorian would either snap at them, pretend they weren’t dating, or just dump them altogether. That is also how I know Dorian loves Allie,”

After Brandon explained all that to me, I actually started to see the appeal. The Alpha and Luna loved each other and didn’t care who knew or saw. Knowing about Allie’s past, and seeing how she is, now, only reassured me that the mate bond was that powerful. It allowed someone as broken as Allie to find love, have a chance to be loved and be able to love. And because of Allie, she brought Brandon to me and other guys to the triplets. Allie was definitely someone special, and I was proud to call her my friend and my Luna.

“Hey, I have a fun idea!” Allie shouted

“What?” I asked

“Leah, have you heard of our game called Tap n’ Tickle?”

“Tap and what?”

“Tap n’ Tickle!” Sin shouted from the front seat.

“No, how do you play?” I asked.

“Like this!” Allie turned and smacked Sin’s arm.

“Hey! b***h!” Sin shouted and turned around slapping Allie’s leg, or that what it looked like.

“You tap or tickle your opponent, avoiding the head and face. The first person to 10 taps or tickles wins each round or if their opponent taps out. The first person to get the best two out of three rounds is the ultimate winner. We have been playing for years,” Allie said while poking Sin on her side.

“Stop! Or I will come back there and kick your a*s! Watch out Leah, Allie cheats!”

“I do not!”

“Who is winning?”

“Oh, I am,” Allie says blowing on her nails and being cocky. “We should play after dinner tonight. We can have fun, while the Simba and the others do the dishes,” Allie says poking Sin again

“Leah, Allie is ticklish on her feet!” Sin yelled

“Hey! Stop giving away my secrets! Skank!” spat Allie

“f**k you, b***h!” Sin responded

“You hoes are something else!” I shouted. The three of us rolled over laughing the car while the guys looked just as confused as ever.

The rest of the ride was super fun after that. We pulled up this amazing property in the middle of the desert that hidden away from the main road. It was humungous and made the Mojave packhouse look small. There was the main packhouse, and smaller townhouse looking homes. The territory was basically its own neighborhood. It was really something else.

Everyone got out of the car, and Allie went straight to the other car to make sure the triplets and the guys didn’t do anything naughty. She nodded once and everyone gathered their bags and went inside. The house was beautiful inside. Everything had burgundy and orange décor that symbolized the Desert Moon. The living area was super spacious and there were pack members are all over the place. Everywhere we turned, a pack member was greeting us. The triplets and their mates all went upstairs. Our guys went to put our stuff away and Sin followed after Mikey.

I was already being referred to as Beta. I wondered how everyone knew who I was but realized that Dorian had probably already told everyone via mind link. Everyone was super friendly and respectful. I saw this dirty blonde hair girl walk straight up to Allie with a baby in her arms and pass the baby over to her. Allie gladly took the baby and kissed her cheek. I loved babies, so I wanted to meet her,

“Who is this?” I asked Allie

“This is my little twin. Her name is Allison, and this is her mama, Casey,”

“Hi baby Allison, and it is a pleasure to meet you Casey,” I said shaking her hand.’

“Oh, Beta, the pleasure is all mine,” she responded with a strong country accent. This was first for me.

“Texas?” I asked. She looks at Allie with a frown and they both just started laughing.

“Sorry, Leah. When Casey and I first met, she told me that everyone thinks she is from Texas, but she is actually from Tennessee. I was the only person that has ever guessed correctly,” Allie said while bouncing Allison in arms.

“You are so good with her?” I said to Allie

“She and I built our relationship,” she said kissing her chubby cheeks again. I played with her hand and she started to smile.

“Beta, she likes you too,” Casey said. I couldn’t wait to have my own pups with Brandon. Allie then handed the baby back to Casey and they left.

“Why don’t we get changed and get ready for dinner. We can play a round of our game, and then head over the pack hospital,” she said to me. I nodded my head. She took my hand and led me upstairs to the second floor and straight to Brandon’s room.

“Do I have to knock?” I asked

“What? Leah, it’s your room too, just go in,” she said and waved.

“Wait, where is your room?”

“Our room and personal offices are on the third floor. Basically, Alphas and Lunas are on the very top, Betas and Gammas are on the second floor, and selected Omegas are on the first floor. Most of the pack members live in the townhouses within the territory and come to the main house to hang out and have fun,”

“Okay, got it,” She waved and ran up the stairs. I opened the door to Brandon’s room and was shocked at big it was. He had a king-size bed, his own bathroom, and a fairly large closet.

“Babe, is that you?” Brandon called from the bathroom.

“Yeah,” he poked his head and came out. He was shirtless.

“I put most of your stuff away in the closet and drawers. I also put your toiletries in the bathroom and shower stuff in the shower,” he said kissing my cheek.

“Wow, I guess I’m all moved in huh?” I said.

“Yes, you are,” he said grabbing my waist and giving me a k**s.

“Allie said we would have dinner, play the game and then go to the pack hospital,”

“Sounds like a plan,”

“I’m going to take a shower,” I said and headed for the bathroom. When I opened the door, there was a giant garden jacuzzi tub, and the shower was actually an open wall shower. No doors or curtains were needed. There were four showerheads that lined the top, front, and back and other smaller showerheads within the walls. This was the fanciest shower I had ever seen.

“You like?” he asked me

“This has to be the most luxurious shower I have ever seen,”

“You think this is fancy, you should see Dorian and Allie’s bathroom,”

“Wait, where do you turn on the water?” I asked noticing there were no nozzles

“Oh, it’s a smart shower, see this?” he showed me a touchpad on the other side of the wall. “You hit the button for the corresponding shower head to turn it on, set the temperature of the water, and walk right in. When you’re done, you hit the off button and it shuts off,” he said while pushing a few keys. “Once you figure out the temperature of the water you like, let me know and I can have it set to that automatically,” he said and kissed my cheek.

“Awesome! Now out! This shower and I need to get to know each other,” I pushed him out of the bathroom and locked the door. This was going to be so much fun.
