On Dawn's assurance that she would start attending the office from next day onwards, Lily Wyatt was actually looking forward to it. She was eager that Dawn started working as soon as possible, and brings the Company out of the doldrums. The fact that she was married to Daryn Silver would work in her favor. The sooner she brought the business back on track, the sooner she would be able to take it back from her. Her plans were all ready. All she had to do was wait for a year or so or maybe less… There was a smile on her face when she left the Wyatt Golf Course and she was extra cordial to Daryn.
Daryn pulled Dawn in his lap in the car after pressing the button for the shield to rise between them and the driver, while on their journey back to the Silver Mansion. He was very tense with what happened at the course. Not only did Dawn encounter the werewolf, she also faced the worst possible thing—Bree wanted to poison her.
Dawn rubbed his arms and assured him, "I am fine dear husband. Because of your timely intervention, I could turn the table on her."
Daryn pressed his face in her chest. "Why are these people always after you? I feel like killing them and I would have if they were members of my clan!" He said with disgust.
She kissed his forehead. "Daryn, with you around me, nothing can happen. But how could you make out that there was poison?"
He pressed his lips and then turned to look outside the window. "I could smell it and I don't know how but I could actually see and hear the sizzle of poison beneath the layer of pasta. It looked like red liquid, which burnt microholes in the outer layer of pasta. And when I saw that, I was furious as hell. After you mollified me mentally, I suppressed my anger. Otherwise I was going to kill Bree for sure!"
She stroked his arms. "It seems your powers as a sorcerer are awakening." He had to be trained and there was no news from Ixoviya.
Daryn ignored her sentence and said, "Why did you leave Bree? You should have thrown her out for me to murder her! Trust me Dawn, I am going to kill her and make sure that she sees what death is slowly and painfully. The bitch tried to kill my babies and wife. I am sorry but there is no place for her on this earth. So if you plan on keeping her longer, let me know. I will entice her out of the place and then kill her!" He sounded like a lava rock, which was burning red hot on the inside, simmering slowly. Dawn was afraid that the anger would explode soon.
She reasoned. "Bree isn't working alone. It was very clear. I mean the kind of poison she gave me and I made her eat that very food. Had it been any other human, that person would have been rushed to the hospital immediately. So I am guessing that she was soon taken care of and someone must have administered her an antidote. The whole thing was done quickly, in less than an hour. It means that either she was over-prepared, which I highly doubt considering her bird-brains, orrrr," Dawn drawled, "she has an accomplice."
Daryn jerked his head up after listening to his wife's theory. "Don't tell me that there are more people to harm you out there! By Skadi! I am going to pelt their skin with my dagger!"
"Relax Daryn," he said while patting his biceps, the muscles of which were rippling under his skin with tension coiled in them. "I left Bree only to find who is supporting her. And tomorrow I am going to the Wyatt's office. It would be easy for me to find out and act."
Daryn sighed. "Yet another tension added to my already existing ones. I will be sending extra security with you. Also is it possible that you work from my office?"
Dawn chuckled. "Not unless the Wyatt office moves next to The Silver House!"
He buried the dejection on his face in her chest again. Suddenly a bright idea came to his mind. He smiled and in excitement bit her nipple over the dress.
"Ouch!" she slapped his chest.
But Daryn' assault had only pearled her nipple. "See how they react to my touch," he said and before she could protest, his hand was already cupping it. He opened her bra from the back saying, "Baby, you need to relax. Stop wearing bras because now your breasts are becoming heavier. You should let them grow naturally." Saying that he ripped her dress with his claw in the front and grabbed her nipple with his mouth ignoring all her protests. "Gods! These are so beautiful!" he said in reverence. With his other hand, he held hers and brought it to his erection. "See what you have done to me?"
Dawn opened the zip of his pants and his huge shaft sprung free.
He couldn't last even five minutes for the first time, and then throughout the journey he must have come several times. When they reached home, he zipped up, picked his mate in his arms and carried her upstairs to the bed. They took bath and went off to sleep in each other's arms. None of them had the energy to even open their eyelids.
Next day Dawn woke up early to get ready. She walked to the terrace to see the garden she had so painstakingly developed over the past few weeks. Her twins were growing at a satisfactory rate and her appetite was also growing. She wished that Brenda were there with her. Daryn had informed her that she would be coming with news about Ixoviya soon and she eagerly awaited her arrival.
Daryn had already told her that she would be going to the office with him on the first day. So the couple got ready and went for breakfast.
It was 8AM and Cole was sitting at the table with a grumpy look. For a week, he had not talked to Dawn over not letting him go to the rugby camp. And right now he was flipping pages of a sports magazine.
Dawn shook her head at the way he had locked horns with her. "Are you sure you want to go?" she asked him to break the ice.
Cole didn't reply and continued to flip the pages all the more aggressively.
Daryn watched the siblings with a patronizing look. He enjoyed their battles and small banters a lot. It made him feel home even though he missed his father's presence a lot. There hadn't been much information about his whereabouts. Sedora was keeping him somewhere very safe and very hidden.
Seeing his temperament, Dawn sighed. She buttered her toast and said, "Look if you want to go, then you can."
As if hit by a huge snowball, Cole jerked his head up. He raised his eyebrow to understand what Dawn just spoke. He licked his lips and stubbornly waited for her to repeat, but she didn't. Every passing minute that she was quiet, increased his anxiety. He was too stubborn to ask her to say again. Dawn avoided his stare and crunched the toast in her mouth as if it was the most delicious thing she was eating.
