 I ll drop them off and be right back, Drake said.
A woof caught his attention before Sandy came into the room.
 I was wondering where you were hiding, HC said. His eyes widened as he saw the
puppy come running behind her then a kitten.  Drake, when did you get a puppy and cat?
 I didn t. They re for you. The puppy is an Irish Setter and the kitten is a Maine Coon. I
was thinking you can call them Rhino and Pine. Drake laughed as he backed towards the
door.
HC narrowed his eyes.  You did not buy me a puppy and a kitten.
 Quid pro quo, Drake said innocently.
 Uh-huh. How does this fit?
 This fits for whatever you bought me. Drake moved steadily away.
 Who said I bought you anything? HC asked, although he had.
 I know you well enough to know you have. Drake snorted.  You won t turn them
away from a loving home. They even like you.
HC looked down at the puppy that was pulling on his shoe string and the kitten
kneading his leg. He lifted his head and glared at Drake.  Yeah, they like me alright. Why an
Irish Setter and a Maine Coon?

 The setter is active like you are. The Maine Coon is a gentle giant. They re both male.
Drake turned and headed down the steps.  Get to know them.
 I m not accepting the puppy or kitten, HC called.
 Quid pro quo, Drake returned, laughing again.
HC growled. He knew Drake had a point, but damned if he would let him bamboozle
him. Drake got in his vehicle and drove away. HC looked at the animals and, seeing them
headed for the door, he scooped them up. He looked at the setter then the coon. They woofed
and meowed. Frowning, HC headed out of the door and closed it when Sandy joined him.
He went rapidly down the path to the main house then to the office entrance and quickly
inside, heading to Blayne s office. He yelled,  Stop that. I need your keys.
Blayne and Morgan jumped and jerked apart. Morgan glared and Blayne lifted his
middle finger at HC. He looked at what HC held and eyes widened.
 What 
 Keys. He looked around and seeing them hanging on the wall by the door he said,
 Never mind. He shifted his hold on the puppy, snagged the keys and went back out of the
door.
 Morgan, why does HC have a puppy and kitten? Blayne asked behind him.
 No clue. Morgan almost managed to sound innocent.
 Liar. What did you do?
 I didn t do anything, Cactus.
Blayne snorted then Morgan laughed.
 Drake asked, so I gave him the name of where I got Prima and Donna.
 Pri and Don. You should know their names by now, Blayne said.
HC went down the hall, absently hearing them bicker. He went outside and to Blayne s
SUV, pressing the clicker to disarm it then he opened it. He placed the puppy and kitten on
the floor of passenger seat and Sandy jumped up onto the seat. HC got in then started the
car. In moments, he was driving down the road towards his destination. Shortly, he parked
and after grabbing the animals, he got out. Sandy matched his pace as he went up the steps.
He kicked the door, since his hands were full. The sound of footsteps came and the door
opened. Staring at the man there, HC glared then held out the puppy and kitten.

 He bought me these. Told me to call them Rhino and Pine. I will absolutely not call
them that and if any of you do I will knock your teeth in. HC took a breath then shoved the
animals at the man.  He is courting me. What the hell do I do with that?
Windsor took the animals, stared at HC then turned.  Paxton, it s for you.
 I m not here for Dad. HC knew Windsor got upset when he called Paxton Dad. He
frowned when he thought of that then glared at Windsor.  I m here to speak with my papa.
He grinned at Windsor.  And that s you, buddy.
 Paxton! Windsor yelled.  Your son just called me  papa . You d better come here
now.
Paxton came from the living room and he was chuckling.  HC, stop messing with
Windsor.
 I m not messing with Papa. He is with you now so he needs a name to be called when
we re upset and serious. He can t be what Daddy was, so Papa. HC moved closer to
Windsor.  So, Papa, what do I do about Drake courting me?
 Court him back, Windsor said and pushed the kitten and puppy back at him. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
