Mark's attention was pulled towards his youngest brother who silently entered the living room and without even looking in their direction, disappeared into the kitchen.

"This brat is finally home. He's lucky that he returned before eleven o'clock." Crist murmured as he closed the magazine that he had been reading.

"Good. Since he's safely back, now we all can retire for the night." Daniel spoke as he stood up from his seat, stretching his muscles while letting out a yawn.

"I'm just happy that there are only two Sullivan siblings. Who knows what would have happened if there were more than just these two." Crist commented as he let out a sigh of relief.

"You are right. It's still hard to believe that Rylan and Leo are mates. First our baby sister and now our baby brother too. Dom, you were the first one who noticed both Em and Leo's bonds with the Sullivans. How come we never grasp that?" Daniel questioned his brother. He was really curious about how their big brother always ended up recognizing the bonds first.

Domenic, who was relaxing on the couch with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes as he looked at the curious expression on his brothers' faces.

"I'm not sure too. Maybe it's the way they interact with each other or maybe the way they look at each other. I have no idea, to be honest. I just seem to know it."

He sounded just as confused as his answer was. The truth was, he had never thought about this before. It was indeed true that he seemed to be the first one in their family to recognize both Emily and Leo's bonds but he did not why and how did he recognize it.

"Alright. Let's not dwell on this matter anymore. Tomorrow is an important day. We have to be fully charged for the conference. Let's head to bed now." Daniel hurriedly reminded everyone about the upcoming meeting as he helped Domenic to collect all his files and laptop from the coffee table.

The men bid each other good night before they retired to bed for the night. The coming morning was bringing some surprises for them.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Kaiden asked as he looked at the girl in his arms with a questioning gaze.

Only now was he realizing exactly how crafty and mischievous his mate was.

"Of course, if I won't do it, I'm afraid I'll never get to see a sister-in-law in the future. My brothers are more than happy to spend the rest of their lives alone without a companion. It's time for me to help them find their destined ones." Emily answered his question as she kept looking through the photos that her secretary had sent her the previous night.

A small twitch appeared on Kaiden's lips as he heard her words. "Looking at these photos and the information files attached to them, it looks like you have been planning this for quite a while." He commented as he brushed away the loose strands of hair from her face.

Emily nodded her head slightly as she replied, "Yep! It's been a while. Now, I'm finally getting the chance to put forward this plan in action."

Kaiden remained silent as he watched her work. He could not stop the smile that bloomed on his lips as he thought about her brothers' reactions.

"Look. I've selected these five candidates for Nick. He's already thirty-three. He's my first priority along with Danny. I think if the others saw me setting these two ups, they will be scared enough to find their own girlfriends or boyfriends. That way, I won't have to work too hard. Right... I like this plan. What do you think?"

Emily turned her face to look at the man who smiled warmly at her before hurriedly nodding his head. "As long as you think it will work. You have my full support."

She smiled as she poked his left cheek lightly with the tip of her index finger, only to see him grasping her finger as he planted a soft kiss on it.

She could not help but feel the little butterflies fluttering their wings inside her belly as she felt the soft warm lips of her man touching her skin.

To pull herself out of the distracting thoughts, she pushed her phone against his chest as she spoke, "Come on, take a look at these pictures and tell me what you think about these ladies."

She was eager to hear his opinion but unfortunately, Kaiden only took her phone to place it on the small wooden table next to the couch.

"What are you doing?" She asked him with a confusing look decorating her face.

Kaiden turned his attention to the girl in his arms as he replied to her question, "I want to look only at you. I don't have time to look at the photos of any other women. So... let me look at you."

Emily failed to stop the smile that immediately appeared on her lips. Though she accepted that this man was too cheesy, it was also true that she loved his cheesiness.

"You really know how to use your pretty brain. I'm impressed by your answer. Though I would have appreciated your opinion." She told him as she brushed away the hair that kept sticking to her face.

Her hands stopped fixing her hair when she felt his warm breath fanning the side of her neck. His movements were so quick that she completely failed to notice when he moved his face closer to hers.

"I'm also good with my mouth... you know... my lips... my tongue or maybe even teeth... my hands too... and... "

Emily felt her breathing increasing in speed as she listened to the words that he was whispering next to her ear.

She felt one of his hands moving around her waist before it slipped under her shirt, coming in contact with the bare skin on her belly.

The small gasp that left her lips made a small smile appear on Kaiden's lips. He moved his face even closer to her neck. His nose was almost brushing against her skin.

This time he did not hold back as he let his lips came in contact with the skin of her neck. He placed a soft kiss there and heard her gasp again and when he heard no sound of protest coming from her, he again placed his lips against her skin to leave another kiss.

Emily didn't even realize that she had closed her eyes at some point. She was too occupied in dealing with the tingles of pleasure that were running all over her body to pay attention to anything else.

She once again felt his hand moving against the bare skin of her belly but he did not do anything more than just rubbing small circles over her tummy which actually made her suppress a smile.

"Angel..."

Kaiden groaned against her shoulder as he planted soft kisses over the smooth skin. His other arm had tightened its hold around her as he pulled her even closer to his body, erasing even the small space that was present between their bodies a few seconds ago.

Emily turned her body once again to properly face the man. Her knees came to rest on either side of his thighs as she sat on his lap while facing him.

His hand which was previously resting against her belly was now placed against the small of her back and it felt even warmer against her bare skin than it was feeling just a moment before.

She raised her hands to cup his face before she moved her face closer to his and placed a soft kiss on his forehead.

But for Kaiden's happiness, she did not stop there. Her next kiss landed on his left eye and then on the right one. She then placed a kiss on the tip of his nose before softly brushing/rubbing their noses against each other.

By the time her lips reached the corner of his mouth after planning kisses on both of his cheeks and jaw, he and his wolf were going insane to taste her luscious lips.

Before Emily could pull away after planting the last kiss on the corner of his lips, a hand on her nape stopped her from moving her head, and then her lips were sealed in a passionate deep kiss.

A soft sigh escaped her mouth as she let herself enjoy the beautiful moment. Her hands went to circle his shoulders while she let her body rest against his chest.

The kiss lasted for nearly a minute before Kaiden pulled away to look at the mesmerizing flushed face of his mate.

He took hold of one of her hands and brought it near to his mouth before placing a kiss on her palm.

His eyes were filled with affection and warmth as he looked at her with fondness.

"Angel... I Love You..."
