Free Frozen Holidays 1& 2 Eudorus and Zelus by Crystal Dawn

noticed. “Hey what’s wrong
with you? Are you pranking me again?”
    Ros slipped up behind him and shot him in the
ass. Now he looked around for Hades and Doc. He found them tied up
in the next room. They weren’t knocked out, only pissed off. This
would be the end of Doc coming on missions. In her condition, the
risk was too great and it distracted the team. He felt bad for her,
but the welfare of a child always came first. He untied them and
went downstairs to wait for them. He figured they had something to
talk about alone.
    He needed to get downstairs to his mate
anyway. He found everything as he had left it. Jen sat in the chair
looking overwhelmed while Raker was on the floor still knocked out
and tied up. Someone came in the door. It was Hermes.
    “When did you get here?”
    “Cherish wanted to go shopping for Christmas
and Zeus needed someone experienced to help Hades and Doc.”
    Yeah, it sucked to be Hermes. He was clearly
agitated and Ros could understand why. He wanted her safe at
Olympus until the baby was born. She was far enough along that it
would be soon and an arduous journey could just push her into
labor. Some of the mates thought they could do anything even when
they were nearly ready to deliver. He hoped Jen wouldn’t be like
that. He didn’t know if he could handle it.
    “There are at least two more guards that work
at night. We also need a team in here to clean things out. We
checked and the building is rented but everything inside wall to
wall goes. We also have to track down several females that were
impregnated by god seed. It will take a couple days to clear all
this up. The helicopter needs to come back for the prisoners.”
    “Okay, what are you planning to do now?”
    “I’m planning on getting my girl out of here.
She needs to pack and get ready for a move. We also need to pick up
Danny at the school bus stop.”
    “Oh, no. Danny must think I’ve left him.”
    “Don’t worry. I’ve got a friend watching for
him and I told the bus driver a friend might pick him up.”
    “You forgot to mention this why?”
    Ros looked sheepish. “I didn’t want to worry
you.”
    “Next time don’t hide things from me.”
    “You’ve got a deal,” Ros said relieved that
he’d gotten off so easy. Hermes shook his head making Ros wonder if
he knew something he didn’t.
    A few days later, after Jen’s apartment was
empty and all the stuff she was taking picked up by movers, Ros,
Jen, and Danny stood in the clinic looking around. The bare floors
were shiny and the walls were empty. Every room from the lowest
level to the roof had been picked clean. There was no indication
that the clinic had ever been there.
    The six months left on the lease had ben
donated to a charity that would be using the building for
fundraisers. They were very grateful. Hades and Doc had left for
their other mission almost immediately and Ros hadn’t seen or heard
from them. Had anything gone wrong he was sure he would have been
told or even pulled in to help.
    They left without a backward glance. They
were heading for the airport where a plane was waiting for them.
Jen had agreed to go with him and he was thrilled. She even
understood that they would be together and he knew if he had just
one chance he wouldn’t mess it up.

Epilogue
    Ros rolled over in bed and felt the heat of
his mate. It was hard to avoid since the three weeks she had been
in Olympus had seen her belly swell to huge proportions. The
working theory was the baby’s growth had slowed because of
inadequate food and nutrients. The baby had caught up quickly and
would be born soon.
    Doc had tested the baby’s DNA and told them
that the baby was Ros’s. He wasn’t surprised since he knew Jen was
his mate and he had felt possessive toward her, Danny, and the baby
as soon as they had met. The baby would be born early in the New
Year and they were all excited.
    Ros smelled cinnamon rolls. Someone must have
brought them by as a Christmas treat. It was
