“Bring me that wolf,” I ordered Brian.

“No!” She interrupted him grabbing his arm. “The alpha will interrogate the intruder when he’s been treated and has a clear mind,”

“Annette,” I sighed rubbing my thumbs on her hips.

“You’re bleeding,” she looked up at me backing away. Her cheek was covered in red and I stepped forward cupping her face covering it. “I want him punished,”

“He will be,” she stated, jaded ice reaching her eyes. The surety in her statement she made so fluidly would scare any man but it filled me with pride.

“Brian guard the stairwell I’m going to tend the the alphas wound. Have the guest room prepared for Amaria and her things moved here,” she directed her guard.

“Also station extra guards around the forest this evening, find out how they got in,” She finished lacing her finger through mine and leading me up stairs.

Her hands were soft. What could have happened if one of those wolves had gotten to her. I grabbed her finger and k*ssed the back of her hand. I wanted her safe, it was my responsibility to protect her.

“Are you alright?” I asked her as she closed our bedroom door.

She kept her face away from me her hands resting on the door.

“I saw the bear charge you….” She whispered. A small sob came out of her.

Small sounds never phased me before but that one cry and I was a broken man.

“I’m alright,” I came up behind her taking her hands off the door and holding them, keeping my arms wrapped around her. Her small back solidly against my chest as I k*ssed the top of her head.

“I couldn’t focus on anything so I went to the moon pool just to make sure you were okay 1-” she wavered in her words and gathered a breath. “I just wanted to know you were safe,”

She briskly left my arms and went to the bathroom.

“I’m not upset Annette, those enemy wolves shouldn’t have been in the forest at all,” I placed my hand on her back. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“You need to take off your shirt,” she sniffled.

“Excuse me?” I chuckled. I had missed her too but this is not what I thought we were going to do.

“I need to see to your wounds,” She looked at me pleadingly.

“Of course,” I grabbed the hem of my shirt and tried to pull it over my head but the tears of flesh around my shoulder

reared their head impenetest.

Sweet k*sses we normally shared were now harder with want behind them from distance and danger. My hand was in her hair, her chest tightly against mine, and her legs wrapped around me.

“Missing you is one of the challenges I don’t think I’ll ever overcome,” I told her as we calmed down and she began resting on me again.

“Nothing seemed as important as if you alright,” she agreed with me.

She grabbed the soap and loofah and started to wash herself another form of torture I had to endure but it only worsened when she tried to clean me.

“Annette trust me I don’t think I could take it if you did that, I grabbed the sponge from her.

I did help her clean her hair, it seemed as though she had eighty steps to clean up in the bath. Hair, face, b*dy, she told me she shaves too but she didn’t have to this time.

The regime she kept up seemed too extensive.

“Your hair seems to be the only other thing besides your skin that needs attention,” I smirked at her insistence that she was not as bad as other women who spend hours grooming themselves.

“Seems pointless you’re effortlessly beautiful, the classic beauty in paintings and fairytales,” I explained my confusion.

“For such a scary looking man you’re very warm–hearted,” she brushed her finger along my face.

“Only to those close to me,” I met her earnest gaze loving her with my eyes.

We dried off and got into our bed, she fell asleep against me quickly and I watched her thanking the goddess she was

I gingerly got out of bed k*ssing her bare shoulder. I dressed myself and headed out of our room and down the stairs,

“Matt, wake the wolf,” I ordered.
