He took a step back, staring at her as she looked up at him. Daniel lowered her to her feet, and she would have collapsed in a heap if he hadn’t caught her.
“You can feel pain? What hurts?” He held her close to him and looked over her body, taking plenty of care as he touched her.
“My neck, it stings where you bit me, and my pussy is a little tender. Could it be the mating or something else?” she asked. Was the feeling temporary?
She didn’t care if it was temporary or not. For the first time in over eleven years she felt something.
“The mating has started, and you’re able to feel. If we complete the mating it could help with your ability to feel pain, not that you want to feel too much pain.” Daniel lifted her up in his arms and carried her upstairs toward their bedroom.
“I thought we were going to fuck our way up to our room,” she said, smiling.
“We’ll fuck soon. I want to take care of you first. This is my right as your mate.”
She wrapped her arms around his neck, holding onto him. “You know, you don’t need to protect me from everything. I’m not that fragile.”
He placed her on the bed and left her to go through to the bathroom. She felt his cum leaking out of and stood up before she made a mess of the bed. Daniel appeared several seconds later with steam coming out of the bathroom.
“Our bath awaits.”
Again, he carried her through to the bathroom and eased her into the warm soapy water. He climbed in beside her, wrapping his arms around her body. She ended up in his lap with his flaccid cock resting between the cheeks of her ass.
“I think you’re doing this on purpose,” she said, leaning against him. His rock hard body met her back, surrounding her.
His arms, twice the size of hers, wrapped around her body securing her to him. “I love you, baby,” he said.
She gasped, glancing toward him. “What?”
“You heard me. I’m in love with you and have been for a long time. I not only want you as my mate, Dawn, I want you as my wife.” He cupped her cheek, turning her to look at him. “Tell me you’ll marry me.”
His proposal took her by surprise.
“You still want to marry me even knowing what you know about me?”
“Yes, baby. I want to marry you. Not only do I want to marry you but I also want you to have my children and grow old with me.” He dropped a kiss to her nose. His thumb stroked her cheek.
“I love you, too.” She smiled up at him. “I want to be your woman in every sense of the word.” Dawn reached up to cup his cheek. “Kiss me.”
He leaned down, and she moved up to meet him half way. When their lips locked, electricity ran up and down her body. She was drawn to him, and her wolf wanted out to have a taste.
She spun in his arms deepening the kiss. His hands held onto her back, and she opened her eyes to see their reflections in the mirror. They were beautiful, or at least she thought they were beautiful together. Her darker skin stood out against his pale skin. He was larger than she was, but together, the sight took her breath away.
Daniel pulled away.
“No, we’re not going to fuck in the tub. I’m going to wash your body and then we’ll fuck.”
He wouldn’t budge even as she cupped his rock hard cock. Daniel slapped her hands away, warning her of a severe punishment if she didn’t listen to him. She enjoyed his attention and the way he bathed her.
The love he showed touched her deeply, and she never wanted it to end.
When he finished, he pulled out the plug and made her stand up.
He held a towel for her to step into.
“I love you, Sir.”
“You’re not getting my cock until I’m good and ready.”
They walked into the bedroom together. Daniel dried his body, and the sight of his muscles rippling was enough to make her mouth water.
He dried her body when he was finished with his own.
“What’s going on in that head of yours?” he asked, touching her body as he continued to use the towel.
“Nothing. I’m happy. It has been so long since I’ve been happy it just feels strange. I’m waiting for something bad to happen.”
He caught her to him, pressing his forehead against hers. “I’ll never let anything bad happen to you. You’re not going back home without me, especially if you can feel pain again. You’re mated now, and your father’s got no excuse to keep you at him.” Packs were more possessive of their children. Unless the children were mated, parents expected their children to stay close to home. Her mother couldn’t get rid of her without her father knowing the truth.
“She won’t harm me around my dad.”
