His body was still shaking as my legs dropped to the ground. His breathing was uneven as he tried to regain some control.

“I’m sorry,” he said.

I looked at him like he was crazy and threw my head back and laughed. “Do not ever apologize for that!” I kissed him until his body began to relax and his breathing started to even. Without a word, I took his hand and led him to the bedroom. It would have been easy to have sealed our bond during our frenzied foyer adventure. I felt my fangs begin to descend twice, but after all I had put him through. I needed to do this with a clear head. His pants, underwear, shoes, socks and jacket were strewn throughout the front room, wherever they happened to land. He then made quick work of removing his shirt and tie, and sat on the edge of the bed with his feet dangling. He watched me closely as I slowly stripped off my own clothes, my eyes never leaving his. I was naked and vulnerable in front of my mate as I closed the gap between us.

“What do you want to talk about?” he asked, his voice still heavily lust laden as he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me flush against him.

I couldn’t speak. I pulled my hair together at the base of my neck then brushed it to one side. I bared my neck to him. He leaned in, trembling, and kissed the spot where I knew his mark would soon be. I could feel the longing in him. It surprised me, as it was the first sign of our bond truly taking root.

“It’s time,” I told him.

His eyes widened and darkened, staring at me with questioning surprise. I nodded and kept my neck exposed.

He sucked in a sharp breath. “You’re sure of this?”

“I don’t think I’ve ever been more certain of anything.”

His eyes flashed with something I didn’t recognize and when he smiled, I saw his fangs descending. My mate was as ready as I was. His hands skimmed up my waist sending shivers through me and he nudged me closer. I kissed him and knew he was going to try and escalate it, but I pulled back. He looked confused.

“I’m ready, now,” I told him.

He shook his head. “E, there’s a reason sex and the bonding seal go hand and hand. It’s supposed to take away the apprehension and the sting. I don’t want to hurt you.”

I smiled. “You won’t, and I don’t want to be influenced by sex or anything else. Okay?”

“You’re sure?”

I nodded. He took my face in his hands and kissed me gently. He didn’t move to seal our bond right away and for a minute I thought I may have to be the one to start. He placed his forehead against

mine and breathed my scent in deeply.

“There’s something you need to know before we do this.”

I stiffened. It sounded important, and at a time like this, I couldn’t imagine what could be more

important. His eyes were clear blue and sincere staring into my soul.

“I love you, Elise. You may drive me insane sometimes and I’m probably going to go prematurely bald with you around, but I need you to know, I want you, not just because of the mating call. I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”

Tears sprang to my eyes. I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him close. It’s what I had always wanted in a mate. He didn’t know just how much his words meant to me.

As much as I wanted to say them back, I just couldn’t. I wasn’t ready, but I felt the prick of his teeth against my neck, and I followed his lead as my own fangs descended and pierced his skin. For one perfect moment frozen in time, our bond sealed. The taste of his blood was better than I ever imagined and it consumed me in lust. Before we separated he was deep inside me once again. For one perfect moment we wholly joined in body, soul, and heart. I couldn’t say the words yet, but I could show him in my own way.

Afterwards we lay in each other’s arms just grinning. I didn’t think the smile was coming off Patrick’s face anytime soon and my face hurt from smiling so much.

“It’s really late, love. We should at least try to get some sleep.”

“I have a better idea. How about a run?” My wolf surged forward and I imagined her wagging her tail happily at the idea.

“Okay, let’s do it.”

We walked outside hand in hand, not parting until we were ready to shift. I had run with Patrick’s wolf before, but that had been different. I was still trying to hide from him then, and while my wolf

had refused to cooperate, we were not at peace that night in our disagreement. There was something extra special about shifting with him and staying by his side the entire time. Our wolves wouldn’t stop rubbing up against each other. I could already smell our combined scent and knew everyone would know the moment they saw us together. I didn’t care. It was done and I wanted every available female within five packs to know and understand that this one was mine. I was finally. ready to accept whatever challenges lay before us, and I knew what Kelsey had tried to get me to understand. This, him, it was all worth it..
