Chapter 7

“On the seventh day of Christmas my werewolf gave to me seven perfect kisses, six packs of Oreos, five satisfied smiles, four hours of hotness, three growling males, two cursing pups, and a furball in a fir tree.

Jen’s not the only one who gets to make up the song.” ~Zara

Wadim paced the mansion’s archives, muttering. Every second his mate was not there with him was one second too many. The historian knew what was wrong, both with himself and his wolf, but he didn’t know how to tell Zara without scaring the living crap out of her.

His mate thought he didn’t want to complete their bond, which he knew made Zara feel as if he was rejecting her. And he’d given her every reason to think that, but not because it was true. In fact, it was the opposite. He wanted her so badly that he didn’t trust his own control. She’d been brutalized in the most horrific way a woman could be. Because of that, Zara didn’t need him pawing at her like a lust-filled teenage boy. She needed a man who could move slowly, gently, and with patience. When she’d told him she was ready, Wadim had to practically muzzle his wolf. Everything inside of him, every instinct, was telling him to carry her to their bed and strip her down, let her bite him, and make her his in every way possible. But the desire had been so strong it had paralyzed him. He hadn’t been able to move for fear of throwing her over his shoulder.

After Fane had declared a break from the Christmas preparations, Wadim had been in a lighthearted mood, thinking he and Zara would get to spend some time together. Wadim loved to play with his mate. It didn’t matter the game. He loved board games, wrestling, or a particular favorite of his—chase in the woods—even if she was in her human form. Maybe especially if she was in her human form. Wadim just loved being with her. He hadn’t been prepared for Zara to tell him what he’d been longing to hear. He’d been ready to wait years, especially after he found out everything she’d endured.

Wadim heard the door open at the top of the stairs. Her soft footsteps were slow, almost hesitant. He hated that he’d made her feel unsure. That he’d made her doubt his feelings and desire for her. “Get it together.” His wolf growled at him. And the beast was right. Wadim needed to pull himself together so he could be what his mate needed. He had to try and understand her choice, even if it made him feel inadequate. It wasn’t about him. This was about Zara.

When her form rounded the bottom of the staircase and she came into view, her beauty knocked the breath out of him, as it always did. She was a miracle. Wadim had given up on the idea of a true mate, but then there she was, crashing into him. From the moment he’d touched her, he hadn’t wanted to stop.
