* * * *

Ahm grunted as he smacked Bryce’s hand away. “I can get it.”

“Hit me one more time and I’ll tuck the sheets so far into the bed that you’ll be trapped here.”

Thinning his lips, Ahm rested back as Bryce changed the bandage on his leg. He wasn’t sure how much more he could take of the bear nursemaid. He wasn’t a damn invalid!

Ahm was also getting hard as steel with Bryce messing between his legs. He was a man, after all, and he wasn’t immune to his mate. His cock began to thicken when Bryce rubbed the antibiotic cream over the stitches. His mate knew damn well what he was doing, because there was a sparkle in his light-grey eyes.

He tried to think of anything other than his mate’s thick, scarred hands running over his inner thigh, but it was impossible. Ahm had had his fair share of lovers, but none had been his mate. And none affected him the way Bryce did. Just a simple touch and he was ready to roll the bear over and fuck him.

“It looks like it’s healing nicely,” Bryce commented as he grabbed a towel and wiped the cream off of his hand. “I’ll call Dr. Sheehan tomorrow and see if we can’t get you cleared of bed rest.”

“I can leave the bed anytime I wish.”

Bryce tossed the towel onto the bed. “Do you always have to be so combative? What the hell is your deal? I’m trying my goddamn best to remember the things you’ve lost because your tribe found out you’re mated to a male shifter, but give me one good reason why I shouldn’t wash my hands of you.”

Ahm heard the tension in Bryce’s tone. The man was at the end of his patience. “You don’t know me,” Ahm shot at the man. It was a flimsy response, but he felt like Bryce could see right through him.

“I highly doubt anyone knows you. You’re so damn flip-floppy. Do you even know who you are?”

Ahm clenched his jaw. “I’m the only one who does.” Grabbing the sheet, Ahm flipped it back over his legs, wishing Bryce would just leave.

“Damn, are you really that alone?”

Ahm wasn’t going to hide from the truth. Not with Bryce. “Try ruling a tribe of Shadow elves who are so stuck in tradition and prejudice that their very own race is dying out. Try living with a cousin who would rather stab you in the back than help you. Try wondering every single day of your life if someone is truly befriending you or if they have an ulterior motive because you are their leader and status means everything to them.”

Ahm was tired of the burden. He didn’t want to lead the Shadow elves any longer. He had ruled them for over three hundred years. It was time he gave the mantle of leadership to someone else and enjoyed his time.

“Sounds like being a leader really sucks.” Bryce took a seat on the bed, resting his hand on Ahm’s shin.
