Chapter Eleven
She awoke a few minutes later with a groan. Ken wanted to hover over her, but he noticed how Beck moved closer to the bed, on alert and ready to jump in again to protect Ken from her if necessary.
She sat up with Ken’s help, one hand holding the washcloth to her face. With a sheepish glance at Beck, she said, “Thanks.”
He nodded. Her voice had returned to normal. None of the growling, threatening undertone remained.
“Want me to hang around, or are you okay?” he asked.
“I’m okay.” Her eyes widened as she looked at Ken and started checking him. “Are you okay?”
He grabbed her hands and kissed them. “I’m okay.”
That’s when she burst into tears and threw her arms around him.
Over her shoulder, Beck nodded to him with a grim expression before showing himself out and quietly shutting the bedroom door behind him.
“I’m so sorry,” she sobbed, over and over against his shirt. “I could have hurt you. I’m so sorry.”

Dewi’s panicked worry crumbled into relief as Ken gathered her into his arms, cradling her, his chin lightly rubbing the top of her head.
“Shh, it’s okay. I’m fine. No harm. Are you okay? He hit you pretty damn hard.”
“I’m okay,” she softly said, slowly calming.
They sat like that for several minutes as she collected herself. She didn’t want to move, afraid she’d awaken to find she really had hurt him. The stupid thing was that part of her had wanted to feel his teeth sink into her flesh, to mark her.
Someone to take care of her for a change, someone she could let go to.
But that was silly, because Ken was a human, not a wolf. It was her job to protect him. That’s what she did. Enforcers protected people. Then her Prime Alpha had roared out of its cage, unstoppable. She’d panicked, unable to even think about trying to rein it in and instead screaming for Beck to come save her.
Well, to come save Ken.
She clutched his arm as she listened to his heart beating under her ear, strong and steady. Yes, her jaw hurt, and so did the back of her head, but those would be fine by morning.
Her mate was safe. That’s all she cared about.
I owe Beck an apology. She never thought about her Prime like that before. It had never come up like that before, only when she was in a fight. I need better control.
She wanted to feel Ken inside her, right then. To prove to herself that he was alive and well. But when she reached up to pull his face down to hers for a kiss, he caught her hands and kissed her fingers again.
“Let’s talk first,” he said.
She took a deep breath and nodded.
“How about explaining to me what just happened. Badger told me a little.”
She felt her face redden. Yes, she should have had this talk with him early on, but they’d been too busy…
Well, okay, so I wanted to fuck his brains out instead of talk.
