Willow
Mate? She was his mate? Willow couldn’t say a word. All logical thought left her as she stared at him. It was a very rare occurrence that someone could make her speechless but Max had done it. Finally, she took a breath as she spoke, having to clear her throat once before any words would come out.
“How can I be your mate, Max? You’re a wolf and I’m human with no extraordinary gifts except that I can twist a cherry stem using just my tongue.”
Max laughed at that and her cheeks heated before she laughed with him. “No seriously, Max. How is that possible?”
“Who knows how Fate works, Willow but I’ve known you were my mate since you were 18. But you were just starting your life and you were Ash’s sister. I watched you grow up. But when you found us after the graduation ceremony carrying your diploma, “I knew.”
“Max, I…”
He put a finger over her lips. “There’s nothing for you to say, Willow. I just needed you to know how I felt. I thought I’d lost you forever when you got married but when you divorced and came here to take care of your parents, I knew I had another chance.”
Willow just looked at him trying to understand and take in everything he was saying. She had loved him her entire life but, like he had said, he had seen her grow up and he was her brother's best friend. There could never be anything between them. So she went on with her life. She went to college, got her degree in mechanical engineering and met her ex husband. She knew now that she had never loved Darwyn. Their relationship had been based on nothing more than two young adults starting out and mistaking lust and desire for love.
“Look, Willow, just forget what I said. I’m hoping that we can be friends, get to know each other again and maybe, just maybe…”
“I love you too, Max.” The words rushed out of her before she even thought about saying them. Max had stopped talking, his mouth opened a moment before he closed it. “I have all my life. Being here with you like this is something I’ve dreamed about forever.”
His arm tightened around her and he crushed his lips to hers, her arms moving slowly up his chest to wrap around his neck. This kiss was different from the ones they had shared tonight. This one was deep, sensual and held promises that she wasn’t sure she was even worthy of getting. This kiss held more than just love. It held commitment and desire and everything she’d ever wanted from life, from him.
When Max finally lifted his head, her lips were swollen and tingled. She wanted more from him, so much more but she had questions that seemed to get in the way of any other feelings she had. “I have questions, Max. A lot of questions but I can’t think while I'm in your arms like this.”
