His brows rose, and a grin floated over his lips. “What? Me finally kicking my own ass and coming for the one woman I’ve ever loved?”
She didn’t want to let it, but his words warmed her. She’d never truly believed he loved her. Not because he didn’t say the words, but he just wasn’t there to prove it. She’d lived most of their relationship alone.
“Yeah.” She cleared her throat. “Something like that. Why now? Why did you wait almost a full year to do something about us?”
He shoved his hands in his pocket and leaned back by the restaurant’s bar. “Stupidity. I wanted you to come back to me. I knew you loved me. I didn’t think you were serious at first. That you really wanted to leave when we both knew we were right for each other. So good together.”
She pursed her lips and folded her arms over her chest. “You really thought that sex would bring me back?” She shook her head. “You must not really know me then.”
“It’s not that I don’t know you. I was so busy, Kari. Too busy. I thought you understood the responsibility I had in my hands. It was too much for one person to handle on his own.” He scrubbed a hand over his jaw. “I realized after you left that I needed to take on less work and have a life.”
Lovely. He’d realized, once she’d gotten tired of sitting around alone, to make time for a woman. She didn’t want to ask him how many he’d been with in the past year. She’d later found out he was a bear-shifter and researched as much as possible about his species. It didn’t surprise her to know he could turn into a giant bear. She’d known shifters existed and he had that big body that most normal men didn’t have. Besides, she knew shifters loved them some curves. It surprised her to know how committed they could be when they found their mates.
“Why didn’t you tell me you were a bear-shifter?” she asked.
He glanced down at the floor before meeting her gaze. “I...I didn’t want to scare you.”
She huffed a breath and stomped her foot. “Scare me? What the hell do I look like some weak little human? Why would you telling me you were a bear scare me?”
He grinned. “A lot of women get scared of shifters. They think we’re going to hurt them somehow, during sex or if we become angry.”
“Those women are clearly idiots.” She rolled her eyes and turned away. “This is the kind of stuff we should have talked about but never could, because you weren’t there. How is it that you’re now ready but still holding things back? Until I asked you, I didn’t see you being forthcoming with the information. Did you think I didn’t realize how hard it was for you to stay human?”
He clenched his jaw and stared her down. “I would have told you. I wanted us to spend some time together again.
