Chapter Twelve

Mason didn’t take his attention from Lucy as Drew left, the healer quietly closing the door behind him. Mason had summoned the healer the moment Lucy lost consciousness and Drew… had been less than pleased at Mason for shifting. Even now, the words continued to flutter through his mind.

“She’s fighting for her life, Mason,” Drew scolded him. “Next time you want to impress your mate, do it when she’s healthy, okay?”

Mason slumped in the chair by her bed, wishing Drew had given him a chance to explain. He’d only wanted to give her the proof she’d needed, but inside he knew the truth. He’d wanted his prove himself worthy to his mate. He’d wanted to show her his wolf and parade around for his mate.

Listening hard, he could just make out the conversation between his brothers and the NC. Kade and Gavin invited them to the main dining room for dinner, which was just fine by Mason. Roman, Silas and Dane might be his superiors, but nothing would come between him and his mate.

Lucy became restless and whined in her sleep, the sound not stopping until Mason clasped her hand. She sighed and settled just as he suspected, his touch calming her. Maybe lying next to her would ease even more of her discomfort.

Mason had slipped on his boxer briefs after returning to his human form. While he normally slept in the nude just in case he needed to shift on the fly, he crawled under the covers with them on to keep himself from going wild with desire for his mate. He gathered her in his arms and pulled her into his body, realizing his meager efforts were futile. Her curves fit into his hard planes softly and perfectly, making his body react in an instant without restraint.

It took hours for him to fall asleep, and one dream occupied his mind all night—claiming Lucy. His exhaustion so deep from hardly any sleep, not even the sun streaming through the windows woke him the next morning. No, that honor was reserved for children squealing with delight as they ran up and down the hallways.

Mason cracked open one eye and groaned as he squinted into the brightness of the room. He’d forgotten to close the blinds the night before and while the sun seared his eye, the brightness at least gave him a good view of Lucy. They’d shifted around in their sleep until she now lay on her side within reach. A fact he’d somehow taken advantage of during the night. He’d slung his arm protectively around her waist. Her skin glowed—flushed pink in a way that reminded him of passionate nights tangled in the sheets and he went hard in an instant. Only for a soft groan to bring him back to earth and bathe him in shame for lusting after her while she fought for her life.

Mason snuggled closer, careful to keep his cock away from her tempting, heart-shaped ass. Lucy stiffened in his arms, body ramrod straight and tense.
