Bella felt Zâs erection deflate and was well aware it wasnât because heâd just had a release. He was capable of going four or five orgasms at a clipâand that was on an average night, not after a dry spell of months and months.
âIâm so sorry,â she said, looking over her shoulder at the crib, feeling torn as to which one she tended to.
Zsadist took her face in his bandaged palms and turned her to him. âGo take care of the young. Iâll be fine.â
There was absolutely no censure in his eyes or his tone. But then, there never had been. Heâd never been resentful of Nalla; if anything heâd been too self-sacrificing.
âIâll just beââ
âTake your time.â
She got off the bed and went to the crib. Nalla reached her little hands out and calmed someâespecially as she was picked up.
Right. Wet diaper and hungry.
âI wonât be long.â
âNot to worry.â Z lay back against the black satin sheets, his scarred face no longer pulled in hungry lines, his body still, not straining.
She hoped it was because the orgasm had relaxed him. Feared it was because he didnât think sheâd be back anytime soon.
Bella nipped into the nursery, executed a fast diaper swap, then went to the rocker and gave Nalla what she needed. As she held her young and rocked, she realized how true it was that having a baby changed everything.
Including the concept of time.
What sheâd meant to be a quick fifteen-minute feeding turned into a two-hour fuss, throw-up, fuss, feed, throw-up, burp, cry, diaper-change, fuss, feed marathon.
When Nalla finally settled, Bella let her head fall back against the rocker in a familiar state of exhaustion and satisfaction.
The mother business was amazing, transformative, and a little addictiveâand she could now understand how females got way overfocused on their offspring. You were fed by taking care of and doing right by them. You were also all-powerful as The Mother. Anything she said went when it came to Nalla.
Thing was, though, she missed being Zâs shellan. Missed waking up with him moving on top of her, hot and hungry. Missed the feel of his fangs going deep into her throat. Missed the way that scarred face of his looked after theyâd made love, all flushed and soft and full of reverence and love.
The fact that he was so hard with everyone else, even his Brothers, made his sweetness with her even more special. Always had.
God, that dream of his. She wasnât willing to say it changed everything between them, but it changed enough so that she wouldnât leave him now. What she wasnât sure of was what came next. Z required more help than she could provide him. He needed professional intervention, not just loving support from his mate.
Maybe there was a way Mary could step in. She had a counseling background and had been the one to teach him to read and write. There was no way he would talk to a stranger, but Mary . . .
Ah, hell, there was no way heâd talk to Rhageâs shellan about the ins and outs of his past.
