The deep rumbling of my wolf guardian gives me solace and comforts my breaking heart. Deep down, I know he will give his existence to save me, only to have him rise again and again like a dark phoenix. My fingers thread through his thick fur, petting him. I know I should have sought out one of my mates instead, but right now I just need to be.

“Thana love?” Christian says softly from the other side of the room. I raise my head, looking over my wolf’s back and look at him. The sadness in his eyes makes my chest tighten, and it's hard to breathe. I’ve seen this look before from him, it usually occurred after each failed Mate Trials where he came back empty handed. The thought that I have caused him pain makes me feel ill.

Gently, I pet Fenrir and bid him to return. His giant wolf tongue gently licks my cheek before he returns to my tattoo. I stare down at my arm, at his inked likeness, and stroke his body. A soft sigh escapes my lips. “Sorry for worrying you.” I turn and look down and away from him. Guilt wracks my heart. I caused my sweet protective mate undeserved pain.

“Kichōna mono, don’t be sorry. It’s my honor to be allowed to worry about you and for you.” Christian closes the distance between us and sits beside me on the bed. His hand comes up, caressing my cheek so tenderly. “Let’s go get you cleaned up. You smell like a hellhound.” He scrunches his nose and sticks his tongue out.

I laugh and slide off the bed. “Oh, ok, fine …”

Walking across the room, I can feel Christians eyes upon me. My confidence wavers as my steps carry me across the space. I make my way towards the bathroom and flick on the light; piece by piece, I drop my clothes on the floor. Christian is different than Raphael, he’s been my best friend and confidant over the years. Raphael was the unattainable boss that was always just out of reach. Angels like Christian have the choice of whom they can bond with besides their destined mate. So, the fact that Christian waited all this time after his first wife died says something about the type of man he is. Me being his mate drops all the previous barriers between us. His request to take Gage before him makes me think he doesn’t see me as anything other than his best friend.

I adjust the temperature of the water in the shower and try to clear my head of all the negativity. The fact that he has followed me into the bathroom hopefully indicates that he’s interested in me. My nerves are starting to get the better of me as I set the bathroom up for my shower. I’m second guessing everything I’ve ever thought to be true.

“Kichōna mono, let me help you.” Christian’s voice is so soft as his hands rest lightly on my shoulders. I look over my shoulder at him; he’s completely bare before me.
