Ryon decided there was a lot to recommend slippery, soapy shower sex.

Pressing his mate into the tiles, buried balls deep in her while hot water streamed over their bodies, was just about the best feeling in the entire universe. Any way he could have her was fine by him. How had he ever lived without this? Without Daria?

Groaning, he emptied his seed inside her as she shuddered under him, squeezing every last drop from his length. Then he kissed the nape of her neck and nuzzled the soft, wet skin there.

“Am I forgiven?” She tensed, and he instantly regretted bringing up a tender subject. Too late now. He eased out of her and backed off some, allowing her to turn and face him.

“It’s not about forgiving you,” she said evenly. “In fact, what I’m going through is not about you at all.”

Hurt stabbed his chest. “I disagree. We’re in this together. You’re my mate, and what causes you to be unhappy does the same to me.”

Her expression softened and she touched his cheek. “I get that. And I don’t blame you for what happened to me because you would’ve given me the option to be turned if you could have.”

“That’s true.” He kissed her forehead.

“What I’m saying is you can’t magically make me happy with being part wolf.” Pausing, she searched his face. “Think back to when you were turned. Was there anything anyone said that made you accept it? Or did you just need time to get used to having your life turned upside down?”

“I needed time,” he admitted. “But I hope that getting me as part of the deal isn’t what’s making you unhappy.”

“Oh, Ryon,” she breathed. Softly, she took his mouth in a lingering kiss, twining her arms around his neck. “I am not unhappy with you. On the contrary, I feel pretty darned good about us. Can’t you tell?”

In truth, he’d been shutting off his awareness of their connection, afraid of being inundated with her scorn. Her anger. But her words encouraged him. Opening his senses tentatively, he found the golden bond stretched between them, thrumming with life. Some anxiety threaded through her emotions as she struggled with her wolf.

But much stronger was her affection for him, growing steadily into a richer connection. Every minute, she was falling deeper for him, and it both surprised him and took his breath away.

“Yes,” he whispered. “I can tell. I feel the same way.”

“Give me time to accept my wolf?”

“Anything you need.” Quickly he rinsed away the evidence of their loving. Stepping out of the shower, he grabbed two towels and handed her one. As they dried off, an idea occurred to him and he grew excited. “How about we go for a run tomorrow, in our wolf forms?”

“I don’t know . . .” Her brown eyes were worried.

Through their bond, he sensed her fear of the physical pain and hurried to reassure her. “The first shift hurts like a bitch, but it’s never like that again, I promise. The more practiced you get, it’s like breathing.
