My breath hitches when he continues to finger me while his tongue now teases my clit. “Oh fuck,” I moan. “I need you inside me.”
Dante smiles, leaving my core and starting his journey back up, kissing his way up to my breasts. It’s almost excruciatingly slow. The fucking tease. Before I can complain, he scoots me up again, pressing me against the wall. He fidgets slightly before I see his pants drop down. I bury my fingers in his hair, closing my eyes and feeling how he pushes his dick into me in one go. His head rests between my breasts, and he takes advantage of this position, making sure to suck at my nipples, licking and biting at them, while I can do nothing but just hold onto him.
“Fuck yes,” I moan when I feel how he picks up the pace of his thrusts, burying his hard dick deep inside me. One of his hands rests against my ass, massaging my sensitive flesh, while his other hand moves between our bodies again to find my clit. He is completely in charge now, giving me everything I ask for and more.
All these sensations are almost overwhelming me, my walls clenching around his dick. I can feel his cock pulsating inside me, indicating how close he is. My body tenses as my orgasm washes over me, making me tremble and moan his name. Dante fills me with his seed, keeping my body close and leaning us both against the wall while he comes down from his high.
“You are so hot,” he says. “Fuck, Ella. My beautiful mate, I love you.”
“I love you too,” I say with a smile, feeling all warm and fuzzy inside.
Dante lets me down again, grabbing my hips so I won’t stumble. He makes sure I go to the bathroom to get a bath while he cleans up behind us. Half an hour later, Dante joins me in the tub, sitting behind me and pulling me into his arms. The warm water engulfs us. I don’t know what it is, but suddenly I feel so vulnerable.
“D,” I start. “Do you think I’d be a good mom?”
Dante is silent for a while, clearly surprised by my question. “Where did that come from, Ella?”
“Just answer it, please,” I say.
“Ella, you already are a good mother. You are everything to Charlie. This alone is proof of how good of a mother you actually are.”
I turn in his arms to look at him carefully. “Do you think you’d be a good dad?”
A hint of pain flashes through his eyes.
“You don’t…” I look at him. “Is this the reason you are not pushing for a pup?”
“It is.” He looks sad. “Because I already failed once.”
“But don’t you see it?” I ask him. “How good you are with Charlie? How you were never upset that she pushed you away first? You were patient and understanding. You and Sylvan immediately accepted her as yours, just like that.”
“But that’s because she is ours,” he says. “She is your niece, and with that, she is also our family.”
“Exactly.” I smile. “If this makes me a mom already, doesn’t it make you a dad too? Every child would be incredibly lucky to have you as their father. I know you would be kind and patient and love them unconditionally.”
For a long while, Dante doesn’t say anything. He just keeps looking at me before his eyes fill with tears. “I’m terrified,” he admits.
“I know,” I say quietly. “I don’t want to push you, but I want you to know I’m ready. Whenever you are, we can try for a baby.”
“I want a pup,” he says. “I want to have a baby with you.”
“Are you sure you are ready?” I ask him.
“No,” he says, but he smiles a bit through his tears. “My fear is part of me, but my wish for a family with you is bigger.”

Silas
*ELLA*
It’slikeI’mwalkingon cloud seven when I meet Annie the next day. It takes a bit for us to have a moment just the both of us because either Jun, Liam, or Dante are always around, but eventually they all head to prepare for the work of the day. Annie and I make sure to visit Charlie briefly before we leave to meet with Silas.
On our way to the infirmary, I give her the short version of what Dante and I talked about.
“Ella,” Annie squeals, jumping forward to hug me. “I’m so happy for you!”
“It’s just a talk we had,” I say. “But I feel like we really reached a little milestone.”
