“Sweet talk won’t get you another pup,” I mutter, causing him to push me to my back as he towers over me.
“No, my knot will get me another pup,” he says. “The sweet talk is just me worshipping my mate.”
I roll my eyes. “You’re trying to seduce me.”
“Always,” he admits. “But I value your consent, Caja. You know that, right?”
I do.
He’s never forced me to do anything.
Never taken me against my will.
Always ensures my comfort above everything else.
And completes me in every single way.
Because he’s my Alpha. My mate. My perfect wolf.
I cup his cheek and smile. “I love you, too,” I tell him. “More than I ever thought possible.”
And the same goes for our little hellion.
Our Hel.
“You’ve given me reason to breathe,” I murmur. “And for that, I will always be grateful.”
“Just as you provided me with a future I never knew I needed,” he whispers back to me. “And for that, I will always be yours.”
