“I love you too.” I said, as I lifted my legs and wr*pped them around him.
“I love your smile.”
th**st…
“I love the sound of your voice when you tell me that you love me.”
th**st…
“I love your scent and your taste.”
th**st…
“I love that little frown you have every morning because you would like to sleep in.”
th**st…
“I love your burnt pancakes.”
th**st…
“I love how kind and loving you are.”
th**st…
“I love that you love me even though I am an idiot who almost let you go.”
th**st…
“I f**king love every part of your body and your soul.”
Deeper and harder th**st…
“Oh, Logan.” I m**ned as I started clenching around him.
“Come with me, baby.” he said as he captured my l*ps with his.
I fell apart around him. I saw stars. I felt the fire inside me consume every part of me.
I felt him pulsate inside of me, and his th**sts stopped.
I opened my eyes. He was already looking at me with so much love that I almost started crying.
“I love you.” I told him, stopping the tears from falling down. “I am completely yours. Now and forever.”
His l*ps crashed against mine as he started moving in and out of me again.
I tightened my legs around him, pushing him deeper inside me and making him groan.
We weren’t going to leave our bed anytime soon, and I was so ready to spend the night like this. I needed it. I needed him.
I needed to show him how much I loved him.
I needed to show him that nothing and no one would ever take me away from him.
Andrew POV
“I wish I could do something to help.” Daisy sighed as she massaged my neck.
Her touch sent shivers down my spine. I looked up at her and smiled.
“Your touch helps, honey.” I told her.
It did help. It helped a lot. But nothing could take away the ache in my heart.
I was worried about my friend. What the hell would happen to Logan if he lost his mate? I couldn’t even imagine what he was going through right now. I didn’t want to imagine.
I was in pain because my sister was in pain. I could see the panic in her eyes. I could feel the fear radiating off of her. I could tell how confused and sad she was, and it made me want to burn the world down.
I was also so f**king scared that this new mate would take Emma from me. I knew how selfish that was, but I just couldn’t stop thinking about it.
What if he was her Goddess-given mate? What if he took her to his pack? What if he took her from me?
Asher stirred and growled.
‘She is my sister.’ he said as his anger grew. ‘She is my pup. No one is taking her away.’
I took a deep breath and tried to ignore his anger. I had enough of my own. I didn’t need to deal with his as well.
Daisy bent down and placed a small k**s on my l*ps. I melted. I loved her so f**king much.
“I can’t even imagine what Logan is going through.” she mumbled as she sat down on my lap.
I r*bbed her belly and placed a k**s on her shoulder.
I couldn’t imagine it either.
If someone tried to take Daisy from me…
If there was another man who was her true mate…
Pain consumed my body, and I growled.
“Mine.” I said as I cupped her face and k**sed her as hard as I could.
She understood immediately. She wr*pped her arms around my neck and deepened our k**s.
“I am yours, honey.” she said softy as she stopped k**sing me. “No one is taking me from you. There is no other man who could call me his. Only you.”
The pain in my body lessened, and I gave her a small smile.
“I love you, honey.” I told her softly.
“I love you too.” she said, smiling back at me.
Andrew? Emma mind-linked me, and my heart skipped a beat.
Yes, love? I answered immediately. Is everything okay?
Logan had to go to his office. Emma said. He told me to stay home, but I can’t be alone. I will go crazy. Can I come over, please?
Goddess, love, you don’t even have to ask. I said immediately. This is your home.
Thank you. She said. I will be right there.
She cut our mind-link, and I focused on my mate.
“Was it Emma?” he asked.
“Yes.” I nodded. “She is coming over.”
“I’m going to make her some coffee.” Daisy said as she stood up from my lap. “Do you want some?”
“Yes, honey, thank you.” I said as I took a deep breath.
Daisy gave me another k**s before she walked away and started making coffee.
My heart clenched painfully. I couldn’t wait to see Emma. I needed to know that she was here. I needed to know that no one had taken her from me.
I breathed out in relief when I heard the front door open.
“Emma.” Daisy exclaimed, rushing toward the living room.
“Goddess, Daisy.” I mumbled as I walked toward the stove, keeping my eye on the boiling water.
She left everything just to go to Emma.
“Oh, sweetie, I am so sorry.” I heard Daisy’s voice. “How are you? Did you even sleep? You don’t look well.”
Emma answered, but I couldn’t hear what she said.
My heart raced as I looked toward the kitchen door.
Was everything okay with Emma?
They walked into the kitchen, and my eyes went to Emma’s face immediately. She looked so sad and worried. It made my heart break.
Emma looked at me, and I knew that she needed me. I could tell. I raised her. I knew her.
I approached her and pulled her into a hug. She wr*pped her arms around me as tightly as she could.
“It’s going to be okay, love.” I said as I k**sed the top of her head. “Everything is going to be okay.”
She took a deep breath and let me go.
“I’ve been trying to come up with a plan.” she said as she sat down at the table. “I think I’ve figured something out, but I need your opinion.”
“Of course, love.” I said as I sat down next to her and pulled her closet to me.
I k**sed her temple and took a deep breath.
It was okay. She was here. She would stay here. No one would take her from me.
“Did you tell Logan about the plan?” Daisy asked her as she placed our mugs down at the table.
“Thank you.” Emma said, smiling up at her. “And no. I want to think of something before I tell him. This is stressful enough for him.”
This was stressful for her too.
“So, what’s the plan?” I asked her as I took a small sip of my coffee.
“Are you going to stay with Logan?” Daisy asked before Emma could answer.
“Of course.” Emma said immediately. “I don’t care about all that Goddess-given and cursed stuff. I will stay with him even if he isn’t my Goddess-given mate. I don’t need a second mark. I don’t need any powers. I need him.”
I was so f**king proud of her.
