WARNING: There is sex in this chapter. I'll put in marks before it starts so you can skip it if you wish.

Arcee has stopped squirming and shouting by the time Predaking reaches the upper haul deck. He walks through the door with Arcee still in his arms and sits down while holding Arcee tightly. When he feels Arcee shift, trying to turn around, he loosens his grip to let her move freely but he keeps his arms hovering around her so he can catch her if she tries to make a break for the door.

But Arcee has no intentions to run back inside, she turns around to face him and she saddles his hips, resting on her knees. She wraps her arms around him as she rests her helm on his chest, her spark aching at the thought of possibly losing her teammates, her friends. She feels her spark breaking into a million pieces but she tries to get through it and hang onto hope that they're still alive, that they saw it coming and managed to get out of the way or found a way to counter-attack or something.

Predaking's spark breaks with hers and for the first time in his life, both past life and current life, he feels torn. He's torn between wanting to continue serving Megatron, his lord and master, and wanting to tend to and serve his mate, the love of his life, his queen. When he decided to make her his mate he never thought that he might eventually have to choose between her and Megatron, but he told Megatron that his mate's happiness would always be top priority and that will always be the case, even if he has to help her escape and part from her to make her happy. He will protect his love from all Decepticons, including Shockwave and Megatron.

He carefully rubs her back with the back of his claws as he sends her a wave of love to help comfort her. Arcee closes her optics, "Thank you."

"Anything for you, my queen."

Arcee raises her helm to look up at him, he really has been treating her like a queen, his queen. He's been so gentle with her and treating her like she's everything to him, thinking back on it she feels awful for how she treated him at the beginning. She was only into earning his trust to protect herself, for her safety, and to have security and protection. She had no intention to have any kind of relationship with him, maybe acquaintance or sort of friends but that was it, nothing more. Now she feels bad for trying to use him like that, he's done nothing but take care of her, protect her, and try to make her happy. He completely fell in love with her and treated her like a queen.

She looks into his yellow optics as she feels that strange bond again, not the sparkbond they now have but the bond they felt before when she was petting him while he was in beast form. It was as though something bonded them together the moment he was recreated but neither of them can figure out how it could have happened. "I love you, Predaking."

Predaking's spark fills with so much happiness hearing her actually say it. He leans in and kisses her very passionately, Arcee feels like he's trying to devour her mouth and she tries to kiss back with just as much passion.

Music starts playing with the song beginning off on drums and playing on into some soft instrumental. Predaking pulls back to look at her a bit confused, "What's that?"

Arcee couldn't help but giggle at his lack of knowledge of human stuff, "It's what humans call music," she says as a female starts singing.

"I could lose my heart tonight if you don't turn and walk away

'Cause the way I feel I might lose control and let you stay"

"It's a song I found a long time ago and have been listening to it since, it's one of my favorites."
