Finding Trust and Honesty (bxb)

Chapter 37*

I felt tired but satisfied, hopefully, Caesar was right and breeding me like he had will keep my season calm, at least until tomorrow.

My vision slowly came back and I dozed in the meantime, knowing we'd be stuck together for a while. Caesar had rolled us over and from the slow and even breaths puffing against my neck he'd fallen asleep, his arms still holding me tightly against him.

I did want to get back soon, I'm sure Grace could manage in the kitchen for a while, I'd planned everything out on paper so my anxiety kept quiet, so she'd know what needs to come out when and all the recipes were on paper as well. Well, except my brownie recipe but I'd made those first since they took so long to cook and so long to cool, I knew the recipe off by heart anyway. I couldn't wait for Caesar to try them, just to see his reaction and I liked baking for people I cared about, it gave me a sense of fulfilment, I put my love into my food.

I gasped quietly when I felt my walls unlock from around him, the sudden relaxation of the tired muscles felt good. Caesar must have felt it too as he stirred, letting out a soft groan amongst gentle, rumbling growls. His knot started to go down and his teeth raked over my neck before he rubbed his nose over my scent gland with a contented sound.

"What's got you so chipper?" I yawned.

"I bred you darlin', and your body accepted my breeding since it held me for a while, and even your scent." I heard him breathe in deeply and he growled. "You smell so good, you smell like your mine, I bred you, I bred my mate," he growled possessively.

"If I smell like yours can we go back home? I've got to finish cooking." I asked him.

A purred rumble came from him, his arms squeezing me tight for a moment, face buried in the crook of my neck and nuzzling against my scent gland.

I was confused why he was so happy at the words, he'd eaten a few day's worth of food already today so it couldn't be for more food, but why was he growling like that? A growl so soft and affectionate I could barely hear it but could feel, if not the vibrations of the chest against me then the way our bond sang at his obvious joy.

His lips brushed against my skin, slowly trailing up the column of my neck. "Darlin'." he sighed softly in my ear. "You have no idea how happy you've made me."

My face scrunched up a little in confusion.

I twisted around in his grasp, his now limp cock slipping free from my ass, my breath hitched at the feeling but what really caught my breath were Caesar's eyes. I'd never seen them so light, and for the second time today, they were glistening with tears. They were practically golden, a dark yellow like the petals of a daffodil. My hands cupped his face, thumbs brushing under the golden watery orbs. "Caesar..." I breathed in a whisper.

My wolf was letting out soft, high-pitched whines, his tail whipping wildly behind him, front paws taking tiny steps but not going anywhere, appearing to dance.

I know his eyes went black with anger and red from lust, but what about yellow?

He leaned in and kissed me, his lips plump and slick against mine, moving in slow and bold movements. I was stunned by the tenderness of the kiss, he usually ravaged my mouth until my lips were numb, it was still intense but gentle at the same time, he wasn't devouring my mouth but claiming it, one lip at a time.
