unbreakable bonds

ch 39

Zee’s hands stayed gently on Nunew’s face, his thumbs brushing softly across his cheeks. The intensity in Nunew’s eyes had deepened, and Zee could feel the shift in the air between them, thick with the unspoken tension of their bond. Zee had always known that their connection was strong, but now, it seemed to be evolving into something even more profound.

Nunew leaned into Zee’s touch, his body trembling slightly as the overwhelming sensations coursed through him. His omega instincts were pulling him toward his alpha, seeking comfort, protection, and something more primal that he couldn’t fully understand. But despite the intensity of what he felt, Nunew knew he was safe with Zee.

“Hia…” Nunew whispered, his voice shaky. “I don’t know what’s happening, but… I need you.”

Zee’s heart clenched at the sound of his mate’s voice, filled with both need and uncertainty. He leaned in, pressing his forehead against Nunew’s, grounding him with his presence. “I’m right here, Nhu. I’m not going anywhere.”

Nunew’s breathing slowed as he focused on Zee, the familiar scent and warmth of his alpha anchoring him in the storm of emotions swirling within him. Zee had always been his safe haven, and right now, he needed that more than ever.

Zee pulled Nunew into his arms, holding him close as he felt the tension in his mate’s body slowly start to ease. “Whatever this is, we’ll figure it out together,” Zee murmured softly, his voice calm and reassuring. “You’re not alone in this.”

Nunew nodded against Zee’s chest, his eyes slowly returning to their normal color as the intensity of the moment began to fade. He clung to Zee, feeling the security that only his alpha could provide. The connection between them was undeniable, and Nunew knew that no matter what happened, they would face it together.

“I love you, Hia,” Nunew whispered, his voice steadier now as the calm washed over him.

Zee smiled, kissing the top of his head. “I love you too, Nhu. More than anything.”

The room was quiet now, the tension having melted away, leaving only the comforting presence of their bond. Nunew stayed nestled in Zee’s arms, feeling safe and protected, knowing that whatever changes were happening between them, their love would be the anchor that held them together.

For now, that was all that mattered.
