Atticus POV

Tears tumbled down my cheeks as I laid alone in bed. The Luna had everyone running around, including Sylis, trying to get the wedding ready. I never got to see him because he always came in late and was too tired or I was asleep because the Luna made me sleepy.

I glanced at the clock and saw the green numbers glow ten o'clock. I heard the door click open and quickly whipped my eyes and presented to be asleep. If it was Sylis I didn't want to keep him up any longer then he had too.

"Atticus? Baby what's wrong?" Sylis' voice said softly from beside me."I know you're not asleep." He said as the bed dipped by my stomach.

I peeked my eyes open only to have the tears rebuild.

"At-atticus not ge-get to see Sylis cause Lu-Luna ta-tak away an-and Sylis come home late and n-nit get to see." I hiccupped, tears tumbling down my cheeks.

"Baby come here." He said sotftly and pulled me into his lap.

I let him pull me and once I was close enough I grabbed his shirt and pulled myself closer. His scent floating into my nose making me sob that I've only smelt it in the room for the past few days.

"Shhh I've got you, I'm sorry I've been coming home late. I want this wedding to be perfect and I'm working my hardest so it can be." He said softly and kissed my head. "Tell you what tomorrow I'm going to spend the whole day with you. How's that sound?" He asked softly.

I nodded my head yes and and buried my nose into his nape to get more of his scent. Slowly he shifted under me to strip down to his boxers. Once he was undressed he laid down and covered us up with the blanket.

I felt his hand tangle themselves in my hair and I purred. I moved my head so it laid on his chest, and my hand that held the ring rested right next to me. I looked at the sliver band and moved it around my finger with my thumb.

Sylis took my hand and intertwined our fingers together. He brought my hand to his lips and kisses every finger and then my ring.

"I love you baby." He purred and pulled me closer.

"Atticus love Sylis too." I said nuzzling my cheek into his chest.

Slowly his hand ran up and down my back until my eyelid's became heavy. Slowly I let myself slip into my dream world in content my mate was next to me.

Sylis POV

I sighed as I looked down at Atticus. I felt extremely horrible that I was to busy to be with him. I changed my hand from running down his back to intertwining my fingers in his hair.

I was going to spend all day with him tomorrow no matter what. Slowly I drifted to sleep and tightened my grip on Atticus only pulling him closer.

I woke up the next morning, Atticus tracing circles on my chest. I chuckled and kissed his head making him purr.

"Let's go get a bath baby." I said standing up and collecting him in my arms.

I ran the bath water and stripped down as well as Atticus who had a small blush on his cheeks as he set his ring on the counter. Once the bath was filled the tub I sank into the warm water, him following right after me. I wetted our hair and grabbed the shampoo. We proceeded into washing each others hair and then just relax in the tub.

I looked down at his content face as he laid on my chest, a small smile in his lips as he played with my hand. I kissed his nape making him sigh.

"My sweet boy I'm sorry I was so busy I couldn't be with you." I cooed.

"It OK. Sylis here with Atticus now all yaht matters." He said turning over so he straddled my waist.

He leaned up and captured my lips in a slow kiss a smile on his face. I pulled back and licked eyes with him, bringing my hand up to his cheek. He moved his face into my palm and sighed.

"You are too good for me." I sighed and pecked his lips once again.
