I stared at him wide eyed, was he serious? He loved me back? HE LOVED ME BACK! A grin broke out on my face, and without warning, I pounced on him. Well, not really, but I jumped onto his lap, latching my legs around his waist. My arms wrapped around his neck, and I buried my face into his chest, clutching him tightly.

He was surprised for a minute, but then he snaked his arms around my waist, pulling me even closer. He nuzzled his face into my neck, taking in my scent.

"So much.." He whispered, tightening his hold on me. I pulled back, pressing my lips hard onto his. He .kissed me back fiercely, growling into my mouth.

"I love you, too," I mumbled against his soft, warm lips. He stopped kissing me, pulled back and looked deep into my eyes.

"Do you really?" I nodded eagerly, smiling happily.

"So much," I repeated. He grinned, also. "I'll be right back, Love. I need to use the restroom," I pecked his lips once more, climbing off of his lap. I hadn't realized how late it had gotten- we both had woken up pretty late and now it was 10 pm. I hummed lightly, walking up to the bathroom. I did my business, washed my hands, and brushed my teeth- I didn't want gross breath! I skipped back down the stairs, looking over at my beautiful mate. Sometimes I found it hard to believe he was only twenty- he seemed so much older sometimes. I walked back over to him, jumping onto the couch and snuggling into his arms. He smiled down at me, leaning down and leaving a lingering kiss to my lips. 

He hauled me into his lap, nuzzling his face into my hair. I loved it when he did that, actually. Peppering kisses to my neck, he told me how much he loved me.

I felt myself start to get drowsy, my eyelids fluttering closed.

"I love you so much, Asher," I murmured, cuddling into his intoxicating hold. "So much.."

                                                          *Asher's POV*

I smiled, watching as my baby fell asleep. It was getting a bit late, so I decided to put her to bed and finish my pack work. Holding her tight, I carried her small body up the stairs, gently placing her on the bed and pulling the comforter over her. Kissing  her forehead, I jogged down the stairs, checking the time on my way.

11:54 pm.

Shrugging, I continued to my office. I honestly loved my house- it was around twenty minutes away from the pack house, and I loved it- especially now that my mate lived here with me. All of the floors in the house (Except from the kitchen and bathrooms) were dark wood, the walls dark colours that I loved. I passed by the kitchen, the shiny black tiles looking marvelous. I admit- I liked to cook. But the only one who knew that was Astrid, of course. The kitchen walls were a deep shade of blue, and the cabinets were  white-washed, while I had matching black tiled countertops. All of my appliances were stainless steel, also. Honestly, it was a pretty sexy kitchen, if you ask me. 

I made my way into my office, sitting down at my dark oak desk and started going over plans. I was in there for around twenty minutes before I heard a blood curdling scream coming from upstairs. I shot up from my desk, my wolf howling in anger. We could feel the waves of pain and fear, along with confusion, radiating off of our mate. My wolf was angry with me for not letting him take control, but I told him that I needed to see the problem first.

Let me handle this first, Caspian. We don't need to scare her any more. He growled at me, obviously not happy about it, but agreed. I was up in our room in seconds, only to see her on my bed, clutching her head in her hands.

She cried out once more, her body shaking. I raced over, scooping her into my arms, about to ask her what the problem was, but she calmed completely. Her fear and pain was gone in seconds, replaced with  completion and love. 

Frowning, I pulled her closer, still confused as to what happened when it came rushing at me like a ton of bricks. The Heat. Shit, it was technically tomorrow, and that's why she had been feeling so much pain. 

I cooed soft words into her ear, feeling her body relax completely. 

"It's okay, Kitten. I'm right here. Nothing is going to happen, I'm right here. I love you, baby. It's okay now. Shh," She pressed small kisses to my bare chest, cuddling against my body.

"I love you so much, it's crazy." She whispered, continuing to pepper kisses to my chest. 

I groaned, watching her and already knowing what was about to happen. "Kitten, are you sure you want this?" I asked huskily, trying to keep my wolf's instincts at bay. 

"Yes," She whispered, pressing a long kiss to the base of my throat.

"Baby, if we go any further, I won't be able to stop. I need to know this is what you want," I choked, my voice strained.

"Asher, I love you with all that I have. You are my everything, my savior, my one and only. I'm positive about this." That was all it took before I threw her onto my plush black bed and climbed on top of her, pressing my lips against her's. My hands roamed her body, finding the hem of her (my) shirt and gently pulling it over her head. I leaned down, gently peppering kisses to her breasts,before pulling the boxers down her long legs. I stroked her gently, kissing every bit of newly uncovered skin. After I'd kissed and nipped all of her, I pulled back, stood, and walked over to my drawer.

My wolf was yearning to fuck her into next week, but I denied it. It was her first time- I had to be gentle.

As I rocked into her gently, I bent down and placed my lips onto her neck. She whimpered, tightening her legs around my waist. My canines came out, and I bit into her neck. 

She gasped, arching her back as I marked her. After a while, I pulled my teeth out, licking the wound and kissing my mark. I pulled back and looked at it proudly, grinning. We had both climaxed while I had marked her, and I gently pulled out, flopping down next to her. Pulling her into my arms, I kissed her softly.

She looked up at me, smiling sleepily.

"I love you so much.."

"I love you too, Kitten." I murmured. "Go to sleep, baby."

That night was the best night's sleep I've ever gotten.
