I am sorry if there are many mistakes I just wanted to upload this because you had all been waiting for so long.

Tony’s POV

I had fallen asleep sitting in the chair with my head resting on the bed by Dawn's arm.

I woke up sore. I stretched feeling the pull of my muscles and the hearing the pop of my joints. "That is not a good way to fall asleep," I mumbled to myself. 

Then I stop moving because in the deafening silence that one moment seemed to bounce off my bedroom walls. It was terrifying.

I sighed and looked to Dawn.

I was surprised to see that some of the shallower bruises were already fading.

I smiled and leaned in, pressing my lips to her forehead. I stood straight and walked to the bathroom to get her some water. I set the glass on the bed side table and sat down again.

At that point the door opened behind me.

"Anthony . . ."

"No," I growled calmly.

"But . . ."

"No! I am here looking after my mate," I growled turning and standing up to f ace Lupa. "Like I was supposed to be last night. I didn't because you were there. You distracted me from my focus on her and because of that she could have died last night."

"Could have but didn't," she smiled

"Thank the goddess for that, you little bitch, because if she had you would of too," I snapped harshly.

"Don't threaten me like that!" She snapped back. "If this is proof of anything it is proof that she is human and weak. Not fit for being the mate of a true Alpha. If anyone is going to kill her it will be you!" She growled annoyed and then turned and stomped out slamming the door behind her.

Instantly I turned to Dawn, but nothing she didn't even move.

I sighed and moved back to sit in the chair and rest my head against Dawn’s hand like a lost puppy. I played with her figures and thought for a little while.

“I love you,” I whispered. “Did I not say it enough? Did you not realize what you meant to me? Why did this happen? I don’t understand. You are my everything. You are my life,” I sat up at looked at her sleeping face. Yes, sleeping, nothing in the world was wrong with her. She was just sleeping. “I don’t know how I would go on if I lost you now. I know it is all my fault. There is no getting around that fact. If I had told you sooner. If I had taken care of Ian sooner. Four little worlds earlier and we wouldn’t be here right now. And so simple now, it seems for me to say, but when your beautiful eyes were staring into mine I got scared. I couldn’t stand your rejection, but truth is I would live with a thousand of your rejections before I would live one day without you. I guess it doesn’t matter now. You can’t reply anyways,” I looked down at her hand still in mine and sighed. “Dawn, You are my mate.”
