I only got one comment on my last chapter :(

Asher's pov.

I watched my mates chest go up and down. I could tell some of her strength has already come back and she's healed a ton for it just being about two hours since I mated with her.

I called the pack doctor shortly after addy went to sleep. I kinda forgot that it was two in the morning but she said it was okay. I asked why we had such a sense to mate with the events that happened earlier in the night. Also why she didn't get hurt further with the movement.

The pack doctor, who I learned was named Carly, told me it's normal for alphas and their mates to have a strong urge to pleasure each other in one of their times of need. The contact between the mates heals the one injured. Also it helps their wolves calm themselves to make sure that their partner is okay.

Addison moved closer to me as her head now leaned on my arm while she hugged my waist. I could tell she was a little uncomfortable because of her ribs in the position so I sat up and turned her body so her face wasn't scrunched up in displeasure.

I moved a piece of Addison's hair out of her face and lightly put my arm over her lower stomach. I rested my head in her neck hoping to calm me and my wolf down, I had so many questions that I couldn't answer right now that we're making my head blow up.

Why couldn't I sense trouble sooner? I should've been able to feel something even though Addison's wall was up. Is our mate bond not strong enough? Where was Addison's royal guards? Weren't they supposed to appear if a royal is in danger?

What did addy's grandmother mean when she said I was going to shift to better protect Addison? Is that why our mate bond isn't as strong as it's supposed to be? How could I have-

"Ash" Addison's voice broke my thoughts. It was musked over with sleep and it was doing stuff to me, oh god stop Asher calm down. I hadn't realized she woke up I was too deep in my thoughts and unanswered questions.

"Yes baby?"

"Are you okay" her question caught me off guard.

"Yes why wouldn't I be? Are you okay? How are you feeling?" I was confused why would I not be okay?

"Your mind was over flowing with so many thoughts I couldn't keep track and I feel so much better thanks to you." The last part she said I could tell she was smiling alittle.

    "I'm okay go back to bed we are going to leave early in the morning if you are feeling better." She nodded and twisted to lay in a different position.

       The following morning I woke up to see it was already nine o'clock. I usually wake up somewhat early to get going with my daily border run and the pack paperwork.

     I slowly slid off of Addison trying my best to not wake her up. I used the restroom and brushed my teeth etc.

Coming out of the bathroom sunlight was streaming in from the slightly open curtains. Addison stirred and then slowly opened her eyes to see me standing above the bed looking down at her.

I probably look so creep just watching her, not saying anything as she wakes up.
--------
Addison's pov.

My eyes opened as I awoke from my peaceful no nightmare sleep to see my mate looking down at me from above the bed.

My cheeks heated up as he didn't say anything but he just watched me. I noticed he had a pair of shorts on that hung dangerously low on his hips.
