Stunned, Damon's jaw dropped. What she said was just so wrong. He couldn't even imagine using his mate for sex. He wanted her love, her trust, her future. Eventually he would like to have her body as well, but that was definitely not the reason he was trying to get close to the beautiful woman that was now weeping and trying to get away from him.

"Lily." Damon said softly, she looked up at him with a look of betrayal. "I do not just want you for sex, I want you because you are beautiful and you are my mate." It felt so good for him to say that to her.

"Your?" Lily questioned, she had no clue what that meant, nor did she have a clue if he was just trying to say things to get her to have sex with him.

Damon sighed, he just decided that he would tell it all to her, even though he knew that she would have no clue what she was saying. It would feel good for him to tell her.

"I'm a werewolf, I turn into a giant wolf and the Moon Goddess gives everyone mates. You are my mate. But funnily enough, you got mated to the Alpha King. Which is me of course. And I'm all big and scary unless it comes to you. Then I'm a big teddy bear. The mate's job is to make the other one as happy as they can." Damon had sort of gone on a bit of a rambling session as he got talking. It was nice to just lay it all out like that.

Lily just stared at him blankly. "What?"

Damon just chuckled. "Thought so." He smiled at his cute little mate. "In time you will understand, but your heart is not ready for that quite yet."

Lily was still terribly confused. "I don't understand." She managed to mumble out.

Damon looked into her eyes lovingly. "Kätzchen, I love you. You might not understand that, or what love is. But I love you. With every since part if my being. It tears me apart to know what men have done to you. It kills me to know that men have touched what is mine." He growled out the last few words. "Kätzchen, I will spend my entire life proving to you that you can trust me. I will show you what love is, Kitten. But for now, I need you to trust that I want all of you, and not just for sex. Are we clear?" He looked deeply into her eyes as he asked this.

Stunned, Lily just nodded. She had understood a lot of what he had said, and she of course did not know the full meaning of love, but something inside her clicked. She took a blind leap and decided that she would trust him. "I will give you a..." she paused, looking for the word.

"Chance?" Damon filled in for her. He smiled at her learning and trying.

"Yes."

Damon held out his hand. "Kätzchen, you need to eat, you are far too skinny and you need to get some meat on your bones."

Hesitantly, Lily put her hand in his and gasped softly at the tingles. They were so... pleasant. His hand was so much bigger than hers, it seemed to engulf it. For some reason, though, the thought of him being so much bigger than her didn't frighten her as much anymore. To her, it seemed as if he really was trying to protect her.

Damon lead Lily down the stairs and into the kitchen. When they got there, Damon gently picked her up and sat her on the counter, frowning internally at how light she really was. He was going to have to get her to put on some weight if he didn't want her to wither away right before his eyes.

"What would you like to eat?" He asked her softly?

Lily just shrugged. She wasn't the most informed when it came to foods. She was only familiar with water, beans, and moldy bread.

Damon frowned, but then smiled gently at her. "It's fine, I'll just surprise you." After that, Damon got right to cooking.

Lily couldn't help but watch how he moved. It was so smooth and flawless. She watched as his muscles rippled as he moved and she began to feel this warm fuzzy feeling in her stomach. It was so strange. However, she wasn't sure that she didn't like it.

Damon soon picked up on his mate's predicament and his muscles tensed,  but he didn't do anything. He had to reign his wolf in and make sure that he did not hurt his mate or scare her away. But her arousal was intoxicating and he was sure that it was her first time feeling it by the look on her face. Nevertheless, Damon kept his head down and focused on making the fettuccini that he was currently working on.

"D-damon?" Lily stuttered out hesitantly.

Damon turned to her to find her looking at her hands. "Yes, Kätzchen?"

"Um... what is... what am I feeling in my stomach? It feels strange and I don't know what's wrong." Lily looked into his eyes for help.

Damon had to take a deep breath. "That, Kätzchen, is you being aroused. It means that your body wants something, in a sexual way. In this case, I believe that it is me that your body wants. But do not worry, little one, I will not have sex with you until I am sure that you are ready. Whether our bodies want to or not." He smiled at her, but he couldn't help but wince at his painful bulge down below.

"My body wants you? Sexually? But why?" Lily continued to ask questions as Damon went back to making her food.

"Because, you find me attractive, and it is human nature to have sex. Therefore, when your body deems that someone could be a potential mate, it will make you aroused, which makes you wet and that will be easier for you to have sex." He explained.

"Oh." Was all Lily said.

The two were quiet for the rest of the time that it took for Damon to cook the food. And when he handed the plate to Lily, her face lit up.

"It smells so good!" She inhaled deeply.

"It's fettuccini with Alfredo sauce." Damon smiled.

Lily took a bite and almost put it in her mouth before Damon stopped her and told her to blow on it or she would burn her mouth. She nodded in understanding.

When the first bite hit her mouth, she couldn't help but moan. This was the best food she had ever tasted. It didn't take her long to clear off half the plate, but after that, she could eat no more.

Damon frowned at how little that she had eaten, but he was glad she had eaten nevertheless.

Damon could tell that Lily was very sleepy and beginning to become drowsy. So he lifted her up into his arms and carried her to her room where he tucked her in and kissed her forehead. "Goodnight, little one, I love you."
