Suddenly I woke up because I felt a bit cold.

It was dark in the room except from the light that was illuminated by the moon.

I checked the time in the clock on the table by the bed. It was 2:45.
Oh! I still have time to sleep more. But where is my blanket.

I looked around to find it on the floor. I must've dropped it in my sleep. It's an old habit of mine. I bent a little to pick it up as I am way too lazy to actually step down from the bed and grab it. That's when I noticed that Caleb was sleeping on the couch.

Well, that's good. At least he respects me enough to not force me into anything.

He is not that bad actually. And sometimes I feel like he really do care for me.
Samuel never cared enough to ask me about how my day was or my health. But he does that on a daily basis. He stood up to the Alpha for me and that really means a lot. A smile made it's way up my face.
He is good looking too. But when he is angry, he is really scary. The way he grabs my shoulder and slams my back into the wall it just sends a shiver down my spine.

I still have marks on my wrist from the kitchen incident today. It made me feel sad. A part of me wanted to go home but some twisted part inside me wanted him.

Fuck... What the fuck did I just thought?
Me.. Wanting him...
I looked at him as those thoughts keep on going in my mind.

He move a bit and that's when I realized that I've been staring at him for way too long.
I was about to drift back to sleep when i noticed that he curled up into a ball.

What is he doing? I got up and saw that he has no blanket.
This idiot is going to catch cold. It's freezing tonight and here he is sleeping without blanket.

But soon I realized that maybe it was late when he came back and there was only one blanket so he....

So you see, this is what I am talking about. If it was any other guy he would've either woken me up or would've taken the liberty to sleep next to me but this guy is something else.

I felt a bit bad. Here I am sleeping comfortably on the bed with a blanket while he is suffering like this. So I did what felt right.

I took the blanket and covered him up properly. Then I lied next to him and helped myself with the blanket as well. I hesitated at first and felt a bit awkward as I was really close to him.

And even thought I did not want to admit it but I felt better on the couch with him right next to me.

Caleb's POV

I had so much work today. It was exhausting.

I was so engrossed in work that I lost the track of time. When I got back it was quite late and I was a bit worried. I left Lilly in there with Jeremiah guarding but what if that mutt fall asleep?

If something went wrong I would've felt her pain but since I have not marked her yet, I can't feel anything from her. Moreover she is a human so I doubt I would feel her pain even after marking her. It is not impossible but rather rare.

As I was getting close to my room, various thoughts made their way into my mind and now I was sure that it was a bad idea to leave her like that. But all my stress got away as soon as I saw Jeremiah still standing outside wide awake.

I thanked him and let him go. I entered the room and saw that she was already asleep. I was about to get on the bed and sleep next to her when I remembered that yesterday she started crying when she woke up next to me.

I am not sure that she was crying because I held her in my arms like that. I mean I did not intend to do that it just happened in my sleep but if that was the reason, then I don't want it to happen again. So I decided to give her enough space until she was comfortable with me.

I went straight to the couch and lay down. She had blanket wrapped all around her. I checked the temperature on my phone. It is unusually low today but since I am a werewolf, low temperature have slightly less effect on me but even I am feeling a bit cold today. But there is only one blanket in room and it's to late to go and get one so I slept without a blanket.


I was mildly asleep when I felt a presence behind me. At first I got alert but as soon as my mate's soothing scent hit my nostrils I relaxed. That's when I noticed that she was here,  right next to me.

She covered me up in blanket and lied right next to me. My heartbeat quickly accelerated as I felt right next to me.
Her presence is so comforting.

"Mate cares about us", Drew purred happily.

Even I was too happy. And it felt so good and warm. I just wanted to cuddle and snuggle her up in my arms but I don't want to make her feel uncomfortable again so I kept my hands to myself even though it was very hard to do so with her lying next to me.

I don't know when I drifted off deep into my slumber but when I woke up, I woke up to the most beautiful sight.

My mate right next to me with her arms  on my chest and her lips mere inches away from mine.

It took a lot of control to not kiss her. I wanted to claim her there and then. She looked so beautiful ... so angelic. I wanted to embrace her.

Maybe she won't mind. I was losing control I wanted to kiss her. So I decided against my better judgment and wrapped my arms around her. Her waist just fits perfectly in my embrace and it sends breath taking sparks throughout my arms.

When she felt my arms around her she moved a bit and I thought that she is going to wake up. But instead she snuggled closer to me and now her lips were almost on mine. My heartbeat started rising again. And I could feel something harden in my trousers.

"Mark her... mark her", Drew was wagging his tail happily.

No...no.... Control Caleb... control..

Damn, she is so close to me.. all I could see was her lips.

Her luscious, red lips. It was so tempting. And I couldn't resist anymore. I gave in. I moved my head a bit and quickly pecked her lips and then held her in my arms.

So good... Even though it was just a small peck , I felt so good I am so happy. Everything's perfect . This is  perfect.

This is where she belongs, right next to me in my arms. I wish it could've been a proper kiss but I am sure soon that will happen too.

Right now I was content with her in my arms. Everything was going well. I was busy looking at her face when suddenly her eyes flickered and she woke up.

Fuck...

"Are we in trouble now???", Drew asked with a meeky grin and I looked down at my mate.

Oh fuck.....
