Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future

Chapter 220

Chapter 88

Kas's POV

I watch Bronx for a minute as he looks at himself in disbelief in the mirror. Then I quietly slip away to give him time to himself so he can process his new appearance. I sit on the upholstered bench in our closet room and take a few deep breaths. In the moment, creating a new eye for Bronx seemed like nothing. Our connection was stronger than ever and it helped me make his healing come to fruition, but now I feel completely spent, like the tank is empty. I can't let him know how much it drained me or he may want me to stay in the apartment instead of going downstairs for dinner.

I take a deep breath and look around at my clothing options. Lex tries to convince me to wear a low cut dress. She always wants me to wear a low cut dress. Much to her disappointment, I decide on a dark gray sweater dress and black leggings with ballet flats.

Bronx comes into the closet when I'm sitting on the bench to put my shoes on. I smile at the way his confidence seems to have skyrocketed in the last ten minutes. I have always thought he was the most handsome werewolf on the planet, but now, with both crisp green eyes admiring me, I feel myself swoon a little more than usual.

"Let's not go downstairs," Lex purrs in my ear, "Let's stay up here with our mate."

"While I love the sound of it, Lex, we have responsibilities to the pack tonight."

"Such a party pooper," she huffs and goes to lie down in the back of my mind.

Bronx sits on the bench next to me and pulls me onto his lap. I allow my weight to sag into his chest, letting our mate bond soothe and recharge me.

'Thank you, Kas," he murmurs into my ear, "I don’t even know how to begin to show you how much what you just did means to me."

I smile and wrap my arms around his waist, "Just promise you’ll always love me. That's all I need from you, Bronx. I know things have been challenging lately. Knowing you're by my side has made it bearable."
