Kyson POV

The guilt I felt for snapping at her was horrendous. I hated myself for it; the way she shrank back made it all the more worse. I couldn’t erase the fear on her face at my outburst from my mind. My instincts were all over the place, the anniversary of my sister’s d***h. Then Ivy’s birthday was obviously looming, and her attitude. As well as fighting my own instincts was becoming too much. Although I knew it wasn’t her fault, she was temperamental; I was at the best of times. She doesn’t understand what is happening, whereas I do, since I have shifted and seen many werewolves shift over the decades.

The closer she gets, the more animalistic she will become before finally shifting. With me being so close, it only enhances those instincts and makes her urges so much more intense, as her body and brain try to process that I am her mate.

Running my hand down her spine, she shivered where she slept on my chest. Ivy whined and growled earlier, complaining that I kept putting her to sleep, but the more she slept, the better her transition when she shifts. Our bond was strong, and I could tell it was almost fully forged. I had no doubt when she shifted that she would recognize me as her mate instantly.

It was the knock at my door that pulled me from my thoughts. I enjoyed the quiet, and reveled in the feel of her body pressed against mine, so the knock annoyed me. The door cracks open, and Damian walks in before sitting down in the armchair.

“Turn away for a second,” I tell him, and he turns his gaze to my bookshelf. I rolled Ivy onto her back before covering her naked body with the blanket, tucking it under her chin. She whimpered, and l jammed my pillow next to her face. And watched as she buried her nose in it while Damian chuckled.

“I see the bond has formed,”

“Yes,” I tell him, walking over to him. Damian looked at my arms and chest that are covered in her bite marks. She even bit me three times while she was asleep.

“Definitely almost forged,” he laughed, as I sat down across from him.

“Why the drop-in? It’s nearly 1 am,”” I tell him.
