I never realized how strong the mate bond would be. I had been terrified about being claimed in public, but it had never occurred to me that the draw to my mate might overshadow that fear. I may never know, because in this pack, I don't have to worry about that. Here, I'm free to love my mate privately.

And we did. Jaime knew he couldn't mark me yet, and he asked me if I wanted to wait, but I didn't and I'm glad I made the decision I did.

After his shower, I'd asked him if he wanted a haircut. I wasn't sure if his s**y hair was a choice or a result of being a lone wolf for so long. He'd chosen a haircut, and he'd taken

advantage of the time to talk to me and run his hands up and down my sides. By the time I had finished cutting his hair into a more manageable curly mop, I was practically desperate for him.

Jaime is a kind and gentle lover and even though I expected my first time to be painful, and it was, he took his time, kissing me through the pain and then showing me the pleasure that comes from being with your mate. According to Jaime, our bond and this feeling between us will only intensify once I turn 18.

'He's right,' Sable told me, purring at our mate's touch. We made love several times, wanting to stay connected, holding each other in between and talking about everything. I learned about his life, even more than what I'd learned from Beth, and I told

him about mine. I talked to him about Alpha Hunter and Luna Sophie, telling him that they really are good people who want to help others.

He'd listened to me go on and on about this pack, my role in the war, how Luna Sophie and Beta Kinsley had fought so others could be in the safe rooms, how Brooklyn is thriving here in our pack, even after finding her fated mate.

He was quiet, listening to me.

"That's so different than what I grew up with," he'd finally said.

"Me too. But it's real. Once you're here for a couple of days, you'll see it, not just with Alpha and Luna, or our Betas, but also, it's that way with everyone in the pack. Everyone here touches, kisses, and loves on their mates and pups. It's really beautiful Jaime. I hope....I hope that you'll give it a chance," I'd said quietly, worried that he'd decide that he'd rather be a lone wolf than remain here.

He'd kissed the side of my head, his fingers stroking through my hair. "What I want is in this pack. What I want, is you. I have no intention of leaving here without you and if you're happy here, then I'm willing to give it a chance. You're my mate and I trust you."

We'd made love again, this time with me initiating because of how happy his words had made me. We'd finally fallen asleep after that and I'd woken in his arms, excited to take him to warrior training. "Your sister said your father was the Lead Warrior of your pack and you were following in his footsteps," I tell him.
