I don’t like feeling weak, I hate that Echo is silent, but I’m loving every minute of being inside Quirin’s mind. His mind is just like he is, rough and rugged on the outside, but soft and gentle underneath, or at least it is towards me. And I like that a lot too. Now that I’m in his head, I can feel the difference in how he feels about me and how he feels about others, even our pack members. He loves them, in his Quirin way, but his love for me is all–encompassing.

‘I like having you in my mind. I didn’t think I would, but it’s like walking through a meadow on a sunny day. It feels like the birds are singing, the bees are buzzing and butterflies are fluttering around, he says in the mind link.

I smile up at my mate. My mate who apparently makes Alpha quake in their shoes, but tells me my mind feels like something out of a Disney movie.

‘If you tell anyone, I’ll deny it,‘ he grumbles.

‘Your secret is safe with me, my love,‘ I say, watching his sexy Quirin smile spread across his face. He’d been focusing on carrying me out to the waiting room, but his gaze turns to me.

‘You think I’m sexy?‘

‘Is that really a question?‘

‘Yeah, I guess it is.‘

‘You’re the sexiest man I’ve ever met in my life. All that dark, broodiness that becomes raging passion when we’re together is so hot I can barely wait to have you inside me again,’ I tell him honestly.

He stops walking, leaning forward to take my mouth in a passionate kiss.

‘I can’t wait to be inside your body and your mind at the same time. As great as it always feels to be inside you, I bet it will feel even better, and I’m not even sure how that will be possible.‘

I moan softly as he continues to kiss me. ‘I can’t wait either.’

When he finally pulls back, he smiles at me. “Let’s get you healthy first. We both know I lose control when I’m with you and I won’t risk hurting you or our pup,” he says out loud but quietly.

“Does the pack know?”

“Not yet. I wanted you to be with me when we tell them. I’m going to make sure they know that I will be even more protective of you now,” he says.

“Does that mean that you’re not going to let me out of your sight?” I ask, pressing my face against his throat.

“When you’re not in my sight, you’ll be with Lane or another guard. I realized that one isn’t enough. You need at least two, preferably three. So you need to think about who you want on guard duty. And you should know that Lane feels as guilty as I do that Jasper got to you.”
