His expression was serious as he met my eyes. “There will never be anyone for me but you, Ebb. When a wolf chooses, it’s permanent. If yours rejects mine, you’ll find love again, but for me, you’re it.”
Holy shit.
No wonder he was so possessive of me, and didn’t want to leave my side.
“What if we fall out of love? Or change our minds?” I pressed.
“Werewolves don’t change their minds. Even if we fell out of love, we’d always be in each other’s lives to some extent. The wolves wouldn’t allow anything else. There are some mates who choose to be friends instead of lovers though, and roommates instead of spouses.”
Why anyone would choose that was beyond me.
But… Ford and I were permanent.
And I wanted to get used to that idea.
“You can sleep in your human form, if you want,” I told him. “But you’d have to wear your jeans.”
He flashed me a small grin. “My wolf’s itching to have the night with you, so I’ll give him this one. Tomorrow, I might take you up on that though.”
“Who says I’ll offer it tomorrow?” I shot back.
His grin widened. “I’ll convince you.”
Something told me he most definitely would.
I dida little more studying while we waited for one last meal to show up, and after we ate, Ford shifted forms. While it sounded painful, he didn’t yell or cry or anything.
His wolf was wagging his tail like mad when he finished shifting. He hurried over, and rubbed up against me. I managed to get away from him long enough to climb into bed, and then he was in the bed with me, rolling over the top of me. It made me laugh, but when he finally stopped, I had to pick hair out of my mouth.
That was pretty gross, but the warmth and soft fur made up for it when he snuggled up with me.
Maybe I didn’t have as big a problem with his wolf as I thought I did.
When morning came around, we quickly got dressed, eating yet another ordered meal before heading out to my classes. I felt bad Ford was spending so much money on me, but he assured me that I didn’t need to worry about his finances, and that he wanted to feed me.
And since he was the reason I was a constantly-starving werewolf, I let him.
He attended all of my classes with me again, and I was just as distracted as the day before. We touched throughout every class though, so I survived.
We fellinto a pattern over the next week. Food, classes, more food, more classes, more food, homework, more food, and then sleeping together while he was in wolf form. And it was nice, honestly. I felt bad that Ford was constantly washing and re-wearing the same clothes, but he swore he didn’t mind. We flirted, and teased, but didn’t do anything sexy even though we both clearly wanted to.
But then the ninth day came around…
And we walked into my dorm after my classes.
And found Reed draped across my bed.
Naked.
