He hates being unsure.
Her sounds echo throughout the small house, cries of pain and terror that make his heart ache.
Get her to her nest.
The smell of slick permeates the front room, and he returns to find her body soaked in sweat and a dark stain running down her jeans.
Fuck.
“What’s happening to me?” she whispers, her dark eyes swollen with tears. “What’s happening to me—”
Normally, the smell of her fear is delicious, and he enjoys taunting her. But she looks so lost and desperate that all he can focus on is keeping her safe.
“Your Heat, baby,” he whispers, and she trembles as he comes closer.
“I—I don’t—I can’t—”
“We have to get you into a nest,” he murmurs as he kneels down on the ground, his face inches from hers. “It will help. Ipromiseyou Audrey, it will help.”
She reaches out and grips his hair, tangling her fingers in his messy locks, and he fights a groan of pleasure as she pulls him closer to her.
“Purr for me,” she demands, pushing his face into her chest. He inhales her sweet scent, drowning in her essence, and his inner Alpha awakens.
The rumbling of his chest makes her sigh, and her fingers drag lightly through his hair as her body relaxes.
“Thank you, Julian,” she whispers.
Anything for you,he wants to say, but that’s not true.
After this, he’ll never let her leave.
When her breathing stills and her fingers stop carding through his hair, he sits back up and looks down at her.
Her lips are parted, and her dark eyes are glassy with gold specks shining through the irises.
She smells of vanilla, blossoms, and spun sugar, and when she looks at him like this, she’s never been more beautiful.
“We need to get you to your nest, baby,” he says gently. “The easiest way would be for me to carry you.”
She holds his gaze, and he can tell she’s debating internally.
Then she nods, granting him permission. He easily lifts her up, carrying her bridal style to the bedroom and doing his best to ignore the wetness that stains all the way down her thighs.
CHAPTER 15
AUDREY
She’s in his arms,and he’s holding her to his chest as he carries her to the bedroom.
She doesn’t understand how he can be so gentle yet deadly at the same time.
Her body aches, and the one place she needs to be touched goes ignored.
He may have helped her prepare for this, but that doesn’t mean she wants him helping herthroughher Heat.
Until she sees what he’s done for her.
It must be a primal response, because as soon as they approach the dark wood bedframe and plush mattress, all she wants to do is have him join her in it.
