"Let's go back. I think Finn will be fine," Orion whispered, making sure his magic continued to cloak our presence and voices. I nodded in agreement, looking one last time at Finn who was on his knees still in his father's arms as he clung to him. His mother was rubbing his back, and Bloom was whispering soothing words to him, saying how proud they all were of him.

This was his chance to be with his family, and I didn't see the need for us to be there any longer.

"Yes. Let's go back to our room," I confirmed.

To see Finn’s happiness was enough to make me want to save those shifters who were endangered, just like how Mom helped them gain their salvation thanks to Alpha Pure.

Not Scary But Addicting

"I'm trying to read, Orion," I murmured.

"Hmm?" he mumbled.

"I can't read when you're kissing me like that. Haven't you left enough hickeys on my neck tonight?" I pointed out.

His answer was yet another sizzling kiss that made my over-sensitive body hum in delight. I bit my lip to stop the moan that almost escaped.

"No."

"What are the chances you made a bet with Finn about how many love bites you could leave on me?" I grumbled.

Orion was quiet, which only answered my question.

"I have no words for you two."

Orion smiled against the flesh of my right shoulder but didn't complain, giving me another kiss before he rested his head on my shoulder."I'm tired, Blessed Love."

"Are you?" I paused at the part I was attempting to read for the seventh time to turn my head slightly towards him.

He lifted his head and we shared a simple kiss before he laid it back down. "Yeah."

"Why don't we sleep? It's two in the morning," I suggested.

"Finn might come back. I want him to at least know we're happy for him," Orion revealed.

I smirked at his words, the action already hurting my cheeks from the amount of smiling I'd done today because I was so happy with the result of our swift plan.

I closed the book, remembering the page I was on before I placed it to the side of me. I turned over to look at Orion's sleepy expression.“I’m happy you two have become so close,” I admitted.

"He might sometimes act like he’s not serious and jokes a lot within our group, but he’s genuinely an approachable person who is willing to carry your burden for you. I think that’s why I was able to go to him about Odion. I wanted to tell you too, but we got caught up with everything that was happening. I didn’t think it would be important." Orion’s voice was soft as he spoke, tiredness evident in his tone.

"It’s okay. I want you to tell me when you were ready. I know it’s not a topic you want to discuss. Personally, I wouldn’t either."

"You’re so understanding, Cutie Pie," he mumbled.

I gave him a kiss on the cheek and hugged him, both of us relaxing in the bed. “I like how you alternate nicknames all the time. As for being understanding, I try.”

“Hmm. Can I take a nap?”

“Yes, you can.”

“You’ll wake me up when Finn comes back? That’s if you’re awake.”

“Yes. I’ll wake you up.”

“Okay,” he whispered and closed his eyes.

Within a minute he was asleep. I rested my head on his chest, listening to the slow beat of his heart and the quiet inhales and exhales.
