“A few hours.”
I frowned. “You could’ve woken me up to help if you were that uncomfortable.”
“You needed to rest.” He turned back to the wall and focused on it.
I reminded myself that one of the main issues we were having was because of our different cultures.
Hewantedto take care of me. It made him feel good.
So, I needed to get used to letting him do it.
“Thanks for letting me sleep.” I slipped out of bed and padded over to the fruit he’d picked for me.
His chest rumbled a bit. “It was my pleasure.”
I sat down at the table, which had definitely been cleaned. “Hopefully not as much pleasure as last night.”
He flashed me a wicked grin that made my heart stumble, as stupid as that sounded. “Not even close.”
I popped a berry into my mouth, fighting a grin of my own. “We haven’t talked about whether or not there will be a repeat of that.”
“I think you know where my opinions stand.” He turned back to the wall, focused on taking pieces apart. “It’s entirely your decision, and I will go along with whatever you decide.”
I made a noise of disagreement. “It affects us both. Ignoring the frenzy isn’t any fun for either of us, and we’re already glowing again. I want to hear what you think and feel.” The glow was so soft it was nearly nonexistent, but there was no denying it. I was pretty sure it would swell and brighten over time like it had before.
Ivaylo let out a long breath. “I think fighting the frenzy is worth the discomfort if it makes you more comfortable. If I were the only factor, you’d be spread wide on that bed right now, screaming in pleasure. I’m not, so I’m over here.”
My face flushed. “I’m not sure what I think. On one hand, I obviously want you. On the other, it would be smarter to resist so we don’t get lost in the lust before we get to know each other more.”
He made a noise of agreement.
A thought crossed my mind, and I froze. “Shit. How do werewolf couples get pregnant? Is it the normal way?”
“Is the normal way sex?” he asked me.
“Yes.”
“Then yes.”
“Shit.” I hissed the word, squeezing my eyes shut.
His gaze was curious. “Both shifters in a sealed mate bond must will it to happen while they make love, and both will feel a heavy tug on their magic when they do. If you were pregnant, you would know instantly.”
Oh.
Huh.
“Well, I guess that’s a relief.” I leaned back against my chair and ate another berry, though my heart was still beating a little fast. “Maybe we need some kind of sex rules. Like… we can have sex once every other day or something.”
He snorted. “That sounds ridiculous.”
“It kind of does,” I admitted, a reluctant grin spreading over my face.
“The easiest solution would be to hold off until the frenzy grows too annoying, sate the magic, then hold off again until the process repeats.”
“That sounds a little ridiculous too,” I teased.
He chuckled. “It does. The alternative is you fighting the urge to climb my cock while surrounded by my pack, as we experienced near the pack’s den.”
