But Zane placed his hand over my mouth, making me stop before our lips could touch.
I stared at him, feeling slightly betrayed.
I had wanted it so bad.
“I can’t, Lia. Not right now.”
“Why?” I whispered, hating the sound of my voice.
“I can’t guarantee your safety if I’m distracted tonight. I have to take care of you, not daydream about all the things I want to do to you.”
I took his hand and lowered it from my lips. “What do you want to do to me?” The words left my mouth before I could stop myself.
Zane’s eyes darkened, and he sucked in a breath, turning away from me. “Don’t,” he warned.
I swallowed. “I wanna know,” I pushed.
A low growl escaped his mouth, sending a shiver through me.
“Lia, you cannot escape me tonight. Please, don’t do this. You’ll make me do something I will regret,” he gritted out.
“Alright,” I whispered, “I’m sorry.”
“Leave, please. Go out. I will clean up here.”
Without any arguments, I stood up and left the washroom, closing the door behind me. I leaned against it then, taking in a deep breath, my heart pounding. I glanced up at the ceiling, my eyes wide.
“What was I doing?” I muttered to myself, before making my way to my closet. I picked out my pajamas and quickly put them on, thankfully before he stepped out.
“Look at you,” he said with a smile, “all ready for bed.”
“Yeah,” I said. “Thank you, Zane. For staying to protect me.”
“There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you, Lia Snow.”
I blushed, lowering my gaze.
“By the way,” he said, “you look pretty without your glasses.”
I glanced at him. “What?”
“Your glasses.”
My mouth fell open. “Wait, I was wearing contact lenses,” I whispered. “I can’t feel them anymore. They must have slipped up my eyes during all that!” I rushed to the mirror, my eyes wide. “You’re not even supposed to sleep with lenses on and I was unconscious for so long.”
“They’re not, I removed them,” Zane said.
I paused. “You what?”
“I removed them when you were unconscious. Before we even got to the pack house. I removed them in the car.”
“How did you know to do that?”
“You weren’t wearing your glasses, so it was obvious. I know they can be dangerous if you sleep with them. So I removed. them.”
My heart melted once more.
“Zane, you’re the most thoughtful man I’ve ever met,” I said honestly. “How do you do this? How do you take care of everything?”
“Not everything,” he smiled, “just you, love. It might sound desperate, but, my life kind of revolves around you.”
I smiled. “It does?”
“Yeah.”
“Isn’t that bad and codependent?”
He chuckled. “Maybe for humans it is. They’re a bunch of wussies. Afraid to love their partners to much.”
I grinned. “I guess it’s different for werewolves.”
“We exist to make our mates smile, Lia. We don’t believe in personal lives.”
I laughed. “That’s… cute.”
“I know, right?”
I nodded. “I should sleep now,” I said, taking a deep breath. My heart was so full. “Good night.”
I climbed into bed, and Zane approached at once, to tuck me in. I raised my brows at him. “I am not a little girl.”
“You don’t have to argue with everything.”
I smiled in defeat, and let him cover me with the blanket. Zane sat down on the edge of the bed, staring down at me. “Good night, love. I hope you will rest assured that you and your parents are safe. I will not let anyone or anything harm you again. I promise.” He leaned in and pressed a kiss to my forehead.
“I know,” I replied, smiling at him. “Thank you.”
“Shh. Stop thanking me now. Go to sleep.” He gently covered my eyes with his hand, making me close them. Then he stood up and put out the lights, before taking a seat on the couch.
I discreetly opened one eye to look at him.
“I can see in the dark, Lia. Eyes closed.”
I quickly shut it, like a child caught awake.
Zane chuckled. “Cutie.”
This time, I didn’t open my eyes again, and the exhaustion from the day finally started to weigh in. Before I knew it, I had drifted off into a deep sleep.
-ZANE’S POV-
Lia’s bedroom was already my favourite place in the world-every inch of it reeking with her scent, a mark of her existence.
And now, watching her sleep was becoming one of my most favourite things to do.
Of course, having to watch her from afar couldn’t be compared to the other thing I had experienced today-pressing my lips against hers and claiming every inch of her mouth as mine-but it definitely ranked second. I hadn’t known that hearing the rhythmic beats of someone’s heart, and simply watching their chest rise and fall under a thick blanket could bring you so much peace.
But I guess that was just how mates worked.
After all, I’d almost lost her tonight.
I stood up from the couch once I was sure she was asleep and carefully approached the bed. She was sleeping peacefully, without a care in the world. That is exactly how I always wanted to keep her. Completely relaxed and free of worry. But I didn’t know if she’d understand the price of it. If she’d be able to understand how much violence it took to ensure her security.
Lia was concerned about the wolf that attacked and almost killed her. She was even slightly upset about the wolf’s death.
I didn’t know how she would react once she found out that I wasn’t planning on sending the rest of them back where they came from. I was going to bury them six feet deep. Their whole organisation had dared to start a war with us. With me. They had attacked my mate,
-LIA’S POV-
I woke up to find my bed empty.
Frowning, I checked the time in my phone, and realised it was already afternoon.
Then I realised I had a phone, even though mine had broken last night. How did it get here?
Before I could start scrolling through it, it started to ring-Zane’s name flashing on the screen. There were two kiss emojis in front of it. I smiled and rolled my eyes, answering it.
“Good morning, Lia. How are you feeling?” he asked.
“Hi,” I said. “I’m better. When did you leave?”
“Why? Do you miss the warmth of my body? You were snuggling closer to me all night.”
“Yeah, right,” I laughed. “Thanks for fixing my phone, by the way.”
“Mhm. I take it you found your gift inside it.”
I raised an eyebrow. “What gift?”
“So you haven’t checked your gallery yet?”
I narrowed my eyes. “Zane, if I find pictures of your manhood in there, I swear-‘
“Goddess, Lia, no. What kind of a person do you think I am?”
“Just playing safe,” I replied. I put the phone on speaker and opened my gallery, a laugh leaving my lips immediately. “Zane Adams, you’re such a jerk.”
