He smiled, then laid his head back down. My arms resumed their normal position curled around his shoulders. I closed my eyes and appreciated the warmth of his breath as he inhaled and exhaled softly across my skin. This was the perfect moment - I wanted to take a mental snapshot of this and never forget. My mate’s scent, his gentle yet sassy voice, his soft skin… Everything about him was simplyperfect.

“Yes,love.”
“I’m glad we claimed each other,” he said. “You know, with the whole magical bitingthing.”
I kissed his hair. “Me too. I’m glad you agreedtoit.”
“I love you, Dante,” he said. “More than I ever thought I’d love an alpha inmylife.”
“I feel exactly the same way, Gabe,” I replied. “I love yousomuch.”
He nodded gently and pressed a small kiss to my skin. “I’m happy. And excited to spend the rest of my life with you and our children - however many they end upbeing.”
My heart twisted with affection and I laughed. “As much as I love you and Noah, let’s just try two kids fornow.Deal?”
“Deal.” Hegrinned.
