Say the words.
—O
PS: Is this our thing? Do we call each other by our initials now?
I’m pretty sure I’m having a panic attack.
~D
Stardust,
Perhaps you’re having an attack of nerves. I couldn’t read your last missive.
Are your hands shaking?
Take a few deep breaths and calm down. Then accept the bond, and I will soothe you.
Just say the words.
“I, Danika Starbourne, accept you, Orion Thalos, as my fated mate.”
—O
A bit of advice, do not tell a grown woman to calm down.
My last boyfriend made a habit of that.
I dumped him.
I’m text messaging with an alien through a mailbox.
Of course I’m freaking out.
~D
Stardust,
Still not an alien. I’ve read human lore and believe my people would be considered faekind.
Are we speaking of Matt again? Is he near you? Is that why you keep bringing him up? Understand that I will snatch the breath from his lungs if he dares come near what is mine again.
Now accept the bond and come to me.
—O
Orion,
I think I’m going to pass out. With all the staying up at night thinking I was being stalked and now the whole portal thing, my brain is fried. I’m going to go and lie down.
~D
Stardust, wait. You keep forgetting about the most important thing. The bond. You must accept the bond.
—O
Stardust?
Danika?
