take away your tears and put a smile back on your face, because your happiness is what I want. ”
“ If you are happy, our son will be happy as well. I can’t think of anything more important to me as a mate and father.” Balduen told her honestly. She and their child were the most important things in his life, and he would do anything he needed to do in order to keep them safe, happy and loved.
His words and the love and truth shining in his eyes made Dare feel like crying again. Here she was, a hormonal mess, and he was being so wonderful to her. She knew he was probably right; her hormones most likely were part of the problem. However, they both knew there was more to it than just that.
Dare understood what he meant though. She needed to think about their love and their child, trust in that, the rest would work itself out. And Balduen would be there, by her side, through every bit of it. She wasn’t alone and never would be again, because he wouldn’t allow that to happen. Putting her head on his shoulder, Dare breathed out a calming breath.
“I love you baby. Thank you for making me feel better.” Dare whispered against his neck, tickling his ear.
“I love you too. Should you get some rest? Are you tired? Hungry?” Balduen asked, hoping the latest events hadn’t tired her too quickly.
Dare chuckled softly at Balduen’s question and shook her head. He probably hadn’t meant hungry the way she was interpreting it. But in her own defense, she was hormonal, and they hadn’t had any time to be together. At least, she was trying to convince herself that was why she was feeling unbelievably aroused right now.
“You are lying to me. What is wrong?” Balduen asked, fear running through him that something more was wrong with her than he thought. Pulling her back from him, he ran his hands and eyes over her to check her for himself.
Dare chuckled and playfully smacked his hands off of her. “Stop that! There really is nothing wrong. I’m just… glad that no one can watch us now.” Dare said, ducking her head back to his shoulder, so he wouldn’t see her pink cheeks.
She knew Balduen could easily figure out what she meant by that, but was unwilling and too embarrassed to just come right out and say anything. The relationship was still too new for Dare to have her usual confidence.
Balduen had to physically put his hands on the bed to keep from grabbing Dare and throwing her onto her back on the bed. The only thing that had kept him from touching her when they were captive was the fear that someone would be watching.
What kept him from it here had been that he thought she was going through too much at once to even want intimacy between them. If he had known she had been thinking about it, he would have damn sure made the time to encourage it. As it was, just her shy words had him rock hard and aching for her.
Balduen chose his next words carefully, just to make sure he hadn’t misunderstood what she was saying. “I didn’t want to push something that you may not have felt ready for once we returned.”
Dare smiled against his neck. Leave it to Balduen to think more about if she were ok with it , she thought to herself. “Hmmm, I think maybe you should ask next time, instead of assuming.” She teased, running her tongue along the shell of his ear.
Balduen drew in his breath sharply at the feel of her tongue , his body reacting instantly to her teasing. He wanted her so badly, but didn’t want to take a chance that she wasn’t ready.
“Are you sure?” Baldy asked huskily, pulling her away from him, so he could look into her eyes. What he saw in them made him growl with hunger. Her liquid amber eyes swirled with desire, by the time the smell of her arousal hit him, he was already too far gone.
Putting his arms around her back, he easily held her while he flipped her over onto her back. Without another word, he took her lips in a soul searing kiss that let her know just how much he wanted and
