    Ohlen watched Andi struggle to understand. To accept what he told her. Watched her gnaw on her full bottom lip. Her lashes fluttered with her confusion as she shifted uncomfortably beneath the blankets.
    “Have I made you uncomfortable?” he asked. Praying for the day when their bond was strong enough to allow him to feel her emotions. Instead of catching the jumbled scent of them.
    “No. I’m just wondering why. I mean, you’re um, not exactly getting the prize of the litter with me.”
    Her lips rolled together as a shameful flush painted her cheeks. Waiting for what he assumed was his judgment. She did not understand her value. She saw herself as damaged or less than the others. Until their bond was truly formed, Andi would have no idea how truly precious she was to him. Ohlen reached for her. Slowly enough to give her time to push him away. Relieved when she so readily allowed him to draw her into his lap.
    Though she came to him without hesitation, he could still feel the fine threads of tension in her body. Scent her nervousness while he held her close for a moment. Let the sensation of her soft body in his lap, the ridiculously arousing press of her breasts against his chest, burn into his mind. Into his memories. This was the first time she hadn’t flinched from his touch out of habitual fear. It seemed like so small a thing, but to him it was monumental. He slid his fingers into her hair. Combed through the silky soft strands. Lifted them to his nose to inhale the sweetness of her unique scent.
    “You’ve been informed by your commander of how matings work among my people?”
     
    “She explained that you’re ah, older than us.” Andi murmured. “That you mate only once and only to one woman. There were a lot of other details. In all honesty, I was a bit fixated on being invisible, as I’m not the sort of woman a warrior should have for a um, wife. Mate.”
     
    Ohlen’s beast snarled and slashed at his insides to hear her speak of herself that that way. With the total belief that it was true. He wanted to roar at her that she was wrong. Struggled to not let his fury for a dead man overtake his tone.
    “Your past is just that, my one. Your past. We make our own future now. I see you, Andi. All of you and you are my solace after so long alone. Without doubt, you are more than I had ever imagined. More than beautiful, more than brave, more-“
    He was forced to stop talking because Andilifted her lips to his again. Trembled in his hold when he growled softly. But she didn’t pull away . He followed her lead for now. Content to learn this mating dance of mouths that she called, kissing. More than content to learn the soft, sweet curves of her lips. To discover what made her shiver. What made her breath catch. What made her fingers dig into the muscle of his arms and hold on tight.
    Ohlen tried to situate her so that his cock wasn’t digging into her thigh so obviously. Another sound was pulled from him when his Andi wound her arms around his shoulders to stay right where she was. He could scent her desire, the soft fragrance of it intoxicating. He could feel her uncertainty despite her boldness. The white hot curl of her tongue across his lips was tentative but no less potent. It took every ounce of willpower he had not to pounce on her and devour her, one lick at a time. It was akin to torture, easing away before he lost control or took over. Before he took more than he should.
    “I see now why my commander was so enraged when I happened to disrupt his time kissing his mate.”
    The flush on her cheeks darkened. Her eyes sparkled with shyness. Her stomach gave a hungry rumble.
    “I’m sorry,” she gasped with embarrassment.
    He
