“I love you,” he said.
“Boyan?”
“I don’t care who hears. I love you. I love you so fucking much, and I know this is not perfect, and I don’t know what you wanted out of life, but I love you more than anything else in the world, and I don’t want to live without you. I want everything out in the open.”
He heard the rest of the pack slowly start to leave the room, giving him and Agatha privacy, which was very much needed.
There were tears in Agatha’s eyes.
“I didn’t mean to make you cry. That’s the last thing I want to do.”
She sniffled. “They’re good tears. Happy tears. I love you too, Boyan. I know this is all fast and everyone will be telling us that we’re moving too fast.”
“The good news is that wolves only know one speed, and that is fast—really fast.” He stroked her cheeks and stared into her eyes. “You fucking scared me.”
“I don’t even know why I passed out.” She frowned. “I don’t even feel like I passed out. If anything, I feel like, er, well, I was dreaming.”
“You were dreaming.”
“Yeah, I was in a forest and so was this wolf. It was a beautiful wolf, bright white, and so kind. For the longest time I think we just sat staring at each other, and then it was like we had a conversation.”
“That’s your wolf,” Boyan said.
“My wolf.”
“That voice in your head. The one that helps you to think and feel right. The one that tells you if you’re in any danger, or if it wants to rub its body against another—that is me.”
She laughed.
“This is all a little surreal. I feel like I should be panicking but I’m not. I feel fine.”
He kissed her lips and pressed his head against hers. “You’re going to be fine. More than fine. I love you, Agatha.”
“I have no idea what all of this will mean.”
“It doesn’t have to mean anything at all. The pack is going to accept you, and in time, we will have children, and we’ll figure all of this out together.”
“Children?”
“If you want kids, that is. I’m sorry. I’m kind of babbling here.” He stared into her eyes and saw there were tears glistening as she smiled back at him. “What is it?” he asked.
“You’re babbling over me, I never thought anyone would ever babble over me.”
He pulled her close and slammed his lips against hers. When she passed out, he couldn’t recall being so frightened in his life. He was part of the Poison Wolves MC, he never got frightened. Nothing scared him.
“I love you, Agatha, so fucking much.” He thought about Draco and certainly his own feelings that consumed him. Nothing could ever happen to her. He would do everything in his power to keep her safe.
“I love you too. Am I dreaming?”
“No,” he said. “And even if you are, then let’s make sure we never wake up.”
Chapter Fourteen
The Full Moon
The pack hadn’t exactly been overly welcoming. From what Boyan had told her, Alpha had called a meeting, and it was known that she was in fact a wolf, with different abilities. She wasn’t present for the meeting, which she was grateful for. She’d never been someone who wanted to be watched.
Now with the full moon high in the sky, Boyan had walked her into the forest. She had already seen several of the pack change into their wolf form. Agatha had been a little afraid before tonight. Boyan had spent the last few days telling her everything about the pack, talking about his wolf, his first change. Other than his commitments to the pack and the fact she had to work, they’d spent all their free time in bed. They had divided their time between his clubhouse and her home.
“Are you nervous?” he asked.
“No.”
There’s no need to be nervous.
Ever since she had learned what she was, and after several conversations with a woman called Elizabeth Cole, she had come to accept that voice inside her head. She’d never cut the voice off, figuring it was part of who she was, but there had been times over the years she’d not exactly listened. She was listening now.
Boyan pulled her close and kissed her. Feeling his body press against hers made her moan.
“I love you.”
She chuckled. Hearing him say those words never got old.
He stepped away from her and she watched, amazed and totally in awe as he stripped out of his clothes, but that wasn’t what made her gasp. Seeing Boyan melt away, to give way to his wolf. Boyan was a big boy, and there was no fear. She knew this wolf wouldn’t hurt her as he approached.
She held her hand out and stroked his fur. The wolf within her mind rubbed against the wall of her skin, and Agatha closed her eyes, seeing her wolf, feeling it, and knowing in her heart everything was going to be okay. More than okay.
