Once more, Adam found himself sitting there staring at his screen. This was short, but it carried the same amount of hurt and emotions as her other story. His heart wept. His wolf howled in agony.
How could their mate think so low of herself? Thinking back at all those little things, he knew that she had felt their connection. Her soul had recognized its other half in him. How would he be able to get that stupid idea out of her pretty little head that she wouldn't be worthy of him? He thought it was rather the other way around. He knew his size scared a lot of woman away.
Sure, he wasn't a ladies man. He didn't have a fling every other week. But at the end of the day, he too had needs. He mostly hooked up with some of the single females in his pack. At least they knew they would get satisfied and that he was up for trying anything at least once. Never had he left a woman unsatisfied.
And then he met this cute petite redhead, huge as he was, she made him feel smaller than she was. He'd acted carefully around her, not wanting to scare her, always trying to show her he'd never hurt her. That evening in "The Viper" would have been perfect if not for the attack that followed.
Today he was the one that caused her to have another panic attack; though he was sure he got to her in time to prevent it from fully engulfing her. He could have cried from joy just having her in his arms. He knew he'd been soothing her, but at the same time his wolf was doing just the opposite, luxuriating in the presence of his mate.
Adam huffed. At least he wasn't riled up with anger now, rather he felt sad. She really has no idea how strong she really is. There were people who broke down for a lot lesser things than she was put through. Still she was getting back to her old self, he was sure of that. Really sure, as he thought back to that evening in the club, she had opened up herself for him and he did the same.
Maybe it was just his luck that they only touched on the more general topics to talk about. Said topics were still things that could make or break even the most normal of relationships. He liked a person who could show interest in several areas. That they shared a love food for was a huge plus in his book.
He practically came in his pants as he caught the moans she was producing while she scooped up bite after bite when she and Mia were in the restaurant. It was the biggest compliment she could give him. This thought reminded him he had to stock up on more pots and pans, since he managed to destroy some as he tried to keep himself from going right back in there, drag her from her chair, lock them up in his room and have his wicked way with her.
Adam smiled at this as the emotions flooded through his body once again. Beautiful, I hope you come to your senses soon because you're driving me nuts here. Just having gone through those memories had caused his shorts to tent up, his massive erection just peeking out of his waist band. With a groan he put his hard flesh in a more comfortable position without flashing himself.
This was not a time to be thinking about that just yet. He had more important things to deal with. First on the list, make a comment on her last story. Somehow he felt the need to tell her she was worthy to be wanted, that she deserved to be taken care of, that there was someone out there for her who would cherish and love her.
He would send it to her privately just as his previous one, knowing he couldn't just admit he knew everything he had read had actually happened. He did feel the way she wrote her new story was more open and at some level the reader could understand this was a description of something the writer had gone through. That would be his angle, hoping he was doing this the right way. Concentrating on his screen he started writing.

Mia let out a heavy sigh as she followed her friend. Bronwille would freak if she would show herself now. Mia only wanted to check up on her, knowing it had been quite a stressful day for her dear friend.
Staying safely in a corner, cloaked and muted, she watched as her friend got up, checked her messages and broke down again. She had to stifle the joy she wanted to let known when she saw how Bron got herself together and replied to whomever had her so upset in the first place. Seeing how her friend was acting, convinced Mia that things were getting better with and for her.
Admitting to herself that she had gambled a little bit with coaxing her out to lunch, especially when she took her to Adam's tavern with neither of them knowing. It seemed to be the right thing to do. A mere minute she had second guessed herself, when Bron had her panic attack but it all turned out just fine.
As she saw Bron going back to her room, Mia felt at ease and was convinced things would only get better from now on. She followed her and saw her crawl back into her bed. As Mia witnessed the restless movements of her friend she stepped up and did what she had done so many times in the past.
Touching her temple briefly, she sent a lot of soothing emotions to the sleeping form of Bron. A few seconds later and her friend was happily asleep, a hint of a smile on her face as she drifted further in her dream world.
Blinking her eyes once, Mia found herself in her own bedroom. She had warned Chris up front that she'd be checking up on Bron tonight. Though he didn't like her using her powers when she was pregnant, he understood her concern for her friend.
Looking down at his sleeping form she silently undressed, lifted the covers and scooted next to him. As if he sensed her presence his arm reached out and pulled her close, her bare back against his solid warm chest.
"That took you long enough. Is she all right?" he mumbled with a sleep drunk voice.
Reveling in his presence, she tried to get closer before she answered, "Yeah, she's sound asleep now. I was worried at a certain point but she got through it."
Feeling a bit more awake Chris asked, "What happened then?"
"I'm not really sure what has, but I can only guess she got a mail that kinda upset her and caused her to break down again. She got herself together, replied and went to bed. I gave her peace of mind because, as usual, she was tossing and turning."
"Hmmm I wouldn't mind some tossing and turning myself now that I'm awake," he spoke slowly as his hand sneaked up cupping her bare breast and flicking his thumb over her little nub.
"Jeesh, Chris, is that all you can think about?" she said in mock anger.
"When you are near me and naked? Damn straight that is all I think about," he replied with a hint of laughter in his tone.
Mia bit back a moan and forgot about her friend completely as Chris turned her on her back and claimed her lips with his. One leg parted Mia's legs and as he pulled it up he found just the right spot to rub against. Concentrating on the kiss, one of his hands traveled to her sizable breasts. He knew this wasn't permanent, he knew they were only bigger because she was carrying their child, but he loved how they filled his hands so perfectly.
Pinching her puckered nipple he heard her moan against his lips. He replied with a light appreciative growl of his own as he left her lips and started a wet trail of kisses down her cheek and neck. He licked her collarbone as he kept listening to her reactions. Stopping the movement of his leg against her wet core, he sat up and looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, her eyes almost closed.
Loving the touch of her skin he equally followed the outline of her shoulder down to her hands and back up again. Then his hands went to her chest and cupped both of her breasts and a wicked smile appeared on his face. Now that she was pregnant, he had to be smart about how to please his mate, he didn't want to do anything that could harm their unborn child.
Much to his surprise, he had found out her breasts were overly sensitive now and it appeared they were now in direct contact with her pussy. He kept on smiling as his thumbs ran over her nipples. He could feel at the rising of her chest that she was aware of what he was planning to do. Chris could also see this by the way she already grasped the sheets next to her.
"You prepare yourself, my little druid, I got a surprise for you tonight," he murmured, the smirk never leaving his face. "Close your eyes for a minute here and I'll be right back," he instructed her.
Swiftly he got off the bed and grabbed his jeans. Quickly he took the tiny object he had hidden there before he went to bed. Taking another glance at the second device attached to it he made sure which different settings there were before getting back up the bed. This time he knelt between her legs.
He saw Mia get a bit restless and he filed away in his mind that once their child was born, he'd have to teach her to be less restless. She should know by now he'd never hurt her and that all he ever did and wanted was to please her. Even if this meant tormenting her for a long time first before her let her have her release.
But not tonight. Tonight he wanted things to be intense for both of them. He wanted her to forget about their friends for a while and just focus on the two of them. He gently placed a hand on the tiny growing bump before bending over and placing a gentle kiss on her lips.
"Just a minute longer, my sweet, just relax," he said in a velvety smooth voice.
Lovely, of course! Hopefully they'll be just as quick with this as they were with mine as now I want the rest lol
