You're mine.

Aiden.

That feeling...

It was back.

That warmth that I so desperately craved. The one I always tried to recreate with blankets and Ashton's embraces but was never the same...

The maddening ache that burned into me all the while bringing alive all parts of me I hadn't even realized existed.

Everywhere he touched tingled and burned all at once. Setting my body on fire all the while turning my mind into a spiral blissful haze.

My heart...

My heart was pounding as though it was going to burst out of my chest. The sound of it filling my ears as our bodies pressed together.

Each breath we took aired out in sync. Our chest rising and falling in perfection as though we shared the same lungs.

I trembled beneath him, feeling him in ways we had never been before.

My Alpha...

Our bond was still there as though it never left.
