Chapter 76
"It's not that, my love. Believe me when I say that I want to make you mine. My wolf and I want you to ourselves. But marking you will leave a permanent mark that will never fade. And I don't think doing that now with your father's lack of knowledge of our kind would be the best thing."
I pursed my lips, thinking his words over. No matter how scared I was of being marked by the man I loved, I did want him to. So badly. But he did have a point there. I don't think my dad would be too pleased if he saw a bite mark embedded on my skin the very next morning. There will no doubt be endless questions about how I got it and who had done it to me. Saying that my mate, who so happens to be a werewolf, did this to me isn't really the best explanation at the moment.
