 Adrian's Pov

I couldn't stop the shit—eating grin on my face even if I tried, the sense of pure love and comfort I was getting from the fragile little thing in my arms was enough to make me almost high with pleasure and delight. She wanted me!Hearing her breathing even out I instantly knew that she had fallen asleep in my arms where she belonged, her tiny hands fisting my shirt as she seemed to subconsciously move as close to me as possible. I couldn't help but wrap my arms around her bony form, frowning again when I was reminded of how she was nothing more than skin and bones. I would have a word with Lisa tomorrow; perhaps ask her if there were any sort of fatty foods that would get her to put on weight quicker. I didn't like seeing her looking fragile enough that one touch looked as if it would break her. Pressing my lips against the top of her head I savored the physical contact she was allowing me, knowing that I was pushing my luck with my next actions but not being able to help myself. She was with me, she had willingly crawled into my lap and there was no way in hell I was letting her go.Not wanting to risk removing myself and waking her, terrified that she would change her mind I slowly wrapped an arm around the back of her legs as I winced when I moved her; praying that she didn't wake up. Thankfully she didn't, already in dream land as I laid us both down with her curled up against my side. I couldn't help the sigh of relief and pleasure; I wanted it to always be like this.When she had brought up me not telling her about us being mates I had tensed instantly, never having thought of it like that since I was more worried about her rejecting me than how she would see it if she found out. But now she knew I couldn't find anything wrong with how everything had worked out. I knew it didn't magically make everything alright, I wasn't that naïve, but it was a start and for now I was fine with that.Sighing I continued to stare at my mate as she pressed herself against me, our legs entwined and I hoped to god that she didn't feel just how much pleasure I was getting out of this position against her thigh. I may know that was she wasn't ready, but that didn't mean her soft body pressed against mine, the fact she had clearly accepted me and her edible aroma didn't have an effect on my body. I was a male after all, a teenage hot—blooded male whose soul mate was currently wrapped around me like she was.I didn't know how long I simply gazed at her, brushing her soft curls from her face so I could gaze at her sweetheart features until I joined her in the world of sleep, dreaming of my mate as I did so.I woke up with a start, swallowing harshly as my eyes snapped open when I felt my mate still pressed firmly against me. Surprisingly that wasn't what had almost moaning out loud though, not what had my wolf practically purring in lust and delight but the fact that I could feel every part of my mate’s chest against mine. Literally.It seemed that sometime in the middle of the night we had both gotten too hot, what with me having gone to sleep in my clothes, under the covers as well as running naturally hot. I knew that Holly was still too underweight to get her temperature back to normal, but even I knew that even she would have been too heated, what with her pressed against me as close as she was. Not that I was complaining, not at all.Anyway, back on track. The reason why I was practically panting was not only had some time in the night had I removed both my loose jeans and shirt but it seemed that my mate had stripped down as well. I doubt she even realized, hell I knew she hadn't realized since the shirt of mine that she had been wearing was thrown hazily on the end of the bed as her naked and very bare chest was pressed against my side. I was in both hell and heaven.Taking a deep breath I couldn't help pulling her closer, the feeling of her naked chest against mine pure and utter heaven. If I died now, I would die more than a little happy.Knowing that she would be not only embarrassed but self—conscious if she woke up like this I stayed put with her wrapped in my arms. I could sense that the sun was only just coming up and the rest of the pack were all still in bed, apart from those patrolling of course. I couldn't blame them; they did have school this morning after all.Sighing I shifted slightly before burying my face in my mates’ curly locks, breathing in her scent of cherries as I felt my wolf purr in delight and pleasure at the delightful aroma she was giving off. Never had he been so relaxed, felt so calm and loved as he did right now. Due to an alphas wolf being more dominant, possessive and vicious it was clear that the only person who would be able to calm him down was the little thing in my arms. I couldn't help but smile; I would have it no other way.With that on my mind I let myself drift off again, trying to ignore how aroused I was as I tried not to pay attention to how every breath my mate took her breasts only served to rub against me. God, she was going to be the death of me.

 I awoke to the sound of the exact words 'holy crap' much to my amusement, but I desperately tried to keep the amused expression off my face as I pretended that her exclamation hadn't brought me any kind of pleasure. I knew what she was talking about of course, it was obvious to anyone that it was clear she had just realized just how stripped down she was.It wasn't long though until I had to fight the urge to tense my form as I tried to keep still, my humour instantly fading when I realized that this could all go wrong. If she overreacted then I could be in deep shit, not only she may not want to sleep next to me again but she may think that I was taking advantage. SHIT! This was not good, now I had tasted the pleasure that her being by my side brought me I did not want to go another night without her in my arms. Just no, it wasn't acceptable! I needed my mate!I was holding my breath as I felt her freeze against me, not liking how stiff she was as my wolf snarled and whimpered at the thought of her leaving us. I knew I wouldn't allow it, after sleeping just one night with her in my arms I knew that as long as I could help it then it would always be this way. She was my mate: in my arms was where she belonged."Oh God" I heard her whimper, moving out of my arms and I reluctantly let her go. I didn't like it, but I had no choice. Hopefully she would think I hadn't noticed, that was what I was going for anyway.Playing my part I rolled over onto my other side so my back was to her, hating the distance I put between us but knowing it would make her more comfortable. It did, her sigh of relief telling me that much. It wasn't long until the sound of ruffling could be heard by my sensitive hearing, it being clear that my shy mate was quickly rushing to put my shirt on her and I tried to stifle the groan of disappointment that wanted to leave my lips. What? It wasn't like it was my fault; she was my mate after all!Not knowing what else to do I slowly let myself appear to be waking up, rubbing my eyes as I tried to appear still half asleep when I reached for her. Truthfully, I was already missing the feel of her in my arms and didn't want to let her go. I knew that now I could touch her more, craving the physical contact, that both I and my wolf would think it would be unacceptable that she ever removed herself from my sights. The more attached I got, the more I would hate her being away from me so at my side she would remain. Hopefully that was.She came willingly back into my arms, clearly deciding that I didn't realize about her having ben half—naked apart from a pair of my boxers as she settled back down by my side. I couldn't help but smile softly, it was still early in the morning and I couldn't help but remember Lisa mentioning something about making sure my mate slept as much as she possibly could to help her gain back her energy. So with that on my mind I brought her closer, making sure I was constantly aware of just how fragile she was."Go back to sleep, sweetheart" I breathed as I pulled her flush against me, her sigh of pleasure making me grin as we both relaxed into each other's embrace but it was clear that we were both too awake to dose off again. Still, that didn't mean I wanted my mate over—exerting herself if I could help it.So with that we stayed in each other's arms for the next hour and a half, the only movement she made was the slight stiffening of her form when I heard Paul shout that they were heading off. I couldn't help but roll my eyes at him, not only was the pack incredibly curious about what my mate looked like as they had yet to see her but they couldn't seem to grasp just how skittish my mate was around them all. But I knew, I knew that as soon as they caught a glimpse of her they would understand instantly. She was more than a little timid, but I was pleased beyond belief that she seemed to be growing more confident and comfortable around me.Waiting until they had all left, the parents of them all having another packhouse to live in I shifted in my bed before craning my neck to look down at my mate, a purr rumbling in my chest as her fingers lightly traced my stomach and lower abs
