Zion wasted no time in helping out, in pushing forward to allow my canines to elongate, as Bailey smiled up at me, nothing more but happiness in her eyes as she offered me her neck. No, this may not be the way we would like to do this, in a hectic room, but we could always mark one another again. This made her mine. It meant she was safe…
I leaned a little further forward as I sunk my teeth into the soft skin of Bailey’s neck. In the spot where her collar bone met her neck, and I felt the shudder rush through my body as the matebond snapped into place… and a sense of contentment flooded me too. Tears filled my eyes as I realized, I felt whole again... I had been withdrawn and alone for so long. Broken and isolated after losing Isla... and Bailey had fixed me.
The metallic taste of her blood filled my mouth, before I ran my tongue along her mark to help it heal and clean up any blood. A rush of pleasure and happiness flooded through me in that moment as I pulled away to look at Bailey, who was looking up at me with wide eyes. That sense of completeness so strong. Who knew Bailey could be the one to bring that for me?
‘Hey you.’ she mindlinked, with a little wink, and I smiled.
“Well, I think you have your answer, don’t you?” I heard Caleb say to Miles, and I had to hold back the threatening laugh. My friend was definitely being to the point today…
“No. Bailey, you are making a mistake. You know that, right?” Miles tried, and Bailey shook her head.
