Amy fell asleep halfway home from the boutique, curled against the window with a hand resting on her stomach. She looked exhausted, and I hated that I couldn’t take the pain from her.

After what Clara pulled, my wolf was still restless. Every few minutes, my chest tightened as if I’d failed to protect my mate.

When we got home, Cole opened the door for us.

“Is she okay?” he whispered.

“She’s drained,” I said. “And she shouldn’t have had to deal with that today.”

Cole nodded, eyes dark with anger. “Clara’s in the dungeons. No contact. No communication. Guards doubled.”

“Good,” I said.

He stepped back, and I carried Amy inside. She stirred when I laid her on the bed.

“I’m awake,” she muttered, eyes barely open.

“You need to rest.”

She exhaled softly. “I don’t want to sleep. I’ll just start thinking too much.”

I sat beside her and brushed her hair behind her ear. “Then we’ll do something that doesn’t involve thinking.”

Her eyes opened a little more. “Like what?”

I didn’t answer yet. I just kept my hand in her hair.

“You scared me today,” I said quietly. “The moment Clara touched you–I almost lost control.”

Amy reached for my hand. “I wasn’t scared of her. I’m only tired of all this. I want one day where we’re just… normal.”

“We’ll have that.”

“Really?” She raised an eyebrow.

“Yes,” I stood. “Which is why you’re not cooking, you’re not cleaning, you’re not worrying, and you’re not arguing with me.”

She gave a tiny smile. “So what am I doing?”

“You’re going to relax. Completely.”

Suspicion flickered in her eyes. “Danicl…”

“I booked something.”

“You booked what?”

“You’ll see.”

She sat up slowly. “I swear, if you bring me a stack of council documents and call it bonding time-”

I lifted her chin. “It’s a spa night.”

She blinked. “A what?”

“You heard me.”

Her lips parted in surprise. “You… booked a spa date?”

“Yes.”

“For us?”

“Yes.”

She stared like I’d said something impossible. “You hate spas.”

“I know.”

“You said they smell like fake flowers.”

“I know.”

“And that massages are pointless because you’re a wolf and-”

“Amy.” I pressed a finger to her lips. “Get up.”

Her smile finally broke through. “Fine.”

I helped her to her feet, and we left the room together.

The spa room was set up in the private wing–dim lights, soft music, warm towels. Nothing fancy, just quiet.

I didn’t trust leaving the territory tonight, not with Elias out there panicking about losing everything.

Amy stepped inside and inhaled slowly. “Daniel… this is actually nice.”

“I try,”

“You try once a year,” she teased.

“That’s enough.”

She laughed gently, the sound I’d been waiting for all day. For the first time since morning, tension eased in my shoulders.

Two therapists entered, and Amy stiffened.

“I don’t want strangers touching me,” she whispered.

She looked up at me. “Stay with me.”

“Always.”

I waved the therapists away. They left, closing the door behind them.

Amy and I were alone again.

She touched the edge of the massage table. “Now what?”

I moved closer, close enough to hear her breath catch. “I make sure you relax.”

She searched my face. “And what about you?”

“I’ll worry about myself later.”

“No,” she said firmly. “We’re doing this together.”

She reached for my shirt and tugged gently. “Sit.”

I sat on the edge of the table. She stood between my knees and rested her forehead against mine.

“I thought something would happen today,” she whispered. “When Clara pushed me… it crossed my mind. I thought the baby-”

I held her waist gently. “Don’t say it.”

“I was scared.”

“I know. And I’m sorry I stepped out for that call.”

“You were working,” she said. “It wasn’t your fault.”

“It feels like it.”

Amy cupped my cheeks. “Daniel… I’m fine. The baby is fine.”

I pressed her hands against my face, calming myself in her warmth.

“I need you,” I whispered.

“I’m right here,” she whispered back.

I pulled her onto my lap, and she curled into me. Her legs hung over one side of mine, and she rested her head on my shoulder.

“You reek of stress,” she murmured.

“I am stressed.”

She smiled against my neck. “Then relax.”

“I’m trying.”

“Try harder.”

I chuckled quietly, and she squeezed me.

We stayed like that for a long moment, breathing together. My wolf calmed, finally convinced she was safe.

When she pulled back, her eyes were softer. “Lay down.”

“What?”

“Your turn.”

“Amy-”

“Daniel,” she said,

I sighed and stretched out on the table. “This is ridiculous.”

“Relax.”

“That’s the problem.”

She gave me a look, then placed warm oil in her palms. Her hands touched my shoulders, and I nearly jolted.

“Amy-”

“Shh.”

Her hands moved slowly, gently pressing tension out of my muscles.,

“You hold too much,” she whispered.

“Comes with the title.”

“That title is yours. Not Elias’s.”

She leaned over me. “Look at me.”

I opened my eyes.

“You’re the Alpha,” she said.

I laughed quietly. She smiled too, then brushed her thumb over my shoulder.

“You’re mine,” she said softly. “And I’m yours. Don’t forget that.”

“I won’t.”

She leaned down and kissed me. It was slow, sure, full of everything we’d been holding in since morning. I pulled her closer, deepening the kiss, letting her taste bring me back to myself.

Her hands slid to my chest. My arms wrapped around her waist. The heat between us intensified. I lifted her slightly so she straddled me, and she gasped softly against my mouth.

“Daniel…” she whispered.

“We shouldn’t rush.” I said.

“We’re not rushing.”

“I want you,” she said quietly.

I closed my eyes for a second, “I want you too.”

We kissed again, deeper, slower, and I let my hands roam her back. She held onto me like she needed the closeness as much as I did.

“We should finish the spa part,” she said.

“Do we have to?”
