The Alpha's Slave Mate novel Chapter 35

Chapter Thirty-Five

Daphne's Point of View

Caleb and I napped for a short time after all the fun that we had. I woke up to him nuzzling my neck and shoulder. I felt like we were in a magical place that was made solely for us. As if the Moon Goddess herself craft every blade of grass, the waterfall, the trees, and the rocks just for us. After Caleb realized I was awake he stood up and scooped me up in his arms, cradling me to his chest as if I were a baby.

“Caleb what are you doing?” I could not help but ask him.

“Well my love if you must know I am taking us for a little dip. I figure that our romp this afternoon is going to make you a little sore, and this water is fed from an underground spring which so happens to be a hot spring.” As Caleb is finished filling me in, I hear him start to enter the water. :

“So, is this better than seeing me ina bikini?” I could not help but tease him a little bit. Our time together has made me slightly bolder in our relationship.

Perhaps I was really starting to believe that he truly wants me as his mate.

“Yes, it by far better.” Glancing around I can see that Caleb is almost to the middle of the little wading pool. 

Without warning Caleb suddenly releases me and I fall. I expected the water to be cooler but instead I am wrapped by nice warm water. Laughing I pop up and start to splash Caleb for dropping me. We play in the water fora while, splashing around like children.

“Come here I want to show you something.” Caleb takes my hand and starts leading me toward the small waterfall. He has a little mischievous glint in his eyes, and 1 am curious as to what he is up to. “Careful the rocks are slippery because of moss.” Caleb is pulling me up next to the falling water. I follow his footsteps carefully so that I do not fall. Caleb steps forward bent slightly at his waist and disappears behind the water. Following him, I see that there is a small cave behind the waterfall.

“Caleb this is amazing thank you for showing me.”

“I came here a lot when I was younger. This place really helped me after I lost my parents. I could imagine I was a pirate going off on grand adventures.

Sometimes I would just come here to cry. I missed them so much.” As he is talking, I reach over and grab his hand, letting him know that I am here for him.

“Daphne, I have never brought anyone else here before. This place is special to me. I am glad that I get to share it with you. I want to share everything with you. My life, my happiness, even my sorrow because I know that we are meant to be together. You are my sun, my moon, and my stars. My world simply does not exist without you anymore.”

Caleb's words are beyond touching.
