36. Terry
I woke up having Emery in my arms again. This is the second day in a row that I have been able to enjoy having my beautiful mate in my arms. I have never slept as well as I have these last two days. I no longer wake up in the middle of the night having the cold sweats from the nightmares that never leave me alone. Except somehow, she keeps them away. I kiss her on her head as I move to get out of bed, careful so I don’t wake her. I know she wants more from me but I’m just not ready to open myself up that much. I know it’s because I’m scared of her being disappointed in me and then leaving me because I’m not good enough for her in bed or out of it.
Sighing I make my way to the bathroom. Serena is supposed to be back by now. She should have gotten in late last night. Our meeting
