Elaine POV
My vision was blurry when I woke up but the muscular back with tattoos on it eventually came into view. Azaire was hunched over shirtless on the edge of the bed.
“Hey… you,” my voice cracked.
He turned. “You’re awake.”
“How long was I out?”
“Two hours, mate. I thought the venom didn’t work.”
I sat up my bones didn’t ache surprisingly. “Is Blazer still here?”
“He wouldn’t leave until he knew you were better.”
He climbed on top of me and kissed me. I felt the hunger of his wolf through our mate bond. His need and desire pulled my wolf out of her semi-slumber. I dug my nails into his back and darted my tongue out to meet his.
“You scared me,” Azaire said.
“I’m sorry babe. I didn’t think I’d use that much energy.”
Azaire brushed my cheek and stared intensely into my eyes.
