Ellie POV
I woke up again to being spooned from Dustin. He was still asleep. This just made things more complicated. I had no idea what to do anymore. The mate bond was so overpowering. How could I not just learn to control those urges. I knew Dustin as my best friend, and that explains those weird moments leading up to my birthday. Would this have all been different if I told him the truth from the start?
I felt comfortable right now, but it was different from how I felt when I was with Odin.
"What's wrong?" Dusty said as he placed gentle kisses on my shoulder
"Mmm... nothing. I'm just thinking, " I replied
"Did you want to talk?" As he moved to my neck
"Not yet," as I placed my hand on the back of his neck as he did it
I could feel the desire for him start to rush through again.
