Chapter Two
WILDER
I keep my grip on Sterling as I make sure that he’s standing on his own.

I take a deep breath, the way his face went pale as he stood up, how his legs gave out. Damn, that scared me. “Me neither. Are you okay?”
“I’m good. Just a little light-headed.” He pushes away from me, and I let him go, even though I’d love to do nothing more than to strip him and take him right here, on this bed. But, as his scent is still a little weak, I can suppress it for now. I know it will be harder later today and I’m not looking forward to that.
“What were you going to do?” I hover nearby, ready to grab him the moment something goes wrong again.
“I want to take a shower, you know, clean up.” He looks at me pointedly.
