I could feel pushing around the area that the insides were not as healed as the outside looked. That was damn smart of her to burn the would closed though. I smiled, thinking of how quick my mate was in a crisis. I lay back and threw my arms up behind my head when it dawned on me that there was no angry response from my fragmented mind about her being my mate
