There's a snake in my boot
Kate listened intently, watching him just the same as he did to her but almost as if looking for something, the silence dragging for what seemed an eternity when he finished speaking, until she finally returned an answer.shadowz1995 said:" I would want nothing more than you...I mean the room. I mean yes I want you but I.....goddammit." The male stepped away from her for a brief second and took a deep breath that brought pain racking through his body. He was still battered and torn up after all but the inhalation served its purpose. It calmed his love-crazed nerves and helped him regain his composure. "No one else has made me this damn nervous...." Crimson muttered under his breath, as if thinking aloud.
Victor turns once more to face Kate and his back is to the bed now. He slowly sits on the edge and focuses on her now. Every detail of her. Her eyes, her lips, hair, nose, the sound of her steadily increasing heartbeat, her voice. Everything about her. Crimson looked at her like if it was the last time he was ever going to see her and it only confirmed it. "Yep, I am hopelessly in love with you. I want you with every fiber of my being and I want to be yours just as much. If you'll have me Kate. I'd...like to make it official. I can't even try to deny it any longer. I want you as my mate." Victor said this assuming she knew what this meant. They would mark each other and essentially "seal the deal" (if Kate goes with it just fade to black to the next day or whenever they wake up lmao) The crimson eyed warrior's gaze didn't falter and his voice no longer wavered. He wanted this more than anything. More than even going back to his village. He wanted her.
"Victor, my love, I am yours and I want nothing more than to keep it that way..my father only graced me with his presence for so long before passing so you'll have to..teach- me." She didn't expect her words to waver so and she took a minute to testable herself. "I haven't a clue behind the politics of mating, he refused to even touch the subject.."
As Kate finished it dawned on her that not only had her father not taught her but he'd gone out of his way almost to keep her from learning; isolating her, teaching her to be harsh and defensive. He'd modeled a brilliant wolf, an alpha that could thrive on her own, an apex predator.
She got swept up in her own thoughts, tangled in a mental net and shyly took a step away from him, backing off a few feet. She felt weird admitting she didn't know, the feeling growing worse the more she thought about it.
