Willow
In the gentle embrace of slumber I languidly shifted, drawing comfort from the
delightful warmth enveloping me. It was an embrace so reassuring that I
yearned to immerse myself further, to dissolve into its familiar, inviting
embrace. Amidst this comforting cocoon, an unmistakable masculine scent
mingled with the familiar warmth, wafting up to greet my senses. Gradually, I
roused from my somnolent state, my gaze meeting the blurry apparition of
Reuben’s countenance. With a series of deliberate blinks, clarity seeped into my
vision, revealing his peaceful repose; his eyes gently shut, deeply ensconced in
slumber.
Our faces were in such close proximity that the slightest movement on my part
threatened an inadvertent meeting of our l*ps.
Stationary and contemplative, I directed my gaze–upward, registering the
unfamiliarity of my surroundings. I was in Reuben’s bed. How had circumstances
conspired to placein this condition with him?
As I tried to piece together the events of the previous night, my mind felt like a
foggy puzzle that was missing crucial pieces. However, when my gaze locked
onto Reuben’s l*ps, the memories fiooded back. I remembered him rushing to
the riverbank to rescue me, escortingback to the sanctuary of the Emerald
Bright Pack, then enveloping my cold shaking form with his warmth. I hesitated,
pausing in my recollection as my mind touched upon the segment where he
stripped me, leavingbare as we shared the warmth of his b*dy. My pulse
quickened at the recollection of the fervent heat that coursed between us. His
lustful eyes held the depths of his desires as he warmedwith his b*dy heat.
Just thinking about his self control from the previous night when it cto his
lust for me, drew my attention subconsciously to his crimson–hued l*ps.
I found myself compelled to graze my fingertips over my own lower l*p, still
tender from the lingering imprint of his k*ss.
He had k*ssed me.
Not once, but twice throughout the night. Then to make matters worse I could
not resist it even though I did not k*ss back. After six long years, I was once
again back in his
arms.
The memory of our n*ked bodies tucked beneath this blanket brought back the
vivid recollection of Reuben’s arousal from the previous night, his desire to be
intimate with me. Even in the throes of undeniable desire, he refrained from
laying a finger upon me

after my refusal. His self control surprised and attractedfor sreason.
I couldn’t resist the impulse to lift my hand and brush a fingertip over Reuben’s
eyelashes. The contrast between the Reuben I knew from six years ago and the
person laying beforenow was surprising.
How profoundly he had transformed over these six years? If this were the

“He accepted his punishment,” Ceri’s voice reverberated within the recesses of
my mind, her words resonating with my thoughts.
My heart raced hearing her words. Reuben was never one to concede fallibility
or entertain the notion of making mistakes, let alone accept a punishment. Yet,
last night, he acquiesced. He cradledin his arms, exposed and vulnerable,

radiating from his b*dy had woven itself into my very being, creating an
addiction that persisted even after six years apart.
Throughout our ttogether, there had rarely been a day when we refrained
from physical proximity. Our hands seemed to have a mind of their own, seeking
each other out instinctively. However, this tdespite the familiarity and
history between us, he respected my refusal and kept his hands to himself. It
was a departure from our usual closeness, a testament to his restraint and
respect for my boundaries at that moment.
My fingers, seemingly guided by ssubconscious impulse, grazed his long
beautiful lashes. Suddenly, his eyes shot open, catchingoff guard. Startled, I
withdrew my hand but his swift grip captured my wrist midway.
“Where did you learn this bad habit of touchingin sleep, Willow?” His voice,
slow and seductive, penetrated the air as his gaze bore into mine.
“I… I was just…” I bit my l*p, unable to think of an excuse. I did not know why I

A small smile appeared on Reuben’s l*ps as he rubbed his nose against mine

His mention of “morning hardness” brought a sudden awareness to the firm

eyes in embarrassment.
Wait a minute! Why was I apologizing and feeling guilty for his hardness? Ceri
suddenly shota meaningful look at this thought. As I pondered this, I could
not help but wonder was he awake all along? Had he merely closed his eyes,
waiting to see how I would react?
Reuben chuckled warmly, pullinginto a tight embrace. “It’s alright, you can
try out every possible bad habit onone by one. Your ‘torture‘ brings me
pleasure too,” he teased, lowering his face to nibble softly on my fiushed ear.
Unexpectedly, a soft moan sl*pped passed my l*ps, eliciting a refiexive fiinch,
and a rush of embarrassment. I glanced at him with wide eyes, cursing myself
for sounding so needy and explicit. Shit, I hadn’t meant to reveal that side of
myself. His smile in response to my reaction only deepened the redness stealing
over my cheeks. He still knew exactly how to find my weak points even after all
this time. A mere nip from him sent a fiood of sparks through my entire b*dy

“I… I should go,” I stammered, attempting to push him away, feeling a surge of

locked onto mine, observing my every reaction as our bodies remained
intimately entwined.
Then who gets to decide?” I asked, averting my gaze from his, feeling the
intensity of his presence combine with the awareness of every curve and
contour that our close proximity allowed him to feel.

A knock on the door broke the charged atmosphere, as Mia’s voice filled the
room, “Alpha, it’s Mia. You called for me?”
Startled, I becacutely aware of our n*kedness, feeling like I had been
caught in the act while Reuben remained unfazed. “Why did you call her?” I
questioned, shooting a disapproving glance at him. Calm as ever, he rose from
my b*dy then from the bed. Panicking, I hastily pulled the blanket over my
chest, sitting up on the bed.
“Don’t worry, the doors are locked,” he chuckled, tossing one of his clean white
shirts at my head. I looked at his shirt for a second then realized it was the shirt
that I had gifted him for graduation. He… he still had it?
“Wear it for now,” he playfully ruffied my hair, reminiscent of the way he used to
treatwhen we first met eleven years ago. My hands paused before I could
pull the shirt over my head, the tips of my ears turning red at the familiar
gesture. Back when we were together he had acted like my guardian, treating
behavior once again. It made:
tingle.

“Stop it…” I began, pushing his hand away and gazed up at him with a serious
expression. “I haven’t failed to notice how handsy you’ve been all morning, I
gave him a serious look. “Have you misunderstood something? Just because I
slept with you last night doesn’t mean you can-
“Can not what?” he interrupted, leaning down and silencingwith a sudden,
passionate k*ss. I gasped in surprise, my eyes widening as he deepened the
k*ss, leavingbreathless before gently breaking it.
“Don’t threaten to snatch something away that is already mine, Willow,” he
whispered, his thumb possessively rubbing my lower l*p. His eyes burned with
desire as he continued, “You know how easily I am provoked, right?” I stared
into his intense gaze as my breath caught in my throat, uncertain of his cryptic
words. “Put the shirt on, opening the door,” he stated, withdrawing his hand and
heading towards the door.
I am
I sat there buttoning the shirt still processing the intensity of the moment and
meaning behind his words as he opened the door for Mia.
“Check her,” Reuben ordered Mia, prompting her to approach me. However, my
attention was drawn to the wide–open door, through which Ella had passed with
another pack member. Her eyes locked on the scene,in Reuben’s shirt with
messy bedding tucked aroundand Reuben halfway dressed in front of the
wardrobe. She paused abruptly as I witnessed a pinched expression on her
face.
“How are you feeling, Willow?” Mia’s inquiry grabbed my attention.

“I’m fine.” I replied with a smile, glancing back at the now–empty doorway
where Ella had vanished.
“Hmm… I doubt it. Mia murmured while checking my eyes. “Are you feeling
weak?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes, a little,” I shyly admitted. Reuben, who had been standing by the
wardrobe, immediately glanced in my direction.
“Why is she weak?” Reuben frowned, walking back to the bed.
“She seems to be skipping meals, Alpha” Reuben’s eyes immediately snapped
back towhich I intentionally ignored. He used to becbrutishly
overbearing when it cto my meals whenever I skipped them. Even six years
later, I could feel the sintensity in his gaze over the matter.
A sense of panic rose in my heart, I felt that If I did not give a proper
explanation allowing Reuben to fully grasp the situation that he was going to do
something crazy over this trivial matter. So I replied to Mia, “I’ve been
engrossed in my designs and projects, so I didn’t pay much attention to eating,
but I’ll-”
“Let’s keep it brief. What needs to be done now?” Reuben cut in, redirecting his
focus to Mia. I couldn’t help but glare at him.
Mia stood up from the bed, answering him. “It’s not a serious situation, Alpha.
She simply needs to eat properly and rest for a day or two without stressing
herself with work or anything else. It would be best for her to stay in bed as
much as possible…” “That’s impossible!” I interjected, resisting the idea of being
confined to a bedroom. “It is possible, and I will make it happen,” Reuben
countered. “I will take care of her myself for the next two days.”
“That’s great! If the Alpha is going to take care of Willow, then I believe she will
be fine. Please excusethen,” Mia exited the room, winking atbefore
closing the door behind her. Wait! Did she get the wrong idea about me
spending last night with Reuben?
Taking a deep breath, I glanced at Reuben, “What do you mean you will take
care of
me?”
He approachedand explained, “It means you’re not leaving this room until
you have regained your strength.”
I stared at him in disbelief. “What are you-”

“Don’t get out of bed, you need to rest if you want to leave this room, Willow. Or
is it that you’ve becaddicted to my warmth and want to sleep with me
every day?” a playful smile curled at his l*ps.
“Nonsense!” I snapped, my cheeks burning.
“If not, then obey,” he chuckled.
“There’s no way I can rest. I can pause my work, but I have to take care of Wyatt
and Lori,” I murmured.
“Don’t worry about them. I’ll take care of our children and everything else,”
Reubent assured me, sitting on the bed besideand grabbing an orange for a
bowl of fruit.
“You’ll take care of the children?” I couldn’t help but softly laugh. “You can’t

“Well, I want to go mad,” Reuben muttered, his focus on peeling the orange. I
paused, sensing the pain in his heart through our mate bond. “I want to see my
children’s naughtiness and take care of them, he continued, his voice filled with
a subdued emotion. He placed a piece of orange gently in my hand. “I want to
feel like a father,” he confessed, slowly meeting my gaze, his finger hooking with
mine, “I want to get back. everything I’ve lost during that last six years.”
