“And you’ve been here ever since,” Dean said.

“They’re my family.”

“I’m glad you found them,” Dean told him. “That we’ll have family to have our backs.”

“They can be your family too?” Logan hoped. Prayed that Dean would say yes.

“As long as they will accept me and Noah,” Dean replied.

“They already have.” Logan knew it in his heart.

“Then I’m glad to be home,” Dean said.

“Home?” Logan frowned. “Here?”

“This is where you live with your brothers.”

“But what about your apartment? Don’t you have to be close to the bakery?”

“I can go back and forth.”

That wasn’t fair. It was a twenty-minute drive to town and Dean had to be at the bakery early in the morning. Very early. “We can stay at the apart—”

“You realize that all I have to do is portal back and forth. I don’t have to drive. We can come and go as we please,” Dean reminded him.

Oh! No, Logan hadn’t thought about that. He knew about portals. They already had two in the woods. One to the fae realm and one to the hell realm. It shouldn’t be a big deal.

“I’ll set up a portal here and that means that you can just pop into the bakery whenever you want as well,” Dean said.

“Whenever I want?” Logan wanted that kind of access to his mate. He was a needy boy after all.

“Whenever,” Dean said seriously. “And I never want you to second-guess whether or not I want you with me. I do.”

“I…I’ll try not to be a nuisance.”

“You could never. Now, how about we get you in that hot shower?”

“Please!”

“Okay, baby. Would you like me to help you or wait outside the bathroom as you shower? It’s your choice and there’s no wrong answer.”

Logan bit his lip as he squirmed nervously. He knew what he wanted. It was hard to say though.

Dean rubbed Logan’s cheek with his own. “Why are you blushing?”

“I want you to shower with me,” Logan confessed softly. “We’re going to mate. You’ll see my body anyway.” And Logan had a nice body. The one thing about him was he looked good. Logan just wanted people to see more than his appearance.

“I will see your body,” Dean replied. “That doesn’t mean I’m entitled to it whenever I want. You have the right to privacy. And to say no about anything.”

“You do too!” Logan blurted out. “If I get too…clingy. You can have your space.” He didn’t want to make his mate uncomfortable.

“I appreciate that. I would like to shower with you. Soap up that hot body of yours. Touch you. Before I take you to bed and make you all mine.”

By the time Dean was done talking, Logan panted. His cock hard under his sleep pants. “Yes,” he hissed.

“Let me get the shower started.” Dean kissed him. This kiss wasn’t as light and gentle as the other had been. Dean fucked Logan's mouth with his tongue, drawing Logan closer to that much-needed climax. His dick ached to be touched.

Dean backed away slowly after breaking the kiss.
