I sit behind the steering wheel and start the engine. The passenger door opens and Cain hops inside. I put it in reverse and press the accelerator.

I feel Cain’s eyes on me, but I keep mine on the road.

“Are you sure you want to—”

“Take a morning-after pill?” I cut him off. “Yeah, I’m sure.”

“What about killing anyone who threatens your future children?”

“Our children, asshole. You know you are stuck with me for life, right?” I correct him just to fight, I know I called them ‘mine’ before. Maybe I’m just as toxic as he is. Maybe that’s why Moon Goddess cursed me with him as a mate.

Cain just laughs at me. And it’s like a belly-shaking laugh.

“You should also know that the pill only prevents the implantation, it doesn’t harm an existing pregnancy,” I add after a moment.

“How does it actually work?” He looks out the window.

“Um, I think itdoes something to the wall of the uterus so the egg couldn’t, you know, attach to it?”

“Hm, ok. And are you sure you want to do that?” Cain stares at me again.

“Are you sure you want to keep asking me that?”

He sighs.

“I don’t want to be a father—” he starts talking.

“This bloodline will die with me,” I mutter quietly in a low voice, pretending to be him. He snorts with laughter.

“I don’t want ityet. But we have money, so you can do whatever you want and I can always be… absent. Either way, it’s your body—I’ll support and help you in any decision you make.”

Why is he the more mature one all of a sudden?

“Are you sure you still can’t feel your mate?” I ask, concentrating on the road, knowing full well that I wouldn’t be alive if he did.

“Are you sure you heard me when I said I don’t want to be a father?” He scoffs as if being mature was a bad thing.

“You can be mature and not want to have kids, nothing wrong with that.”

Hell, I thinkIdon’t want kids either. Not in the world I currently live in. But I don’t say that to him. Because it is his world. Literally.

I stop in front of a human drugstore and grab my wallet and a phone.

“Can I fuck you in the car? Considering we already had to come here.”

I ignore his sudden appetite, noting he really must have been tired that last week, and get out of the car. He follows.

“Remember to act human and not intimidate them with your Alpha aura. You don’t realize it, but it’s very strong for them even if you can’t command anything. Also don’t growl or howl, they don’t do that.”

And Cain growlsa lot.

“You don’t have werewolf healers?” he asks, looking at a cheaply lit-up building with a slightly disgusted look.

“We do, but I’m a princess that everyone knows, and it’s not in our best interest for them to gossip about me not wanting to get pregnant with you. Come on.”

“Oh, shit,” he abruptly stops me with his arm, “You can’t walk in like that.”

He takes off his leather jacket and puts it on me, looking at my neck with slight concern. I put my hand on the left side of it where he bit me. It’s wet, sticky, and a little bit painful to touch.
