His grin was roguish. “Ihope so.Iput a fair amount of effort into it.”

I lightly slapped his chest and said, “No.Imean, it started yesterday.Ididn’t really notice it.WhenIwoke up,Iknew you weren’t with me, butIknew exactly where you were.”

His expression grew contemplative. “Youdidn’t feel that before?”

“You feel me?”

His brows drew down. “Howmuch did you read about mates?”

“Well,Ihaven’t read about them, as in, did research or anything.Ilearned whatIknow from romance novels.”

“Yes,”Isaid.

“Fiction,” he said.

“Yes, that’s what novels are,”Ireplied.

He reached to tuck some of my hair behind my ear.

I loved it when he did that.

“Yes,bissi,Ifeel you.Whenyou’re in close proximity,Idon’t see you or know what you’re doing, butIalways know where you are.”

Knowing that made me feel warm all over.

Oh my gods.

I smiled. “Itkind of already was.SoI’dsay apocalyptic.”

He assumed a smug look.

I rolled my eyes.

Males.

“What else?”Ipushed. “Canthey communicate?”

“Yes.”

Whoa!
