"Yeah, from what I know, that is accurate."
"So thank you for that."
He smiled. I forgot how handsome this man was when he smiled. "Any time."
"Well, I hope I don't go through another heat any time soon. Sorry, but that was not the greatest thing to go through. It's like all the orgasms in the world wouldn't suffice until it just went away."
Silas laughed and stood up again. "I think we should get you cleaned up. Even though your mates don't hate me, I don't see that sticking if I keep you away much longer."
He grabbed onto my hand and lifted me up from the tub. He took me to the shower and held out the loofah for me to take. Now that I knew Silas could be a caring mate, it was hard to tell him to leave the bathroom. Before I second guessed myself, I grabbed onto the towel instead of the loofah, undoing it so it would fall to the ground. Silas looked at me with widened eyes before I grabbed onto his hand to pull him into the shower with me.
Chapter Twelve: Dylan
I had sex with Silas.
The person who I've spent the last few weeks hating because he rejected me was the person I spent my first heat with. I lost track of how many damn times we had sex, and even as it was tapering off, I still couldn't turn down the opportunity to have shower sex with him. Why? I DON'T KNOW! What was worse was the fact I was now sitting on his bed with his bathrobe around me, making me breathe in his sexy, spicy scent.
If the Great Moon wanted to throw the fact I rejected his ass right back at me when he thought it would be a great time to take me back, I am really starting to not like the Great Moon. I found the goddess's humor unbearable.
THE IRONY!
How did I end up in Silas's bed instead of with my mates?! Yes, Silas was a mate, but I haven't completed the bond with him yet FOR A REASON! He hasn't given me that apology letter yet.
I will not let that shit go.
However, he has made a lot of progress on the things I wanted. Silas was understanding Shadowborns like I asked. He clearly wanted to be with me because he's dealt with my bitchy ass since he came here, too. Even during this heat, he had been a gentleman. He could have used this moment to claim me, regardless of how I felt about him right now. I was at his mercy from the second I walked into his room and the heat overwhelmed me. He actually said no at first!
No guy turns down sex from a heat.
It's supposed to be more heightening and connect the two people together on a deeper level. It's why it's encouraged toonly go through the heat with your mates. If someone didn't have their mate yet, and they somehow go through a heat, then it's recommended to be locked up where no male could get to you.
Silas wanted me to find my mates. He refused and only yielded when my persistence became unavoidable. He even said the spell that made it so I couldn't get pregnant.
Maybe I was wrong about Silas. He isn't as self-absorbed as I thought. Although his arrogance was off-putting at first, it didn’t encompass his whole being. It just meant he was like that before he realized his mate didn't think that shit was attractive.
"I assume you are going back to your room?" Silas called out to me as he walked out of the shower with a towel around his waist.
Fuck was Silas hot. All of my mates had the broad shoulder thing going for them, but Silas's build was so lean, it made his shoulders stand out more. I could see the definition in all his muscles, but when he looked at me and noticed I was staring, his green eyes twinkled, and a lop-sided grin formed on his face.
"It's going to be hard to let you walk out that door if you keep looking at me like that."
His shower had left his red hair unspiked and product-free. It was something I wanted to comment on how it looked better without the style he's been wearing. There were still some water droplets running down his abs, and I wanted to lick them off.
Stop that.
No, keep going.
Ugh. My wolf was not helping. She's been rolling around with glee since I gave into Silas during the heat. I think she whined about Silas saying the spell to stop me from getting pregnant, but I barely registered it because I needed all the orgasms.
"Silas, I wanted to thank you for taking care of me."
He smiled, making me nearly swoon.SWOON.It should be illegal for mates to have this much fucking power over their female.
"You're welcome. Are they bringing you clothes or are you walking up there in just my bathrobe?"
"I don't know. Your bathrobe is quite nice."
"If you take the bathrobe, you're bringing it back. That damn thing cost me a fortune. It's microfleece."
