Chapter Twenty Five “Forgive”

Damon couldn’t resist tasting me in the shower, so now- as we’re together in the bathtub I can’t even sit

up on my own. I’m leaning back against Damon’s chest with his arms wrapped around me, and his

hands occasionally gently caressing my breasts and neck.

“You have the most beautiful and perfect body,” he whispers in my ear. I smile even though I’m on the

verge of falling asleep.

“Why didn’t I know you were a dom all this time?” I ask. He shrugs slightly.

“I was scared that if I told you that you’d try out b**m, and I didn’t want you doing that with anyone who

isn’t me.”

I chuckle slightly. “Well, I guess you have me exactly where you want me.” “I most certainly do,” he

growls in my ear.

My brain snaps to alertness when I hear the faint cries of Meda in the distance, and I freeze.

“S**t! I didn’t check on Meda between scenes!” I jump out of the bath, towel dry myself off, slip on a

robe, and rush to the nursery. I’m greeted with a sight that makes my heart clench.

Erebus is holding Meda carefully in his arms, bouncing her up and down slightly. She’s visibly settling

down in his light hold.

Erebus makes eye contact with me before winking at me. The wink causes me to melt internally. So hot

Once Meda is clearly sleeping, Erebus sets her down and pulls the blanket over her. We both silently

walk out of the room.

“We’re getting cameras and a baby monitor installed tomorrow.” Erebus says, breaking the silence.

I smile slightly, as a realization hits me. Erebus really has changed.

An Alpha’s wolf is very possessive, forceful, and aggressive. And although I am very much not okay

with the fact that all three men marked me without permission, two of them by sheer force, I can see

now that it wasn’t them. It was their wolves surfacing and claiming what’s theirs.

Wolves work on a more primitive level. Not for lack of intelligence, but for a primal approach. To my

mates wolves, I belong to them. Am their property. Theirs to take care of, protect, love, mark, and mate.

So when I fought them, the wolves solution was to mark- not caring what I had to say about it.

Thankfully the moon goddess came shortly after and put all of them in line, but I can see regret in all of

their eyes.

And Erebus… I can feel regret radiating off of him. Regret for hurting me for so many years. Regret for

marking me by force. Regret for not being a good mate. And I can see him trying to make up for it. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

I can see myself being too harsh on him.

I feel his inner dominance… His wolf… begging to come to the surface and f**k me like no tomorrow.

Dominate me in every position possible. But Erebus is holding back for me. And only me.

He’s fighting his true nature. I close the distance between us, and look up into his eyes. And say three

words that I can tell he’s been waiting to hear since my 16th birthday. “I forgive you.”
