Melody
"Are you okay, Mel?" Dorian's gruff voice sent relief through me. He looked worried, totally different from how he was outside.
"I'm fine," I smiled.
He hugged me and stayed glued to me for a while. "I thought....." He paused. "I thought I'd lose you."
I cupped his cheek and looked in his eyes. He was indeed frightened. My heart thumped in my chest.
I was sharing his feelings. I smiled at the realization. Looks like we are indeed mated. I am Dorian's second chance mate.
"I thought you would give in to Derek's will," his voice cracked.
I could feel his pain.
"I thought you'd leave me."
He thinned his lips and looked away from me. Probably to hide his coming tears. It wouldn't look good to see the great Alpha of Dark Flame Pack weeping.
"I thought I would never be able to hold you anymore."
He looked in the direction of my kids and looked down immediately. "I thought I would never see them again."
"Of course not," I managed to reply.
