but being
knotted together was a bit of a problem.
"I can wait a month," Ryan said as
he settled down on the pillows and let his tension drain away, "although I
should probably warn you that I plan on fucking you every day until then."
Wesley laughed softly. "And every day after, for the
rest of our lives. Is that okay with you?"
"Absolutely," Wesley whispered.

Four
weeks later…
How was it possible that Wesley was nervous
now? Yeah, he'd dreamed of this night for many years, and he'd planned and
fantasized and imagined it so many times that the reality was bound to be
disappointing, but he'd never guessed he'd be nervous.
"You okay, pup?" Maggie asked.
"I'm fine," he lied even as he
watched his lover, soon to be official mated partner, stride across the
clearing on his way to the alpha.
Maggie gave Wesley a knowing smile and
tilted her cheek, demanding a kiss and quick hug.
"He's a lucky man, Wes."
"I'm the lucky one," Wesley said
even as he felt a blush creep up his throat.
"That too," Maggie conceded with a
smile. "I'm very glad to see you happy. I admit to worrying when—"
She cut off her words and gulped in a deep breath. "But that's in the
past." She nodded decisively as if she'd made some sort of decision.
"You're good for each other."
"You should have stayed out of it,
Maggie." Wesley was actually a little surprised that he had the balls to
say such a thing to the matriarch of their pack. Her husband and son might have
treated her poorly, but they'd never tolerated disrespect in Maggie's
direction. Noah wasn't a big fan of it either. Everyone knew Maggie had a heart
of gold, even if her methods were occasionally intrusive.
Wesley opened his mouth to quickly
apologize, but snapped it shut when he realized Maggie was grinning widely.
"Like I said, pup," she said,
reaching up to pat his cheek, "you're good for each other."
"Thank you, Maggie," he whispered.
"I hope I can make Ryan happy."
The elderly woman winked at him slowly.
"You already do."
And then Ryan was moving toward him, the
grin on his face one of pure joy.
"Everything's set," he said,
pulling Wesley into a quick, tight embrace and breathtaking kiss before
releasing him to work on removing his clothes. "Run for me, baby. When I
catch you I planto claim you in
front of everyone."
Wesley couldn't stop the wide grin that
curved his lips.
He'd never even thought of that. Werewolves
loved to run, to chase, to conquer, and sometimes even to submit to a stronger
wolf. His wolf half nearly vibrated with excitement. Somehow, even after years
of dreaming of this moment with this man, Ryan had gone and made things more
perfect.
"I love you, Ry ,"
Wesley said, lifting onto his toes to kiss his lover.
"I love you too, baby." The slap
on his ass shocked him, but as always it aroused him as well. "Now run for
me, Wes, because I definitely want to catch you."
He nodded, grinned at Maggie, and then
changed into his wolf mid-leap—yeah, he'd been practicing—and then ran into the
forest with the man he planned to love for a lifetime hot on his heels. He was
loved and in love and soon to be officially claimed.
Nothing could be more perfect.
