A. F. H.’s Reviews > Claimed by her Cougar > Status Update

Sleeping?As if he could sleep when he knew she would be gone soon. He had spent every minute, every second of the night, awake and aware of her, watching her as she slept, absorbing every moment with her and letting none slip past him in case they were his last hours with her and all he would have to see him through the long, lonely centuries ahead of of him.

“The only thing keeping him sane was the fact she hadn’t left yet,had slept each night in his arms, had even kissed him once or twice when she had thought he was sleeping.

“You’re my fated one, and if you stay, I’ll want to claim you as my mate.”

“His fragile control over his instincts as a male, her male, would snap and he would shift, his need to make her stay, to remain with him. She couldn’t go. He needed her too much.
Yesterday had shown him that, their moment of madness revealing something that he could no longer deny.
Ivy was his fated female.
His one true mate.”

“Tell me what I did wrong… because I don’t understand… and I need to understand.”“Because he needed to take her pain away. It was vital, like breathing. His female was hurting, and he was sure he was the cause of it, but nothing he did soothed her, and he couldn’t make her feel better until he knew the source of her pain.”

He had barely stopped himself from dropping his face to her throat & scenting her.The need to do it had been fierce,had driven him to press his nose to her flesh & inhale her branding her scent on his soul.Had filled him with an urge to lick her nape.A need reserved for when a male found his fated one.The mate who had been made for him. A true mate.

“Only gasp like that when you’re about to get attacked in the future.”
Because it did things to him that made him dangerous.
Made him want to forget everything.
Made him want to lose himself in her.”

“His cougar side wanted her.
He wanted her.
It wasn’t going to happen. She was human, a complication, and he wasn’t looking for a female. He didn’t need one in his life.”
