Embarrassed

Shadow looked at the sleeping form of Emily. It had taken a lot of effort from him and Kaiden to calm her down and make her relax enough to fall asleep.

After making sure that she was covered properly with the duvet, he left her bedroom and headed towards the living room where Kaiden was sitting.

"She will be alright, right?" He asked as soon as he noticed Shadow walking into the living room. The worry and fear in his eyes made Shadow feel bad for the man. It was the first time when he had seen his mate in such an emotionally vulnerable situation in a long time and he sure wasn't prepared for it.

On the other hand, Shadow had always been beside her throughout her journey of struggling with her past and emotional states. He had already seen her in her most vulnerable state and he also knew that she was strong enough to pull herself together and move on. The girl was way stronger than they thought.
