153. Still hurting

The sun shone above the horizon yet the mates were yet to wake and leave the bed as they slept in each other's arms basking in the warmth of each other's comfort.

Darren's eyes were open but he didn't want to leave before she woke up and he didn't want to disturb her sleep so he stayed with her. He thought back to their moment at night and he remembered something that he had forgotten.

He didn't use protection when he mated her and had his release inside of her. What was more was the fact that she was in heat and the likeliness of female shifters conceiving when in the heat was near a hundred percent. He pinched the space between his brows at the grave mistake he had made. She was still young and he was ready to wait a bit longer before making a family with her.

He and Kora were not like other shifters, he was a and she, a mystic wolf, perhaps that won't apply to them. He hoped it was so.
