"Take off your clothes," he ordered in his cool, baritone voice.
My robe slid off my shoulders and I stood in front of him naked and ashamed.

I was 20 years old, a maid.

Hybrid Alpha's Contract Bride

Leo kept his distance from me for the next couple of days. I wondered if it was as painful for him as it was for me. Now that our mate bond had been awakened and so had my wolf, I was in near agony being away from him and not knowing how he felt about me or what he planned to do with me.
