Oscar:
I felt her stir before she even opened her eyes.
The slightest shift of her body against mine was enough to pull my attention away from the phone in my hand.
I didn't hesitate... I locked the screen, set the phone face down on the bedside table, and wrapped my arm around her waist, drawing her closer until her back fit perfectly against my bare chest. My other hand was still under her head, careful and instinctive, like I was afraid even the smallest wrong movement might wake her too abruptly.
Her eyes stayed closed, but I knew she was no longer sleeping.
I lowered my face into her hair, breathing in the soft scent of her shampoo - the familiar clean and faintly floral scent, one that belonged to her. My nose brushed along the side of her neck as I inhaled again, deeper this time, and my wolf stirred immediately.
Alert. Possessive. Warm.
Mine.
