Why does it hurt so much

Ge returned the kiss. She hadn't been sure he would. After the nightmare and the fear, she realized he was everything good in her life. Everything she held onto. He had clawed her back to living, and given her a reason to want to live. She was clammy from the nightmare and adrenaline, Salt on her cheeks from tears, and he held her like she was something precious. Something beautiful.

His words were an echo of her own thoughts, her own needs. She couldn't lose another wolf. She couldn't lose him. "Never. Never. Promise me the same Inc. Incubus." She said, rolling his name across her tongue. She reached for the muzzle he had buried in her coat, going for another kiss. "Do you want me, Incubus?" She asked softly, very much needing to be wanted. She wasnt playing a game, she was playing for keeps. He had forced his way into her life, she had invited him into her home. Now suddenly, and desperately, she wanted to take another step forward.
