Chapter 31- Season 2

Berenice's POV

It started as a tingling sensation, then waves of pleasure washed over me to the point where it became unbearable, which made me struggle to open my eyes which seems to be shut from eternity. I couldn't help but scream about the only person by whom I want to experience this feeling.

"Alpha!"

I managed to open my eyes as my body trembled because of the overflow of pleasure. The sight in front of my eyes was blurry, I couldn't understand what was happening.

I blinked my eyes rapidly to regain my focus.

I could feel a heavy weight on the side of my neck which felt pleasant. It took me some time to register what was happening, my mate was marking me, again!

He slowly pulled out his canines from my neck and looked at me with longing and happiness.

I couldn't help but stare at his face, taking in his features. His beautiful oceanic eyes drawing me in themselves. I wanted to just stare at them forever. It felt like a lifetime since I've been with my mate, my king.

He looked at me with so much love that I couldn't help but shed tears of happiness. He gently wiped the tears away from my face and cradled my cheek lovingly.

"You are awake." He whispered ever so slowly, like he couldn't believe it happened.

"Mate." I let out a sob and held his hand that cradled my cheek with my own.

"Shh, don't cry." He said and kissed my forehead and I closed my eyes, relishing the feeling of pure joy at the gentle treatment from my mate.

"Can you sit?" he asked me to which I replied by nodding.

He held the back of my head with one hand and supported my lower back with the other and helped me to sit straight on the bed. The next thing happened all of a sudden. My mate flipped our position and now he was sitting on the bed and I was straddling his lap.

He buried his face in my neck and took deep breaths. I did the same. I greedily breathed in his heavenly scent that I craved.

"Mate." I whimpered and nuzzled my face in his neck.

He gently pulled my head away from his neck and held my face with both his hands, looking deep into my eyes.

"I am so happy Berenice. I am so happy that you are awake." He said in his deep baritone voice. hearing him say my name sent shivers down my body.

He kissed my forehead and then peppered my face with kisses until he was satisfied.

"Thank you for coming back, my mate!" he said and embraced me in his strong arms, my body enjoying the warmth he was radiating. I wanted to stay in his arms forever.

"I missed you so much, Berenice. Please do not ever and I mean ever leave me alone like this." he said and I sobbed.

He missed me.

He cares for me.

He was miserable without me.

"I'm sorry mate." I sobbed in his embrace. He swayed us side to side, trying to calm me down.

"I promise, I will never leave you." My throat felt constricted, it felt like I was choking on my own breath.

"Calm down, Berry. It is okay. You are here now, with me. You are safe, back in my arms, that is all that matters." He pecked my head.

We sat in this position for a long time, nuzzling into each other, breathing in each other's scent. The separation too much for both of us.

"I love you, Berenice." He said, looking deep in my eyes, staring into my soul.
