Chapter 0367 | “Enzo...” I breathed, rushing toward him.
He held out his arms and allowed me to step into his warm and open embrace.
Once his arms closed around me and he held me close to his chest, I felt like I was finally home. I breathed in his glorious scent and basked in his warmth.
He ran his fingers through my hair, staring at it lovingly as it fell between his fingers.

[lifted my gaze up to his and that was when I realized I was crying. [ wasn’t |
even sure why I was crying, but tears were escaping my eyes and falling down my cheeks. His shirt had gottena little wet due to them as well, which was embarrassing.
He frowned, staring around my face with curiosity as he used his thumb to wipe the tears away.
“What is it, beautiful?” He asked gently with a timid frown.
I sniffled and forced myself to pull out of his embrace.
“Tjust missed you,” I told him, wiping my eyes with the back of my hand.
“It’s been a long few days.” “I can’t wait to hear about it,” he said, stepping closer to me and placing his | hand on my shoulder. I peered up at him and met his eyes; I saw the love
and compassion he felt for me in his eyes, and it warmed my heart.
“We were just finishing up for the bake sale tomorrow,” I told him. “Then afterward I'll be all yours.” “Good,” he said, leaning down to Kiss my lips. “I’m going to take a shower and then we can go to dinner.” He kissed me again, this time a little more passionately and hungrily. It took everything we had to pull apart and when we did, he left me breathless and red-faced. He left the kitchen, and I stared after him.

goods. The entire kitchen smelled delicious, and my mouth was watering.
“Distance is always hard on mates,” Dee said, a timid frown decorating her lips. “That’s why I assumed you'd be staying here. I knew your wolves wouldn’t want to be separated.” “I want to finish school before I settle down here,” I explained. “Enzo understands that.” “Yes, but I assumed you’d commute,” she explained with a shrug. “No big deal. But I know the longer you are apart, the more painful it will be for both you and your wolves.” My face warmed. I didn’t realize it was going to be painful; I certainly didn’t want Enzo to be in pain because of this.
When I didn’t say anything, Dee gave me a soft smile and reached her hand out for me to grasp. = “Enzo loves you very much and only wants you to be happy. I don’t mean to frighten you, but he’s been like a son to me since he was 9 years old. I want him to be happy too,” she said, just before she released my hand and continued to wrap the baked goods without meeting my eyes.
I wanted him to be happy too, but things were moving too fast. haven’t even told my parents about this yet.
“Dee...? I found myself saying, catching her attention. “Has Enzo mentioned anything about a proposal tonight?” Dee stopped what she was doing to |
stare at me, completely startled.
