The morning after my movie date with Carter I woke up sore, but happy. It was not a bad kind of sore, though. It felt like something achy, like I had spent a lot of time working out and had stretched some good muscles. As I moved and felt the pleasantly sore spots twinge I couldn't help but smile.
While I was showering, I noticed the place where he had bitten me last night. The bruise around it was already fading, and I knew what the lines meant. He had marked me. I couldn't help but grin when I saw it.
But, I didn't want my family to see it, not yet.
I was glad that Mom had taken Katie to visit family, and they wouldn't be home until this afternoon. And that Jordan wasn't often home since he, too, had found his mate. It was just going to be me, the staff, and Daddy.
