Last Female Sypher and Her Brother's Friends
“I’m here.”
His heartbeat is strong beneath my ear.
Alive.
Alive.
Alive.
Behind us, I feel my other mates gather around us. They form a protective barrier around us and our bond hums, each of the strands vibrating, singing together in an intimate song of belonging.
Deep inside me the bond shifts, grows like the roots of a tree sinking deeper, thicker, stronger.
I gasp softly, pulling back just enough to look at them.
The bond between us isn’t fragile anymore.
It’s solid.
Unbreakable.
Forever.
