I have been starting to hope that will be the case [ Basch admits, low and tender but for once not embarrassed or ashamed. It’s clear Olivine wants him, maybe more importantly needs him.
Still the reminder that something could go wrong is enough to make his grip tighten and nearly enough to rescind his offer. But he doesn’t. Olivine proved himself strong, and with their mate bond, Basch does not think he would be able to truly hurt the other. It would be the townspeople who could be in danger. ]
You make me break my own rules, but I am not sorry for it.
[ the knot had finally loosened enough that he sighs, but used the opportunity to slide from olivine and roll the other toward him, gathering him in his arms and tucking his head under his own. ]

Thank you, Olivine.
