"When...when you love me like you did Nicki...I wanna learn how to be true mates with you. When we love each other equally." Azrial kinda gave a light smile hearing this. It made me chuckle some actually. Being true mates was a sacrifice and painful its why not many are willing to do it. But it warmed his firey heart to think someone would think about doing it. He yawned past his smile and picked Ray back up carrying him to the bed and crawled into the den on the bed. His warm body curled around his mate and snuggled him.<br/><br/>A month had past and Azrial was finally starting to sleep without nightmares. The den had grown to take up the entire bed and was full of gold trimmed red velvet pillows. Under the bed was 20 platters, cups, goblets, knives, spoons but no forks, three candle holders, and one of the kingâ€™s crowns. In the closet of the bathroom a pile of shoes with clips, buttons, and clasps are hidden. There is several sashes strands of pearls and a teddy bear. One chair sits in there as well with a red curtain and curtain holder from a downstairs bathroom. There is now also in a bottom drawer a small grouping of tea cups and round smooth stones from the garden. The egg within Ray has doubled inside and is very firm now which varies between normal temp and being extreamly hot. The nights are filled with Azrial rubbing his precious infant, and nuzzling his new mate. His own feelings are starting to soften as he holds Rayâ€™s hands often and is planning to do a moonlight ceremony with him on this night.<br/><br/>The morning sun before the nightâ€™s full moon creeped into the room as Azrial sighed softly and stretched nuzzling Rayâ€™s neck as he has begun doing at night â€œRay, its time to get upâ€ his hand rubbed the firm womb and smiled.
