Exactly. He couldn't have bit a better, more understanding girl. And she was getting a pretty good deal with him. He was gainfully employed, overprotective, completely devoted to her and would treat her like a queen. He had liked Cleo before he bit her or he wouldn't have gotten in bed with her in the first place.
Colin was glad she could see that. It always scared him to show people the wolf, because he always worried they'd think he was going to rip their throat out or something because he wasn't himself anymore. People were rightfully afraid of wolves instinctually for a reason though.
Yeah, Cleo was definitely in loved with him. He was just as gangly and scruffy as a wolf as he was as a human. But if she still liked him, she could say whatever she wanted. He chuffed and cuddled closer to her as she said she knew he'd protector. Damn straight he'd protect her. In any form, from everything he could.
Then she turned into her cute little kitty form and curled up next to him and started purring again. Aww, that was so cute. He nuzzled her side gently before curling up around his kitty. Napping with Cleo was the only thing he wanted to do right now. It was just...right.
