Leto nodded against her head, careful not to jostle her too much. Perhaps if they had been in a normal pack, Leto and Minna could have begun a sort of relationship but not here. Here, Leto could only hope to marry Minna in a month or resign himself to being her best friend and loving her from afar. His only other options were Aveline and Emily, who were nice enough in their own ways, but they weren't Minna.

The thought of another male mating with Minna made him feel sick but he didn't mention it. For now he held onto his hope. "I won't tell anyone Minna. They would probably seperate us and I don't want that." He rubbed his cheek against the top of her head gently, hating the thought as soon as he spoke it.
