Avery
“Are you gonna eat that?”, I asked, starring at the fruit salad that stood, untouched, in front of Liam as he gazed at me, probably expecting me to jump out of joy after hearing what he just said.
Liam remained quiet, ignoring my questions and piercing glares through me, annoyed that I found a salad more interesting than his added information.
“Well are you?”, I frowned, annoyed by his silence. “You’re not ready.” I said when I figured he had no plans on answering my question then grabbed the plate of salad, sliding it closer to me and grabbing a fork, ready to dig in.
“You seriously don’t care?” Liam asked, watching me poke a slice of kiwi before throwing it into my mouth.
“I do. I really do.”, I admitted, chewing while poking a grape “But then I have to be real. My wolf is never going to care about me enough to accept Dylan so I’d just have to wait for her to fall for him herself and that might take a while considering how annoying he is.” I pointed out, a bit pained admitting it. “But I’m willing to wait. I just don’t want my hopes getting too high neither do I want his getting high either. It’d hurt more than it should.”, the joy I’d get when Dylan calls me his mate would be unimaginable. It’s almost too good to exist.
“So you’re not going to tell him about the possibilities? I mean. That might be a good distraction for him.”
“More like another wish added to his wish list.” I said, now stuffing my mouth with the fruit salad, chewing and swallowing almost immediately. “Let’s not forget that there’s a possibility of you being wrong. Me picking myself a mate? Pfft, That sounds too good to be true.”
“So you’re telling me that you believe that the only perk that comes with being the last luna of the white blood pack is just increased physical abilities?”
“Yeah”
“You’re dumb.” he said bluntly, taking the plate of salad away from me, probably as a form of punishment or something for thinking that way.
“I agree.” , my wolf mumbled, taking his side, causing me to sigh and just watch him, preparing myself for some kind of lecture.
“You have so many undiscovered quirks as luna. You’re superior to every other wolf in many ways. Lets not forget about the fact that-”
“That’s enough.”, I cut him off, squeezing my stomach and leaning closer to the table when I felt a sudden pain accompanied by a loud grumble from my stomach. “Crap.”, my voice shrunk as I closed my eyes, tightened my grip as I stood up. I could feel so many eyes on me. I was close to feeling embarrassed.
“Are you okay?”, I could hear the concern in Liam’s voice, as I began walking away.
“The food is fighting back.” I whispered, limping as I head for the door. I low growl escaped my mouth as I heard Liam’s painfully loud laughter as soon as I exit the building.
Such an ass
“Let’s go for the run now.” . I suggested, seeing it as the only escape out of this pain I was feeling.
“Good thinking.”, my wolf agreed, sounding as pained as I was.
Almost immediately, I found myself shifting into my wolf form with no attached pain and barely a sound of breaking bones.
“Woah!” was the first thing that came along after, before I even had the chance to check myself out the was a huge crowd surrounding me, taking too many pictures and dropping too many complements.
“Hey jackass. Nice thinking making us shift here while there were people around.”, I said to my wolf, my voice soaked with sarcasm.
“Don’t even try blaming it on me. You asked for it.”, she shot back.
“I never said we should transform now.”
“Its shift not transform. What do you think this is? Some kinda cartoon?”, she attacked my wrong choice of words, hitting the last nerve.
“Watch it.”, with that, a low growl escaped my mouth and at that exact second, the crowd went silent. The cameras stopped and before I could even look up to see what had happened, they had parted, creating a path for me.
Saying their reaction to my growl was a shock to me was an understatement. I was completely frozen and so was my wolf. I never knew we could own so much authority in just one accidental growl.
“Lets go.”, my wolf whispered, as uncomfortable as I was, slipping us out of our frozen state and making me take slow steps forward, with my eyes on a near by forest.
Not slow steps because I was in the mood and felt like walking like some kind of badass protagonist while the crowd gazed at me in awe. No no no. Slowly because I have no idea how to work my wolf form and walking any pace faster than I am right now would make me fall and completely embarrass myself.
I let out a long breath I didn’t know I was holding in as soon as I was out of the sight of the crowd and inside the forest, now comfortably tutoring myself on how to walk in wolf form. I didn’t notice myself walk deeper into the forest, now a bit far from the pack’s territory.
Normally, the problem would be fears of being attacked by rouges or even getting lost but at the moment, those weren’t possible. No rouge would be crazy enough to even look at me, talkless of attack; that’s right, the pride’s already getting to me and I could easily sniff my way back to the territory incase I got lost.
The feeling on being in wolf form was amazing. I felt so relaxed and energized. I couldn’t even get the overweighing feel of overeating like I just did minutes ago. My body felt brand new, with no impurities and no pain and part of me knew this feeling would last for a while.
“No wonder they take runs whenever they’re stressed.”, I said, increasing my pace when I was sure I got a hang of how to control my new body. Soon after, I was running, not sure to where but sure I wouldn’t be stopping anytime soon. I loved the feeling of wind hitting my face and brushing through my fur. The feeling I got every time my paw hit the floor. I loved the new feeling of every muscle movement and the sweet feeling of fresh air running through my lungs.
I’d ran for hours, forgetting so many things and only keeping the pleasure I felt in mind. I even went ahead to chase a few rouges I met around, just to scare them a bit. The bully in me definitely wasn’t dead. I could have ran off the whole day if my wolf didn’t bring me back to the world saying, “He said be back before dinner.”
I had to shift back to my human form, and find my way home.
Thankfully, my shift wasn’t like others that’d have to end up with ripped clothes. Mine worked with my clothes just making them disappear when I shift into my wolf and appear when I shift back into human.
“I still have my phone.”, I sighed in relief, feeling it dance in my pocket as I paced back home. I was too excited to tell Dylan that he’d soon take his place as alpha and that everything mate had ended between Liam and I. I could already guess his reaction to the first news. He wouldn’t be too excited about it, particularly because he didn’t have any plans of accepting extra work or responsibility but he wouldn’t have a choice for it.
For the second news, I didn’t want to guess, I wanted to see it myself. I had no doubt it’d make me more happy than I already am.
“I’m homeeee.”, I sang as soon as I hit the doorbell, feeling my heart dance as I hear footsteps approaching the door almost immediately.
He’s been waiting for me.
I couldn’t hold back a grin as the door slowly opened, blessing my nose with the sweetest scent that laid behind it.
“I actually do care about you.” , was the next thing my wolf said as the realization slowly hit me.
“Mate.”, Dylan said, lowly, opening the door fully and gazing down at my with a small smile that said a lot.
I had taken seconds to process what just happened. I completely forgot such a sweet smell could only be held by your mate.
“Mate?” my voice laced with disbelief as my eyes watered, blurring my vision a bit.
I couldn’t believe it.
No I could but I couldn’t
Dylan
As I guessed, the feeling of being called his mate was overwhelming, but nothing compared to the feeling of his skin touch mine. He held me by my arm, pulling me to him and pressing his lips hard against mine, leaving us both shocked as the an unrecognizable feeling of sparks flowed through us. His lips moved in sync against mine as he pulled me closer to him, slamming the door shut behind me and sneaking his hands under my shirt, stopping a bit above my waist.
“I saw this coming.”, he whispered as he parted his lips from mine, giving me the ‘I told you so’ look, before pressing his lips against mine again, more lustfully this time, causing me to take unconscious steps back till I was stopped by a wall.
At this point, my brain wasn’t functioning, I was drunk on pleasure. My body moved on its own, obeying every unsaid demand Dylan gave with his lips and hands.
I gasped, feeling myself get jacked up against the wall with my legs wrapped around Dylan’s waist as he explored my mouth with his tongue, stealing my breaths.
He already had my shirt off without me even knowing when. I only realized when as I felt his hands roam my body undisturbed, with the way he was moving, my bra would be gone next.
Soon he parted his lips from mine, giving me the chance to breath while he planted kisses all over my neck causing small moans to escape my lips.
“Avery.”, he growled out my name with his voice laced with lust and wants. His word held a warning, he was about to mark me.
I closed my eyes and bit my lower lip, unconsciously digging my nails into his skin as I felt his fangs pierce into mine.
I was able to hold back the groans of the pains I felt as his teeth sank into me but the moans that came with the pleasure after.
Hmph… The marked luna now. Not too bad
A/N: Arghhhhhh! Done! Finally! Forgive the shabby ending. I was in a hurry ;). I’m most likely to make adjustments later. Thanks for all the support!!!
