It was very early Tuesday morning and they were at Connor’s house, he pulled her into his arms. "Relax darling, it is just a small tremble, nothing to be scared about".
"Tremble ? Like in an earthquake ? How can you be this calm ?" She held onto him, hiding against him. She had never experienced an earthquake before and she thought it was kind of scary.
He stroked her hair. "I lived here most of my life, I have seen this many times and even
The next couple of days actually went by fast, Ami had several interviews and it seemed like they had finally realised that nothing had happened between Josh and her.She missed Connor, even more than she would admit, mostly because she always told him to relax and now here was she, not able to be without him for a couple of days. She assumed it had something to do with her having accepted their mate bond.It helped streaming the panels she could, she loved seeing him there on stage just being himself, he was so passionate, so amazing that she couldn't help thinking that everyone had to fall in love with him instantly. And she was so proud that he was hers.
Ami had been happy about her performance on TV that morning and now she was packing up, ready to drive down to San Diego to be with Connor.She heard a low rumble, and the sound grew rapidly to a roar and she wondered if it was thunder, then it felt like the earth expanded, it was like the building got thrown up in the air before crashing back down.She felt like she got grabbed by a big hand and thrown to the ground and it held her there, the ground wasn't shaking or trembling it was writhing as if in great pain.She panicked, she knew this was very wrong, s
He was driving as fast as possible, which to him was annoyingly slow, but there was damage to the road, crashed cars, scared and hurt people and fallen debris everywhere that he had to zig-zag through. He had gotten a message from David that his wife and daughter were okay, the hotel had only suffered minor damage and he was thankful to hear that. It felt like his brain was on high speed, every thought crystal clear, every trace of fear and panic packed away, pushed to the back, which he was grateful for right now. His phone rang, it was Josh and he put in on speaker phone. "Hi Josh, how is it looking ?"
It was dark and silent and it felt like she was breathing dust, her entire body hurt, but she could move both arms and legs as much as the cramped space would allow. What had happened ? Oh yes, the big earthquake and then everything had gone black, she had been in the apartment, she had hid under the table, she lifted her hands and found that she only had a couple of inches of space above her, it had to be the table. But there were things around the table and probably on top of it too, rubble, pieces of wood and other debris and she couldn't get out. How bad had it been ?
Ami is sobbing hysterically, she is calling for help, but she gets no answer, she is lost and alone. Luckily the after shock only sent down more dust and she heard something being upset to the right, but all in all things remained the same. She tried breathing in deeply, it wouldn't help getting panicked, it would only make things worse, she had to keep quiet, and listen so she could call for help if someone came near. She just wished she had water, her throat was extremely dry from all the dust and she knew that having no water would be her first problem.
They stopped and got some water and ate some of the food after walking for two hours, not that they were really hungry and it didn't taste especially good, but they needed their energy."It is getting worse the further we get north". Conner sat looking out over the devastation, but his eyes were unfocused.Josh put a hand on his shoulder. "She is strong, Conner. She is okay, you have to keep believing".He wasn't sure if Josh really believed this, but Conner knew he said it to keep up both their spirits. He still had this feeling that he would somehow know if
Ami didn't really know if she was relieved to wake up again … or well she had to be happy to be alive, but she felt she was lying at a funny angle, it was like her balance was screwed up, and she couldn't feel up from down.Her head was throbbing, her throat was burning and she felt lost and alone, she could feel her hope seeping away.It had to be many hours by now and outside everything was eerily silent, she felt a little like she was the last person left in the world.Her body was longing to stretch, to move just a bit to get the stiffness out, but she had even less space now.
Connor had almost given up when Josh finally took a gasping breath and the blue colour started to reside from his lips, a more healthy colour returning to his face."Fuck Josh, I thought I lost you there". Connor pulled his legs up and put his arms around his knees or the left arm because the right arm wouldn't work and he couldn't hold back the tears.He knew an alpha is not supposed to cry, but Firstly he wasn’t sure he could be considered an alpha any longer, without his wolf… and secondly, right now he didn’t care.Josh coughed violently and slowly sat up, but he would hav
6 years later "Are you okay baby ?" Connor looked at her with concern across the table. They were sitting in a nice restaurant having dinner. She smiled a calm smile and put a hand on her stomach. "There was just a little bandit in here who felt like using mommy's bladder as a soccer ball". "Oh he is gonna be such a little trouble maker that one". He looked at her lovingly, his eyes so warm and soft. Amelia sent him a lopsided smile. "Yes, I have an inkling that he is going to be very much like his daddy, our little wolf cub". "Do you even know how exquisitely beautiful you are when you are pregnant ?" He grabbed her hand, squeezing it softly. She pulled a face at him. "Oh yeah, It is not like I look like a beached whale at all". "Then you are the most beautiful beached whale ever. I can't seem to keep my eyes or hands off you". He said with a cheeky wink. She arched one eyebrow. "Uh honey, that actually isn't anything new. That has never really been your strong side". He ju
"It is time, Ami". Linda stuck her head in the door and she nodded, taking one last look in the mirror. She felt beautiful and hoped that Connor would feel the same. They had landed in Denmark late in the afternoon the day before and she had spent the night at her parents house with Linda. She walked to the waiting limo and Linda helped her inside. "Oh Ami you look stunning, Connor is so gonna cry when he sees you". "Well the way his hormones are acting up these days I actually fear a whole other reaction". Amelia said giggling and Linda broke down laughing at the thought. She still didn't know where they were going, but she did have an idea and she loved Connor even more for doing this. No Hollywood glamour and paps, just their family and friends in the beautiful Danish summer. And it was an exceptionally beautiful summer day in the beginning of August with the sun high in the sky and the fields heavy with crops as they drove through the landscape. She wasn't nervous. She kne
Two weeks later "Are you okay Connor ?" Joel asked him. He was waiting aboard the private jet with Joel, his family and friends. They waited for his sister and Amelia to arrive. He had managed to keep the wedding plans a secret for her and now it was the day before their wedding. He really hoped he had made the right choice and that she would be happy. He breathed in deeply, his right hand was trembling, but it always did that when he got stressed, one of the few little reminders he still had of his ordeal. "Well I am just nervous if this is the right way to do it, if she is going to be happy". "Don't worry Connor. I am sure that it is the perfect wedding and she is going to love it". Joel put a reassuring hand on his shoulder. Then the limousine drove up next to the plane and Amelia got out with his sister. As always she looked stunning and soon she would finally be his wife, his forever. His Wolf howled with delight. He walked over to the stairs and greeted them. His sister
"Conner you have to let me leave the bed, If I am to plan a wedding". She looked at him. It was about a week later and he had practically kept her hostage in the house. Apparently it was impossible for him to keep his hands off her for more than 15 minutes unless he was sleeping. Not that she complained, so absolutely not, but they had a wedding to plan and only two weeks until the big day and that kind of demanded that she had just a bit of time without his hands and body all over her. He made a really pouting face. "Right now ? Can't it wait just for half an hour or so ?" "Conner you said that yesterday and how much did I get done ?" She asked him, arching one eyebrow. He rolled his eyes and smiled sweetly. "Well you almost made it out the front door one time". "Yes and then you had to kiss me goodbye right ? And threw me over your shoulder like a caveman carrying me back to bed". She crossed her arms and looked at him sternly. His fingers were caressing her thighs. "It wasn
"Ami ?" She heard Connor’s voice and turned towards it. She was standing in the garden in the warm evening, a glass of white wine in her hand. He came towards her from the house and she smiled at him. He was walking almost normally now and she was so proud of him, he had really worked hard. She thought he looked amazing. He had let his beard grow back out, but was keeping it short and trimmed and he was wearing a pair of very well fitting jeans and a green button down shirt, with the top buttons open. He gently took the glas from her and put it on the table. "Sweetie, I have something I want to ask you, but you have to promise to really think about it and answer me honestly okay ?" "Of course Connor, what is it ?" She looked at him wondering what this could be about. He grabbed both her hands and kneeled in front of her, her heart felt like it skipped a couple of beats. "Ami, this time I can do it right and you deserve that". "I love you above anything else and that I will alw
Josh had arrived in London without trouble, but to a big media circus. Everyone wanted to know where he had been and what had happened, and then he got spoiled by his mother, at least that was what his texts said. Connor had made a lot of progress both physically and psychologically himself, especially after accepting Amelia's help. His wolf was also a huge help and a week later he could leave the hospital to go home. They had feared coming home to a destroyed house, but he had called his father and incredibly enough his house had only suffered minor damage, which had already been fixed. When they arrived in LA the city was almost unrecognisable, of course it wasn't all back to normal, but it had been cleaned and people were rebuilding everywhere. They spend the first week returning to a somewhat normal life, talking about what they wanted to do now. Amelia wasn't longer sure she wanted to pursue a singing career. She needed some more time to think, and he had said he would supp
When Amelia woke up the next morning, she was pretty sure she still had feathers in her mouth as she had actually bitten a hole in his pillow trying not to scream. Her cheeks got heated by the memory, it had been so amazing. He really knew some tricks. Even with the situation being as it was and she knew that no matter what, she would never go wanting in that area, but for his sake she hoped he would be able to actually make love to her fully, sooner or later. She could hear that Connor was still asleep, his breathing deep and steady. He was pressed against her, one arm under her head and the other protecting around her waist, the hand resting on her stomach. One of his long legs was wrapped over her legs and she was pretty happy that she didn't have to pee, because she couldn't move at all, instead she snuggled closer to him. "Morning my love". His voice still heavy with sleep, when he nuzzled his nose against her neck, she turned her face to kiss him softly. They got up and dr
*Connor* "Baby, I was thinking if you would like to stay here with me tonight ?" Connor let a finger trail gently over her cheek, he really hoped that she wanted to stay with him. She looked at him lovingly, he loved that she was looking at him like that again. "Of course, I would love that". The bed was wide enough to fit them both, if they just stayed close together and none of them had a problem with that. After he had brushed his teeth, he stripped down to his boxers and crawled into bed. Even though not all of his feeling senses had returned, he still wanted her as close as possible. Luckily he could now feel her kisses on his mouth and neck, he could feel her hands in his hair and he could feel her soft skin and enticing curves under his hands. She came out from the bathroom and he looked at her, she was wearing one of his t-shirts, having her hair loose down around her shoulders. In his eyes she was the most beautiful and sexy just like this. "Come here my beautiful". H
"Hi Josh, are you okay ?" Amelia said as she walked into his room. It was evening and Conner had gotten hold of a hairdresser to do something about his hair and beard, so she decided to check on Josh. He smiled at her. His jaw was rather badly bruised, but otherwise he looked like himself. "Hi Ami, what have you done with Conner ?" "He is getting a shave and a haircut, thank God". She said with a small grin and sat down in the other chair. “He was starting to look like a werewolf” Josh nodded. "Well that was about time, but how is he ? I talked to the doctor, apparently he has been working really hard since the day he disappeared". "Yes he has really made progress, his legs are almost functioning normally now. He needs to keep up his sessions with the psychologist for some time, but he is a lot better and he has gotten the feeling back in his face and partially on the arms and hands". She smiled happily. Josh smiled back at her and winced, it clearly hurt to smile. "I am so happ
