AmiaIf this was a dream I never wanted to leave. Warmth surrounded me and a sweet scent wafted around me. I had never once thought a scent could make me feel a certain way, but I felt held and I felt safe. The one thing I wasn’t used to feeling. I shouldn’t feel so safe, so protected, so cared for and yet I did.If this was a dream… I’d stay here for as long as I could.Even as I thought it I could feel my other senses kicking it. Even though I didn’t have my wolf yet, I felt and scented the area. There wasn’t any sun filtering through the window, no warmth from it, no smell of the trees from the woods by my house.My head was so heavy and I found it heavy to move. It was as if I was blanketed by warmth and laziness. I had this feeling that if I wanted to stay in bed all day, I could. My lips were pressed against something solid, something hard, and something wet. My bottom lip was dipped in a puddle.I mentally cringed and resigned myself to the fact that I really needed to get up.
AmiaUntangling myself from Levi was like disabling a bomb, I stayed quiet, held my breath, and moved as cautiously as possible. I’d finally made some progress and was able to try and get free now. I slid inch by inch off his chest, when his arms tightened around me and so did the grip on my cheek. I hated the audible gulp that reached my ears. I hiccuped and cursed. My heart was pounding in my chest and I tried to press my lips firmly together to stop from waking him.My heart dropped into my belly as I stared into velvet brown eyes. Of course my morning could get worse. I’d gotten caught. What had he seen? I’m at a loss for words as I feel a warmth of blush making it’s way up my neck. My face was probably bright red. This was Levi, I shouldn’t be feeling this way. Even as I thought the words, I shut my eyes. I counted as I held my breath in hopes that that hiccups would subside. When I hiccuped again, I knew it was futile and sighed. I lifted my chin, opened my eyes, and my jaw drop
Amia“I don’t want to let you go. I like us like this,” Levi teased.“Friends don’t do this,” I said.“Why don’t we decide what we do?” Levi asked.“That sounds great, I’ve been asking you to let me go, maybe we can start there,” I said.“Mm. Why don’t you tell me what it is that friends don’t do?” Levi asked.“Friends don’t spend the night in the same bed, they don’t wake up… snuggling, they don’t sit on top of the other while they lay down,” I say. My eyes dart down to where I’m seated on top of him.“I think they do. I think friends do that together when they’re comfortable together and we’ve known each other since we were in diapers. Are you not comfortable with me, Ami?” Levi asked.“You’re so good, you know that?” I asked.“Mm, no, I don’t,” Levi teased.His eyebrows jumped before he flashed me with a blinding smile. Well two could play at that game and I was tired of always losing. I straightened my back and caressed his muscular abdomen with my hands. Slowly, I made my way up
AmiaMy heart ached in my chest and my footsteps grew heavier with each step I took away from him. Putting my feelings into words was never something I did. Keeping my emotions, my thoughts, my wants, Goddess, even my needs to myself is like second nature for me. I had done everything I could to avoid eye contact when I said goodbye to him. I was scared of what I might see in his gaze.Why was it so damn hard walking away from him?It shouldn’t be this difficult to leave.I don’t want to think about how much I want to turn around and run back into him arms. I shake my head. Levi, I’m thinking about Levi. I have too much on my plate right now to be thinking about my oldest friend in this way. I shouldn’t be angry with myself for stopping him from touching me. If I stayed any longer I know he would have insisted on taking me to the Lake himself. I just needed to be alone right now. When I get to the bottom of the stairs the two people who greeted us yesterday are waiting for me. I hadn’
We swayed with the waves and my gaze trailed up his chest to his shoulder where my hand grasped. Of course the thing I grabbed on to had to be a part of his body. His lips were curved in a smile, his hair wet and dripping. I watched as droplets of water rolled down his temple. His gray eyes stared down at me playfully. I’m glad one of us was having fun right now. I released him, but didn’t sink into the water.He held my arm tightly and when I looked at where he held me he did the opposite of what I would expect. He yanked me close, so close. I could feel every inch of his body against mine and my brain couldn’t focus on anything else. My breasts were pressed against his, but he paid it no mind. His eyes darkened and his smile dropped as he lowered his head. In the shadow of the boat, I shivered, but it wasn’t from the cold.What the hell was happening?My arm ached at his grip and I arched into him as he inhaled deeply. My body shouldn’t be having this reaction to him. Up until I arr
“What? You don’t get people commenting on your scent?” Andrius asked.“Oh yeah, it’s an every day occurrence,” I joked.I was thankful Levi was human, I think I would actually die of embarrassment if he could scent the change in smell. Andrius doesn’t say anything, but there’s a rumble in his chest and a look in his eyes that has me shifting on my feet. Since he jumped into the water he has come on strong and my body has reacted. I don’t much thought into it though, he’s an alpha. They are naturally attractive and it’s natural for women and men to be drawn to them. He motions for me to sit and I take a seat on one of the many seats.“You’ve got a mouth on you,” he said.“Most people keep their thoughts to themselves,” I said.He shakes his head as he takes a seat right next to me. I hate how I watch as he leans back, his muscles rippling as he lifts his arms and crosses his hands behind his head. I hate it even more how my gaze lingers and my mouth waters. His eyes are closed as he fe
“Female?” I scoffed. “Tell me the truth,” he growled. Angry glowing eyes peered back at me. I don’t know whether to be scared or to be angry. Who does he think he is? I don’t have to tell him anything. He’s not my alpha and I don’t need to answer any of his questions. I don’t even know who he is. “I had sex with my boyfriend, Alpha. I don’t see why I would have to explain that to you,” I said. It came out more aggressive than I meant to, but dammit, my fight or flight mode had been activated. Instead of running, I lifted my chin, squared my shoulders and looked him in the eyes. His nostrils flared and his eyes flashed as Andrius tried to take the reigns. “I don’t even know you,” I said. “Kai.” “What?” I asked. “My. name. is. Kai,” he said. He inhales deeply, his chest expanding and it took every ounce of willpower I had not to drop my eyes and stare. He closed his eyes and cracked his neck. When he opened his eyes again, Kai was gone, and Andrius was back. “These bruises don’t sa
More tears threaten to fall, but I don’t feel like crying in front of this Alpha. I don’t know why I said Dylan was all I had. My truth had changed in the last few days and it was hard remembering. Dylan wasn’t all I had. I had Levi and I had Liz. I had friends that cared about me. I wasn’t alone. I wasn’t okay, but I knew I would be. When you’re in the middle of the storm, it’s hard to see through it. If I could just get through it, I had sunnier days ahead of me.“I’m happy to hear you have friends… I’m assuming the man you spent the night with… is one of those friends?” Andrius asked.He sat by my side and the guilt that stabbed at me as I thought of Levi had me mentally slapping myself. Instantly sobering me up. I stood to my feet and folded my hands in front of my chest. I don’t hear him get up, but I feel him behind me. He’s close, but isn’t touching me. I can feel his body heat radiating against my skin.“Yes, he’s one of my… best friends,” I whispered.“Mm,” Andrius hums from
