Natalie's P.O.V. Training had been lacking the past week. I had been able to move more weight and do body-weight movements easier. I also got to learn some things in my wolf form, but it was harder than I had thought to get used to moving more swiftly on four legs than it was on two. Walking and r
"We can't defend her if you just disappear with her whenever you please!" He exclaimed as he gestured toward me but glared daggers at Joselin. "Down boy!" She scolded as if she were talking to a pet, and Thomas's face turned red while Tobias's hand visibly tightened on his shoulder. I watched amus

Her panting became heavier as a little moan left her sexy lips with each thrust of my hand. I knew she was close, and I continued my pace as I licked her clit. Her thighs began to shake, and I looked back up to see her eyes were slowly closing. A third finger did the trick without me having to spea
Natalie's P.O.V. It was a mad dash to get ready. Killian had been planning on meeting them at the door without me, telling them I was still sleeping as the sun hadn't risen yet, but it felt rude to do so when we were asking for their help. I slipped on a dress and pulled my hair up into a neat bun
