Eilas POV

I can feel my canines protruding through my gums and pressure building up, pushing on my bones, ready to snap them, tips of fur prickerling my skin as my wolf pushes its way out, I'm losing control, all I see is red and a want for that bitches blood to be spilled.

"Elias?"

Suddenly I'm calming down at just the sound of her beautiful, soothing voice. I turn to look at my mate in the doorway, being held up by Erin. Everything falls away, my anger and hatred vanish as I stare into her waterfall, blue sparkling eyes. Goddess I love her so much. But it's short lived thought, as I really look at her, she's so weak, so hurt. My mind races at the thoughts and images of what that bitch did to her, to my Chilli, my girl! Feeling everything start to boil up again, I close my eyes, " Control yourself!" I tell myself, "Control yourself!"

"Elias?" Her soft voice, like a whisper as her hand touches mine, opening my eyes almost in shock. I didn't hear her move across the room to me, it's

    Chilli POV As we drive Elias seems nervous for some reason, did I miss something? Squeezing his sweaty hand, "Hey, are you okay?". "Yeah, fine". He said as Erin looked at us in the rearview mirror, smiling."My driving is not that bad," she jokes, we all laugh, but Elias's is more nervous and fake. As we pull down the road of the packhouse, it suddenly occurs to me,"Erin, sorry, can we stop off at the house first, so I can grab a few bits please?" A spike of anxiety fills the car, what is going on? I ask myself. "Or maybe later them?" She nods."Lets just get home and have a sit down," Elias suggest. A sit down, thats all we've done for days, I want to run, to feel free on all fours, although, just thinking about shifting saps my energy a little. Maybe a sit down would be good. "Okay, but go for a run later?" Elias smiles and nods.The car comes to a stop outside the packhouse, where Elias's parents are waiting for us. As we get out the car, they rush to us, arms up to embrace u

    After that, we excuse ourselves from the group and head back upstairs. "Do you still want to go for a run?" Elias asks,"Maybe tomorrow," I suggest, feeling emotionally drained from the day and the news report. Later on in the evening and it's bedtime, I'm happy, nervous, excited and petrified to share a bed with my mate. A word plagues my mind, cousin, cousin, cousin! That bloody, fucking reporter has gotten in my head. Crapping hell. Running my hands into my hair, pulling at it, as I stare into the bathroom mirror, trying to regain my composure before I join Elias in our bed. A gentle knock at the door, followed by his soft, worried voice, "Chilli? Everything okay? Its just you've been in there a while". Taking a deep breath, "Yeah, be right out!" Looking down at my favourite pajamas, nothing fancy just pain, greyish shorts and an old, baggy top, which is so baggy on me now it falls off one shoulder, with a vest top underneath which had a tiny bit of lace on the neck line.

    Chilli POV As I lay in bed with him, I am lost in his eyes, I can feel his warm, minty breath on my face and skin, if we were any closer we would be touching. What's he waiting for? My blood pumping vigorously through my veins as my body longs for his. Feeling a new, weird tingling sensation south, when finally Elias moves slightly closer to me and our lips ever so softly touch, frozen in the moment for seconds maybe, then without thinking, as if on autopilot, I close my eyes and let my bodys instincts take over, trusting it knows what to do. The kissing continues still soft and gentle, as his hands move up and down, dancing over my back. As the kissing intensifies, Elias gracefully manoeuvres himself, so he is now on top of me, he did it so smoothly, it felt so natural. Our hips and joints moving as one, grinding against eachother, I can feel his hard passion for me pressing through his boxes and my shorts, rubbing me. I am so wet! I feel slightly embarrassed at how moist I feel bet

    Elias POV Once Chilli is in the kitchen and out of earshot, I turn to Erin, "okay, she's gone. Did you get it ?" She rechecks the coast is clear, before retrieving a small, square box from her bag,"Of course, when do I not deliver." She gives me the box, "so, tonights the night," smiling at me, "your finally popping the question?" Opening the box and inspecting the contents. "Yes, tonight's the night," holding the delicate ring between my fingers, "sure she'll like it?""Of course, you big idiot, she's going to love it Elias, really". Even with Erin's encouraging words, I'm still nervous, my hands are sweating, I put the ring back in it's box before I drop it. "So, your ready? What did your folks say? And logan?""They are all so excited, mother and father think it's fantastic and aprove of our plan for tomorrow. I couldn't be more ready to be with Chilli for life". I state, closing the box."Good, but that's not what I meant, I mean are you all ready for tonight, to propose? And

    The next morning is a blur as we rush to get everything ready and ourselves. Erin, the star she is, has gotten everything a bride could need and waiting for me all ready in her room. "There, how's that?" Erin asks, putting the final touches to my hair and make up. Looking at myself in the mirror once she steps out of the way and thinking, 'is that me?'. "I've kept it all very natural, very little foundation and very light concealer. With not too much blush or eye shadow, just enough mascara and eyeliner to make your eyes pop and sparkle". "Erin, it's... your..." speechless. "Same with your hair, I've kept that simple too. I've re-straightened your hair a little to give it a bit of texture on the layers and put some product in it to make it shine, sniff it, it smells like digestive biscuits," informing me, bleaming at me, so happy and proud of herself. "Chilli? Do you like it? Happy?" Blinking at myself in the mirror,"Erin, I look, beautiful." Erin laughs at me,"You were already b

    Once the crowd settles down the officiant moves on with the ceremony, " Elias, please repeat after me, I, Elias Winters do take Charlotte Burnes to be my mate, wife and future luna, in sickness and health.". Elias repeats, then my turn. "Charlotte, please repeat after me, I Charlotte Burnes do take Elias Winters to be my mate, husband and future alpha, in sickness and health". Once I've repeated it also the officiant hands Elias a ring, "Elias, do you vow to stand by Charlotte as mates, partners and husband and wife? at her best and at her worst? To accept her and trust her judgement? To love and honour her till you leave this earthly plane?" "I do". He says gazing into my eyes as he slips a ring onto my finger, perfect fit."Charlotte, do you vow to stand by Elias as mates, partners and husband and wife? at his best and at his worst? To accept him and trust him judgement? To love and honour him till you leave this earthly plane?" "I do". Sliping the ring onto his finger, as I well

Elias says as we embrace eachother and stagger off to our rooms.Once on our own, Elias suddenly scoops me up in his arms and I wrap mine around his neck as he carrys me the rest of the way and across the threshold to our little apartment, then straight through to the bedroom. I feel so safe in his arms, not wanting to leave his warmth, I look up at my man as he gazes down at me, that burning passion still alight. He doesn't need to say a word, the bond does it all for us, we open our hearts and minds to eachother, letting the other in. My hesitations gone, I no longer worry about my past, I am ready for my future, our future together.Elias places me softly on our bed, my arms

    The morning light creeping through the gap in the curtains wakes me, to find Chilli still curled up in my arms. I give her a squeeze and she purrs slightly, kissing the top of her head and inhaling her sweet scent, remembering and replaying last night extra marital activities, smiling, beaming with joy. Chilli stirs and snuggles deeper into me, "what?" She says, still half asleep, "What's so amusing?" Smiling and kissing her head again, "nothing my love, go back to sleep." But before sleep can retake us, a mouth watering smell fills our bedroom. "Yummmm, breakfast." Chilli yorns, stretching her arms and arching her back. Once washed and dressed we make our way downstairs to join the rest of the packhouse for breakfast. Hand in hand we enter the dining hall to a chorus of whoo's, cheers and clapping. Chilli clings to my arm, trying to hide her blushing face, making me chuckle at her dislike of being centre of attention. We take our seats at the main table, mother and father looking

    Elias POV I look up and watch as Chilli steps out from the en suite, wraped in just a towel, making her way towards her dressing table as I lay on our bed where I was just aimlessly flicking through my phone. Taking a seat and opening its draw, she removes a single, plastic pot housing her facial cream and unscrews its lid. It's nothing fancy, not expensive, its just a simple, none branded, vitamin E night cream.I continue to ovserve as she dips two fingers into the pale lotion and looks into the mirror, to then slowly drag said fingers down her face, starting at her forhead, gliding smoothly along her nose and then finishing with a dab on her chin. She then wipes a bit of the remainder on each cheek before replacing the lid and putting it back in its draw. My eyes are fixed to her as she slowly but firmly works the cream into her skin, taking extra care near and around her eyes. Her finger tips caress over her own face and down her neck, over my mark on her neck

    Chilli POV Perching under a tree with Chant as we take a break from sparring whislts our mates for some reason decide to chop some fire wood. I find it amusing and humble how as the alpha he likes and enjoys chopping fire wood for the pack house, no job is to small for our mighty leader.Chant's seductive eyes never leave her mate as he swings the axe up into the air, where it seems to pause for the briefest of seconds before falling down onto a chunk of wood, spilting it into two. The whole movement and process is magical, so smooth and artistic like poetry. I had watched my own mate for a time, admiring his tensing biceps with every swing, the beauty of his movements and strength of the action, but now I'm just leaning back against the tree's trunk with my eyes shut, listening to the beautiful rhythmic sound of the wood splitting, of metal against nature, somehow for some reason I find it peaceful as I smirk at the thought of Chant lustfully gazing at Jay, it al

    Elias POV That was brutal, oh my goddess do I hurt, I haven't hurt this much from training since, shit, I don't know when. Sure, I was mad and needed to work it off, but fuck me, Chilli was livid, she was masking it well, I mean, wow. My ass hurts. I had to use all my strength to stay on my feet, especially after I hit the ground hard the first few times of her kicking and taking me down. Once she swept my legs out from underneath me, my wolf instincts took over just so I could stay on my feet. I think I pulled something that time, thank the goddess for wolf healing, cos my left ass cheek and leg are killing me. With Chant now paired with Chilli and Erin and Leroy working together, that leaves me with Jay, who is as good as his mate, oh dear. I sigh inwardly as we step away from the others to train, I can spar and keep up with anyone, I'm alpha afterall, but after the beating I've just endured, I'd prefer a nice easy spar, but hay ho, lets do this. Thankfully, Jay see

    Chilli POV Finally everyone is out on the field, we can get started. I am needing to hit something. Elias insist on sparring with me first and to Erin's relief but Chant's dismay, I agree. Which just leaves the others to pair up, one of them did suggest mate paring but the guys seems a little bit wary so it's girls vs girls and guys vs guys. For now anyway. After a fairly rough spar with Elias, I finally start to calm down and release my rage, which I guess was his plan, so I don't feel gilty later now if I cause anyone else major harm. Clearly sensing this, Elias allows us to switch partners and Chant and I go straight to each other, to which the rest of the group chuckle at our predictableness. Chant and I exchange a sinister grin as the others repair up, Elais with Jay and Erin with Leroy. I mirror Chant as she raises her arms up into a defensive stance, declaring she is ready, a smile growing on her face. As we stare down on each other I am reminded of our rematch

    "You know there was no way he would accept and train with us," Leroy says once we are alone and with just our own pack members, "I know, but it was fun and satisfying to embarrass him like that, the look on his face at the mere thought of it was golden. To watch him squirm." I can't help but let out an enormous laugh, to which Chilli shoots me evil eyes for finding any of this so amusing. "What?" I chuckle at her before pulling myself together because if looks could kill. I had to laugh, if I didn't I think I would have lost it, plus it felt so good, too good to put Jordan down a bit like that in such a slight way in front of the others. However, by Chilli's facial expression, she does not agree, goddess, did I want to kill him, thankfully in a way he did say no, or we would have had a dead alpha on our hands and territory. "Come on, your telling me you didn't want a chance at hitting him?" I ask her in a teasing way, she looks at me whislt crossing her arms across he

    "I hear some incorrect information has reached the ears of my children," "Oh, and what's that got to do with us? Idle gossip is not what these meetings are for." "No, not normally, but," she pauses for the briefest of moments to adjust her tone and the ferocity of her words, "but when it comes to petty, stupid, horrible lies about my family, my children, then you and I have a problem! A big problem!" He nearly chuckles in her face as he asks half heartedly,"Pray tell what are these so called insults?""A spare heir, a baby," she lists off the tamer ones first, working up to the biggest and worst one, before she stops again as I feel a heat burning off of her directed straight at Jorden, "and an inbreed!" The room falls silent after everyone gasps and shoot death stares at the alpha. A low growl escapes from mine, Erin and Leroy throats, our protectiveness taking over. Jordan looks like he doesn't know weather to laugh or bite back."Jordan!" One of the ot

    Jordan holds his hands up in defence as I take a few deep breaths to calm myself before turning to the rest of the room to acknowledge our other guests. "Alpha Jonathan, Luna Suzie, beta Willow, sorry for my tardiness, how is Maxwell?" I ask taking my seat next to Elias, pushing my anger down for now, eyeing up Jordan in the cornor of my eye, I'm not done with you yet, I think to myself."No problem Luna Winters, father is doing well and thoroughly enjoying his retirement," he smiles with a nod of his head, which we return, "thank you for asking." Jonathan took over as alpha of the west pack two years ago with his mate Suzie and appointed Willow Steal as the first female beta of the west pack. She is a strong minded woman with a powerful right hook."Alpha Alex, Luna Ela and beta Karl, welcome and thank you for coming today," Elias smiles to the leaders of the Spring rise pack from the south, who joined our alliance about four years ago.With the greetings done and out of the way, we

    The drive to school is a pretty normal one, we talk, sing and laugh all the way there, forgetting about any and all problems the day may have already brought. Once there and out of the car, we all walk hand in hand with Marcus in the middle, through the blue painted gates."Luna," the teacher on the gate addresses me with a nod of the head, as does any other adult that comes into eye contact with me. I smile back and return their nods.Like always, even though we come to Lily's class room first, we walk Marcus around to his first at her insistence, she says its part of her job to look out for him to make sure herself she sees him to his door. It warms my heart the care and love they have for each other. As I kiss my son goodbye and he hugs his sister, I take note of the other high ranking children from other packs, sitting at their tables ready for the lessons to begin.
