By the time we make it home, Dante can hardly keep his hands off of me. I might have pushed him too far with the lingerie shopping. We didn't even get to look for that new comforter! In the end we only went to two stores after we got done shopping. Then Dante informed me that it was time to go home.We walk through the door and he is watching my ass the entire way. He reaches for me but I just take off running up the stairs to our bedroom. He chases me the but cannot quite reach me. I manage to stay about a foot ahead of him the entire way and rush into the bedroom. Before I can find a halfway decent hiding place, he walks up behind me, picks me up, and throws me onto the bed.I squeal slightly before he jumps onto the bed after me. It only takes a couple of minutes before he has both of our clothes off. He tried to rip mine until he remembered that they are some of my favorites. Instead he gets them off as quickly as he can without ripping them. Staring down at me, he gazes at me lu
The lake is absolutely beautiful. I can't believe that I have never ran into it before. It is not overly large but it is surrounded by large boulders and plants. There is even a tree off to one side that has a swing on it for the younger generations. Heck probably for the men too since Dante's eyes lit up when he saw it. "Wow this is gorgeous. The water is absolutely clear. How have I never been here before?" I say looking at Dante."I could only assume it is because it is the opposite direction from your den. You just never thought to come this far passed the pack house. Too afraid that I would catch you and keep you." He jokes."Well, considering that is exactly what happened, I think that I was right to stay away as long as I did." I joke back.He turns and chases me closer to the water. I run, jumping over boulders like they aren't even there so he has to go around them. I just laugh as I get halfway across the pond from him and he cannot manage to get any closer."What are you d
Laying on our towels on the side of the lake is quite refreshing. Dante packed us a picnic lunch that we have not gotten to quite yet. Instead, we are laying on our towels just soaking up some much needed sunlight. Soon, it is going to be getting colder out and we will not be able to do this."The lake is quite beautiful. Thanks for bringing me here." I say turning towards him."It is even more beautiful now. Not only because you are here but you did such a great job of cleaning it up. I never would have guessed that all of that trash was down there." He says."Well sometimes it happens. Sometimes on accident, and sometimes somebody is a jerk and does it on purpose. What all types of fish live down there anyways? I swear something really large brushed against my leg before coming up. Did not get a chance to see it though." I admit."Just what you saw when we were down there. There are some gar which should be the largest, although, some of the catfish that are living inside the rock f
Elle is completely flabbergasted when I tell her what we found. She wants to go back immediately to see if she can see the fish but I manage to talk her out of it. We can go back on Monday after all of our classes. Dante is going to take the teenagers to clean up the trash and make sure that the lake is blocked off before then. Even with the discovery of the lake monster, we managed to have a fantastic Friday evening and Saturday. Now, we are going to split up and make sure that everything is ready for Monday. It is much harder to get back to our usual life than I had thought it would be after only two days off with Dante."I am going to have Kevin meet me at the lake with the teenagers. I want backup in case we need to distract them from the gigantic fish swimming around in there." Dante tells me before we leave for the day."I really think that it was just attracted to me but it is really hard to say. I just see no reason why the only time it has been seen that anybody can remember
Scarlett manages to remain quiet for most of the recap of my dream. There are a few times that she tries to interject but I just hold up a hand so she waits. It is much easier to get it all out at once than it is to have to keep restarting my rehash."So, you are telling me that you are going to be our Luna and take over the Coven? That is amazing! At least you know that you already have the skills for both positions." She says sounding excited."But I do not want to be in charge of the Coven. I would rather not have to deal with all of those witches at all. They have done nothing but hunt me and my family since I was born. Why would I want to be in their Coven?" I ask her.It feels strange asking it out loud even though everybody knew how I felt about it. Dante and Elle both know why I do not want to be in charge of the Coven. I know that it has been deemed necessary but that does not mean that I have to like it. I have not been in a Coven before but it seems like a place where you c
"So how was Scarlett when you stopped by to see her today?" Dante asks me when we finally meet back up for dinner."She was doing pretty well over all. Going a little stir crazy. Apparently since the doctor put her on bed rest and Quin is gone all of the time it is only adding to her stress." I inform him."I did not know that she was on bed rest. If I had then I would have given him some more time off. I will have to tell him tomorrow first thing. Is there anything else that she is stressed about?" He asks me worriedly."Just getting stuff around for the baby. She showed me the room and there is nothing in there that is ready for the baby to be born. She has not even been able to get it painted. It won't be too much longer and she will be up trying to get it all done no matter what the doctor says." I tell him.He thinks for a little while and I can tell that he is talking to some of the other pack members through their mind link. I continue to eat in silence. We have not yet brought
Getting back to reality is extremely difficult after the weekend that we had alone. Now, the need to get back into our routine and all of our training seems depressing. We have so much to accomplish and we have no idea how long we actually have to get it done. That is all up to the witches and whenever they decide to attack again. As I head to Scarlett's house before classes start, I cannot help but enjoy the wonderful day while planning out everything that I still have to get done for the day. The sun is shining brightly which will help when we head to the lake. Will the fish show up today? Even though Dante is afraid of the connection, I cannot help but feel as if it was there for me the last time. Scarlett calls me in sounding annoyed before I even manage to knock on the door. Uh oh, what is going on with her already? She is once again on the couch and looking even less excited than the last time I was here. What could have happened already that caused her mood to turn more sour?
"Hello again Morden, I did not expect to see you again so soon." I say with false friendliness."Aw why not? I was so looking forward to this meeting. It is about time that something goes my way for once when it comes to you." She sneers back. "Oh yeah, and what might that be?" I ask her."Just what you have been refusing to do the entire time that you have been living with this pack. You are going to come with me and stay with my Coven for a few days. It is time that you learn who, exactly, I am." She says victoriously."And just how do you expect to get me to agree to something like this?" I ask her."Do you want me to have one of my sisters go and grab your pregnant little friend in there? You might be able to take some of us out but I highly doubt that you can do that while protecting her. If you want to keep her safe, then you will come with us right now." She tells me matter-of-factly.If she is right then I really do not have much of a choice. I know that I can do everything i
