James As she talked, I melted into her closeness. I loved that look and softness in her voice. I wished she would look at me with such a dreamy smile. But all I got most of the time were frowns, wrinkled eyebrows, verbal assaults, or... Oh, Goddess, she was soooo frustrating me when she opened her mouth. But like this, she was the magic to be adored. - And quite many times I have concluded how much my mind has a narrow point of view or some very limited angles or ideas. And it is even with the simplest things. She kept on sharing and then turned to me. - Like when you think of the word 'forest', what is the first thing that comes to your mind? She asked. I didn't have to think long for an answer. - Definitely the forest near our house. The flush greenery of mixed trees. I practically grew up there running, playing with my friends, and going on camp trips with my family. I replied. It wasn’t only that. For my wolf, the forest was his true home. So, naturally, it was my second hom
James We walked around Red Rock Park until a path led us up the hill. At the top, we had a view over the amphitheater. It was built in between two red cliffy rocks. Laila looked around.- This is quite unique.She said impressed while nodding her head.- And a very clever idea to make an amphitheater here.She added. She turned her head and studied the cliffy rocks.- So what's the story about this?She asked, tilting her head.- It looks like there was an earthquake and the land...broke?She removed her gaze from the rocks and looked at me expectantly.- Well... A long, long time ago there was a sea here. As it dried, here stood a mountain that was eroded. Later orogeny uplift tilted the rocks to this angle.She looked at me impressed and surprised.- Very interesting.She nodded her head in approval. My wolf and I straight puffed our chests. It was so rare to receive any kind of positive feedback from her that a small comment like that made me feel like a superhero.- And I'm very
Laila I knew what he was about to do the moment the first notes blurred out of his phone speakers. And my cheeks flushed inwardly. I don't blush, remember? But the heat wave moved from my chest to the top of my head. Oh.My.God! I felt partly embarrassed for him, and way too excited, on the other hand, to see the show he was about to put on. Just poker face, girl! I kept that half smile on my face as he locked his eyes with me and made me feel as if I was watching a private show. The rest of the theater and people zoned out from my peripheral vision. I started to have tunnel vision. And at the other end of the tunnel was one hell-of-a-s*xy specimen. D*mn! Why do I already have a feeling that my joke is backfiring on me? I wasn't the only one who straight understood what he was about to do when the song came up. Other girls were cheering and some were screaming already. He swayed his hips and shoulders while slowly unzipping his leather jacket while the song beat "You can leave your ha
JamesI wanted to be like Magic Mike, but who am I kidding? I have never done anything like this. If my pack members saw this, I would never hear the end of it. Nevertheless, some girls screamed like crazy. But all I cared about was putting on a great show for my mate. Laila watched me with that half smile as if I was doing some silly dance. She didn't cheer for me or show any approval. I wanted to see lust and hunger in her eyes, but I didn't. Maybe I was too far away from her to notice these nuances. When I finished and started to walk up the steps to Laila, she abruptly stood up and decedent the stairs. She saluted me on the way when we passed each other and rushed towards the stage.When her fresh smell whooshed by me there was something very, very sweet added to it. I slowly sat down where she sat while dressing my t-shirt and enjoying her smell with additional nectar-like touch to it. It took me a minute before I realized that sweet smell was her arousal. Sh*t eating grin appear
JamesI probably wasn't in my right mind when I reached her, but I hugged her, picked her up, and spun her around. I guess I was ready to feel that she hits me and demands to put her down. But instead, she giggled. It was so cute. I put her down and beamed at her while she had a bright smile of her own.- You are amazing!I exclaimed.- Thanks!She replied and was back to her humble self while having a soft smile on her closed lips. But there was deeper appreciation in her eyes while she gazed at me.- Okay, big guy, let's hit home, so you can enjoy your sleep while your legs are dangling over the arms of the sofa.She said with a teasing smile. She still didn't believe that I would have a wonderful night.- I think that you are the winner of this contest.I said slowly. I wanted to win so badly but I had to bow my head in front of a true talent.- Well, I can admit defeat when I see one. You got the loudest cheers and deafening screams.She said with a smile. I sighed and didn't pres
JamesI was sitting on her sofa and absentmindedly scrolled through my phone. All my senses were focused on Laila. I could hear her move around, breathe, her heart rate changing its speed and heck even differentiate whether she took clothes off or on. It was as if every cell in my body was not only drawn to her but even attached to her. The moment I stepped into her apartment I was aware only of her. This was an insane obsession. I needed to cool down before my thoughts ran wild and I did something stupid. Of course, I am h*rny as f*ck and at this moment smelling her, feeling her and hearing her only destroyed my self-control like a bulldozer. I needed to shift my focus. But to what? Even my phone didn't help me.I cracked my neck on both sides. I had to stay cool. She already suspects I'm here just to get into her panties. I need to prove her wrong. I need to prove her wrong about me. I chanted in my head. But how can I do it if she is right about me? I just wanna press her against t
JamesLaila hummed while thinking about the translation.- So basically it is about that the sun comes in the yard where the house is being built with needles and.. Oh, shoo! I don't know this word.She fastly typed something on her phone. She looked at me after a moment.- Scythe?She asked. I looked at her with a blank expression.- Is that the correct pronunciation?She asked more.- Yes.I confirmed with a nod.- So, yes the house and roof were built with the help of needles and a scythe. But I think this has a symbolic meaning, but unfortunately, I don't know what exactly that could be.I nodded and hummed in response. Interesting... Her phone started to ring. Was someone calling her?- Ah, so the time is up.She said. Ok, just her timer went off.- Great. Let's eat!She stood up and went to the oven to pull out the food. I chose to remain in my place. It's not like I could help her with advice or something.- Okay, here everything looks soft enough.She said out loud after exami
JamesI didn't understand a single thing while she talked in her mother tongue. It frustrated me to no end. There was something buzzing in me and I wanted her attention. So I started to whistle and move my butt in the rhythm of the tune. My ass is great, maybe that will get her attention. I hope it did work. I tried to quickly wash the dishes so I got a chance to talk to her sister. Maybe getting closer to her family and friends would help me to win her over. It was a fat chance but still worth trying. When that didn't work though and her sister brushed me off in two sentences, I got upset. On the other hand having Laila's face next to mine so close made me want to lean to her shoulder, breathe in deeply her lovely smell, put feather-like kisses on her shoulder and see how goosebumps appeared on it and then sink my teeth in it deeply to claim her as mine. But instead, I just rubbed my cheek against her soft one and enjoyed the tingles that spread over it from the mate bond. She was an
- I could say something nice to most of the people in this room.She retorted back at him equally dissatisfied but still defiant.- Go ahead then!Lucas encouraged her with a hand gesture but slight mockery in his tone. There was a moment of silence from Laila while everyone looked expectantly at her. I was wondering will she back out of the challenge. Then she twisted her body over mine to see Alpha.- I think it is very nice of you to try to be more approachable to your pack members as you join the meals now and hang out with us here. I've heard many good things about that in the halls and the kitchen, wolves are truly happy about it.Laila said very sincerely to Alpha who nodded at her after the compliment. Then she turned to Fay and Lucas.- Fay, thank you for trying so hard to look after me when James is not in the house. I see you as my sweet little sister. I feel that your personality is still a bud, so I hope you will allow yourself to bloom into a beautiful flower and be who
JamesI entered the packhouse and my nose steered me towards the lounge area where my mate's scent came the strongest. As I approached I could already feel her through the bond and my heart squeezed in longing. I pushed through the doors and my focus was only on her. I was genuinely happy to see her as a bright smile shone on my face on its own accord, and my joy increased as Laila's features softened and a bright smile bloomed on her face, meaning she was happy to see me too. I plopped next to her not very satisfied that she was sitting on the same sofa as our unmated Alpha but I didn't make a fuss about it now. Instead, I pulled my mate closer and inhaled her fresh smell deeply until I felt dizzy. I sighed happily and pecked her lips, seeing her eyes shining at me.- Speaking of the devil...I heard Lucas mumble under his breath.- Am I the devil?I asked him back to which he grinned.- Are you gossiping about me?I asked the obvious.- He was prying into our relationship.Laila poin
Laila - Do you like it here? Kate interrupted my train of questions as I studied Fay. - “Here” as in this living room with your group, as in your werewolf community, or as in this city or country? I asked back for clarification. - As in our pack, in this packhouse. She specified. - Well, it feels like I am back in the dorms. It’s okay. I said as I saw that Kate still had questions on her face. - I guess I prefer to live in my place that is separated from everyone. It helps me to recharge and rest better. But it’s ok. I understand the reasons why James chose to put us here, so… What can I do? I’m just a guest here. I explained. - Is that how you feel? Kate asked surprised. - Yes? Was it a different reply than you expected? I chuckled nervously. I can say it again, I hate being fake but seems that people here can't take my honest replies sometimes. - Well, I guess I hoped you would say that you feel great here. Kate said sadly. - Sorry to disappoint. I said quietly. -
LailaSo this was my new life's routine. I ate meals together with the pack members, worked till evening, and then tagged along with Fay, as she came to collect me on days when James was not coming home early, which was almost every day. Most of the time I was silent and just observed and listened to others talking about pack life, their training, and some news as to who improved in sparring or who met his or her mate. Lucas and Kate usually tried to pull me into the conversations but depending on the topic it flowed or it died down.I wasn't used to being nonstop crowded and interacting with so many people all the time, and I could feel it started to strain me. The more tired I got from social interactions, the less I talked, and my answers became more clipped.As we entered the lounge room I rushed to sit in the corner next to Lucas. I was tired of always sitting next to the brooding Ayden. Fay followed me and sat next to me, pressing against my thigh as she didn't want to touch Luc
Laila - So, Laila, what do you do in your free time? Lucas changed the subject drastically, and I was grateful to him for it. I looked at Fay as we smiled, knowing we had this conversation before. On weird but perfect synchronicity, I and Fay said: - Picks fungus. - Play piano. That made Lucas turn to Fay with a frown: - Picks fungus? While at the exact same moment, Ayden turned to me and asked with a frown: - Play piano? And at the end, Fay turned her face away from Lucas to me with a surprised face: - You play piano? The perfect timing of talking made most of the people, sorry, werewolves chuckle, including me. - Wait, start with the fungus. Lucas demanded with a nod of his chin towards me. - It's nothing. In my country, we have a lot of forests, so when late summer slash autumn comes many people go and pick mushrooms. I grew up in the middle of the forest, and as mom still lives there, we do it every year. I said with a shrug. - We know all the best spots for the ch
Laila It was Wednesday evening and I was still typing on my laptop trying to finish the last things so I could wrap up for the day in half an hour or so. I knew James would be gone till late at night on another secret mission of his. I didn't know what I would do later but I didn't want to work extra just because I didn't have a plan for the evening yet. A soft knock surprised me as I looked at the doors. Who was visiting me? Did someone need something from me? It wasn't dinner time yet for Kate to come... - Come in! I shouted from the sofa hoping I left the door open. I saw the door handler bend but the doors didn't open. - Shoo! I cursed and put the laptop on the sofa while hurrying to the door. As I opened it I was surprised to see Fay standing there. - Hey! What a surprise! I said as she waved at me with a soft "Hi!". - Sorry about that! I was working and too lazy to open the door, so I hoped I left them open, but no. Sorry. I rushed to explain to her as she smiled at me
After some time, I felt his fingers opening my folds and his tongue slipped in my v*gina, making me inwardly frown. I felt his tongue coming in and out several times until I propped my body on my elbows and pulled my hips slightly sideways so he couldn't get access. - What are you doing? I asked confused but curious. - I'm tongue f*cking you! What? I saw his white teeth grinning at me as the light from the window hit him. I frowned again. - That's gross. Why would you do that? I asked, concerned. - Gross? No. You are sweet as honey, and I want to pleasure you in any way possible. He replied smiling while brushing his fingers over the erogenous zones on my thighs, making tingling sensations and distracting me. - Well, your tongue is too small and short for me to feel any proper sensation, and as I don't feel comfortable when you just did it, so can you not? When you lick my cl.it is all amazing, I love it. I tried to convince him there was no need for strange experiments. Good
Laila I was asleep until I felt the bed dip and strong arms pulled me by my waist towards a hot and rockhard chest. I sighed inwardly and relaxed. I was relieved that James was here. It wasn't easy to fall asleep on my own in this new room in the strange packhouse. After spending some hours in the library reading random book covers and indulging in a few of them, I came back to the room. I was restless, so I decided to do what I should have done a long time ago. I called my sister and told her about the new circumstances I was living in and how overprotective of my safety James was. She screamed excitedly when I confessed I was together with James. Though she was worried about me living in a close-knit community thinking I got myself involved in some kind of sect. How else could I explain the circumstances? I couldn't tell her about werewolves or the packhouse. I skipped the part about me living with James' family for two weeks because I didn't have a normal reason why I moved again.
Laila - So Alphas are the blue blood of werewolf packs, yes? I asked, changing the subject. - Blue bloods? He questioned the terms I was using. - Yeah, like the royals and kings that used to rule. The title was always passed down to the eldest son or the next one by age if the need arose, and sometimes to the daughter, if she was the only child. It's not even a question of whether the person's slash werewolf's personality or character is suitable to rule, to be the leader. It's just a birthright. I question the system again. - Yes, it is like but for us it is due to genetic abilities. Unfortunately, you are right, because there are some shitty Alphas who are everything but good leaders. Ayden supplied his answer seriously. - So, I should call you 'Your Majesty', huh? I teased him a little bit to lighten the mood. - No. He cuts me off with a dark look. My face softens and a wicked smile blooms at the left corner of my mouth. There is just something when a werewolf tells me "
