Chapter 4
“It’s closing time, boys and girls. All of your foster parents are out in the parking lot waiting for you. Don’t forget to bring a bag of food home with you tonight and grab an apple by the door. We will see you all the next group session!” She says as she is walking and helping the younger ones with their coats.
“It’s raining outside so make sure to button your coats and put your hood on.”
As she gives directions, the lightening knocks the power out. Gasps are heard from the children.
“It’s okay guys, here I will turn my flashlight on to help. We will walk all of you out to your assigned car. Jeremy, don’t put the apple in your pants.” Giggles are now spreading through the office as we make our way to the parking lot, full of waiting parents. We give everyone a high five or hug depending on what they choose and buckle them in. We said our goodbyes and walked back to the building.
“This storm came out of nowhere.” I shouted as I tried to talk over the wind. I look up and see a building light on across the street.
“I wonder if they have generators?” I looked up to see Tori noticing it as well.
“We have all of that food we just got in and if we don’t somehow preserve it, the kids will not have food here. Some of them depend on the food we offer.” I sigh.
The sky lights up and *BOOM* Lightening hits the powerline right ahead of us. A big roll of thunder followed right after. “Whatever we are going to do, we need to do it fast. I want to get home and out of this storm.” Tori yells over the wind.
We ran to the building across from us and got under the big umbrella porch. We rang the doorbell and waited. As we are standing there, Tori decides this would be a great time to tell me that this building used to be an insane asylum. AN INSANE ASYLUM! Another big lightening strike and thunder hit.
“Tori! Why the hell would you tell me this now?? It’s a perfect time and place to, I don’t know murder someone!” I fold my arms and turn to her. All of a sudden, the door swings open and we both scream like like the girls in a horror film.
The man that opened the door is tall, about 6ft, tanned skin, glasses, brown eyes, shaggy hair, fairly fit, and looks young, maybe my age or a year or two older.
“Well, that’s surely a greeting to remember.” He says as he looks at us amused. We both nervously laugh it off like we didn't just scream at this man.
“Sorry about that. Hi, I’m Tori and this is Aphrodite." She sticks her hand out and shakes it. That is when I noticed the most beautiful blue pearl wristband. It's so beautiful I'm just gawking at it. He shakes her hand and turns to me. “Hello ladies, I’m Travis. Would you like to come in and get out of this storm?” He asks as he moves away from the door way to let us through if we choose. “Uhh, Hey you’re not like some kind of axe murderer, or crazy guy are you? Like you work here?” Tori asks nervously.
I give her the most ‘are you f**king crazy’ look I could. She shrugs at me and waits for the answer. There he goes with that amused smirk. “Well, all odds considered, you did ring my doorbell. So, if I were to be this deranged killer in this old asylum all by myself, you two would have put yourselves right in my path for such an act.” He says. We both look at each other and take a step back, he notices and laughs. “Ah, I’m just kidding, no I am not a killer, I work here. We are turning this into an apartment building. But I had you for a minute there, didn’t I?” We both laugh at how stupid we both seem right now.
We step inside to get out of the rain. It's beautiful in here, with high ceilings and red wood floors. There's several rooms being worked on right now, with equipment scattered throughout. The sight is beautiful if you know what youre looking at.
“Yea, it’s a working beauty. She’ll get there with time. What can I help you ladies with?” Travis asks.
I speak first, “We both work at Reach High and our power went out a few minutes ago from the lightening. We just got a huge shipment of food in for the kids we help, and we noticed you had a light on. We were hoping that somehow you had an extra generator we could borrow for our refrigerator? If we don’t save the food, those kids might not get a meal that day.” I hate thinking about them not at least eating with us.
“I’m glad to help.” He smiles. “If you give me a minute I will go grab one. Do you only need one? We have a couple you could have for safe keeping if you’d like?”
“A couple? As in like 2?” Tori asks, dumbfounded. Travis laughs, “Yes Ms. Tori 2 you can have. We bought more than we needed, so you guys can just take these. Plus, with boss man in works with your boss lady, we might as well help now while we can.”
“Well, 2 would be wonderful please, and thank you.” I said, flabergasted.
Travis walks up the stairs to grab the 2 generators. As we are standing there, we hear a door open behind us. I looked up to see the man from this morning standing in the doorway.
“Oh, I apologize. I was unaware we had company. How are you ladies doing tonight?” He asks both of us but he is only staring at me. That intense look I felt this morning when Brad the Douch bag was breaking up with me.
“Fine we both say at the same time.” He smirks and walks passed us. “I’m assuming Travis is here somewhere?” He looks around and see’s the man himself walking down the stairs. He is caring both with no problems.
“Do you think he’s like us? Willow asks. “I don’t know, everyone masks their sent here to keep from unwanted pests.” I reply. I’m looking him up and down because if he like me it would explain him only wearing a tshirt in 20 degrees weather, and why he is so strong. Before I can examine any further, Tori nudges my arm.
“Why are you looking at him like that, is there something I should know?” She asks, panicked. “Oh sorry, no, I was just admiring how strong he is.” I wiggle my brows.
“Hey Aiden, I was just delivering not one but two generators to these lovely ladies.” He says as he nods towards us. Aiden looks at us, no me again and smiles. “Power out over there?” He directs the question towards me. All of a sudden I forget how to speak. As everyone is looking at me, I forget words. Of course I do. Speak damn it, SPEAK!
I’m looking him up and down and I go into this weird trans-like state. All I see is him for a second. He is still staring at me with such a cocky smirk on his face. Does he know what he’s doing to me? Warmth fills my stomach and then it's filled with butterflies. I make sure to mask my scent as much as possible, I can’t afford another slip up like today in the meeting with Sam and Lisa. Why on earth is this happening to me? I finally broke away from the gaze to respond, “Yeah.” One word. That’s all I could come up with? I laughed nervously and Tori looked at me a little confused.
“Yea, our power went out when we went to get the littles to their cars to go home. We noticed the light and decided it was worth a shot at asking. Thankfully, Travis has been nothing but a gentlemen, and has agreed to help us out. Are you sure you can spare 2 generators? They are quite expensive?” She asks as she looks from Travis to Aiden.
I’m still baffled by what just happened, when Aiden speaks, “We have plenty, don’t worry about it. Here, we will take these over for you.”
“It’s ok, we can manage them, Can't we Tori?” I said a little too fast. He’s staring at me again. Why is he always staring at me? It’s so intense I can feel it with my whole body. He looks me up and down quickly and says, “No offense, but these are quite heavy and it’s storming badly. Plus, you will need us to show you how to power them on.” He says as a matter of fact. I smile and nodded, “Lead the way, then.”
As we got back to the building, Aiden and Travis helped us power them up and showed us how to work them. With the fridges up and running again, I feel I can finally relax a little. It’s still pouring outside but the lightening has died down a bit. I turned to thank them when all of a sudden I tripped over the cord and tumbled into Aiden. We both fell down, both of us not expecting my feet to stop working. I landed on top of him with a big thud. It’s so dark in here but my wolf's sight makes me see as if it were daylight. I looked up to Aiden and saw him breathing hard.
“I am so sorry, I didn’t see the cord there and I was just trying to thank you.” I hurried.
I go to get off him when I notice how big his muscles actually are. His shirt is white and is see through from the rain. He has something on his wrist but I can't see what it is. His chest is hard but also soft. I go to touch him when I realize that I am totally embarrassing myself. He is watching my every move. His eyes lock with mine for a brief second and warm chills come over me. Like little butterflies circling around in my stomach. He has yet to tell me to move, almost like he’s intrigued to see what happens next. He has had a hold of my waist from when he tried to catch me. I noticed his hands are soft and strong. He holds me so gently, almost like he is scared of hurting me. I need to get up! I stand and realize my n*****s are standing to a point. I have goose bumps where ever he touches. The warmth moved from my stomach to my P**sy, with a dull nagging ach that needed to be dealt with. I need to get up off this man, now.
“Sorry” I whisper.I cover my chest as if trying to hide the fact that my n*****s are in full view for everyone to see. I’m glad it’s so dark in here. He stands up next to me. He is so tall he towers over me. I’m only 5’5 and this man is atleast a foot taller than me. He grabs me suddenly and lifts me over the generator. The movement so quick it made my head spin. “Just to make sure you don’t trip over your own feet this time.” He winked at me. A blush formed over my cheeks.
They walked us to the door to lock up, “Thanks so much for helping us out. If Ashley and you come to an agreement, I guess I will be seeing you guys soon.” Tori says as she links her arm with mine.
“Do anyone of you ladies need a ride home?” Travis asks and Aiden looks at me. If I get into a car with that man, I will not be a v****n come tomorrow. “No, we are ok. Our cars are right over there.” I pointed to the parking lot. The rain has let up a bit and it’s just drizzling now. “Okay, well if you have any trouble with those, give us a call or come on over and we will help any way we can.” Travis is looking at Aiden confused. “Sure thing, goodnight, guys.” We wave and start walking to the car.
“What was that all about?” Tori asks as we are walking. “What do you mean?” I asked innocently.
“Oh, don’t even give me that bulls*** Aphrodite, I saw the way you were looking at him. Mr. Tall, dark and handsome, caught your eye.” She wiggles her eyebrows at me.
I rolled my eyes, “Brad just broke up with me, maybe I just needed something sexy to appreciate, ok?”
She busts out laughing. “Yea ok, I’ll give you that one. He sure could take a bite out of me, and it would leave me wanting more.” She cooes. I’m not sure why her comment bothered me so much. I just met the man today, and we had one interaction that left me wanting more. “Yea yea, okay. Go home, give ma a hug from me. Love you Tori.”
“Love you more!” She says as she gets in her car and then pulls away.
All the way home I kept thinking about the way Aiden was looking at me, his breathing was ragged like he was also thinking the same thoughts I was. The sudden warmth came over me again and settled in the pit of my stomach. Willow is going crazy in my head. Maybe with my birthday coming up soon and the mating ceremony, its possible it’s affecting my body as a whole. I never even felt this way with Brad or any other man I've dated.
I pulled up to my dark house and knew instantly my dad is not home. “Late night patrol, again dad really.” I said to myself. I was greeted with a note from Eli asking to talk to me soon about today and how sorry he was. He really is a good guy and feels guilty if he knows he has upset someone close to him. I sigh, knowing I will have to call him later. But right now I need a cold shower.
When I got out of the shower, it didn’t seem to help, I lay on my bed and tried to think of anything but of Aiden. I fail miserably. My mind keeps replaying the feel of his muscles under me. How hard but soft and inviting his chest was. His arms were around my waist and I swear I saw desire in his eyes as well. It was probably me over thinking it as I was totally consumed with nothing but him. His smell was intoxicating. I can't quite tell what it is he smells like, all I know is I wanted more.
The warmth is back in-between my thighs. The same warmth that had me wanting to take him right there in front of everyone. I can’t take it anymore. I need a release.
I just got out of the shower so I am still completely naked. I take the towel off and throw it on the floor. I start picturing Aiden, hard underneath me, waiting for me to take what I wanted.. I feel in-between my thighs and I am soaking wet. The warmth is taking full control of me as I put a finger in my p***y and take it out. I move my fingers to my swollen bud and start moving it in circles. Moans fill the room as I start to make my climb for release.
My p***y is so wet I feel it dripping out of me wanting something to fill it. I use my other and insert one finger. I gently start moving it in and out of me. Which causes me to start panting.I move my fingers in and out as hard and fast as I could while still circling my aching bud, until I feel my legs start shaking. An intense desire consumes me as all I think about is Aiden's eyes on me. Sending a perfect chill down my spine, I arch my back, about to reach my climb to ecstasy. Moving my hands in perfect sync with one another. I move them faster and harder until I scream out in a cloud of pure bliss. Wetness pours from me like never before. I am a shaking mess as I unravel myself. A cloud like daze came over me. I lay there trying to catch my breath. Thinking of the events that just took place. I am finally breathing normally again. I clean myself off and change my bedsheets. Sleepiness takes over me as I climb into bed
