“Honey, what are you doing?” Snapping out of my memories I turned around and looked up from the desk chair in our bedroom at Josie, now my wife and mother of my two children.
“Nothing much, just remembering how we met.” I grabbed her by the waist and pulled her into my lap. Before she would squirm in my lap and try to wriggle off, embarrassed about crushing me or some s**t, she wasn’t that big but in her mind she was. Now though, she knew I liked it and laid back comfortably against my chest.
“What’s the matter?” I whispered into her hair. She moaned softly when I wrapped her hair in my hand, pulling her head back and biting hard on her neck where I’d claimed her. “You like that baby?” I growled and slipped both hands under her top to grab and squeeze her breasts.
“Yes, but I came up because Blaze wants to speak with you about something,” she breathed and reluctantly climbed off me. “Alright, I’ll be down in a sec.” As she turned to leave I slapped her arse and she giggled like a schoolgirl, yeah, I loved that I could still make her blush and giggle as if we’d only just met, hell, she still blushed when I entered a room.
I went into Blazes room where he was waiting. Even though I was a true alpha, I let Blaze be leader of our pack, he had way more compassion and patience for it then me and I swear that’s how we had lasted good for so long. “What’s up?” I asked, leaning back against the wall, folding my arms. I didn’t think it would be a big deal, but when he turned to me, his face drained of colour and fear in his eyes I knew it was big. “What’s wrong Blaze?”
“It’s Angelo’s pack, the few who got away. They’re back in town and they know where we are staying. I received a letter through the door, stating they are back and they want Josie.” Now I understood his fear, it wasn’t then posing a threat as such, but Josie finding out and possibly falling apart all over again.
“Are they f*****g stupid? They really think they have the right to take her, that we’d let them?” Without a pack leader it was clear they were starting to lose their minds. “Calm down Jason, they won’t be getting anywhere near her. They believe they have a right to her as much as us because their alpha claimed her.” By claimed, he meant raped, but neither of us wanted to say it out loud.
“f*****g hell. Alright. I’ll go look around and see if I can find or smell anything susupicious.” I didn’t wait for a reply. I must have looked seriously pissed because as I made my way through the house everybody scattered out of my way, refusing to make eye contact. Good, because I was looking to kill.
I didn’t even get five paces outside when I smelt their stench. They had been here and by how strong the scent was it had been less then three hours ago, the fuckers. I went to the back of the house to strip off my clothes and shift to my wolf form. I caught my reflection in the window and saw a cream and sandy coloured wolf looking back at me. People would assume I was some mixed dog or something, thank f**k for humans and their f*****g pathetic ignorance. Padding over to the front I sat on the front porch and kept watch.
Four hours passed and it was nearing seven in the evening when Blaze came out. “Jason, come on, come inside. There’s not much that can be done until they come back and make themselves known. I don’t think it fair to tell Josie if we don’t have to.”
I definitely didn’t want her to find out, so reluctantly I agreed and shifted back before heading inside.
“Where the hell have you been!” Josie snapped when I entered the bedroom.
“Just sorting something out for Blaze. He needed me to check on a few things he’s been working on.” She let it slide and I breathed a sigh of relief and kissed her cheek. She was dressed in those damn six year old looking kitten Pyjamas, and was clutching a wolf teddy that I was pretty certain I’d gotten for the kids, but somehow when they’d gotten bored of it and left it untouched she had claimed it for herself. I smiled inwardly at my sweet child like mate and forced the lump in my throat down. It broke my heart seeing this timid, shy, innocent girl clutching her teddy and looking at me adoringly, how the f**k could anyone hurt her, tear her flesh and take her innocence? I would kill the fuckers when I found them and slowly.
Climbing into bed I pulled her to me and held her tight. “I can’t breathe,” she laughed and reluctantly I released her. I didn’t feel much like talking and she must have sensed it because she let me kiss her, take her clothes off and trail light kisses along her body before taking her long and deep, but slow and tender. I think she was pleasantly surprised because I knew she enjoyed rough and usually always gave it to her that way, but tonight I needed to be close to her, to enjoy her and know that she was mine, I wanted her to feel how much I loved her.
