Asher’s Sweet Destiny

9

Benjamin

I don’t want to even think about what Asher is doing at the base. My jaguar was trying so hard to come out, I’m grateful that Natsu is so strong headed. I just hope the other two guys got away from there. I mean that scent was so intense! Is that what Stella is going to smell like?

Turning my gaze from my food, I looked over to find her looking me up and down. Growing up I always thought Freya was the wild card..but Stella has been more bold and forward with me then Freya with Natsu. She told me a few times she’d want to try the cuddle nap thing like they do. But I’m nervous to be alone in a closed room like that with her. Yes, I want to wait…but my jaguar is another story. We are complete opposites! So I asked her if we could try cuddling on the couch first in the living room, which she thought was perfect.

I was brought back from my thoughts when she placed her hand on my thigh, “is everything ok, Benben?” She asked with a soft smile.

“Perfect, want some orange juice?” I asked her while reaching for the pitcher to fill my own cup up as I waited for her response.

“Yes, please.” Showing off her pearly whites and a dimple on her left cheek.

Filling her glass, Briella next to me raised her glass as well. Smiling at her I filled it up before placing it back down. “Well it’s time to put these little ones to bed and then get to work.” Liam said as he gets up with his plate in hand, while the little ones sleep in his dad shirt like thing. After putting his dish in the sink, he’s handed two more sleeping little ones as Nik carries three and they’re off to lay them down while Violet heads to the sink to start washing dishes.

“Sis, I’ll wash today. You’ve been on your feet way too long.” I told her, as I got up, chugging my OJ before lightly bumping my hip against hers so I’m in front of the sink.

“You boys spoil me.” She said while giving me a kiss on the cheek, before she’s off to put her swollen feet up.

“I’ll dry them.” Stella tells me as she stands so close our elbows are grazing one another.

“Why thank you.” I nudge her softly, letting her know I mean it. She scraped off all the food into the trash can, before handing them to me.

I don’t mind chores, it feels like I’m contributing to the pack and learning ways to show my mate that I’m more than happy to take over so she can rest. So once an hour of washing, drying, and making sure all the extra food was in the fridge we were on the couch sighing in relief. “I was thinking about being the extra breakfast food to Asher and Aurora. Wanna join me?” She asked, while standing back up.

“I don’t know if that’s smart..unless you're ok with walking ahead when we’re close?” That’s the only way I’m going back, I’ll keep a good quarter mile away from them.

“Sounds good, I’ll go get dressed in some workout clothes. That way we can jog around the pack a few laps afterwards.” She said cheerfully before running up the stairs.

Shutting my eyes, to rest while I wait as girls tend to take a while. I guess I fell asleep or was right there to be asleep when she lifted my chin and nuzzles our noses together “Wakey, wakey, Benben.” She giggled.

Smiling, I open my eyes. Taking in her beautiful long white hair that was braided over her shoulder, the made her blue eyes look brighter. She was wearing black leggings that hugged her legs and butt, making her pink tank top pop. Standing up, I take her extended hand. Once we grabbed the food, some silverware and bottles of water, we were off. Plus be fully clothed!

Stella

The whole way towards their secret base, that wasn’t secret anymore we talked about a school assignment that’s due soon. It’s supposed to be a presentation and I’m super nervous about it. We were supposed to pick something we’d like to change in the world. So I picked animal abuse and animal testing, which makes sense because I’m a shifter and all. He’s giving me ideas that sound really good, about why beauty products aren't more important than torturing animals.

“I should stay here, I’ll wait though.” He suddenly said, looking more stiff than I’ve ever seen him.

“Ok, I’ll be quick.” I told him while grabbing the basket of food from his hands, I have a backpack filled with more food as well on my shoulders.

Walking the rest of the way with Benji watching my every move. I loved his mossy green eyes on me, it makes me feel pretty. Taking a deep breath, I walk to the doorway ish crack like thing. Slipping in, I say “Aurora, Asher? I have food for you both.”

I didn’t get a response, so I walked in to find them breathing heavily and fast asleep. Asher was barely covering anything, thankfully he was covering his..thing though. Walking over, I gently placed the basket on the ground then slipped off the backpack, placing it beside it. Walking over to their little cubby holder, I grabbed a marker and paper. Leaving a quick note, telling them to eat and drink. I laid it on the basket, turned to find Asher staring at me. He looked like he was trying to blink out the desire in his eyes, the smell in here was purely s*x in a jar.

“Stella?” He asked while leaning up into a sitting position.

“I just brought you guys some food, make sure you eat it.” I told him while moving back to the basket. Lifting it back up, I moved it right beside him. “It’s breakfast.” I told him.

“Thank you, lil sis. I’m starving.” He said while flipping it open, “How’s Benji and Natsu? They are not too freaked out are they?” He asked before shoving a huge roll into his mouth.

“What do you mean?” I asked while watching him swallow it. Did he even chew it?!?

“Well they walked in on us, with Jackson, Otis, and Brandon.” He said the last part with a deadly growl.

“Umm, I guess ok. They didn’t mention it. I should probably be going, Benji is out there waiting for me.” I told him while sitting the backpack close to him as well. “Don’t eat all of it, Ash. Leave some for Aurora when she wakes up.” I teased before leaving the base.

I just got back in front of Benji, when he let out a growl. Pinning me to a tree, his nose against my neck. Breathing in deeply, I must smell like Aurora’s heat. Having his body pressed to mine was scary and intense all at once. After a few deep breaths of my scent he seemed to relax and pull away. “I’m so sorry, I just…the smell..” He tried explaining but I placed my finger over his lips.

“It’s fine, now let’s go jogging.” I told him, even though my insides were a puddle of goo.

Not waiting for his response, I began moving. Loving the feeling of wind blowing against my face as I moved quickly through the woods. I always start my jogs out with a good speedy run first before slowing into a nice rhythm. Benji appeared next to me, giving me smiles every once in a while. This is just heaven, being with him doing what I love.
