Gabriel's P.O.V
I was able to rearrange our schedule so I could spend most of my time with Rachel. We did our training together with the pack as well as with my dad. My mom has started discussing Luna's training with Rachel, she said I couldn't attend the training with her, making me put a little but that didn't make Rachel change her mind.
I had noticed Rachel eyeing me all day, every time I caught her eyes, she did blush a little and looked away. She was normally so confident and sassy. The bit of shyness got me curious. I felt our bond and sensed a bit of nervousness from her. I couldn't help but wonder what this is all about.
After dinner I gripped her hand and held it as we walked in companionable silence up to our room, I had moved into the room I set up for her. My clothes were in the dresser next to hers and my soap was in the shower and I slept next to her every day. Waking up next to her was better than I had ever imagined, my favorite part of the day were those moments right after she woke up and snuggled into me while she yawned and tried to wake up for the day.
After her fight with Debbie, we haven't had the time to talk about our living arrangements. She just didn't go back to her parent's home and I have also been stuck to her like glue until she told me to leave her alone. Which didn't happen often in the week she had killed Debbie, I was still a little worried about her not dealing with it emotionally but I will always be here for her if need be.
Rachel continues to eye me curiously as I pull off my shirt preparing for bed. I see her eyes flash In black I couldn't help but smirk back at her, she must have noticed as she walks slowly over to me running her hands up to my chest before linking them behind my neck, I wrap my arms around her waist, gripping her hips pulling her close until she merch into my body. She feels warm and soft against me, the sweet smell of her arousal teasing my nose begging for me to get closer.
She pushes herself up on tiptoes, pressing her lips on mine with a kind of desire I had once only dreamed she would ever feel for me, I kissed her back aggressively allowing her tongue to take control of my mouth, I groan into the kiss my body heating up as need takes over, she took a step towards me, making the back of my leg hit the bed, I let her push me down chuckling as she climbs on top of me barely breaking the kiss.
Her hips grind down onto my growing erection making me moan at the contact, she feels so good so perfect like nothing she could ever do to me would be any less than amazing. Part of me is glad we have taken so long to get to this point, we took much time to allow our bond to grow, and to get to know each other more. It makes it feel even more special in a way.
She pulls away from my lips and plants kisses down my neck, sucking and nipping at my skin until she gets to the sensitive spot her mark will be. She sucked hard on it, my body got tensed at her action, my finger gripping tight to the shirt she was still wearing, I could feel her canines growing and grazing across my skin, causing my skin to pebble and my heart to race in anticipation. I wasn't expecting this tonight and I thought she would want to discuss it with me first, but right now I don't think I'm in a position to stop her until she pulls away a little.
" I want to mark you, baby". She whispered into my ear, I groaned a little and tipped my head to rest in the crook of her neck.
" There is nothing I want more than for us to do that, sweetheart. But do you think you could wait? Just one more day?" I ask, she stopped moving and I felt a pang of pain and disappointment throughout the bond. Like she thinks I don't want her, she tries to climb off on me but I tightened my grip on her and pressed my lips against hers. I poured my love and loyalty into the kiss not wanting her to feel unwanted for even a single moment, I pulled away and looked deeply into her eyes.
" I have a surprise planned for you, but it won't be ready until tomorrow . I wanted to talk about marking each other and I wanted it to be special, do I set something up for when you are ready". I tell her and her pain turns into curiosity.
" What did you plan?" She asks and I smile brightly.
" A surprise". I say simply and she huffs at me.
" Yeah, but what a surprise?" She asks curiously.
" You will find out tomorrow, at dinnertime". I tease her and she growls a little at me.
" But I want it now". She whines and I couldn't help but chuckle. Rachel rarely acts childish so when she does it is always highly entertaining.
"You are so cute when you pout". I cooed at her, making her roll her eyes.
" Fine. I will wait till tomorrow, but I'm going to be annoying as fuck about it". She says firmly, making me throw my head back to laugh at her, pulling her up with me to the head of the bed and curling myself around her.
" I wouldn't expect anything less". I say affectionately, making her growl at me.
The next day she stayed true to her word, every five minutes she would ask about the surprise. I never thought I would enjoy going to the Luna training with my mom but today I practically pushed her out of the door and told my mom to keep her as long as she wanted. Both of my parents looked at us with affectionate smiles when Rachel came back for a goodbye kiss and apologized for being annoying.
It was absorbed, not going to lie.
After training, I hurried up to her room and picked out a dress for her to wear before sneaking into my room to shower. I wore a White button-up shirt with my sleeves rolled up, darkens, and dress shoes. I heard her knocking on the door and when I opened it she was still wearing her training, she looked at me from head to toe and furrowed her brow in confusion.
" Why are you looking so dapper this evening?" She asked curiously and I smiled before pulling her back into her room.
" You will see, now take a shower and put this on. We have somewhere to be". I tell her with a sly smile before kissing her cheek and pushing her toward the bathroom.
I waited in the entryway of the pack house, knowing that if I see her naked after her shower I would resolve and pounce on her right there and then. I had put way too much effort into this evening not to get the payoff of seeing the look on her face when she realized what I had done.
She comes gliding down the stairs her hair curled into loose waves and black strappy heels that look perfect with her light gray dress, but my favorite part is her smile, there was a time I thought she would never smile at me like that, that I would never deserve her smile that I would always have an orbit around her never allowed to get close. And now the fact that she's anxious to tell me that she has accepted and forgiven me. It's humbling.
" You look beautiful, Rachel". I murmur into her ear after I pull her close to kiss her cheek.
" Thank you, now let go". She says anxiously pulling me out of the pack house by the hand. I chuckle at her excitement and stop her as she goes toward my truck.
" We are not leaving the packed ground, sweetheart'. I tell her with a sly smile and she groans before rolling her eyes.
" Where are we going then?" She asks bouncing on her toes, I hold my arm out for her and she locks gets with mine as I walk her further into the pack house.
" This way my love. Follow me".
The closer we get to the destination, the harder my heart begins to pound. I start to second guess myself, hoping I'm not being too forward. I don't want to piss her off by accident.
" What's wrong? Why are you so nervous?" She asked, looking at me with much concern. I take a deep breath and tighten my hold on her.
" I just want you to like it, I want you to be happy, you know that right?" I asked and she smiled at me warmly before nodding.
" Yeah Gabriel, I know that when you let me leave. I always know I did come back to you ". She says her voice full of emotion, I smile and run my hand down her cheek.
" Good, then this was just good planning on my part". I say motioning to the house in front of us.
" Whose house is this ?" She asks, looking back at me.
" Our, sweetheart, it is our own house".
