~James POV~
I and Avery were walking back to the house after our little picnic. It had been a memorable evening, though I was left with a few questions, like what it was that was eating at her. She wouldn't share, and I wouldn't pressure her to. Perhaps she'll tell me tomorrow.
We were walking hand in hand when she suddenly stopped mid-track and looked at me whilst stepping closer.
"If you don't mind, could you shift? I really want to see Blade." I was a little shocked by her request seeing as she hadn't seen me shift many times. Only once if I remember it correctly, but who am I to deny a request from my Luna?
I stepped back and removed my clothes, smirking when I saw Averys' eyes growing darker the further down she scanned my body.
Soon my love, soon.
The first time we made love was in a dungeon, the second one wasn't going to be in the woods, it was going to be in our bedroom, on our bed.
Are you ready?
'Always'
Blade took control and started shifting. When we had shifted, Blade let out a powerful roar and Avery stood still, she didn't move, she wasn't scared. We were then standing on four paws, walking towards our mate.
"Hey, Blade." Avery reached out her hand and stroked Blade's face. He nuzzled into her touch, and really enjoyed the love he was getting. Because Avery didn't have a wolf, Blade didn't get to meet his other half. I did feel bad for him, but he was happy being loved by Avery.
"Soon." Avery said in a calm yet serious manner. What did she mean by soon? Why couldn't I hear Blade?
Soon what?
I didn't get an answer, the fucker blocked me out. But I could still see Avery through his eyes, and Blade was looking at Avery with such longing, with such love and pain at the same time.
Blade pushed his snout against Averys' chest and she started scratching him behind the ears, she held his head and closed her eyes, enjoying the moment as much as Blade was.
We were back at the house now and Avery had jumped into the shower, I was removing my shirt,
Why did you block me out earlier?
'It was a private moment'
What can be so private when you can't speak with each other?
'Not yet'
THEN WHEN?
I was losing my patience with this mutt.
'Soon, and call me mutt again and I will dig your own claws into your ass'
Sorry, what happens soon? Earlier, Avery told you 'soon, what did she mean?'
'I can't tell you'
I heard the uncertainty in Blades's voice, he wanted to tell me but he really couldn't, and the only time he couldn't tell me something was when it was a direct order from Selene (The moon goddess)
I wanted to respect it, I really did, but when there were things I didn't know, there were things I couldn't control. This meant I couldn't do my job. As an Alpha, surprises were the worst things I knew.
I decided to block Blade out and focus entirely on Avery tonight. We had shared such a special moment, and I didn't want the night to end, by the looks of it, neither did Avery.
She walked out of the bathroom drying her hair with a towel and she had another one wrapped around her body. When she saw me, she dropped the one in her hands and slowly undid the other one, giving me small peeks of that gorgeous body of hers.
She was now standing in front of me, completely naked. I could tell that she was a tad bit insecure. Her cheeks were flaring up and she bit her bottom lip. She stretched her arm and opened her hand, letting the towel fall to the ground.
She was being a real tease, something that only stirred up the animalistic parts of me.
Avery took slow, long steps towards me until her body was pushed up against my own. Her nipples were stiff and her breathing ragged, she drew her hands over my chest and down to my pants, her hands fiddled with my belt, her eyes never leaving mine.
