I saw that Zira’s wolf was on the surface and she was heaving like she was really mad. Anytime Nina was out something or someone is either going to get slashed or hurt. Never met a wolf as fierce as her. I looked around for the culprit and only saw Isabella was looking at Zira with a shocked expression. The same as Zack's face. No one made a motion to speak. “Should I ask that again?”
”Sorry, Alpha. Everything is fine,” Zira said. Her eyes were back to it’s hazel color. She looked nervously between everyone before her eyes landed on me. What the hell did I just walk into?
“Zira, you’re…” Isabella stepped towards her but Zira held up her hand to stop her.
“Don’t want to talk right now. I just need to get home,” Zira said. She slowly walked towards, nearly falling into it. I moved but Zack beat me to the door.
“I’m leaving right now, Zira. Maybe I can give you a ride,” Zack so graciously offered.
A part of me was a bit irritated but I was glad someone was looking out for her. Just didn’t like the fact it was Zack. He always seems to appear when she’s in trouble.
“I can go with you,” Isabella offered.
“No. I’ll be fine. Promise. I’ll text you later,” Zira said to Isabella. “I’m sorry to be a bother, Alpha. The ceremony was truly beautiful.”
Zira walked out the door as Zack turned to me. “Thank you for the evening, Alpha Isaiah. It was surprisingly nice. Isabella, as always, it was a pleasure.” He placed a kiss on my sister’s hand before Victoria appeared by her side and pulled it away.
“I think I let you do more than enough today, Alpha Zack.” Victoria pulled a giggling Isabella behind her while Zack only grinned and gave a bow before leaving out the door.
I knew there was something I was missing. With Zira looking like she was about to faint and Isabella looking more worried than ever, something was wrong. I didn’t like to be left out.
“Isa, what’s going on?”
Isabella looked at Victoria before turning to me. “Well, we were standing here talking and Alaia just stormed through. She looked pretty mad. You should go check on her.”
That wasn’t the person I was asking about and she knew that. I hated when she kept secrets from me but it didn’t matter at this moment. I would get it out of her later. Right now I have to check on Alaia.
Fine. I’ll let you go this time but you’re telling me everything tomorrow, I linked Isabella as I walked away.
Following my mate’s scent I found her in my room. She was standing on the balcony looking at the moon. Her dress was laying on the floor near the bed so she stood there with nothing but a slip on. I took this moment to stare at her in silence.
She was a vision. The way her slip flowed around her made her look like an angel. When she turned to look at me I saw tears in her eyes. In the light they are more like little crystals. I was instantly by her side feeling the overwhelming need to make her feel better.
“What can I do,” I asked her desperately.
“Make my brother leave,” she said with a small smile.
“Done. He’s gone,” I said quickly, making her laugh as she wiped her eyes. “What else?”
“I keep thinking this is all a dream, Isaiah. I’ve loved so hard before and didn’t get it in return. Makes me wonder if it’s hard to love someone like me.”
“I love you, Alaia. I’m not going anywhere anytime soon. Unless you know something I don’t,” I laughed, trying to lighten the mood.
She looked at me as if she was trying to find proof in my words. I wanted her to know I would do anything for her if she asked. I wanted her to feel safe, appreciated, and loved. This urge to love her was like an everflowing waterfall. Her hand caressed the side of my face and I placed a kiss on her palm.
“The moon is beautiful tonight,” she said while holding my gaze. “It would be a shame to let a night like this go to waste, don't you think?”
It took me a second to process what she was saying with Devon howling inside my head. This was the moment he, well, we’ve been waiting for. To make Alaia mine forever. Before I could respond she started walking towards the bathroom.
“I have a bath prepared,” she said, gesturing to my suit.
Don’t have to tell me twice. I hurried out of my tux and followed her to the bathroom with only my boxers on. She must’ve had this decorated during the ceremony. The lights were off but the room was lit by candles surrounding the entire bathroom.
The jacuzzi tub was filled with white flower petals and there was a slight aroma similar to ginseng. Alaia stood smiling near the tub. Everything looked like a dream.
“We better get in before the water gets cold.”
She said this as she let her gown fall to the floor. I was taken aback of how confident she looked standing naked in front of me. She slowly steps into the tub, never once dropping her gaze from me.
Why are you just standing there Devon nagged me. Go to mate now!
**steamy content starts**
I hurried out of my boxers and joined my beautiful mate in the tub. The water was perfect, the scenery was perfect, and she was perfect. I wouldn’t trade this moment for anything. The moment I touched the water she claimed my lips. Hers were soft and her kisses were hungry. Every one turned me on bit by bit.
She guided me to a seated position as I wrapped my arms around her waist. My heart started racing as she grabbed my erection and guided inside her. A rumble vibrated across my chest as she took my full length without hesitation. Slowly she began to rock her body back and forth, creating little waves in the water.
The sight of her taking charge was intoxicating. I took her breast into my mouth, flicking her nipple with the tip of my tongue while twisting her other nipple between my fingers with a slight pull. Her head went back as small moans escaped her mouth, but I wanted more than that. I wanted to hear my name.
I looked at her and her eyes were a deep brown. It must have been her wolf Elena, because Devon was begging to take over. I held him back as I kissed her deeply, wondering when Alaia gave her wolf control. It didn't matter much to me but I did want our first time to be with one another. In this position she had all the control but this pace was slowly teasing me. I grabbed her ass and guided her up and down my shaft a bit faster.
“Mmm, Isaiah,” she growled as her lips planted kisses down my neck and back to my mouth.
There it was. Hearing her say my name with so much passion drove me crazy. Her kisses were rough and wanting. I matched her, grabbing a handful of her hair and pulling her even closer. She pulled away and nibbled my earlobe before whispering,” Faster, Isaiah.”
That was all I needed to hear. I anchored myself against the wall of the tub as I began to thrust faster into her. Her hands roamed across my body with her nails digging into my skin. I angled myself enough to stroke against her pleasure spot with each thrust. Her ragged breath turned into moans of pleasure as her walls began to tensed up. I knew she was getting close to her climax and I was ready to ride it with her.
I planted kisses down the line of her neck, sucking on the place near her marking spot. Her skin felt so smooth and she tasted better than ever. Her panting and moaning was taking me over the edge.
Mark her. Mark her already Devon growled, pacing back and forth in my mind.
I felt her convulse and tighten around my penis as a high pitched growl escaped her lips. With a few more thrusts, I sank my canines into her flesh just as my seed released and drenched the inside of her walls. Her body slumped against mine as I cleaned the wound on her neck. I held her until our hearts beat at a steady pace. Not a moment later I felt a sharp pain shoot through me as I felt her canines sink into my neck. Then a nice flow of pleasure replaced it after.

We stayed still until the water turned cold and even then my body was still warm with her beside me. I looked down and noticed her eyes were still brown. Her wolf was still on the surface. I started to wonder if Alaia was present at all during this.
What does it matter? They’re both our mate Devon said.
I know that. It just would’ve been nice to be with her I said.
At least she lets her wolf have some fun Devon growled.
I looked down at my mate and noticed her staring at me. “Elena, right,” I whispered and she nodded.
This was the first time I ever talked to her wolf. Since she’s been here, Alaia has never shifted and Devon has never communicated with her wolf. Maybe now Alaia feels more comfortable.
“The water is cold. Are you up to taking a shower instead,” I asked while stroking her hair.
She closed her eyes and leaned into my touch. “Anything my mate wants to do. I will.”
Let me out. Let me out. She wants me Devon begged.
I hesitated as I moved from the tub to the shower to prep the water. I wanted to let Devon out to meet Elena but I was afraid of him going too far and hurting her.
I would never hurt mate. You underestimate her Devon said.
Maybe he was right. If Alaia could trust her wolf enough to give her control, maybe I could do the same. When the shower was at the right temperature I went to fetch my mate from the tub. The way water slid down her body brought a wave of passion over me. We will never be able to clean ourselves if we keep this up. Before getting into the shower she stopped me.
"Mate," Elena said with hopeful eyes, "would you let Devon out for a while with me?"
Yes, yes, yes Devon howled.
"Are you sure? He can be a bit uncontrollable…"
Asshole Devon interjected.
"...and a bit hard headed," I finished.
She laughed and nodded. "Well if he responds to me the way you do I'm sure I can find something to keep him in check."
I smiled at the thought of her controlling him. If anyone could get him to behave it would be her. I stepped into the shower and held out my hand. "Ok, but the moment it's too much I'm pulling him back."
She smiled and excitedly shook her head as she grabbed my hand and stepped into the shower. I took a moment to caress the side of her face down to the mark of a full and half moon on her neck. I felt her body shiver from the touch as her arousal became apparent.
Devon…
I know, I know. Be gentle to mate he said, anxiously waiting for me to give him control.
And remember we’re humans and we need our bodies to do things other than crazy sex I reminded him.
That’s why we healed Devon said as I prayed to the Goddess to be left in one piece.
I planted a soft kiss on Alaia's lips before shrinking to the back of my mind. I watched as Devon and Elena stared at each other with lust and passion in their eyes. A look I felt I was missing with Alaia. Devon grabbed a fistful of Alaia's hair and kissed her roughly. I was about to say something but I heard the moans coming from her mouth. Can't say I was a bit jealous but happy for Devon.
This was our first real interaction with Elena. I wondered why it took this long in the first place. Why do I feel like my mate was hiding her this whole time? And why let her out now? Thoughts like this flooded my mind but quickly I got rid of them. I didn't want to ruin this time for Devon. I really wanted them to enjoy themselves.
