Nova

Smoke from last night's fire billowed in the air, the scent of burned wood lighted my senses .. Giving off that familiarity. The sun was grasping rungs of clouds as it climbed above the horizon, casting its heat onto morning .. Drying the dew from leaves which collected during the early hours from the cool moist air. The sound of waves nearby, the water of the lake lapping at the shore carefully.

I poked my head back in the tent, lying back down under the blankets as tingles burst through the skin from my left hand. Zaryn's eyes blue as the sky met my own which were the grass he looked down on.

"Good morning." His deep voice was raspy with his first words of the day. I felt the pull to him, my skin wanting to be on his as I turned on my side to face him.

The sun cast light through the gray material of the tent, skating against the shadows. Lying on my side, my head rest inches away from his own.

"How did I get here? With you?" My own voice was thick with morning rasp as well. Zaryn looked so sensual when he awoke from sleep.. His lips swollen and eyes so bright but heavy lidded. I wanted to kiss those lips, enjoying the second kiss of my life. Our first was under circumstances I don't wish to remember.

His eyes landed on my mouth, I wonder if he was thinking the same?

"You passed out last night. So while everyone was preoccupied, I brought you out here.. Miles away from the packhouse. I keep a tent here for when I want to get away. No one comes here. Its too far." He supplied, his breathy voice... his hand running over his chest.. it was doing things to my body. A growing excitment between my thighs as i licked my lips.

I felt like I was sneaking around, doing something I wasn't supposed to be doing behind everyone's back. The feeling it gave me was a high like I've never experienced.. But it would only bring misery for me after the high wore off.

I pulled my lip into my mouth, biting it with my teeth, trying to remember what happened.

"Nova you haven't been eating. You're skin and bones... Your ribs are sticking out for Christ sake." Worry filled his blue orbs and my eyes widened a fraction, wondering how he even knew.. as I lifted the blankets i noted I was just in a large T-shirt and my panties.

Not my tshirt.

I glanced back up to him with questioning eyes.

"I changed you. You were wearing a dress." I felt his burning gaze linger on my flesh through the material of the shirt i wore. My breasts tingled from his stare.. nubs straining against the fabric. I can always feel where his eyes land.. Appreciating the view.

My lips parted, inhaling our mingled scent.. taking in deep breaths as I took in his form. His bare torso, skin so perfectly tanned.. the dips and curves of every protruding muscle as he flexed, ingrained in my memory.. I'm sure he was only in his boxers.. Being so close to his skin had mine heating up quickly. The sexual tension in the air hung thick like fog.. i needed to break away from this trance.

"What happened last night?" I questioned, my hands gripping the blankets to me as I snuggled in further, pulling them over my chest. Zaryn let out a breath, his focus returning.. eyes lifting up to the ceiling of the tent, fluttering closed.

"It seems your brother is Grace's mate. Which doesn't make sense at all." My brows furrowed. She can't be his mate. He's not an Alpha.

Before I could voice it, his semi rough hand was on my hip, sparks radiating from his touch into my lower half... My phemoral artery pulsating against my flesh as my breath hitched.

Our eyes met in one breif moment. Enraptured in each others scent. Our lips parting in sync, he pulled me close, rotating me so I was now on my other side facing away from him. His hand slid over my other hip and further down to rest on my abdomen, pulling me into his naked chest.

My pulse thumped. This wasn't right.. but it was. I wasnt going to stop it. My body hummed in a current synchronized with his.. pulsing as one.

I sighed, feeling more relaxed than I have been in a very long time. The shards of my heart took a pause from attempting to dislodge themselves from my body.. They retreated and sat still. The safe sensations he gave me.. the blissful satisfaction had my muscles uncoiling... The electricity from his touch so pleasing to me.

His warm breath came out in puffs on the back of my neck. He was straining himself yet letting go. His nose pressed into the side of my neck, inhaling as i angled my head to give him better access.. my teeth holding my bottom lip hostage. Once his nose touched my skin, i felt his lips soon follow.. kissing the soft flesh there slowly... his tongue darting out tasting my skin .. teeth coming out to nibble.. he teased the flesh.. his tongue trailing a line to that spot. That spot a mark could be placed.

I felt chills all over my body, my wolf relishing the feeling of our mate touching us... being near. A small gasp came out of my mouth and i felt compelled. I pushed my ass into him, feeling him hard against me while his arms encircled my waist.. one over and one under my sides, pressing my hips into him further.. my neck angled for him to keep ravashing with his mouth and teeth. To keep tasting. My mouth opened.. a mewling sound id never made before, rolling out of my throat..

The arm under my side came up, his hand moving up my body as he pressed his scent into me.. both of us inhaling the others pheremones.. I felt that hand skim up my shirt, touching skin as i gasped.. his hand still moving, up between my chest.. closing in delicately around my throat.

He was holding me to his body as if he never could let me go.. the hand around my neck showing me he was dominant.. that he was strong enough but could be gentle as well. My available arm reached behind me as i breathed heavily, hand feeling his muscular hip.. needy fingers tracing his V line.

I was right. He was only wearing boxers.

A low rumble came from his chest, vibrating into my back and my insides. My wolf was purring in satisfaction at his approval.

I knew what i was doing was wrong but i couldnt stop myself.. The pull was too great even though I was thinking of Grace and the pup she carried only moments before...

My wolf was blocking it out of my mind, forcing me to focus on the feelings, first hand. Sometimes you just can't overpower your wolf. Sometimes its impossible even though you're still in skin form.. The wolf sees her mate and wants what's hers.

Zaryn's greedy mouth was still sucking, licking and tasting my neck as i moaned, wiggling my hips into him. He released his gentle hold on my neck, sliding his hand down my torso till he came to the hem of my shirt. He then moved that hand up over my hip, taking the shirt with him as he moved. fingertips skimmed over the lace band of my thong, my waist and slowly brushed over my ribs as he moved the shirt up, my chest heaving in anticpation the entire time.

He paused. taking the time to gently stroke my ribs, fingers sliding to the front to graze the dip below my breast but never touching me there..

A whimper followed by a moan came from my lips which he responded to with a low growl.. Soothing. The ache between my legs was so strong.. Begging me to revel in his touch.. Let him savor me.. Make me his.

He pressed himself into me, he seemed harder now, strong against my rear. Warm breath came to my neck once more followed by his tongue.. Tasting me. His wolf growled low, forcing mine to surge forward. I turned in his arms, my shirt bunched up, still covering my breasts but my stomach exposed. my wolf peeked out.. her eyes looking into the eyes of Zaryn's wolf. Her mate. They had taken over our minds, pushed us to the back to enjoy themselves in our skins.

I felt everything.. Everything she felt, I felt and visa versa... I just couldn't take control of my mind. She was in charge right now.. but i was there too. The sexual tension was too much for me to handle which allowed her to surface.. needing to feel her mate.

His wolf's eyes.. gold liquid, staring into mine before a hand cupped the side of face, lips pressing into mine as he took me, rolling me to my back gently and placing himself snugly between my legs. Strong arms like steel cables covered in flesh, caged around me. Defined muscles protruded from his skin, under my palms as I snaked my hands down his torso... Feeling him. His tongue danced in my mouth, Exploring me as he leaned down into my body.. Joining his hips into mine. I spread my legs wide, accommodating his width.

His kiss was powerful.. Filled with desire and demanding. It was as if he was trying to put his scent in my mouth with his tongue.. Making sure no crack or crevice went untouched. Passionate. His breath mixing with mine as we devoured each other.

I growled low into his kiss, my hand going into his hair, feeling the silkiness of it. Moaning, I angled my head for him so he could taste me, all of me. His hand caressed my jaw before cupping it sweetly, thumb on my cheek with fingers splayed behind my ear.. His wolf was enjoying this.. His wolf had a sweet side to him.

He nibbled on my lower lip a little before plunging his tongue back into my mouth.. Pleasure filled my body, arousing me more as I pushed up into him... Meeting his thrust.
