It was the first time we had been sent out of town together. I noticed Natalie the day she started. She reminded me of a girl I had a serious crush on in high school: short, about 5'2", brunette, and somewhat athletic. She has a cute shyness about her and an unpretentious way of dressing. That always appealed to me more than the skinny, boyish models or six foot tall amazonians that seem to appeal to the rest of the world. We are both married, and I'm not the cheating type, so I never made a move. However, I always knew that if the opportunity presented itself, I would not be able to resist. We arrived at the hotel at different times, but we had already agreed to go to dinner, so when she called me around 7:30, I went down to the lobby. She had changed a simple denim skirt that fell about three inches above her knees, a cotton top which she left unbuttoned to just above her bra, and a pair of strappy wedge sandals that made her legs and feet look great. Not the world's sexiest outfit, but until this point I had only seen her in much more conservative, business attire. Getting a peek at her soft b-cup breasts and more of her legs suddenly made this trip just a little more exciting. Still, I wasn't really expecting anything. We drove downtown and walked around for a while before finding a nice looking place with a view of the city square. We split a bottle of wine and had a nice meal, talking about all sorts of things for more than two hours. During desert, the conversation shifted. She was having trouble with her husband. He was in a highly competitive law school program and wasn't doing well, so he spent almost 18 hours a day studying—even missing their anniversary for the second year running. She told me she wanted kids, but since she is already mid-30s, she was afraid she never would at this rate. It was never vocalized, but I got the distinct impression that her needs weren't being met by her husband. Emboldened by the wine and the frank conversation, I started making little moves—leaving my hand on the table close to her, moving my leg so that her leg would brush mine now and then. Little, awkward moves made by someone who hasn't dated for over a decade. She didn't shut me down, and after the first contact, she didn't stop brushing my leg with hers. When dinner was over, I took her gently by the small of her back as we walked back to the car. When I helped her into the car, she didn't bother to pull her skirt back down. While we drove back to the hotel, I had a hard time keeping my eyes on the road with her nearly bare legs next to me. It was clear she noticed my difficulty and was enjoying it. I don't know what it was, maybe the wine, maybe something else, but Natalie had changed from the shy, reserved person I knew into a much bolder, overtly sexual woman. My room was on an upper floor, but as if there were any doubt, she proclaimed her intentions by yanking me off the elevator on her floor. However, when we reached her room, neither of us was exactly sure what to do next. It was a suite with a large couch in the sitting area and a king bed and a nice bathroom. She walked over to the couch and sat, so I sat next to her and she swung her legs onto my knees. I slipped her sandals off so I could start rubbing her feet. Starting with her toes, I slowly moved up her calves. She said, "Those shoes hurt my legs. Dig your fingers in." I obliged and massaged her calves very hard. She arched her back against the arm of the couch, emphasizing her perky breasts and flat stomach. I started running my hands up her thighs, eventually grabbing both sides of her left leg with my hands. She parted her legs just a little to allow me to reach higher as I massaged her upper thigh. Eyes closed, she dropped her right leg to the floor and bent her left leg, allowing me to see the little, sheer black thong she was wearing. I took the opportunity to massage her bare ass. Lifting her other leg, I grabbed both cheeks and pulled her towards me. Her skirt and shirt rode up, exposing her stomach to me. With one motion, I pulled her thong off to find something I didn't expect to find under her conservative clothing and shy demeanor. She had just a small strip of short hair over otherwise completely bald lips. Never one to waste the opportunity to get close to a bald pussy, I began kissing the back of her legs, working my way down to her ass and began teasing her by brushing my lips and tongue lightly against her bare lips. If there was any resistance to what we were doing left in Natalie, it was gone now as she let her legs fall open to give me full access. I decided to tease a little and make her want it before I gave it to her. I kissed all over the inside of her thighs, on the outside of her lips and on her pelvis, but never opening her up until finally she grabbed the back of my head and pushed my mouth directly over her clit. I obliged by pushing my tongue past her lips and tasted her for the first time. Tasting a woman for the first time is a treat for me. I hear a lot of men don't like it, but I love it, and I resolved that her first orgasm with me should be from my tongue. With her hands still holding my head tight into her, I licked her for all I was worth. It didn't take long before she moaned and clenched her legs around my head in her first orgasm of the evening. She released me and I moved up, planting kisses on her pelvis, navel, stomach, and still covered breasts on my way to her mouth. Reaching her soft lips, I gently parted them and she slid her tongue into my mouth briefly before pulling back and saying, "Let's go get cleaned up before the next act" with a mischievous little grin. Standing up, I pulled my shirt off, kicked off my shoes and started pulling off my pants. Natalie paused on her way off the couch to give my cock a quick kiss before stripping off her remaining clothing and walking towards the bathroom. I followed her, mesmerized by the swing of her tight, naked ass. As she bent over to turn on the water, I ran my hand over her ass, slipping my thumb into the crack and brushing her asshole lightly. She straightened and whispered up to me, "Make sure to clean that well" with the same mischievous grin she had given me earlier. We climbed into the shower and she grabbed the soap and began rubbing my chest with the bar. It wasn't long before she started to clean my cock and balls with the soap. Her hands moved with confidence and tenderness. She spent much longer cleaning my cock than was absolutely necessary and I had to grab the walls to steady myself. After the water rinsed off the soap, she knelt down in front of me and took my cock into her mouth as she soaped up behind my scrotum and my ass. Her mouth was amazing. She sucked softly before pushing forward to take me down her throat. I didn't want to stop her, but I knew that if she made me come now, I would be useless. She handed me the soap and turned around to stand up slowly, rubbing her ass up the front of my legs. She's so much shorter than me that her ass only just reached my cock, but she wiggled her ass as my cock bounced across her cheeks and giggled, "I'm ready for my cleaning." I began to rub the bar of soap around her buttocks, working up lather before setting the soap aside and using my hands to scrub her crack, asshole, and pussy. I stroked her from clit to asshole several times before slowly sliding the tip of my finger into her cute little brown hold. "So, you're after my asshole?" she asked. "Yes." "Just as well, I don't have any birth control, and I think I'd like a cock in my ass." I still couldn't believe what was happening; I would never have thought I'd even talk to her about anything personal, and now I had my finger in her ass and she was asking me to fuck it. We rinsed off and toweled the water off each other's bodies. My cock was rock hard at the thought of sliding it into her tight, virgin asshole and she paid special attention to it, taking it in her mouth and teasing my balls with her fingernails. I had to flinch away from her to avoid shooting my wad right then. The anticipation was definitely getting to me. She looked disappointed when I stopped her, but she knew what effect she was having on me, and she was clearly enjoying that power. On the way to the bed, she stopped at her suitcase and pulled out a tube of lubricant saying, "I bought this so my husband could fuck my ass, but he thought it was gross. I don't know why I keep it with me all the time, but I'm glad I have it now." "And so am I." "Just one more thing I want you to do first—loosen up my asshole with that sweet tongue of yours." With that, she slid her finger down my jaw and into my mouth before standing on her toes and kissing me, hard. She grabbed the back of my neck to pull herself up, and I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her up into me, my cock pressing against her stomach. I'm not sure how long the kiss lasted. I ran my hands across her firm, athletic ass and she wrapped her legs around me and pulled herself higher. My cock slipped down her pussy and under her ass. She smiled as she teased me my sliding back and forth across my cock. I lowered her onto the floor and she turned around to kneel on the edge of the bed with her ass in the air. The thought of licking her ass made me stop to think for a moment, but the sight of that beautiful brown hole and the thought of my cock inside of it made me throw caution to the wind. I lowered my face to her crack and spread her ass cheeks. After one quick lick between her pussy lips, I moved up and circled my tongue around her asshole. She jumped and squirmed a bit and moaned, "Don't stop." as I started to push my tongue inside her asshole. I felt her clench a little, so I slid two fingers into her pussy to try and loosen her up. With two fingers working in and out of her pussy and my thumb rubbing her clit, she loosened enough for me to slide the tip of my tongue into her asshole. "Use your finger." she breathed back to me as she rocked her hips back into me. With my other hand, I slid my index finder slowly into her tight hole. She took is easily, pushing her hips back onto my finger with a little squeal of pain. "Too much?" I asked her. "No, it feels even better than I thought it would. Use some lube and fuck me with your fingers." I dribbled a few drops out of the bottle onto my finger and pushed it back in. With the extra lubrication, it slid in easily, so after a few strokes, I slid in two fingers, very slowly. The second finger was harder for her to take, so I moved down and licked her clit to help her relax. Suddenly, and without any warning, she screamed out loud as an orgasm rocked her body. I grabbed her hips to keep my tongue on her clit as she shook for what must have been a full minute. Sometime during this, the two fingers in her ass managed to slide all the way in and I started slowly fucking her with them as her orgasm subsided. I could tell she had to rest for a while after that powerful and unexpected orgasm, so I paused for a few minutes and let her recover. "I think I'm ready; lie on your back." she finally said, grabbing the lube off the bed. After stroking the lube onto my cock, she straddled me and guided my cock towards her asshole. With the tip of my cock pressed against her ass, she slowly backed onto it. After a bit of a painful moment for both of us, the head of my cock popped into her asshole. Just then, I looked up at her and saw her face contorted in the most exquisite expression of pleasure and pain I've ever seen. It took her a few minutes to relax enough to move, so I just lay there watching her face shift from pain to pleasure. She bit her lower lip and smiled down at me as she started rocking her hips back and forth just a little, slowly driving my cock deeper and deeper into her ass. Eventually, she was sliding my cock nearly all the way out and then plunging back onto it. Then, something amazing happened. She committed to taking my cock all the way into her ass and sat down on it with all the force she could muster. My cock must have hit her g-spot because she kept repeating "Oh, yes!" over and over every time she forced my cock deep into her ass. I had heard it could happen when fucking a woman in the ass, but I'd never seen it before. The feeling was amazing. She had loosened considerably, but the sensation of my cock working in and out of her hot, little asshole was simply indescribable. I couldn't take it anymore, and with her breasts swinging above me as she drove herself onto me; I came deep into her ass. She reacted by rocking back and drove me deeper as she, too exploded with one last orgasm before collapsing onto my chest, not bothering to pull my cock out of her. After a few minutes just lying on top of me trying to catch her breath, she repeated over and over, "I had no idea, I had no idea..." "You had no idea about what?" "I had no idea a cock in my ass could make me come so hard." With that, she slid off me and quickly went to sleep with one leg and arm still wrapped around me. Sleep for me wasn't far behind. Natalie Ch. 02 The next day was Sunday. I had been angry at my company for sending me out of town on Saturday for a job that didn't start until Monday, but waking up with Natalie's naked body wrapped around me changed all that. Last night had been so frantic I didn't get to pause and admire her body, but as the sun streamed in the window with her still asleep next to me, I got my first real opportunity to admire her. She was still lying with her left leg over me and her head resting on my shoulder. I used my fingers to brush her dark-honey colored hair to my face. It smelled like the garlic from her dinner last night. I ran my hand down the smooth, pale skin of her back and on down past her ass and across her leg. Her skin felt soft and smooth and was very near the color of ivory. She started to stir a little and a little smile curled her lips as I moved my hand back up the front of her leg and on up to cup her left breast with my hand. Her breasts are small but firm—just the right size to hold in my hand. Her nipple responded quickly to my gentle pinch. She has perfectly formed nipples that are always fun to suck on and play with. She woke up slowly, shaking the sleep out of her head and brushing her hair off her face. Once she was fully awake, she looked up at me. "Hi," she breathed sleepily. "Hello," I responded smiling. "Hmm," she squirmed her rear a bit. "Would it be vulgar of me to tell you I like how my ass feels thoroughly fucked and with your cum dripping out of it?" "Not at all. As long as it's not vulgar for me to tell you I loved fucking your ass and want to do it again," I smiled back and pulled her closer to me to plant a kiss on the neck. She giggled and smiled at me. After a few minutes, she asked, "What do you want out of this?" "Lots of sex. Seriously, I'm not interested in breaking up our marriages, but things have been pretty cold at home for a while now. I still love my wife, but I need some good, meaningless sex." "Good, I was afraid you'd fall in love with me just because I let you come in my ass." We talked for a while longer about where this was going. We were both in the same place in our lives: too busy to maintain our home lives, away from our spouses for weeks at a time, and in serious need of a good fuck. I suggested we stay in for the day, but she said she had other ideas and headed for the shower. I was starving, so I headed to the kitchen. This was one of those hotels that does your shopping for you, and we had ordered our groceries ahead, so I started some coffee and some eggs I found in her fridge. As the eggs were finishing, she walked in with a towel wrapped around her waist, brushing her wet hair. "Have I told you yet how sexy you are?" I asked as she sauntered up to me and I wrapped my arms around her waist. "No," she said, cocking her head to the left and smiling. "But you can say it again if you want. But first, go get yourself a shower. I have plans for us today." Wondering what she had in mind, I headed to the shower to clean off last night's fun. When I got back to the kitchen, she was sitting on a chair, naked except for the towel she now had wrapped around her head, sipping a cup of coffee. Admiring her body, I sat down and started eating my eggs. As I ate, she ran her foot up underneath the towel I was wearing to stroke my balls and cock with her toes. With a playful look in her eyes, she said, "So, I found a few interesting places for us to visit today." "Really, like where?" "Well, I want to feel this," squeezing my now hard cock with her toes, "in my pussy, so I need to take a trip to a pharmacy. And, I want to pick up a few toys to try out. We got a few weeks here, might as well make it interesting." After finishing breakfast, I threw on some clothes before going to my room to move my things down to her room. She had put on a red top with spaghetti straps, matching red flat sandals and a long, flowing white wrap skirt. She looked so beautiful—I felt truly unworthy. I walked over to her and pulled her up to me so I could kiss her. We headed to the pharmacy where Natalie convinced the pharmacist to give her a diaphragm by telling him we were on our honeymoon and she had forgotten it. It's amazing what a man will do for a pretty woman willing to flirt a little. While she was doing that, I picked up some food I intended to eat off Natalie later—like chocolate syrup and whipped cream. The nearest adult store was at a truck stop 45 miles out of town, so we headed that way. It wasn't the classiest place I've ever seen, but they did have anything we could want, and since it was just mid-morning on a Sunday, the place was still pretty empty. At the door, she handed me a stack of cash and told me the game she had in mind. "Use this money—and only this money—to buy whatever you need to act out any of your fantasies on me. I'm going to do the same, and every day we're in this hellhole of a town, one of us gets to have their dreams come true. And don't hold back; I'm up for anything—absolutely anything." Before walking away to do her own shopping, she reached down my shorts to give my cock a quick squeeze, leaving me standing there with a dumb look on my face wondering where this sex-crazed woman had come from. I walked around for a while looking for some ideas. It's not like I didn't have a few ideas already; I'd just never been put on the spot like this. Did I really want to reveal all my secrets to her? After about 15 minutes of aimless wandering, I decided that yes, I did want to. I would never have a chance like this again. 25 days with a gorgeous woman who said she was willing to do anything. I grabbed a few of the usual toys I'd seen in various porno flicks but never actually tried—an assortment of dildos, a penis-shaped vibrator, butt plugs in various sizes from "why bother?" to "holy shit!" and some anal beads. She liked it in the ass, but so did I. I've never wanted to be with another guy, but I did thoroughly enjoy a finger up my ass while being sucked off. I wanted to explore that a little more. I also grabbed a leather cock ring, a strap-on, and some body paint. I found some toys for daytime use as well—a remote control clitoral stimulator, a remote control vibrating butt plug, and a pair of crotch less thong panties with a bulbous anal stimulator. It looked like every time she moved, it would rub her asshole. In the clothing section, I found some giant platform heels. The shoes themselves weren't exactly my style, but they would raise her up about six inches, hopefully allowing me to take her from behind standing up. I also found a nice slutty schoolgirl uniform. I had some teacher-esque clothing with me, maybe a little teacher's pet role playing for one night. I also found an Alice in Wonderland costume I had seen at a Halloween party a few years back. It came complete with a short, poufy skirt, tight blouse, stockings, and a pair of black heels. It was exactly what Alice would have worn to meet the Queen of Hearts—a slutty, nymphomaniac Alice anyway. I saw a pair of his and hers matching short kimonos. They looked like they'd barely cover her ass and the cut in front was clearly designed to show off cleavage, even when fully closed. The his kimono looked like it stood no chance at all of hiding my cock—perfect for post-coital lounging. I didn't know what Natalie was picking up, but I did catch a glimpse of her in the aisle with bondage toys looking at something on the bottom shelf with her hand in her crotch, clearly masturbating right there in the store. She stopped when she saw me looking at her and winked at me. "So, Nick," she asked when we were back in the car, "did you find what you wanted?" "Yes, and judging by the five bags you hauled out of there, so did you." I looked over at her, smiling. She had flipped open her wrap around skirt and was running her hand up her inner thigh. I reached over and ran my own hand up to her crotch and started rubbing her through her panties. Pushing her panties aside, I ran my middle finger down her slit and into her before pulling back out and using the lubrication to rub her clit. "Do you like my shave job?" She asked as she raised her right leg to give me better access. "Very much. There's something about a shaved pussy that just makes me want to eat it all the time." "Hmm, good. That tongue of yours is amazing. You're going to be spending a lot of time down there. I expect you'll help me keep it trimmed?" She undid my shorts and pulled out my cock. "Have you ever shaved this?" she asked running her fingers through my pubic hair. "No, I haven't." I said nervously. The idea of a razor blade down there didn't sound so great right then. "Well, you will, today. You like eating bald pussy, and I would like to suck and fuck a bald cock. But first, there's something I've always wanted to do in a car." With that, she lowered her mouth onto my cock and started to suck. Before this, she'd just teased me, but this time, she was sucking with purpose. She began by kissing and licking the head of my cock, but it wasn't long before she started taking me into her mouth gently and started bobbing her head up and down. Driving while getting a blow job isn't easy. I recommend finding a straight road. She took me all the way into her mouth, and I could feel her gag slightly before she pulled back, keeping her lips sealed around my shaft and sucking hard. She repeated this a few times before starting to bob up and down, fucking me with her mouth. Her technique was amazing. She would pull almost all the way off my cock before plunging back down and jamming my cock in her throat, all the while, keeping pressure on it with her tongue. I'd never had a blow job like this. She was kneeling on the seat, so I reached behind her and started fingering her pussy while she sucked me off. This only quickened her pace and soon, I told her I was about to come. She reacted by sucking harder and faster until I exploded in her mouth. Natalie moaned with pleasure and wiggled her ass so my fingers would rub her clit while she eagerly slurped up all my cum. My orgasm had made me lose track of my driving and I was snapped into reality when the tires hit the rumble strip. I had to jerk the wheel back. Natalie giggled and sat up, looking at me. She had a drop of cum coming out of the corner of her mouth. "Will you get this for me?" She asked. I raised my finger up to wipe her mouth, but she held my wrist back. "Nuh uh. Use your tongue." I'd never tasted my own cum before, but I wasn't about to turn her down. I licked around her mouth and then kissed her passionately. It tasted like nothing I'd ever tasted before. Not pleasant but not unpleasant either, and because it was in her mouth, it was an amazing erotic taste. She held the kiss for a couple miles but kept her head tilted so I could see to drive. When the kiss broke off, she reached down and re-buttoned my shorts just as we reached the town. "Did you like tasting your cum in my mouth?" "I did." I said, smacking my lips as if I'd just tasted a fine wine. She laughed at me and said, "Let's find a place for lunch. I have a feeling we're going to need our strength this afternoon." Natalie Ch. 02 Here is chapter 2 I hope it is a good read. Thank you all that read chapter 1 and commented. I appreciate your feedback. * I parked my car a block away from Natalie's house. I was going to sit outside and just watch in my wolf form to make certain that nothing and nobody got near my mate to cause her any harm. I walked to the back of her house and undressed in the darkness. After transforming I laid down and watched. It seemed that all was quiet inside so I decided to doze a little. I was just about sleep when I smelled a group of humans. They were coming around the back of the house dressed all in black. My hackles immediately rose. How dare anybody think they could get away with breaking into my mate's house. These men would die tonight! I watched as they picked the lock on the back door and I waited for the alarm to sound. I heard nothing. How could she not have an alarm system? I waited for them to go inside before moving from my hiding place. I transformed into my hybrid so that I would be able to be more agile as I moved. They were spreading out into the house. Two men made their way up the stairs. I went into a rage. I dispatched the two men down stairs by breaking their necks. I didn't want to alert the other two to my presence. I crept my way up the stairs and heard one of the men telling my beautiful Natalie to not make a sound. He was threatening to cut her throat. The other man suggested having some fun before taking her to "him". The man holding Natalie was about to say something but before he could finish I had struck breaking the neck of his friend and was moving towards him. He screamed and pressed the knife harder to Natalie's throat. I transformed into my human form then and spoke. "If you hurt her your death will be so much worse then your friends. I promise you that I will make you suffer long for any harm done to her. If you let her go I will make your death very swift." "What the fuck are you man?" "I am a werewolf and you are holding my mate. A werewolf male will move heaven and earth and even hell to protect our mates and right now you have a knife to my mates neck. I promise you that I will crush you were you stand if you don't release her NOW!!" The intruder made no move to release her so I struck. I grabbed his throat and squeezed. I watched as his eyes bulged from their sockets. I continued to apply pressure as I spoke "Remove the knife from her throat." I applied more pressure as I saw a trickle of blood begin to run down her neck. "REMOVE THE KNIFE! DO IT NOW!" He dropped the knife and I yanked Natalie away from him. I held onto his neck as I laid her down on the floor near my feet. She seemed to be in shock but I needed to deal with this person first. "Why are you here and who sent you?" "I can't he'll he'll kill me if I do." "I'll kill you if you don't. Right here. Right now." "His his name is Vincent and he says the girl is his. He works for the new firm that her company just bought. That's all I know I swear. I don't want to die please. I'll do anything. I told you I told you." That was the last thing I heard him say. I broke him neck and then turned my attention to Natalie. She was shaking and staring into space. I was so concerned for her. I picked up the phone and called Caiden. "Caiden speak" "I need you and some other beta's over at Natalie's we have a situation." "Please tell me you didn't do anything stupid." "If by stupid you mean killing four intruders that were here to kidnap Natalie for someone named Vincent then yes I did something stupid." "What the hell?" "Yeah, I took care of the intruders, Natalie is in shock, and I need someone to do a check on this Vincent. He works for a company that Natalie's firm just purchased. Get here quick because she's not looking well." I hung the phone up and turned my attention to my mate. She was shaking so hard her teeth were chattering. I grabbed her blanket off the bed and wrapped it around her then pulled her onto my lap and began speaking soothing words to her. After nearly 10 minutes of her not calming down I decided to put her to sleep. I placed her on her bed and grabbed the phone. "Caiden." "Where are you?" "Pulling up out front right now." "Come through the back, the door is open. I don't want to leave Natalie." "Ok." Once they came inside I gave Natalie's care to one of my mated betas and went out back to get my clothes. Once dressed I made my way back into the house and gave orders for the clean up and removal of the dead men. I retrieved Natalie and went to my car. Once she was inside and strapped in I jumped in and sped my way towards the estate. My wolf was rolling around and happy, I, however, was scared shitless. How would she react to me after seeing my hybrid, would she even remember? How would she feel waking up in my house, in my bed? At the thought of her being in my bed my dick was extremely hard and painful. Being in this enclosed space with her scent being so strong was messing with me in the worst way. I wanted this woman like no other woman I had ever encountered. I was going to test my limits with this one. Pulling up to my house with Natalie with me felt so right, well except for her being in an induced deep sleep. I quickly exited and ran around to the other side to unstrap her and then gently eased her out. I was going to get her settled into my rooms and then call the pack doctor to have a look at her to make sure she was ok. As I walked to the front door an omega met me with a questioning look on her face. "Call for the doctor and have him to meet me in my suite." The doctor treated the cut on her neck and assured me that she would be fine when she woke up, scared but fine. I decided to sleep on the sofa in my room so as not to put myself into too much temptation and finally feel into a deep sleep. Natalie What the fuck happened last night? I didn't drink that much wine to have the headache from hell. I tried to sit up so I could go to the bathroom and as I looked around I realized two things. One this was not my bedroom and two there was a strange and very large man asleep on the sofa. Slowly the events of my night began to reveal themselves to my conscious mind. There were men in my house. One had even tried to kill me. There was also a man beast thing that changed into a whole man. I suddenly started to panic. Where was I and who were those men and why was I here in this room with that large man? I moved towards the doorreally slowly and quietly so as not to wake him. I had just put my hand on the door knob when I heard a deep and sensual voice. "Mo mhuirnin where are you going?" I was terrified and started looking for a way out. I saw a door and could only hope it was the bathroom. I made a break for it running only to find that the large man was on my back before I could get inside the room. "Don't run from me Mo mhuirnin. It is not good to run from me. It causes me to want to give chase and conquer." "OOOOkay. Please please don't hurt me. I I'm sorry for running I'll do whatever you say just please don't hurt me." "Mo ghra I could never hurt you. It would be like doing harm to myself." "If that's true then let me go." "I am sorry I cannot do that." "Why?" "I am sure that you have questions and I am only too happy to supply the answers, but first may I have the doctor come to evaluate you and then maybe some breakfast." "No, I want answers." "I know mo ghra, but first I have to make sure you are strong enough to receive those answers. I promise if the doctor gives the ok then I will answer all of your questions and anything else you would have me do." Was he flirting with me? He is fine. Damn he's huge. 6'7" at least. Even his hair flowing around his shoulders is sexy. Look at those kissable lipS. Beautiful dark eyes and that chest is a muscled road map. Even in the lounging pants I could see his muscular thighs and what the hell is that? Is that his dick, it's huge. Wow it just got real hot in here and I suddenly feel dampness between his legs. As I a perusing this male specimen I notice his nostrils flaring like he was smelling something. I snapped back to myself and asked. "I remember men in my house last night and a beast thing. Was I dreaming? Why am I here?" "Mo ghra I will answer all your questions as soon as the doctor gives me the ok. I promise." "What's with all the mo mhurim and mo grah stuff?" "It is mo mhuirnin and mo ghra. It means my sweetheart and my love in gaelic." "Gaelic? My sweetheart and my love. Why are you calling me that I don't know you." "All will be explained in due time please allow me to call for the doctor first." I relented and allowed him to call the doctor because I knew I wasn't going to get any answers otherwise. The doctor gave me a clean bill of health and said it would be good for me to eat something. He also said I should take some aspirin for the headache, but I don't take medications so I would suffer through. After breakfast I waited patiently for Mr. hey I didn't even get his name. "Ok first things first, what's your name." "I am Conall Faol and you are Natalie Coldwell." "How do you know my name?" "I did some investigating last night." "Who were those men and what did they want with me? How did you end up there? What was that beast thing your dog?" "Those men were there to kidnap you for someone named Vincent. I was nearby when I saw them sneaking around your house so I came to investigate. No that was not my dog that was me." I studied her face for any signs of fear, but only saw disbelief. "Right you expect me to believe that you can transform into a big man beast thing. Okay who put you up to this Ronnie? Is this her way of paying me back for not going out with her last night?" "I assure you that I am not joking. I am what you humans call a werewolf and you are my mate." She literally feel over laughing. I knew that telling her this way was a risk and that I could possibly scare her but what was I going to do. I had to believe that the mating pull would win in the end. "Ok," she said between her peals of laughter, "ok show me." "Mo ghra I don't think you are ready to see my wolf just yet it may cause you some distress." "Nope. I can definitely say that I will not be distressed because you will not be turning into a wolf." "Remember I did try to warn you," I stated as I removed my lounging pants and stood before her naked. I was surprised to see her blush as she saw my cock. I was not erect, but as it is with all werewolf males, I am very large. With that I allowed my wolf to take charge. My bones reshaped themselves, my muzzle grew, my ears grew and finally my fur covered my new canine frame. The look on her face was priceless. I could see the disbelief at what her eyes were showing her, the fascination at seeing something that she thought was just make believe. The fear because I was a very large wolf and something else that I could only guess as being wonder. I slowly moved towards her making eye contact the whole way. When I reached her side I sat and laid my head on the bed next to her hand trying to convey that she could touch me if she pleased. I was surprised to feel her hand moving through my fur. It felt so wonderful. Then she spoke "Change back please." I pushed my wolf to the back of my mind and took my human form once more. Again I noticed that she blushed when she saw my manhood. I chose not to put my pants on just yet and went to sit beside her on the bed. "Do you believe me now?" "Yeah ok you're a wolf. Why am I here in your home?" "I told you about the men at your house. One of them held a knife to your throat and threatened to cut it. Before I killed him he told me that a man named Vincent had sent them to kidnap you and bring you to him. He believes that you are his. "Vincent...? I don't know a Vincent, oh snap. Mr. Crandle the VP for Denton Moore. I barely know him. I have only spoken to him as it relates to the merger." "I am assuming that he is Were also and has mistaken his attraction to you for the mating pull." "Mating pull. What's that?" "I told you that you are my mate correct?" "Yeah. I don't get that either. I don't know what a mate is and I don't even know you." "I saw you yesterday. In the elevator at your office." "That was you?" "Yes. I could tell you were my mate from your scent." "Are you trying to say I smell." "No, your scent is the essence of you. I can smell better then humans and I know that you smell of honey and eucalyptus. It is a mouth watering smell and it calls to my wolf like no other scent I have ever encountered." "So is that want Mr. Crandle is smelling? Could their be two man/wolves whatever that are drawn to the same person?" "No. Luna makes it so that there is only one mate for one Were. You are my mate. No other man will ever touch you again." "And suppose I don't want to be your mate?" "I know you feel it too. I know that you are attracted to me. I can see it in your eyes and I smelt your arousal before. I can see it in the way you looked at my dick and then blushed." "I blushed because you don't have clothes on and in my world it is customary to put on pants when having a conversation. Why am I here?" "Well you fainted and went into shock. I couldn't leave you and I couldn't take you to a hospital for fear that this Vincent might find you so the logical place was my home. I also noticed how you changed the subject just now. Is that a smile I see on your face?" "Well Mr. Faol, is it, I thank you for saving me and protecting me, but I should be getting back to my own home." "NO!" "Excuse me?" "You are not allowed to go back there. I am sure Vincent knows that the kidnap attempt failed and he will be looking for you. I cannot allow you to go back there." "Dude I need clothes and stuff plus my best friend is coming tomorrow so we can hang out together." "You may hang out here. I took the liberty of having some of your things brought here. I can have an omega bring them in to you if you like." "Look I appreciate all this but..." "Natalie you must understand. Once I recognized you as my mate you became my life. I will not allow you to put yourself in danger and if I have to lock you up to protect you I will. I would prefer not to do that but I will if necessary." "I don't do well with the whole macho thing. I really do appreciate you taking care of me and protecting me but you can't make me do anything. I don't know about wolf women, but human women don't put up with that shit. Now I need to go home so if you would please have an omega or whatever bring me my stuff I will get dressed and go." "Okay please allow me to try and explain this to you in a different way. If I have to lock you in this room and chain you to the bed I will. Here I am Alpha and what I say is what is done. You will not put yourself in harms way ever again. You must try to understand that I have been waiting for you for over 400 years. It would kill me to have anything happen to you and I do mean that literally. Please mo ghra allow me to do what it is my nature to do." "400 years, just how old are you?" "I am now 458 years old. I was born in 1554 in a small village in Ireland. My family and the pack moved here 650 years ago. My father was alpha then. He and my mother have gone back to Ireland." "Your parents are still alive? "Yes they very much alive and well." "Wow, how old are they?" "I forget, but I believe my father is somewhere around the millennium mark and mother never really spoke about her age. She was human as you are though." "Millennium! That's 1,000 years old." "Yes I know, but he could be older or maybe a little younger." "Wait you said that your mother was human. Humans don't live that long." "No you don't. I said she was human past tense. My father changed her during their mating." "How?" "Well during the mating he bit her and passed the wolf gene to her and during the next full moon she was able to change into a wolf." "Does it hurt?" "No. Well not exactly painful, but it's more like a pleasure pain. Something akin to, well, sex. You know that slight tinge of pain with the pleasure of penetration. Well that's, at least, what I've been told." "I'll take your word for it." "I'm sorry I may not be explaining it correctly. I can only tell you what other females have told me. I don't know your experiences." "That's easy, none." "None as in virgin none?" "Yes, virgin. As in never had sex before so I wouldn't know." "Surely you have had an orgasm in your life, by your own hand at least, to know what I am speaking of." "No. Next topic please. Umm you said that I had to let you do what it is in your nature to do. Explain that to me please." At hearing this my wolf howled into my mind. He was extremely pleased that she did not know the touch of another, but I put that thought on the back burner and replied to her question. "A werewolf male may walk this earth for many hundreds of years before finding his mate, some never do. When we do it is our nature to protect her and cherish her and our pups til our dying breath. Natalie I would walk to the ends of this world to keep you safe. When I said it would kill me I was not trying to be at all funny or over exaggerate. I would die without you now that I have found you. Luna has designed you to complete me and me to complete you. We are only ½ of the people we are suppose to be without one another." "That sounds deep and a little fictional." "I can assure you that it is not fictional but it is deep. I fell in love with you the instant I caught your scent. The rest of my very long life will be spent making sure that you are protected, loved and worshiped." "Again I ask what if I don't want to be your mate?" "You want to be my mate. If you will stop and feel for one moment you will feel it in your heart and your soul. You were made for me and I for you. Just allow yourself to feel for one moment." "This is a little overwhelming for me. I mean you have to look at this from my perspective. I was almost kidnapped and killed last night, I find out that a nut job that I have never even really looked at is fixated on me, then you tell me that you are my 400 year old mate and that I am destined to be with you forever. Oh and that I would have to be turned into a wolf. I mean what am I suppose to do with that information." "Allow me to be what I am to you. Allow me to take care of you and protect you." "I am not a female that allows anybody to take care of and protect me. I have always done that for myself. I won't be some docile female that allows a man to make decisions for me and tell me what to do and how to do it. If that is what you want then maybe Luna did make a mistake because I won't be that for you." "Natalie as my mate you are an Alpha as well, effectively you are a queen, my equal. My wolf would not be drawn to a woman that would not complement me and who is not strong enough to be my mate. I love you and your strength. I have told you many things that would make a lesser woman run screaming from the room. Yet here you sit having an intelligent conversation with me asking questions." "I don't know how to do relationship, Conall. I have not had success in that area. I would end up hurting you and then I would have a pack of wolves out to kill me. It's a mistake. This would be a mistake if I allowed it to happen." "It's not a mistake. I have been completely honest with you have I not and I think that warrants a little trust on your part. Mo mhuirnin, I love you. If you will allow me I can show you how much I love you." "How? How would you do that?" "There are many ways to do that. Let me start with giving you a tour of my home and introducing you to the rest of the pack. I will leave while you get dressed and you can call your friend and invite her here for a friendly gathering." Natalie Ch. 02 "And my job,my life. I like to work out and go shopping sometimes. Maybe have lunch at a local restaurant." "I am not thrilled with the prospect of you being anywhere near this man, but if I assign two of my strongest betas to protect you then I think I will be a little more at ease. I, of course, will be in the building, but I will be at my attorney's office. It is the best that I can do right now. You are not Were and I would be going insane with worry. We have a gym here that is state of the art and I would love to take you to lunch and a movie. Shopping we can do as well either from here, I can get the different boutiques in town to come here, or we can go into town. I would of course accompany you with some of our warriors." "I need to tell you something. I do feel a connection or pull or whatever to you. I'm thrilled and terrified at the same time. It all seems to be happening way to fast and yet not fast enough. If that makes any sense at all. I just I'm scared here okay." "You have nothing to fear from me or this pack. Any member would gladly give their life to protect yours. Trust and believe me when I say that I love you and will protect you always." "I do trust you." "I will never let anything happen to you. I promise." "Yeah right. What you're gonna beat him to death with your walker. Do wolves use walkers?" "Did you just call me old?" "Would you prefer geriactric?" "Geriatric. I'll show you geriactric." With that I grabbed and started tickling her. In her wiggling her scent was over powering and I kissed her. I was overcome with just that small amount of contact and deepened the kiss. To my surprise she moaned and returned my advances. She was very timid, but allowed me continue forward. I licked at her lips with my tongue and she opened to me. I tasted every place in her mouth and was surprised when she began to stroke her tongue against mine. I withdrew to see if she would follow and, again, was surprised when she did. I laid her back on the bed and stood over her amazed at her beauty. She was mine. "Before I get too far ahead of myself I must ask the question as to whether you are offering yourself to me because if you are not then I will need to leave before we go to far across the line and I can't stop." She slowly raised herself to a sitting position and kissed down my chest. A gesture that I took to mean that she wanted me as much as I wanted her. I slowly pushed the straps of her night gown off of her shoulders and removed her arms to reveal her breast. Pushing her back into a laying position I pulled it off and saw her mound through the sheer panties she had on. I ripped those and threw them across the room. She lay before me naked and beautiful. Once I had the gown completely off I caressed her from her neck down to her feet. Reveling in the feel of her skin in my hands. She was so soft. Her arousal was a sweet scent in my nose. I laid down beside her, keeping in mind that this was her first time, and began to kiss her again. I kissed her lips, her nose, her eyes, her forehead and her cheeks. I made the circuit twice before moving to her neck. I could feel each shiver and quake in her body. I licked the pulse points in her neck and groaned. "You smell and taste of honey the most." I moved back to her mouth as my hand found her breast. I caught the moans of her pleasure in my mouth as I squeezed her breast and tweaked her nipples. I had to taste those dark nipples. I needed to roll them in my mouth and so I did. While suckling at one I twisted the other between my fingers and listen to her nonsensical words at the pleasure she was feeling. When her nipple was sufficiently wet I blew on it causing it to harden and moved to the other. The smell of her sex was getting stronger and stronger and I wanted to taste her there. I cupped her mound and was happy to feel the moisture and the heat. She was so unsure of herself and what to do. "Allow yourself to feel and do what feels natural and comfortable. I won't do anything that you don't want I promise." With my hand still caressing her pussy I used my index finger to slowly stroke the outer lips. "You are so wet for me." I moved to her hidden bud and coaxed it out of its hiding place. She shuddered and gasped with the pleasure that shot through her body. I loving circled her clit with my finger. "I want you to cum on my hand. Can you do that for me love? Cum for me please." I pushed into her mind so that I could feel what she was feeling. I felt the tightening low in her belly that signified the beginnings of her explosion. As the pressure began to build I spoke to her again. "Can you feel the tightness in the pit of your stomach the pressure that's building? Does it feel good love?" She could only shake her head saying yes to me. As I felt her orgasm take her I pressed my finger into her and at the height I pushed through her maidenhead and sawed my finger in and out of her body. I did this until see began to relax on the bed again. "Are you ok," I asked? She could only shake her head yes as she caught her breath. I was not done yet. I slowly removed my finger and placed it in my mouth. Her taste exploded on my tongue and I knew I had to have more. I stood up and pulled her to the edge of the bed with her ass hanging over. I slowly went to my knees on the floor for better access and opened her legs to display her fully to my eyes and mouth. I inhaled deeply and then blew on her pussy just to watch her shiver. Before the sensation was over I attacked her like a man starving. I nibbled, licked and sucked every inch of her pussy. I wrapped my hands around her thighs and across her lower abdomen to hold her in place as I feasted on her body. Her shouts and moans were music to my ears and then she tensed. "Oh shit shit shit! Ahhhhh Conall oh oh oh." She screamed my name as another orgasm shook her body and I took great satisfaction in making my mate cum. I shifted my tongue and pushed it into her quivering hole. This sent her through the roof. I licked her internal walls and loved the feeling of her clamping down on my tongue. Withdrawing my tongue I then inserted a finger and started to fuck it into her at a slow pace. Once she was used to one finger I inserted a second working to stretch her for the invasion of my cock. I used my thumb to work her clit seeking to push her into another orgasm and inserted a third finger. "Oh ow ow ow." " I am sorry my love. I was trying to stretch you before I enter you. Do you wish me to continue?" "Will there be more pain?' "I will do my best to minimize it. Maybe some pressure." "Well I let you go this far might as well go the whole way." I kissed her mound and laved it with my tongue knowing that this helped. I moved her back to the center of the bed. Then I positioned myself above her. Rubbing myself up and down to gather some of her juices to coat my cock with. I pushed very slowly forward. She was so hot and tight. She felt incredible. I pushed in about an inch and withdrew then pushed in two inches. "Relax love." "I'll try." Resuming my thrusting I took painstaking care to go very slowly. After what seemed like an eternity I was fully seated in my mate's body. It was both heaven and hell. Heaven because she felt so good wrapped around my dick and hell because she was so tight. "Conall..." "Yes love." "Why did you stop?" "I am trying to give your body time to adjust to me." "Oh." "Shall I continue?" "Yes." I withdrew and slowly made my way back in. When I heard her moans of pleasure I began to pick up the pace and to my delight she was lifting her hips to meet my downward thrust. "Am I doing this right?" "Exactly right," I moaned. Her being so responsive spurred me forward and I quickened my strokes. It was my intention to take her at a normal pace, but two things happened that caused my wolf to surge forward. One she moaned my name so deliciously and two she dug her nails in my back as she came on my dick. I withdrew and flipped her onto her stomach and placed her on her hands and knees. I slammed home and began to fuck her for all I was worth. Reaching around her I rub her clit in time with me pounding into her. I felt my knot growing and I wanted to be fully seated before it became to large. I had to force my wolf to the background because I didn't want to take this choice from her. " Ghra I need you to understand something." "Now." "Yes because if I allow my wolf to pin you then he will bite you and mark you as ours and you would never be able to leave me. Wolves mate for live and I want you to trust me so I am giving you the choice." "Make yours Conall." Those three words unleashed my wolf. I slammed into her repeatedly forcing my knot into her welcoming body. She screamed in orgasm as it pushed across her g spot. I continued to jackhammer into her through that orgasm wanting her to cum again and again as I pushed for my own release. I pulled her up so her back was to my stomach, reached around and started to stroke her sensitive clitoris with one hand and tweaked her nipple with the other. "I want you to cum with me my love. I want to feel you tightening around my cock as I fill you with my seed." "Please Conall please." With inhuman speed I pumped my body into hers feeling the tingling in my balls that let me know I was oh so close to cumming. "Cum for me love." As I felt her legs tremor I grabbed her hair and pulled her head back and to the side and bit into her neck. This pushed her over the edge which pushed me over the edge. I pumped what felt like gallons of my cum into her womb while suckling at her neck. Gradually I laid us both down on our sides. I licked to bite mark to clean the little specks of blood away and to close the punctures. "Wow," she said. "Wow is right. Are you okay? I didn't hurt you did I?" "I. Am. Wonderful. So that is what I've been missing huh?" "I can only say that is what you have been missing with me. As for other men I cannot say that your experience would have been the same." "Why do I still feel so full?" "We are tied I have pinned you." "Excuse me." "My anatomy, the anatomy of a wolf is different from a human males. Before we climax the base of my penis grows and swells inside of you to complete mating and to ensure successful conception." "Conception...you mean like babies?" "Yes, but not to worry you will not be able to become pregnant unless and until you are changed. But that won't stop me from trying." "How long will we be tied?" "Anywhere from 10 minutes to maybe an hour." "Conall I need to tell you that I am a little shocked at the turn of events. Am I insane because last night I was being held at knife point by some strange man and now here I am having just had sex, for the first time mind you, and feeling all these feelings for you that I really don't understand." "Natalie the mating bond is a deep instinctual feeling. It is not something that can be explained and probably can never be fully understood. When it is felt by my kind it drives us to do everything we can to claim our mates quickly. The feelings that you are feeling will be strange and maybe a little unsettling, as they are for me, but I know that there is no fighting the pull and so I allow myself to just feel what I'm feeling. You, being human, will have more trouble with this then I. The only thing I can say is please don't run from me and whenever you are feeling doubt, fear, or uncertainty come talk to me and we will work it out together, ok." Just then there was a knock at the door. I already knew it was Caiden because he had announced himself telepathically. I decided then to show Natalie that we could speak to each other that way. "Natalie, mo mhuirnin, can you hear me?" "Yes, but how?" "We are mated and so we can speak to each this way. We can sense each others feelings and as Alpha you are also able to communicate to the pack. I am telling you because my brother, Caiden, is about to come in to the room." "In here?" "Yes love in here." "But I'm naked." "Oh believe me I know and I will attend to your nakedness as soon as he leaves." "Oh my." "Oh mine." "Conall I'm coming in." "Ok Caiden come in." I could feel Natalie trying to shrink into the covers, but I let her know that it would be considered rude and that Caiden would want to show respect to his new Queen. Caiden walked through the door and immediately bowed. "Good morning my King and my Queen." "Good Morning Caiden. Please allow me to introduce you to Natalie Coldwell, my mate." I nudged Natalie. "Good Morning Caiden." "Conall I took the liberty to schedule a council meeting for today. It is to discuss everything that happened last night and to look into what needs to be done from here." "Did you find anything else out about Vincent Crandle?" "Yes. We will discuss it all at the meeting." "What time is the meeting?" "I ummm scheduled the meeting for later. You have until 1pm. That should give you time to ahhhh well continue with your ahhhh activities." "Thank you Caiden. We will not be late. Would you please have the pack assembled so that I can introduce them to their new Queen." "Of course. My Alphas. Enjoy your time or selves." "Goodbye Caiden." With that he left the room. An I immediately turned my attention to my new mate. Withdrawing from her body I rolled her onto her back and settled between her legs. "Are there any questions that you may have for me or am I free to further molest your body and teach you the art of lovemaking?" "I do have questions." "Oh well ask away." "Am I a wolf now I mean have I been infected or whatever?" "No my bite was to mark you not to change you. As an alpha I have to have a formal ceremony that will include the entire pack." "The entire pack doing what?" "Well the council of elders will speak some ancient words blessing our mating and then I will mate you on the sacred alter, pin you and then the pack will get our combined scent." "You mean fuck me in front of everybody." "Yes." "How do they catch our scent?' "They taste." "Taste! Like licking me like you just did?" "Not quite what I did. Nobody gets to do what I just did." "I don't know about that." "During our mating I will bite you again, but this time I will pass the wolf gene to you and the next full moon you will shift." "And that all seems okay to you?" "That is our way. It is not as bad as it sounds. It has been years since there has been a mating for an alpha pair in this pack. Not since my parents. It would be a grand affair down by the lake. After wards everyone would eat and dance and rut to their hearts content. Sex is not a big deal here between consenting adults and it is often public and ceremonial. It is nothing for the pack to has all night fuck session after a pack run." "Really. And just who did you fuck?" "As alpha I had my choice of any unmated female. I have indulged over the years, but it had been a long time for me. I was not satisfied with random sex with random females anymore." "So there are females that maybe angry with me now?" "Of course not. They understood their place and would never challenge you." "Ummm." "Any more questions for me?" "Nope." "Shall we take a shower then?" "Yes that would be nice maybe grab some lunch. Sex works up an appetite." "That is does." Once in the shower it was our intent to wash and dress for lunch so that we could meet the pack and make the council meeting, but things took a decidedly different turn with the rubbing and soaping each others bodies. Before I knew it I was on my knees with Natalie's leg thrown over my shoulder tasting her delights once again. My raging erection soon demanded attention so I lifted her up. "Wrap your legs around my waist and hold on around my neck," Once she was in position I slammed my way home. Pushing her against the wall I assaulted her pussy with reckless abandon. Her moans and mewling sounds pushed me on. "Fuck you feel so good love. So tight and wet for me. I am getting close. I want you to cum with me." I reached between our bodies and started massaging her. "Yes Conall Yes. Fuck me harder. Ohhhhhh. Go deeper baby deeper." "Like that ghra?' "Yes! Oh oh I'm cumming!" Hearing those words pushed me over and I was again filling her womb with my seed to overflow. I was pleased that she was not quite as virginal in her speaking this time around. I knew it was probably embarrassing for her, but she never showed any signs of being embarrassed. All of Natalie's luggage was in our room when our shower was finished. We dressed and made our way towards the dining hall for lunch. As we walked through the door the room fell into silence. "Faol pack may I please introduce you to my new mate and your new queen, Natalie Coldwell. That announcement was meet with loud clapping and howls. We took out seats and the omegas began serving us lunch. As the pack finished eating they would make their way to the table to speak to us and to stroke or hug each of us. "Ghra is the affection bothering you?" "No, but now that you mentioned it why are they doing it?" "You are their queen for one and we take comfort in closeness. It is how we reaffirm bonds." "Oh, that makes sense I guess. There's a lot for me to learn huh?" "You are doing exceptionally well mo ghra." "I feel completely stupid." "Well don't. My world is very different then your old world. It will take some time, but if you attack it the same as all of your other recently acquired "new experiences" then you will excel here as well." Then I sent her images of her in the throes of passion. I watched as she blushed. "You are so beautiful Natalie." "You're not so bad yourself there baby." "Let's get to the meeting." "I have to go?" "Yes it concerns you and you are an Alpha. We need to learn everything we can about this man so that we can better protect you encase he is still under the misapprehension that you are his. Shall we?" Once we were all seated in the council room I made the necessary introductions. "Natalie this is the elder council. Aalish, Caelan, Finn, Bethany and Davis. Everyone please meet Natalie Renea Coldwell, my mate." They all stood and bowed and responded with the customary, "Welcome Your Highness, we are forever in your service." "Hello everyone, it is very nice to meet you all." "Very well shall we get down to business. I am not sure how much Caiden has told you all, but last night my mate was attacked in her home by a group of men, and I use the term very loosely, that were commissioned to kidnap her for one Vincent Crandle. He is someone that Natalie met through her work and he believes that she belongs to him. I will be correcting that assumption in short order. What do we know of him?" "In doing research I found that he just came to this country from a Scotland. He was a beta in Tierney pack. He was sent here to work with her highness' company as the acquired a company the Tierney Alpha had sold to them. I have not spoken to the Tierney Alpha as I thought that would be something you would want to do. I have asked around about him and some of the other Were says that he is someone that should be watched. I did't find out much else. He has kept a low profile while in this country, but I still have others searching for more information." "Excellent Caiden. I will speak with the Tierney alpha and make him aware of what has been going on. Please know council that should I find this Crandle I will kill him. Nobody threatens my mate and lives for long." "It is as it should be Conall. None of us would dare object," said Finn. "Very well then are we done?" Natalie Ch. 02 "Yes, I will have the number for you before dinner. I am sure that you are anxious for a little alone time with the new Madame Alpha." "Yes, I want to take her for a tour of the grounds. This council meeting is adjoined." "Thank you Your Majesties." "Shall we alainn?" "Alainn..."? "Beautiful." "Can you teach me gaelic?" "Of course I can. When would you like to start?" "Right now. How do you say wolf?" "Faol." "So your name would translate Conall Wolf?" "Yes." "Well that will be easy to remember." "Look over there love. We have barbecues and parties right there. If you take a path just to the left it will lead you to the lake." "Can I see the sacred altar?" "I can take you to the place where the altar will be erected. I will build the altar. It becomes sacred once the elders speak over it. After the ceremony the slab will be engraved with our names and the date and placed in the hall of history. Love while we are talking about the ceremony there is one thing that I had not mentioned earlier." "That sounds ominous. What?" "Well you have to not only mate with me, Conall, the human, but also with me Conall the wolf." "What?!" "Ciunaigh alainn ciunaigh. You have already mated with me the man. Mating with the wolf will occur during the ceremony towards the end. I will begin to make love to you as a man. When you are nearing climax I will change to the wolf once you have cum and I have bitten you I will change back." "Dogs have pretty big dicks Conall. How much bigger in wolf for is yours?" "Well you have already seen in human form that is it around 10.5 inches, in wolf for it is only maybe 2 inches more, but it is thicker. My hybrid form is that largest at around 14 inches." "12.5 inches seriously wait hold up did you just say 14? Have you ever had sex in hybrid?" "Yes with were-women. Never with a human." You expect me to take a twelve in cock and the knot thing. It will never fit. I won't be able to sit for a month." "I will spend a great deal of time using my tongue to heal you love. It would be my pleasure. In fact we could go back to the room and start working on you taking all of me now." "I want to continue the tour. At this rate I may not make it to the ceremony. You're going to have me sore." "Are you sore now?' "No actually I'm not. Why is that?" "My saliva has healing properties. Since you were a virgin, I thought it best that help with the soreness of first time sex." "Oh. What are those buildings over there?" "Those are the homes of the mate couples." "Where do the unmated people live?" "We have two separate wings to the main house. Once side houses the unmated females omegas and the other has the unmated males omegas. They require more protection. The unmated thetas and betas have housing here on the grounds as well. Some of the betas choose to stay in the city though." "You may have told me this already, but what are betas, thetas, and omegas. Sounds like a fraternity." "Betas are the warriors, you will have to choose betas for your service too. Thetas are the next rank down. They do a lot of the technical stuff here and in our offices. Omegas are those that serve us. The maids, cooks, pup sitters and the like." "So you make them do these jobs?" "No. A Were is naturally born to these stations in life just as I was born to be an alpha." As we entered the house I showed her the kitchens, the omega quarters, my study, the gym, the security room, the cages, and the secured room. I also showed her and empty room near mine that would be made her office for when she was at home. As we walked back to our rooms I remembered she had made plans with her friend. "Ghra, you should call Veronica." "I know, but I don't know what to say. How do I explain to her that I met someone, that we will be having a impromptu barbecue at his house, that I now live here and oh there are about 500 other people that live here as well." "Yeah good point. "Can't we go out to lunch or something?" "Not quite yet, but I have an idea. We can have a pack barbecue tomorrow, invite her and tell her that I invited you after meeting you at the gym. I will make certain that the pack understands that she is human and so we must act human around her, no shifting, no your highness, no bowing. Plus this will give you a chance to interact with the pack. What do you think?" "I don't know." "Unfortunately love it is the only other option for right now. Crandle does not know that you are here with me, at least I don't think he does, and even if he does he wouldn't attack here." "Ok. I'll call and see what can be arranged." "Good. While you are talking to her, I will make myself busy in my study. Pack business to attend to." "This is going to be hard for me. I'm not use to being coddled and protected." "I know, but thank you for allowing me to do it. I will see you in about an hour." With that I left her to her phone call. Natalie Ch. 03 We had an interesting lunch. Both of us were pretty charged up, and we sat in the back of a little Italian bistro. I was glad for the stereotypical long red-checked table cloths on our table. The other patrons couldn't see my fingers playing with her pussy all through lunch. I did get Natalie close to an orgasm a couple times, but I backed off, wanting to keep the tension. Natalie groaned with disgust when I took my hand away just before desert arrived. She begged me to finish, but I steadfastly refused. "Uh, uh, uh...I want you good and horny." "But I NEED to cum," she whispered hoarsely in my ear. She pulled up her legs and sat on her ankles—indian-style. Forgoing caution, she shoved one hand under her skirt to push her panties aside and the other she licked to get some lubrication on them and started attacking her clit. It only took a couple seconds and she was rocking back and forth and her face was contorted into her beautiful orgasm face. She managed to stay silent, but a couple of blue-haired women across the room shot us a disapproving glance. "Ooh, much better," she said as her cheesecake arrived and she rearranged her skirt. Back at the hotel, Natalie had ordered more groceries before we left, so the room was cleaned and fully stocked when we arrived back with our purchases. She stuck her bags in the hall closet with an admonishment to not touch or peek at them. "I want them to be a surprise." She smiled at me. I stuffed my purchases into a bureau drawer, and then a thought struck me. Who's first? It was a bit warm in the room, so I turned down the A/C and dropped my shirt on the bed before going back to the other room. "So Natalie, how do we decide whose fantasy is first?" I asked her. "I thought I would go first. If that's okay with you." "Nah, I thought maybe we could play for it. Do you happen to have a deck of cards?" "That's not a bad idea. I have just the thing." She walked over to the closet where all her bags were stored and rummaged around until she came out with a new deck of cards, which she tossed to me. Opening up the cards, I had to stop and smile at her. She had bought cards with naked women on the back—some with two women sucking and licking each other. "Cards with lesbians? Is there something you're not telling me?" "Well, I did experiment a little in college. Who didn't? I just saw the cards and had to have them." My mind was racing with a picture of her head full of honey-colored hair buried in some other co-ed's crotch. It was a nice picture. She must have known what I was thinking because she just giggled at me. "I want to go for a swim while the sun is still high in the sky. Are you up for a swim?" She said as she casually stripped off her clothes and headed for the bedroom. I guess the lunch had backfired on me. I was getting my strength back after the blowjob in the car, and she was feeling quite satisfied having just finished herself off before desert. I reluctantly agreed. No sense in pushing her to fuck more now. We would have plenty of time, and it turned out this trip to the pool would be the best thing that happened to us on this trip. She returned a moment later with a tube of sun block and a bikini balled up in her hand. "Will you put this on my back?" She turned around and lifted her hair out of the way for me. With the sun lighting her naked body from behind, it was a beautiful sight. There she was, with her feet planted a little more than shoulder width apart. This was the perfect position for me to study her, and I didn't let the opportunity pass me by. Starting at her cute, little size 5 feet with red painted toenails, my eyes drifted up past her slender ankles and up to her well-muscled, shapely calves. Natalie isn't muscled in a freaky way, but she has impressive muscle tone all over that is the perfect complement to her petite frame. Her curved thighs end at her firm, round buttocks. My eyes continued up her back, noticing how her back muscles make the indentation of her spine stand out and how her thin waist is a perfect complement to her pronounced hips. I approached her, running my fingers along where her shoulders meet to form her cute little neck. When I got up directly behind her, I rested my chin lightly on the top of her head and ran my hands down her sides to grab the sun block she was holding against her stomach with her right hand. Gently cupping her left breast and squeezing her nipple, I leaned down to kiss her neck and whispered, "Are you sure you want to go swimming? I have a few other ideas." She shied away from me and spun around to playfully smack me on the arm. "Down boy! I want to savor this lingering 'I've been fucked' feeling in my ass for a while longer. It's kind of nice." She reached behind her and wiggled her ass a little. "Well then, I'll make it my goal to make sure you keep that 'just fucked' feeling." "After swimming. Now, put that sun block on me—I don't want to burn." I started rubbing the sun block on her right foot and worked my way up her leg. My hands lingered on her ass and she got plenty of sunscreen on her pussy, but she didn't seem to mind too much. I went to grab my suit, and when I turned around, she had put on a bright red bikini with a string top and boy-shorts bottom. She spun around to show it off. "What do you think? This suit is new." "I like. Those shorts really hug your ass." I walked over and gave her ass a squeeze before we left for the pool. At the pool, there was just one other person—a woman with olive skin and bleached blonde hair was lying on her stomach on the far side of the pool reading a book. She was wearing a floral print string bottom and her top had been untied. It was quite a sight, and even Natalie noticed her, muttering "nice" under her breath before jumping into the pool. I jumped in after her, and what we did was less swimming and more just fooling around. This hotel pool was outside the view of the guest rooms, and with our only audience facing away from us, we felt free to play. Before long, I had Natalie trapped against the side of the pool and pushed her top up to grab and kiss her breasts. A few strokes of dry humping and she pulled my cock out of my swim trunks and stroked it under the water. I noticed the woman who had been lying down was sitting up and watching us with her bikini top still untied but held on with her forearm. The first thing that struck me when I looked at her was her bright blue eyes framed by hair dropping just below her chin and a dark complexion that didn't seem to match either the hair or the eyes. "We have an audience," I whispered to Natalie, pulling her top back over her breasts. She turned around, but she didn't stop stroking my cock. "Hi," the woman said. "You two look like you're having fun." She spoke with a slight Italian accent. "Sorry," Natalie said. "I guess we got a little carried away." "Don't be sorry. My name is Nerina, by the way." "Nice to meet you Nerina, I'm Natalie, and this is Nick. That's an interesting name. Italian?" Our conversation went on for a while. About halfway through, Natalie jumped out of the pool, but she had kept stroking my cock, so I couldn't jump out of the pool right away. The thin fabric wouldn't be able to hold back my raging hard-on. Natalie helped Nerina re-apply her sun block. I don't know if I was imagining things, but I could have sworn Natalie was enjoying it—and so was Nerina. We learned Nerina was a college exchange student. Her sponsor family had gone to Mexico for vacation, and she decided not to leave the country to avoid risking being stopped trying to re-enter on her student visa. She was staying here as a sort of mini-vacation for the next week. Nerina had a dinner date, so she begged off before too long, but not before she exchanged phone numbers with Natalie. In the elevator on the way back to Natalie's room, there was an older couple who looked like they had just left Sunday dinner. Natalie stood with her back to me and reached up my swim suit to jerk me off. I didn't know what to do except stand as normally as possible, but how do you stand normally when you're getting a handjob in an elevator? Natalie was getting pretty bold. I wondered what else was going on in that pretty little head. The couple never noticed what Natalie was doing, but I did have to carry my towel in front of me when we got off the elevator. Back in the room, she pulled out the cards and started shuffling. "Game is strip poker—5 card stud." "This is going to be a short game, but let's at least even the odds." I untied her top and threw it on the floor. "Do you think you're ready for what I have in mind?" She asked as she dealt. "Only one way to find out. Two cards." She had dealt me utter crap. 3, 4, 5, 8, 10—different suits. I ended up drawing a 2 and a 9, and she ended up with two pair, sixes and nines. "You're mine until this time tomorrow." She said. I didn't think the deal was for 24 hours at a time, but what the hell? Live a little. "Alright, what do you want me to do?" "First, lose the shorts, no clothes allowed in this room. Second, we're shaving your cock, balls, and asshole clean." Okay, that one caught me off guard. "Asshole? What for?" "So the cock I bought to fuck you with slides in easier." She said this in such a matter-of-fact manner, I've got to admit, she had me pretty apprehensive at this point. She picked up some towels to lay on the floor, told me to sit and then disappeared into the bathroom and reappeared a couple minutes later with her razor, shave cream, and the ice bucket full of water. She knelt down in front of me and started spreading the shaving cream all over my pelvis, cock, balls, and asshole. I had been watching her, but she suddenly stood up, stripped off the rest of her bikini, kicked me in the chest just hard enough to force me to lie down. "This will be more fun," she said, kneeling down on my arms and pushing her crotch into my face. Your run-of-the-mill sixty-nine usually doesn't involve a razor, but what the hell, it was still good fun. You can't help but have fun with your tongue shoved in a bald, dripping wet, and very tasty pussy. I even snuck a finger into her ass for a while. I lost myself in her pussy and almost forgot she was shaving my balls as I stretched my tongue to reach further into her pussy. She rinsed and toweled me off so she could check out her work with her tongue. Starting at my cock, she worked her way down the shaft to suck my balls into her mouth one at a time. "Hmm, I like this." She said. Her tongue wandered down to the space between my sack and asshole, licking repeatedly between the two while she stroked my cock. When she started in on my asshole, I almost lost it. I'd never had anyone lick my ass. She suctioned her lips onto my asshole and started pushing her tongue in. I nearly lost it right then, but she pulled back quickly. "You're not allowed to cum yet. I need you good and hard." "Nice," she said as she stood up to admire her shave job. Natalie left my lying there and went into the other room, returning with something I couldn't identify immediately. It looked like some kind of rigging. "Help me with this. It needs to go under the mattress." After she spread it out, I understood what it was. It had four straps, joined with a metal ring in the middle. When placed under the mattress, the other end of each strap could be secured around an ankle or wrist, tying someone down quite effectively. Better than handcuffs or rope anyway, since there was nothing to tie them to. I'd never been tied down before, but that was obviously what Natalie had in mind. She told me to lie down and tied my wrists to the top straps. In retrospect, maybe allowing myself to be tied down just one day after first fucking her, but in the heat of the moment, you don't think about that. "I'm hungry, but before dinner, I want to feel you come in my pussy. Can you handle that?" "I am at your mercy." We were both pretty hot already after the shaving and my first rim job, so she didn't waste any time mounting me and sliding my cock deep inside her. She rode me hard from the start, bucking wildly with her hair flapping wildly and her small breasts bouncing. I couldn't move much, but I did thrust my hips up to meet her. I'm surprised we both weren't very bruised after this violent fuck. The extra friction of her bald pussy lips rubbing my newly shaved pelvis was amazing. At first, it hurt a little, but she soon reached down and spread her lips to allow her clit to rub directly on my pelvis. Her juices spread between us and she slid easily forward and back on my pelvis. She pushed herself down on me harder to put more pressure on her clit, and force my cock deeper in her. I couldn't take it anymore and exploded into her pussy while she continued to ride me hard. When she felt me come, she paused briefly to feel my cum hit her insides. I usually went soft quickly, so this was a bit of a shock to me, but she kept riding me for a couple more minutes until she collapsed on my chest, shaking with the remnants of an orgasm. She smiled down at me. "That was fun, and the evening hasn't even started yet." The late-afternoon sun was still streaming in the window. She went to the kitchen to find some food. I was left tied to the bed to wonder what was next. I was loving every minute of it, but this was far more sex than I was used to in an entire week, let alone less than 24 hours. Natalie Ch. 03 Thank you for your comments and votes. I hope you enjoy chapter 3. Vincent Crandle "Sir." "What!" "The gentlemen have failed sir." "WHAT!!" "Yyyes sir. It seems that someone saw the men and thought they were burgulars." "Where are they now?" "Dead sir." "Dead?" "Yes sir. They were killed." "How did you come by this information?" "We did as you asked and waited for them a few blocks away, when they didn't come we drove pass the house and saw some gentlemen walking around. The house was block off by crime scene tape. I came over and told them I was a friend of Miss Natalie and asked what was wrong. They said there was an attempted burglary. I also asked where Miss Natalie was, but they wouldn't tell me." "How do you know they're dead?" "I saw them bring out four body bags and place them in a van sir." "Imbeciles! Complete and total imbeciles. Never send a man to do a wolf's job. Damn it! I need this woman. She maybe the key to breaking the curse. Find out where she is, NOW!" "As you command sir." Natalie Once Conall left I sat down on the bed to try and wrap my mind around, well, everything. In less than 24 hours my life has dramatically changed. I have some whack job hiring people to kidnap me, I was rescued by the guy from the elevator, I came face to face with the realization that werewolves are real and that I am his mate, I loss my virginity and I now I have to stay here because of the crazy man after me. I am emotionally all over the place. My life was not perfect, but it was My Life. I made the decisions, went where I wanted when I wanted. I didn't have to answer to anyone but myself and now it seems that I have to answer to the Alpha Conall and an elder council. WTF? How do I handle all this? "Deep breath Natalie first things first, call Ronnie and have a melt down later," I say to myself. "Hey Ronnie, what's up girl?" "Uh oh, you must be flaking on me." "No I just wanted to change the venue. I met this guy at the gym and he invited me to his house for a uh company picnic and barbecue and I don't want to go alone, but I kinda like him and really want to go so I was thinking maybe you could go and feel him out for me." "Oooooooh a guy huh." "Yeah. His name is Conall Faol." "Tell me about him. Where does he live, what does he do?" I didn't really ask him about his job. He gave me his address and it seems to be in a pretty nice part of town." If only she knew how nice. "So you really like him?" "I think I really do. He seems to be really sweet." "Ok. Well I'll drive to your house and we can go from there." "Um he's sending a car for me so I will come pass your house and get you." "A car! So he has money?" "Yeah he has some." "Ok what time?" "I guess around 2 or so. Oh and bring a bathing suit because he has a lake on the property where we can do some swimming." "Ok then see you tomorrow." "Bye." "Bye." I felt bad once I hung up. I was lying to my best friend. Lying mostly by omission, but lying nonetheless. I wish I could tell her that a crazy person tried to have me kidnapped, but I can't because she would freak and want me to stay with her and I don't think that's even an option that Conall would consider. I wish I could tell her that werewolves were real and that Conall was one, the Alpha no less, and I was his mate, but I can't cause she'll think I'm ready for a rubber room. I wish that I could talk to her about these feeling that I'm having for Conall that seem to be too strong too fast, but I can't without a lecture. I wish I could tell her that I had lost my virginity to him, but I'm embarrassed because I have only known the guy since waking up this morning. Does that make me a slut? Ummmm yeah it does. "No it most certainly does not." Damn I forgot he could hear me. "Love, the attraction that we feel for one another is perfectly natural." "Maybe for a werewolf, but in the human world, I'm a slut." "How can I make you understand that we were destined to be?" "Well you can't that's something that I guess I'll have to learn to accept, but I do want to give us a chance." "Good. I am sending up the cook. You need to plan a menu for tomorrow's barbecue. Maybe if you are busy you won't have time to "have a meltdown". "You caught all that?" "You projected all of your thoughts love. Probably because you were so stressed. I will teach you how to block me if you want." "Heck yeah I want." "Oh ok." Shit now I hurt his feelings. "Conall, I'm not use to having somebody else in my head. It will take some getting use to. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings." "I will be okay. I'm have to keep reminding myself that you are human and that you have many hang ups that my people don't have." "Thank you for understanding. Now why am I meeting with the cook?" " I just wanted to give you something to do so you wouldn't just be sitting around." " Well if you want me busy I think I'll go to the gym. I usually work out on Saturdays. I mean if it's okay with you?" "Muirnin, you don't have to ask me. This is your home. You have free reign to do what you want. Just don't leave the grounds." "Want to join me." "As soon as I am done I will make my way there." "Okay." I went to my bags and found some shorts and a tank top. I changed my clothes and made my way to the gym. I had a few stares from the different people, but for the most part I was greeted with smiles. Once inside the gym I hit the treadmill. I loved running this way. It helped me to clear my mind and just relax. I loved the burn of the muscles in my thighs, and the rapid beating of my heart and the feeling I get in my lungs as they contract and expand with each breath, exhilarating! My only wish is that I had my i-pod. I love to listen to music as I work out. I will have to ask Conall about my i-pod. I was so into my work out that I didn't realize that I was no longer alone. I looked up and there was a pretty girl watching me. When she had my attention she turned and walked out without a single word. That was strange. "Oh well". I finish my workout without Conall joining me and I headed back to the house. Destination: a shower, a nap and then getting a little dinner. The water felt really good on my muscles. As I'm standing under the water I start remembering my earlier shower with Conall and the delicious things he did to my body. I mean I had never had sex, but even I knew that it was great. I closed my eyes seeing him on his knees and feeling his tongue. Next thing I know I am pushed into the shower wall and lifted slightly off the floor. Once Conall had me at the right height he was pushing his dick into me. He sank his whole length in with one forceful thrust that took my breath away. His thrusting was almost violent in nature, but my body responded and I started to push back trying to push more of him into me. I was so close to cumming and then he was gone. He pulled me out of the shower and commanded me to my hands and knees. Before I was comfortable he had again slammed himself into my body, his thrusting so hard I was being pushed across the floor. Suddenly I was feeling fur on my back. Conall was shifting. There was a split second of fear, but lust won out. I wanted more, I needed more. Conall very gently grabbed the scruff of my neck in his massive jaws as he pushed his knot home. His thrusts became shorter, but continued in strength. Conall removed his mouth from the back of my neck and moved to the spot where he had bitten me earlier. With one final hard thrust he bit down and came into me. The heat of his cum flowing into my body pushed me over and I went soaring into my own little piece of heaven. Conall shifted as we were trying to catch our breath. He grabbed me by the back of my thighs and stood taking me to the bed. Once we were both comfortable Conall spoke. "If those are the kind of thoughts that you will be projecting to me then I am hesitant to teach you to block me." "Hell, if that's your response then I don't want to learn." "Why thank you alainn. I couldn't control my wolf he was very anxious to be with you too. I didn't hurt you did I?" "I never quite understood the phrase 'hurt so good' until now. Wolf sex was gooooood. I should be ashamed to have just had canine sex, but wow." "Why should you be ashamed. You had sex with your mate who is part canine. It is very natural." "Again, in the wolf world not the human world." "Well you are now a part of the wolf world are you not?" "So that is what the ceremony will be like." "Yes, there will only be a few things that are different, otherwise yes." I remembered the "few things" he spoke about and decided to change the subject. The more time I had to think about it the more nervous I would become. "I spoke to Ronnie." "Yes I know. I have to make one small adjustment to your travel plans." "Let me guess, someone will have to travel with me when I go to pick her up?" "Well not someone, me. I won't trust your safety to another until I have taken care of the threat." "Well I don't think that will be a problem. Even though I am a little uncomfortable with how fast this whole thing has progressed I can't deny that I am drawn to you and I want to be with you." "That is very nice to know. I have to go back to my office, when I can that is, would you like to join me?" "I think I will take a nap and join you in the dining hall for dinner." "Okay" I fell into a deep sleep soon afterwards. Why am I so damn cold? I don't remember opening a window or maybe Conall did. I struggled to open my eyes and was startled by what I saw. I was in the woods. How the hell did I get here? An inner sense told me that I shouldn't be here, but I was rooted to my spot. I can hear noises and turn my head to the left. What is that? It sounds like somebody being chased. Just then I see a woman running. Her face is streaked with mud and tears and she had leaves and other debris in her hair. I can see bloodied scratches on her arms. She's terrified. Then I see what she is running from. It's a big grey wolf, I mean enormous, and it's gaining on her. It leaps through the air and lands on her back pushing her to the ground. It raises it's paw and I can see razor sharp claws which he uses to slice open her back. She screams at the same time I do. "Natalie Natalie wake up." I start swinging my fists wildly. "No! No! get away from me! Stop it!" "Alainn, it's me. It's Conall. Open your eyes. Look at me. MATE LOOK AT ME NOW!!!!" I felt the command of his voice and opened my eyes realizing I was in the bedroom and not the woods. "That poor woman. It killed her. I couldn't do anything to help. It just killed her right there in the woods. Why would it do that? Oh Conall it was horrible." "It was just a dream love. You are fine. It was just a dream." "It felt so real, like a memory almost. I need a drink. Do you have any white wine here?' "We have cooking sherry. I can get you a glass. Anything, but I have to come with you. That dream freaked me out and I don't want to be alone." "Ok let's go." Instead of a glass I drank what was left in the bottle. Once I felt calm I told Conall about my dream. "It was like a memory, but it couldn't have been a memory because I didn't recognize the woman. It was just so bizarre. And the way she was dressed seemed very very very old fashioned. I just don't know." "Maybe with all that you have been through it was your subconscious trying to cope." "Maybe. Maybe. Are you done with your business?" "No I am waiting for Caiden to bring me the Tierney number. You are more than welcome to wait with me. You can rest on the sofa." "That would be perfect. Thank you." Walking to Conall's office I couldn't shake the feeling that I didn't have a dream at all. I was seeing a memory through another's eyes. It was as if they were giving me a clue, but to what. Conall As Natalie slept on the sofa I began to think about her "dream" and wondered if it actually was stress as I had told her or was it something more. I caught her feelings of terror thru the bond and it distressed me greatly. Even now I can feel a tinge of fear as she sleeps. I wish I could have seen what she saw. I hated this feeling of helplessness. I wanted to protect her from everything whether it was real or a dream. My thoughts were interrupted with a knock on the door. I could smell Caiden's scent and asked him to enter. "Hey Conall." "Shhhhh." "Oh, sorry I didn't realize she was asleep. Here's the number to the Tierney. How's she doing with everything?" "Amazingly well, at least on the surface. She had a dream a while ago that scared her quite bad. She says it was about a grey wolf chasing a woman in the woods and killing her. I am concerned if she is subconsciously hiding her fear of our kind or if it was just a dream. She says it felt more like a memory seen through someone else's eyes, but I am not certain what that means." "Maybe you should ask the council. I doubt it's fear of us though because here she is asleep and seemingly at peace. If she was afraid, even subconsciously, she would not go to sleep in your presence." "That is true. Maybe I am making too big a deal out of it, but I have this feeling, just like the other night, that something is wrong here. It's like a buzzing in my ear that I can't stop. There is something very weird with this dream, memory what ever it was and I bet anything it has to do with this damned Vincent Crandle." "Well you have always gone with your gut before and it has never let you down so I would suggest that you continue. Anything you need from me, brother, just ask." "As a matter of fact I need you to line up some of the strongest female betas in the pack so they can meet Natalie. She will need to choose her Betas. Since Bethany has been acting Alpha bitch there won't be a problem with a challenge. Also, I need some of the strongest warriors pulled together as a security detail for Natalie when she goes back to work. And finally, tomorrow Natalie's best friend is coming for a visit. It seems that they had plans to barbecue tomorrow and since she can't do it at her house she will be doing it here. What I need is for you to gather the pack together and tell them that I need their assistance in making this work. Natalie told Ronnie, that's her friend, that it was a company event. I need them to control themselves for the time she is here. They must not refer to either of us as Alpha or your highness. Mr. Faol will due. They should also wait until I introduce Natalie to a few members before they begin to use her name and then only as Natalie or Miss Natalie. No shifting at all so make sure the parents tell the little ones." "Anything else?" "No I think that about covers it. Oh tell the pack once Ronnie is gone we will have a "regular" pack barbecue complete with shifting, running, and rutting. That will be their reward for helping me with this" "Consider it done." Thank you Caiden." "Oh Caiden can you have dinner sent up to our suite in about an hour? I want to spend some alone time with her." "I just bet you do." "We need to discuss the mating ceremony and her duties as Madame Alpha." "Uh huh." "Goodbye Caiden." I could hear his laughter all the way down the hall. I had to laugh to myself because he knew as well as I did that when I started talking about the ceremony sex would soon follow. I would be surprised if my wolf allowed me to even start the conversation because he was already growling with the thought of us being alone with our mate. But first things first I need to speak to the Tierney alpha. Dialing the number I sat back in my chair and waited for an answer. "Elliot Tierney." "Hello Alpha Tierney, this is Alpha Faol. Good day." "Alpha Faol, hello. How may I help you?" "Well there is a situation here and unfortunately it involves one of your pack betas." "My beta? Who?" "Vincent Crandle?" "Vincent.... what has he done?" "Last night four men broke into the home of a human and attempted to kidnap her. These men gave Vincent's name as the person that hired them to carry out this act. Unfortunately these men are now dead. My question to you is why would he do something of this nature?" "Are you certain that these men didn't just try to implicate him in the hope of saving themselves?" "That is highly unlikely. The human female is involved with the human resources end of the merger that you are currently doing." "Natalie Coldwell, yes I am familiar with her name. Well maybe she is Vincent's mate?" At hearing him say those words my wolf growled. "No she is not his mate. Even if she was kidnapping one's mate is not the way we do things in this country. I need as much background on Mr. Crandle as you can possibly give me. I have to find out if there is a history that we need to be aware of." "Where is Miss Coldwell now? Is she well?" "She is fine. I have put her in a safe house under my protection until this can be sorted out. She was shaken as you can imagine and I was uncomfortable leaving her in her own home considering the circumstances." "Well, Crandle has been a member of my pack for about 125 years now. We found him unconscious in the woods of the witches here. We could smell that he was wolf so we brought him back to the den and placed him into a secure room until we had a opportunity to find out what the situation was. When he came to he was confused and couldn't remember what had happened. He didn't know why he was in the woods or anything. The only thing he could say was he couldn't transform. He could feel his wolf, but he couldn't transform. This, of course, concerned me. How would he be able to live in a pack and not transform, but he proved to be as strong as any other pack member. He was able to defeat a few transformed members even." "Really, I have never heard that happening before." "Neither had we. Our pack doctor examined him several times. He even sent his blood out to be analyzed and found nothing amiss. We couldn't figure out why he wasn't transforming or why he was just as strong as a wolf even though he was in his human form." "I thank you Alpha Tierney. If I have any further questions or concerns I trust that I can call you." "Of course. What will be done with Vincent?" "As soon as we know of his guilt or innocence I will let you know. If this was just a ploy on the part of the humans than we need to know that." "Very well. Goodbye" "Goodbye." I sat back thinking over my conversation with the Elliot and it unsettled me further. Something in this situation was not right and I really needed to figure out what it was. My mates safety depended on it. As much as I wanted to get to the bottom of this mystery I needed to be with my mate. This not knowing had my wolf on edge. I didn't want to wake her so I eased her slowly off of the sofa and cradled her gently while I made my way to our suite. Once inside I placed her on the bed and went in to take a shower. When I finished my shower I found that Natalie was awake and lying on the bed waiting patiently for me to come out. I also smelled dinner and realized just how hungry I was. I walked over to the bed and kissed her. "You're awake," I said. "Yeah. I heard someone in the other rooms. I was going to try to go back to sleep, but then I heard you shut the water off so I decided to stay awake." "Well good. Shall we have dinner?" "Are you going to put some pants on?" "No." "Oh. May I ask why not?" "Love we are not concerned with nudity here. Being naked is comfortable sometimes." "As well as distracting." "Oh I see. I am distracting you?" "Well why not get undressed and we could "distract" each other." Natalie Ch. 03 "And never eat dinner." Just then my stomach growled reminding me of just how hungry I was. "You are probably correct. Let's eat. While we eat I will tell you more of the mating ceremony." "I would rather talk about tomorrow." "What about tomorrow has you concerned?" "Well I was wondering how to explain all of the people that live here to Ronnie, she is very observant." "We will cross that bridge when and if we come to it. I think you are stalling the conversation about the ceremony. What has you concerned about it? Please tell me and I will do my best to explain it and ease your fears." "I'm not exactly afraid. I'm more embarrassed." "Embarrassed.....? By what?" "Conall I am brand new at all this sex stuff. Nobody has ever seen me naked before, well except you, and now you want me to parade around the entire pack without a stitch of clothing on, then you want to have sex with me in front of everyone, then they get to taste me. Come on that's a lot to be embarrassed about." "I do realize that sex is new to you. I also know that humans have a more chaste way of looking at such things. When you step into the circle a few things will happen. The first is I will ask the pack if they accept you as the Alpha bitch. They will respond. Then they will ask to see you fight. At this point you and I will spar. Nobody expects you to win or even last long. It is just to show them that you are willing to fight to protect them. Once that is over then one of the council elders will speak the sacred words over the altar, if we spar correctly you will only have on shredded clothing by now, and then I will place you on the altar. From here it will be like we are right here in our suite. I will kiss you and touch you and lick and nibble you. I will arouse you to the point that you will not even care that there are others there. I will make love to you traditionally, for a human, for awhile and then I will turn you onto your hands and knees, by this time the mated pairs will already be rutting and will not be interested in us anymore. When I feel you begin to orgasm I will bite you on my mark and pass the wolf gene to you at which point you will probably pass out for about a minute. When you come to you should feel your wolf. During the rest of the ceremony you will probably get horny, for which I will gladly help alleviate, and have many orgasms. The orgasm will help to make certain that we stay tied until the end of the ceremony. Once it is finished we will go to the lake to bathe and then I will bring you back to the suite. I will please you orally to help with the soreness and then we will go to sleep, if you wish." "OMG!" "What was that?" "OMG it stands for 'oh my god'." "Why are you OMGing?" "I have to fight you?" "Yes but it is not a real fight it is just to show that you are willing to fight for them." "I can't fight you. I mean I can fight don't get me wrong, but I can't fight you." "So the fighting has you concerned now?" "Well yes along with the public sex." "Well you have time to get used to it because I want to clear up this Vincent matter first." "Why?" "After the mating ceremony it is customary for the newly mated couple to go away for awhile. You humans call it a honeymoon I believe." "Yes, where would we go? "I was thinking Ireland to see where I grew up." "Really, you want to share that with me?" "I have to share that with you. I have to share everything with you." "I love you, Conall." Her saying it for the first time was sweet music to my ears, but I think it shocked and surprised her to not only have said it, but to have the feelings so quickly. "I uh I mean ummm well." "Alainn look at me. I love you too. It is nothing to be embarrassed about or even worried over. It is the way that Luna designed it." "Can you do something for me?" "Anything." "Make love to me please?" "With pleasure, alainn. With pleasure." The day of the barbecue: "Stop worrying Alainn. Everything will be fine. The pack has been given the proper protocol for today. Nobody will mess up. We will be as human as you are. Ronnie will never know that we are wolves I promise." "I'm just hoping that she likes you. I wouldn't want to loose her as a friend, but I guess I would have to because I don't think I could stand to loose you." "Well then I will make certain that you won't have to loose either of us." "What about when I become a wolf and.....?" "Stop worrying. When you saw me in the elevator did you think I was a werewolf?" "Okay okay. Point taken." "This is her place on the left. I'll go get her." "No. We'll go get her. You go nowhere alone." "It's right there. If something happens you could be there is a split second I'm sure." "I am uncomfortable with this." "I promise I won't leave your sight. If she sees you walking with me she's going to think you're some undercover woman beater or something. Trust me this way is better." "Don't leave my sight and I'm standing on the outside of the car." "Did we just compromise?" "Yes we did and it is extremely difficult for me to do so you had better move fast before I change my mind." Walking up to Ronnie's door I could feel Conall's eyes boring a hole in the back of me. I was also sure that he had some warriors somewhere nearby, but I didn't see them. "Very good Alainn." Before I even knocked the door opened and a very excited Ronnie was rushing forward. "Hey girlfriend." "Hey Ronnie, you ready I see, for once anyway." "Is that him girl?" "Yeah, he surprised me by coming to get me himself." "That's a whole lotta man there. He have any brothers?" "Yes. One you will probably meet today, Caiden, but he is married. He has others, but I'm not sure where they live." "Damn. How about some sexy coworkers?" "I have no clue. I guess we'll see when we get there." I heard a low growl in my head followed by a slight whisper of, "you will not be seeing if there are any sexy coworkers anywhere a chailin mo chroi." "Let's go," I said, "I'm in the mood for a swim." "I'm all set." "Ronnie this is Conall Faol. Conall this is my best friend since forever, Ronnie." "Cen chaoi a bhfuil tu, Ronnie?" "Huh?" "How do you do?" "Oh. I'm fine thank you. What language was that?" "Gaelic," we both said. Ronnie looked at me and then at Conall. "Since when do you speak gaelic," she asked me. "I don't. Conall sometimes uses Gaelic words when he is talking to me." "Oh yeah, like what?" "Please let us get in the car and be on our way we don't want to be late." Once inside the third degree started. "Conall Faol, that's an unusual name. Does it mean anything specific?" "Faol means wolf." "Where are you from? What do yo do?" "Ronnie!" "That is perfectly okay Alainn. I am from Ireland originally. I was born there and then my family moved here. I run Faol Inc. Once I took over my parents moved back to Ireland to enjoy their retirement." "How old are you?" "Ronnie!" "38." "Since I am making our girl here uncomfortable I just have one more question. What are your intentions with my girl, because if you're looking for some little play thing and you end up hurting her I will make you regret the day you saw her." Oh my goodness. I was officially mortified. "My intentions are pure I can assure you. It would go against my honor to use any female, but especially Natalie. I can see just how sweet and special she is. I would never do anything to hurt her. You can rest easy knowing that no harm will come to her while she is with me." She looked at him while he was speaking and then broke out into a big grin. "I like him. Now are there anymore where you came from. Don't have to be related a good friend will do." "There will be many eligible men at the barbecue." The ride to the estate was filled with comfortable chatter. Ronnie mostly talking about our college days. Telling Conall all the embarrassing stuff that we did. Conall laughing and me smiling because they seemed to get along well. As we went through the gates of the estate Ronnie let out a whistle and then turned to me and gave me what I'm sure she thought was a sly wink. I heard Conall laughing in my head. The driver, Bryant, pulled up to the front of the house and got out to let us out. "Ladies, I thought you would like to change before we head to the barbecue area. I'm sure everything has started, but there is no rush." "Yeah," Ronnie said. She couldn't stop looking around at the grounds. Then she turned to me and asked, "where's your stuff?" "It's already here. I was here earlier." Not exactly a lie. Conall ushered us into the house and again I thought Ronnie would give herself whiplash from the jerky movements of her head. We went upstairs and Conall showed Ronnie a room where she could change. As she stepped through the doorway she turned and asked me where I was going. "My room is this way. I will be back in about 15 minutes or so." "Why do you have a separate room from mine?" "When she arrived this room was not finished so I showed her to another. By the time this room was done it was time to come pick you up. Is there a problem with the room?" "Ahh no. I umm I'll be ok." "You will be perfectly safe. No one would dare bother you." "Ronnie I will change and be back in a flash I promise." I could tell she was trying to figure out what was really going on. I gave her a hug and said it was fine and I'd be back. She seemed uneasy but shook her head and went inside the room. I heard another whistle and then a 'well damn' and everything was forgotten. Conall and I walked to our rooms to change. I couldn't help thinking that this was not going to work. "Relax Natalie. Yes she is suspicious, but I think it is more about you then me. I get the impression she is not used to seeing you with a male companion." "Yes, the last time I had a boyfriend or a date was like a year ago." "Well relax. We will have a good time today." As he is talking he is taking his clothes off and putting on a pair of shorts and flip flops. This was a look I had never seen before. I couldn't take my eyes off of his chest. He was a beautiful man. "Love?" "Huh." "You are not changing clothes." "Oh ah yeah," I say as I shake my head. "Changing clothes right now." I . forgot that I didn't have any of my duits with me and turned to Conall who was holding up two very nice two piece suits, one red and one blue. "When did you get those?" "I had Melissa run an errand while we were out." "They are pretty. How did she know my size?" "Guess." I decided on a the red two piece with a red and black sarong. I had my back turned to Conall, but could feel his eyes on me. When I turned around I saw heat in his eyes. "Oh no. We have to go. We have a guest." "So." That was all I heard and he was on me. Before I could think he had removed my sarong and bikini bottoms along with his shorts and was sliding into my body. I knew I was wet because seeing him in just shorts and aroused me. This coupling was intense. He moved inside my body with long strokes that had me going crazy. "Cum for me love. Cum for me." All I could do was hold on for dear life when my orgasm hit me. I felt him bite into his mark and my orgasm seemed to peak again. In my orgasmic haze I feel Conall swell and then he cums. He lets out a low growl that I can feel in my chest and then I feel him lick my neck to close the little punctures in my neck. "Oh no. I forgot about your mark. How am I going to hide that from Natalie?" "That's what you think of at this moment?" "I'm sorry Conall, but we have to think about it. Werewolf remember? Nobody outside can know. If she sees that mark then I have to explain it. "Have you never heard of cover up make up?" "That won't upset you? Me covering your mark." "Well I don't like it. I understand it, but I don't like it. My wolf is complaining about other males not knowing you're ours, but any male here will know who you belong too. You are saturated with my scent. That calms us a little." "Thank you for doing this for me." "Anything, mo ghra, I would do anything for you" I went to the bathroom and wiped in between my legs and then I applied my concealer. I could still see it there, but it was not as noticeable. Looking at myself one last time in the mirror I believed myself to be presentable. I pulled my hair to the side with the mark for further cover and used a rubberband to hold it in place. Taking a deep cleansing breath I went back to the room, took Conall's offered hand and stepped out into the hall. "Relax it will be a wonderful day." "You promise?" "Yes, I promise. You will have a lovely day with your friend. The pack will get to interact with you and once Ronnie is gone we will show you how to really party." "I still have work tomorrow." "We will discuss that after the party." Uh oh that didn't sound good, but I decided to wait until after the barbecue to discuss it. I knocked on Ronnie's door and heard her yell, "coming". We instantly feel into a fit of laughter because we had on the exact same bathing suit top in the same color. Wiping tears from my eyes I decided that we were going to have a good time today no matter what. Natalie Ch. 04 Enjoy!!! The barbecue was so much fun and the food was good. As I watched Ronnie play volleyball with a few of the teenagers I heard Conall chuckling and turned to find out why. "What's so funny?" "Bryant wants to know if he could approach Ronnie." "Why would he ask that?" "He is interested in her." "Oh. Oh. What did you say?" "I told he could try." "Well that should be interesting." "Would you like to take a swim with me?" "Why sure. Actually that would be great I feel kinda sticky." We took off towards the lake walking hand in hand. I glanced over towards Ronnie to see that Bryant had taken the place of a member on her team. The day went off without a single problem. When it was time to take Ronnie home she was all giggles. She couldn't stop talking about everything. Before too long we were pulling up to her house. I could tell she had had a wonderful time because she didn't even ask or wonder if I was going home or tell me to call her when I got there. Conall asked Bryant to walk her to her door and to make certain that it was safe for her to enter. Once that was done we were on our way back to the estate. "Well, alainn, it would seem that everything went extremely well." "It would seem so. Is Bryant interested in Ronnie as his mate or just as a date?" "Just as a date. If he thought she was his mate it would have been difficult to get him to leave." "Oh, well I guess that's okay. He would never hurt her would he?" "No he would never do anything to hurt her." "Good. Well you said you were going to show me how wolves really partied so what's on the agenda?' "Oh well since they have eaten, most of the pack will probably go for a run, some will fuck, there will be traditional dancing from both the males and females. You may even get to see some sparring." "Sounds interesting. Conall, thank you for today. I had a wonderful time. It was nice to get to see everyone at the same time and especially see you so relaxed." "I am glad you had a good time, but the night is still young my love. I plan to show you an even better time werewolf style." When we pulled into the estate I saw wolves everywhere. Conall was right, they were running through the trees and rutting like crazy. I just stared with my mouth wide open. I had never seen anything like it, but they looked so free and happy. Conall and I went back to our seats to watch all the activity going on when a beta approached. "Your Highness, Queen Alpha some of the pack wish to know if they could dance and if you two would like to participate?" "Yes they may dance, but we will just watch this time," Conall said. The man bowed and walked back to a group. I heard a cheer go up and then music start to play. The men started first with a sort of tribal dance. It was amazing for me to watch because they moved so gracefully and in total sync. The men moved back and suddenly the women were dancing. The moves were quite suggestive. Each of the females stood in front of a man and rub her rear over his crotch. "Conall, are these pairs mated?" "No they are all unmated. Why?" "Just wondering." My attention was on the moves of the women when I noticed that one of the men was dancing alone. I looked for whoever he was to be his partner and saw that she was rubbing her hands over her body and staring straight at Conall. I watched for a few moments and then glanced at Conall who was watching me. Before I could even understand what I was doing I had ran over to the girl and punched her in the face. When she fell to the ground I jumped on her chest and had my hands around her throat. While applying pressure I leaned down to her ear and spoke in a calm quiet voice, "Mine. If I see you looking at him like that again I will choke the life from you. Are we clear?" She didn't respond she just stared at me. Since I didn't hear an answer I applied more pressure. Then I realized that it was the girl from the gym. She had a look of pure hatred on her face. I was new to this whole Queen Alpha stuff, but I was quite certain that she was challenging me on some level so I punched her again. Leaning down I asked her again, "ARE WE CLEAR?" She dropped her eyes and said, "yes Madame Alpha, we are clear." I got up off of her body and saw that everybody was staring at us. I turned and went back to my seat beside Conall and sat down. After a few seconds everybody went back to what they were doing and I used our connection and said, "I thought you said I wouldn't be challenged by anyone you slept with?" "I never slept with her. That is Gwen she only just turned 21 a month ago." "What does her age have to do with anything?" "It is unlawful to bed a female until she is 21." "Oh. Well what the hell was that she was doing? She had that come fuck me look on her face." "I have no idea. She has never acted that way before. I was surprised by your reaction though." "Why? You are my man and she had to be put in her place." "Your response was correct, I am just surprised that you did it." "Even in the human world a woman never lets another woman just flirt with her man. Especially not right in front of her. She was damned disrespectful." "How did you know she was suppose to submit to you." "Submit. I didn't I wanted her to understand that I would beat the shit out of her if she tried it again." "You wanted her to submit." "Ok then I wanted her to submit." "As Alpha, nobody has the right to stare you in the eyes except another Alpha. That is considered a challenge and must be dealt with swiftly. You did well alainn. I am proud of you." "Thanks I guess." I looked down at my watch and saw it was close to midnight and decided to call it a night. I had work in the morning. I told Conall that I was heading in for a shower and then bed so I would be able to get up for work and I saw him tense slightly. "We need to discuss you going to work tomorrow." "I agree." Conall called for Caiden and told him we would be going in and that they could stay out for a while longer, but not by much, they and to wake for work in the morning too. Once in our suite I spoke first. "Conall, I don't think it would be good if I had your betas following me at work tomorrow. How would I explain that to my bosses? 'Oh I was attacked and now I have these bodyguards'." "I'm glad you said that because I was going to tell you that instead of taking betas with you you weren't going." "Excuse me. You don't get to tell me that I can't go to work. I have a job to do and I'll be damned if you or anybody is going to keep me from doing it." "I am Alpha......... "Don't give me that alpha stuff. You said I was an alpha too and that I was your equal. You don't boss around your equal. I'm going to work in the morning just like I have been for the past three years. I am going to do my job just like you have to do your job." "I am not in danger." "Neither am I. Listen for a minute. Why do you think he waited until I was at home to try and take me. Because he can't do it at the office. Too many witnesses. I will be safe as long as I am in the office. When my work is done you can pick me up in my office and we can come home together." "NO!" "YES. I won't be budged on this." "Neither will I, alainn." I took a deep breath and tried again. "Conall, how would you explain my bodyguards to the president of the company? What could you possibly tell him that would make it ok to have to really big men following me around all day?" "I don't care about what your bosses think. I only care that you are safe." "I know and I love you for it, but your way won't work." Rubbing his hand across his face I could tell he saw the logic of what I was saying, but didn't want to give in. "Ok here's what I am willing to do. I will not send two betas with you only one...... I start shaking my head immediately. "Hear me out. I send one and he stays in your office while you are at your meeting. He only comes out when it is time to come home. I will still be at my lawyers office upstairs. You will be driven to and from work because that parking garage is dangerous, too dark. That is the best I am willing to offer. If you don't take that you don't go." I knew that that was the best I was going to get so even though I hated be coddled I relented. "Okay. I still don't like it. "You must take this man as a serious threat. I spoke to his alpha and this is not an ordinary Were love. He is an enigma even to his own pack. Until he is gone or dead you will follow my instructions to the letter. If not then it is confinement to our rooms for you." What is it about men that makes them think that it's okay to just boss women around. I don't like and I definitely won't respond well to it. I slowly turn and walk out the bedroom door. I am headed for the stairs when Conall grabs me by my wrist and spins me towards him. "Where are you going?" I don't say anything. "I asked you a question." Still nothing. He cocks his head to the side looking just like a dog and then he turns still holding my wrist and walks back to the room pretty much dragging me with him. Once inside and with the door closed he turns to me again and in his big bad alpha voice he asks, "WHERE WERE YOU GOING?" I speak as calmly as possible. "Home." "You are home." "No because if I were at home I could make decisions about my life. If I were at home I wouldn't be told that I couldn't leave my room if I disobeyed. So you see I am not at home. This is quite obviously your home. You control everything and I am just suppose to listen and obey." With that I turn again and walk to the door. This time before I even make it to the door he grabs me and spins me around. I see emotions play across his face that I don't really understand. "Natalie, you must understand that it would kill me if something happened to you. Let me protect you." "You aren't just trying to protect me Conall you're trying to control me. I won't let you do that. I am going to work tomorrow to do my job. I will compromise and take a beta, I will not leave the building without him and whatever the other two things were, but I won't stand for you trying to lock me away. I get that this could be dangerous, I do, but humans live with danger everyday. I could be riding in the car and it gets hit by a bus. You can't protect me from everything. I will keep my distance from Crandle. I promise, just don't try to control my every move." "I hear you. I will try. It won't be easy. The instinct to protect is very strong. I will do my best. Don't ever try to leave me again." "Don't go all bossy with me again." "I can't promise that it will never happen again, but I can promise I will try." "That's all I can ask for," I say kissing him on the tip of his nose. "I am going to shower. Care to join me?" "I would like nothing more, but I have some work that I need to get done if I am to accompany you tomorrow." "Okay, I'll just be a few minutes. Did we just have our first fight?" "Yes we did." "I hear makeup sex is really intense." "Dana cailin." "What does that mean?" "Naughty girl." I turn and walk into the bathroom thinking that I was becoming a naughty girl or dana cailin. Conall Sitting at my desk, while Natalie is in the shower, I wonder why she has this need to be so independent. Are all human females like that? It has to be something more to it then just wanting to maintain her identity. I decide that while she is asleep I will do a little scanning of her mind. I want to know about her childhood and adolescence. If I asked she wouldn't tell me everything so I will dig into her mind to figure out what drives her so hard. When she finishes her shower I decide to take one. She is already in bed sleeping when I come back to the room. I climb in the bed and I get as close to her as possible. She wakes a little and says, "goodnight Conall" and drifts back to sleep. I nudge lightly into her mind. What I find here are basic thoughts. She is thinking about today and how much fun she had. I push a little deeper and she moves slightly. Putting her into a deeper sleep I move further in. Here is where I find her fear over the situation with Vincent and some apprehensions about pack life and how fast we are moving. I go even further and I hit a wall. I push harder, nothing. I have never come across a human that can shield from me. I push a little harder and she moans so I slowly withdraw. This is highly unusual. Humans usually aren't able to withstand the mental powers of Weres or vampires. I lay watching her sleep and I try to figure out who Miss Natalie Renae Coldwell really is. Vincent Crandle Natalie is no where to be found. Someone has been watching her house for the entire weekend and she hasn't been home. No movement at all. She hasn't been back to pick up her mail or anything. I need to come up with a new plan. She has to be the key to me breaking the spell. For all these years I haven't been able to shift and now I am so close. I can feel my wolf salivating at the thought of being able to run through the woods. I have been lying to the Alpha since he found me in the woods. I couldn't tell him why I was in the woods of the witches that night. I never revealed the real reason I can't change. I would never have been allowed into the pack and I needed to be there for my protection just in case the witches weren't satisfied with just cursing me. Taking on one wolf wasn't a big deal, but they would never take on a pack. Being made a beta was an added bonus. I have been able to do research into finding the way to get rid of the weight that I have been forced to carry. I wonder what Natalie will think or what she'll do when I finally have her. Maybe I'll keep her. She is very beautiful. I could have a great deal of fun with that body of hers. If she is as powerful as I suspect she is then I won't need all her blood just some will do. She can take the place of Naal. Since I couldn't have her I will have her great great great great granddaughter. Just the thought of it makes my cock hard. Oh the deliciously wonderful things I will do to her. Tomorrow I will have her followed to where she is staying or maybe I'll just have them grab her. Either way before the weeks end she will be here with me and I will be free. Natalie This time I can tell that I am in a dream. I can still feel the fear, but it's not overwhelming me like before. I can see a house just ahead of me so I make my way there. Just as I get to the door it opens and an older lady ushers me in. "Naal, where have you been child? You know you shouldn't be out in the woods this late. The liath is probably seeking you. Come inside quickly." The woman's accent was Scottish. Then I realize that she is seeing this Naal instead of me. I step across the threshold and close the door. She takes a seat in front of the fire place and I take a moment to look around. It is a small one room house. There are two pallets made up on the floor by the back wall, a small table with two chairs and a chair next to the fire place. I move to sit by her on the floor next to the woman in the chair. "I am sorry mama. I will be more careful." I also notice that I have a Scottish accent. "Child you must remain vigilant. The liath is evil. I have never known one with that much darkness within. If he gets you he will never let you go. It grieves my soul to think of you living that existence. Being within these walls is what is best. The liath cannot cross the threshold here. Well, enough of that, are you hungry child? There is stew there in the pot." I get up and move towards the table to get a bowl when I hear howling coming from outside, but it is very nearby. Suddenly the door is kicked in and there is a man standing there. I move towards the woman, mama, but before I can she is standing pointing her finger at the man and speaking words that I don't understand. The intruder falls to the floor holding his head in pain and I see blood running from his mouth. I am so focused on the man on the floor that I don't see the other man coming until I hear a scream. I looked towards mama and she is laying on the floor with a bow in her chest. I rush to her, but she tells me to run. I am crying now and shaking my head, but she pushes me away and tells me to run again. When I look towards the door the man is still standing there. What happens next is utterly unbelievable to me. I raise my hands and I push the man without touching him. I see him moving backwards and I run. I run as hard and as fast as I can. I hear the howling behind me, but I keep moving. I trip over something and fall. I jump up and keep moving. The howling is getting closer and closer and then it's on me. I feel the scratch of claws and I feel the weight on my back. I scream, but never stop moving. I will myself to continue forward. I run and I run. I can't see what's chasing me I only know I have too keep running and then I hit a wall. At least I thought it was a wall it turned out to be the man from the house. He grabs me and turns me around and I see a big grey wolf and then the wolf transforms into Vincent Crandle. I wake up. Again, I have the feeling that this is more of a memory or a vision than a dream. I notice that I'm in our room alone so I get up and seek out Conall. I find him in his study and I tell him about what I dreamed. "And you are certain that this wolf turned into Crandle?" "Yes. I think the women may have been witches." "Believe it or not it makes sense because the Tierney Alpha said they found Crandle in the woods of the witches. My question is why are you having these dreams or visions? We must talk to the council about this." Conall made a mental call to all the elders to meet us in his study. Once he gave them a run down of what I had been experiencing Davis made a statement. "Is it possible that this woman is a distant relative of yours?" "I don't know what my family history is. I never knew my father and my mother died when I was 14 and I've been pretty much on my own since then. I don't know if I have any other relatives because my mother never spoke of any. I became a ward of the state and was placed in a few foster homes, but I never really clicked with any of them so I left. I couldn't even begin to tell you where to start looking for any information about me. Maybe we should look for Naal instead." "We'll get right on it. Give us a couple of days and check back with us." "Thank you elders." "It is our pleasure to serve you," After the council left I went and sat on the sofa. I was really tired again. Conall came over and sat with me looking concerned. "You don't look well alainn." "I'm just really tired." "How about I draw a hot bath and we just relax?" "That sounds incredible." "Before we go upstairs I wanted to talk to you about something." "Sure." "Being a werewolf comes with some special gifts for us. I am more usual then most because I can do several thing." "Like?" "I can move things with my mind, I can make you sleep, I can tap into our feelings and in some cases intensify then, and I can walk through your mind when you are relaxed or I am allowed. I am telling you this because as my mate you need to be aware of the things I can do and because I have had to use my gifts on you more than once." "When and why?" "The first time was after you were attacked at your house. You were in shock and I put you to sleep. You looked so scared and I didn't know what else to do. The second time was last night. While you were sleeping I tried to walk through your mind to find out why you were so adamant about not needing to be coddle and protected. "Why would you do that? Why wouldn't you just ask me about me? Sneaking around in my mind is just plain wrong. Hey wait can you influence feelings or plant ideas in somebodies mind. I mean how do I know that what I feel for you is my own feelings? You might have planted the thoughts in my mind or something." Natalie Ch. 04 "I can not influence what you feel and I am kind of hurt that you would even imply that. I can share what you're feeling, but I can't make you think, feel, or act in any specific way." "Don't even try to make me feel bad. You are the one that decided to keep your "gifts" from me and then use them on me to boot. How would you feel if I told you that I could do what you do and that I used my powers against you? I'm sure that you wouldn't be all 'okay no harm no foul'. "I was seeking information that would help me to understand you a little better. I am sorry that I did not tell you sooner." I believed him, but I was still a little angry at him. "Well what did you find?" "Nothing, you were blocking me. I could get the superficial stuff, but when I delved deeper you blocked me. I am not sure if you were doing it on purpose, but I have never come across a human that could block me." "So....." "Alainn I think you may be a dormant witch." "A dormant witch!?" "Yes." "What the hell is a dormant witch?" "Basically it is a witch that doesn't know they're a witch. Their powers are bound or never have never manifested. Some never find out about their powers, while others may come into them very late in life. I don't want you to worry about any of this right now. We can wait for the elders to give us more information. I just thought I should mention it so if it is true you will not be totally blind sided by it. Let us go up for that bath." He picks me up and carries me up the stairs. I look at him and as much as I want to stay angry with him I can't. Damn this mating pull. "Alainn I made a purchase for you earlier today it is over by my desk in my satchel." I walk over and pick up his bag. Opening it I find my favorite white wine. I can't help but smile I needed this so bad. A hot bath, a glass or two of wine, my sexy man. I was in heaven. Once Conall had started the water he ran downstairs and got two glasses, a cork screw and a bucket of ice. He put the wine in the ice and then proceeded to light candles. I stripped down as did he and we climbed into the water. It felt sooooo good. I poured us both a glass of wine and then I turned to him and said, "Okay, you have these gifts. I want you to promise me that you will never use them on me without telling me before hand unless of course I am hurt or in shock or something. If you promise to do that for me then I promise I will try to reign in my need to assert my independence. Deal?" "I think I could do that. You have a deal. Now lay back and enjoy your wine." After a couple of glasses of wine I started to get a little worked up. I placed my glass on the table next to the ice bucket and turned and took his glass and placed it there as well. "Mate what are you doing?" "I wanna play," I said. Then I leaned in and ran my tongue around his nipple. I heard a sharp intake of breathe and continued. I was not well versed in the seduction of a man so I was just a little nervous, but his reactions made me think I was doing something right. I reached between us and stroke him. His head fell back and he let out the ragged moan and breathlessly called out Luna. I leaned forward and kissed him. I wanted to be the aggressor this time and so I pushed for entry into his mouth. I explored completely, loving the taste of him mixed with the wine. Holding his manhood in my hand I raised my hips and placed him at my entrance and slowly lowered myself down delighting in the feel of every inch of him as he slide into my body. "By the moon goddess you are so tight and wet." I moved up and down at a slow pace. It was sweet torture for both of us. Conall lowered his mouth to my breast and made slow circles around my nipples and then he would gently bite and then lick moving from one breast to the other. I could feel my release coming and so could he. . "Open your mind to me Natalie. I want to share these feelings with you." I let everything slide from my mind except him and I could feel the sensations that he was feeling and he could feel what I was feeling. I could feel his need to bite me and I turned my head so he could reach his mark. It was so incredible. I could feel the need rising in him, I could feel his orgasm building. I didn't have to tell him I was close because I knew he could feel it. We came at the same time. He leaned in and bite my neck and both of us went off like rockets. Not only was I riding my orgasm, but I was riding his as well. It was the most intense thing that I have ever experienced. We seemed to crest and fall and then crest again. Once we were able to think and move Conall spoke, "Ta gra agam duit mo amhain ghra." "What?" "I love you my only love." "Ta gra agam duit mo amhain ghra." "Very good. Let's get out and move to the bedroom. I want to taste you before I take you again. You don't have work tomorrow and I plan to make sure you sleep well into the afternoon." That is exactly what he did. He was insatiable. We made love on the bed, the sofa, the floor, his desk. It was a night that I won't soon forget. When he finally allowed himself to become tied with me I knew that we were done for the night. I was going to be sore in the morning, but it was well worth it. I went to sleep completely satisfied, happy, and in love. I would deal with Vincent Crandle and Conall's dormant witch theory tomorrow. Tonight I just wanted to be wrapped in this man's arms safe and protected. That was not to be as soon as I dozed off I was pulled into Naal's world again. I am now inside a cave. There is a fire burning in the center that gives off an eerie light. I can feel that I am not alone. I feel the burning of the claw marks and the scrapes on the knees. Somewhere to my left by towards the opening of the cave I hear him speak. "You know you brought this on yourself don't you? If you would have just agreed to be my mate than your mother would still be alive." "I will never agree to be your mate. You are evil and darkness lives within you. Why would I ever give myself to you?" "Well now your mother is dead and I will have you anyway." "What has caused you to become this thing that you are? You were not always this way. I can remember us having fun together as children." "You rejected me that's what happened." "I never rejected you. We are not to be. You know I am not your intended mate and yet you still insist that I am. Would I not feel it if it were true? Would I not have some feeling towards you that would be romantic? I don't feel that way for you and you have to except that. I had love once and you took that away from me and nearly cost me my daughter. I will never give myself to you! You have to except this and maybe you can find your mate." "No I don't. If you won't be my mate you will be my victim." He makes leap for me and again I raised my hands and I push him back with all my strength. He flew against the wall with a thud, but before he could regain some footing I made the fire blow in his direction. I was hoping that would hold him there while I made my exscape. Again I find myself running in the darkness of the woods. I push and push my legs willing them to go faster. I just needed to get to a clearing. If I could just get from under the trees I could send out a witch's cry. If I could do that I may have a chance. I don't hear sounds behind me so I keep pushing. I stumble into the open space and cry out with a loud voice, "Sister witches I call to you for help this dark night. I need you, I am being sought by the liath. If you hear my call on the wind please lend me your aide." As I am running I can hear them answering my call. This gives me courage and I continue to move. Suddenly I can hear him coming. Then my perception changes. I am no longer the one running I am now watching as Naal stumbles through the trees. With a start I realize that this is my first dream. I can now hear others callling out to Naal, but I knew they would be too late. The liath comes flying through the trees. He is on her back, I see the deep claw marks in her flesh. He is ripping and tearing at her body. I look away from the bloody sight before me and I see the other witches coming thru the trees. I know that they are too late to save Naal, but they continue forward. One woman steps away from the group. One that I assumed was the leader. She looks at the grey wolf and she speaks, "You have spilled innocent blood this night in our woods. Your punishment for all eternity is to live with the liath prowling inside you, but never will in manifest. You have been forever cursed by me and my coven." Then she blows some type of dust at the wolf just as it leaps for her. While in midair the wolf becomes the man. He falls to the ground unconscious. Then the woman looks directly at me and says, "Daughter of Naal you are the key to his release. You must learn the way of your blood so that this curse will never be lifted." The witches walk towards Naal. They bend and they pick her broken body from the forest floor and move towards the trees. The leader turns and tells me again, "learn the way of your blood" and then she is gone and I wake up. What the fuck was that? Natalie Ch. 05 Sorry it took so long. My computer crashed and I lost everything. I had to start all over with my thesis. Here is the next installment. Enjoy. Anybody interested in editing please email me. Thanks. "Conall Conall wake up." "Yes, love. Is something wrong?" "I just had another dream." He sat up and propped up a couple of pillows then pulled me back against his chest. "I am listening." "I didn't ask before, but what does liath mean?" "It means grey. Why?" "That's what the witches called Vincent, the liath. He is a large grey wolf. I saw what happened to cause him not to be able to change. He was obsessed with Naal to the point that he killed her husband and tried to kill her child. Her mother put some type of protection spell around their house so he couldn't enter so he had the others to do it. This time I was in a cave and used magic to escape. I saw her, I was her, running through the woods. I called out to other witches, but before they could reach me/her he had killed her. It was really weird though because in the beginning I was Naal then once we got to the point of the first dream I became me again. I watched him rip her apart then I saw the witches curse him. He is to spend eternity able to feel the wolf, but never to transform. Then the lead witch spoke to me! She called me daughter of Naal and said that I was the key to his release and that I had to learn my blood to stop him." "A person in your dream actually spoke to you?" "Yeah. So I guess your theory about me being a dormant witch must be right." "It is more right than either of us realize. My love you are a what we call a taibreamh draiodoir mna, or dream witch. Your line must have been very powerful." "Not powerful enough cause they're all dead." "You said she told you that you had to learn your blood to stop him." "Yes." "So I guess that it is a good thing that the elders are researching your family tree." "I guess so." "Natalie I don't want you going back to work until we have this all worked out. I don't trust Crandle and if this all pans out to be true then he is after you to break the curse. There's no telling what he would do to you." "How's this for a compromise. I will talk to Mr. Benton and see if I can work from home. I have video conferencing on my computer. I could send a messenger to get my files. If he says no then I'll take a leave." "I never thought you would agree to it." "Well I only part way agreed." "You didn't throw a fit though. " "I'm still too tired from earlier and I have this whole dormant witch thing going around in my mind." "Note to self: keep mate too tired to win arguments." "Ha Ha. I have to admit that all this has me a little afraid. Too much to soon. Could all this be related, you know me meeting you, Crandle and the buyout, the dreams or memories? Hey do you think he orchestrated the buy out? From what I saw in that dream he's really fucked up in the head." "If he did orchestrate the buy out then the Tierney Alpha is in on it with him and I don't think he is. It's more likely that he somehow managed to get Elliot to send him to America to head it up though." "That's creepy. So he's been looking for me or something? That's just weird." "I want to do something." "Ummmmmmmmm." "Not that. At least not right now. I want to try to go through your mind again. Maybe if your aware the shield won't be up or not as strong. Hopefully it will give some clues into your life. Maybe a hint about your powers, your mother anything that can help." "If you think it will help I guess so. It won't hurt will it?" "No. I will put you in a semi conscious state so you will be able to hear me and hopefully the shield won't be as strong. I'll just watch your memories like a movie as they come. I'll be in your subconscious mind and may have to guide you a little." "Werewolf hypnosis." "Something like that, but a human can't see your thoughts. I will be able to and if I'm lucky you'll respond enough to allow me to guide you a little." "Okay, let's do it." "Okay love close your eyes and doze for me." This feels kind of weird to me. I can feel Conall in my head guiding me backwards. It's like he's rewinding a movie. I can see everything that has happened over the last three days. Is he talking to me? "Let me see you in college love." Wow look at that ridiculous hairdo. Not a good look I can't believe we dressed like that. Wait until I remind Ronnie about that ugly purple velor jumpsuit she thought was so sexy. Ewwww. I can see all the time I spent studying while Ronnie was partying. She had fun in college. I wasn't there for fun, I had work to do. I had to make good grades. I get to a memory of Ronnie introducing me to that loser Derrick. What a sorry ass he was. We never even made it to the first date. Jack ass! "Show me what high school was like for you Natalie?" High school. I hated high school. I don't want to remember high school. My mom died when I had just started. There's our old house. We used to have a great time there, just me and her. She was so cool. She used to always seem to know when I was coming or when the phone would ring. We did the craziest stuff late at night. She would want to go swimming late at night or wake up and eat oat meal cookies and coke at 2 in the morning. Then one day she was gone. I flash to that day. I am walking to the house and I see a strange woman standing on the porch and a cop car parked at the curb. She meets me at the walkway and tells me that I have to go with her. She wouldn't even let me go in the house to get my stuff. She tells me there was an accident and that I my mom was hurt really bad, that she didn't make it and that I would be going into foster care. I hated her and the police officer. I just stared straight ahead and never said another word to her. I stopped listening and I replayed memories from my favorite times with my mother. I changed schools then and went to my first foster home. It was a middle aged couple with two other foster kids, a little girl and a boy about my age. It wasn't so bad in the beginning. I still only spoke when necessary. Then there is darkness like somebody turned out the lights. I can feel Conall pushing a little harder and speaking to me. "Love I need you to relax and let me go further. I am here and will help you no matter what we find." I feel my heart rate pick and I get that cold clammy feeling you get when you're really afraid, but I relax so he can push forward. I see my old crappy room. I'm laying on my bed and Frank, the other foster kid, came in. He is asking me a question. What is he saying? I try to focus on his voice. "Did they tell you what happened to your mom? They said it was bloody in the house and that's why you couldn't go in. They said she was ripped up like something from a horror film. She was in pieces." I'm watching this exchange and I can remember it. I can remember him saying this stuff to me. He said they believed it was the work of a serial killer because she was the ninth woman they found hacked up like that, but they couldn't figure out a murder weapon. He said that the guy was traveling the US hacking women to pieces and nobody knew who he was and that he was going to come and get me too. That's when I looked at him and I threw him across the room into a wall. He slumped to the floor unconscious. I was so scared that I grabbed my jacket and ran. I slept on a park bench for a couple of days and then the police found me and they took me back to my foster parents. I wouldn't stay there though I just kept running. I remember being in four different homes now. I thought it was only two, but it was four. I saw myself using my powers a few times. I moved things and I could throw people around. I saw myself start a fire in a trash can, I'm a fire starte. I got really mad once with a girl in school and hit her with some kind of force from my hands. She feel to the floor and cracked her head wide open. Blood was everywhere. They came and took her to the hospital and when they asked me what happened I lied. She couldn't remember what happened, but she never was mean to me again. I guess that was why I didn't know I was a witch. I just buried it deep like everything else and never thought about it again. 11th grade was the beginning of a turn around for me. I was in the last foster home. A woman name Miranda Blake. She was tough. She told me she wouldn't tolerate my crap and that she knew I had had a tough break, but that was no excuse for messing up my future. She told me she expected me to apply myself and get good grades and she wouldn't except anything less. She was strong and capable. She was a successful woman with her own house and car. Nobody controlled her and I liked that. Her life was her own. I remember now how I decided that she was everything I wanted to be. That's when the Natalie of today was born. I gained an overwhelming need to be in control. I didn't ever want to be dependant on anybody. "Natalie wake up." "Wow that was kinda intense," I said. "It helped to explain some things. We can talk about it tomorrow though. Right now I want to hold my mate and sleep." "We can talk about it now." "No I want to think some more about everything I saw and also give you sometime to process it. You remembered some really harsh stuff. Let's just relax and go over it tomorrow." "Conall I appreciate that you want to help me, but we don't have to wait until tomorrow. Honestly, I am okay. We can talk now." "I am not trying to protect you if that is what you are thinking. I really need to think about what I saw. Your memories raised some questions for me." "Like....?" "You won't let this go will you?" "Nope." "Okay. You remembered that somebody told you that your mom was ripped apart. I wanted to do some checking to see if Crandle was anywhere in the US when it happened to her and the others. Or even if there were others." "And...........?" "I was also going to check with the elders to find out what is the safest way to bring your powers out. I don't want to cause you any trauma in doing it." "Were you planning on asking me to be apart of any of this?" "Yes I was. At least the magic part. I wanted to do the research on your mother and the others alone. I wanted to shield you from as much of the unpleasantness as possible." "I appreciate that, but I think I have shielded myself from the unpleasantness too much. If I had dealt with this stuff when I was younger I would have a handle on who I am and not be completely loss now. At least in respect to me being a witch." "Alainn I am afraid that you are going to crack. This was a lot of information to take in or remember. At some point the weight of it all is going to be too much. I just want to give you time to digest it all and then deal with it." "I know and I'm scared, but I need a distraction." "We can deal with it together." "I never had anyone to help me deal with problems since my mother died. Ronnie is my best friend and there are things that I never even shared with her. I don't really know how to do that, how to be open and vulnerable with another person. It scares me." "It is quite alright, I will teach you. You are not alone anymore Natalie. You have me to help you through all of the really hard stuff and you have the pack that will always be there too." That's when I started crying. I cried for my mother and my lost childhood and everything else that was out of whack. The only thing that I was certain about was Conall. I held on to him for dear life as I finally purged myself of all of my anger, hate, and insecurities. He just sat there and held me and stroked my hair. Conall My heart hurt. My wolf was howling in agony as we watch our beloved break. I didn't want her to have to experience the pain that she was dealing with now. She was trying to be so strong and brave, but I could feel the despair, uncertainty, and fear through our bond. There were so many question still left unanswered. Did Crandle kill her mother? What about the other women that had been murdered? In order for Natalie to be a dream witch her blood line had to have been very powerful. How do we deal with that? From what I saw in her memories she is powerful, but has no control. She would have to learn control and right now she felt anything but. I needed to protect Natalie from this Crandle. He very well could have killed those women and could want to kill Natalie too. There are way too many unanswered questions and loose ends. I watched Natalie work through her emotions. I could feel her determination through our bond. She was determined to find the answers to the many questions that hung in the air. Pulling herself together she asked,"Conall, do you think he killed my mother? It that possible?" "Yes, I think that it is possible. I think he is responsible for the deaths of all of those women. I also think they were somehow related to you or to the original coven that cursed him. There is much that we need to know and much that we need to do." "I need to learn about my witchcraft don't I?" "I am afraid so Alainn. I am not sure how to do that though. You are the only witch that I know. I saw that you could harness the elements of fire and wind and wind maybe you are an elemental witch as well. If that is the case then it maybe as simple as concentrating on that element, but I don't know." "Elemental witch......you mean like wind, water, fire, and earth?" "Yes. If I am correct you should be able to manipulate those elements and maybe even manifest them. I will take you out into the woods in a clearing that is there to work on this later. That is the best I can do for now. First, we need to figure out if Crandle murdered these women. "How?" "Well we will have to find the names of the women. We start with your mother. If it becomes too painful for you than I will assign someone to get us the information." "No, I need to know if he did this." "Very well. We will need to travel to the police station in Paterson for some information. I will make the arrangements." "When do you think we will be leaving?" "Tomorrow. I want to get started as soon as possible. The more information we have the better. I going down to my office to begin making the arrangements and to talk to Caiden. You try and rest some more. It shouldn't take very long. When I come back we can go for a walk, take a swim, anything you want to help you relax." "A swim would be nice." "Okay then you rest and I will wake you when I am done." As I walk out of the room I mentally call Caiden. "Yeah Conall." "Can you meet me in my study?' "Sure what's up?" "We'll go over it when you get to the office." "Okay. On my way." Once Caiden was there I filled him in on all that had transpired. "I am requesting that you and Melissa go with us to Paterson along with 4 or 5 strong warriors. I will take no chance with her safety." "Of course. You should do no less. What are you two going to do about her magic?" "I don't know. I had suggested us going out into the clearing pass the lake so she could work on developing them. That way she won't be in danger of hurting somebody. From what I saw in her memories she is very powerful. She just needs to learn control. In the past anger was her trigger." "Leave it to you to have a witch for a mate." "I wouldn't have it any other way. Has the council made any headway?" "Don't know. That could take a while." "I suppose you're right. I will let you know when we will be leaving as soon as I have made the arrangements. We will need two cars." "Got it. We'll be ready." With that he walked out and I went to work making travel arrangements. I could still feel some sadness from Natalie, but it was considerably less. Her emotions went from sadness, to anger, to utter disbelief. My wolf was just plain mad with rage. He wanted to find Crandle and rip out his throat. I felt confident that we would have the answers by tomorrow night. Once my suspicions were confirmed then we would have our revenge. He would pay for causing so much pain. I was going to make certain that he suffered for the pain he caused not only my mate, but the other women that were murdered. Natalie Laying on the bed my mind was all over the place. I was a witch. My mother was a witch and because of what we were my mother was, possibly, murdered. Seeing how Crandle had ripped Naal apart I could only imagine what he had done to my mother and what he wanted to do to me. It scared me, but it motivated me as well. I would have to make sure he wouldn't be able to do that to someone else. My magic was the key to stopping him. I would throw myself into learning like I did when I was in school. I would not be a victim. Vincent Crandle Natalie is taking a leave of absence from her job, probably at the request of Faol. This makes my plans harder to pull off. My business here is almost done and I am sure that my alpha will want me back in Scotland. "Dexter," I called. "Yes sir." "I going to have to move quickly with Natalie. In her file there is the address of her friend, Veronica. Bring her to me. She is going to be the bait that gets Natalie to me." "Yes sir. I will take care of it." Natalie Ch. 06 Natalie "Arise love." "Why?" "The council has some information concerning your family history." "Oh, ok. Be ready in 5." I have never gotten showered and dress so fast in my life. I ran down the stairs to the conference room and was greeted by Conall, Caiden and the entire council, all of whom stood to greet me. "Good morning Queen Alpha." "Good morning Alpha Natalie" "Good morning everyone." I walked over to Conall and gave him a quick peck and made my way to an empty chair. "No Natalie you must sit here, next to me. As an Alpha your seat is always at the head of the table next to me." "Oh, ok," I said as I made my way towards Conall. Once I had taken my seat the others did the same. Aalish began to speak. "Your highness as you know the Alpha asked us to research your family history. We have an extensive archive here and what we don't have the historian has. You are part Scottish and part African American. After the death of your grandmother and grandfather, Alba and Corey Alexander your mother, Sonya, ran here to the states and met your father, Nathaniel Coldwell. Your mother changed her name when she moved here; her birth name was Sima Alexander. Your parents were not married, as I am sure you are aware, but your mother took his last name after they split which was when you were barely 3 months old. Both of your grandparents were killed when their pack experienced a raid. Your great grandparents were Keita and Doughall Cochrane. They passed from old age. Your great great grandparents were Naal and Duncan Clouston. These two were also murdered. Your great great great grandparents were Sorcha and Duncan Murray. Your witch blood is passed down from female to female and is very strong." "So Sorcha was the old woman from my vision/dream. Crandle had locals murder her because she was protecting Naal from him. Keita must be the child that Crandle tried to kill when he killed her father." "I'm sorry Your Highness I am not following you." Just then Conall spoke up, "I am sorry Aalish, Natalie had a dream vision of the past and gleaned some information from it." "A dream witch?" "Yes it would appear so." "May I ask why you all would have information concerning my family in your archives?" "Of course. We keep records of notable events that involve wiccans, werewolves, and vampires. It is the job of the local pack's Alpha, in our case, or leaders to keep records and report to the historians. The historians from each group compile all the information and make it available to each other." "I guess that makes sense. Wait you said vampires." "Yes, vampires do exist as do fae or fairies." "Well I guess I shouldn't be surprised. In all your research could you find any information on how I can tap into my powers?" "We actually found a witch from your homeland that is a descendant of one of the members of your mother's coven. Her name is Tavie Meldrum. If you wish we could make contact with her to see if she is aware of how to make that happen." "Would you please?" "It is my pleasure to serve you." "Is there anything else we need to know," Conall asked? "As of right now that is it. We are awaiting a few phone calls for more information." "Very good then. If there is anything of importance please don't hesitate to seek us out." "Of course your majesty," Aalish said as the entire council stood and bowed. Without another word they left the room followed by Caiden. "Alainn, I have cleared the rest of my day so that we can work on a few things." "Like.........?" "Well your magic is one." "Oh, I thought, well never mind what I thought. Shouldn't we wait for, what was her name, Tavie, before we do that?" "I think we could go out into the clearing and work some. From your visions, I know that being angry is a catalyst so we will try different emotions to see if they spark something." "Are you sure that's safe? I don't want to hurt anybody, especially you." "I have already told Caiden to make certain that pack members stay away. We can also work on you learning to block what you send me and you listening to the pack as well." "If you say so, but I hate this helpless feeling." "I know Natalie. I understand your need for control, but sometimes you must learn to release your grip a little." "Oh, like you do......" "I am Alpha. I must be in charge." "Oh according to you I am Alpha too." "Yes you are, but I know how to be Alpha and all the protocols you do not. Not to worry though you will in no time. Shall we go to the clearing now." I wasn't particularly fond of letting somebody else have control and wanted to argue my point, but he was right. I had no idea what it took to run a pack, hell a short while ago I didn't know werewolves, witches, vampires and fairies even existed. Now here I am, Natalie Renae Coldwell MBA, mated to a damned wolf, Alpha female to a pack, and a witch. What the hell had happened to my life? I was so far out of my element and absolutely scared shitless. "I caught all that." "Huh, oh shit. Yeah let's go I really need to learn that blocking stuff." "Hold on. I want you to know I understand. I couldn't imagine my life being turned upside down and inside out the way yours has been. It is a testament to your strength that you haven't lost it. Please don't ever feel like you need to hide your feelings and thoughts from me. I want to know even if you believe it would upset me. Okay?" "Okay. Thank you." "For what Alainn?" "Being so wonderful and understanding." "I love you. I will always be on your side." "Yeah right we'll see. Come on let's get this started." The walk to the clearing took about 15 minutes. We walked out past the lake and there was a circular arena type thing surrounded by pillars and really big torches. Conall explained that that it was where they sparred with one another and fight when there was a challenge issued. Walking farther along we came to a path that cut through the trees. Following the path we stepped out into the clearing. It was beautiful. There were wild flowers growing everywhere. The scent was amazing. "Conall this is so beautiful." "Yes, I rarely get an opportunity to come this far from the compound. It is a nice place to come and think or just relax." "It makes me feel like a kid. I just want to run." Which is what I did. Suddenly I find myself on my back looking up at the sky. "What the hell Conall?" "I told you never run from a wolf. I cannot resist the urge to chase you and I adore catching you." With that he leaned in and started kissing me. I wanted to just go with it, but pulled away. "Don't we have work to do?" If we start we won't get to it." I felt a rumble in his chest and felt his frustration through our bond, but he got up nonetheless. "You are right. As much as I would love to have you screaming my name right now we have work to do." "What should I do first?" "Well when you used your powers before it was when you were angry so let us start there. Think about something that makes you angry and let's see what happens." "Ok, I guess." I thought about the possibility that Crandle had actually murdered my mother. I saw the way he ripped Naal apart. I felt myself getting hot starting at my feet and moving up my body until it reached my hands. I raised my hands and a bush about 50 feet away came flying out of the ground and landed a few more feet away. I was astonished. "Good A Chumann. Can you do that again?" "I think so." Each time I focused on anger I was able to blow something over. I was actually able to shoot fire from my hands while remembering the time I started the fire in the trashcan. I was amazed. After about 3 hours of doing this we changed to me learning to block Conall from hearing my thoughts. It took me sometime to actually get it. I finally just decided to build a wall in my mind with Conall on the otherside of it and that seemed to work. As I was sat there visualizing the wall I suddenly had the feeling of danger the wall fell instantly as my concentration was broken. "What is it Natalie?" "I don't know. Danger." "I don't sense anything out of place." "Not here, Oh shit Ronnie. It's Ronnie." "Can you tell what is wrong?' "There's a man, no two men sitting in a car outside of her house. I can't see there faces, but they are there to take her." "Where is your cell phone Alainn?" "In my pocket?" "Call her Alainn." I am terrified dialing her number. "Ronnie listen to me carefully I don't have time to explain just listen to me. Do not under,any circumstances, leave your house. Stay inside I'm sending Bryant to pick you up." "What the hell are you talking about?" "Ronnie please honey you need to listen. Look out your window there is a black SUV parked across the street two houses down. Do you see it?" "Yes, but I don't understand. How do you know that? It's too damn early to play pranks Nat." "Do I sound like I'm playing a damn joke? I will tell you all about it as soon as I get you to safety. Conall has sent Bryant and a few others to get you and bring you here. I promise I will tell you everything as soon as you're safe here with me. Please trust me Ronnie." "Conall she is going to freak when Bryant shows up to her house stark naked. Can't you knock her out or something?" Conall was shaking his head yes as he reached for the phone. "Veronica Bryant will be there in 3 minutes. He will becoming in the back. Do you have a speaker phone? Ok good please put me on speaker and then go and sit on the sofa. Can you hear me? Good are you sitting down? Ok then I need you to sleep for me and you won't wake up until Natalie wakes you." "It is done Alainn, she is sleeping. Bryant is at the door now. " I was able to keep tabs on the men sent to grab her and it seemed they were waiting for her to leave so they could ambush her and take her to Crandle. She was going to be bait, his way of getting me to come to him willingly. They talked candidly about Crandle, even calling his crazy a few times. The more I listened the more afraid I became. How the hell was I going to deal with this. He was clearly insane and capable of great violence. What was I going to do? "You are not alone mo ghra. I will protect you with my life as would anyof our warriors." "NO, I can't ask you or your people to die for me." "You are their Queen. You are my mate. It is not something you need to ask it simply is. You are no longer alone." He grabbed me and hugged me and I felt all his loveand reassurance flow into me. Slowly we made our way back to the house. It seemed like forever before Bryant came rushing through the door with the still sleeping form of my best friend. They had captured the two men and drove back using their car. With Ronnie in hand l had him put her in the room she had used during the cookout. After she was laid down I sat down beside the bed dreading this conversation. I looked to Conall and saw concern on his face. "How am I going to explain this to her?" "She loves you Alainn. She will accept it all. It may take some time, but she will. I am here with you." "How do I wake her?" "Just speak to her. Once she hears your voice she will wake up. She may be a little confused at first so just be patient." "okay." I braced myself for what I was sure was going to be the most difficult conversation of my life. "Ronnie, Ronnie honey wake up." As she started to wake up she started talking, "girl I had the weirdest damn dream........" It must have begun to click then. You couuld see the confusion on her face. "How the fuck did I get here?" "Bryant brought you remember?" "No. All I remember is you calling me and saying I was in danger then putting Conall on speakerphone. After that nothing until just now. What's happening?" "Ron what I'm about to tell you will seem, well actually, is strange, but hear everything I have to say and then I, we, will answer all of your questions. Deal?" Relunctantly she shook her head yes, so I started from the beginning. How Conall and I meet, the men at my house to kidnap me for Crandle and how he may have killed my mother, Conall being a werewolf and me being a witch, the dream visions, and finally ending with today's events. "Those men worked for him and he was going to use you as bait to get to me. I had to get you somewhere safe.That safest place being here." She turned to Conall and said, "What did you do to my friend?" "Ronnie, believe me. I didn't belive it at first either then he showed me his wolf and well you can't argue with your own eyes." "His wolf, really Nat. He's obviously drugged you. werewolves and witches don't exist." I turned to Conall and said, "show her". He turned his back to us and began his shift. At first Ronnie just sat there then came the scream. Conall quickly shifted back while I tried to calm her. Finally, Conall had make her sleep again. This was totally fucked. How was I suppose to explain things when she was hysterical. My only option was to try to explain things again when I woke her again. Conall was going to "speak" with the two men and I decided to sit with Ronnie and try to figure a way of getting her to understand. "Ronnie wakeup." As her eyes focused she began to look around with fear plainly seen on her face. "He's not here," I said. "Natalie, what the hell is going on? He turned into a dog." "A wolf." "Oh my mistake. What damn difference does that make?" "I know you're scared. Hell I was too,a little, but if you'll let me explain." "How can you explain?" "Just listen then if you still want to go I will let you, but somewhere safe, ok?" She shook her head yes and I proceeded to tell her everything. I started with the men breaking into my house and how Conall saved me from being kidnapped, the fact that he was a werewolf as were all the people here and how I was the new Queen Alpha, and finally finished with the fact that I am a witch and how I knew she was in danger. To her credit she sat and listened without interrupting once, but as soon as I was finished........ "Seriously, how can you trust someone you don't know? How do you know he didn't set the whole kidnapping up so he could rush in as the "hero" and save you?" "Why. why would anybody do something like that?" "Ahh to get you here so he could brainwash you into believing this load of crap." "You saw him change for yourself." "He could have drugged me." "Ronnie you know me better than that. You know I don't trust people easily, but I trust him. I love him. You know I would never do anything to hurt you and that I'm to suspicious of everything to get conned, trust me it's all real and it's all true." "You love him? Ha. If I can get you away from here you'll be able to think clearly and then you'll see that he is not what he claims." "What if......what if there's away to show you what I've seen and experienced, would you believe meand trust me then?" "How would you do that? Would he have to be here?" "No. I'm gonna try something. I don't know if it will work, but I have to try. I love you and don't want to loose your friendship if I can help it. Come and sit with me on the floor." After we were seated I took her hands in mine, told her to clear her mind, and prayed thiswould work. I started thinking about the night Conall saved me, at least what Icould remember of it. The conversations the next day, when we made love (albeit editted some), how I could feel his love for me, the dreams about Naal and the councils information. My witchcraft practice, how I felt then saw what was happening at her house. I showed her everything and then I opened my eyes. She sat with hereyes closed for a minute or so and then when she finally opened them Icould see she understood. "Wow that was amazing. It was like I was living every moment with you. I'm still not 100% about this whole werewolf business, I mean it's still a little freaky and all, but I do see that you two love each other. Here's what I'm willing to do, I'll stay if only to watch out for you, but I'm not sold on everything. I'm not sure how I feel about the possibility that I'm living with werewolves, but I'm know you and I know that it must be something to this if you trust it." All I could do was cry and hug her. Conall I walked into the holding area with murderous intent. My eyes were glowing yellow and there was a low steady rumble low in my throat. I was going to get answers to my questions one way or another. If they chose another than so be it. The men were held separately in rooms separated by two way glass,but notable to hear. These rooms were designed to make certain that multiple captives are able to see what takes place with hearing what is said. I walked into the first cell and moved purposefully towards the glass making certain the other man saw my eyesand growling so the man with me would certainly hear it. "What is your name?" No Answer "Very well. You may choose to ignore me, but I assure you that won't last long. I know that you are not Were so you stand a chance in this small enclosed space with me. I will ask you again and then I will start making you talk, or should I say scream. What is your name?" "Steve. Were, what the hell are you talking about Were? I don't know anything, I swear. This guy I know he asked me to help him grab this girl. Said he would pay me $2000.00. That's all I know." "This friend didn't say what he wanted the girl for?" "No, just that we had to get her. That's all I promise." "Is the man in the other room this friend of yours?" "Yes, his name is Dexter. Man please let me go." "I'm afraid I cannot do that. At least not yet." "But I don't know anything." "I am going to speak with this Dexter. I will return when I'm done." I waited before entering the next room. Giving this Dexter time to draw his own conclusions. "Dexter, is it? Why were you after the woman?" "I will not be answering any questions." I grabbed him by the throat and hoisted him out of the chair and snarled, "that would be fine with me I would prefer to kill you. You are connected with the attempted kidnapping of my mate are you not? It would give me great pleasure and satisfaction to break your neck right now. I would, of course like some answers to some questions, but if not at least I will know you will not be alive any longer." For emphasis I added pressure to his neck and shifted my hand so that my claws could dig in. His eyes bulged, but he managed to squeek out a no. "As you wish." Then I hada thought. I decided to transform to hybrid and torture my answers from him. "You know there are worse things then death?" I released his neck and used my razor sharp claws to shred his shirt making sure to slice into the skin beneath. He let out a scream, but nothing more so I went further. "I. Think. I. Will. Take. My. Time. With. Your. Torture," I said, punctuating each word with another swipe of my claw. "I promise to make it quick if you answer my questions truthfully." Panting heavily he said, "turn me and I will tell you everything." This took me by surprise and I had to ask, "why?" "He will surely kill me if he finds out I told you anything. At least as a wolf I may stand a chance." "What if I promise to keep you safe until he is dead, and he will surely die, would that be sufficient?" "What if you fail?" "Dexter, do you know anything about male werewolves?" He shook his head yes. "Well then you know we will die to protect our pack, but especially our mate and pups. The first woman you attempted to kidnap is my mate and the second is her best friend, who is under the protection of this pack. So you see I will not fail, it is not in me to fail. I will kill Vincent Crandle if it is the last thing I do in this life." Natalie Ch. 06 At hearing me mention that Natalie was my mate he seemed to come to terms with what he had to do. "Sir, if you can assure my safety and that of the gentleman next door I will tell you all I know." "Done. If I find that you are lying or misleading me in any way I will kill you instantly, are we clear?" "Yes." Before we continued I called the pack doctor to come and stitch him up. He was in considerable pain and for that I was sorry, but I wouldn't allow the doctor to administer pain medicine. "I know you are I pain, but I need you to talk now." I listened intently to what he said. Taking special note of what we already knew, what we suspected and what we didn't know. After he was done the doctor gave him something and out he went. "Donovan I will send someone down to move him into a more private cell. Please do what you can to make him comfortable." "Yes my Alpha, it is my pleasure to serve you." "Alainn, are you done with Ronnie. I have some information." "Yes. We're done for now. I will meet you in your study." "No, in our suite." I started sending her the most erotic images. The violence made me excited and I needed to be with my mate. I stopped off in the security room and told them to move Dexter and to help make the room as comfortable as possible. Then I sent a message to the cook to bring supper to both rooms once they were moved. Then I called to Natalie. "Natalie, I'm on my way." Her response was to send me the image of her on her knees with her mouth wrapped pleasingly around my hard dick. Then she switched to her on all fours and me pounding away at her. "Oh mate," I growled into her mind as I kicked the door open. "Assume the position."
