Crossing Paths With The White Wolf

Chapter 24



Natalia

POV

I was sitting in the back of the moving truck with Eun-Kyung. She was still sobbing, hanging on to me for dear life. Luna Celeste walked outside towards us. She was bleeding from two different places.

"Is she OK?" she asked.

"She is. Thanks to you guys. Can I help?" I motioned towards her wounds.

She sighed, "It would help Markus' stress levels immensely, though I'm sure I'd survive."

I put my hand on her shoulder and took a deep breath as I felt the pull of my energy flowing into her wound, closing it. Once I was satisfied that it was closed, I moved my hand to her abdomen. This bullet had caused a bit more damage and as I saw her wound closing in my eye, I felt the pull of my energy a little stronger and I placed my other hand on her stomach to steady myself. I smiled and looked up at her once I was done.

"Don't worry Luna, you can tell Alpha Markus that his pup is fine. The bullet didn't go hit your uterus." saw her eyes go wide at my words. "s**t, did you not know yet?"

She opened her mouth to say something when we heard a gun c****d and someone yelling. Alpha Markus jumped in front of Luna Celeste as I heard the sound of an automatic weapon go off. I shielded Eun-Kyung with my body and I felt two bullets hit my back before I felt a body behind me and the bullets stopped hitting me. I felt the hairs on my arms stand on end before there was a pop, a horrifying scream and shortly after. I felt a body fall behind me. I turned around and I felt my heart stop when I saw Helios lying on the floor. He was unconscious, his body was bleeding from at least a dozen bullet holes. I could hear his heart beating sluggishly.

Panic filled my brain and I stood frozen while Hestia howled in my head.

HEAL HIM. HEAL MATE. - she demanded.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

I crawled over to him, my own wounds were slowly closing because I was already tired and drained from healing Luna Celeste and Eun-Kyung's exhaustion earlier. I put my hands on one of the bullet holes nearest to his heart. It had splintered into several fragments. One of those fragments had nicked his heart. I poured all of my energy into expelling the fragments from his body and healing the damage. When he still didn't wake, I moved to the next one. My body was exhausted but I couldn't lose him. I dimly realized while I tried to stop him from dying that rejecting him wasn't something I could do anymore. I was already in love with him. I couldn't let him die.

"Come on," I whispered desperately, as I felt the first tears fall from my eyes. I put my hand over his heart after the second bullet fell out and the wound healed. It was still beating slowly.

"Natalia, stop," Gonzalo said.

"No, he's still not stable," I said, as I put my hand over another bullet hole. This one had destroyed his liver.

"Nat, please. You look like you're about to faint," Celeste said. I felt a hand try to pull me back but I snarled at them. "MINE" I growled without looking at them. I heard the owner of the hand take a step back.

I healed that wound and went to the next one, but as I tried to shift, my hand slipped in the pool of blood and my head hit the floor. Darkness took me. My last thought as I passed out was that I had failed him. I hadn't been able to save my mate.

-

I was on a platform. s**t. I looked up to see her looking down on me, but before I could say anything, the platform disappeared and I fell into the void.

-

I groan as I wake. I hate it when that happens. I open my eyes and I'm in a bedroom. The fight must be over. I tried to pull upwards and I felt sparks explode on my left arm. I look over to my left and my stomach drops. Helios is unconscious next to me. His chest is covered in bandages, blood soaked through the wraps on some parts. Hestia howled in my head and my heart clenched. I looked up at his face. He really was handsome. He looked like he had come out of a 1970s novela or black and white film. I couldn't help myself. I let my hand lightly trace down the side of his face. I placed my hand on his cheek and my stomach fluttered as he leaned into my hand. I looked at his eyes and confirmed he was still asleep. I could hear his heart beating slow and steady. Heal him. Heal our mate. - Hestia begged me.

You don't have to beg me, Hestia. I don't think I can stay away from him anymore. I told her.

We deserve to be happy, Nat.

It is just temporary. You know that. The inevitable will come and we will have to learn to live without him. I - I think this one will break us. I felt my breath hitch at my own words, my eyes were stinging with tears I refused to shed. We can't think that far ahead. We can cherish the time we have. For now, let's heal our mate. The rest we will figure out.

I got up on my knees. I bent down and gave his lips a light kiss before I let one claw extend and I cut off the bandages.

The wounds on the left side of his body looked like they were healing faster than the right. The mate bond - Hestia said as I put my hand on the first bullet wound on the right side of his abdomen. We let our energy flow into his wound. The bullets had been pulled out so the pull was less. I finished his entire abdomen and had started sweating. There were only four more bullet wounds on the top of his torso. I went to put my hands on his top right shoulder when his hand caught my wrist. I looked at his face, startled out of my thoughts. His eyes locked on mine and I got lost in their chocolatey depths. He started breathing heavily and I felt my body respond as his chest grazed mine as he heaved. I felt my n*****s harden and my core started pulsing with anticipation. Faster than I thought he should be able to move, Helios flipped us over onto my back.

His hand was still on my wrist and he grabbed my other hand as I tried to touch his chest. I wanted to touch him. I wanted to tell him he was my mate. I wanted to tell him that I didn't think he was a monster. I was the monster, for thinking I could fight falling in love with a man like him. For hurting him, trying to protect myself from loving him. I just looked at him though, my mind was going a mile a minute and nowhere at the same time.

My eyes flickered to his lips for a moment. I saw his eyes darken with lust when I looked back up to him, but still he didn't move. I thought back to what Luna Celeste said and understood why he didn't make a move. So I did. I lifted my head and touched my lips to his. I felt his whole body begin to shake. I fell back onto the bed and licked my lips. His eyes zoned in on the action and I felt the sparks explode down my body, creating an inferno in my core as he lowered his body down to mine as he crushed his lips to mine. I couldn't stop the moan that bubbled up from my throat when his tongue pushed past his insanely soft lips and into my mouth. It was hot and hungry. It was dominating yet gentle. It was like he was starving but wanted to savor it at the same time. I tried to move my arms, but his grip was strong. So instead, I arced upward, relishing the electricity going from my hardened n*****s to my pulsing p***y as it dragged across his exposed skin. He groaned and pushed my hands over my head as his lips started kissing down my neck. I could feel his member growing hard against my lower abdomen and all I wanted was to feel him inside me.

"Helios," I begged him. He moaned and I felt his hips grind on mine. His teeth grazed against my neck before he lifted his face. He kissed my lips again before he looked into my eyes.

"You can say no. Tell me to walk away now. If-if you don't want this. Natalia..." It was sweet of him to give me an out. The vulnerable look in his eyes did something to my heart and I believed he would stop if I asked him. But I was tired of fighting myself, my wolf and the bond. I didn't want to fight my attraction to him anymore. I wanted this.

"I want this," I said as I lifted my head again. I kissed him, and took his bottom lip between my teeth and pulled us both down to the bed. I felt the appreciative rumble rise from his chest. He went back down to his elbows, plunging his tongue into my mouth again. His hands moved down to the hem of my shirt and he lifted himself from me to push the shirt up and over my head, trapping my arms above my head. He looked at my chest hungrily and I felt myself getting wet. His hands slid from my hips over my stomach and up to my breasts and I moaned at the trail of sparks. He palmed both hands over my breasts, gently kneading them while looking into my eyes. When his thumbs caressed the n*****s, I saw his eyes darken as I moaned, pushing my breasts further into his hands. I tried to move my arms, but my shirt was caught on my back, the hem of the shirt over my head and the sleeves hooked on my elbows.

"Let me touch you," I begged him as he lowered his head to take one of my breasts in his mouth.

"No," he groaned as he pulled on my n****e. I hissed, loving the jolt of sweet pain and the sparks it sent to my core. After paying a lot of attention to the first mound, he witched and flicked his tongue on the other one before, making me moan at the sensation. I felt his hand pushing my leggings down. I pushed up slightly off the bed so that he could push it down my a*s and I felt a delicious squeeze to a cheek as he bit lightly on my n****e. I felt the wetness between my legs increase and I struggled to get the rest of my leggings off and wrapped my legs around him. I rubbed my wet core over his pants on his hardened shaft. I wanted him inside me. I needed to feel his c**k stretch me to my limit.

"f**k Nat," he moaned. He grabbed my legs from his waist and removed them, holding my legs open, exposing my p***y to his hungry eyes. "You're so beautiful," he whispered before he kissed my swollen nub. I arched my back in pleasure, pulling the shirt the rest of the way off. I grabbed his hair as he continued his attack on my core. I pulled when he hit a sensitive spot just right and he grumbled in approval, focusing his efforts on those parts. Every time he bit my c**t, I pulled on his hair. When his tongue dipped into my entrance, my hips rose, wanting to feel more of him inside me. I felt the intensity build and when he inserted two fingers into my p***y, I thrust my hips to meet his pace. He pushed a third finger in and I felt his teeth close over my c**t. I fell apart. My hips rose and I locked his head in place with my thighs as I rode my o****m. I was panting and sweating when I finally let his head go. Helios pulled up and looked down at me. Remnants of my o****m shined on his lips and I let my l**t take control.

I wrapped my legs around his waist and flipped us over. His eyes widened in surprise. He tried to get up but I pushed him back down with one hand. "You had your fun, now I get to have mine," I purred as I undid his belt buckle and slid his jeans down. Helios shifted so I could get rid of his pants and boxer briefs. I let my eyes devour his rigid shaft as I pulled the offensive garments off his feet. I let my hands roam his body. From the tip of his feet up to his hips. I cupped his balls in my hand and pulled gently. His d**k twitched and he dropped his head back and groaned. I lowered myself to his p***s, tasting, licking, and sucking the bead of precum from the head of his d**k. I heard him swear in Spanish before he sat up, grabbed me by the arms and pulled me up, crushing me to his chest, kissing me senseless. I could still taste the remnants of my juices on his lips.

"If you keep doing what you're doing, we won't have fun for very long mi amor (my love)," he said huskily. His words made my heart flutter and I grabbed his face and kissed those soft lips now swollen from our kisses. He flipped us over again, settling between my legs. I felt the tip of his head at my entrance and I whimpered with need, pushing against it, desperate to feel him inside me. "f**k. You're going to be the death of me," he groaned as he pushed inside in one thrust.

I felt my walls stretch and spasm as they adjusted to his girth. "Oh goddess, you feel so good" I moaned, pushing my hips to take more of him. He grunts as he pulls out slowly, then pushes back in. Deliciously but frustratingly slow. "Helios," I whimpered, "faster!" He dropped a deep kiss on my lips. "Pushy wolf," he grunts before he pushes my legs further apart as he started driving into me at a more pleasurable pace. I began moaning as his thrusts picked up speed. I arched my back in pleasure and let my nails scratch down his sweaty back. Helios was looking into my eyes, taking note of every moan and scream, adjusting the angle so he could go further, deeper. It was turning me on so much, having his undivided attention. He was building the pressure. He shifted slightly and pulled my hips higher. His thrusts were deeper at this angle and I felt his c**k rub my g spot as it thrust in and out. I was getting close. I pushed my hips up, meeting every thrust and feeling his balls hit my a*s every time he pushed in. I looked him in the eye as I let my hands roam up to my breasts. His eyes snapped down to them and I reveled in the look of l**t on his face as I pinched my n*****s for him. His rhythm faltered and his thrusts began to get erratic. I put my hands around his neck and guided him to my n****e. He pulled on it with his teeth and I felt the o****m crash over me. Through the haze of my pleasure, I heard him moan as he buried his face in my neck and I felt him release into me. He lays on top of me as we tried to calm our breathing. I could feel Hestia purring in the back of my mind.

"Sorry, I'm probably heavy for you," he said as he gently pulled out of me and rolled off to my side.

I frowned, mostly because I already missed feeling his weight on me. "I'm not one of those dainty women you may be used to. My body can take a little weight." I said, pulling one of his arms to pull him back onto me. Helios laughed and rolled his torso back onto mine. "Used to? I'm not used to anything. I just don't want you to be uncomfortable."

I sighed, "I'm doing it again, aren't I? I'm twisting your words."

"That seems to be your default mode." He kissed my lips softly.

"I've been alone for a long time, Helios. I don't know how to do relationships. There's a reason I live in the middle of nowhere. Relationships don't work for me." I regretted the words the moment they came out of my mouth.

His smile dropped for a moment, before he schooled his face back into a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes anymore. "It's OK. It's just s*x. It doesn't have to mean anything. I should go shower. The others will be coming to check on us soon." His voice was soft, but devoid of any emotion as he stood up and walked towards his shower. I stayed in bed for a minute, watching his magnificent a*s walking away.

Hestia growled in my head as I sat up on the bed and put on my leggings and my shirt. Go to him. You hurt his feelings - She said.

I didn't mean to. I, it's been too long Hestia, I don't know what I'm doing anymore. - I confessed to her.

Start by telling him you didn't mean it the way it came out. It's time he knew who we are, what we are to him. - She told me.

I started making my way around the bed towards his bathroom when I heard the door open.

"Nat! You're awake!" I sighed. I turned and smiled at Eun-Kyung, who rushed towards me and hugged me. I guess the conversation would have to wait. Again.
