To The Council
“Who do you love?”
“You, Alpha Gorgio”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“And who can’t live without you?”
“It’s you, my love”
“And who do you belong to?”
“To you, my mate”
“And who do you drive crazy with your sweet body?”
“You, my Alpha mate. You and you alone.”
Obviously pleased with my words, he takes me in his arms again to press me against his naked body. I can tell by the beating of his heart that he intends to resume our nocturnal escapade. My mate, the strong Alpha Gorgio of the Eclipse Howl pack, the wolf who owns my heart. He is the most handsome male on the planet, muscular and tall, every healthy woman’s dream. But he is all mine, given to me by the Moon Goddess a year ago.
His arms grip me from behind like a vise as I turn my face to his.
“Yes, baby. You are the jewel the Moon Goddess bestowed upon me. I love you, Ariel. My life only got real meaning when I met you. That was the best day of my life”. He nipped at my earlobe, sending a shiver down my spine. I tried to say something, but the sparks coursing through my body left me breathless.
“And I’ll keep you for myself. To death, as I promised you at the Luna ceremony. I swear to you, my mate, that you are the only one for me.” His lips traversed my cheeks, coming closer to my mouth, and I couldn’t wait for them to take mine. But he gave me a few more seconds to respond. I swallowed the lump in my throat and looked at my mate through the slits of my eyes.
“And I’m crazy about you. There could never be anyone else for me but you. Until death,” I repeated my vows before desire took over my senses again. Gorgio’s hand now caressed my body, I never get tired of this. He is a real beast in bed, his body and passionate declarations drive me mad.
“Good girl. That’s what I like to hear. I will tear to pieces anyone who dares to take you from me,” he growled, before finally giving in to my craving and kissing me deeply. And then the game we just finished started again.
But I don’t mind, in a few hours, I’ll leave his side for pack business. Gorgio tries to fill the void he will surely feel when I’m gone, with fresh memories of us together.
This is the first time since we became mates that we will be apart.
I’m heading to Midnight Moon Pack for a week to attend the annual assembly of the Global Werewolf Community. It is organized by the Council of Werewolves and it is compulsory for all packs to attend. I am standing in for Gorgio, who is currently unable to leave due to the threats that humans are exerting on our territory. A lucrative seam of gold has been discovered running through our land, and they are trying to exploit it by destroying our forests.
Two hours later, we fall into each other’s arms, satiated and dead tired.
“Come back as soon as the meeting is over. Ariel, do not stay for another day. If I have to, I’ll pick you up myself,” he reminded me for the umpteenth time. “Damn! Those greedy humans! Otherwise, we would have traveled together, you wouldn’t have had to go to such a grand meeting all by yourself”.
“Hey, babe. Eclipse Howl is my home now. And I’m happy to do this, we can’t be absent. The King and Queen will be there as well, and if we can bring our business to the Kingdom, the pack will be greatly benefited.”
He knows I am right. After me, matters of the pack are a high priority to him.
“Yes, I’m aware of that. But I don’t feel comfortable about you leaving. I would have preferred you here with me or I would have gone with you”, he pouted stubbornly.
“Don’t worry. I’ll be back before you know it. I’ll miss you so much that I can’t stay there any longer than necessary,” I promised. We decided to go back to sleep for another hour before I get ready to leave.
As I stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, I noticed that my body was once again covered in love bites. I caress the ones on my neck; I am sure Gorgio must have a lot of them too. But that means I have to bring suitable clothes to cover them up. Not that I am ashamed of this show of love from my mate, but the attention of the attendees would rather be on them than on our conversation.
And I definitely need concentrated high rankings to sell them on our plans.
I take a hot bath and when I return to the bedroom, I find my mate has already laid out my clothes on the bed. He helps me rub and massage my body, dry my hair, and then push me onto the bed to help me dress. Within half an hour I am ready and my make-up is in order. My hair is pulled back tightly in a businesslike style, leaving the mate mark on my neck open for everyone to see.
The plan is to emphasize my seriousness and leave a lasting impression. Of course, men will dominate the conference, but I don’t want to focus on that. I am all business. As I enter the packhouse dining room, Gorgio invites me to the head of the table next to him.
“Bacon and scrambled eggs, three burgers for you. I have it all here”. Gratefully, I threw myself into the Luna chair. “Thank you, my love”.
“The Bugatti is ready. Are you sure you want to drive yourself? I can ask one of the warriors to ride you”. I smiled, Gorgio was always nervous when I’m using one of the fast cars. But he really must get over it.
“There are already three following vehicles. Let me enjoy the ride on my own, Gorgio. Please, let me have some fun.” He sighed deeply, leans back and gives in.
An hour later, I hugged and kissed my mate goodbye and got into the vehicle.
On my way to Midnight Moon….
