Chapter 68

Carolyn

I don't think I'd ever been so nervous, as we waited for the Council to make a decision. Cody said the Alpha hadn't told him much that he could share, except that they were going to make a decision after they went to the Godsend Pack tomorrow. He also said they planned to detain Wyatt, Jacob and Alpha Chris. In our dungeon. Knowing Wyatt was going to be so close to me, had my nerves on edge.

Cody and I walked back to our house after the Council had dismissed everyone. He had his arm wrapped tightly around me as we walked. I was sharing with him my concerns, and while he understood, he also said that I was safe and to know that no one could escape from our dungeon.

Making our way into the house, we locked the doors and Cody made a fire in our fireplace. I grabbed a few glasses and a bottle of wine, and we sat down to try and relax before bed. "How do you suppose this whole thing will turn out?," I asked Cody, while taking a sip from my wine glass.

Cody pulled my legs into his lap, gently rubbing my legs, the touch felt nice. He always knew how to make me feel good about things. Thinking about it, I wondered how I had ended up with that loser for a mate I had previously. He smiled at me, "I think it's going to turn out just fine. I have faith in the council to do the right thing. There are rules, and they have been broken to an extent that there is no forgiveness."

I nodded my head in understanding, watching as his hands ran up and down my legs. "Does it feel hot in here?," I suddenly asked. I felt my body getting flush, as if I had a fever. Werwolves don't usually get ill. We don't suffer from colds or any of those typical human viruses. There is very little that can make a werwolf sick.

Cody raised an eyebrow. "It's about seventy degrees in here. I can turn down the fireplace if you want." I nodded my head and he got up and turned down the gas on the fireplace.

I was feeling very uncomfortable all of a sudden, uneasy and strange. I was so hot, I felt a bead of sweat down the middle of my back as I fought this sensation of my skin being on fire. What the heck is wrong with me? I rose from the couch and without a word, walked up the stairs to the bathroom, ripping off my clothes and turning the shower on, only turning the cold water on. I could hear Cody, coming up the stairs. He stood in the bathroom door, watching me, with a curious expression on his face. Suddenly his nose twitched and a smile spread across his face. I wasn't sure why, but I didn't bother to ask, as my skin was so hot, I jumped into the shower, standing under the ice cold water. "Oh this feels so good," I said, my skin cooling slightly under the stream of cold water.

Cody was chuckling outside the door. "I won't be coming in that cold shower with you Carolyn, but as soon as you have had enough of the freezing water, I will be waiting to help you with your little problem."

I looked at him through the glass of the shower door, suddenly realization came to me. I was in heat. I hadn't had a heat cycle in years. The pack doctor had told me that it was likely due to stress, even though I had never told him of my horrors I had suffered at home. He had done blood work when I stopped having my heat, which was a few years after the beatings started. I had thought that the Moon Goddess thought me unworthy, since I had lost a child, due to the abuse from my mate. At that moment, I didn't know if I should be happy or terrified. I knew what this meant. I could get pregnant again. And with a man I loved dearly. The fear though, that I could lose a pup again, tugged at my heart. Not to mention, I was forty two years old. Although not uncommon to have a child at this age, in the werwolf community, it wasn't something we strived for. Usually by now, we had grandchildren. I was lost in my thoughts, when suddenly Cody ripped the door open and turned off the water.

"I don't know what you are doing woman, choosing to freeze in this shower, over taking me up on my offer! Your scent is killing me out here, even with the water running, I can smell it," He pulled me from the shower, wrapping me in a towel and picking me up into his arms. He carried me to the bedroom and lightly tossed me on our bed, a grin on his face as he quickly undressed.

I was definitely feeling the heat getting worse, my core craving release with each growing minute. As Cody crawled towards me on the bed, now void of all of his clothing, I held up a hand to stop him. His smile dropped. "Do you know what this means Cody? What could happen?", I asked.

"Of course I do. I'm thrilled about it, as you can clearly see," he said looking down at his now erect and hard member. I gulped, knowing that the heat would have us going at it all night long, maybe even into tomorrow. A typical heat lasted three days. Now was not that best time for this to happen, with the council being here.

"I just want to be sure, because you know I could get pregnant. Do you want pups?", I asked him. He had been a bachelor for so long, I wasn't sure he wanted to take on raising pups at this stage in our lives. Whatever his answer was going to be, I hoped he decided quickly, because I was getting to that point where I'd be losing my common sense and throwing myself on my mates cock at any moment.

"Carolyn," he said, his hand on my cheek. "I would want nothing more than to have a pup with the woman I love." With that, I threw myself into his arms, the heat consuming my body. I was usually much more reserved in our love making, but this time I would not be.

As my lips met his, he pulled me down on top of him, his hands caressing my body. With every touch, I heated up more. I reached down between us, grabbing the length of his cock, stroking it, as I rubbed my clit against the tip. "Easy there babe," he said, as he flipped me onto my back and dropped down between my legs. He pressed my thighs apart and dove his face into my wet pussy, his tongue attacking it with a vengeance. I heard a growl and realized it was me, my wolf enjoying every second of this. Cody licked me from top to bottom, before shoving a finger inside of me, curling it up to touch that bundle of nerves that made me go crazy. His thumb found my clit, rubbing it, as he licked and sucked. With all the stimulation, I climaxed in seconds. The heat subsided for a moment and I sighed in relief.

Cody slid up my body, taking a nipple into his mouth, lightly biting and licking it. His other hand reached back down to my core, rubbing my clit. With each circle of his thumb, my heat began to come back, intensifying with each minute that passed. Cody licked up to my collar, nipping at my mark. I arched my back, a moan leaving my mouth, my brain turning to mush. I wasn't sure I could have a coherent thought at this moment, as I felt every nerve in my body on fire. I felt the tip of his cock at my core, when suddenly he thrust into me. Once, twice, then I came again. "Oh my," I breathed out. Before my climax had even come to an end, he continued to move inside of me, whispering in my ear now, about how beautiful I was and how much he loved me. His breath on my skin made me shiver, the goosebumps running down my arms. I climaxed again. "Holy shit," I screamed. I had never climaxed so many times, not even when I was in the young stages of my relationship with my previous mate. Everything in my life paled in comparison to what this man could make me feel.

Cody continued to move inside me. I urged him to go harder. I wanted him to have his release too. At my request, he quickened his pace, plowing into me with such force that the bed slammed against the wall. He didn't seem to notice, or maybe he didn't care. I could feel another orgasm building inside me. I was starting to feel tired, my body finally satiated. He wasn't done though, and apparently I wasn't either. I suddenly felt myself tense up, and following that was the biggest orgasm I had ever felt, ripping through my core, the walls of my pussy squeezing and spasming around his cock. Cody released inside of me with a growl. My body shook in the aftermath of my climax.

Cody rolled to his side, keeping himself buried inside me, our bodies slick with sweat. He placed a kiss to my forehead, brushing my hair behind my ears. "I could not love anyone more than I love you Carolyn," he whispered as he pulled me tight against him. I hummed against his chest, kissing his pecs. My eyes grew heavy, as I drifted off to sleep, wrapped in the arms of the man I loved, a smile on my lips.
