Chapter 14 — Heat Is On

I wake up suddenly to the sound of snarling and howling. I quickly jump out of bed and notice that Dom is no longer in the bed either. I grab some clothes and put them on. Looking out the window to see if I can see anything but I was not able to see anything from this side of the window. I walk over to the door and gently pull it open to assess the situation. Still nothing.

Sasha: Go, I can hear them just a little farther out.

Me: What do you hear?

Sasha: No time, just run. He needs us.

Without a second guess I take off running following my instincts. There are three grey wolves that are circling a large white and silver wolf that is fighting one of their buddies.

Wait is that?

Sasha: No time to question just go.

Picking up a stick that was about the size of a staff I charge in swinging at one of them pushing them to let me into the circle. The wolf whines when he sees me.

“No, I am not leaving you to fight them alone,” I say to the wolf.

The other wolves start to growl as they continue to circle.

Sasha: Shift! I can help him.

Me: No! You haven’t fought in a while. I have at least been doing hand to hand combat. I can do this.

Sasha: Not when they are in wolf form.

Me: Just trust me.

Sasha: I do. I just don’t want you to get hurt.

I nod my head.

Me: Guide me through.

Sasha starts to access the situation. My eyes are golden, but I still have control.

Sasha: Alright, start with the little one, he seems anxious and not confident about the situation.

I go after the smallest one. Pushing him from the others and fighting him without the others interfering. It’s not long before he is taking off in the other direction with his tail between his legs. I don’t have long before one tries to jump me and pull me down to the ground. I twist and punch him in the side causing him to bounce back a little, but he was still coming at me. Swirling the stick in my hands I am able to keep him at a fair distance. We both stop when we hear a howl and then a crack and I can smell the fear radiating off him as he turns and dashes off.

I drop the stick and place my hands on my knees taking deep breaths to calm my heart rate and my anxiety. Wow! It’s been a long time since I have had to fight. I am seriously out of shape.

Sasha: We are in serious need of some kick ass training, both of us. Especially if we are going to be Luna of a pack. I refuse for us to be weak.

I nod in agreement.

The wolf makes his way to me and whines a little.

“No, don’t give me that. Shift!”

He shakes his head while trying to rub himself against me, and when that doesn’t work, he gives me his puppy dog eyes.

“No, puppy eyes are not going to work right now. You better walk your butt over to the cabin and shift. You have a lot of explaining to do.”

I take a step back after that rant. Wow, it’s hot. I can’t seem to cool down and it’s not hot out here.

Sasha: Ha-ha! If it’s not one thing it’s another. Good luck staying mad at him now!

I continue to make my way back to the cabin. I can smell Dom more now; damn he smells good. Wow he is laying his scent on thick.

I open the door and see a sad pup looking at me. I pull my shirt off and am really wishing my temperature would drop. Damn even as a pup he is hot. What the hell is going on with me?

Sasha: What happens twice a year for us?

My eyes widen and I make my way to the bathroom and locking the door behind me. No, no, no. Please Goddess don’t let me have my heat on top of just finding my mate and being in the middle of establishing the mate bond. This is so not good.

“Charity? I’m sorry.” Dom is talking through the door.

“Why are you yelling? I can hear you just fine.”

“Charity, what’s going on?”

“Nothing, I need you to leave me alone. Please!” I beg him through the door.

“This smell? Your scent it smells so amazing. I don’t want to walk away from it.”

“Dom, make sure all the windows and the door is closed. If you are enjoying that smell, imagine how many unmated males are going to love that smell.”

“Charity, please tell me you are not going into heat right now?” He says with a bit of concern in his tone.

“Do you have any ice?” I ask as I start to draw me a really cold bath. Damn this is going to suck.

“Charity, let me in. You can’t do this by yourself.”

“I sure can, and I have in the past.”

Sasha: But he can make this heat so much better than it was with Sam.

She purrs.

I shivered when she brought up our first heat. I was not able to keep her under control and she and Sam’s wolf went crazy, thankfully they at least wore protection and yes, it’s true that some wolves have hard time getting pregnant. I just didn’t want to take the chance. The what ifs were stacking up quick.

Dom breaks the door off the hinges and comes barreling in.

My eyes roll into the back of my head. Oh, my goddess he smells divine. I lick my lips feeling myself wanting just a taste of him, just a sample. He scoops me out of the ice bath and my body starts to burn where he is touching me.

“Ow Dom it hurts, make it stop. Please.” I beg him.

He lays me on the bed and immediately slides himself inside me. I let out a loud moan almost scream by how delicious his member feels inside of me.

“How do you want it, Charity? You have to tell me,” he says as he starts to move slow.

“Harder, deeper. I need you very deep inside me.” I beg him as I push myself against him.

He lets out a growl as he continues to thrust into me. I could feel his member swelling inside me.

“Yes, yes Dom just like that. Yes more, more.” I squeal.

Dom finds the spot and feels his knot start to swell. “Yes, Charity. You are almost there. Milk me, baby,” he says as he rubs my clit and I feel my release about to take over. I claw at him with my nails as I feel myself releasing and milking his thick member.

“Yes, here it is baby,” he breathes out as he starts to spill his thick, hot seed inside me.

My breathing starts to calm a bit. Well, there’s round one. I wonder how long we are going to be stuck here.

Dom pulls me into his chest as he tries to control his breathing and get his knot to relax so that he can pull out of me.

I look at him and say, “Thank you for helping me, but you are so not out of the doghouse yet.”

He chuckles at my remark and responds, “Yeah, I kind of figured that. But can you understand that it was the only way you would let me be near you back in High School.”

“Yeah, but I talked so much crap about you to you, and I had no idea,” I say I continue to pull myself away from him. His knot was still stuck in me and each time I tried to tug it would just send tingles throughout my body wanting another helping. Come on, body, can you cut me just a little slack?

Sasha: Doesn’t look like it.

Me: Don’t even get me started with you. You knew this whole time. You knew and said nothing.

Sasha: If I had you never would have let him find us.

Well, she does have a point. Back then if I had an inkling about any of this I may have flown to another country.

“Charity, please can you forgive? I would really like to not have you mad at me all throughout your heat.”

I shook my head, but I knew in my heart I had already forgiven him. He didn’t need to know it, yet.

“I’ll consider it,” I say with a coy smile on my face.

He wraps his arms around me and says, “Oh you are such a troublemaker.”

He kisses my forehead and I pull myself up to straddle him. I can feel another wave starting to calm or it may just be me wanting as much as I can get from this sexy man that is laying under me. I feel him start to swell again inside me as I rock my hips back and forth on him. His eyes close as a rumble comes from his chest. He places his hands on my hips and starts to push his hips against me, meeting me thrust for thrust. He opens his eyes, and they are raw, filled with so much love and passion for me. I just stare at him as I continue to ride him, enjoying all the tingles that are running throughout my entire body. I feel my toes start to curl as I feel myself getting closer to my release. I start to claw at Dom.

“Dom, it’s coming, I’m going to …”

“Don’t stop. Good girl. That’s right. Let it go.” He coaxes me as I find my release and start to milk his knot again. When my hot milk hits his knot, he starts to pump harder and letting out a loud growl as he pumps his hot liquid into me filling me up once again.

“Damn TM, that was amazing,” he says between breaths.

I scrunch my nose to the nickname and stick my tongue out at him.

“Come here. I want some of that.”

I lean forward and start to kiss him. He slides his tongue across my bottom lip, and I open my mouth to give him access. After a moment I pull away trying to regain my breathing.

“This time you are going to be the death of me,” I say in between breaths. “Can’t you give a girl a chance to come down from this heat.”

He gives me an evil grin as he tries to pull me back down on him and says, “Who says I want you to.”

Shaking my head, I slowly inch myself off of him, partially relieved that I am able to escape and head to the bathroom.

Sasha: He is insatiable.

She giggles.

Me: Yeah, I bet you are enjoying all this.

Sasha: Every single bit of it.

I grab my robe that I had in the bathroom and wrap it around me. I walk out of the bathroom and Dom is propped up on his elbow and resting his head on his hand with his upper body exposed and the bed sheets drawn open as an invitation to get into bed with him.

Shaking my finger at him, “Uh-uh not yet, I need to find my phone and send a message to my family to let them know that I will be unavailable for a few days, and also my work. Where is that phone?” I keep searching around the small cabin for it.

He whistles at me. I look up and see that he has my phone in his hand.

“Oh, you are tricky, and you call me the troublemaker,” I say as I walk over to him to try and grab my phone from him.

He pulls me onto the bed and flips us so that I am on the bottom and just stares into my eyes.

“I just want to enjoy these days while we have them. Being Alpha is not a walk in the park. At least this gives me an excuse to spend time with you without feeling guilty about not being available for the pack.”

I nod my head in understanding.

“Well, I hope you have a really good Beta, cause my last heat lasted about seven days.”

“Are we crazy for not being protected throughout all this?” He asks.

I shrug before answering, “It’s in the Goddesses hands. If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be. It’s hard enough for most wolves to conceive might as well take a shot.”

He leans down and gives me a soft kiss.

“I like the way you think.”

“You won’t always, but at least we can agree on that during this heat.”

I turn my phone on and notice that I already have a few messages from my family. And a few numbers that I was unfamiliar with but found out one was Hayley’s number and the other was Gwendolyn. They both were giving me thumbs up and wishing me good luck on my night last night as did Rosie as well.

I giggle.

“What?” Dom asks.

“Oh nothing, just the girls back at my pack. Wishing me good luck with our night last night.”

“That’s nice.”

I sigh before saying, “Yes, it’s real nice. I never really had girlfriends, I always hung with the guys.”

“Yep, always drove me crazy,” he says as he tries to tickle me.

“Whatever” I say as I try to get away from him.

I quickly open up a text group with the girls and let them know that I was going through my heat and would be back in about a week.

Then I called my mom to let her know the same thing. You could hear the excitement in her voice. I rolled my eyes and shook my head but smiled.

My head started to hurt, and my body started to sweat. I leaned over the couch to embrace me and not fall over when I called to Dom.

He was there in an instant wrapping himself around me. “I’ve got you.” He whispers in my ear.

Hearing those words absolutely warmed my heart and knew that these next few days were going to be unforgettable and wonderful.
