I woke up to discomfort. I snuggled closer to Knox and then realized I didn't get the usual warmth and comfort. I snapped my eyes open to find myself cuddling with a pillow instead of Knox. Confusion consumed me. I let out a groan and whistled for Wiskey to come, but he didn't. I feel betrayed!!! 'Stop being overdramatic' Zene said. I rolled my eyes at her and tried going back to sleep.
But other than my eyes, brain, and my whole body I didn't feel sleepy. I tried rolling around but I couldn't find a comfortable position. I grunted and growled in frustration getting out of my bed. I took my blanket and put it over my head and clutched it near my neck. I walked downstairs like that and plopped on the couch.
I heard footsteps coming towards me making me glare at the air. I heard a squeak. A blind person would have assumed it would have been Char or Mae, but I am nowhere near-blind and I promise you it was Reece.
"Praise the moon goddess!" He sighed his hand reached his chest as if his heart was gonna run away any moment.
If I was a morning person I would have laughed so I just glared at him. He gulped and cautiously moved to the kitchen. I felt sweat trickle down my face which earned a frustrated growl from me. I ripped the blanket off me and decreased the temperature.
REECE P.O.V
Oh, my moon goddess. Zes is angry, Mae and Knox are not here. She is probably gonna murder someone now. She just decreased the temperature!!!!!!! I am feeling so cold!!!!!!!! 'Stop whining around' my wolf, Max snapped. I let out a huff that caught Zes's attention making her glared at me. I gave her nervous smile and mind linked Knox.
'Knox, Zes is angry! I am scared she is gonna murder me'
"Just give her black tea she will be ok in 10 seconds,"' He replied. I can imagine him rolling his eyes.
"Where is Knox" She snapped.
I swallowed suddenly feeling my throat heavy.
"He went to visit James," I said slowly.
She grunts and rolls into a ball on the couch. Meanwhile, I make black tea for her. I don't want to die today.
I cautiously walk over to her with her black tea in my hand. Sensing my presence she opens her eyes and glances at the mug in my hand. A small smile creeps its way on her lips before she takes the mug from my hand. She took one sip and closed her eyes smiling. She opens her eyes and smiles at me.
"Good morning!" She beamed.
I let out a sigh of relief and smiled at her. The front door opened making me and Zes snap our heads towards the door.
KNOX'S P.O.V
I smirked when I was greeted with a hug. I looked at Zes who was hugging me.
"Did someone miss me?" I teased.
"Who will miss you?" She rolls her eyes pulling away.
I laughed and pulled her back towards me and carried her to the couch. I placed her on my lap and place my head on the crook of her neck. She began drinking her black tea. I smile at her obsession with black tea. I have a feeling I forgot something.
"I feel loved," James muttered sarcastically catching our attention.
Ahh, this is the 'something' I forgot. Zes quickly jumped off my lap and ran to James pulling him into a hug. I frowned at the loss of contact and glared at James. Zes suddenly pulled away and grabbed the nearest wall for support.
"Why is it so hot?" She asked fanning her.
(smut begins)
It's summer but it's still cold. I go to her and checked her temperature she seemed fine. Ryder was restless he wants to take control. Zes jumped on me startling me. Her legs were wrapped around my torso and her hands around my neck. She starts kissing me. Even though I was surprised I kiss her back. I held her waist to support her while she ran her fingers through my hair making me groan. I pull away from the kiss making zes whine.
"She's in heat," James said.
My eyes widen in realization. I quickly took her to my room and locked the door. Her scent will drive the unmated wolves crazy, no wonder Ryder is restless.
"It's too hot!~" She cried.
I put her in my bed and went to fill the bathtub with ice-cold water.
ZES'S P.O.V
I am in heat. That explains why I feel like I am set on fire and horny. Female werewolf goes in heat when their body and wolf are ready to raise pups. This heat lasts for 5 to 10 days, 4 times a year. Wolves feel a strong desire to mate. Before I know it I am standing right behind Knox. I turn him around and start kissing his jawline and then slowly down his neck.
I made sure not to kiss his lips. I found his sweet spot, I made sure to give it special treatment. I sucked and bit the spot making him groan. After a few seconds, I pull away and admired my work. I slowly made it to his ear.
"Now everyone will know you are mine~" I whisper as I bit his earlobe.
Next thing I know I am slammed into the wall. I looked at his eye, his beautiful blue eyes were darkened with lust staring at me making me feel hot. I felt his hot breath making me bite my lips which caught his attention and let out a low growl. He slowly leaned forward but to my disappointment kissed my jaw. I let out a frustrated growl, which earned a slap on my butt making me gasp.
I could feel him smirk in my skin as I let out a low moan. I run my hand through his hair making him groan. I let out a loud moan when he sucked my sweet spot on my neck. He abruptly stopped making me whine.
"We should stop I won't be able to control myself if we continue," He said in a raspy voice making my legs go weak.
I hesitantly nodded. He picked me up. His scent driving me crazy. He placed me in the bathtub, the ice-cold water soothing the burning sensation but the heat is still there.
I know I shouldn't do this but his scent, his soft lips, his messy hair, his uneven breath as he tried to control himself. This was enough to murder my brain.
I felt adrenaline rush through me. I nearly forgot to breathe, my eyes jumping from his lips to his eyes.
I gave in, parting my lips only to feel his pressing against mine. His thumb was throbbing at the hollow of my neck, rubbing up and down, as our tongues fought for dominance.
Everything around us seemed to fade. As Knox won he pulled away, I start to whine but I noticed the need for oxygen was necessary the both of us. We both were catching our breaths. He eyed my clothes and his eyes darkened even more if that was possible. I noticed my clothes stuck to my skin.
Knox carried my horny self. My back made contact with the wall, my legs wrapped around his waist and his hands held my butt for support. He trailed kisses down my neck and began sucking on the spot and bitting letting me know where he is gonna mark me. I growled in frustration when he pulled away.
"Knox, if you pull away one more time I will kill you." I growled.
"Are you sure?" He asked me, his voice raspy.
I nodded not trusting my voice.
"Use words, Zes." He whispered biting my earlobe.
"Yes," I breathed out.
He licked my neck which probably is a mark now making me moan. He bit me making me scream in pain and then soon the pain turned into pleasure making me moan in bliss. Knox retreated his canine from my neck and licked the mark so it would heal. A wave of exhaustion hit me. I know its pretty normal to get exhausted when you get marked.
(smut over)
"You're happy," Knox muttered.
I tiredly nodded. He can feel my emotions and read my thoughts.
"Your clothes are soaking wet." He muttered.
"Can you change my clothes?" I mumbled.
There was a moment of silence and then he replied
"You crazy woman what makes you think I can control myself seeing you naked ?" He asked surprised.
"Hmmm," I tiredly hummed.
KNOX'S P.O.V
This lady, my mate, she is crazy if she thinks I can control myself if I see her naked. I let out a sigh seeing my sleeping mate in my arms. Her leg is wrapped around my waist and her arms around my neck. I am carrying her like how u carry a child. I smiled as I glanced at her and mind linked Charlotte.
'Char, could you um.... change Zes's clothes ?' I asked.
'Yea I will be right there' She replied.
I dont think anyone needs a reason here. They must have figured it out.
After Char took Zes to her room to change her clothes I went to take my much needed cold shower.
~~~~~~~~~~
I went down to take some snacks, my laptop, and my phone. That's when I found James looting our pantry. I let out growl making him jump and dropping stuff he was looting.
"I can't believe you going to be a beta" I shook my head.
"Dont mind me... but you look like you enjoyed yourself" He smirked eyeing my neck.
I do the best thing a person could do to annoy him.....ignore. He hates being ignored. I inwardly chuckled evilly and walked past him. I laughed in victory when I heard a frustrated growl.
I entered Zes's room to find her sleeping on her bed. I made myself comfortable near her and started scrolling through Netflix. As if sensing my presence Zes snuggled closer to me which made me smile and my wolf howl in happiness.
Seeing Zes sleeping soundly made me change my plans. Sleeping next to mate sounds good, I thought to myself. I put the snacks and my laptop in the nearby table before pulling Zes towards me. I inhaled her scent and smiled as her scent has been masked by mine, making all werewolves know she is MINE. Taking in her scent I drifted off to sleep.
