"Mika?" He said, quieter than usual.
"Marshall…" I whispered back, "Please don't be mad, I didn't mean to-"
before I finished my sentence he was right up on me, sniffing like a dog. My ears and tail shot straight up and in a second i was standing; the urge to slap him was almost overwhelming.
"Marshall?" I asked in confusion.
Is he mad at me, or…?
After sniffing all over he finally responded. "Mika, is that you?"
"Haha… yeah. I kind of went through some changes." I said, as he circled around me, checking it out.
"But… you don't smell like you… not completely.." He mumbled.
I don't know what would change a person's smell. Maybe my new vegetarian diet? Or maybe because I've been around Dania?
"Are you mad?" I asked, sheepishly.
He stopped his inspection finally. He leaned in close and smiled, "I'm just happy to have you back."
Upon closer inspection, he didn't look well. He had large circles under his eyes, his appearance was kind of gaunt, and he didn't have his usual glow.
I reached up and touched his jaw, "Me too." I said, honestly.
Then he put his arms around my waist and pulled me in for a big bear hug. I could barely breathe!
When he put me back down on the ground, with his arms still around my waist, I took a deep breath.
My nostrils were suddenly filled with the most intoxicating scent. Time slowed and I could hear my heart flutter. I felt giddy and weightless. It smelled like the woods, right after the rain… mixed with a deep husky male scent that I couldn't describe with words.
I looked up at Marshall and felt like my body was being pulled towards him. As if I couldn't be close enough to him, even if i were to be smushed against his chest again. It was as if every cell in my body suddenly craved to be with him.
I heard a silky purr come from my chest, which was matched by the rumble in his. Our eyes were locked, and I was hyper aware of every part of out bodies touching. His arms were still around my waist, we were pressed against each other lightly, and my hands were resting on his strong chest.
"My Mate." He growled.
Mate~ I heard a voice in my head answer.
"Mate?" I asked out loud.
Before I could ask more questions, he buried his face in my neck and started kissing me. I could feel the low vibrations in his chest from his growls he makes when he's excited. However this time, he was matched by a gentle purr that was coming from me. He worked his way up to my ear while he started grinding his hips against me. Our breathing increased along with our desire. I could feel how hard he was, and I wanted him.
Before I knew it, he had carried me away from the path and shoved up against a tree. With one hand he grabbed my breast, which has grown in size since we last saw each other, and the other hand was braced against the tree trunk. A moan which threatened to escape was quickly extinguished by his mouth. He was kissing me, sucking on my lips, and probing in with his tongue. I reached up and wound my hands around his neck.
"I missed you" I whispered into his ear, while pushing my body closer to his.
He growled deep and loud, and reached down to remove my clothes. As I reached for his pants, I decided to take the opportunity to became acquainted with junior.
I started low, grabbing the base and running my hand along it. My hand barely fit around the whole thing. I barely got to have any fun when he suddenly pushed my hands away and removed his clothes.
He hoisted me up onto his body, my hands wrapped around his neck.
"I missed you too… you have no freaking idea…" He said as he positioned himself.
I held on tight at first, afraid I would fall off, but as he moved, my inhibitions faded away. With each thrust I could feel my core tightening, my entire body hypersensitive to every touch. My nose was filled with his scent, acting like a drug and causing me to lose control. I never wanted him to stop. Even though he's huge, it was like I wanted him deeper still.
He was thrusting faster and more aggressively, My n*****s rubbed against his chest, stimulating me further. Our moaning, growling, and purring all mixed together along with the slapping of our bodies.
I leaned back a little and felt the pressure increase. He seemed to enjoy this too. I could feel a wave building, my core tightening to the point that I thought I was going to burst. As he thrust again and again, harder and deeper, my body couldn't take it anymore. I finally found release and I moaned loudly the sensations overtook me. In that moment he buried himself deeply inside me and groaned. I felt his member twitching inside me.
As we both cooled down a bit, I looked him in the eyes and saw he was still burning with desire. We went another 3 rounds in the woods, until we physically could not continue.
*. *. *. *. *. *. *
Dusk was approaching, we laid on the forest floor, completely naked, just taking each other in. After we exhausted ourselves, we spent some time talking about what happened since we last saw each other. He was relieved to hear that I wasn't kidnapped. We have no idea why my scent changed, but he says that it's more potent now.
Marshall told me how much he missed me, how he felt when we weren't together, and made it very clear that we will never be apart again. He seems to be keeping something to himself though, I can feel there is something he wants to tell me.
"Marshall," I said, drawing his attention back to me. "What is on your mind?"
"About earlier…" He said
I hid my face against his chest, blushing. "I'm totally okay. It was fun" I assured him, awkwardly.
"Yeah." He coughed awkwardly and blushed, "But before that… I wanted to tell you something. It's important."
My blush deepened. How embarrassing!
"What is it?" I mumbled from my hiding place in his arms.
"You are my mate."
"Huh?" I looked up at him now, "Like chosen mate?"
"No…" he was still blushing. "Like I feel the bond with you. And I thought you felt it too."
Bond… I ruminated on what I learned from Dania and how I felt earlier.
"What do you feel?" I asked him, "How do you know?"
"First it's your scent… It makes me go crazy with desire. My heart starts beating fast, my wolf gets excited, My thoughts became fuzzy, and it feels like a trail of fire wherever you touch me.. but in a good way." He said.
I felt the same way. I took a moment to inflect and realized exactly how depressed I felt without him. In this moment, I feel like I couldn't bare to part with him ever. If he and I weren't together I would feel like a big part of me is missing.
This is it! It has to be. I can't believe I have a mate! And it's Marshall!
"I think you are right." I beamed at him. "We are mates."
