Surprisingly, the others were already waiting for us in the room, i.e. Alpha, Beta, Gamma and their partners. I squeezed Damon's hand, feeling a little nervous. He wrapped his other arm around my shoulder and we approached the gathering.
"I suspect you already know, but I would like to introduce you to my new partner Tess. I hope you will welcome her and treat her as one of us."
"At last!" Zack walked up to Damon and hugged him, patting him firmly on the back. "You have no idea how happy I am for you. Tess, I'm glad I agreed to take you in." He placed a gentle hand on my shoulder, smiling at me sincerely. The others followed suit and congratulated us. We sat down at the table and ate a meal together, talking about everything and nothing. What was happening now was something new to me. Feeling accepted by everyone and seeing their sincere smiles made me feel comfortable and safe. For the first time in my life, I felt incredible joy inside.
After eating together, everyone went to their activities and unfortunately Damon had to stay with Alpha to take care of the pack's affairs. The man, apparently disgusted by this fact, did not want to let me go.
"I'll let you know when I get home" I said quietly, snuggling into his chest.
"Wait for me patiently. I want to fall asleep by your side" He whispered in my ear, giving me one last kiss before disappearing through the door of Zack's office. A pleasant thrill spread throughout my body.
With my head in the clouds, I headed home, looking forward to having Damon in my arms again. Maybe thanks to this I won't have these terrible nightmares anymore and I'll finally sleep normally. It would be good to get back to normal. I sighed, knowing how much all this had destroyed my body and mind. My thoughts returned to my overprotective partner and a warm smile appeared on my face. Thinking about what our life would be like together, not knowing when, I got home. Standing in front of the door, I turned towards where I came from and closed my eyes and imagined Damon.
'I'm back.'
'Wait for me patiently. I'll be back soon.' I heard his sexy low voice.
Dreamily, I went inside and sat down on one of the armchairs on the sofa. Who would have thought that my life would turn out this way. That I would meet someone like Damon and the others. That I will feel so good among them and that over time I will dare to talk to them normally without any fear. I felt like I was bursting with energy, so I decided to use it for something. I tidied up the house a bit and, thinking for a moment, walked to Damon's door.
"Now that we're a couple, he shouldn't mind living together, right?" I asked myself. "Maybe it's too soon... What if he gets angry?" I closed my eyes and remembered the moments spent with him. A smile appeared on my face.
"He'll be delighted" I laughed and started moving my things to his house. I was worried that I wouldn't make it before he came back, so I tried to get through everything as quickly as I could. The smile didn't disappear from my face. I enjoyed looking at our things all over the house. Tired but fulfilled, I sat on one of the armchairs in our living room and impatiently awaited his return. Knowing how we feel about each other, I finally decided to leave my old life behind. I understood how Adam and Julie felt about each other and that my children would not lack anything. They wished me a good life and that's what I was going to do. At the side of my beloved and the rest of his loved ones.
It was slowly getting dark so I decided to go to the main house for dinner, hoping that Damon would finish his work and we would go back together. I shyly greeted the others who also came to eat, took a portion for myself and sat at the table without disturbing anyone.
I'm at the main house for dinner. I said mentally to Damon, who quickly replied.
Give me a second. I'll be right there with you.
Hearing his response, I took another plate and made a portion for him as well. I started eating when, sure enough, a moment later I was hugged around the waist and kissed on the cheek. Damon greeted me with his happy green eyes that looked at me like I was his whole world. I showed him his plate and continued eating.
"What interesting things did you do while I was gone?" He whispered in my ear.
"You'll find out when we get home, now eat" I replied mysteriously, looking forward to his reaction.
Damon looked at me curiously and started eating in huge bites. No wonder he finished before me. I ate my portion with a smile and was pulled over by an extremely impatient man. Walking along the path, I walked thoughtfully, not looking where I was going, so of course I tripped over a protruding root. Fortunately, my vigilant partner caught me at the last moment before I could kiss the ground.
"Be careful, beautiful. We don't want anything to happen to you" He purred into my ear, kissing my neck. I blushed at these words, smiling slightly.
"I know I'm in no danger with you, so I allowed myself to be clumsy for a moment." I pecked him on the lips and moved forward. When we reached his house, with my heart already beating fast, I motioned for him to go in first.
I was afraid of his reaction, even though I knew he would like it. I followed him in and stood in the living room, looking at him curiously. He slowly looked around the house, entering each room and spending some time there. I started to get a little scared when I saw his impassive expression as he walked past me into the next room.
Did he not like my idea after all? I got worried.
Suddenly I was embraced by my man's broad arms. Pleasant warmth combined with electricity spread throughout our bodies. Tucking his head between my neck and shoulder, he sighed heavily and then I felt it. I felt his body tremble. I hugged him tighter, not knowing what to do.
"Tess...I love you so much. This is the greatest gift you could give me." His voice was trembling as was his body. I took his face in both hands and gently stroked the scar on his cheek, staring into his glazed eyes.
"You're mine forever"
We wasted no time in engulfing ourselves in a luscious kiss, our hands roaming over our bodies, caressing each other. Damon quickly picked me up and, without breaking the kiss, took me to our bed. We looked at each other, hornier than ever. We wanted each other very much. By the time Damon had stripped off his clothes, I was already wet down there and my lower half was throbbing with pleasure.
He quickly removed my clothes and looked at my naked body with lust in his black eyes. Sex with him was amazing. I lost count of how many times I came from his caress and mouth, not to mention the huge part of him that practically made me hoarse. I fell asleep from exhaustion in his arms, unable to move a finger. Deep in sleep, I was carried to the bathtub and thoroughly washed, dried and transported back to bed.
I woke up only around noon, terribly sore. My body was covered with love marks and hickeys. There was water with food and a small note on the table next to the bed.
'You were wonderful. Let me know when you wake up.' The events of the night came back in full force. I hid my red face in my hands, groaning.
"I think I'm going crazy. He was amazing."
'Hey, honey. Thank you for the food.' I said in my head, trying to control it and not blurt out something like 'We definitely have to do this again.'
'Anything for you and you're right, we definitely have to do it again. But first, get some rest.' He purred sexily in response. I sat motionless on the bed, realizing that I needed to practice this way of transmitting thoughts because I was bad at it. I nodded firmly and hid under the covers, pretending I had dreamed it. To my surprise, I woke up at night, in Demian's arms. Actually, I was a bit hungry, but considering the night time, I gave up the idea of looking for food. I sat on the bed and silently watched Demian sleep.
One decision where I fought to do what I wanted and how much did it pay off? I ran my hand through his black hair, staring at him lovingly. He started to wake up, feeling my touch, and reaching for me with his hands, he embraced me tenderly. I snuggled into him and after some time I fell asleep again.
