Alice’s POV –
“Aunt Flora,” I called out to her as soon as the people started to disperse.
“Yes, dear?” She spoke.
“I have a question for you. Can we talk privately?”
“Of course, dear,” she replied pleasantly.
Ever since Mark’s incident I had a question running in my mind.
We walked into the house and I took her into my room. She sat down elegantly in the chair.
“I was wondering when you manipulated Mark’s memories, was something similar done on me when I was a child, after the attack? You know how I had repressed memory of that incident.” I asked cautiously, afraid of offending her.
I did not want to accuse her. I was simply curious.
She laughed.
“You are a wolf Alice; you are immune to most of the spells and magic. You are a supernatural being yourself. Our spells don’t work on you.” She spoke.
“Oh! But werewolves do take your help, right? I mean Lucian’s room has certain protection spells.” I spoke.
“That’s different Alice, those are enchanted objects, and some potions etc. do work for a few hours and on certain ailments, like controlling the heat or masking the scent. But our magic is not strong enough to harm a werewolf. It only works on humans. So be assured I did not manipulate your memory. Your memory loss was purely psychological.”
I turned red, “I didn’t mean that auntie.” I said embarrassed.
She held my hands in hers.
“Don’t worry dear, I am not offended. You are an incredibly special woman Alice; it was my honour to protect you all these years. Now, your mate must keep you safe. He is a wonderful man, and he loves you.”
I could feel my ears tingling and a warm feeling flowed through me.
“I have hurt him, auntie, because of my arrogance and stubborn attitude. I broke his heart and forced him to reject me. How can I go back to him?” I said tearfully.
“Nonsense, you are soulmates, you have been chosen by the moon goddess herself to be with each other, he can’t reject you.” She spoke.
“But he did, he broke the mate bond,” I said sadly.
“Yet he arrived to save you? Watched over you, made sure that you were safe. Even helped you to resolve Mark’s issue. Why would he do that if he didn’t care?”
She had a point.
“You think he would accept me back?”
“You are a beautiful woman Alice; any man would want you and Lucian is your mate. The way he affects you. You have the same impact on him.” She said with a wink.
Of course! The way he turned me on, his body would be reacting the same way. Why didnt I ever think of that? I was so obsessed with running away from him. I never thought about how unfair it was for Lucian.
“I understand your fears Alice, you had been running away from your identity, your destiny throughout your life. But you could not get away from it. It’s time you embrace it.” She grinned then winked at me.
I grinned back at her. Talking with her made things a lot easier to figure out.
“Thanks, aunt Flora, for everything.” I hugged her.
I had one more thing to do, apologies to Emma and Bobby. They would suffer needlessly because of me.
*******************
I was returning from Emma’s place when a familiar musky scent stopped me in my track. We were standing in the driveway, so I pulled Lucian away, into a thicket.
“I was looking for you,” I said while he raised an eyebrow.
“Me? For what?”
“I wanted to apologize…. for hurting you,” I said nervously.
His green eyes stared at for several seconds, “apology accepted.” He said as his lips twitched into a smile.
“And one more thing, I know I screwed up, but is it possible for us… I mean, can we be back together?”
“We were never apart Alice, we are mates. We can’t break up even if we want to.”
He moved a step further, pushing me back into a tree. I leaned on its trunk.
“In that case, Lucian Blake, will you take me as your mate and Luna?”
He grinned and leaned his head to kiss me on my lips. It was not a demanding or overpowering kiss. Just gentle and passionate enough to make me go weak in the knees. Good that I had support.
“Let’s go home, my Luna,” he whispered, in my ears.
Ever seen a broken dam? How the river breaks through the thick wall which had been preventing its flow. It gushes through the cracks, eventually washing away all traces of the barrier in its torrent of water. That is precisely how I felt. Once my wolf and I were in sync, there was no stopping. Our emotions overwhelmed us. My wolf was eager to be marked, and my body was throbbing madly for him. It was worse than the heat.
We were already making out and kissing each other madly like teenagers in the car before we reached the Crimson Shadow pack.
“Ahem, Alpha Blake, we have arrived,” Damon said after clearing his throat while Peter who was driving smirked.
“Uh oh!” Lucian’s muffled voice said from somewhere near my throat, which he had been nibbling on.
“Babe, we need to go.” He said, catching hold of my hand which was clawing on his back, from under his shirt.
Panting hard, I nodded. I smoothed out my shirt and hair. I could not do anything about my flushed face, so I just proceeded with him. There was an urgency in the way he escorted me towards the packhouse.
“Alice, it’s good to see you back, you look very…..pink,” Katherine said with a puzzled look as soon as we entered the house.
“Hi Katherine, I missed you,” I said, grinning back at her.
“Katherine, we are in a bit of a rush, see you later,” Lucian said.
Without breaking a sweat, he pulled me towards his quarters. The wolves loitering in the corridors jumped away, startled. He was hurrying so urgently.
He had barely shut the door before I was pinned against it. I closed my eyes, then felt his lips devour my mouth. His tongue broke through my lips and danced with mine. He tasted divine, and I was already aroused. I wrapped my arms around his neck, trying to draw him closer. I needed him badly. I could feel the pull. And the way he was caressing my body, he felt it too.
My hands roamed over his shoulder, catching hold of the fabric, I ripped off the shirt revealing his perfectly sculpted muscles.
He groaned in my mouth, as my claws trailed down his hard chest, barely avoiding scratching him.
His hands got busy getting rid of my clothes. He did not wait to undress, he simply shred them off my body until I was left in nothing. My clothes fell at my feet in rags. Pressing me against the wall, he latched onto one of my nipples and started to roughly suck on it. I arched my back and moaned in pleasure. Then he switched sides and started on the other one as well. I was already very aroused, and now I was being overwhelmed with sensation.
My hand raked his back, and he gave an appreciative growl. He left feasting on my breasts for just enough time to get rid of his pants and boots. The room was filled with the sounds of our moaning and ripping. Once completely nude, I could not control it anymore. I had to feel him skin to skin. I jumped at him and pushed him against the opposite wall, resulting in a giant crack. Our unbridled passion left little self-control, and our wolf was surfacing. He grabbed me by my ass, kneading it with his rough hands while kissing my lips again. His erection rubbed onto my core, making me gasp with need.
