Braden

After training, Braden met up with Cassie as she was walking back to the mansion. They instinctively linked hands and retired to their quarters. Neither spoke, both were consumed in their own thoughts and she seemed to have been as lost as he was. He gave her a quick glance, and for a moment wondered if her thoughts had to do with whatever was bothering her when she returned from the village. Would she tell him now?

As soon as they reached his bedroom, Cassie continued walking over to her bedroom area and Braden began to undress, once he was completely nude, he walked into the en suite and went straight for the ample walk-in shower with the clear glass enclosure. He let the water cascade down on him from the waterfall fixture above his head.

His mind drifted to what his wolf had told him; after he and Cassie had spent themselves with passion, Andrei and Evangeline assumed control of the bodies and couldn't resist copulating, since technically, Evangeline was in heat.

He began to cleanse his body of the sweat his body had produced during the intense training sessions.

A few moments later, he heard Cassie's side of the room open its door. He continued to wash himself. He could sense her in the room although she said nothing but he felt the weight of her stare.

He was rinsing shampoo from his hair when he felt her come up behind him, he felt her hands touch his wet skin, wrapping her arms around his torso. He felt her nakedness against his back.

He spun around. She had put her hair up in a messy bun. He caressed her jaw and noticed she looked very sad. "Do you want to talk about it now?" He asked gently.

She cast her eyes down and shook her head. He felt sadness and confusion in her. He tried to mind link with her but as soon as he was about to connect their minds, she asked him, "How did you get all these scars?"

He followed her gaze. "I had a few challengers for the Alpha title," he answered. "Former warriors of the old pack," he explained. "They wanted to bring back the old ways but I couldn't let that happen."

She caressed the marred skin. "Is that allowed?" She asked with a slight frown. "If you brought the pack back to life, they could have unseated you?"

He nodded.

"That's not very fair," she complained.

He placed his hand under her jaw. He waited until she looked into his eyes. "It is the way of the wolf, love."

He shut the water off and led her out of the by the hand. He grabbed a towel from the rack and dried her skin off gently. Once she was dry, he used the same towel to dry himself. He completed the task on himself quickly and roughly.

She reached around him for the bottle of body lotion she had placed on top of the vanity cabinet when she first moved in. She pressed on the plastic spigot until she had some of the white lotion on her hands. Without asking, she started applying it onto his back. "Would you like a massage?" She asked. "It feels like your back is coiled with muscle knots."

He twisted his neck to smile down at her. "That sounds great."

She reached under the cabinet and handed him one of the larger body towels. "Put this on the floor and lie on top of it, face-down. I just need to get dressed."

She was about to head to her area but he grabbed her wrist and stopped her. "Or you can give me an erotic massage," he pulled her in to his arms and kissed her softly. She reciprocated his kiss and slowly pulled away from him, "I'd have considered it if your back wasn't screaming for relief. Go," she said walking away. "I'll be there soon." He stared at her until she walked through the door.

With a resigned sigh, he did as she suggested. He went to his room and placed the towel at the foot of the bed. He sat and Andrei's confession resonated through his mind. He doubted Eva had told Cassie- or maybe she had. Although mating habits of their wolf-selves were functional, he wondered if it would have been enough to produce offspring? "She was in heat," Andrei answered. "Her body was ready and fertile. As you know, all it takes is one time."

"But do you think her capable of aborting my pup?" Braden asked.

Radio silence.

At that moment, Cassie walked in holding bottled water and another bottle, which he didn't recognize. She was wearing a gray raglan-style top with the number '23' on the front and a pink-colored thong that looked as if it would be very soft to the touch. Her nipples were outlined clearly against the gray top, he could immediately tell she was not wearing a bra. He smiled at his mate. "You're very beautiful." "And you're not a compliant Alpha." She scolded. "Please, lie on the towel now."

He didn't want to upset his Luna, so he did what he was told. He bent his elbows so he could rest his head against his arms. As soon as he was in position, he felt her straddle him by the thighs and he heard her fiddling with something. Within seconds he felt warm oil against his back. She brought herself to sit on his hips so she could lean forward, massaging the muscles, starting from the lower back, upwards and her hands would fan out in opposite directions once she reached the area under his neck.

She was a woman of many talents, his mate.

When he finally felt the knots in back minimize, her attention focused on his neck. "You carry a lot of stress in your neck and shoulder area," she told him.

"Hmmmm," he agreed lazily. "Comes with the title." She continued to run the tips of her fingers down his neck where it connected to his right shoulder. "Braden, what happened to the men who challenged you?" She asked.

He turned, which was a challenge since his mate was sitting on his back. He had to see her reaction. "Our wolves fight to the death, Cassie. It is the way of the wolf."

She looked horrified. As someone who had believed she was a human her entire existence, he wasn't surprised.

"Let me assure you, it was necessary." He tried to assuage her shock. "Otherwise, it would have led to an uprising against me."

She was looking down, he didn't know where, but she nodded.

He sat up and placed a finger under her chin to pull her gaze up. "It'll be the same for our pups. When one of them assumes the Alpha title, if another wolf wants to challenge our offspring for the title, he or she will have to accept the challenge and fight to the death."

Without an acknowledgment of what he said, she stood and offered him the bottled water. "You should always hydrate after a massage."

He tried to mind link but Cassie had perfected the art of shutting him out. He stood as well, accepting the long, rectangular bottle with a pink flower design on the front and drank from it.

The pink of the flower reminded him of the pink in her thong.

She was in front of him, bending over to pick up the towel from the floor. Braden took his right index finger and traced the thin line that covered the line between her butt-cheeks and moved it beyond that. Cassie gasped.

"Open your legs, sweetheart," he ordered. "Wide."

After a moment, she complied.

Braden finished the remainder of the water hurriedly and tossed the plastic bottle towards the trash can successfully. He grabbed the towel from her hands and tossed that aside.

He stood directly behind her and pressed his immediate erection against her ass for some relief. He moved it so it was just under the material, caressing that, which covered her opening and protected it from his invasion. His hands moved to the front of her body. He kissed the sensitive area behind her right ear.

He brought one hand up to her left breast, and gently squeezed. The feel as her nipple hardened into a very tight bud made him extremely hard, making his thrusts quicken. He wanted to be inside of her now, but first, he wanted to make her really wet for him.

He moved his right hand under the hem of her thong. He connected with her clit, some of her juices had already managed to flow upwards to coat it in her natural lubrication.

He heard her gasp when he pressed his finger hard against it and rub in circular motions. He drew his finger lower, making a "come hither" motion in her vaginal opening.

He felt her strength weaken as she nearly doubled over with a loud moan.

He spun her around and lifted her. He kissed her tenderly while making their way to the bed.

He lowered her with ease, biting her lips, flicking her tongue with his own. Licking the underside of her jaw, until he was able to deliver several nips to her neck.

She opened her legs and was now squirming her pussy against his cock. He could tell that thong was moist. If he took her now, he knew he wouldn't last. He needed patience so that he could please her as he wanted to. Braden reached the hem of her shirt and pulled it off easily.

He gave himself a moment to admire her full, round breasts. He moved his right hand back to her thong and moved his index and middle fingers up and down the surface; pressing against her most intimate surfaces.

His little minx deftly shifted her hips so that his fingers crossed the cotton barrier and slipped inside of her, making contact with her moisture. Braden was not deterred. He continued to stroke her from her vagina to her clit over and over.

He leaned down to kiss and suck her breasts while his fingers continued massaging her intimately, once in a while, he would moisten his fingers and run them lower and into her ass.

She moved against his finger, going crazy with the friction- did she want to get finger-fucked in the ass? The thought made him even harder.

"In due time, my Luna." He responded against the nipple he had corralled in his mouth. He sucked it hard as he popped it out.

Braden stood and walked so that he was now standing between her legs. He reached down to her thong and tore it off. He kneeled at the altar between her thighs and studied it.

Her lips were dark pink and swollen. They glistened with a mouth-watering liquid he couldn't wait to taste. He licked his lips in anticipation.

He grabbed her legs and moved them up until he saw it. Her tight little asshole. Braden licked his lips and began lapping the skin around it.

He felt her gasp and stiffen. "Braden!" She raised her shoulders off the bed.

He slid his tongue from her tight hole to her vaginal opening and up to her clit. He was licking her with a heavy pressure, clamping his lips around the little nub. When he felt her hands run through his hair and her hips involuntarily jump off the bed, he knew he was touching her where it counted.

He repeated the pattern, vagina, asshole, vagina, clit, over and over.

When he felt her thighs begin to shake, Braden pushed his fingers inside of her pussy and sought out the spongy surface embedded inside of her.

He again, clamped his lips against her clit but this time, he rubbed against the spongy surface; he sucked mercilessly, alternating with his tongue doing 'figure eights' against her clit with heavy pressure and incessantly stimulating her internally, he heard her scream, and suddenly she gushed onto his face. He pulled his lips away but now brought his thumb up to stimulate her clit.

"Oh, fuck Braden, I'm coming so hard," she said while panting. Her thighs continued to tremble as more fluid came shooting out of her. "Fuck! what are you doing!?" She moaned. "Oh god, that feels so good."

When the tremors stopped, he spun her around and grabbed the other bottle Cassie had brought in with her. He ran his tongue up her spine, and bit her on the shoulder. This time he broke skin.

Cassie moaned, she arched her back closer to him. "Oh, Braden." She moved her head to the side, offering him all of her. "Braden, I need you inside of me," she moaned.

He opened the bottle and spread some of the oil around her anus. He had only intended to stimulate her while he fucked her pussy, but the next words out of her mouth were hard to resist. "Mmmm, yes, Braden, fuck me in the ass." And he did, with the peace of mind knowing he didn't need a condom there.
