A Kiss For Your Freedom

When I arrive at Dorian's house, I find him pacing back and forth in his living room. I rush towards him before taking him my arms. “He called me for help,” he said, hugging me. - And we're going to go help him, sweetheart, I guarantee it. ~ My Wolf will go faster. - I know. - You're going to have to climb on his back to follow us. - Do not worry about me. I'm not a fragile little thing. 'll hold on. I promis you. You need to focus on him. We must not lo it. ~ Let's go, we must not waste time. He lures me outside by undressing and like last time lets his Wolf take over. The latter is delighted to see me again and does not hesitate to show it to me by coming to rub against my face. - 1 too am happy to see you again my Wolf, but for the moment we have to go save Jason. He watches me as I pick up these clothes and bends over for me to climb onto his back. ~ We have to hurry, I said, we can't lose him. He growls as if he's answering me, he doesn't want to lose him either, I feel it and we rush through the trees. This feeling fantastic, the wind caressing my face as he goes faster, this feeling of flying although every time he puts his paws on the ground, my whole body feels it. It's something unique, that I had never felt before in my life, a total freedom, a feeling of ultimate protection while he goes ever faster. I feel that it's a kind of challenge for him, it's the first time we've been together in this way and he wants to show me wha he's capable of but behind this demonstration, feel that he is also worried than me. It takes us almost two hours before he slows down and tells me to get off. He turns to me before sitting down and rubs h muzzle against my cheek. I run my hands over his head before telling him, ~ You are truly wonderful my Wolf and I promise you and 1 will spend time together very soon. Everything is so new to me but I guarantee you that I want it, to see you, to be with you. We're going to spend a lot of time together, you can be sure that. He gives me a big lick before returning to his human form. - We're very close to our pack, he said, placing his hands on my shoulders. We need to think about how we're going to ge in. 1 could tell by the smell but I can already tell you that there is a line of defense. They can smell me like you? Let's just say that in their eyes you are not a threat. Even if they smell you, they won't make the connection, at least if y hide your marks. - And you have no way of hiding your presence? - Not to that extreme. But I can turn until I find a flaw, there is always one. - OK, 50 I'm going to play the poor lost young woman and you find him and get him out of there. - Above all, be careful. We're talking about Wolves and they're not all as nice as me and Jason. ~ 1 know, I feel it. Be careful too, we're not welcome here. He kisses me quickly before returning to his Wolf form and this time, he goes his way while I go straight. There are only a few meters, just a few meters to reach them. I move forward without trembling, this time, no one will take it from me agai A man stands in front of me after a few minutes, he appears threatening but I don't flinch, I wouldn't do him this pleasure - What are you doing here ? ~ What, you mean in the forest? According to the latest news, I would say that everyone has the right to walk in the forest He seems taken aback by my words so I continue, I have to give Dorian time to penetrate their defense. -And what are you doing here? - My work. ~ Are you a forest ranger or something like that? - Something like that. - I haven't seen any prohibition signs so can I move forward? - Impossible. - For what ? ~The area is prohibited. I feel my Wolf running, continuing to search as other people begin to approach. - But how far it goes, I mean if I turn off now, how long do I have to walk before I can get back on my way? ~ What are you doing here? he asks insistently. - Awalk, nothing more, nothing less. For what ? That presents a problem ? ~ Continue for three kilometers and then you can turn off. - Thank you, I said, smiling. It's reassuring to know that our forests are protected, I say as we move forward. Dorian has just found him and it's time for me to disappear. I continue on my way following these instructions, as if nothi had happened, while praying that Dorian finds him quickly. None of us thought about what would happen next, how it would influence our lives. I don't even know what I'm going to say to my sister to justify my absence and the fact that I to a car, but I know that I can't turn my back on her. I can’t turn away from him. I have confidence in Dorian, I know he will get there. Dorian’s POV I smell it with a smell of wet earth. He is locked up, he is imprisoned, unconscious, incapable of defending himself. My W rushes as if it were Emma, he is our other half, just like her. I head towards the smell, I could recognize it among a thousand, without any difficulty after all, he is mine, just like her. I slip through their ranks, advancing ever further while some are surely moving away to follow Emma at a distance, to ensure that she will not penetrate the pack. She is remarkable, she is not afraid and that is a very good thing because otherwise they would sense it right away and then she would be in danger. Really in danger. In less than five minutes I arrive there, there are guards, there are always guards. It's been an eternity since we fought, an eternity since we shed blood. Despite that, I feel that he is ready, much more than me, and he rushes forward without worrying about the narrow passage. When he's close enough for them to smell him, he doesn't hesitate. He rushes, fights, destroying everything in his path. His strength, his need for destruction takes me back years. When I wanted to defend her but I arrived too late. There's no question of it this time, I wouldn't los any of them, neither him nor her. My Wolf wreaks havoc and approaches his cage growling. He is hurt. I rush at the door with all my weight and it quickly gives way. I approach him as he lies on the ground. My nose comes to rest on his cheek to wake him up. I shake him gent! I don't want to rush him but I don't have time to wait any longer. Emma is all alone outside while Wolves are watching he He stirs slowly after a minute as I grunt, hoping he recognizes me. He immediately opens his eyes and smiles even thougl see him in pain. “I was sure you heard me," he said, coughing. I bend over so he can climb on my back and quickly leave the cell before anyone else arrives. I dart through their line as’ clings to me. I can't let him fall into their hands, Emma wouldn't survive it and I don't think I would either. I go ever faster straight ahead, always straight ahead until finally I leave their territory. I signal her and I feel her change direction, meters by meters but enough for the Wolves to start moving away too. I pick her up after a few minutes and finally, she also climbs on my back, clinging to him. I'm slower than on the way out, they weigh more when they're together, but we've remained discreet enough so that no o sees us, 50 that we can save a little time. We didn't even think about where we should go but automatically, I headed hon I'm going as fast as I can. I feel like Emma is worried, really worried. When 1 arrive, I break down the door with a bang, no time to transform before she heals him. She slides him off my back and leads him to my chair where she stretches him ot as best she can. - Well, you have to become Dorian again now, she said without even panicking. Bring back some cloth and hot water to clean these wounds and everything else in your medicine cabinet. I immediately resume my human form and obey him without asking myself any questions. When I come back to them, sh holds him in her arms and caresses his face. - You can't abandon us, darling, I forbid you. I love you, I know I've never told you this, but I love you, as much as I love Dorian so please don't leave me, don't leave us. I put everything on these sides before watching her do it. She takes off her top, revealing traces that I would have preferr to ignore. “F**k” she said, cursing under her breath. I'm not a doctor, I couldn't perform a miracle. ~ It's a Wolf, he heals faster than you, my dear. Itll be OK. He was pretty dazed, but he'll be fine. Take care of his head wound, the rest will be fine. She takes compresses which she soaks in water before placing on his head. He winces slightly, at least he reacts, that's a good thing. I place my hand on his before realizing that I have just taken him from his pack and that there is a chance tha we will pay the price. - I have to secure the house. Just in case, it's Wolves, they'll smell us. ~ We have to go. - To go where 7 ~ At my house. If we take my car, they will lose track of us and I live among humans, hundreds, thousands of humans. I wi them good luck in spotting us. But for that, we have to transport it. Grab some things, prepare what you need, I'l take car of the rest. We're going home. I have to leave everything, I know, with a snap of my fingers and yet, I don't tremble more than her, deep down, I know th this is what I really want.
