Chapter Together Again
🐺Kody🐺
I wake to the hushed whisper of Tessa which is weird, normally Sadie or Brandon wake me.
“Kody, honey wake up.” she says louder this time.
I open my eyes and look at her, “whaaat?” I’m a bit cranky. I barely slept because I was worried about Alester’s injuries.
“Hi Little Wolf.” I turned over and sat up in milliseconds. I thought I was just still smelling him on my shirt!
I bounce off the bed and hug him which causes him to wince and hiss in pain.
“You aren’t healed yet?” I questioned him, worried. He’s strong and healthy. He should be healing faster.
“He severed all the muscles. It will take a few days but I couldn’t stay there. I needed to be here with you little wolf.” he cups my face in his hand and instantly it feels like a thousand butterflies took flight in my abdomen.
“I-I’m s-sorry.” I say before I step back and help Tessa and Marcus get Alester into my bed.
I should be going to training and then going on patrol with Mason later but Alester is here. Marcus and Tessa leave us and I fidget not knowing what to do with myself.
“Little Wolf, will you stay here and cuddle with me?” he looks so hopeful.
I tell him I will but that I’m supposed to do perimeter checks with Mason. He tells me if I want to go with Mason it’s fine but if I want to stay he’ll get Marcus to go instead. I’m not sure he still has that authority but I really don’t want to go.
“Would you like something to eat?” He’s got to be hungry and I want to tend to his needs.
“I would, just something light and not too much.” he smiles his sexy flirty smile and thanks me.
I tell him I’ll be back soon and hurry down to the kitchen.
🐺Alester🐺
Seeing Kody warmed my heart, especially when he was so happy to see me. I hate that instead of cuddling with me he’s cooking for me but it’s sweet and I could tell he wanted to do something more for me.
I’m waiting for Kody to return when Alpha Zane links the pack ”there will be a pack meeting in thirty minutes, closing the link. Just show up”.
No nonsense, I like him already. My mom knocks on Kody’s door and comes inside.
“Hey sweetie, do you have time to chat with your mom?”
“Always.” I say as she sits on the edge of the bed.
“Alester... I am so, so sorry for what happened to you.” She looks so sad.
“It’s ok mom, I was defending Kody, there’s nothing you could have done because I’d do nothing differently.
“No, not that.” she fidgets nervously, “I mean about your childhood. I didn’t know a-a-and if I h-had I would have left him and we would have found somewhere else to live”.
I take her hand and give it a squeeze, “It’s ok mom. I don’t blame you. I know it was all him”.
She’s acting oddly and I hope it’s not because of what Les did.
“Mom just spill it you can’t have bad news for me”.
She takes a deep breath, “I... I have a new mate”.
“That’s amazing! Who is it?”
She smiles shyly, “Alpha Zane”.
“I’ve heard wonderful things about him, I’m happy for you both”.
She looks relieved, “Thanks. I... I’m still just so sorry. I was blinded to his nature because of the bond and I never wanted to believe he was capable of such horrendous things”.
“Mom it’s ok, it’s in the past. I have Kody now and he’s all I want and need.” I say in a dreamy tone.
Wow. She’s got a new mate. I wonder if our little Moon Goddess planned that before or after my mom rejected Les.
Kody enters the room at the same moment I look towards the door. I heard his heart racing down the hall.
“Hello” he says when he sees my mom.
She smiles at him and leaves us giving Kody room to lay the tray over my legs.
“Thanks Kody, you didn’t have to do this, you know.” I take the fork and dig into the delicious smelling breakfast he made me.
He made me scrambled eggs and brought me some orange juice. I happily eat and drink while he watches me to make sure I’m alright.
“I k-know there’s a m-meeting but do you think it would be ok if I-I sk-skipped it?” he quietly asks me.
“Would you rather stay with me?” he nods, “good, I can tell you what the meeting is about if you’d like”.
“Tell me!” he shouts.
I laugh and tell him that Alpha Zane and my mother are mates and that Blue Moon finally has a new Luna. He is so happy for them.
“Blue Moon is going to prosper more than it already has, my mother is a strong Luna”.
Kody gets a serious look, “she had to be mated to an asshole like your father”.
I can’t help but laugh, “you are right my love”.
His eyes snapped to mine. That’s the first time I used the word love involving him. He acts strong and he tries to be but I know he’s still all broken inside and feels unlovable.
“I love you.” I proclaim proudly, he’s mine and I want him to know how I feel.
He takes the tray from my lap and turns away from me. He sets it down on the dresser and I can see his shoulders shake slightly.
Shit... “don’t cry Little Wolf”.
I struggle to get out of bed but I get up and hobble over to him. I wrap one arm around him and lean on the dresser with the other. He fits so perfectly against me.
“You don’t have to be strong for me but seeing you cry breaks me. I love you and I want you more than I’ve ever wanted anything”.
“Y-you sh-should be r-resting”.
“I will but only if you come lay with me”.
Nodding he leads me back to bed. He helps me get comfortable and comes to lie down next to me. He can’t be as close as I want him to be but he holds my hand and kisses the back of it before we fall asleep.
🐺Kody🐺
I woke up and went to shower Alester felt like a furnace. As I was washing my hair I realized that he’s never been that hot before. Shit something is wrong.
"Something is wrong with Alester, we need a doctor immediately“.
I linked that to the whole pack. I don’t know any of the doctor’s that well. They took care of me a lot over the last two years but I was so messed up I had barely noticed anything around me.
A few minutes later the door slams open and the guy that came to the cabin with us runs in, in a pair of scrubs... I remember now he helped me when Alester rejected me.
“What’s wrong?” he asks in a no nonsense tone.
“H-he h-has a-a f-fever”.
“How long?” he asks me next.
“N-no m-more th-than th-three hours”.
“OK, Kody, I need you to help me get Alester to the infirmary. Can you do that?”
I nod and we carry him to the elevator together.
🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
Waiting. It’s the hardest thing I’ve done since I met him. I’m stuck in the waiting room while they rushed him into surgery. They had to go in and find out why he’s not healing properly.
Sadie pops in to see how Alester is doing. I explain that they haven’t told me anything yet.
“Awe he’s a fighter Kody, and he’s never had more to fight for than he does right now”.
“I really hope you’re right”.
She hugs me and then Tessa pops up, “Come on let’s go sleep. You aren’t going to be any good to him if you worry yourself sick”.
“Where did you come from?”
“Around.” she says matter of factly.
So informative. Tessa and Sadie take my hands and lead me back to my room. Marcus and Brandon are waiting for us. I wasn’t surprised to see Brandon but I was a little surprised to see Marcus. I didn’t think Tessa would be staying this time.
“Hope you don’t mind, but it was important to Tessa that she be here”.
“It would be weirder if you weren’t.” I point out.
He smiles at Tessa and Sadie instructs me to get into the middle, her and Tessa claim sides. Brandon almost begs them to hurry up since they have to get up at four to do patrol.
I’m so blessed to have my family. They always do their best to make sure I’m alright... I wish I was stronger but they never make me feel like a burden.
🐺Alester🐺
When I open my eyes I notice I’m in the infirmary. What happened?
“Oh thank the Goddess you’re awake.” Owen says relieved.
“What happened?” I ask with cotton mouth, it feels like I ate sand.
He hands me a cup of water, “You had an incredibly high fever so we had to go do exploratory surgery a few days ago, you developed an infection”.
“Oh... yeah Les coats his claws in wolfsbane”.
He sighs at me, “it would have been nice to know that before it slowed your healing so much you were able to develop the infection”.
“Sorry, I didn’t even think about that being why I wasn’t getting better”.
He grabs the antidote and says I should be feeling a lot better in a few days.
A few moments after Owen leaves Kody runs through the door. My baby looks so tired.
“Alester! I was so scared I was going to lose you.” Kody climbs up on the bed and hugs me.
It hurts but I want to hold him so hug him tightly, “you smell like all the usual suspects and Marcus? That’s surprising. He’s very possessive of what belongs to him”.
“Tessa wanted to support me so he was there for her”.
“How was sleeping with my mate? I can’t lie, I was surprised to smell you on him”.
“Don’t be an ass, I can share”.
“I’m sure”.
“You can bet your ass if Kody wasn’t your mate there is no way in hell I’d be willing to share my mate”.
“Thanks for being there for him... You big ol’ teddy bear”.
“When you’re Better we’re sparring, but you’re welcome. Get better soon I want my mate all to myself”.
“She’s all yours. Tonight Kody will be with me”.
“Hey! Are you listening?” Kody snaps his fingers to get my attention.
“Sorry Little Wolf, I was teasing Marcus”.
He sighs dramatically and tells me Owen said I can go back to my room but I need to use a wheelchair. I am perfectly capable of walking but I won’t fight it because if I do it will take me longer to get back to Kody.
“I’d do anything you asked because all I want is to sleep, wrapped in your scent.” a light blush dusts his cheeks and Kody rolls his eyes at me.
When we finally get back to his room the window is open and Tessa and Sadie are just finishing putting a new blanket on the bed.
“We’re so glad you’re ok.” she smiles, “we changed the sheets and blanket so you wouldn’t be assaulted by everyone’s scent.” She wraps the blanket around itself and shoves it in the hamper.
Her and Tessa grab it and start to head out when she turns around, “There are a bunch of clean cloths in the bathroom because you aren’t allowed to shower for at least 2 more days. Kody can give you a sponge bath.” they wink at us and close the door on their way out.
“She really likes to think about us together doesn’t she?”
“S-she j-just does it t-to t-tease me”.
“I know” I groan out and I pull Kody beside me using the waistband of his pants. I undo his belt and pull it from his jeans, throwing it on the floor. He grabs a fist full of my hair and forces me to look up at him.
“We can’t,” he protests weakly.
“I can do this” I say as I push his pants down. Good Goddess! He went commando... His cock bounces free and stands at attention, precum dripping deliciously from his tip.
Gripping his base I lick and suck the flesh on the underside of his perfect cock. When I get to the tip I flick my tongue over the base of his crown.
“Fuck”.
“You like that Kody?”
“Mmm.” he moans.
His breaths come fast and short as he comes undone. I take him all the way to his base and he groans and starts moving his hips.
“Oooh fuuuck yeessss”.
I look up at him. His head is thrown back and he’s panting and pulling my hair.
"Look at me while you fuck my throat“.
He looks down at me through hooded lids. His eyes are black with lust, his nails are digging into my scalp and his cock is pulsing ready to release. He groans every time his cock enters my throat and moans and hisses with every lick and suck I deliver when he pulls back. Kody tries to pull out but I grab his firm ass and hold him until he bursts.
“Alester” he whispers while he watches me eagerly drink down his warm seed.
“Fuck, Little Wolf, you taste absolutely fucking delicious”.
“Stop”.
Kody turns, removes his pants and puts on some really comfortable looking pajama bottoms. I ask him if he can help me get some shorts on. He does and After he helps me get into actual clothes he helps me into bed.
I think his bed is more comfortable than my old bed in RavenWood. Kody falls asleep almost instantly while I have a talk with Lex. He’s getting impatient and wants to complete the bond.
I watch Little Wolf sleep, caressing his silky hair. I can’t get comfortable so this is the best thing I can imagine doing.
After an hour or so I hear him mumble to himself, “I know, I forgive you Alester”.
I smile stupidly to myself until I’m tired enough to sleep.
Best. Night. Ever.
