Chapter 38

(Her)

I’m in the dancing room as dance always has been a good stress reliever for me. I’m so focused on my movement that I didn’t realize Ezra was here looking at me. When I finally realize he is here I stop and blush.

“Sorry I didn’t know you were here.” I tell him.

“Dance for me, please?” He asks me.

I nod and start to dance for him. In the beginning, it’s just an innocent dance but as I’m dancing only for him my movements become more and more languorous and sexy.

He comes closer, his front on my back. He whispers in my ear: “Dance with me as you danced with Asher at that party.”

I know what party he is speaking about, the one I dance with Ash to make Mari jealous. I can do better than that... I swift the music to I just want to make love to you by Etta James. With a small movement of my hand, I bring a chair in the middle of the room and I push him on it. While he is sitting, I start the sexiest dance I have ever done. I’m brushing and rubbing myself against him. When the music stops I’m sitting on his lap, face to face. He is breathing harder and faster than usual. I can feel my cheek reddening and I avoid looking at him. He takes my chin in his fingers and forces me to look at him.

“Boy, you’re so hot!” He says before kissing me passionately.

I respond right away and let my hands explore his body. They are moving of their own free will and I can feel his muscles with my fingertips. His very strong and hard muscles. After a moment of hesitation, he lets his hands wander around my waist and my ass. Oh, yes... He ends our kiss and starts to kiss my jaw and then my neck until the spot he will mark me, marking me moan.

“The things, I want to do to you.” He says in a deeper voice marking me moaning again.

“Tell me you want it as much as I want. Tell me you need it as much as I need. Tell me what do you want, Liv?” He adds.

“I want you! I need you!” I whisper.

“Louder!” He orders.

“I want you! Take me!” I reply louder.

“You’re mine Liv! Mine only!”

“Yes, I’m yours! Please?” I beg him.

“Liv! Olivia! Wake up!” I suddenly hear far in the back.

What the heck?! I open my eyes to see Ezra looking at me. Why is he looking so worried? Wait... It was only a dream. Really? That can’t be only a dream! Because it felt so real! So right!

“Was that your dream?” I ask him.

“What dream? It’s half past four I was not sleeping. You just take a nap. You were moaning in your dream, I got scared you had another nightmare.” He explains.

“Okay...” I’m still feeling confused and hot by that dream.

He starts to speak but all I could think is how his body would really feel under my hands... How his mouth felt so good and so right... He looks at me weirdly.

“What?” I ask.

“Are you listening to me?”

“Sorry, that dream really disturbed me.” I explain.

“What was that dream about?” He asks.

I clear my throat: “Nothing... I was... dancing and I... fell in a hole.”

“And what are you worried about?” He asks suspiciously.

“It was a very long fall...” I shrug.

“Your smell is stronger. That’s weird.”

I block my respiration and I open my eyes wide before replying:” It’s the stress of meeting my brothers. I’m going to take a shower.”

And before he can reply, I’m already running into the bathroom. Thank goddess, he didn’t realize I’m aroused and this is why my smell is stronger. I need a cold shower now.

We are at Selina’s house, with Ash Logan and Angie. My brothers went back to their pack before our parents realized they were both missing but they will come back tomorrow. Knox will stay for a few days as he wants to spend some time with me. To make up for the time we lost.

Ezra has explained what will happen when he will mark me. How my wolf will awaken and I will have my first shift. Which means Alpha Will will know. This is a huge blow...

The boys are playing pool while Angie is the arbitrator. Selina asked me to help her with the food. Noah is cooking more often than her but apparently, she lost a bet and she has to cook for the next month. Noah protested when she asked for my help as she has to cook alone but she gave him a look and he just shut his mouth. You don’t contradict the future Queen she asked for my help, my help she will have!

“Finally alone!” She sighs.

“I just want to know how you’re feeling? A lot happened today and we also learned a lot. So I just want to make sure you’re okay.” She adds.

“I don’t know how I feel... I’m happy to see my brothers again but what if I gave them my trust too fast?” I reply.

“They didn’t lie. They were both sincere. I would have felt it if they were lying. Noah and I will stay in our guards. As you know Melinda and Phoebe are not close so the boys are not either. The competition between your mothers creates trust issues between them.”

“Thank you!” I tell her.

“And about the marking and your first shift?” She asks.

“I don’t know if I will ever be ready to let him mark him. And what about my wolf? Why is she angry against me for locking her down for so long?” I tell her.

“She will understand. I know she will because without that she would have never met her mate or be free. After she will be eager to be free that’s inevitable.” She replies, taking my hand to comfort me.

“Does the first shift hurt?” I ask.

“A bit but if you don’t fight it not that much.”

“Good. At least one good news!” I sigh.

She looks at me as she can see through my soul: ” Something else is bothering you.”

She is so annoying when she’s doing her Lycan’s magic!

“I had a dream...” I start but I don’t finish.

“About?” She asks. I can see she will not drop it so I groan and put my head in my hands.

“About making out with Ezra and begging him to mark and mate me.”

She doesn’t reply as she wants me to keep going.

I sigh and add: ” It felt so right and so good! Actually, I was disappointed that Ezra woke me up. He thought I was having a nightmare.”

“Really? He did realize your state? I mean when I have a wet dream about Noah, believe me, he can smell it.”

“Oh, he did smell it... He just didn’t realize why my smell was stronger and told him it was the stress!”

“And he believed it?!” She asks, incredulous.

“Yep. I’m grateful for how naive he can be sometimes! Pfft! I would have been mortified if he had noticed my arousal.”

“You shouldn’t. He’s your mate and the more you wait to mark and mate the more you will have these kinds of dreams.” She comments.

“Awesome...” I say with sarcasm.

“Anyway, you having erotic dreams is maybe the sign that you’re more ready to be marked than you think.”

Is that true?
