We'll Go No More A-Roving
Though the night was made for loving
And the day returns too soon
Yet we'll go no more a-roving
By the light of the moon

"Axel...wait...somebody could see." I murmured, my mind was completely alert for any foreign sound that could be another member of the pack.
"Calm down Will" he reassured me, pulling me close to the bark of a tree. "No one will know of this, I won't let them find out." he hungrily kissed my neck, and his teeth grazed the nape of my neck. He was obviously holding back from letting his canine teeth grow. "And besides, mother moon won't tell."
'He's right...' I let my mind drift away, to take in his scent, completely different from his lycan form, but still pleasant.
"Axel!"
'Rafe!' my mind screamed and Axel groaned in disappointment as I pulled away. He let go unwillingly and turned to his friend with an angry look.
"What?!"
"You're missing out on all the fun!" Rafe ran towards us and patted me on the back "Come on, let's catch something. We have the night to ourselves and you're wasting your time talking."
"There's nothing wrong with a chat here or there Rafe." Axel responded smoothly, throwing off any suspicious thoughts Rafe could be having. "It strengthens friendships and makes you friends for life"
Rafe threw his head back and roared with laughter "Don't go soft on me Axel, you're beginning to sound like Vivian" he grabbed Axel's biceps and gave them a light squeeze "Prey awaits you Axel, humans need to be taught a lesson. Don't deny the beast within you that privilege."
Axel turned to me and his eyes softened a bit as if saying sorry, but just as fast as it had come it was replaced by a devilish smirk that ran along his well carved face.
"You're right Rafe. I've let humans run safe for a tad bit too long. Come Willem, let's catch us a prey." He threw his shirt aside, he as obviously going to scare humans as a beast.
"Sure, let's go" I followed his example a bit disappointed and rid my body of the warmth of my cotton shirt. 'Did I really think Axel would ruin his reputation for me? No, of course he wouldn't. This was merely a game, a relief for him, and it would have to end soon enough. I was crazy to dream'
