Chapter 7
"Are you warm enough?" Paul asked Evie. She was finishing her food as she leaned against him. The slight wind that had kicked up earlier left it cold on the bluffs.
"Yeah, I'm good," she replied. "What about you?" She looked to see him roll his eyes. "I forgot, you're always warm," she said with a shake of her head.
"Hey, what's going on? You look a little worried," he moved so he could look at her better.
"I'm a little worried about you to meet my dad," she responded.
"Worried he won't approve?" he smirked as he wiggled his eyebrows.
"No, nothing like that," she quickly replied. "Just worried he's going to act over fatherly." She shrugged. "Sorry I know it doesn't make sense." She let a frustrated breath.
"Yeah, I'm confused," he said scratching his head.
"Okay let me try to explain," she scooted away and turned to face him. "I love my dad but he really hasn't been around for the last ten years. He's always working and when he does take an interest in what's going on in my life, he acts like he knows me. It's really frustrating." She moved her hair away from her face. "When it comes to approval, I lean towards my mom and Derek. They are the ones who have been with me every day. Does it make sense now?" She was biting her bottom lip.
"You want your dad's approval but your mom and Derek's are the ones that really matter," he answered moving his thumb over her lips. "Don't worry, I get it." He leaned over and kissed her. He ignored the whispers from his brothers.
"Thank you," she said smiling. He popped her half eaten hot dog in his mouth. She grabbed Paul's empty plate. "Do you want more food?" She laughed as his face lite up at the mention of food.
"Of course he's hunger," Quil laughed. "He worked up an appetite after all the fun he had this afternoon." Jacob reached over and hit Quil, knocking him over the bench.
"Thanks man," Paul bumped fists with Jacob. He wanted to hit Quil for embarrassing Evie. Her cheeks were red as she looked away.
Bella rubbed Jacob's arm, earning her a big grin. "I'll go with you Evie," she said standing up.
Embry smacked Quil on the head when he got up. Everyone laughed when Quil looked up and had ketchup smeared all over his face.
"I like hearing you laugh. You should do it more often instead of getting mad," Evie whispered. She kissed Paul on the cheek and stood up. "Sure, let's go B," Evie smiled as they walked away. Paul gave Quil a dirty look.
Charlie watched the girls leave and stood up. Now was the perfect opportunity to talk to Paul. The kid wasn't bad. After the upbringing the kid had, he was surprised he didn't end up in jail. But after all the stories he heard of Paul's one night stands, he wasn't about to let his niece become a notch on Paul's bedpost.
"Don't judge him too hard Chief," Billy said as he looked at his friend. "He may be a little more seasoned than most but he's a good kid. After the hard life he was dealt, he looks like a saint compared to most." Charlie nodded before walking away.
"Crap," Evie muttered under her breath. Bella looked up from the plate she was making for Jacob. Evie nodded towards the guys.
"His timing sucks," Bella said shaking her head.
Paul was laughing at something Seth was saying when Charlie walked up to their group. The look on his face told him it would be a serious talk. "Hey Chief Swan," he stood up hoping Charlie would take it as an act of respect. Normally he could care less what anyone thought of him but this was Evie's Uncle.
"Seems like you boys are having a good time," Charlie said with a pat on Jacob's back. "I see the girls are getting you boys more food." He didn't know how he felt about Bella and Evie waiting on these boys hand and foot.
"Uncle Charlie, are you being nice?" Evie asked handing Paul his plate.
"I doubt it," Bella mumbled. She handed Jacob a plate full of food. "Dad," she said.
"I'm always nice," he scoffed looking at Bella. "I'm just wondering why these boys didn't get their own plates. It's not that far of a walk." His arms were crossed over his chest.
"Probably the same reason Sue got you a plate," Billy yelled chuckling. Sue began to blush while Charlie turned red. He glared at Billy.
Embry took a seat next to Leah. Man, she was beautiful. He understood Sam didn't have a choice but how could you not fight for her. He sneaked a quick peak at Leah and quickly looked away when he met her gorgeous dark chocolate eyes. His heart felt like it wanted to jump out of his chest.
Leah smirked at Embry's reaction to getting caught looking at her. "Didn't my mom get you a beer as well?" she asked innocently. Evie smiled at Leah and Bella tried not to laugh.
"We are talking about Bella and Evie, not me," Charlie said with no conviction.
Paul decided to take pity on Charlie, not to mention score some points in his favor. "Maybe now is a good time for that talk sir," he said putting his plate down on the log they were using as a back rest.
Charlie cleared his throat. "Yeah, that's a great idea. Let's have that talk," he looked at Evie. "Alone." He walked away and rolled his shoulders. Evie rolled her eyes.
Paul leaned down and gave Evie a quick kiss. He followed Charlie until they were a few feet away from everyone. But it didn't matter he knew his brothers and sister would hear every word. He shot Quil a look. The kid better keep his mouth shut around Evie. The little remarks he was making were working his last nerve.
"Leah," Evie took a seat next to her. "I just wanted to thank you for earlier." She pointed at her clothes. "By the remarks from Quil, I assume everyone knows about…you know." She could feel her cheeks turning red.
"You're welcome," Leah said. She wasn't sure if she liked Evie yet. She had more of a backbone than her cousin Bella. She looked at Bella and Jacob. They were laughing and sitting close to one another. Maybe Swan was finally willing to admit her feelings for Jacob. "How's your mom?" she asked trying not to listen to the conversation between Paul and Charlie. Out of the corner of her eye she could see her mom watching Charlie.
"She's putting up a brave front," Evie replied. She was looking at Paul. She couldn't stop the smile that appeared on her face. "It's kind of funny how Uncle Charlie has to look up to talk to Paul." Leah looked over to them and laughed.
"What's so funny?" Embry asked. Leah nodded towards Charlie and Paul. "He towers over Chief Swan." He laughed.
Evie turned towards Leah. "I have a favor to ask. You can say no, but I really need your help," she whispered.
"I get the feeling I might regret it but sure, ask away," Leah said with a smirk.
"Now I know you like my niece, it was clear the first time you two met," Charlie said in his professional voice. He felt at a slight disadvantage standing next to Paul. His height overshadowed Charlie's authority persona. "Evie is young with a lot on her plate. Her mother doesn't have long to live." He stopped talking for a moment and cleared his throat. "Her father and I have talked and when the time comes, Evie will be staying with me."
Paul already knew this information from Jacob and Bella. "Sir I can only imagine what Evie is going through. She briefly told me about her mom and dad. It's not my intent to add to her plate. I know you don't believe me but I really care about Evie. I've never felt this way about anyone before." He knew Evie was watching them.
Charlie just stared at Paul. He could hear some truth in what he was saying but he had a feeling there was something he was keeping from him. Actually he had a very strong feeling that they were all keeping something from him including Bella. "If you really care about my niece," he said in a fatherly tone. "Don't hurt her and definitely don't treat her like the other girls you've been with." He could see the shocked look in Paul's face. He held up a hand when Paul opened his mouth. "I've heard all the stories and I will not allow Evie to become one." The tension between them was rising until Paul looked at his feet.
Paul kept his eyes down until the anger inside and his wolf calmed down. He took a steady breath before looking at Charlie. "My past doesn't dictate my future," he finally said. "I don't expect you to believe me but it's the truth." He meant what he said to Charlie. He would never treat Evie like a one night stand. He may have slept around but he made sure they knew it was just for the night. But he knew the only way Charlie would ever believe him was to show him.
Charlie put a hand on Paul's shoulder. "Please don't ever think I place you in the same category as your father," he sighed deeply. After years of neglect and abuse at the hands of his father, this poor kid finally caught a break when his father up and left a few months ago. "You're a good kid. Just be careful with my niece." He shook Paul's hand before walking away.
Evie watched as Charlie walked away. Paul was looking out towards the ocean. His whole demeanor was stiff and tense. "I'll be right back," she said standing up. Leah grabbed her hand before she walked away.
"He may act tough and try to push you away," Leah whispered. She knew most of the pack could hear them but she was hoping Paul was too distracted to hear. "But don't let him. He needs you more than he thinks." Evie looked at Leah for a moment before nodding.
Paul sensed her before he caught her scent. He heard the hesitation in her steps. The simple touch of her hand on his arm began to calm him. He kissed the palm of her hand. "Don't worry, your Uncle was good. He left me standing," he chuckled.
"Good," she replied. "I would hate to hurt the old guy." She wrapped her arms around his waist as he pulled her close. They looked out towards the ocean without saying another word.
Billy looked out at all the young ones sitting around the bonfire. Pride washed over him at how far this young pack had come. They are the largest pack known to date. With the threat of rouge cold ones passing through their lands and the Cullen's still in the area, he knew this pack would not fail to protect the tribe. He smiled as he watched his son and Bella. Their time was close. He knew she was ready to accept her place in his life. She was finally breaking free from the cold one's hold over her.
"You did fine with Paul," Sue whispered to Charlie. She was watching her daughter and Embry. She sighed softly. If only her daughter would open her heart to someone other than Sam. She glanced at Sam and Emily. Anyone could see they gravitated towards each other. They really do belong together. She smiled when Emily pointed her camera in their direction.
"I hope so," Charlie whispered back. "Only time will tell." He took a quick glance at Paul and Evie. They were talking and laughing. Jacob and Bella were next to them laughing along with them. "Now if my daughter would only make the right decision." He took a drink of his beer.
"I know the feeling," Sue sighed. Leah scowled towards Sam and Emily's way before getting up and walking towards the ice chest.
Bella began to shiver. Jacob opened his jacket and closed it around her. "Is that better?" Jacob asked looking into her eyes. There was something different about Bella. He couldn't put his finger on it, but it was there and it gave him hope at the possibility for them to have a chance.
Bella smiled and nodded yes. Whatever preconception she had of not being with Jake seemed to disappear. Maybe he was right and imprinting would never happen to him. They could have this life together. It seemed her head was clearing and all her fears were fading away.
"If you keep eating, I'm going to roll you home," Evie laughed as Paul ate another hot dog. She wiped his mouth.
"I'm storing up energy," Paul muttered with a full mouth. He winked and rubbed her cheek when she blushed. He quickly swallowed his food. "My metabolism is high. I promise you won't have to roll me anywhere," he said smiling.
Collin and Brady dropped down next to Seth and Quil. Their plates were full and they looked tired. They waved hello before digging in. Quil leaned over as whispered to them before turning and talking to Seth.
"Where have you two been?" Evie asked. She realized they weren't around when she and Paul arrived.
"Patrolling," Collin mumbled between bites. Brady hit him as he realized what he said. He heard Sam curse at him for making a major mistake.
Evie looked around when everyone got real quiet. Paul was holding her tightly against him. She looked at Bella who was biting her bottom lip. The air around them seemed to stop and the only sound was the waves crashing below them. She looked at Jared who was looking at Sam.
"Isn't that what you and Paul were doing the first time I meet you guys?" Evie asked Jared. He looked confused. "That was the reason Paul was acting weird. You teased him about some girl who was out of his league." Paul's hold on her was cutting off her circulation. She tapped his hands a few times before he loosened his hold on her. Paul kissed her forehead and rubbed her sides.
Jared laughed nervously. "Oh yeah at Sam and Emily's," he said looking at Kim. "I remember that now." He shrugged it off and popped the rest of his hamburger in his mouth.
"Who was the girl?" Evie asked looking at Paul. She was smiling as he squirmed.
"What time is your dad coming tomorrow Evie?" Emily asked changing the subject.
"He texted me earlier, he is in Seattle taking care of some last minute work. He's driving here tomorrow afternoon," Evie answered. She turned to face Emily and rested her head on Paul's chest. She tried not to let it show, but she was disappointed in her dad. He would rather work than spend time with her, their family and her friends.
"When do you leave?" Embry asked sitting down by Brady. The pack was worried about Paul. They didn't know how he would take being away from Evie for an unknown amount of time.
"Tomorrow night," Paul answered. He didn't want her to go but he knew she had to.
Bella held on to Jacob. She didn't want Evie to leave but wishing for her to come back soon felt wrong. It would mean Aunt Kathy was gone and she wasn't ready to deal with losing her Aunt.
"I know you want Evie to come back soon," Jacob whispered. He felt Bella nod her head. "You're not wrong Bells; your Aunt would want the same thing for Evie too." He rubbed her back trying his hardest to comfort her as much as he could.
Paul felt Evie's body slightly shake. He knew she was crying before he heard her sniffle. "Please don't cry," he whispered. She looked up at him with tears in her eyes. He wiped the tears away. "Let's take a walk." She nodded as he got up and pulled her up as well.
"Take your time," Jacob said when Paul looked over his way.
"Thanks," he answered. He took Evie's hand and led her towards the cars where they could have some privacy.
"Sorry for crying back there," Evie whispered. "It feels like time is moving a bit faster than I want." She wrapped her other hand around his.
"You never have to apologize to me," he said giving her hand a squeeze.
It was dark by the cars since they were closer to the trees and forest. He sensed when she tensed up as they walked a bit further into the darkness. The moon gave off some light not that he needed it. His eye sight was perfect, even in the dark. There was a tree that split in two. Half the tree was still standing while the other half grew sideways, making a perfect place to sit.
"Evie," he pulled her down on his lap and wrapped his arms around her. "I don't even know where to start." He could see the tears in her eyes.
"When I leave tomorrow," she whispered trying not to cry. "I'm not sure when I'll come back. My mom…she only has…Paul," she leaned her head against his chest and cried. This was harder than she thought.
"I know being with your mom is your first priority. I would never try to come between you two," he said caressing her cheek. She took a deep breath to calm down. "When you do come back, I'll be here. I'm not going anywhere." He lifted her chin to look into her eyes. "What's going on in that mind of yours?" He was worried as he waited for her to say something.
Evie stood up and took a couple of steps away from him. "It's not fair for me to ask you to wait," she said looking at him. The moonlight didn't hide his handsome features. It also didn't hide the anger in his eyes.
"Is this about that asshole you were seeing back home?" Paul asked angrily. His hands were shaking at the thought of that son of a bitch touching what was his, what was theirs.
"No," she replied just as angrily. "I told you it was over with him the moment he cheated on me." She took a step towards him just as he took a step towards her. "There's something going on between us that I can't explain. I don't want to leave you but I also don't think it's fair for me to ask you to wait for me either." Her hands were on her hips.
"I don't want you to go either and I don't want you with anyone but me," he yelled as he looked down at her. "As for me being with anyone while you're gone, there is no one and I mean no one I want but you. That should be a given after this afternoon." He glared at her with a look that would have most of his pack brothers backing away from him but not Evie.
"Don't give me that look," she scoffed. The look in his eyes was scary but she knew he would never hurt her. How she knew that she couldn't explain. "It may intimidate other people but no me." She glared back at him.
Paul pulled her towards him. She tried to pull away from him but eventually gave up. There was no way he was letting her go. "Your right, there is something going on with us. I can't explain it right now but I promise when you get back, I will tell you everything," he said in a rushed voice. She tried to pull away again but once again gave up.
"Damn it Paul," she snapped. "That's not fair." She wrapped her arms around him. "Fine but the moment I get back," she said in a frustrated breath. "I want to know the truth. There is something going on and I don't like being the only one in the dark." He finally let her pull away but only a bit.
"I promise," he said before kissing her. He tried to hold back but he couldn't.
Paul dominated the kiss as he explored every inch of Evie's mouth. His hands were in her hair holding her in place but it wasn't enough. He reached down cupping her ass and lifted her up. She immediately wrapped her legs around his waist. Her hands were in his hair pulling him impossibly closer to her.
Evie moaned when her back hit the tree. Paul was grinding his hips into her as he slowly moved his hands under her shirt. His hands felt incredible against her skin. She kissed along his jaw line and moved to his neck. The taste of him was mouthwatering. Her head fell back when his thumbs moved over her nipples. She bit her lip to keep from moaning any louder.
Paul moved his hand down her flat stomach to the waist of her jeans. He could smell how turned on she was for him. Her scent mixed with her arousal had him ready for her. He needed a taste of her. The smell of the forest around them had his wolf on edge. The thought of taking her on the forest ground had him throbbing and aching to be inside her. Having her on all fours as he pounded into her from behind as he slapped her plump ass had him ready to explode. He growled when he heard the sound of footsteps. Fucking Jared!
He slowly pulled away from Evie and lowered her to the ground. He leaned down until his forehead was touching hers. "We're not alone," he whispered trying to catch his breath.
"Oh," she groaned. "This sucks." She took a deep breath but it didn't help. Being this close to him and not being able to finish what they started was beyond frustrating.
"I need to you tonight," Paul whispered. He could hear Jared and Kim making out.
"I need you too," Evie whispered. "But there is no way Uncle Charlie will let me stay out all night." She moved her hands over his chest. His muscles felt so good.
"Let me worry about it baby," he said as a plan formed in his head. "I plan on worshipping your gorgeous body all night." He kissed her slowly but pulled away before it got too heated.
"Let's go before Uncle Charlie sends out a search party," she took his hand as they walked back.
Paul sucked gently on her clit as he pumped two fingers in and out of her hot wet core. Her head was thrown back as she arched off the bed pulling on the sheet. She looked beautiful as she came undone. Her moans filled the air as her juices covered his fingers. She was panting, trying to catch her breath but he knew she could come again for him. He waited until she was half way down from her high when he sucked hard on her clit and gently bit it. He smiled when she sat up with her mouth open but nothing came out. He knew he took her to a place that was pure pleasure. She fell back and her body wet limp on the bed and her breathing became shallow.
Shit, she passed out again. This was the second time. The first time scared him but he knew it was from the continuous sensation of her body coming for over an hour. It wasn't the first time this happen to him. But he didn't want to think about those other girls. He wasn't going to lie, it did build up his ego but now he only wanted Evie. She was going to kill him for doing this again. It wasn't his fault being a wolf meant his stamina lasted longer than a normal person. He covered her up with the sheet and kissed her cheek. He ran downstairs to get her something to eat and drink.
He picked up her clothes before heading upstairs. He smiled thinking to how their night started out. Bella and Jacob really came through for them. It also helped that Charlie drank too much. He passed out as soon as his head hit the pillow. Evie grabbed some clothes and they quickly drove back to his place. He also stopped and bought two boxes of condoms. No way was he running out tonight. As soon as they walked in the door clothes were flying off their bodies.
When they got up stairs, he barely had time to put a condom on. He loved how her body opened just for him. Her tiny frame was able to accommodate his huge size. After the first round he set up camp between those gorgeous thighs and tasted ecstasy. He couldn't get enough of her sweet flavor. All he wanted was to be buried deep inside her.
The clock on the nightstand showed two in the morning. Damn they've been going at since ten and neither one of them showed any sign of slowing down. Unless you count Evie passing out twice, he laughed. He couldn't get enough of her. She tasted better each time and the sex was mind blowing. He normally never went back for seconds but with Evie he always wanted more. She looked so peaceful with her hair fanned around her. He licked his lips as her scent grew stronger around him.
He placed the food and water on the nightstand and debated his next move. Her breathing was back to normal which meant she would wake up in a few minutes. Fuck, he needed to taste her. He crawled under the sheet and moved up between her lovely legs. He threw them over his shoulder and began to lick her up. Her sweet juices coated his tongue. Her hand was in his hair as he heard her moan. The wolf wouldn't let him move as he continued to lick and suck on her clit. When her breathing hitched, he moved up her stomach and kissed and licked his way up her body. Her nipples were begging for attention but he was caught off guard when she flipped them over and straddled him.
"Again," she said breathlessly.
"What?" he asked moving her hair away from her face. He could see the seductive look in her eyes. It made him hard for her.
"You know what," she said before kissing him. She pulled away and caressed his cheek.
He grinned. "It's your fault," he laughed. "If you didn't taste so good not to mention hearing your moans especially when you scream my name, it was a fucking turn on." He sat up and kissed her.
"Is it normal to pass out when you orgasm?" she asked kissing his neck.
"Umm… damn that feels good," he ran his hands up her back. "It's been known to happen." He reached over and grabbed a condom.
Evie pulled away to look at him. "How many times has it happen?" When she saw the look in his eyes, she immediately regretted it. "Oh, I see." She wrapped the sheet around herself as she moved off him. She sat at the edge of the bed. "Maybe we should have the talk now since we clearly didn't have it before." She looked over her shoulder to see him look up and close his eyes. "Is it that bad?" she asked biting her lip.
"It depends," he answered still looking up.
"On what?" she asked. Her heartbeat kicked up a notch.
"Do you need the exact number?" he lowered his head and locked eyes with her.
Evie didn't look away. Did the number matter or was she wondering what number she was? It wouldn't change how she feels about him. She loves him. Oh God, how was that possible? She cared about him but was it love or lust. "Give me a moment," she answered picking up an apple and bottle of water. She walked out of the room and went downstairs. She took a bite of the apple and a drink of water.
The living room was cold but at the moment she didn't care. This was all too real and now she needed to think. She sat on the couch and pulled the sheet closer to herself. He cared for her that much was true. Did he love her? Was it possible to love someone in a short amount of time? But that wasn't the question he asked her. Did the number matter? She knew that she was far from being his first sexual experience but something told her, she was definitely his last. She jumped when something warm touched her cold skin.
"Hey, you've been down here for over an hour. I didn't know what to think when you didn't come back upstairs," he said kneeling in front of her. "Talk to me." He held her face in his hands. "Did the thought of knowing scare you off?" He moved his thumbs over her cheeks.
She grabbed his hands and moved them to her lap. "No, it didn't scare me off," she finally answered. "I don't think I want to know. I'm not sure I want to have this conversation just yet." She moved closer to him and moved his hands around her. She kissed him and threw her arms around his neck.
"Okay," he said a bit worried.
Evie could see he didn't know what to think. "Remember you said you would explain some things to me when I came back," she whispered as she played with his hair.
"Yeah," he mumbled. She ran her nails through his hair and it felt so good.
"I have something to explain to you when I get back," she whispered in his ear. "But for right now, I need you to take me upstairs." He moved back to look at her. "Let's finish what we started." She kissed him slowly as she let these new feelings for him wash over her.
Paul moved the sheet away from her. "Baby, we won't make upstairs," he reached into the waistband of his boxer briefs and pulled out a condom.
He didn't waste time as he quickly rolled on the condom and picked her up. He sat on the couch and slowly lowered her onto him. She moaned in pleasure as he buried himself deep inside her. Oh God he loved her. He stopped and looked at her. Wait, what? She caressed his cheek and he knew it was true. He loved her and by the look in her eyes, she loved him.
"Paul," she said in a breathless tone.
He kissed her and wrapped the sheet around her. This wasn't sex, it was more. He picked her up and carried her upstairs making sure he stayed inside her. He kissed her neck and jaw. When he entered the room, he knew this was now their room. He gently placed her on the bed as he moved the pillows towards the headboard. She pulled him back to her and kissed him but it wasn't urgent it was slow and sensual. He lifted her up until she was on the pillows.
"Evie," he cried out as he slowly moved in and out of her.
Evie ran her nails slowly down his back as he kissed her. This was more intense than any of the other times. With each movement her heart filled with love for him, her Paul. It was like he left his mark of love for her all over her body. She was his and he was hers. When he kissed her it was with passion not just hunger or desire. His name floated over her lips in a delicious way.
Paul moved his hips in a slow penetrating way. She brought out a side of him that he never knew existed. He kissed her neck down to her breast, taking a hard nipple into his greedy mouth. He slowly feasted on her nipple before moving to her other one. Her little cries of pleasure and soft whisper of his name filled his heart with love for her, his Evie. It wasn't the imprint that had him loving her, it was her. Everything about her was his to love.
When Evie came, it was slow and her body was floating. The usual hard and fast was nothing compared to this feeling. Her moan was breathless as her inner walls tighten around him. She kissed his neck as her orgasm climbed. She whispered his name before she kissed his luscious lips. Her hand moved over his back letting her nails gently scratch him until she reached the small of his back. Her hand progressed to the curve of his ass.
His movements were unhurried as he enjoyed the feel of her wrapped around him. He smirked when she squeezed his ass. He kissed her neck letting her moan and pant as her orgasm hit its peak. He pulled all the way of out her before gradually moved back inside her. The quiver of her walls pulsed around him. She was tight with each amazing push. He watched her head go back as low deep moan passed her lips.
The deep growl that rumbled in his chest moved up his throat and escaped through his clenched teeth. He felt her body shutter before she gasped as another orgasm captured her body. No sound escaped as a tiny tear ran down her cheek. He wiped the tear away as he looked into her eyes. He knew what emotion was coursing through her. It was the same for him but they both knew saying it at this moment wouldn't carry the true meaning of those three little words. He kissed her as he continued to leisurely make love to her.
Evie kissed him as she burned each touch and feeling she had for the gorgeous man into her memory. She didn't want to forget a single moment of their time together. Every word they said to one another needed to stay fresh in her mind. He was thrusting in her with a bit more hurried stroke. She moaned his name when he circled his hips, moving deeper inside her.
Paul was close to exploding. Her walls were throbbing around him. He moaned her name like a prayer. Her body was made for him as she opened up wider to take him in deeper. He pulled her legs over his arms as he deepened each thrust into her hot center. He sucked on her bottom lip before scraping his teeth over her lip.
"My pussy," he whispered as his hot breath brushed over her ear. Her gasp had the wolf inside howling to claim her. He slowly circled his hips before going back in her as deep as she could take him. "You're ours Evie." He pulled out leaving only the tip in. "This pussy," he groaned as he thrust inside her. She moaned. "And this body belongs to us." He moved his body against hers as he bit her neck hard but not enough to break the skin.
"Paul," she cried out in pure ecstasy. The bite was rough and it hurt but it also felt wonderful. It was primal and dominant.
"Say it," he said as his tongue pulled her earlobe in his mouth. He snapped his hips going deep inside her making her gasp and her body shiver with delight.
"Yours," she said in a shaky breath. She was close to coming.
"Our pussy," he said slamming inside her with enough force, she was seeing white dots. "Your body is ours." She cried out and clinched her thighs tightly around him as he snapped his hips and thrust inside her with an urgent pace. "Say it, we need to hear you say it." He kissed her deeply as he held her face still. He pulled away to look in her eyes. "Say it Evie."
She licked her lips and gasped for air. She was close and she knew he was too. "Your pussy," she panted as she tried to hold off her orgasm.
"Say it baby," he panted. Her body trembled as he moved faster inside her.
"My body… Oh God… my body is yours," she cried out as she stared into his eyes. A ring of gold swirled around the dark brown of his eyes. "Paul," she moaned as her walls squeezed him.
"Evie," he moaned as they both released their hold and came together. His body was floating as her walls squeezed him tightly.
The bed shook violently as they lost control but they never broke eye contact. She caressed his cheek as he throbbed deep inside her. His wolf growled as her scent filled his nostrils. He continued to watch as her body gradually came down from her orgasm. She gave him a shy smile which made him grin. The light red tint in her cheeks made his body tingle all over. He gently pulled out of her and disposed of the condom.
Evie cried out from the soreness she felt deep inside her. She was on her side with her hands under her cheek. Her eyes were barely open as she smiled at him. "Your eyes had a gold ring around them," she yawned.
"I must've made you see stars," he said pulling her close to him.
"Must've," she whispered. "Does it always get better?"
"Just with you baby," he kissed her nose. "Get some sleep." He moved her hair back behind her ear. She smiled as her eyes closed and her breathing became shallow.
Paul watched Evie sleep as he placed his arm around her waist. He sighed happily as he thought back to when they came together. He knew at once that the imprint was complete for him. The wolf and he claimed Evie as theirs but it wouldn't be complete until she accepted the imprint. He would wait until she returned. She had enough to deal with and he wouldn't add another complication in the mix.
He moved his hand to her flat stomach. A thought of her one day carrying his pup brought him to a place he never thought could happen for him. He had a future with someone he loved and who more importantly loved him back.
Charlie watched Paul pace around the living room before glancing towards the stairs and start to pacing again. Billy shook his head at Charlie when he opened his mouth. The kid was wearing a path in the carpet. Charlie looked at Jacob and Edward as they glared at each other. He felt like knocking their heads together but he doubted it would do any good.
"I thought Mitchell was due here this morning," Billy said breaking the silence.
"He should be here soon. There was a problem with the rental car," Charlie replied. He crossed his arms over his chest. "Paul, sit down. You're giving me a headache." Paul nodded before taking a seat on the recliner.
Paul glanced at the stairs waiting for Evie. He could hear the Doc telling Evie that the hole in her lung was closed. He gave a sigh of relief but he didn't completely relax until Sue confirmed the hole was gone. Charlie was still watching him but he didn't care. The only thing that mattered was Evie.
Carlisle walked down the stairs with Sue. "Thanks for your help," he said with a smile. He knew she would never trust him but none the less he did appreciate her help.
"You're welcome," Sue said. She walked over to Charlie and Paul who were standing up.
"How is she?" Charlie asked as soon as Sue was a few feet away. Billy wheeled himself over to hear what Sue had to say.
"Dr. Cullen and I agree the hole in Evie's lung is completely closed," Sue stated placing a hand on Charlie's arm.
"We both agree Evie will be able to fly out later today with her father," Carlisle added. "Evie shouldn't have any problems with her lungs but I did prescribe her an inhaler. Her asthma is very slight but I don't want to take any chances." He looked at Edward with disappointment. The more he declared war with Jacob the faster Bella pulled away from him.
"Are there any physical restrictions Evie should avoid because of her asthma?" Paul asked.
Charlie glared at Paul while Sue and Billy tried not to laugh. Jacob didn't bother to hide his booming laugh. Paul had the urge to flip Jacob off but Charlie was still glaring at him.
"What physical things are you referring to young man?" Charlie asked harshly. He wanted to hit Billy for laughing.
Paul rolled his eyes at Charlie. "She likes to surf and jog for exercise. I want to know if those activities will affect her asthma," he said looking at Charlie. He could see the older man shift his weight as he face gradually turned red.
"It must've been a good conversation if Uncle Charlie is turning red," Evie commented as she and Bella walked into the room.
Edward immediately stood up and reached for Bella but she side stepped him and walked to Charlie. "Are you okay dad?" she asked looking to Sue and Billy for answers.
Paul wrapped an arm around Evie as the tension in his shoulders began to fade away. He inhaled her scent deeply and almost choked. The sweet sickly scent of Doc Vamp was mixed with Evie's honeysuckle scent. He concentrated on her scent hoping it would overpower the Vamps.
"Evie shouldn't have any trouble with her current activities," Carlisle finally answered. "Her asthma won't restrict her in any way." He tried to avoid eye contact with Charlie who seemed a bit loss for words.
"Great," Evie responded. "I would hate to give up surfing." She smiled at Paul as he smirked at her. "But then again the waves here aren't close to the ones back home. Unless you count when a storm hits."
"Are you crazy? You're not going into the ocean during a storm," Paul shouted.
"Listen here young lady," Charlie yelled. "It's too dangerous to go off into a storm." They were going to have a serious talk about what's allowed as fun and what's definitely out of the question for any member of this family.
"I never said anything about going surfing during a storm," Evie said defensively. She took a step away from Paul and placed her hands on her hips. "If either one of you were actually listening. I said the waves are big during a storm." She looked at Charlie before looking at Paul.
"But you've gone surfing during a storm. Last year in Mexico," Bella stated before slapping her hand over her mouth. Evie shot Bella a dirty look.
"What idiot let you go surfing in a storm?" Paul asked fuming. He was staring down at Evie.
"Me," Mitchell McIntyre answered as he put his bag down. "Who the hell wants to know?" he looked at the tall guy who was standing in front of his daughter. By the angry over protective look, this must be Paul. He looked just like his father.
"Dad," Evie exclaimed with a big smile.
Edward listened to the thoughts of Evie's dad. He had some pretty strong feelings about his daughter dating Paul. He was afraid Paul was just like his dad. Paul Sr. was a womanizer who didn't care for anyone in particular as long as he got what he wanted, except with his wife Kathy. Hmm, that was a weird thought for Mitchell to have.
"By the look on your Uncle's face and not to mention the young fellow in front of you," Mitchell said shaking his head. "My cubby must be causing trouble." He pulled his daughter into a tight hug.
"I never cause trouble," Evie scoffed as she hugged her dad.
"It was my fault Uncle Mitchell," Bella said in a small voice. "I kind of threw Evie under the bus." She moved her hair back. "It was completely unintentional though." She gave Mitchell a hug.
"It's good to see you Bella," Mitchell said pulling away to look at his niece. "You have grown into a beautiful young lady." He turned to Charlie and shook his hand. "Good to see you Charlie." He respected Charlie and knew Evie would be in good hands when the time came.
"Good to see you too Mitch," Charlie smiled. "You remember Billy Black and Sue Clearwater." He took a step back.
"Billy," Mitchell said leaning slightly forward. "I was sorry to hear about Sarah. She was an incredible woman." He shook Billy's hand and patted his shoulder.
"Thanks Mitch," Billy whispered. He cleared his throat before speaking again. "I really appreciate the collages you sent us after the funeral. The photos captured Sarah beautifully." He kept the collage in his room. It was the first thing he saw in the morning as well as the last thing he saw before falling asleep.
"It was my pleasure," Mitchell replied. He turned to Sue and gave her a hug. "My condolences Sue, Harry was an amazing man." He pulled away to see her wipe a tear away. "Evie told us." He looked at his daughter. She was standing next to Paul who had his arm around her waist. He didn't know how he felt about Evie and Paul.
"Thank you Mitchell," Sue said. She leaned against Charlie for support.
Mitchell turned around and immediately recognized Jacob. He was a few inches taller than Paul. "Jacob, you sure as hell don't look like the skinny little kid that use to chase the girls around with mud in your hands. How are you?" Mitchell shook his hand.
"I'm good sir," Jacob said. "Thanks again for the collages you sent us. I know my sisters appreciated them too." He felt when Bella moved close to him. She placed her hand on his back.
"It was my pleasure," Mitchell said with a smile. He always thought Bella and Jacob would end up together. He turned to Evie and Paul.
"Dad, this is Dr. Carlisle Cullen," Evie gestured to her right. Mitchell nodded with a smile. She was avoiding introducing Paul, smart girl.
"Mr. McIntyre," Carlisle nodded before taking a step back. "As I explained on the phone earlier, the tiny hole in Evie's lung has closed. There should be no problem with her flying."
"Thank you Dr. Cullen," Mitchell said. He got a weird vibe from the doctor but he didn't know what it was. "Her mother wanted me to convey her gratitude for taking care of Evie." He glanced at Evie but she was looking at Bella.
"Uncle Mitchell, I like you to meet my boyfriend Edward Cullen," Bella blushed as she gestured to Edward. "Dr. Cullen is he father." Mitchell looked at the doctor and then at Edward. He noticed the same colored eyes but Dr. Cullen looked too young to have a teenage son.
"It's nice to meet you sir," Edward said. He noticed the curious look on Mitchell's face. "Carlisle is my adopted father." He took Bella's hand into his own. There was something off about this kid. It was the same weird feeling he got with the doctor.
Mitchell smiled but he didn't miss the slight shiver that ran over Bella or the way Jacob's jaw tighten as his hands balled up into fists. He could have sworn Bella and Jacob were together. The way they interacted with one another reminded him of Billy and Sarah. He turned to his daughter with smirk. He didn't like this Edward kid with his niece.
"We have come full circle and I must say, I'm surprised it took this long to answer my original question," he said watching his daughter slightly squirm. "Paul Lahote, I'm Mitchell McIntyre." He stuck out his hand and waited for Paul to shake his hand.
"Nice to meet you sir," Paul took a step forward and shook his hand. "Evie told me a lot about you." He kept his arm firmly around Evie's waist.
"Interesting," Mitchell commented. "Paul let's step outside. We don't have much time before our flight and I think the father and would be boyfriend speech is clearly needed." He let go of Paul's hand and tapped Evie's nose.
"Dad," Evie mumbled. She knew her dad would 'talk' to Paul but not as soon as they met.
"I think that is an excellent idea," Charlie commented as he clapped his hands together.
"It's okay," Paul whispered to Evie. "Better to get it out of the way." He kissed her forehead before following her dad outside.
Paul didn't say a word as they walked down the steps. They walked to the end of the driveway. Mitchell eyed Paul, trying hard not to put him in the same category as his father but he had to admit, it was hard not to.
"Charlie told me he talked to you about Evie," Mitchell began as he leaned against his rental car crossing his arms over his chest. "From what little I saw inside including the conversation my wife and I had with Evie, you care for her." He didn't like his daughter dating.
"She cares for me too sir," Paul replied. "I know you don't know me but I would never hurt Evie." He wanted Mitchell's approval for Evie's sake. It wasn't something he had to worry about before. But for Evie, he was willing to make the effort.
Mitchell sighed heavily. "I know, I can see it her eyes," he ran his hand over his face. "How old are you Paul?" he asked. They sure know to feed these kids in La Push. This kid was over six feet and looked about twenty.
"I'm almost seventeen," Paul answered. He didn't miss the disbelieving look Mr. McIntyre gave him.
"You look a lot older than seventeen," Mitchell scoffed. "You look so much like your father." He saw the surprised look on Paul's face. "I knew him. How's he doing these days?"
"He left a few months ago," Paul replied. "I haven't seen my mom since I was a kid." He tried to keep the bitterness out of his voice.
"Shit," Mitchell muttered. "Sorry to hear. Charlie didn't say anything and I never asked Evie." He looked at Paul through new eyes. "Do you have any other family in the area?" he asked. Knowing Paul Sr. it was probably best he wasn't in the picture.
"No, it's just me," Paul replied. He did his best to keep calm. Sam would kill him if he blew it.
"You live alone?" he asked knowing the answer.
"Yes sir," Paul answered. He knew what Mitchell was thinking.
"I could say I don't want my daughter over at your place alone, but Evie would kill me for not trusting her," he rubbed his chin. "Not to mention it's hard to threaten you when I won't be around." Great, how the hell was he going to keep this kid in line….a slow smile began to cross his lips.
"Chief Swan already warned me," Paul looked over his shoulder when the front door opened.
Edward and Carlisle walked out of the house deep in conversation. Paul only heard bits and pieces but by the worried look on the leech's face, he knew it wasn't good. He needed to get inside to check on Evie before talking to Jacob.
"Good," Mitchell said as he watched Edward and Dr. Cullen get into a black Mercedes. "Look your dad was a bit of a …womanizer. Usually the apple doesn't fall to far from the tree. Since we are on the same page, treat my daughter right." He held out his hand.
Paul shook Mitchell's hand. "I will," he said with a fake smile. He didn't like Mitchell and now he understood what Evie meant about her dad. But he was willing to put up with Mitchell for Evie's sake. He just didn't know for how long.
Evie held on to Paul and they walked through the airport. "I can't believe my dad knew your dad. That's weird," she said looking up at him.
"Yeah, I don't remember the old man mentioning another with your dad's name. But then again he only talked when he wanted to bitch about something," he responded with a shrug.
Charlie, Bella, Jacob and Mitchell were a few feet in front of them. Paul held her close to his side. A part of him didn't want her to leave his sight after Jacob told him what the fortune telling leech saw. But with Evie far away from here, she would be safe.
They stopped at the ticket booth so Mitchell and Evie to get their tickets. There weren't a lot of people in the airport. They had a few more minutes before they went through security. Charlie and Bella went to one of the coffee shops.
Paul watched Evie hand the lady behind the counter her ID. She moved her hair over her shoulder before turning around to look at him. She smiled and gave him a little wave. He tried to return the smile but he was having a hard time. She turned around when her dad began to talk to her.
"What time is the meeting?" Paul asked trying to distract himself. It wasn't just the wolf having a hard time; he was finding it hard to stay calm and let Evie leave.
"Later tonight," Jacob answered. "The pixie one was trying to get more information. Sam wants everyone to meet at his place before heading out." He kept an eye on Bella. She was insisting on going to the meeting tonight. It was the one time he and the vamp agreed. They didn't want Bella anywhere near this but of course the pixie thought it would be best if Bella attended. He caught the slight shake of Paul's hands. "Stay calm, here comes Evie."
Evie watched as the mask Paul usual wore appeared as he stared straight ahead. She tried not to let it get to her. She pulled out her phone and snapped a picture of him before he noticed. The picture captured his features perfectly. His broad shoulder had her biting her bottom lip as she traced her finger along his strong jaw with his full lips, those dark piercing eyes with his short crop of silky black hair. She looked up to see him watching her with that panty dropping smile on his face. She could feel herself blushing as she looked at her feet.
Paul could smell her arousal and growled when Jacob slightly shifted in her direction. "Ours," he hissed standing up. He walked over to Evie placed his finger under her chin. "Please don't hide your face." She looked up at him biting her lip. God, he needed to taste her one more time before it was too late.
"As long as you don't hide yours from me," she caressed he cheek. He took her hand and kissed her palm.
"I'm done hiding," he replied moving her hair behind her ear. "You're so beautiful." He leaned down and gently kissed her.
"That's us cubby," Mitchell called out to his daughter. "I'll keep you updated on Kathy's condition." Mitchell shook Charlie's hand.
"Thanks Mitch," Charlie said.
"Uncle Mitchell, give Aunt Kathy my love," Bella sniffled. She gave Mitchell a hug.
"I will Bella," he answered. "Jacob, keep an eye on my niece. I really don't care for her boyfriend." He shook Jacob's hand.
"That makes two of us sir," Jacob said with a laugh. Bella rolled her eyes at them.
Evie walked over to Charlie and gave him a hug. "Take care Uncle," Evie whispered. She was finding it difficult to talk.
"You too kiddo," Charlie said before stepping back. He cleared his throat as he looked away.
Bella hugged Evie. Neither one said anything at first. When they finally looked at each other they both began to talk at the same time. They laughed as tears streaked both their faces.
"I'll call you," Evie finally said. Bella nodded.
Jacob ignored the look on Paul's face and pulled Evie into a hug. "Don't let Bella out of your sight. She will need you," Evie whispered. Jacob pulled away with a confused look on his face. "Trust me." Evie patted his cheek before turning to face Paul.
"No tears," Paul whispered as he wiped them away from her cheeks. "We will see each other when its time." Evie nodded not trusting her voice. He held her face between her hands.
Mitchell nodded to Paul as he turned to give them some privacy. Charlie took a few steps away while Jacob held Bella.
Evie took a deep breath. "I'll call you after I see my mom," she said trying to smile.
Paul lean down and gently kissed her. He tried to pack as much passion into this one kiss. He wanted it to last until they saw each other again. The kiss was slow and gently. Everything around them faded away. It was just the two of them.
Evie put everything she felt for Paul into this kiss. She knew that time would pass but her love for him would grow. Her hands slowing left his hair and ran down to his shoulders. She knew they would pull away from each other and she would have to leave.
He slowly pulled away from her. The words were on the tip of his tongue but he couldn't say them. It would be harder to let her go if they said them to one another. He looked into her beautiful eyes and knew she was feeling the same way.
"No words until we see each other," he whispered. She blinked a few times before nodding. He kissed the palm of her hand before she walked away.
