'Ive loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night' Galileo

Let me know what you all think, i'm not sure on this chapter

Fenrir's POV

I held the boy tightly as he sobbed into my chest. My poor pup. What had those wizards done to make him feel like this? They'd pay! But at the moment, I must comfort my sub. As his sobs started to subside, I gently sat us down against a large tree. He was still sniffling as he cuddled in close to me. I did not care for such feminine gestures as cuddling, but something inside me said the boy needed this. Needed to be shown what love was and could be. And I would be the only one to show him what it means to love and be loved. He was mine now. I tightened my hold on him and he looked up at me. I saw slight fear in his eyes, like he was afraid he'd let too much go and weakened himself.

'I-I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said or done that. I'm sorry' He babbled as he pulled away from me and put his head down. I growled at him and he jumped slightly.

'No pup, you should have done that. I need to know how you feel. I don't want you to ever hide anything from me. We're mates, I'm your dominant. It's my job to comfort and protect you from now on. Don't ever feel weakened or ashamed because you have human emotions.'

He smiled lightly at me. I think I'm slowly falling in love with that cheeky little smile. He settled down lightly into my arms and I hummed in contentment. I started singing a soft song that was sung to me by my Alpha and he sighed lightly. Our perfect moment was ruined by his stomach making a growl that would rival my wolf's. He looked up embarrassed. I chuckled and we stood up.

'I have food in my tent' he said quietly. I nodded and started to walk ahead of him towards it. I could sense him jogging to catch up with me again. As we were walking he tentatively slipped his small hand into mine. I pretended I hadn't noticed and continued to walk, hand in hand with my pup. I didn't want to make this more of a deal than it was, at least not for him.

Once wed made it to his tent we stopped outside. I let go of his hand and started to walk towards the rocks at the side of the tent.

'Fen? Where are you going? Aren't you hungry?'

'No, I'll be fine. I'll wait here until you're done and I'll go hunt later on'

'No, you'll come in here with me now and you'll eat with me because you're my mate and that's what we need to do!' he said quite a bit more confidently than I could see he felt.

I growled and raised my eyes at him.

'Careful pup. Are you sure you want me to be in your home? I may not ever leave'

'I don't mind' he blushed at me. I smirked as his blush deepened and I stalked towards him. I took him into my arms and kissed him, a little more roughly than usual. I could smell his growing arousal so I pulled away. He smiled at me and grabbed my hand again. I didn't want to rush him into this so I let him take control. He dragged me into the tent and I stood in the doorway looking around. The tent was so much bigger inside than it looked. There was a fully functioning bathroom, a kitchen, a large living space with some very comfy looking couches and a closed door I assumed led to his bedroom. He saw me looking at the door and he blushed. I smiled at my now suddenly shy mate and let him lead me to the kitchen.

'Is there anything specific you'd like Fen?' he asked me softly.

I resisted the urge to say I'd like him and just told him I'd have whatever he had. We ended up with soup and what appeared to be homemade bread. After we'd had our fill of the delicious meal we moved towards the couches. They were a deep green that seemed to match and bring out the colour of his eyes. In front of the couches was a roaring fire I hadn't noticed before and it gave the room a soft glow and a pleasant warmth. I sat on the couch and he sat facing me. We were silent for a few minutes and I kept noticing him look at my lips and then quickly looking away. Oh I could have fun with this!

'What are you looking at Harry?' I asked while purring out his name. He blushed again and started stammering.

'What is it you want pup?'

'canyoukissmeagain?' he rushed out without taking a breath. I chuckled lowly. I knew what he'd said and I knew what he wanted but I was going to make him say it.

'Pardon? I didn't hear you'

He glared at me.

'I want you to kiss me again. Please'

I smirked and he looked embarrassed. Rather than answering him I moved so I was leaning over him on the couch and started to kiss him with fervour. I wanted him to know he was mine and mine only.
