- Elide sees Lorcan's wolf for the first time at midnight as she stargazes in her backyard. Spotting the large midnight dark wolf, she whispers fluffy. Fluffy goes onto his hind legs and holds his paws out, a whine escaping his maw, demanding to be pet. Elide indulges him, and Lorcan's wolf licks Elide's leg while she scratches him behind his ears. Later, Elide buys Lorcan a collar for his birthday that's pink and says "fluffy" on it. On certain days when he's feeling it, Lorcan prances around in his wolf form to show who owns him, proudly. Only Elide's allowed to see it, though. He's still got an reputation to maintain.

- Elide tames the big bad wolf. He's a ruthless predator, and can take down bears and mountain lions at the same time. Cunning, sly, and powerful, he's the ideal epitome of the Alpha. The first time he sees Elide, he rolls into the river, trying to wash the blood off his coat, not wanting a monster to be her first impression. He doesn't expect the water to be cold, so he jumps out, and his mate's first words to him are you drowned rat. He bows his head and shamelessly and fruitlessly tries to clean his coat, and eventually Elide strokes him to help, and he loses it right then and there, his tongue lolling out and he pants so hard Elide thinks he's having a seizure.

-After Lorcan's been courting Elide, trying to swoon her over into the final stage of the mating process, she catches Essar and Lorcan chatting in her own backyard where she met Lorcan. Essar's hand touches Lorcan's cheek, telling him goodbye, but Elide doesn't hear that, and stalks out of her own house, and into a bar. After Essar leaves, Lorcan searches wildly for his mate, tearing the house apart, and tracks her scent to the bar. Seeing the other unmates males pawing at his mate, he roars and carries Elide back to their house bridal style. Elide's pouting and has other males' scents on her, so Lorcan, quite shamefully, turns to drinking. While Elide's moving her stuff out of Lorcan's room, she finds Lorcan clutching the pink collar to his chest. His eyes flutter open and he slurs out, asking if they're dating, and if she's single, if she'll have him. Elide merely gives him water.

- Lorcan doesn't have hangovers, much to everyone's dismay. He takes Elide to the woods for a picnic and asks her to be his girlfriend again from the start, and after he shifts into his midnight wolf, licking her and rubbing his fur against her body, she finally says yes. His wolf yips out and flops himself next to her, and Elide shifts into her white wolf. Two animals lying next to each other in the Sun, and Lorcan's wolf lightly bites Elide's tail, eyes holding raw playfulness. Next thing you know they're shooting through the woods, Elide a bullet, Lorcan attempting to nip Elide's paws. Elide races forward, stumbling into a river, cold water causing her body to shake. Lorcan's wolf licks her pelt dry and covers her shivering body with his, licking behind her own ears, just as she used to scratch him behind his own ears. He's so absorb with his mate's scent that his cock twitches, especially awkward as he's on top of Elide, who freezes. Lorcan jumps into the river for his own douse of cold water.

- They're stargazing in the backyard, Elide pissing in the spot where Essar last sat. Lorcan merely nips Elide's tail, and they sit at the fringes, blanketed in the darkness. Lorcan thinks he's never seen anything so beautiful under the moon, and staring at the white wolf, he knows that he belongs to her. Elide feels her mate's gaze, and turns her head, seeing his doting looks. Her wolf quickly looks away, while Lorcan's wolf yips, and the next thing she knows, her wolf's belly is exposed and Lorcan's rubbing his maw across from her. Elide relaxes into her mate's affections, and listen to his beast rumble of all the adventures of successfully killing bears and mountain lions, knowing its his male behavior trying to impress the female.

-It takes nearly a year for Elide to convince Lorcan for her to join him on a hunt. When she kills her first bear, wearing out her prey for what seemed an eternity, her mate cries, and licks away her wounds, howling to the wind that this female is his and how he's underestimated her. Elide merely shakes her head, and asks a favor from Lorcan, who agrees on the spot. The next day, Lorcan proudly hands Elide a skinned bear blanket with leather on the other side, a sign that she's not the damsel in distress and not unworthy of the predator. Her wolf rolls around in the blanket and cocoons in it so her head pokes out, and Lorcan's wolf strides over, and licks her face affectionately, showering her with kisses. When

- Elide goes in heat, Lorcan pleads for someone, anyone, to cut off his cock, which literally screams for Elide. He ends of locking himself with silver chains in the basement for prisoners so he won't unwillingly take his mate. Elide finds him and frees him, much to his protest, saying he doesn't want him to chain herself up like she was chained, all because of her, and Lorcan's too immobilized to move, his cock straining for her. The pain's so unbearable he shifts into wolf form, and growls lowly at his mate to leave, but Elide sits stubbornly on the cell floor, also in pain from the heat, and shifts, and both relinquish control to their wolves, who tackle one another, teeth snapping. With the last shred of his control, Lorcan licks the scruff of Elide's neck and carries her to the backyard's fringes, where they shift under the fading moon, where Lorcan claims Elide and they complete the mating process, tearing at each other as their inner animals howl in synchrony.

-Bonus: Elide and Lorcan have just finished their hunt and shift into their human forms. Elide screams, seeing a large spider on Lorcan's ass. Lorcan just cheekily grins while Elide demands Lorcan smack it. Being the total muscle master, Lorcan flexes his ass cheeks and the spider falls off, because yes, he does have an ass, while Elide simultaneously swallows and reaches forward to smack the spide, but misses, ending up spanking Lorcan harshly, who's wearing the pink fluffy collar.
