Good morning readers! Thank you ShadowCub for the review. Enjoy the chapter.
Promise to hold you close and pray And all of the love we threw away
Watching the fantasies decay
Nothing will ever stay the same
And all of the hopes we've cherished fade
Making the same mistakes again
Making the same mistakes again
Muse "Falling Away With You"
Alayla's POV
My bare feet dug into the soil as I closed my eyes concentrating on the sounds around me. I could hear animals just a half mile away drinking from a creek and a bird in her nest a mile away. The listened to the pitter patter of paws on the ground making my eyes flutter open.
"Did you find anything", Leah asked me her voice slipping into my thoughts.
"Not yet", I told her and she nodded her ears slipping back against her head looking irritated. I stepped closer; her wolf form was just as tall as me. I ran my thumb along her long muzzle and slid my fingers up against her ears; a gentle purr came from her chest when I repeated the motion. I chuckled gently and rested my head on the side of her muscle listening to her purr; I closed my eyes enjoying the noise. Something wet and warm brushed my cheek and I jumped back wiping at me cheek. "Eww, Leah!" a chuckle burst from her throat and I glared at her playfully.
"Couldn't help it", she said her voice slipping into my thoughts again. I stuck my tongue out at her and she grinned. "Unless you're gonna be using that tongue I expect you to put it back in your mouth", she said winking at me. I smirked at her and turned away swaying my hips back and forth. A growl burst deep into her throat and I shivered. I looked into the trees leaning against a tree next to me. I felt warm arms slide around my waist and I closed my eyes when Leah's soft lips brushed against my neck.
"Tease", she growled into my ear and I shivered again. She chuckled and trailed kisses along my neck as her fingers teased along my hip bone.
"You shouldn't be in human form", I muttered gently my eyes half lidded as I enjoyed the feeling of her lips on my hot skin.
"I don't hear you complaining", she nipped at my bite mark and I moaned gently pressing into her. Her hand roamed up my shirt running her fingers along my stomach. "Ugh, your skin feels so good", she whispered into my ear. I turned around and slammed my lips against hers; she pressed me into the tree before lifting up my legs wrapping them around her waist. I pressed my chest into hers and she let out a growl. I ran my tongue along her bottom lip and she opened her mouth our tongues forging in a battle for dominance. We pulled away and I trailed kisses along her neck nipping at her earlobe.
"Maybe we should be patrolling", she said her voice husky. I hummed in agreement as I sucked at her bite mark; she moaned loudly digging her hands deeper into my thighs. "Alayla", she whispered. I pulled away and looked up into her half-lidded eyes that were filled with desire.
"I love you", I whispered gently. She smiled and leaned forward pressing a kiss to my forehead.
"I love you too…forever", she pulled away gently and turned away slipping her clothes off and phasing.
Later- Leah's POV
"How'd it go", asked Sam as we stepped into Emily and Sam's house.
"Nothing yet; I'm assuming they are regrouping", Alayla said plopping down on the couch probably feeling exhausted. I picked her up and sat down sitting her in my lap
"I've never seen newborns have such a control and a plan before", one of the Priapus said.
"They probably have a leader…must have been the leader of the vampires who were torturing me", deduced Alayla nodding her head at the end. I shuddered at the thought of something hurting my Alayla. She leaned her head on my shoulder and I looked down at her with a smile; she returned it revealing her canines.
"Are you hurting at all", I whispered gently looking down at her to check if she had any wounds.
"Did you feel any wounds earlier", she whispered into my ear and I shivered at her warm breath on my ear. I shook my head and she chuckled gently leaning back on my shoulder again. My thumb drew circles on her thigh where her shorts didn't cover.
"Princeps; shall we join in on the patrolling", Alayla lifted her head up to look at her fellow Priapus.
"Yes that would be a great idea; try to cover all area…if you find anything you know how to call", they bowed and stepped out to do what they had been ordered.
"How exactly do they call", asked Seth before shoving food into his mouth. Alayla sat up straight in my lap and rolled up her quarter sleeve to show her Priapus tattoo.
"If you push your energy into the tattoo; other's will sense it", she explained and they all nodded.
"How do you do that", asked Quil looking at her tattoo.
"Months and months of training you receive when you join the Priapus", she explained before leaning back on me. I grabbed her arm and unraveled her sleeve. She looked up and smiled pressing her lips to mine for a quick kiss.
"Alright; Seth and Brady your turn", Jacob and Embry stepped into the living room looking exhausted.
"Go get some sleep upstairs boy", Emily said stepping out of the kitchen to set some cookies down. The girls and she had been locked up in the kitchen cooking for hours; I suppose they were trying to keep their minds of the fighting.
Sam leaned over and pulled Emily to him pressing kisses to her scars; she gave him a smile. I looked down at Alayla and noticed her sleeping quietly in my lap. I could feel the love swell in my heart and I looked back up to see Sam looking over at me as he hugged Emily. He nodded at me and I returned it looking down at my Alayla; battles were happening outside but all I could think about was when Alayla was in my arms how complete I felt.
This chapter was meant to sort of bring Alayla and Leah closer again from being away from one another and now that Alayla is trying to be truthful with Leah. I hope you all enjoyed the chapter. Please review!
