Me: SO! Here's the chapter for you! I thought a chlerek moment has been long awaited.

Lani: If your skittish around some fluff, and a few signs of a starting lemon, then you might want to skim.

Roxy: Oh, it's not that bad!


Two weeks had passed, and Casey was showing like she were three months pregnant already. The girls were discussing about baby stuff with Casey, things like the sex of the baby, and how fast it would grow. Casey had explained that the pregnancy was going to be the only thing that was irregular. The growth of the baby would be as normal as a human child.

The boys were off to the side discussing battle strategy, and ways of preventing the next attack. Simon had suggested leaving for someplace safer. Tuck also made a point of staying, saying that if they could find them here, they could find them anywhere. What was the point in leaving, when they could just easily find them again?

Derek then proposed some new weapons. Weapons that they could use against the vampires, like homemade stakes, and flaming arrows. Vampires were still vulnerable to fire and the nature of wood. The guys congratulated Derek for coming up with different weapons, that he designed himself.

The guys parted for dinner, and Derek started looking for Chloe. She wasn't with the girls, so he thought she was somewhere out in the fields. He went outside of the barn, starting to get pissed. He told Chloe to stay inside the barn. It was for her own safety, but of course, she didn't listen to him.

Her growled, and ran his hand through his hair. He began to walk back into the barn when he saw a light flicker inside the house. He looked closely and saw a silhouette in the window. It was short, and skinny and he knew who it belonged to. He stalked over to the house, and walked inside.

He walked over towards the window where he saw the shadow. He walked into a room, and found Chloe covering the bed with new blankets and sheets. He walked up behind her, not making a sound. She didn't hear him come in, but she could feel that someone was behind her. When Derek cleared his throat, she nearly jumped six feet in the air. She spun around quickly to find Derek holding back a laugh.

"Still as skittish as ever." He said. She playfully hit his chest, her heart still racing, but not because of the sudden fright. "What are you doing in here?" he asked.

"I was just fixing the bed." She said, and turned back to fluff the pillows. "Since Casey will be going into labor soon, we decided she will give birth in the house." She said.

Derek had stopped paying attention, and only stared at Chloe's rear. He couldn't help it, even he has his needs. It's been a while since he and Chloe had some alone time, that didn't include her shaking in fear, or their lives in danger. Chloe turned around and Derek looked away embarrassed at what he was doing. Chloe was fully aware of what he was doing.

"Derek?" Chloe called curiously.

"Hm?" he responded.

"Look at me." She said. He hesitated before looking into her eyes. She could see the hunger in his eyes, and he wasn't hungry for food, not this time. It was a completely different hunger.

She raised her hand and brushed his hair out of his eyes, and giggled. His hair had gotten even longer, but it just made him even sexier. Her other hand trailed up his chest, making him shiver in delight.

"We can go get something to eat." She suggested, but she hoped that they would stay here. She was just as hungry for him as he was for her.

Derek wrapped his arms around Chloe's waist, drawing her closer. Her hand that was brushing his hair away, was now at the back of his neck.

"But I have you." He whispered. Chloe smiled, and pulled him down to meet her in a kiss.

The kiss was hot and heavy, full of passion and want. They knew that the others were starting to wonder where they were, but they didn't care. The only thing that was on either of their minds was this moment right here. The only thing they felt was the burning power down at the pit of their stomachs, and the feel of each of their hands roaming their bodies.

Chloe backed up, and fell onto the bed, but the kiss never broke. Derek's hand rubbed the bare skin of Chloe's waist, uncovered by the fall. Both of them were running out of breath, so when Derek began to pull back, Chloe followed sitting up, but then pulled away.

She pressed her back against the wall as she sat on the bed. The cold icy feeling of the wall made her gasp, but Derek's lips were on hers again and he pressed her up against the wall. Chloe moaned, as his tongue wiped across his bottom lip. She didn't hesitate in letting him in.

Derek growled with such want, it was driving him crazy. One of his hand snaked up Chloe's shirt, and Chloe moaned in reply, letting him know she didn't mind. His other hand was on her thigh rubbing circles, getting higher and higher.

Neither of them could stop. It was too long since they have been so close to each other. Derek's mouth moved from her lips, to her neck. He didn't have any trouble finding Chloe's sensitive love spots, and Chloe wrapped her fingers in his hair, pressing herself up against him.

"Derek." She let out, getting a tight squeeze on her thigh in return. He loved it when she called out his name.

"EWW!" someone shouted.

Chloe's eyes snapped open, but her head was still foggy from lust. Derek stopped what he was doing, and turned around to see who had interrupted them. His stomach fell when he saw who it was.

The twins, Mark and Sean, were covering each other's eyes, making sure the other wasn't seeing what they were doing. Standing behind them was Lauren, with a scowl on her face. Derek immediately climbed off of Chloe, and stood up a little ways away from Chloe. The only woman he was scared of was Lauren, especially when it came to Chloe.

Chloe stared up at her aunt, speechless. Her face was completely red, and her throat felt dry. Lauren looked at Derek with a glare, but then looked at Chloe, with a hint of disappointment in her expression.

"Chloe, get up." She ordered. Chloe got up off the bed, and fixed her shirt that had nearly come off. Lauren looked at Derek, clearly pissed at him. "If I ever find you with my niece like that again, you will regret it." She said.

"Aunt Lauren!" Chloe shouted appalled. Lauren spun on her.

"Chloe he is a wolf!" she shouted back, like that was the answer to everything. Chloe shook her head, starting to get mad herself.

"So? We've been surrounded by wolves for weeks, but you haven't acted so hostile towards any of them." Chloe pointed out.

"None of them has had their hand up your shirt!" Lauren shot back. Chloe's eyes went wide in shock.

"But Derek is my boyfriend! I'm his mate! He has a right to,"

"He does not!" Lauren shouted, and Mark and Sean began backing up out of site. Derek stood there, feeling awkward and a bit hated. Chloe balled her hands into fists. She had no idea why her aunt was being so rude towards Derek.

"Hasn't Derek shown how much he cares for me? How much more does he have to do so that you finally accept him? Until he proves himself to you?" she asked. Lauren shook her head.

"No more questions. Let's go." She said. Chloe felt so hurt that her aunt didn't want her to be with Derek. She didn't want to disappoint her aunt, but she loved Derek too much to leave him.

"Please Aunt Lauren, don't make me choose." She begged.

Lauren looked at Chloe, to Derek. She didn't want to hurt her niece, she just wanted to protect her. Lauren did like Derek, but she couldn't say she trusted him completely. He was a werewolf for peace sake! But she could see how much these two loved each other. She didn't want to believe it. She then turned around and walked away.

Chloe wiped away the tears that came down her face as she watched her aunt walk away. She knew her aunt was mad at her, but she was following her heart. She turned to Derek, and buried her face into his chest. His arms wrapped around her, and he kissed the top of her head.

"I don't care what she says." Chloe said, looking up at Derek. "I love you, and I will never leave you." She said. Derek felt his heart stutter at her words, and he kissed her gently. He knew she was hurting, but he couldn't help but feel happy.

"I love you too Chloe." He said, and she pulled him closer to her. They couldn't let each other go.


Lani: Can you say PMSing?

Me: PMSing!

Roxy: *sigh* What a Chlerek moment.

Po: I think Lauren had a right to get mad. She's just doing what a parent would if they ever found their child in a big make out session.

Roxy: The freak out was necessary.

Lani: We hope you guys enjoyed this chapter!

Me: I'll update as soon as I can. As soon as my schedule is clear.

Roxy: But for now…

Po: We are OUT!
