Clarke POV

"For God sacks, Clarke stay still! You are worst then my 10-year-old nephew," Luna grumbled having to grab Clarke under her chin to keep her in place as she was trying to do the eye shadow, as Luna has explained countless time. Whatever the hell that is Clarke hated it. She wanted to growl at Luna, the annoying female had insisted that her makeup need to be done before their double date. The female had already groomed her hair out and used this hot stick on her fur to make it spiral, it looked nice she had to admit but having that metal clamp practically burning her hair was scary. Clarke could literally see smoke coming off of the tool, she was certain it was going to burst into flames, she explained her worries but then Luna told her to stop being a baby and to put up with it. So now Clarke kept quiet but she couldn't help but move away or flinch when something odd touched her.

"This stuff feels weird, it's like I'm wearing some cloth on my face," Clarke cringed as Luna poked her with some plastic twig with soft fur on its end; Luna lightly dragged the thing across her eyelids the female has already told her she wasn't allowed to open her eyes or she'd accidentally poke an eye out. Obviously, Clarke didn't want that to happen so she kept her eyes closed but having this weird stuff pocking and tickling her skin was irritating.

Maybe she would be more comfortable if Luna had allowed Lexa to stay in the room with them but no Luna had to chase her out demanding space in order to prep Clarke. She pondered how on earth the human had managed to convince Anya to go on a date with her. Back at the sanctuary every other Wednesday Luna would come to work looking much nicer then normal, she'd have on pretty clothes, hair was combined back in braids or left down, and even wear flash jewels to grab Anya's attention. Luna would do work the same as always until check ups came around which was when Anya walked around the sanctuary checking each enclosure. Clarke has witnessed countless times as Luna would walk up to Anya chatting casual then asked if she wanted to go out on a date, Anya's turned her down each time but she seems to do it kindly because Luna would ask again the following Wednesday. Clarke known for a while how much the pair have liked each other, she could not only smell it but see it in how they talked about one another. Whatever happened the during week Luna had been successful because Anya came home on that past Wednesday night telling Lexa and Clarke they were all going on a double date this Saturday.

Now Clarke is being tormented by Luna with a deep grooming and getting junk smeared all over her face. Apparently Anya told Luna that Clarke didn't have anything nice to wear which trigged Luna to come to their home Saturday evening with two bags filled with things to dress her up. Luna surprisingly remembered who Clarke was with the whole"accident" at the sanctuary, the female had walked up to her before circling her like was pray, then said she was going to enjoy dressing her up. Clarke had tried to argue that the borrowed clothes she used from Lexa were good enough but Luna wouldn't hear it, the female shoved her to Lexa's room then began to doll her up. Lexa been with them for a little while staying close to Clarke which she didn't mind but Luna soon tired of Lexa trying to correct her grooming before asking her to get out. She listened as Lexa paced out in the living room complaining to Anya that Luna shouldn't be messing with Clarke. She found it adorable that Lexa didn't want to be away from her, Clarke had linked with her early on to reassure her female that everything was fine.

"The point of this stuff, is to bring out your features so that you can look even more beautiful then you already are," Luna scolded her for the tenth time, "and don't be dramatic! I'm doing your makeup natural, this is the lightest style within the makeup world," Luna tapped Clarke's nose with the stupid bristles, she would have bitten the damn thing but Lexa had asked her to be nice for Luna, plus she had to act human. Anya and Lexa told her not to show any of her wolf abilities as if Clarke needed to be told that, she is smart enough to know not to.

"Not as light as wearing nothing at all," Clarke half growled wanting to move away when she felt something wet touch the line of her eye lid. She had the urge to rub at the wet feeling but whatever thing that colored her eye lid dried up rather quickly. Luna told Clarke she was allowed to open her eyes, which she is more then happy to do so, though needing to blink a few times to adjust to the bright lights.

"Such a whiner, watch when I'm done with you. Lexa won't be able to keep her hands off of you," Luna leaned close instructing Clarke to look up as she used another wet thing on her eyelashes. Clarke wonders what in the world drove humans to want to use this shit. "Trust me babe, with this makeup and the dress I brought, you are so going to get laid tonight," Luna finished painting her lashes, she moved back inspecting the work she's done, Clarke blinked again trying to get used to the new weight. She watched as Luna dug through her bag for another fucking troche device.

"I've already laid with Lexa, we do it every night. Why do I need this stuff to do it again?" Clarke sighed as Luna pulled out a small brown tube, she pulls on the small thing and the top half of it came off, underneath there was some dark pink color peaking out. Luna paused before she brought the thing up to Clarke's mouth, her eyes going wide,

"Damn, already? Well what should I expect when you two been dating for like 4 months huh?" Luna laughed cupping under Clarke's chin pushing her face up as she brought the pink stuff close to her lips, she hummed in response as the female told her to open her mouth, "Lucky, then you best give me some of your luck then so I can get laid by Anya," Luna drags the dark pink thing across her mouth then showed Clarke how to rub the stuff in. Clarke did as she was told wanting this to end already so she could head out to the living room to be with Lexa.

"You look amazing Clarke! Come on let's get you in the dress without messing up my work," Clarke sighed getting up beginning to remove her clothes in order to put the dress on. The hoodie and pants were far more comfortable then the dress looked to be, she had asked earlier if she could just were them out for the date but that was firm no from Luna and even Lexa, surprisingly.

"Do I least get to look at myself? I feel like my own face is mask here," Clarke undid the pants letting them fall off of her hips then carefully pulled the hoodie up and over her head. If she messed up this make up Luna more then likely will start over and she did not want to repeat this. She heard Luna gasp while she was removing the other shirt, Clarke immediately sniffed the air for any danger but smelled none; tossing the shirt down she looks around for any signs of a threat but instead she saw Luna starting at her body.

"I'm sorry, I-I didn't realize you had so many scars," Luna looked away quickly even turning around, Clarke titled her head curiously, she didn't find her scars to be a bad thing or something that someone need not to look at. Of course, she got them in an awful way but she had survived the abuse and was still alive.

Clarke never really got why the humans seemed to get so sad when they caught glimpses of her marks. She didn't focus on the actual scars that covered her body just the humans who gave them to her. Personally, Clarke was proud of them because she had pushed on from the breaking point, the scars proved she still was in peace with her human self. Though Lexa and the others react the same way about the marks as Luna is doing. Anya and Lincoln avoid looking at them acting as if they weren't there. With Lexa it is a different story, Clarke has caught her staring at the marks, face stricken with grief as if she was responsible for them. Clarke hasn't told the humans anything because she didn't know how to approach that type of topic, does one simple say ignore the scars? Or just say that it's fine to look at them?

"It's fine Luna, these are from a long time ago, I don't care if you look at them. I just don't want to see any pity," Clarke warned as Luna hesitantly looked back at her, the human nodded meekly as she turned around yet she purposely avoid looking at Clarke's scars. Luna fiddled with her hands as she looked back and forth between them and Clarke.

"Sorry, I've never seen someone marked up so much. Would you like me to choose a different outfit? Maybe something to cover the scars up more?" Luna offered, she turned away for a moment reaching into her other bag pulling out a light blue dress. The material of the dress was rather pretty, there were deeper tones of blue roses all around the fabric making it appear like a garden. Luna held onto the dress sizing it up as she looked Clarke over again, the human seems to feel guilty about handing the thing over. Clarke shook her head then held her hands out for the dress, honestly she would like to wear the material, it looked so pretty. Luna unzipped the side before handing it over to her,

"I don't have a problem with my marks, besides you said you think this lace dress would look nice on me," Clarke fiddled with fabric in her hands, it wasn't like a shirt or like pants it was simply one long material. She turned the dress over until she found the end of it then carefully put the material over her head. She heard Luna step closer as she began to help to make sure she put it on the right way.

"It's perfect for you, the light blue really brings out your eyes. I was glad that Anya told me you didn't have a dress. I've had this thing for a while, never freaking fit me though since it is a size too big, plus it's too short on me," Luna pulled on the fabric tell it rested well on Clarke's body, once it was in place Luna zipped up the side and the dress clung to her body comfortably. She looked down at the material she actually really liked the color, it reminded her of the sky in the early morning. "Plus with your frame it hugs you just right, it's short but not border line of flashing someone," Luna giggles then stepped back while she looked Clarke over,

"And that is a good thing yes?" Clarke asked looking down at the dress, it felt different from the other clothes more space to move her legs and arms. The dress only covered half her thighs and all of her collar bone was exposed, it showed a lot of skin in Clarke's opinion, which was diffidently a good thing. Maybe she will ask Lexa if she could have more dresses, with this on she felt more free and wasn't too restricted like pants do.

"Yes, hey hows your wound by the way? I know it's been like what a few weeks since you got bit by Wanheda?" Luna asked looking at Clarke's arm were a fake bandage was wrapped around her forearm. Lexa and Anya had said they best pretend the wound was there, humans didn't heal quickly so they had to act like Clarke had the bite mark. She had suggested to remake the bite wound but Lexa had been against it entirely, her human really didn't like when she hurt herself. Clarke had already explained how her salva can close wounds, that it isn't a big deal that she bleed. She's even done a few examples of healing wounds that sure it stung when she got them but it wouldn't mater once she licked them.

"Roughly yeah, it's no big deal though she didn't bite in too deep, the Doctors say it shouldn't even leave a scar if I take care of it right," Clarke shrugged thinking that be a good enough excuse to not worry about proving there's a wound. She could hear foot steps coming towards the room she and Luna were in, with a small whiff she knew it is Lexa.

"That's awesome, gosh it's so weird how we haven't been able to find her, huge wolf like her doesn't exactly go unnoticed," Luna fiddled with Clarke's hair making sure the curls she done to the end of the hair were spiraled. A knock came to the door and Clarke knew right away just who was on the other side,

"Hey is everything alright? It's been like an hour you know," Lexa jokes but Clarke can hear the worry in her tone, she looked to Luna to be sure it was ok for Lexa to come in. Luna grinned nodding she headed over to the door,

"Worried I'll steal your girlfriend Lexa?" Luna teased as she opens the door just a crack purposely standing in the way to block Lexa's line of sight.

"No, I'm more worried she might bite your hand off because you keep messing with her," Lexa shot back grinning wider when Clarke snorted, Luna laughed then stepped back opening the door completely so Clarke could finally see Lexa. She smiled meekly at the green eyed beauty as Lexa caught sight of her then gasps, her eyes widen and mouth a gap as her female took in her appearance. Clarke felt her cheeks getting warm as Lexa's eyes traced up and down her body gaze lingering on her exposed breast.

"What do you think, Lexa?" Clarke nervously tugged at the fabric clinging to her hips, she glanced down as her cheeks grew warmer when Lexa continued to star, her hair falling forward covering one side of her face. Clarke looked up when she heard Lexa come closer, her female reaching out tucking the fallen piece behind her ear. She couldn't help but purr as Lexa cupped the side of her face, leaning into Lexa's touch she sighed.

"I think you look incredibly beautiful, my alpha," Lexa whispered sweetly, the gentle tone stroke a cord inside of Clarke that itched to to be sung, she didn't bother holding back. She gripped Lexa's shirt yanking her down, Clarke captured Lexa's lips in a quick kiss aware that Luna was still there giggling under her breath. She nipped at the plump lips squishing against her own, the tender flesh trembling as Lexa held her closer. Clarke reluctantly pulled away being sure to softly rumble to show her pleasure, she licked at her lips savoring the lingering taste of Lexa. Clarke chuckled as she saw that her female's eyes were barely opening, she saw that dreamy look on her face.

She has seen Lexa make this expression before, it would appear whenever she cuddled up with the human or when she'd wake from a good nights rest. Clarke felt her heart grow brighter just to see that dazed look in Lexa's eyes, she reached up to cup the side of her human's face and Lexa stared back at her sighing much the same way she had. Clarke truly loves this human, she would do anything and be everything for Lexa, whatever her human wanted she'd happily give it to her. Clarke guided Lexa to lean down so she may press a tender kiss to her forehead. Lexa closed her eyes wrapping her arms tightly around her waist, a gently smile caressing her lips. Clarke pulled back stroking Lexa's cheek as she moved back as well meeting her eyes, the world could vanish around them and Clarke wouldn't care one bit as long as Lexa stayed with her.

"Gag me green, you two haven't gone on your date, yet you're already goggly eyes for each other," Anya spoke from the door way yet the older female had an arm draped over Luna's shoulder. Clarke looked back at Anya sticking out her tongue in good humor, something Lincoln taught her to do vs baring her fangs.

"We best get going if we want to be on time for our reservation," Lexa finally spoke up from her haze the female needing a few moments to compose herself as turned to the group and wrapped an arm around Clarke's waist.

"Pictures first! Always got to take at least one before a date when everyone is still looking energetic and nice. I'll take yours and you'll take one of us," Luna ran over to the table grabbing a small bag, she dug around in it as Lexa chuckled and Anya looked slightly annoyed, but Clarke could sense the spark of joy that rised in her.

"I don't remember agreeing to a photo," Anya taunted as Luna came back with her phone in hand pressing at the screen while making her way back. Clarke watched the pair curiously as Lexa stepped behind her and cuddled close, to her horror she let out a happy yelp. Which caused Lexa to laugh then bury her face into her hair, as Luna looked at her concerned and Anya seemed ready to laugh as well.

"So you wanted to take a picture?" Clarke prompted praying to Gaia that Luna will ignore her small moment of weakness, she could still feel Lexa trying not to laugh against the back of her nap. But her female was failing miserably because Clarke felt the small puffs of air on her skin as Lexa continued to chuckle.

"Did Lexa tickle you or hurt you? That was a weird sound," Luna half joked as she brought the phone up pointing it at them, of course Gaia wouldn't listen to her silent pray. Clarke shrugged her shoulders trying her best not to let the blush grow stronger on her face. She elbowed Lexa's rib when the damn female choose to laugh again before helping her,

"My bad, I didn't hurt her just got her tickle spot," Lexa grinned as she moved out of Clarke's hair then rested a chin on her shoulder, she gave a small kiss as an apology. Clarke will take the apology for now but should she embarrass her that way again she well not hesitate to bite Lexa. Her female squeezed her waist a little, clearly seeking some affection from Clarke, she smirked knowing she had the upper hand now. But unlike Lexa she won't let her female embarrass herself if Clarke choice to ignore her, instead she turned her head and gave Lexa a quick kiss on her cheek.

"Ooh! Hold that pose, Lexa look this way yes perfect!" Luna squeals taking the picture as Clarke obeyed the command keeping still though Lexa did not listen and turned her head to press her lips against her own. Clarke chuckled, smiling as Lexa kisses her lips a few times a blush rose to her cheeks while Luna awed at them. Luna cooed at them like they were pups calling them adorable as she continued with the pictures.

"You sound like a fox with her kits, why are you so excited for them?" Anya asked as Luna stopped with the pictures then handed over the phone to Clarke. She took it hesitantly turning the device in her hands a few times trying to figure out how to use it. Lexa tends to let her figure it out on her own until Clarke got frustrated, and then she would give her some advice. Lexa always been good at letting Clarke explore new things even if she struggled with them her female didn't petty or baby her, something Clarke really appreciates.

"I'm a sucker for couples who aren't afraid to be lovely dove like this two, it's adorable," Luna lopped am arm around Anya holding the older woman close, the human hummed seeming to think for a second before she leaned down and kissed Luna's temple. That is when Clarke snapped the picture catching Luna's surprised expression before her face turned bright red though the female had the brightest smile as Clarke handed back the phone. Anya then held her hand out to Luna who took the offer and then lead Luna to the living room.

"Luna really likes Anya, I hope Anya will realize that," Lexa mummers as she took Clarke's hand the same way Anya had done, she gave her female's hand a small squeeze to reassure her.

She felt like cuddling up to her female second guessing why on earth they had to go on this double date. But Lexa instead on taking her on a proper date, that it was customary to spoil or show off their loved ones. Clarke didn't mind necessarily, she supposed it could be fun to go into the city and explore its many buildings, after all she's never been to one. She can only hopes the long drive as Anya said it would be, is worth the trip.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The drive to the city was completely worth it!! The amount of buildings and humans were insane, it was like a thousand shelters put together subtracting the animals, well minus the mutts. There were buildings that reached the sky and some buildings looked so small Clarke was sure she could leap on to them, and others looked like homes for clothes or shoes. The amount of lights that let up the city was enough to blind a wolf, so bright one couldn't even see the stars or moon, the entire city had a yellow glow. There were a number of different scents that went on for miles, some were bitter from unkept streets, things that smelled so sweet Clarke could taste it in her tongue, and most of all there were foods drowning in vast amount of scents she couldn't name even half of them. It is so enchanting how different the place is, the only down point was that the forest wasn't close, at least not from where their double date had chosen to go.

Lincoln had pulled some strings to have their double dates din at the male's father's restaurant. Anya had parked the vehicle down the road with a few other cars, it seemed to be a sleeping area for the rumbling beasts. They been taking their time to walk down a path as they made their way to the eating area, Clarke was looking forward to it but she kept getting distracted with so many things around. Lexa had relentlessly teased her about how she kept looking around though a quick nip at her collarbone remainder her to be nice.

Clarke had to remind herself not to be getting to overjoyed only because back in the car she gotten so excited she momentarily lost control of her wolf and her tail popped out. Anya and Luna were too busy talking to themselves in the front of the car to notice her mistake, thankfully only Lexa had been the one to see. Clarke had to close her eyes and focus to retract her tail, heart raising all the while as she regained control, her wolf had protested for a bit wanting to shift and let out the energy that had built up. With some encouraging words from Lexa, Clarke kept herself in tact and controlled her wolf.

"Please follow me to your tables ladies," a male spoke to them, they had been waiting to be lead to a table so they may eat. Clarke kept close to Lexa's side pressing against her as so many humans kept looking at her, she could hear them saying how beautiful she is. Clarke still hated to hear that word spoken from a stranger, it set her uneasy because humans had this greed of wanting to own beautiful things. The male lead them through the restaurant filled with many other humans and tables all around, some would pause to stare in their direction.

Clarke had to fight the urge to bare her teeth or to appear threatening, she didn't want the humans to look at her as though she was a display like in the past. She held on tightly to Lexa's hand allowing her to lead her through the place. Clarke took a deep breath to try to ignore the humans and instead focus on the foods all around, the scents were delicious, but she couldn't smell that many meats, mostly wheat. Clarke took comfort at feeling some of the humans fear, their subconscious knowing that she wasn't like them, that there was more to her then they could see. She may have grown a bit prideful that the humans found her intimidating, even a few of them seemed aroused by her, which was peculiar.

"Hey are you ok?" Lexa whispered in her ear jolting Clarke away from her surroundings to look to her mate to be. The female had a concerned smile as she looked around, seeming a little nervous but also a bit mad, angry for what Clarke wasn't sure.

"Yes I'm fine, there's a lot going on in this place, why do people keep staring at us?" Clarke whispered back to her she squeezed her hand lightly as yet another group of humans looked this way, they didn't say anything this time so she was not sure what about her attracted their attention. She was sure she didn't have her ears or tail out and one quick sweep of the tongue over her teeth insures that only four of her fangs were on display. Lexa huffed softly before she warped an arm around her waist and she was pulled closer,

"People are...curious when a group walks past their table," Lexa sounded kind of annoyed but it hadn't been aimed at her it was more for those who kept looking back to them. The male guided them to a table towards the corner of the restaurant and mostly out of view of the humans. As they paused while the male asked if the location of the table was alright, Clarke leaned up and nuzzled Lexa's cheek too sooth her making sure to purr a little since she knew Lexa enjoyed the sound. Meanwhile Anya asked for a different table one that was more private and away from the majority.

"Will you be needing anything else this evening ladies?" The male addressed them as they stopped at another large table with a black cloth covering it. Though the male seemed to be talking to Clarke as he was looking at her, he smiled at her as his eyes roamed down Clarke's body. Clarke didn't know what to say, not comfortable being spoke to by a human she knew nothing about. She did feel like smacking him though, Clarke didn't enjoy having the male's eyes gawking at her.

"No, we are fine, thank you," Lexa spoke to him sounding beyond irritated, the male nodded not really caring how hostile Lexa is being towards him, he casted one linger look at Clarke. When the others were deciding where to seat the male walked away slowly no doubt on purpose, so Clarke glanced at him to the side and growled deeply. The male's eyes widened before he moved along quicker double glancing back at her which only causes him to knock into a chair. Clarke laughed softly as the male hurriedly apologizes to the group he had disturb, she turned her attention back to her own group none noticing what she'd done.

"If looks could kill man," Anya said as she guided Luna to her seat pulling the chair out for her, Luna giggled as she took the invite.

"Right? He'd be burning alive right now must be a fan of the pretty lady," Luna added while Lexa repeated the same action Anya had done but this time for Clarke. Following Luna's example she took her seat as well while Lexa sat besides her and moved the chair closer.

"They all should be burning alive, can't mind their damn business," Lexa spoke loudly enough to cause a number of humans to look away immediately. Clarke felt a little shiver pass over her at the quick submission her female received from the humans.

"Why won't they stop staring?" Clarke choose to ask Anya since she always answered her even if some of the answer she did not particularly favor. Such as the time when Clarke let her curiosity get the best of her and she asked, what lesbian humans did to have a pup. Clarke found the answer rather sad that they could not produce one of their own, that they need to adopt a baby or go to a doctor. Anya looked to Lexa first though, so she did the same, the female was giving her friend a serious glare.

"Envies I'm guessing, so are you excited to try Italian food Clarke?" Anya spoke quickly seeming to want to change the subject, she sighed allowing the change since they seemed so desperate not to answer the question. Clarke made a mental note to use Lexa's laptop to figure out what envies meant.

"I think so, Lincoln always telling me that it's really good, but I'm not sure how this stuff works," Clarke grumbled glancing at the shimmering rectangular paper laid out in front of her. She can see foods listed like spaghetti, rigatoni, and cavatappi but none of this damn things made sense or sounded good. She looked to Lexa a silent call of help she hopes her female well understand without having to actually say it, she still had her pride. Lexa gave a wide grin all too happy to move her seat closer besides Clarke's and she began to describe the foods to her.

"Well my stars and heavens aren't you a gorgeous lady," Clarke looked up startled by the sudden new voice, it was a female close to her age if not a few years older she was dressed up in the similar clothes to the male. The female had a name tag on her chest, it read Wendy, the human was looking at Clarke waiting for something.

"Aren't you a sweet one for noticing, this gal here hasn't even told me that yet tonight," Luna spoke up gaining the weird woman's attention to focus on her instead as Clarke cuddled closer to Lexa. She really didn't like getting complements from the humans it didn't sit right with her.

"What would you like to try sweetheart?" The female turned to Clarke again after taking the female's orders, she didn't answer the human because she knew a growl will slip out sense the female moved closer. Lexa thankfully wrapped a protective arm around her shoulders and pulled her tightly into her side,

"She'll have the wheat grain pasta with the five cheese marinara and extra meat and I'll have the veterinarian cheese raviolis," Lexa answered firmly putting more bite in her tone then Clarke has ever heard from her, what had gotten under her skin? She turned to her female then pressed her face into Lexa's exposed throat purring softly. Wendy took their order and added she would be back with their drinks, once the other female was gone Clarke moved back.

"She is certainly friendly, you alright there Lexa? Something got you by the ankles?" Anya asked seeming to also sense that Clarke's mate to be was on edge. She figured the older female was trying to comfort her close friend, yet the way Anya bit at her lip she seemed more amused then anything.

"I'm fine, didn't think people wouldn't be able to control themselves, isn't it obvious that we are together, Clarke?" Lexa addressed her, she nodded immediately not wanting the human to think she wasn't listening because she had been hearing a conversation two tables over talking about how cute they all were.

"Obviously, you are my mate to be and everyone should know that," Clarke stated firmly, Lexa grinned the tension that had built on her love lessened though she continued to be guarded.

"Thank you baby," her female leaned down kissing her cheek, Clarke grinned she took advantage of the new closeness to turn her head and chase for another kiss to her lips. "Cheeky brat, you're wearing lipgloss remember?" Lexa laughed not at all angry for stealing a kiss, the female's lips now had a mix color of her pink lipgloss and the red that was already on hers. Clarke was certain hers were stained the same way, she flashed her fangs quickly delighted to see her female's fake irritation.

"Yeah no more trading kisses, yours will come off Clarke, Lexa's won't, she is wearing lipstick," Luna lectured across the table, Clarke rolled her eyes at the female before turning back to the duo who have been watching them. "Hey are you from Australia? You called Lexa your mate, is that like another way of saying she's your girlfriend?"

"No, I don't think so, I was born and raised a few miles from here, born in the fall right near my old home. I've never been outside of the country," Clarke noticed that Lexa and Anya had tensed up a bit, she hadn't said anything wolf like she did exactly what Anya has asked, to give a half truth. Luna looked a little puzzled, she opened her mouth so say something else but then Wendy appeared. The female had their drink on a small cart and she dropped them off to each person though when she came to giving Clarke's own drink she held it out to her.

"Here you go darling, a cold drink to cool that hottie of body of yours," the human smirked then winked at her, Clarke wasn't sure how to react she only knew that Lexa was not happy, she could hear her female clenching her jaws,

"Thanks, I guess," Clarke muttered reaching out for the drink as she gripped the cup she felt something against her palm, the human then grabbed the cart and walked away. Clarke inspects the thing that been poking at her palm to find a small piece of paper folded up.

"You got to be fucking kidding me, this girl either a bitch or stupid," Lexa growled out taking Clarke by surprise, she looked at her but the female was only glaring at the piece of paper. Whatever the paper had done to offend Lexa made it clear that she wanted the thing to vanish. Anya and Luna where both laughing and she was left more confused then before,

"I'm thinking she's a bitch, oh god jealous Lexa is hilarious," Anya laughed and Lexa then cast her glare towards her best friend, that's what is wrong? Her Lexa was jealous? Clarke sighed feeling far more relaxed knowing why Lexa was being so off. It definitely explained why Lexa had been so tense and became defensive when a stranger came to close to her. Clarke smiled to herself a blush rising to her cheeks, she shook her head though as if she would have eyes for anyone else.

"Shut up Anya! It isn't funny, I swear I'm going to punch her if she tries something again," Lexa grumbled pouting she took her arm back to take a sip of her drink, yet from how close Clarke sat next to her she could see how Lexa bit at the line of the cup. While the other two continued to laugh, Clarke allowed Lexa to have her little tantrum while she unfolded the paper to see what was inside.

"I don't need a spoonful of sugar to swallow you?" Clarke read the paper out loud causing Lexa to spite out her tea which back fired and splashed onto her face. The other females didn't fair any better each one pressing a hand to their sides as they laughed again. All of the noise they are making causes a few humans to look this way again but more so out of annoyance for the disturbance.

"Oh my god, does it really say that?" Luna chocked out through her laughter and Clarke nodded turning the paper around to show them. Anya reached out taking the paper, Clarke turned to her mate to be who was cleaning off the tea she had spilled on herself cheeks rather red. She chuckled softly at her mate's to be disheveled state, she had missed some of the liquid that had fallen down her neck. Clarke leaned over pulling Lexa down a bit to lick off the liquid that clung to the soft flesh, just to be mischievous she nipped. Lexa gasped against her lips and Clarke took another small nip to hear the female moan gently. She pulled back a little licking her lips enjoying both the drink and Lexa's wondrous taste.

"Why you are jealous is insane, I have no interest in anyone else but you, no one compares to my mate to be," Clarke whispered into her female's ear, she could feel the heat of the blush calming down while she leaned back satisfied to see the female now grinning definitely in a far better mood.

"I hope you know how much I love you," Lexa whispered back leaning down to steal another kiss one Clarke was gleefully to be stolen.

"And I love you my sweet human," Clarke kisses her lips one more time before turning to the other pair who had been talking to themselves. The offending piece of paper from before was in the middle of the table, she leaned over to grab it. Clarke looked at the writing again, noticing there a number written as well and underneath the numbers is a short message stating when the female gets off of work. As though on que Wendy was making her way to the table, Lexa tensed up but not nearly as bad as before. The female didn't say anything until she placed everyone's food in front of them.

"I hope you enjoy your meals ladies, it really gets the mouth watering," Wendy winked at her again, Clarke licked at her gums extending her fangs, she flashed the sharp points in a threatening smile, the female became nervous. She held out the small piece of paper to the female, a spark went off in her eyes seeming to get excited. When the human reached out she dropped the paper into her hand.

"I'm not interested in you and I have a mate so, stop bothering me and do your job," Clarke half growled being sure that the human took her seriously, the last bit of her words she felt something jolt in her chest, it was like a fire lighting up inside. Even the air felt like it was set ablaze, the feeling is like when Clarke made the mindless wolves submit; it is the strength to command, an authority that only an alpha can do. Clarke wanted to howl at the pure joy of realizing she has been able to summon enough energy to make someone obey. She's known that a alpha can command others but it wasn't something Clarke had ever used, well maybe a few times by mistake.

But this time Clarke gained the control of forcing someone to obey and the human defiantly felt the power in her words. Wendy looked shocked at first but slowly nodded and without another word she dismissed herself. Lexa was hiding her amusement behind her hands but Clarke could hear she was laughing while Luna stared at her wide eyed. Her mate to be didn't feel the strength but Anya might have, the older woman looked very serious for a moment as though she was focusing purely on Clarke and her body has stiffened as if ready to take action. Clarke looked to Anya tilting her head, a silent question as to why she seemed ready to pounce but Anya then smiled and laughed, shacking her head.

"Well I guess we won't have any more flirtatious acts then," Luna broke the silence that had settled over them, the humans were behaving funny, minus Lexa the other two seemed uncomfortable. Yet Anya has relaxed settling back in the seat as she then caught Luna's attention to chat with her. Clarke chalked up the switch in moods to the power she'd let out, she may have used too much and it interfered with Anya a bit.

"Totally get how wrong it was for her to be flirting with you, but baby there are nicer ways to handle stuff like that," Lexa chuckled leaning down she kisses Clarke's cheeks gently. She didn't know how she was not being nice she simply declined her approach and asked the human to do her work. Sure she could have avoided using her strength but the human had been rude about ignoring the obvious relationship she shared with Lexa. Clarke huffed but nodded to save herself from needing to argue what she did wasn't wrong. While the pair of females across from them had their own conversation, Lexa showed her how to use the tools besides the plate.

"Wait so you're whole family is from a tribe? Like an Indian culture?" Luna choices of word peaked Clarke's interest she looked up at the pair as Anya chuckled and then gestured to Lexa.

"In a way yes, Lexa is part the tribe too, so technically speaking in our tribes term she is my strisis, which means little sister. Our parents raised us both in a unique way based off old traditions," Anya spoke off handly like what she was saying is basic knowledge but both Luna and Clarke exchanged a look of confusion. Lexa laughed suddenly shaking her head at Anya for giving such little information,

"You can't just start in the middle you know, you need to start from the beginning. You're the one who was raised with Trikru tribes traditions from the moment you were born, I was adopted into it. I only know the more modern times, Clarke here has been wanting to know about the Trikru's history for a while now," Lexa pushed her plate to the side taking a sip from her drink, though Clarke wanted to tell her mate to be to finish her food she was more intent on hearing what Anya had to say. Lexa had promised to tell her all about the Trikru's past but she instead that she'd hear it from Anya since she knew more actually facts. Her female has explained that she knows her culture but more towards the present timeline and things like stories that have been passed along. Anya chuckled nodding as toyed with her food for a bit,

"Alright fair trade then, I tell Luna and Clarke about the start of Trikru and you will tell them the modern times that are followed today?" Anya proposed, Lexa nodded her agreement Clarke felt her arm drape over her shoulder, she turned her head to nuzzle Lexa's cheek wishing to purr to show her affection but she had to hold off. She didn't want to get distracted, instead she turned to Anya waiting for her to begin, even Luna seemed to be excited as she had turned to her forgetting about the food that still sat on the table.

"The Trikru tribe began with one family many centuries ago, a father named Edgar, a mother named Alma and their daughter Becca. The family lived within the forest hidden from the eyes of society, for the husband was white and the wife was Indian. In those times such a relationship was considered an act against God and if the towns people knew they would hang the couple including the child. The family had to stay within the forest and very rarely enter the village, the only times they'd enter would be when food was scares."

"Alma taught her daughter how to live off the land, what plants to use for medicine, and most of all how to respect all animals. Edgar taught his daughter how to defend herself from those whom ever wished to hurt her, showing Becca how to mend and use weapons from swords to a bow and arrow. Years went by as Becca was taught to be both a warrior and a kind hearted soul, and as their daughter grew older she became as dangerous as she was beautiful," Anya paused a moment to take a drink as Wendy had come by taking away the empty plates and offering others a box for their food. Clarke had to resist growling out of irritation for the history to be interrupted, though Lexa the sneaky female slipped her hand behind her back and stroke along her spine.

"Not fair," Clarke muttered for only Lexa to hear, she looked to her female and she winked a knowing smirk on those delectable lips. Clarke smiled back, shaking her head she leaned up acting like she was going to kiss her neck, Lexa willingly bared her throat. Clarke grinned exposing her fangs, she got closer and bit the female's scent gland, Lexa let out an intoxicating sound only for her ears to witness. Clarke hadn't broken the skin only grazed the smooth flesh,

"Should I continue? Or should I find you guys a room?" Anya made a show of clearing her throat to get Clarke's attention, Luna chuckled besides her the curly haired female had pulled out her phone tapping at the screen.

"Why would we need a room?" Clarke questioned tilting her head, Anya only laughed though and Luna looked at her giving her a look one would give a pup,

"You're so adorably innocent Clarke, come on Anya finish the story," Luna raised her hand aiming to poke her side but Anya had caught her hand raising a brow challengingly. Clarke could hear Luna's heat pick up and a faint blush colored her cheeks as she looked at Anya. She would have studied them longer if her mate to be hadn't suddenly spoke under her breath,

"Innocent my ass," Lexa whispered, as she squirmed a little in her seat no doubt trying to adjust the sudden arousal. Clarke didn't get the chance mess with her as Anya had continued the tribes history. So Clarke sidled with placing a hand on top of Lexa's thigh stroking up and down. She knew Lexa wouldn't mind, her female even leaned into the touch.

"One day as Becca was hunting in the woods she came across a male couple being threatened by a group of people. The large group had the intention of beating the males to death for being together. But Becca interfered then kept out of sight as she shoot two men straight into their hearts. The group fan from the forest believing that they would be next and it was not until they were long gone that Becca came out from her hiding place. Becca came down to the male couples lending them a hand by healing their wounds and gifting them some of her hunt. The males pleaded to her asking for a place to stay since their families had driven them away. She promised them a home among the trees but they had to give up the life of the village and be willingly to learn to live off the lands. The couple agreed knowing that giving up their possessions is far less of a scarifies then giving their lives.

"After Becca had convened her parents that these males needed a home she continued the cycle of saving people whom were being mistreated or left to die. Becca has saved many lives, women who were accused of being witch's, men who been considered fags just for being soft, and babies born with a disability. Becca had became our first Heda of the tribe she had been the one to teach people how to live as her family had; and any who stepped out of line by killing animals unnecessarily or disrespected Gaia's lands would be banish from the tribe and they would move to a new location. Little did Becca know that she had began a tribe that would last over the centuries for years to come and some of her practices are still followed," Anya smiled as she finished the story then gestured to Lexa that she continue. Lexa nodded while she rearranged to sit more comfortably, Clarke waited patiently but she noticed something about Anya, she seemed to have retreated into her own mind.

Clarke observed the older woman as she sat in silence, thoughts must be spinning inside for Anya to get that far away look in her eyes. The older female's brow furrowed, frown on her lips, the hand she had draped over the back of Luna's chair was balled up, knuckles turned white, Anya is feeling guilty. What could have brought the emotion was a mystery, she seemed just fine as she talked about Trikru's past; yet somewhere in the middle of the tale Anya's tone had lowered, as though she was avoiding letting something slip out. The older woman hadn't even meet anyone's eyes, Clarke wonders what she is keeping to herself, was there more to their history that Anya wasn't saying? Or was it simply Clarke's imagination?

"In modern times now we still follow some of the old ways, most of Trikru protects the animals from hunters and fight to keep the forest still standing. We are a large group scattered all over the world, everyone has a job of some sort that relates to keeping the peace in the forest or jobs that reflect on our old traditions. For example my mama forges weapons, swords, knives, and obviously bows and arrows though most of them are crafted for collection and art now a days. She sales her crafts online you might have heard of her if your into the vintage arts, the website called Indra's crafted weapons and arts," Lexa paused looking to Luna since the female had sat up right away, excitement evident in her features like she just discovered there was a wounded rabbit near by.

"No way my older brother is crazy about that site! Every month he at least buys one of your mom's knives, she does incredible work, so much details," Luna grinned, Clarke noticed that Anya was looking at Luna with what she suspected was admiration and a new found interests.

"She'd be very happy to hear that, she puts a lot of work into each weapon, did you know she does everything by hand? Doesn't use any machines even uses a stone oven that's set up out back in my childhood home," Lexa was getting more excited as she explained how her mother forged the weapons.

"Hey Anya, is that all there is to Becca's timeline? Are there no other story's that continue her?" Clarke looked to Anya curiously the older female was taken a back as though not expecting the question. Anya smiled as she faced her while Lexa and Luna discussed different types of steals that could be mended.

"Sure, there's lots of stories, some are true some are made up but the one I told you are actually facts. How I know this is because Alma kept tract of each time their family went through something; she painted their history on the cave walls that were close to their home, each drawing symbolizing an event. Alma's work covers the enter wall, each one holding a different story; see my dad, he majored in history and his pure focus was on our old culture, he has studied it for years. His main job is to actually teach the young ones in our tribe all about our history and culture," Anya explained a spark let up in her eyes as she spoke of her father, Clarke had to admit she was a little jealous. Clarke wondered if her dad was still around what kind of things he would have taught her about their culture. The most she could remember were the stories on why they honored Gaia, how she was earth, that her body provided the nutrition they needed to live, and that she loved the wolves for being so different from the other animals.

"What about your mom? What does she do?" Clarke asked not messing how Lexa had tensed up besides her or when Anya let out a deep sigh like she has been asked this many times.

"I don't technically have one, I was an IUI baby, my dad never wanted to marry but his always wanted a child. Lexa can tell you what it means some other time, which reminds me Lexa, you didn't finish telling them about our culture in modern times you weapon fanatic," Anya forced a laugh looking away as she sat back in the chair avoiding Clarke's eyes and keeping her attention on Lexa.

Clarke watched Anya a moment longer as Lexa finished up taking to Luna, the older female had set up a wall around herself, she didn't want to talk about this subject one bit. Clarke has been around these humans long enough to know when they were lying or when they were uncomfortable, she seen it in Lexa and even Lincoln, but she hadn't seen it in Anya. Clarke had the urge to comfort Anya like she was a wolf telling her that everything would be alright and she will help her through anything. Clarke hasn't felt that way before for Anya, she has always seemed rather collected with little secrets to hide but that obviously wasn't true.

"I didn't huh? Silly me, alright will, in modern times our tribe has bent the traditions a bit. Over the years we moved into actually house in small towns or out in the ranch areas like me and Anya, but living in the city is frowned upon. Our grandparents have stuck to always living in the forest following after their own parents traditions."

"There is actually one tradition that is strictly followed no matter what, when a couple wants to have a babe they have to be willing to live in the forest during the pregnancy and while the baby grows up to 4 years. When a Trikru member is born the baby must grow up in an environment just as the first commander had," Lexa stopped when Wendy came by again picking up a small black tray that held two rectangular cards, once the human left Lexa continued. Clarke reminder herself to later ask what Lexa's parents did for her since she had been adopted into the family. Did her mother and father simply taught her the old ways? Or had they taken her into Gaia's lands for a short time?

"The children are taught how to treat earth and why one must be grateful for what Gaia provides you. We also train the children to defund themselves against those who become physical, which is done without weapons while they're young. They learn how to hunt or track large pray, and to respect all lives even when hunting. After the 4 years parents sometimes transition back into their houses and live their lives as normal. Though some parents chose to stay in the forest because they have found their own peace. Other then how we are raised and taught, we live our lives like normal for the most part," Lexa paused as Wendy came back placing the black tray from before back onto the table only this time it held the plastic cards and several sheets of paper. Anya grabbed the tray returning one of the plastic cards to Lexa as well as a piece of paper,

"We also hold a festival every full moon, we're there's music and dancing, the elders tell stories, drinking for the adults, and then we all hunt together which usually turn into a competition of who can bring the best or biggest pray," Lexa chuckles, after she scribbled on the paper she stood up then offered her hand to Clarke who happily took a hold of it. Once everyone had gathered their things Anya began to lead everyone outside,

"Why on the full moon? I didn't think that humans actually cared for the moon; I know for certain that wolves like m- I mean they love the full moon because it holds a special meaning to u- them," Clarke stumbled over her words trying not to imply herself when Luna was just ahead of her, Lexa slipped an arm around the back of her waist giving a small squeeze,

"Well the full moon symbolizes for Trikru to reflect on how far we have come along, to show our ancestor how we continue to respect their ways, and for Gaia to see how much we love her," Anya answered as she held the door open for them to pass through,

"Sounds like fun, isn't there a full moon coming up sometime this week?" Luna questioned as she moved besides Anya offering her hand, the older woman was surprised for a moment before she took her hand a small smile at the corner of her lips,

"There is, this Saturday I think," Lexa leaned down her lips pressed against Clarke's temple, she smiled automatically then leaned into Lexa's side soaking up the affection.

"Could we go then? I'd really like to," Clarke asked hesitantly, not sure if she was even allowed to attend since she was not Trikru or human for that matter. Lexa grinned right away nodding,

"Absolutely, maybe next full moon though, my parents don't even know about you yet might be a little too much to meet my parents, then grandparents, and then my tribe. I feel like that could be a lot to handle," Lexa laughed nervously, Clarke didn't know why it set her female uneasy. She didn't see how meeting a lot of humans could be too much. Sure she was uncomfortable being near so many of them like back at the restaurant but to imply that Clarke wasn't strong enough to do it is what bugged her,

"You and I both know I'm tough enough to handle anyone, meeting your family and tribe will be as easy as hunting a rabbit," Clarke scuffed, though she had to block out the one time that she'd ran into a tree when that fucking rabbit out smarted her. Since then Clarke has been able to hunt down small prays far more easily, she even had some luck to catch a type of mouse with a long fuzzy tail. She heard Anya and Luna laugh up ahead of them while Lexa seemed uncertain, her eyes darting side to side and a smiled a bit to tight.

"I diffidently need to be there when your girlfriend meets your parents, because that is going to be quite a show," Anya spun around walking backwards, her smile proving there is more to what she wasn't saying. Clarke narrowed her eyes, what wasn't the older female not telling her?

"Clarke you are honestly so adorable, meeting the parents of the person you like is like a step towards being in a serious relationship," Luna added being far more helpful, Clarke wanted to say she and Lexa were in a serious relationship, that they have shared their history, shared their pain, helped comfort one another, and that soon they may be binding their souls together. But Lexa squeezed her waist to gain her attention when she looked up the human shook her head a little as though reading her mind.

"She doesn't need to know, she'll only ask more questions, believe me, she isn't one to hold her tongue," Lexa leaned down, Clarke instinctively tilted her head back humming sweetly as her female kissed her. Clarke growled in the back of her throat not being able to rest parting her lips to trace Lexa's bottom lip with her tongue. Lexa moaned before she hungrily pushed forward nipping Clarke's lip then slipped her tongue into her mouth. Clarke groaned softly the feeling of Lexa's tongue gliding against hers sent such shiver down to her lower torso. Lexa pulled back and Clarke growled in protest but allowed her female to move away. Lexa's small panting made Clarke want to pull her down for another kiss yet there had to be any aggravating horn honking, she remembered the sound to be from Anya's car.

"Why does she always get in the way?" Clarke grumbled while Lexa took her hand chuckling as she pulled to make her walk.

"Because that's what a friend does, they like to be annoying, besides we do have another place to visit for our date night," Lexa at least gave her another kiss before they made it to the car. Anya was lucky to have Lexa defend her or Clarke would have planed a way to get back at her, well maybe later she could.

The food was delicious for being pasta and only a little meat, Clarke hadn't expected to like the food but the amount of flavors that she tasted was extremely good. As tasty as the food had been Clarke still felt hungry the meat they provide on the plate was nothing but a snack maybe even less. She'd have to hunt something down later once they got back home. Though hunting will have to wait tell much later because now their date event was going to a place called a Gladiator.

They arrived to the club not too long ago and entered with no issues, but when walking deeper to the dimly light place was interesting. They barely walked into the the building before Clarke gaged on the scents that assaulted her nose. She could smell perfumes that ruined once natural scent, sweat from compressed bodies, and most of all the overbearing tang from arousal. She had to focus her scent pallet on Lexa's and the other two girls to keep from smelling everyone else. The music that is playing so loud it practically bounces off the walls making the room fell like it was jolting, it was too much. Clarke is not enjoying this, she stopped in her tracks all together as the other two women went on but held Lexa back. Her mate to be looked back at her confused, Clarke whimpers to show her discomfort but the way she continued to stare she didn't think she could hear.

"I don't know if I want to be in here!" Clarke shouted her sudden loud volume caused a few humans to halt and stare at them, one quick glare in their direction and they quickly continued on their way. Lexa gently tugs on Clarke's hand to get her attention, she is holding something out, in her palm there are two small pink cone shapes. Clarke looked at them curiously before glancing at Lexa completely lost. Why is Lexa giving her sweets?

"I thought it could be a problem with the noise and all, so I grabbed you some ear plugs, they should help," Lexa explained, she let go of Clarke's hand and grabbed the pink things and began squeezing them until they shrunk. Clarke watched as she did this making no protest as Lexa stepped closer pushing her hair back. She stayed still as Lexa pushed the thing into her ear, the feeling was abnormal and some how her hearing was diluted. Lexa did the same thing to her other ear and then she pulled out another pair but these ones she put into her own. "My ears start to hurt too with the music being so loud. I might not be able to hear you that well but I'm sure you can hear me?" She asked as the finally ear piece was pushed into place,

"I can hear you just fine, if you can't hear me I can do this," Clarke grinned reaching out with her mind to link them together, Lexa's eyes widen a little as the familiar tickle touched her forehead.

"I didn't know you could still do that when you're like this," Lexa pulled her hand so they may venture deeper into the club, the lights growing darker and music getting louder. Thankfully the ear plugs actually helped to smother the sounds, it was still slightly loud but Clarke imagined this may be normal human hearing.

"Cool right? Where did Anya and Luna go?" Clarke asked as she glanced around the place, first checking for any signs of danger, other then a few humans clumsy stumbling into one another, it was harmless. There is the added bounce that these humans were distracted with own activities that they didn't gawk at Clarke like before. The humans paid her no mind and she could still hear them but it was far easier to isolate their nonsense conversations.

After disclosing that no threats were near by Clarke took in her surroundings The right side of the building area were more then a dozen humans dancing with one another, some in groups or in pairs. The floor the humans stepped about is lighting up with soft colors, flashing a different hue every so often. On the left were rows of tall tables with chairs to match its height, a few humans occupied the area and many of which were tangled with their mates. Towards the back wall was a small stage were several humans seemed to be serving drinks. Clarke doubted there was any water, it smelled off, it may be alcohol if she remembered correctly. She hasn't touched the stuff before but it wasn't a stranger, she has smelled it numerous times on a certain old owner that she refuses to think about.

"They said they wanted to grab our drinks to help sooth the jitters," Lexa spoke loudly though Clarke was able to hear her just fine, she choice not to embarrass her by pointing that fact out.

"Does it taste good? Smells kind of gross," Clarke questioned as she followed Lexa while she guided them towards the crowd of humans that danced.

"If you know what you like, it can be very good. My guess is you'll like the fruity drinks more then the hard stuff, I don't you'd like vodka," Lexa shouted moving through the crowd, some of the humans were kind enough to part allowing them to pass. But others were rude about not moving at all, Lexa would simply move around them but Clarke wouldn't allow such behavior. Another human, a female, doesn't budge and even turned her back to ignore them, Lexa walked on without a care but Clarke with one quick flick of her wrist shoved the female out of the way. The human scrambled forward nearly falling onto the floor until some male caught her. Clarke smirked when the female looked over to see who shoved her but the fool had not a clue who had done it.

Thankfully Lexa hadn't noticed what she done other whys her love would have lectured her to be nice. Clarke will always love Lexa but being kind to humans whom were rude or insulting was simple not right. Lexa found a spot on the dance floor that she liked then spun around and wrapped her arms around her waist. Clarke's heart flutters as Lexa pressed the front of her body against her, breast pushed into her, hips grinding against her pelvis, a hand slipping down to grip at Clarke's hips and the other landing on her lower back, all while Lexa moved them to the beat of the music. She felt her cheeks heat up at how bold Lexa is being, there is not an ounce of shame in the way Lexa molded into her and she felt her body beginning to react to her female's courageous touch. Not wanting her blush to show she quickly moved forward hiding her face into the side of Lexa's neck.

She forgot all about her surroundings with the small sound that slipped out of Lexa's throat, the little vibration hit against her lips made her purr. Clarke pulled on Lexa tightly allowing her lips to drag down her female's jugular, the scent gland drenched in Lexa's natural smell. She could hear Lexa mutter something as they continued to sway to the music another voice answering but Clarke wasn't interested in the new comer. Instead Clarke opened her jaws using her fangs to grip the soft flesh, right away she felt Lexa's heart rate quickened, the beat tingled against fangs causing her mouth to water. She couldn't help but grip harder, her wolf wanting to bite down to see if Lexa's blood tasted like honey and strawberries as her scent gave off, but her human was smarter that she could just take a small lick, which she did and received a wondrous reaction. Lexa let out a muffled moan one that Clarke wanted to hear continuously, instead of listening to the tap on her shoulder she leaned up into Lexa to drag her fangs up the sensitive skin. Lexa gasped shivering in her arms the sweet smell of arousal tickled Clarke's nose, her female is wet, body ready to be intimate. Another tap came at her shoulder and this time Lexa gripped her hips pushing her back, Clarke growled for being forced away but seeing Lexa disheveled state made her think twice.

"I'll be right back, need to use the bathroom," Lexa kisses her lips quickly before dismissing herself hurriedly then quickly walked away, not too long after Anya ran after. A soft giggle reminders Clarke she wasn't alone, she looked back to find Luna,

a grin at her lips and in each of her hands she held a glass cups filled with a pink liquid.

"You sure know how to work them up don't you? You want to take a break for a bit?" Luna yelled over the music gesturing to the tables lining the walls, not as many humans were around there anymore so it would be comfortable. Clarke looked back towards where Lexa ran off, the trail of her aroused scent still lingers, she wants to chase after her female.

Her wolf was pushing out stretching her claws wanting to grip her mate to be, to pounce on her and lay her on the softest surface. Clarke felt the unbearable urge to have Lexa beneath her to taste every single part of her body, to have her tongue buried into Lexa's wet mound. With a hurried nodded Clarke followed Luna off the dance floor, she did not want to turn away from Lexa, she wanted to chase her like she was an omega. Her wolf grew angry inside, she felt the urge to change form, fur poking through her pours threatening to take control. Clarke had to nip at her lip to tie down her wolf and cursing her animal mind for her desires. The alpha in her desires to experience sex as well as wanting to breed. Clarke clawed at the palm of her hands when she felt her lower torso grow hot at the mere idea of filling Lexa with her offsprings. Thanks to Luna placing the cup filled with alcohol in front of her she quickly grabbed it to distract herself.

Clarke brought the drink to her lips taking small sips allowing the bitter liquid to coat her tongue and hopefully to cool the rising heat in her body. She was actually grateful for the distraction even if what she drank wasn't very tasty. Clarke needed to keep control of herself, she couldn't allow her wolf to be tampering with her mind, as much as she loved Lexa she couldn't handle her the rough way her wolf was craving. If they did have sex tonight Clarke needs to remember to be careful, Lexa was fragile, she could very well hurt her female which is obviously not something she wanted. Clarke is going to have to suck up the embarrassment of telling Lexa about what will happen after losing her female virginity. No matter which form she took on her tail will surely appear puffing up like a cloud, she was not looking forward to having to explain that reaction too.

"What's your date got that I don't?"

A male's voice reached her ears breaking Clarke away from her mind, she looked over to Luna letting out a defensive growl. There were two males on either side of them, one male was lanky, skin so tight one could see his bones moving and he was currently bothering Luna. The male was beyond being in her personal space and the human looked like she wanted to smack him. The other male was in Clarke's personal space far too close and no less uglier then the first human. This one stunk of rotten milk, his pupils blown wide and unfocused, mouth set in grin showing yellowed teeth. She felt the hair at the back of her neck rising as the boy smiled giving her a wink.

"Oye beautiful, bout time ya notice me," the male sputtered out leaning further into Clarke's face, she raised her lips in a sneer, anger causing her to forget to hide her wolf.

"Get the hell away from me," Clarke snarled out viscously taking pleasure in seeing the male's eyes widen and flinching back.

"Yeah what she said little boy, we're not interested. We are waiting for our dates, so fuck off already," Luna added a good bit of bite in her tone that made Clarke's respect for her rise. She stepped closer to Luna when the lanky man didn't move but stepped closer. At least the friend to the bones boy seemed to get the message, the male was trying to get his friend to follow him casting weary glances Clarke's way.

"Ya got a nasty mouth on you girl, but I know a way to get ya to shut up," the male smiled then gripped at his own privates to prove a point. Clarke felt such a rage, in one quick switch she pushed Luna behind her then shoved herself between the male and her new friend. The boy seemed completely spooked before his grin grew wider, he reached out gripping her shoulder, Clarke cringed at having the male touch her, "well damn! Ya way more sexy then that one, how bout I give you a taste of what I got girl?" Clarke was so ready to strike him across his face and use her claws to really make him pay but before she could a familiar scent came close.

"How about I give you something else to taste fuck boy," Lexa spoke harshly the lanky boy turned only half way before her mate to be did something rather shocking. Lexa brought up a balled hand and hit the male across his lower jaw and the lanky boy flew to the floor. The male cried out at the sudden pain, hand reaching up to cradle his now redden cheek.

"What the fu-"

The male didn't get to finish his sentence as Anya stepped besides Lexa, who had then placed her boot over the male's privates. Clarke could see she had definitely add pressure as his face went a little pale and he let out a whimper something the humans probably couldn't hear.

"If I ever see you near this women again or harassing anyone else like you just have," Anya added dangerously low and pushed forward making the male whine, fear forcing him to stay put rather then move away, "you won't have anything here to be doing shit,"

"Now get the hell out of here, I doubt you'll ever be finding any luck here or that security is going to believe your damn ass got kicked by a woman," Lexa grabbed Anya's arm pushing her back a bit so she was off the male, apparently they didn't need more convincing as the friend had hurried away abandoning his comrade. The lanky boy scrambled to his feet holding his wounded pride and scampered off like a dog with his tail between his legs.

"Tell me you're just as turned on as I am right now," Luna still stood behind Clarke having whispered in her ear, she gulped but wasn't able to lie, she nodded. Watching Lexa dominant the male like that really made her body tingle with a very delightful warmth.

Luna may hold back if she'd like but she is going to get what her body craved from her beloved. Once Lexa turned back around after making sure the males left the building, she wrapped her arms around her neck. Lexa looked surprised for a second before Clarke pulled her down and pressed her lips roughly against hers, wanting desperately to have Lexa return the fevered kiss. Which of course Lexa did, even holding onto her and lifting Clarke up; her lips felt like fire as she pushed her sensitive lips into Lexa's. Clarke partes her lip to invade Lexa's mouth with her tongue like her female has done countless times to her, being able to swirl and twist her tongue inside of Lexa's mouth made her lower torso burn up. She feels the throbbing ache between legs, the skin prickles like an itch that need to be scratched, but in this instant she craves to have Lexa's fingers buried deep inside of her. No matter how much Clarke embraced her mate to be, the pressure and heat didn't feel enough, Clarke needed more.

"Never been a shy one huh?" Anya laughed off to the side that Clarke choice to ignore as she pulled away only because she hadn't caught her breath. Lexa looked back at her, dazed as she tried to get control of her own breathing. Clarke flashed her fangs knowing how much her mate to be enjoyed the sight, her female shivers in their embrace, Clarke moves closer standing on her toes to speak into Lexa's ear,

"I want to dance for you my love," she gripped Lexa's hips passively, allowing her fingers to sneak into the line of the pants that she wore. Clarke could hear the human swallow hard, she leaned further forward letting a deep growl pass her lips as she nipped the bottom of her ear. Lexa groaned yanking Clarke forward her own hand having slipped down to bare thighs. She wanted to pull that hand up closer to the aggravating heat and slick that has been building up between Clarke's legs.

"I'd love to see that babe," Lexa held onto Clarke even as she pulled away the emerald eyed beauty let out a small huff in protest. Clarke pulled Lexa's hand up resting her lips against the wrist she purrs softly luring the human to follow after. Lexa was all to willing to chase after Clarke as she remembered the area where less humans crowded on the light up dance floor.

Clarke purposely let off an air of authority that the humans were not allowed to interfere with them and they were wise enough to listen to the silent threat that weaved through them. The humans parted allowing Clarke and her female to pass through with no troubles, she reached the exact spot she wanted, satisfied she spun around pulling Lexa close. Clarke could smell Lexa's growing arousal it sent her wolf in a frenzy of desire, the animal part of her mind screamed out to take what was hers, to dominate yet worship her Lexa.

The wolf in her had a little more control then Clarke would have liked, her mind feeling fuzzy yet pleasantly warm. A sweep of her tongue over her fangs there was the lingering taste of bitter sweet, the alcohol. It must be messing with her control, not completely but she certainly wasn't going to have anymore of the liquid. Yet the hungry look that crossed over Lexa's features as she danced with her mate to be made it hard to want to control her body. Those piercing jaded eyes locked on her every movement, Clarke felt the fever in her gaze as she stroked up her own waist and into her hair. Clarke moved back only a bit so that she may dance freely, she didn't have her tail or extra paws but still she knew how to dance.

The music was beyond different then she been trained to move to but it was an easy fix once she found the beat to the music. Once she found it, she willingly obeyed the way her wolf wanted to guide, she swayed her hips, rocking side to side in a slow circle. Clarke could feel how Lexa is completely focused on her movement the attention fueled her to keep dancing. She listened to her wolf as it helped to lure her mate to be to follow after her even as she moved backwards. The sounds of the club muted, there were no humans shouting over the music, no one coming near them, creating the illusion of being alone, no scents assaults her nose only Lexa's, her aroma flowing into Clarke feeling as if she is mending with her love. Clarke could block out everyone and everything nothing else existed only her and Lexa.

A firm grip at her waist caused Clarke to open her eyes, not even realizing she had closed them and was meet with a pleasant surprise, Lexa was panting. The female was losing control of her own body, it was exactly what Clarke craved, she leaned in close nipping the air in front of Lexa's face. A bold move in a wolf's custom, Clarke had allowed her alpha instincts to take over it was a show of dominance, a teasing way to say " I can control you or will you punish me" it was a dark desire of Clarke's to have Lexa challenge her. If she was able to think clearer she'd understand that she craved the customs of a wolf pursing a mate but those forms weren't entirely familiar. But her wolf apparently knew better then her human mind, her wolf coming up with ideas in how she can drive Lexa wild, which caused Clarke to break from her fuzzy state and dark thoughts.

Clarke was going to apologize for her actions but then Lexa answered the challenge, her female gripped firmly at the hair behind her neck and titled her head back. Clarke whimpered but not in pain, no, it was out of pure joy as Lexa acted like a beta wolf leaning down and bitting at Clarke's neck. She moaned out making sure to purr to show her excitement for being dominated, the sound meant to reassure her female seemed to spear her on. Clarke felt Lexa's teeth bit a little harder leaving a small bruise, she felt Lexa's lips clamp down as well, sucking at her neck. Clarke purred louder before she could stoped herself, Lexa's teeth sunk further but this time Clarke felt one of her teeth break the skin. She couldn't allow Lexa to actually permanently mark her, not yet at least, she had to growl out which of course Lexa would feel thanks to where her lips were pressed. Lexa froze up in her arms like she just came back to reality and Clarke smelled something new, it was salty and acidic, fear.

"I'm sorry! Oh god, Clarke I'm so so s-" Lexa flung back in horror over what she done but Clarke wasn't going to allow her to think she done something wrong. Clarke gripped Lexa's hand keeping it where it is tangled in her locks of hair, then pulling Lexa closer she pulled Lexa's other hand over her heart.

"Don't you dare apologize, I wanted it Lexa, you didn't do anything wrong," Clarke reassured Lexa calming her mate to be as the female's wide eyes lost their tension and she let out a deep breath. Lexa nodded but not until she was completely relaxed did Clarke release her hands so she may do what she likes. Though of course Clarke should have expected that the female would check the bite mark she surely left behind. Lexa strokes the mark a bit with her fingers lightly tracing it, she leaned into the touch hoping to convey she wasn't upset.

"Looks like a little bruising but should heal with no problem in a few days, the mark will go away," Lexa sighed seeming more relaxed, thankfully she wrapped her arms around Clarke's waist and pulled her forward. She smiled at her mate to be leaning up she kissing Lexa's nose making the human cross eyed for a moment.

"I rather have a permit mark, but of course that's too soon maybe in few more moons you can really leave a mark on me," Clarke peaked Lexa's lips a few times then began to sway side to side craving to continue dancing with Lexa. Her female had no issues with dancing again as she had smiled, sighing while Lexa guided Clarke how to move to the new song. She didn't really care for what music played, merely content to be near her love. Clarke sighed as she rested her head over Lexa's heart listening to each thump, a sound far more beautiful then the music that surrounded them.

Clarke will remember the traditions that come with becoming soul mates or maybe they could simply exchange bites to bind. Even if that were to take a few moons or years Clarke will wait; there was no human or wolf that she wanted to claim her, only Lexa may own her and vs versa. For now Clarke will play by Lexa's traditions, following whatever ways need be to show that they are meant to be together. Clarke has to admit though she didn't want to wait to have sex with her love, she desired Lexa in a sexually way tremendously.

She has tried many ways to get her female to have sex with her but every time they have come close, Lexa would squirm her way out of it. Clarke has worn revealing clothes, has pressed her body against Lexa, shared her pathetic hunts of fruit, and even flirted. She wants to feel that same passion that just happened, to repeat inside the female's bedroom and by the way Lexa kept eyeing the mark on her throat licking her lips unconsciously, it may not be to hard to convince her.

Lexa POV

"You bit her," Anya repeated for the tenth time when they got back home and Luna dragged Clarke inside to help her wash away the make up. Clarke hadn't been willing to go after with the other woman but with a quick kiss and a promise to cuddle later on she had gladly skipped away. Lexa needed a few minutes to herself to talk with her best friend, she was a little shaken up over what happened at the club.

"Yes! I fucking bit her neck and left a bruise. Anya I don't know what the hell happened to me to want to do that," Lexa shook her head vigorously putting a hand over her mouth remembering the moment all to well. How Clarke danced so provocatively, hands caressing her own body in the places Lexa wanted her hands to be, the way her hips swayed drawing her attention, when she had arched her back and her breast had strained against the low cut dress, it drove Lexa crazy. She literally could feel her lungs expanding and sucking up air like she was out of breath or in a deep trance.

Lexa felt something inside of her she never had before, it was like something else took a hold of her and made her move. Sure Lexa was turned on she wasn't going to deny that, she want to sleep with Clarke so desperately but what she did back at the club scared her. Lexa was like a new person having grabbed Clarke forcing her to tilt her head back; the only thing that crossed her mind was to bite at the skin and then Clarke purred and Lexa bit down harder. It wasn't until the wolf growled at her that she realized what she had done, it wasn't exactly the action that concerns her, it was the fact that she enjoyed biting Clarke that horrified her. Lexa couldn't help but think of how screwed up it was for her to be so rough with Clarke, a wolf who has been abused, that's not what she deserves.

"Did she like it?" Anya broke Lexa out of her troubled thoughts she looked over at her friend while she tried to remember what happened afterwords. That feeling of something else controlling her had messed with her memory a little, it took a moment to figure out Clarke's reaction. Lexa remembered how the wolf had purred clutching on to her and moaning as she sucked at her skin; purring louder when Lexa dug her teeth deeper, her girlfriend shivered. Clarke actually enjoyed it, she said so herself, Lexa nodded heat rising to her cheeks then all over her face as she blushed.

"Yeah, she really liked it, honestly so did I," Lexa muttered, pressing a hand to her mouth a little shaken up, even though the new feeling had freaked her out, she was actually craving to bite Clarke again. Lexa glanced at the house, the light in the living room was on and it seems like the pair of women intended to stay inside.

"If she didn't mind it and you actually enjoyed biting her, what's the problem?" Anya questioned before locking up her car, she reached back for a moment to grab the bag that held Luna's leftovers from the restaurant. Anya headed towards their house as Lexa followed after keeping a few steps behind.

"It's just that, I've slept with a few other woman and yeah they been exciting and had their own rushes, it was fun. But with Clarke it's like this whole new thing, I get so turned on that the feeling is abnormal like something else inside of me wants her too and not just sexually," Lexa paused as they reached the front door neither of them had made a move to twist the doorknob. Anya turned to her and waits for her to continue, while Lexa gathered her thoughts,

"No matter how close I am to her, no matter how much time we spend together, it's never enough. I want to be with Clarke as if my life depended on it, that's how hard I've fallen for her, that's insane right?" Lexa asked bewildered, she is sure she isn't making an sense.

Lexa felt like she just described two different things, one was wanting to have sex with Clarke and the other was wanting to treasure her. It feels like her head is going to explode with having two different things swirling in her head; Lexa felt like she was having an argument with an invisible person over what she wanted to do with Clarke. Lexa looked to the flour clutching at her head as it began to throb with a familiar headache she's had them before but only at rare times.

"Stop questioning this Lexa," Anya's firm voice and knock to the forehead helped grounded Lexa, as she focused back on her best friend and not the mess inside of her head. She let her arms drop back to her sides as she looked at Anya, "You're blowing this thing with Clarke way out of the waters, when it's literally very simple," Anya leaned over pressing her forehead against Lexa's and rests a hand at the back of her neck; a little thing Anya did often when Lexa began to stress out, "You're in love Lexa, that's it, there is no reason for you be thinking of this so hard. Stop going inside your mind to fight what you feel, let things play out; so you want to have sex with her just do it or you want to marry her then go for it. Sen klir Heda, sen in yu laif (Let go commander, listen to your feelings),"

"You haven't called me Heda in years, last time was when I was the leader of the animal shelter volunteers," Lexa laughed soaking up this peaceful moment as Anya knew how to help her. The headache that had begun to build up dulled down as Anya kept her forehead pressed against her own, Lexa took a few deep breaths to calm down. Anya is right.

" yu sou radon, ai beda nou din disha (you're right sister, I shouldn't question this) but still it is crazy how much I've fallen for this half woman, half wolf," Lexa whispered softly as she pulled back feeling more like herself instead of on the edge of an overwhelming headache. Yet Lexa, couldn't shake off that invisible figure that had in a way pushed her to bite her girlfriend.

"Your mama will be thrilled, should probably let you know Luna has posted those pictures of you and Clarke on Facebook. She has tagged you and your parents are going to find out about your relationship. I only found out after Luna showed be how many likes the pictures got," Anya spoke quickly as she opened the door and stepped inside before Lexa could freaking blink.

Lexa had to pause outside of the door way to process what Anya just said. Her best friend basically told her that her parents will find out about her relationship though the computer, fucking hell. Lexa had all the intention of telling her parents about Clarke but she was going to do it with like a quick home visit after a half day at work. She wanted to tell them in person not through a third source, but she couldn't exactly get mad at Luna because it was normal thing to do. Plus Lexa said she and Clarke have been together for a few weeks so the woman must have thought they were out to everyone. Lexa sighed shacking her head, there wasn't a doubt in her mind that her mama or papa were going to call her the moment they saw the picture, she was going to get such an ear full. She headed on inside hearing Clarke arguing with Luna but in like a heated conversation more like Clarke trying to convince Luna she didn't need a phone.

"Seriously? How do you keep in touch with like your family or friends?" Luna laughed as she looked at the phone tapping at the screen. Lexa cringed at the sudden up bring of such a touchy subject, she was going to jump in and save Clarke from answering but then she spoke up,

"Lexa is my mate to be, Anya, and Lincoln are my family and you are my friend that's all I need. I don't need to have this flashy mind controlling thing to keep in touch with people I like," Clarke shrugged casual, from the looks of it she hadn't been upset at all with Luna bringing up the sensitive topic. Lexa made sure to grab her attention over Luna's shoulder waving her hands to get Clarke to look at her, it had worked. The blonde looking up titling her head curiously, Lexa held up her hand showing 5 fingers to see what comfort level Clarke was in. She smiled then shows Lexa a quick 1 before Luna looked up from her phone,

"You consider me a friend?" Luna's tone was completely hopeful this poor woman wear her heart on the sleeve, Anya better treat her right. Clarke nodded, Lexa could see that the blonde was trying to figure out why Luna questioned her and then Luna leaned forward and hugged Clarke. Her girlfriend's eyes went as wide as an owls when Luna grabbed a hold of her. "Ah! I'm so happy to be your friend! You ought to come back and work at the sanctuary, pretty sure you could easily secure a job," Luna let go of Clarke as quickly as she had hugged her, the wolf barely registered that Luna had touched her, it made Lexa want to laugh at her expression.

"Oh I'm sure Clarke would be a hit with the wolves. Hey Luna, you want a tutor of my part of the house? Or would you like to head home?" Anya grinned when Clarke shot her a warning glare, Lexa let a small laugh escape her since there was no harm in the older woman messing around. Lexa had to give credit to Anya for being able to tease Clarke but also hint to Luna she that wanted to spend more time together. Lexa suddenly felt someone pawing at her pants, looking down she saw Jelly, her eyes were wide and pleading, she let out a loud meow then pawed at her pants again, her bowl must be empty,

"Oh I'll definitely want a tutor of everything you have to offer, Anya," Luna turned back to look at the older woman sending her a wink, Lexa got the rare pleasures of seeing her best friends cheek turn red. Anya only nodded pretending to cough in her hand to try to hide the blush that rose to her face. Luna jumped off the couch turning to Clarke first bending over she whispered something in her ear. Lexa wonders what the tattooed woman has said to her girlfriend because now even her cheeks were turning red. Clarke let out a familiar barking laugh which made her turn redder when Luna pulled back to ask if she was ok.

"I umm had something stuck in my throat," Clarke waved off laughing normally as Luna stood back up then offered the blonde her hand to pull her up. Lexa could see the small bit of offense she felt for the offer, probably thought it was an insult to say she was weak but Clarke took Luna's hand all the same. "Well then Luna, it was nice hanging out with you, hope to see you around again," Clarke smiled then walked over to Lexa, she held her hand out to the wolf and she took a hold of it. Luna's smiles back at Clarke wiggling her eyebrows suggestively,

"I definitely hope to see you around too, should really consider working at the sanctuary again, it be so much fun having you around," Luna winked then wondered right into Anya's home, though the older woman hadn't left just yet she looks to Lexa raising a brow like she knew what the pair were talking about. Lexa shakes her head shrugging because she had not a clue of what they were talking about and by the way Clarke would not meet her eyes, she's guessing her love won't be telling her either.

"Would you like to head over to our room baby?" Lexa asked tugging on her hand though it wasn't like Clarke needed guidance, the blonde knew this house just as well as her. Clarke smiled ready to answer but a very angry loud meow came at their feet. They looked down to see Jelly flicking her tail clearly pissed off, she narrows her eyes at Lexa accusingly. The kitten was right to do so, because she might of have forgotten for a moment that Jelly needed food.

"How about you feed the fur ball first, while I change out of these clothes?" Clarke leaned down plucking the kitten up, Jelly thankfully didn't try to claw Clarke for suddenly grabbing her. The kitten sat on Clarke's arms reaching up she pawed at the wolf's nose and made the most pathetic meow Lexa had ever heard before looking over at her. Lexa couldn't believe it, the kitten was ratting her out, Clarke had figured that out to, she jokingly glares at Lexa lifting a brow in good humor,

"Little shit, who do you think buys your damn expensive blue wilderness cat food and not that cheap meow mix that makes you sick," Lexa grumbled grabbing the kitten from Clarke's arms, she headed over to the kitchen to feed the ungrateful animal,

"I'll be in your room Lexa, take your time, my darling," Clarke called out as she went down the hall and Lexa busied herself with getting the kittens food from above the cupboard.

"Huh darling? That's a new one," Lexa mumbled, she put Jelly on the floor while she measured out her food the kitten now deciding to be much sweeter. Jelly rubbed against her legs meowing a few times until Lexa put her food in the bowl and the kitten flung away and stuffed her face.

Lexa moved over to the sink to fill up a cup with some water to quench her thirst. She hasn't felt her phone go off yet but she was sure it will light up once her parents saw the picture of her and Clarke. She wondered if her parents will like Clarke, they may find her a little mouthy since she wasn't one to hold her tongue and she often did things that weren't normal; like how her 4 fangs always showed, or when she ate some tasty meat all of her teeth grew sharp, or when she gets excited she'll yelp like a puppy, and sometimes Clarke will stare at people so intensely it made people uncomfortable. Maybe her parents will only focus on how pretty and outgoing she is vs focusing on her actions. Lexa can only hope.

She finished her drink then headed off to the room being sure to shut off the lights and making sure the door was locked. Once she reached the room she hadn't put much thought to why the door was closed. Lexa opened the door and froze, Clarke was sitting on the edge of the bed without her dress on. The blonde was wearing a see through black bra covered in lace the fabric hugging her breast snuggle and showing perky pink nipples. Lexa shamelessly traced over Clarke's curved figure finding a matching thong, the material so thin they looked like they could tear. Clarke was pushing her breast forward as she reached behind her back like she was trying to unbuckle the bra but was struggling, the way her body was positioned her legs were parted wide and leaving little to the imagination. Lexa gulped, her throat suddenly felt like she had ate a mouth full of sand and chased it down with boiling water.

"Lexa please help me, I can't get this thing and Luna didn't show me how to take it off," Clarke whined before she huffed giving up and dropping her arms to either side of her hips to push off the bed and stand up. Lexa swirled her tongue around trying to gather any amount of moisture to appease the dryness in her mouth. Clarke spun around exposing her back side gathering her hair in one swift swipe displaying more skin, Lexa groaned seeing how the thong rested on her hips. Clarke peeks back at Lexa curiously lifting a brow but a smirk graced those lips, "problem beautiful?"

"N-no not at all, undoing bras can be tricky plus this the first you're actually wearing one," Lexa spoke quickly trying to distract herself as she moved forward kicking the door shut, Clarke laughed gently before facing forward. Lexa reached out hand shaking as her fingers slid against the blonde's skin towards the bra's clasps.

Lexa easily unclasped the fabric and deciding to be bold she stepped closer to push the straps off her shoulders, allowing her hands to linger on the cool flesh as they glided down Clarke's arms. Lexa could hear Clarke's breath shutter when she pressed into her, feeling the she-wolf lean back. Lexa licked at her lips letting her arms snake around the blonde's front gripping her hips firmly she pushed harder into the warm body in front of her. Clarke let out that purr/growling sound Lexa has only heard a handful of times, her heart hammered away as she strokes Clarke's stomach slowly then moves up. Clarke pushed into Lexa's hands, seeking out a pleasure that she knew how to satisfy, but Lexa wants to tease her further. Lexa leaned down to Clarke's shoulder, pressing her lips to the skin feeling her love tremble as she dragged her mouth across to the curve of her neck. Lexa moved her hands further north cupping Clarke's breast, her palms resting against stiff nipples, Lexa licked up the side of her neck and the blonde lost her footing but she helped her to keep standing.

Xxxx pause of NSFW xxxxxxx

Against Lexa's tongue she felt the rough area of Clarke's neck were the old scar circled around the flesh. Lexa felt a pang of guilt, pulling back a bit she rests her hands over Clarke's breast; she moved down feeling the rough areas of where she'd been abused. The small dent bellow her right breast carved right between the ribs, a long gash along her waist, the multiple burn marks on her lower hips, Lexa felt guilty; as though she was taking advantage of the wolf, she stepped back immediately, releasing Clarke from her hold.

"Hey you want to watch a movie? There's a this really funny one I know you'll like, it's called Meet Dave," Lexa aimed to go to the closest but barely took a step as her wrist is suddenly grabbed and was yanked back. She landed on the bed roughly and before she could even blink Clarke had mounted her hips, Lexa could feel the heat of her skin though her own clothes. Lexa's heart pulsing quickly as a cheetah hunts down his pray and the woman responsible able for it is leaning over her, hands clawing at the covers on either sides of Lexa's head.

"Stop doing that," Clarke growled out showing a row of sharp teeth, not at all like her normal fangs. Lexa shivered without meaning to, that stupid desire to be bitten by those fangs was like a voice screaming in her head and it was advising her to tilt her head back. Lexa forced her eyes to stay on the wolf's face even when she seemed very irritated,

"Stop what?" Lexa asked hesitantly grateful to see Clarke's eye color hadn't changed, she had that small streak of yellow but it hadn't changed either. Clarke opened her mouth and growled out deeply, instead of being afraid Lexa noticed that the blonde still had missing back teeth just like her wolf form. She wondered for a moment if those missing teeth bothered Clarke, then thought if a dentist could maybe fill the empty spaces with false ones.

"Treating me like I am going to break, it happens every single time you touch me," Clarke snapped her teeth once, though she must have noticed what she was doing as the rows of sharp teeth shrunk to only the four. Clarke moved back sitting on Lexa's hips the wolf let out a whine as she stared down at her. "I know what sex is Lexa, what to expect and I know you want it too. I can smell it on you, how wet you get when we kiss or when our bodies rub together," Clarke grinds her hips down on Lexa making her gasp, instantly she gripped the blonde's waist to pull her closer. "Why do you treat me like I will shatter under your hands? Why do you stop touching me and run away?"

"It's not like I don't want to babe, I just thought maybe you wanted to relax instead after being out in the city and everything," Lexa moved her hands down from Clarke's hips to gently stroke her thighs trying to do anything from looking down at her exposed upper torso. Clarke narrowed her eyes like she knew Lexa wasn't saying everything, the blonde reached down pushing her shirt up exposing her stomach and bra. Clarke gingerly dragged a hand up her stomach claws extended and lightly scratched at her skin until they reached the middle of bra.

"That's not it, is it? There's something more you're not telling me, don't lie me Lexa," Clarke hooked a finger between the thin fabric of her bra that held the piece together. Lexa wanted to reach up and move her hand but the extended claws kept her from trying to. She really didn't want Clarke to tear off the bra, this was one of her favorites and honestly a more expensive brand.

"Nothing gets past you huh? My beautiful alpha," Lexa lowered her voice distracting the wolf as she gently stroked up her girlfriend's waist. Clarke looked surprised for a moment then grinned but her claws moved down to the fabric that would surely reap if she got any closer.

"Don't try to change the subject my human. Answer me, why don't you want to have sex with me?" Clarke demanded her claws twitches lower and Lexa quickly reached up grabbing her wrist stopping her from moving yet feeling the rough area from where she held the blonde didn't help the situation.

"Alright, I'll tell you...I don't have anything against your scars but when I touch them, I'm reminded of your past. I remember who gave them to you and it makes me feel guilty to touch you, like I'm taking advantage of your innocence," Lexa finally admitted she waited as Clarke proceed what she said watching how her claws retracted and felt the blonde move up to sit on her stomach. Lexa looked up to meet her eyes instead of seeing annoyance Clarke's expression was soft and understanding. Clarke tugged on her hand asking silently for Lexa to let go, which she did, though the blonde then gripped her hand and guided it towards her ribs placing it over a thick line on her skin. Lexa knew from the blonde that this scar came from a small knife from when Clarke had tried to defend herself.

"Did you do this to me? Did you hold the knife?" Clarke asked softly letting out a gentle purr, Lexa snapped her head up to look at Clarke shaking her head vigorously,

"No! I'd never do that to you," Lexa tried to sit up to comfort her but Clarke pushed her down with her free hand then guided Lexa's hand towards the middle of her stomach where a number of small V shaped scars came from when Clarke had messed up on a trick.

"Did you do these?" Clarke asked again, Lexa shook her head immediately the blonde repeated the process a few times, Lexa wasn't sure what she was trying to prove. Yet for some reason she felt more at ease and then Clarke grabbed her other hand and placed them both around her throat. Lexa tensed up but Clarke looked completely at ease as she held her hands there against the roughest scar on her body. "Lexa you didn't do a single one of this marks and you'd never add to them right?"

"Of course not! I'd rather die then ever mark you like that," Lexa protested she tried to move her hands away but Clarke kept her hands around her throat pressing her palms against the tough skin.

"I know you wouldn't. You don't have to be afraid of touching me, I trust you with my life, my body, I bare my stomach and throat to you, I submit to you because I wantto," Clarke let go of Lexa's hands she dropped her own hands to the sides allowing her to do what she wished. Lexa's hands lingered around her neck she moved down to use her thumbs to stroke the scar, tracing the outline slowly watching how Clarke closed her eyes completely relaxed.

"A wolf rarely submits willingly huh?" Lexa whispered, the woman shook her head keeping her eye's closed as Lexa touched her. Lexa hasn't touched Clarke's scars, truth be told she had been afraid to touch the marks that those demons had left on her soft skin. She had been worried that if she touched them they would would bring Clarke pain, yet the woman was at ease never once tensing up as she moved down to trace another mark. The gentle vibrating of Clarke's purr helped to calm the nervous edge that attacked at Lexa's nerve system.

Lexa breathes easier, building up confidence her fingers drift lower, stroking Clarke's skin softly tracing her collarbone then down to the valley of the blonde's breast. Clarke's breath hitches as she pushes into Lexa's hands urging her to continue, Lexa bit her lip, cupping her breast she uses her thumbs to rub both of the blonde's stiff nipples. The blonde moans out not holding her voice back in the least, Lexa grazed both sensitive buds repeatedly relishing how Clarke grinds her hips down. Lexa can feel how wet her girlfriend is, her folds covered in the silk fluid dampening her shirt as Clarke rubs against her stomach.

"Move back baby, I want you on my lap," Lexa requested squirming a little to move, Clarke nods seeming to have lost her voice, Lexa can see that she has worked her up pretty well. Lexa grabs Clarke's hip guiding her to move back so she may sit up, once she is happy with the angle she pushes a leg between the blonde's thighs. Clarke looked at her curiously as she looks down from above, Lexa smirked enjoying how the blonde didn't know what to expect. Lexa leaned closer pressing her lips against Clarke's breast kissing mere centimeters away from the harden bud. Clarke's growl of irritation makes Lexa want to tease her further, she continues the slow taunt distracting the woman as her other hand crept up between her thighs towards her mound.

"Please, I want you to suc-" Clarke gasped as Lexa latched onto the woman's perk nipple, the blonde bucked her hips searching for more friction, she brought her leg up letting the she-wolf rub against her. Lexa rolled her tongue around the tit feeling her own labia grow wetter from hearing Clarke's voice. Her girlfriend thrusts her pelvis forward, thong so soaked Lexa can feel her outer labia dragging across her thigh. Lexa looked up at the she-wolf seeing the woman squeezing her eyes shut, mouth parted, breath coming out quickly. Lexa reaches up gripping Clarke's other breast pinching the abandoned nipple between her fingers, Clarke tosses her head back moaning louder.

Lexa swiftly hooked a finger around the thong's fabric easily able to push it aside, lowering her leg makes Clarke growl at the lose. Lexa ignores the offend sound and use one finger to stroke between Clarke's folds, she was dripping wet. Clarke whines out hips grinding down on Lexa's fingers, she moves her hand until she is able to cup Clarke's sex using her palm to push up against the clit. Lexa releases the blonde's nipple, then gently bit down close to the areola sucking on the soft skin as she slowly pushes a finger inside of the woman she loves. Clarke's breath hitches, the sound sharp and loud, Lexa lets go of where she bit leaving behind a bright red mark.

"Are you ok? Did that hurt?" Lexa whispered keeping her finger still not moving it as she ran her hand up and down the blonde's back.

"I'm fine, it didn't hurt at all just felt really good, is it suppose to hurt?" Clarke asked leaning down pressing her lips against Lexa's, nipping at her lip a tad.

"Shouldn't hurt as long as your wet enough and not tensing up, want to stop or keep going?" Lexa asked being sure to kiss Clarke along her breast to insure that it was perfectly fine if she wants to stop. Though Clarke quickly shook her head then tugged on the end of Lexa's shirt,

"Keep going, but I don't want to be the only one that's naked, take off your clothes too," Clarke whined tugging on the shirt again to prove a point, Lexa chuckles gently pulling out of Clarke then allows the woman to pull off her shirt. The woman then smoothly traced down her back until she reached the clasp behind her, unhooking the bra easily. Lexa wondered momentarily if Clarke struggling to take off her own bra had only been a ruse. But she couldn't put much thought into that as Clarke slips off her lap to unzip Lexa's pants.

"Impatient much my hodnes?" Lexa jokes lifting her hips as Clarke pulls down both her panties and pants with little trouble. Clarke smirks at Lexa deliberately showing her fangs even extending a few more,

"Yes I'm impatient, I've been very patient these last few weeks, waiting for you to make your move my female. I carve to touch you, to taste you, to feel you, I desire you as badly as I must howl to the full moon," Clarke stood up straight for a moment then touched her own sides, hands gliding down the moist skin down to her hips, eye's trained solo on her. Lexa's lower torso blazing up immensely as she watches the wolf extend her claws on both of her hands then drags those claws to the small fabric of the thong and in one quick movement Clarke cuts off the black fabric and lets it fall right to the ground. Lexa gulps as she saw how Clarke scans her whole body, licking at her own lips while Lexa pushed further back onto the bed to be more comfortable and to have plenty of room.

"Then come get me," Lexa taunts siting back against the headboard smile growing wider as Clarke got on her hands and knees on the bed and began to crawl forward. Clarke paused for a moment as she saw the tattoo on her lower hip, the symbol for Trikru tribe, everyone in Lexa's tribe had it marked somewhere on their bodies.

She could explain that to her love but right now wasn't the time, Lexa aches to feel the blonde pressed against her so she grips Clarke by the waist then flips them around so that she was on top. She laughed softly seeing Clarke's eyes widen in surprise as Lexa loomed over her, leaning down she presses a kiss to her lips moaning into the kiss as her skin glides against the blonde's. Lexa felt her nipples graze against hers making her push into Clarke further, her own core tingles with anticipation aching for pleasure. She kept Clarke pinned beneath her as she slips herself between the she-wolf's legs, mounting one of her loves thighs as she ran a hand down the woman's stomach. Clarke automatically parts her thighs more allowing Lexa to slip a finger inside, she felt her lover shudder underneath raising her hips to push into Lexa's palm.

The new angle gives Lexa a much needed relief, Clarke's thigh is pushed firmly against her core and she rocks her hips to help her own building desire. She kisses Clarke deeply slipping her tongue inside of the woman's mouth, playing with the warm tongue and tracing the blonde's sharp teeth, Clarke's growls out yet yanks at Lexa to hold her closer. Lexa is embarrassingly soaked her fluids dripping down between her thighs adding to the pleasure, as she uses Clarke's thigh to get off. She pulls away from the kiss quickly not wanting to cum just yet, she wants Clarke to be in sync with her. Clarke is a panting mess as Lexa moves her finger inside of warm juices flow and stain the sheets.

Lexa kisses down her jaw, the blonde manages to purr as Lexa licks the side of her neck and has her tilting her head back. She traces the line of her throat with her tongue before slowly biting down in the same spot from the club. Clarke gasp yanking her, Lexa slips another finger inside and began to pump into her harder, gliding in and out smoothly. Lexa's fingers are coated in Clarke's warm fluids, her mouth waters as she thinks of what Clarke must taste like, a part of her wants to pull out and find out but she restes. The she-wolf holds on tightly growling and purring as she grips at Lexa's waist and held down at the back of her neck. Lexa could tell she was close, her walls squeezing down making it a bit harder to move inside; but still she pushed her fingers in and out of Clarke's core faster shivering at the naughty sounds that came from the friction. Clarke moans her name rocking her hips to meet her palm, Lexa pushes her love into the bed adding the extra pressure she craved and with one hard bite to the side of Clarke's neck, she came undone. Lexa felt her own orgasm following after getting off on merely hearing Clarke cum and howl out her name. Clarke held on to her tightly breathing heavily shacking a bit as she road out her bliss. Lexa kissed along her collarbone comforting the woman reassuring Clarke she was here to catch her as calmed down.

"You're ok babe, I'm right here, you are safe," Lexa whispers soothing Clarke, as her grip loosened and she nuzzled into the side of her throat, Clarke kisses her, purring gently. Lexa feels Clarke nip at her neck a little, more to be playful then wanting to control. She moves back to brush some hair off of the woman's face, a goofy smile comes to Clarke's lips with the actions.

"My head feels fuzzy, is that normal?" Clarke whispered letting out a yawn, she nipped at her collarbone a few times before leaning back on the pillows. Clarke blissful face as she laid beneath Lexa was something she wants to remember for all her life and she'd want to see it over and over again. Her lovers wavy blonde hair cascaded all over the pillow, her royal blue eyes dazed with a glow of true bliss, her pale skin freshly marked with Lexa's own mouth, and Lexa felt her heart bloom with affection for the woman.

"Yes, perfectly normal get some sleep babe," Lexa chuckled as Clarke's eyes

drifted open and closed fighting to stay awake, Lexa kissed her softly when she tried to protest. "I know you are tired you haven't napped at all today. Sleep my hodnes," Lexa whispered moving back a bit to lay besides her but winces a sharp pain shots to her ribs looking down to see what caused the small pain. Lexa notices on her lower rib cage she has a hand shaped bruise with five small puncture wounds, it was from where Clarke had helped onto her. She checked the back of her neck to see if there was anything there, no bruising but there is about two scratch marks.

"What's wrong?" Clarke try's to sit up alert but Lexa gently pushed on her shoulder as she moves to lay down, biting her lips to prevent from wincing again.

"Nothing, it's all good hodnes," Lexa whispered she didn't want to ruin this moment by pointing out to Clarke what she'd done, it would only make her feel guilty. Lexa will have to talk to her later about remembering to be careful with her; it was only a bruise right now but she didn't want to think what could go worst then that. Lexa looped her arms around Clarke holding her close as the blonde had already fallen asleep. Lexa wonders for a moment if she should check her phone to see if her parents called but then thought twice of it, that could wait until tomorrow. Lexa kisses Clarke's cheek smiling as she heard the woman purr in her sleep turning on her side to bury her face into Lexa's chest. Lexa held on tighter before she allowed herself to fall asleep as well far too much in bliss that she didn't hear her phone ring.

Flash back

Lexa POV (6 years old)

"You're alright sweetie, please stay calm, I promise you are safe," a pretty lady told her kneeling close to her, the lady's hair was bright red and very short, right to her ears and her eye's are a dark brown. The color and length of the lady's hair was nothing like her mama's, Lexa shook her head at the stranger clutching to her teddy bear tightly.

"I wanna go home with my mama," Lexa whined looking outside catching a glimpse of the forest before the other stranger stepped in the way. This one was a man, the lady's husband Lexa guessed, he had long black hair and light brown eyes, he crouched down to her eye leave and smiled at her.

"Your Mama is not feeling good right now honey. She needs some time to get better ok? Could you be a good girl for your mama and come home with us for a little while?" The male spoke to her softly offering his hand to shake, Lexa looked at it hesitantly not taking the man's hand instead she held on to her teddy. Lexa nodded though if only to get the man to go away,

"Poor child, that mother of hers was a fool. We will need to contact another Trikru member to do a permanent mind swipe once we reach the tribe," the lady reached down patting her head gently before she swiped placed with the man as he sighed going around the car to the drivers side.

"For now do your temporary mind swipe, convince her we are her parents, otherwise she will be more frightened. The medication Robbin gave her should have kept her asleep for longer," the male said once he got in the car buckling in, Lexa looked between the two not understanding their funny language but flinched when the lady leaned closer towards her. She used her teddy bear like a shield to keep the woman from coming closer,

"But she isn't a normal child, we don't have a clue what she is cabe of and now that blasted woman has left us clueless," The woman smiled, sighing she reached out slowly gripping Lexa's hand carefully as she strokes her hand gently and the lady pulled out a small box. Lexa looked at the box curiously lowering her teddy to lay on her lap as she looked inside the strange box, there are tiny white and black squares. The lady shakes the box side to side and the small squares began to move,

"Your name is Alexandra Debman a simple beautiful human, we are your mama and papa, we love you very much and we are going home now," the lady whispered as Lexa watches the squares dance around the box, the small things moved in circles like water draining down a pipe and then out of now were it begins to flash. Lexa felt like she been frozen in place, unable to move a inch or even blink, her eyes already watering and tears slipped out. The lady kept repeating the same words over and over and Lexa's eyes felt heavier by the minute.

Her head felt fuzzy like someone was grabbing her brain, but she didn't feel as scared anymore and she couldn't remember why she had been afraid in the first place. But in her chest she felt a great loss, a deep pain like the first time she'd seen a mouse die but far worse. In her mind something was being pushed away a forceful hand reaching in her to keep away something that was a part of her. Lexa is losing far more then she can comprehend, maybe that is why so many tears spilled down her cheeks, "you may sleep now baby, soon we will be home and you can play with all your friends," the lady kissed her temple while she whipped away the tears and the square box vanished, Lexa blinked a few times feeling light head she looked over seeing a wom- no her mama. Lexa shook her head a little when she felt a small pinch at the back of her neck, pushing away the feeling she seeks comfort from her mama.

"Hi mama," Lexa smiles holding her arms out for a hug, her mama smiles, leaning down embracing her tightly and gives another kiss to the forehead before shutting the car door. Lexa played with her teddy bear as her mama got in the car and put on her own seat belt. She waited patiently for her parents to adjust up front, glancing outside a few times her chest felt a little tight like she should be sad. Lexa glances outside being only able to see the top of the trees, their leaves slowly turning orange signs of fall approaching. She knew there was someone in her life that loved the fall, how the leaves all changed colors then fell down. That person's favorite part was being able to leap into the piles of leaves that gathered and be able to hear the plants crunch and crumble.

"You ready to go home now Alexandra?" Her papa asked, glancing back at her through the mirror. Lexa rubbed at her eyes sleepily pushing away that memory then nodded before snuggling up to teddy breathing in his familiar smells. For whatever reason, being able to smell her teddy bear put her at ease, teddy smells like pine trees and her mama's pretty rose perfume.

"I ready papa," Lexa yawned out, she listened to her parents talk for a little while talking about how much longer it will take to get home. Her papa arguing about taking the high bridge road as a short cut but her mama wants to take the back roads. They eventually agreed to take the short cut and the car went a little faster as her papa took the bridge. Lexa was close to falling asleep but didn't get the chance as there was a very loud screech before the car was suddenly shoved and everything went spinning.

Xxxx Warning!! Car accident scene!!! Xxxxx

Lexa tiredly yanks at the seat belt, her head was hurting feeling dizzy from hanging upside down, her chest burning from where a part of the car pressed into her. Lexa wants to move away but the thing pushed into her chest made it hard for her to breath or even move. Each time she moves more blood flowed down forcing one of her eyes shut from the where the scarlet liquid has dried up. She kicks out at the seat in front of her trying to wake up her parents, "Please wake up mama...papa," Lexa whined out again kicking harder but cried out as the metal piece in her chest cut her once more. She is feeling incredibly tired not wanting to stay awake and just fall asleep but then she hears new voices coming close.

"Is anyone still alive? There's so much blood," a male spoke the voice sounds closer Lexa couldn't see them, but knew she needed to speak up but she was afraid to talk to strangers. She looked both ways, the window to the right is shattered and she could see the car that had hit them, it was a big truck but the front part had been smashed from where it had hit the car. On the other side she could see the woods, all over the grass there shards of broken glass and blood. The sun was setting and the reflection of the sun made the blood look like a pool of tare.

"Come on Jake, it doesn't hurt to check," a woman added, Lexa flinched when she suddenly saw a pair of bare feet at her window, the person got on their hands and knees then peeked inside. A woman with curly long brown hair looked right at her, eyes a dark brown yet seemed warm and friendly. The stranger's clothes were kind of dirty like they been in the mud and she even had some twigs stuck in her hair. "Well hello there sweetie, don't you worry, I'll help you. What's your name?" The woman glanced at her parents in the front seats, her face scrunched up showing sadness before she looked back at Lexa smiling gently.

"Alexandra...Alexandra Debnam," she whispered softly shrinking back when the woman began to crawl inside the car but hissed when the metal cut her again. The woman glanced over to her parents first, leaning between the seats she saw the woman left her mama's and papa's shirt just a little past their bellies. Lexa couldn't see what she looking for since she blocked most of the view and then she moved back to face Lexa.

"My name is Abigail but you can call me Abby. Don't move honey, I'll get you free and make the pain go away," Abby spoke so softly that it helped Lexa feel a little better, she nodded watching as Abby willingly got on her knees with all the broke glass then study the metal that was stuck in her chest. Lexa noticed her teddy bear is not to far away from the stranger, she wants to asks Abby to grab it for her but the lady was busy figuring out the metal piece. Lexa whimpers when Abby reaches up tapping the metal a little testing how stuck it is.

"I know pup, I know it's ok deep breaths ok? Can you be a brave girl for me?" Abby whispered as she leaned closer, Lexa nodded wanting to be brave enough and trying to ignore the fresh blood that came out of her. Lexa watched as Abby got closer gripping the metal piece in her hands then some how began to tare the metal in half; the small jerks pierced into her chest and Lexa couldn't help but cry out with fresh tears filling her eyes. "I know sweetie, it hurts, but you are being such a brave pup, Alexandra. It's ok if you want yell," Abby whispered to her the woman comforting her with her voice alone. She wasn't sure why the strange woman gave her such comfort but she did feel safer then before the crash.

"It hurts Abby, it hurts a lot," Lexa cries, Abby came closer managing to cradle her as she took off the seat belt, and the woman gently held on to her taking them both out of the car. Abby avoided Lexa getting hit by anything else but she could see from where Abby held her that she had cut her hands. But Abby didn't bother with her cuts the woman seeming only concerned with keeping Lexa safe. She looked down to see the metal piece still stuck in her chest, she reached up trying to pull it out but that stung,

"No Alexandra, don't do that, you'll only hurt yourself, I'll take it out for you and make the pain stop for a little while," Abby lectured her as the woman carried her further away from where her parents were still in the car. Lexa wanted to look back but Abby angled her body to the point she couldn't see anything past her. She became confused by the woman's claim, she didn't see anything on the woman that could help make her pain better.

"How? Are you a doctor?" Lexa asked as the woman lowered down until they were both on the ground, Abby laid her head on her lap while Lexa looked up at her. The woman shook her head before glancing up then gestured towards someone to come over.

"No, but I have a magical wolf here, he knows how to make ouchies go away," Abby told her looking off to the side waiting, the woman stroked her hair running her fingers through it to help sooth her. She heard a loud breaking sound like when a branch was stroked down by thunder but this was louder, seeming to be close. Lexa looked over to see what on earth could make such an awful noise, but when she peeked over she flinched, seeing a huge light blonde wolf. "Shhh it's ok, his a nice wolf, he won't hurt you. Would you Jake?" Lexa was stunned to see the wolf shake his head before he moved closer and sniffed at the metal still inside of her. The wolf whined as he looked up at Abby meeting her eye's, the wolf stared at the woman a while like he was some how talking to her.

"If this was our pup would you let her die? Damn any wolf who dare tell me to allow a pup to die!" Abby made a weird noise like she was gurgling, Jake let out a deep breath before shaking his head then leaned down licking at some cuts on Lexa's palm. Lexa would have yanked away but he some how made the small cuts stop hurting, she brought her hand closer not seeing any tiny cuts from where the glass hit her.

"Where's Clarke?" Abby asked suddenly, Lexa looked at Jake as he stared off towards the other car she couldn't see past him but whatever he saw made him whine.

"We'll help her to, if the girl is older she can fight for a little longer to stay alive, but this one needs our help first," Abby reaches down then gently placed her hand over Lexa's eyes, "Don't be afraid Alexandra, everything will be ok, do you think you can be brave for me again?"

"Yes, is Jake going to help me too?" Lexa whispered reaching up to touch the back of Abby's hand, she held on her fingers not to move them away but to hold on to them.

"Yes he is, deep breath pup," Abby leaned down pressing a kiss to her forehead, Lexa heard Jake come closer feeling his paws hit her sides, she reached down to grip his fur. "I'm going to yank this out and you'll start to heal the wound, you won't be able to close it completely but it can help slow the bleeding," Lexa felt when Abby grabbed the metal piece, she held on tightly to her fingers and Jake's fur whimpering afraid of the pain to come.

"We will call the tribe, they need to know two of their own have passed on and they will know what to do with the little one," Abby pressed another kiss to her forehead, "Alright Alexandra be brave now, remember deep breaths ok?" Lexa nodded she breathed in deeply filling her lungs as much as she could and then Abby pulled. Lexa screamed at the fire that bursted in her ch-

Present time

Lexa sat up in bed immediately screaming out as she clutched at her chest, skin prickling from the imaginary pain. She felt disoriented as she looked around trying to come back to the real world after having that awful nightmare. She checked beside her searching for her girlfriend but Clarke wasn't there with her, the sheets weren't warm so she must have gotten up a while ago. Lexa jolted when she heard the phone go off on the nightstand, checking the screen she saw her mama's picture. Lexa sighed taking a few deep breaths as she reached over to answer the phone,

"Hi mama," Lexa glanced down at herself noticing she was still naked and kind of a mess, the side of her rib from where Clarke gripped her was turning a light blue. The small puncture wounds from her claws were gone which meant Clarke must have healed her at some point. Her head throbbed a little as the nightmare slowly faded away she pushed at her temple trying to ease the ache. Lexa really hated having that nightmare, while she had the dream it was terrifyingly intense and swears that she feels a physical pain every time, yet when she fucking wakes up, it's forgotten. She only knew by the throbbing headache that she had that damn dream, Lexa rubbed at the old scar on her chest it was kind of itching for some reason.

"Lexa! How could you not call me sooner and told me about your new girlfriend?" Her mama's disappointed tone spoke of how betrayed she felt. Lexa could hear her papa in the background complaining as well, their combined yelling was not helping with her headache, pinching the bridge of her nose she reminds herself to stay calm. It had slipped Lexa's mind that Luna has posted and tagged her on Facebook, she set her phone on speaker so she may see the pictures herself. Accessing her home page she quickly looked for the pictures which weren't hard to find since it was the first thing that popped up.

Lexa didn't fight the smile that came from seeing the photos, they were honestly adorable pictures and she definitely planned on saving them. The first was when she stood behind Clarke hugging her waist and her girlfriend leaning back into her, a smile on both of them that it is so bright it made Lexa relive the moment. The second one was of when Lexa surprised Clarke with a kiss on her lips, eyes wide and a smile tugging at the corn of her own lips. And the third is of them kissing and holding on to each other, Lexa had her eyes closed but Clarke's were open just a tad, the way her holes looked up at her like she was the entire world made Lexa swoon. Luna really had an eye for pictures, she somehow was actually able to capture the emotions she and Clarke felt for each other; both an incredible and troublesome thing, because now everyone knows she is with Clarke. A quick glance at the comments proved Lexa's point, those who knew her and were friends with her asked about who the drop-dead gorgeous blonde is and those who didn't know her were saying how adorable the two of them were.

"You got some explaining to do forest ranger! Those pictures you were tagged in on Facebook are a big give away that wasn't your first date," her papa grumbled clearly just as upset, Lexa rolled her eyes, the peaceful moment she had to admire the pictures slipping away since she was about to be lectured. She lays back in bed seeing as she wasn't going to get the chance to shower first. She had to push away the fact that she is on the phone with her parents, not only naked but talking to them after having had sex with her girlfriend last night, for the first time. Lexa cheeks went red feeling the need to end the call as soon as possible and clean herself up.

"Hi mama, papa, I'm doing great thank you so much for asking and guess what? I found a girl that I really like and been dating for her a few weeks now," Lexa sighed grateful that her headache was at least going away, she glances at her phone to see what time it is, it feels kind late. The clock informed her it was early afternoon just past 12:00 pm, god she wasn't one to sleep in so late; normally she woke up at 8 am on a day off of work and woke at 5 or 6 am when she had work.

"Are you sass mouthing me, my child? Who raised, clothed, and feed you for so many years my little one?" her mama dropped into the role of a mother demanding respect, Lexa could tell she was going to give her hell if she didn't behave, but honestly her parents literally just woke her up and not in the best way either.

"No mama, I'm not sass mouthing, but honestly that's how you greet me after not calling for a while?" Lexa laughed hoping to get them to stop lecturing and they may have a peaceful phone call. She could picture her mama tapping her foot annoyed for pointing out the obvious. Lexa poked at the buries on her ribs a little to see how tender it is, funny enough it is not so bad, sore but not painful. She checked the small cuts on the back of her neck but those were gone too, again Clarke must have healed them, she is such a sweetheart. Lexa wonders where she is right now; it wouldn't be the first time Lexa has woken up to not find her girlfriend in bed when the sun rises. Clarke often went out in the early morning to hunt something down to eat, filling up for most of the day and then ate lunch and dinner with them so she wouldn't be hungry later on. Her lover's appetite couldn't be stained with only the meats Lexa had here, Clarke needs to eat at least 8-10 pounds daily.

"She's got you there Indra, we haven't called back in over a week,"

"Hush August! I know how long it's been,"

"Then why haven't you called her back? She always calls us every week to see how we are and check up on us,"

"Yet you had my phone last week! You were the one who didn't answer when she called. I was busy with an order!"

Lexa listened as her parents bicker in the background, something they often did but it was never spiteful, her parents just like to mess with each other. She heard a small scratch at her bedroom door, making sure to grab a long T-shirt she tossed it on. She headed to the door when the small scratch came again, when Lexa opened the door she expected to see Jelly but instead she was staring at a familiar enormous golden wolf. Lexa squalid when Clarke pushed inside nudging her onto the bed before she looked around, the fur on the back of her neck was rising up. She was going to get up to close the door but then Jam came running inside all smiles and tail wags as he quickly chases after the wolf. Lexa was shocked to see Jam following after Clarke as she wandered into the bathroom looking inside, Jam's tail wouldn't stop wagging keeping his focus on her girlfriend.

"Clarke, what are you doing?" Lexa whispered moving the phone away from her ear, the golden wolf was thoroughly checking around the room sniffing at the air. Lexa felt the tingle on her forehead as their minds linked and Clarke went into the bathroom to turn around then leaned down on her front legs to look underneath the bed.

Jam thinking they were playing jumped in front of her getting ready to rustle with her but one quick snap of her teeth made him stand back up. Jam huffed before moving back and sat down on his hind legs, he pawed at the floor communicating that they should play. Yet Clarke was completely focused on checking everywhere under the bed even moving forward she nudged the bed to the side. Lexa honestly couldn't stop being surprised by this wolf, she moved that bed like it was nothing but it took her, Anya, and Lincoln to left the damn box it came in.

"You screamed earlier, I thought you were in danger," Clarke opened her muzzle to grab the beds edge and then pulled the bed back in place. She sighs as she stood back up knocking into the nightstand causing a few of Lexa's things to fall. Clarke looked down at the stuff she dropped for a moment as if surprised she managed to do it. The golden wolf began picking up the small things and putting them back on the nightstand, though not in the right stops, obviously. Lexa had to hold back a chuckle as Jam now got tired of waiting to play and took it upon himself to jump forward and nip at Clarke's hind leg. The wolf let out a growl annoyed as she been in the middle of picking up a necklace, the wolf extended her back paw pushing Jam away.

"No I'm fine, I just had a d-

"Lexa? Lexa are you there?" Lexa held her a finger to her lips signaling for Clarke to be quiet, the wolf nodded as she kept shoving Jam back to finish picking up the mess. Once she got everything, she backed up then tried to move around the bed quietly but bumped into the wardrobe sending her teddy bear flying and her tail knocked over several picture frames. Lexa shot out catching at least two of them and Clarke managed to lay down in time for the other frame to land on her butt.

"Yes, I'm here mama, sorry Clarke just came in to ask for something," Lexa shot Clarke a glare for nearly destroying her pictures, Clarke smiled at her sheepishly staying on the floor this time. Jam took the chance to snatch up the old teddy bear that Lexa has had for as long as she could remember. The teddy bear was so worn out, having lost its dark brown coloring over the years but Lexa can never bring herself to throw it away. Yet for the life of her, she couldn't remember who gave it to her, only knowing that she loved the silly old thing even when it just had one blue button eye. She gestures to Clarke to take it back from him without it getting torn. While the wolf busied herself with trying to free the teddy bear Lexa adjusted the things her clumsy werewolf knocked down.

"Clarke? What a strange name for a girl," Lexa sighed hearing the way her father said the name, her parents may have joked about her finding someone to marry but they were parents, after all, they were overprotective and strong-headed.

"Ignore your papa, you must come to the festival this Saturday and bring your girlfriend so we may meet her," her mama instead, the way she spoke meant she wouldn't take no for an answer. Lexa shook her head looking down at Clarke who had managed to set her teddy bear free from Jam with no damage. Clarke turned her head offering the stuffed toy to her, Lexa smiled taking hold of it she leaned down pressing her lips to her nose. Her wolf purred happily licking under her chin a bit before Lexa sat up and held the teddy bear in her lap,

"Let me talk with her first mama, see if she can even go, she could be busy," Lexa tried to argue, she really didn't think Clarke was ready to meet her parents or for them to meet her girlfriend, the werewolf. And who was currently messing with Jam by lightly shoving him back before he lunged forward muzzling her playfully?

"It will only be for a few days sweety, are you saying she can't spare a weekend to meet your family?" Her papa accused, Lexa smacked at her forehead these kinds of comments were exactly what she was afraid of. Clarke spoke her mind without thinking, she would literally tell someone if she didn't like them. Hell Clarke made the mailman cry when she told him he smelled weird and that she didn't like his face fur which was a beard that was barely growing in. Her parents were polite of course but they could be snarky in how they ask for things in order to get someone to answer them.

"Not what I meant papa, look let me talk with her and I'll see if she can come with me for the weekend," Lexa sighed giving up on trying to fight this because her parents were relentless when they wanted something. Plus if she didn't agree to go see them, they would come here which could be far worse,

Lexa loves her parents with all her heart but she keeps her love life private for a reason. The one time she brought over a girl to them, they practically scared the girl for life; when her papa thought it is a great idea to show her ex how to skin a fresh hunt. The girl was a white as a ghost before dismissing herself and ran out the front door, Lexa didn't hear from her again. It was the last time Lexa brought a girl anywhere near her parents, she heard a warning growl at her feet looking down she saw that Jam had bitten at Clarke's ear. The golden wolf snapped around bitting Jam's neck, Lexa had to look away cause she had to remember Clarke wasn't actually hurting the dog just correcting him. Jam yelped though having been startled, he then licked at Clarke's muzzle asking to be forgiven,

"What was that? Is everything alright?" Her mama panicked, Clarke huffed at her feet before she licked Jam's muzzle to convey that everything was alright. Jam yelped happily nipping at Clarke's cheeks to affectionate,

"Everything is fine mama, please don't worry I'll call you or send you a text if we can make it to the festival," Lexa bid her parents a quick goodbye before hanging up, she watched for a little while as Clarke continued to play with Jam, the massive creature squished between her bed and the wardrobe. Lexa noticed something on Clarke's shoulder shift, carefully she moved closer to see what caused her fur to stir. She nearly jumped off the bed when a paw darted out and patted her hand. Lexa parted Clarke's fur not jumping this time when a little gray paw smacks the back of her hand, she found Jelly who had somehow nested into the golden fur. Jelly looked rather content being curled up in Clarke's fur, she could hear the kitten purring as she then licks at Clarke's shoulder grooming her,

"Darn thing hasn't come out, Lincoln tried to get her off me earlier but the furball scratched him," Clarke looked up at her after nudging Jam away, she stood up careful not to ram into anything then tried to shake before Jelly hissed from inside of Clarke's fur. "Stupid thing, do you think you can get her off me? She's using me like I'm a bed that's beyond demeaning," Clarke grumbled while she adjusted herself to sit down in front of Lexa where she'd be able to work on getting Jelly off of her.

"How in the world did she get in here in the first place?" Lexa laughed while she leaned down grabbing a hold of the kitten and ignoring Jelly when she hissed. The kitten wasn't happy at being removed from her new comfy spot, Lexa started to tug on her tail to distract Jelly from trying to claw. As Lexa removed Jelly she put the kitten behind her back and grabbed one of the feathered toys she keeps close by. Lexa dangled the thing in front of the kitten's face and Jelly focused on it right away, swatting at the blue and pink feathers repeatedly.

"I was teaching Jam how to protect himself from predators and this damn thing came out of nowhere and jumped on my back," Clarke growled leaning down to lay her head on top of Jam's back who had curled into her side, the silly pit bull was falling asleep as he buried his muzzle into her coat. Lexa smiled feeling happy that the housepets have fallen for Clarke and it was nice to see that they weren't afraid of her wolf form. Lexa felt her phone buzz against her thigh glancing down she saw a text from her mama reminding her to ask the girlfriend about the festival. Another message came through that threatened they would come over here to where she lived for the entire weekend if Clarke happened to be too busy to come to them.

"You remember that full moon festival I was telling you about yesterday at the restaurant? How'd you like to go and meet my parents?" Lexa questioned a little worried that maybe Clarke would change her mind about wanting to come.

"Yes I remember, but your parents don't sound entirely happy about me being with you," Clarke whined picking up her head to look at Lexa, those pretty blue eyes showed how concerned she is. Maybe now Clarke understood why she wants to hold off on meeting the parents. Lexa shook her head smiling as she guides Clarke to lay her head on her lap,

"I figured you'd be able to hear them, it's not that they aren't happy about you to specify it's more like they are mad at me for not telling them I'm dating a someone," Lexa reassured Clarke scratching either side of the wolf's head making the creature purr and move closer,

"Well as long as you're sure they won't hate me then I'd be like to go to the festival, should be fun," Clarke reached up pressing her cold nose to her cheek, Lexa chuckled at the feeling as she grabbed the wolf under her muzzle making her lower her head so she may place a kiss between her eyes.

"So you're up for the challenge to meet not only my family but also my tribe?" Lexa challenged bopping Clarke's nose, the wolf snorted, offended at being called some form of weak. Lexa pulled her teddy bear from under the golden wolf's head, placing it aside to put it on the nightstand. She looked at the teddy for a moment the poor old thing had seen better days, stuffing still intact yet missing a button eye, if Lexa remembers right the other button had been gray.

"Oh please, they're human, I can handle them with no issue but umm on one condition," Clarke nuzzled Lexa's neck, she stroked down her neck playfully fluffing up her fur. Along with Clarke's neck, Lexa noticed the fur was growing thicker, her winter coat was slowly coming in but it was still the start of fall, strange.

"And what would that be?" Lexa hadn't noticed that Jelly was no longer behind her, missing how she had jumped down and pushed inside of Clarke's chest fluff,

"Please get this damn furball out of my fur, she's going to give me another fucking bald spot," Clarke sat up puffing up her chest, showing where Jelly hung on to her fur like she was a scratching post, the kitten's tail twitching side to side clearly amused. Lexa laughed as she reached down carefully grabbing each of Jelly's paw to untangle her claws. Clarke waited patiently as Lexa worked on removing the kitten again without getting scratched, seeing her wolf being so calm now made her think that maybe she could handle her parents. Lexa and Clarke will have to come up with a story about how they meet and see just how much they could tell her parents. Lexa told herself that everything will turn out all right with her family, but... maybe it was just from being nervous but a part of Lexa got the feeling that Clarke shouldn't come anywhere near her old home.
