Kiba
Despite myself, I growled, not to loudly though.
She was going to be my mate! I thought as I glared at Hegei.
"Mr. Kiba…sir?" Baku said timidly standing before me.
I only glanced at her with a chilling stare that made her shiver, "A-…Are you ready to go?" She gulped, I just nodded kicking up dirt with my paws as I trotted ahead of her.
Baku followed beside me keeping up with me.
In complete silence,…that's how the pack traveled until we reached the edge of the town.
"I smell humans." Hegei stated, well duh…where near a town, full of humans.
I thrusted my snout into the air and inhaled the slightly familiar scent of humans
Tsume shuddered shaking his head, "Can we just get this over with…?" he asked snout in the air.
I nodded as we got into our human disguises.
Me the tall messy brown haired brown-eyed paled skinned young man dressed in a t-shirt and jeans and a leather jacket to keep me warm. I was the one that seemed not to fit in the one to cause trouble which in truth was Hegei's job, my job was to pretty much just to lead them I guess…I was like the alpha male of the group.
Toboe the young innocent looking amber eyed sable haired teen, with lightly tanned skin dressed in an orange shirt tucked neatly into his tan khakis and four thick silver bracelets around his slim wrist that clinked together every time he moved.
Heigei was a young man just like me only with messier dark brown hair and big playful green eyes, dressed in orange sweatshirt and shorts, he also had a collar that had a "24" engraved into it, on a silver plate. His whole attire seemed just perfect for his happy go lucky attitude.
Tsume the rather pale one with silvery short hair that was gathered together at the edge of his neck in a tiny ponytail, he was dressed in mostly leather, black tight pants, and black vest, The neck of it was dipped low enough for the world to get a glimpse of his scared chest. He had this "back off" attitude about when really -if you got know him – he was kinda nice and a bit softhearted at least for Toboe
I glanced around excepting to still see the girls in their wolf forms but to my surprise, three rather beautiful women took their place.
The tallest of the group was only a head and a half shorter then me, with black hair and her bangs dyed blue, skin a creamy brown color and blue-violet eyes. She was dressed in a black belly tee that had written across her rather big chest (not that I was looking) "Keep staring…I might do a trick" and hip hugging jeans that where enough pulled down low enough to spark even my imagination. She also had a silver star shaped studs going through the tip her of ears and small silver clipped on her ears, a small half moon stud through her left nostril.
The second tallest was as tall as Hegei maybe 2 or 3 heads shorter, with big baby blue eyes and sandy blonde hair that flowed a bit past her waist, she had the palest skin I've ever seen, it was almost the color of milk…well maybe not that pale, dressed in a belly tee similar to the black haired girls except hers was yellow with a ridicules saying on it something like "Bumble Gum Girl" and a leather mini skirt that was so short it barely fit over her rounded rear….not that I was complaining. A/N:Snickers: Hegei: half moon stud could make the skirt a tiny bit shorter oo! A/N: perv…¬.¬; and a silver anklet with half moon charms was decorated her slim ankle.
The last girl was a timid young looking one with sable hair, she had wide innocent green eyes and cute smile on her dimpled child like face. Dressed in a simple belly tee (like the 2 other girls…is this some sorta new trend?) that had written across her flat chest "Cutie Pie" and jean shorts that where long her. She had a silver chain that was attached to a silver bell in the shape of a sun.
Hegei and Toboe stared, had a bit drool dribbling down their chins. I couldn't help myself either, I stared from the corner of my eye at the black haired girl who smiled down at the sable haired girl.
The black haired girl looked up gave each of us a once over but she lingered on me that made the corner of my lips twitch.
"So are you guys ready or not?" she said sticking a hip out and placed a slender hand upon it.
All I did was blink and tilt my head a bit., "Do...we know you?" Toboe asked politely.
The sable haired girl sighed, "It is me Baku!" She smiled winking playfully at Toboe and he in return blushed a cheery red.
"I'm Kusarama" the blonde haired girl said sauntering up to Hegei and tickling him under his chin lightly, Hegei's foot tapped the ground repeatedly as he closed his eyes and sighed.
"And of course I'm Ki-Yugi" the black haired girl yawned pushing back her blue bangs.
That's Ki-Yugi?I thought, that bombshell in a belly tee, I didn't realize my jaw dropped until Hegei pushed it back up for me.
Keep it calm I thought, keep it cool I took a deep breath held it for twenty seconds and exhaled.
I glanced at Ki-Yugi as she glared at Kusarama, who was currently flirting shamelessly with Hegei, who in return flirted back just as shamelessly, and let me tell you they the flirting they where doing was not "Playful", they where rub against each other, and touching I shudder to think what they'd do in private.
I saw something glimmer and trickle down Ki-Yugi's cheek, at first I looked to the clouds thinking Rain..? then the faint scent of salt tickled my nose, …she's crying I looked a Ki-Yugi who hung her head.
"Ki-Yugi?" I said softly reaching out for her, she tensed up when I brushed a hand against her damp cheek and looked up, her blue-violet eyes now totally violet as more tears trickled out.
Stepping back she quickly wiped her face dry with the back of her arm then flashed me a fake smile.
"Ready to go check out the town Kiba?" she smiled even bigger and faker tilting head.
I just nodded my head as she grabbed my hand, her hand felt so small with in mine it made seem rather fragile, like one of those little glass figures I saw once in a store.
The others followed slowly behind us, "Ki-Yugi-sempai!" Baku sang out.
Ki-Yugi glanced over her shoulder, dry-eyed and eyes back to there blue-violet shade.
Baku came running up to us with her hand gripped tightly onto Toboe's, it was actually rather adorable cause both their cheeks where cherry red and they would glance at one another when the other wasn't looking.
"Can me and Toby-chan go look at the toy-stand over there?" Baku pointed over her shoulder, a grin split Ki-Yugi's face.
Toby-chan? I thought with a grin of my own.
"Sure…but you two pups stay together. Me and Kiba will be over there by that old lookin building, aright?" Ki-Yugi patted Baku's head affectionately.
Baku's eyes lit up as she smiled and pounced on Ki-Yugi burying her face into Ki-Yugi's stomach, "Thank you big sis!" she whispered then grabbed Toboe's hand and they darted off across the street.
"Big sis?" I glanced a Ki-Yugi quirking a brow.
"She and I are the only ones to survive a surprise attack from another pack of wolves that killed all of our family"
"That's…awful" I muttered, "Yea" Ki-Yugi nodded stuffing her hands into her pockets and walking to a tiny restaurant on the left side of the street
"Me and Hegei-chan are gonna check out if there are any inn's where we all can stay the night…come on Hegei" Kusarama purred out as she grabbed Hegei by his collar and dragged him behind her.
Ki-Yugi growled loudly as she glared at Kusarama's back as she disappeared into the crowd with Hegei.
I could've sworn I heard her utter "The damn slut", it made my lips curve into a grin.
Tsume who I totally forget was with us, muttered something like "I'ma going to check out the town I'll see you later" and then waltzed off.
So now, it was Ki-Yugi and me...
Alone…
Holy beings above… help me control my hormones I prayed in my head, though it was rather hard to keep control with Ki-Yugi walking slowly in front of me swinging those well rounded hips of hers.
I nearly groaned aloud when she bent down to pick something up off the ground but I quickly gazed somewhere else as we entered the little restaurant.
She waved to the bar tender who in return smiled and inclined his head, I followed into the back of the restaurant where there was very little light…just the way I like it.
She did not look up when I plopped down noisily beside her, "Well, well if isn't the young lass Ki-Yugi" said a voice.
I looked up to see a motherly looking woman with her petite hands on her slim waist, she had a massive amount of short red curls around her face, and grassy green eyes.
"What can I get you and your handsome lad?" The lady said in a charming accent that seemed to roll right off her tongue.
A faint blush crept into my cheeks as I coughed awkwardly.
"I want the usual Elena" Ki-Yugi said with a sigh, "Uh…what you got?" I flashed Elena a charming smile.
"Well lad" Elena said scratching her chin "We got the pie of the day which is blueberry, we got sandwiches and Mr. Gideon over there can make a mean steak.", the mention of steak caught my attention.
"I'll have milk and a steak" I smiled at her again and she returned it, then walked off to the bar to relay out order to the cook.
Ki-Yugi and I sat silently except for the sound of her nails clicking together as she laid her head back and stared at the ceiling.
The silence seemed to stretch forever until I said "Ki-Yugi?".
She gave an audible grunt, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing" she mumbled.
"It about Hegei isn't it?"
She grunted again and I gave a frustrated growl, then it got silent again at least until Elena came sauntering up to carrying a mug of milk and the other mug I didn't know.
"A milk for the young lad" Elena said as she plopped my drink down, "And the usual for Ki"
As Elena leaned over me to give Ki-Yugi her drink, I got the faintest whiff of peppermint and jasmine.
Tea… I thought and looked at her and quirked a brow as I sipped my milk which was pleasantly cool.
"Your mad about Kusarama taking Hegei away aren't ya?", that seemed to make her fur bristle.
"No…I'm not" she said as she gritted her teeth –loudly- together.
Taking another sip of the cool milk, I glanced at her out of the corner of my eye ready to ask another question but decided against at the killer look she was giving me.
So we sat like that, till my steak came, the first whiff of it had my mouth watering, but the first bite made me hear a choir sing Haljjuah (?) and my stomach was doing flip flops of joy.
I savored every bite until my plate was clear, Ki-Yugi placed her empty mug on my plate just as Elena swung by and picked them up.
"Shall we go?" I asked her quietly, she nodded and waved to Elena as she walked off.
"Don't you have to pay?" I blinked as we stood outside, "Not if you work there." She smirked when I blinked again.
"They know I'm a wolf but they actually don't really mind," She tucked on of her hands into her pockets, "They have me run errands it's a way I earn my keep so the pups can eat."
"So if I shed this silly human disguise and pranced around as myself would they care?" I asked as I absent-mindedly linked her free hand with mine.
She glanced down at our linked hands and tried tugging her's free, but I wouldn't let her so she shrugged it off.
"No…as long as you where with one of the pups or me," she said as we found Toboe and Baku pressing the nose against a window.
