Anniversary
An hour and a half later, we came back into the forest and started our run home. Bella had a solid cast on her right wrist which would be on for a week before we could crack it off. I was so thankful for her fast healing. I didn't want to see that thing on her for long.
As soon as we were at the edge of the meadow with our cottage, I scooped her into my arms bridle style. She was giggling and biting her lip as I ran us into our little home. I sat on the couch, holding her in my lap.
"I'm taking you to dinner tonight baby. You deserve so much after today."
"And what about you? You nearly had your head ripped off."
"As long as I get to love you then I'm happy."
We spent the afternoon cuddled up together before she put a dress on and we headed through the forest to Port Angeles. I rarely saw her in a dress as she wore flannel shorts and vest top most of the time. When she finished eating her food, we went for a walk around the lake and casually strolled into the forest. There was no need for us to get back to our cottage so we walked slowly, hand in hand. After spending a couple hours cuddling up on the couch, she got ready for bed and lay on my chest. I combed through her hair as she slept and mumbled my name along with some nonsense about pineapples.
"Morning my love. Happy Anniversary."
A large smile spread across her face as she looked up at me.
"Happy Anniversary honey."
She brought her lips to mine and wound her fingers into my hair. Holding my arms around her, I moved my lips with hers. We stayed like that for a while, beginning our one year anniversary before sitting her into my lap.
"I have some presents for you baby."
"I have some for you too."
"I'll get you your breakfast if you light a fire."
"Okay."
Pecking her lips, she climbed from my lap and took her rucksack into the living room. I smiled after her and lifted my own rucksack. Opening the mini fridge in the corner, I grabbed a blueberry muffin and a chocolate muffin and poured a glass of orange juice. Setting them in front of her, I pressed my lips to hers and brought her into my lap. She started nibbling at the muffin and leaned her head on my shoulder.
"You're so beautiful baby."
Tilting her head upwards, she kissed my jaw and continued eating. Her heated body warmed my cold one up as our skin was touching. We both liked it this way, me without my shirt on and her in her bra. With her first muffin finished, she gulped down the orange juice and opened her bag. Pulling a neatly wrapped present from her bag, she handed it to me and pressed her lips to mine.
"Happy Anniversary."
"Thank you baby."
It was a first edition Romeo and Juliet from 1597.
"Open it."
On the first page was a short note but meant a lot to me.
For my very own Romeo.
Happy Anniversary honey
Love, your girl

"I love it. I love you baby and you certainly are my girl."
Lowering my lips to hers, I kissed her gently and passionately. When she pulled away, I moved my lips to her forehead and held her closer to me.
"Your turn baby."
I handed her the first of her gifts and she held it carefully in her hands. Slowly, the paper was pulled off it and she gasped. On the front was a delicately inscribed message.
The Masen's
A family that will never be forgotten
"My mom had it made after my father passed. You wanted to see pictures of my human family. These are for you and don't worry I have copies of them all."
A tear ran down her cheek and I knew she was alright because of her beautiful smile. She hugged the photo album to her chest and threw her arm around my neck and pulled my lips to hers.
"It's in its original condition and all the pictures hold particular memories for my family. I can't remember all of them though."
"It's perfect."
"You're perfect baby."
"I'm anything but perfect."
"You're perfect to me baby. I love you."
"I know."
For the next ten minutes we just had a loving make out session. This was what we did. There were times we would start a conversation and just kiss for a long time instead. When you don't see your love for almost a month at a time, it becomes difficult.
"Open your next one."
After placing the next one in my lap for me, she lifted her other muffin and started nibbling at it. It was a leather bracelet with a wolf carved into it.
"All imprints get a bracelet with a wolf on it from their wolf. It's to show the people on the res that they are important in the community."
"Thank you baby. I love it."
She clipped it round my wrist and kissed the back of my hand. I lay my hand on her stomach, keeping her close to me.
"I got this for you."
In seconds the wrapping was off her next present and she was holding a small, furry stuffed wolf. It was chocolate brown in colour and had dark brown eyes. She held it to her chest, looking up at me.
"I love it so much."
"Now you have something of the real you. You're a wolf baby and you should be proud."
"You are amazing honey. You know that right?"
She attacked me with kisses, her fingers gripping at the wolf. I returned her kisses with equal passion, my hands moving up and down her sides. We finally pulled away again and she had a couple of tears falling down her cheeks. Gently, I kissed them away and cradled her to me.
"Do you want your last one now or later?"
"I'll wait for later if you can."
"Will you read me a story?"
"Anytime."
She sat the photo album on her lap and opened it to the first page. It was a picture of my father, holding a baby me. It was taken the day after I was born.
"You're so cute."
"This was the first ever picture taken of me. My parents were so happy when I was born. They always wanted a little baby to love. They were so happy when I came along. They wanted as many pictures as they could get but cameras were expensive back then and they didn't have a lot for them to be developed and everything."
"I'm glad they got some pictures though. Nothing ever happens the same way twice and even though you don't forget the important moments, it's nice to have a visual to share with others."
"You're so clever baby."
I kissed the top of her head and she turned the page. This picture was taken a week after I was born outside my old home.
"This was the first time I went home. My mom stayed in hospital with me for a week because that's what most women had to do in those times. My mother's the one taking the picture. My father was so proud to be holding his boy. I was their little boy and they loved me so much."
She turned around slightly so her back was resting against one side of my chest. Her head leaned against my cheek and her broken wristed hand clutched at the wolf.
"They still love you Edward. They're up there with my mom watching over us."
"I know they are baby."
Turning my head a little, I placed my lips to her temple as she turned the page. We continued on like that, with me explaining what I could about each image until we got to the last. This one I remembered for myself.
"My mom took this three days before my dad passed. That's why it's in the hospital. It was the last one of the whole family being alive. I think my mom took this one to commemorate my father's death, but I like to think of it more as a celebration of his life. We all knew he was dying but never talked about it. At least not when I was there. My father acted like nothing was wrong, I mean you could tell he was sick but he tried to hide it. He was a strong man."
Bella's fingers laced in with mine and stroked my father's pale face as he lay on the hospital bed, 17 year old me sitting by his side. We were laughing about something he'd said.
"Thank you for sharing this with me. You didn't have to."
"But I wanted to. You are my life now Bella. I want you to know about me; from 100 years ago and now. I know about your life so I want you to know about mine."
"I love you."
"I love you too baby."
She lifted her head up to mine and grazed her lips over mine. I took her bottom lip between mine and bit it lightly. She moaned into my mouth and pushed her lip further into my mouth. Carefully lifting her from my lap, I lay her down on the couch and hovered over her. My hands stayed on her hips as her casted one wound round my neck and her other ran over my chest. We kissed passionately for a long time before closing our eyes and lying together.
"I want… No, I need to ask you something baby."
Moving slightly, she placed her hand on my pecks and pressed her lips to my chest.
"What is it honey?"
"I love you baby and I will never pressure you into anything. If you can't answer yet then that's alright but I need you to know how much I love you."
"You can ask me anything honey."
"Will you become my wife?"
"What?"
Her body was frozen against mine as I placed the satin box on my chest in front of her face.
"I want you to marry me baby."
Lifting a shaking hand, she cupped the back of the box and stared at the ring nestled inside. I continued to comb my fingers through her hair, giving her time to think about what I'd asked.
"Yes. Yes; yes; yes."
She tilted her head up and brought her lips to mine. Taking her left hand in mine, I slid my mother's ring onto her finger and kissed the back of her hand. Her lips came back to mine quickly and she turned around, straddling my hips. Tucking her hair behind her ears, she bit her bottom lip and looked over me nervously.
"Make love to me."
Leaning up on my elbows, I pecked her lips and then pulled her body
against mine. When I stood up with her in my arms, her legs wrapped around my waist. I carried her to our bedroom and lay her down, our lips still connected. Crawling over her body, she wrapped both arms around my neck. Pulling her bra off her body, I looked down at her and smiled. My lips descended to her right breast as my hand cupped her other. She moaned and gripped at the sheets below us. After sucking at both her breasts, I made my way back up to her lips and started to undo the string on her shorts. With one arm around my neck, her other went to the top of my pants and started to push them down. In a flash, I had taken my pants off and pulled her shorts off her legs. Massaging her thighs, I could feel her heat intensify within her core. Bringing my lips to hers, she slid her tongue into my mouth and tangled it with mine. Her moans vibrated through my mouth as she bent her knees, her thighs opening up. I toyed with the top of her panties before slowly dragging them down her legs and throwing them over my shoulder. Pulling away from her, I admired her body and crashed my lips to hers. Her toes curled into my boxers and pushed them down my legs, her sharp nails tearing holes in the sides. Taking one look down at our bodies, she dropped her head to the pillows and smiled widely up at me.
"Make love to me."
She threw her legs around my waist and pulled herself down on my prominent erection. We both moaned and let our lips collide back together. I lined myself up with her and pushed in slightly. She was tight and wet.
"I love you baby."
"I love you too honey."
Thrusting my hips into her quickly, I brought her lips to mine as she screamed out. She groaned from the pain and clawed at my back with her sharp finger nails. I made it a point to keep her lips moving with mine in attempts of distracting her. As I ran my tongue over her lips she pulled her lips from mine for a moment and kissed along to my ear. Sucking on it a couple of times, she breathed heavily in my ear.
"Make love to me."
Holding her hips tightly, I pulled out of her and thrust back in. We both moaned in unison as I filled her. I moved my lips softly over hers as I continued to move inside her. Her walls were tight and wet when I slid within her. Kissing down her neck, I sucked and gently bit the skin in the nape. She clutched at my shoulder blades, helping her move her hips into mine. Looking up at her face, her mouth was open in a slight 'o' shape, her eyes closed as she took in small breaths. Placing my lips to hers, she smiled into the kiss and pulled herself flush against my chest. The slight change in distance between us made me go deeper into her causing us both to moan into each other's mouths. Sliding my tongue into her mouth, I stroked the top of her tongue with mine and ran it over her palate. She wound her fingers from her broken wrist into my hair and pulled me closer to her. Her walls clenched down on me, pulling me further into her. As we made love for the first time, we both fell over the edge at the same time.
After a year of being together and me proposing, we both knew it was the right time to do the deed. No matter what would happen with her pack or my family, we both knew it wouldn't affect our relationship. Giving ourselves over to the other was the last way of bringing us together. All we had to do now is say 'I do.'
Pulling out of her, I collapsed beside her and she lay her head on my shoulder. We didn't say anything. We didn't need to. With one arm under her, I placed my hand on the small of her back. She had her casted hand tucked in at my side and her other lying over my chest. Our legs were tangled together as I ran little circles with the pad of my thumb on her back.
I listened to her breathing slow before she fell asleep. Holding her to me, I heard her whispering.
'Jacob… No… I love him… Don't hurt him… No… … I love you Edward…"
Her leg hitched up over my thigh and she started grinding into my thigh. My breath caught in my throat as my cock went hard.
"Uh uh uh… Don't stop… please don't stop… Mmmmmmmmmm…"
She reached out and wrapped her fingers around my hard on. I closed my eyes as she started pumping her hand.
"Uh uh uh uh… Feels so good… That's it Edward… I'm gonna… Ohhhh."
With my eyes closed, I felt and smelt her cum on my thigh. Her fingers fell limp from my still hard cock. She fell silent. The pain in my cock was definite. I couldn't lie here with it. For the first time ever, I climbed into the shower and jacked myself off to Bella's face. What I did would be a disgrace back in my day but this was the 21st century. Many boys and men did this. It was only natural. Quickly, I cleaned myself and whipped Bella down. Her quiet moans nearly set me off again but I pushed the thoughts down.
As it was nearly seven in the evening, I knew she'd wake up hungry. She's only had two muffins to eat and this is a werewolf we're talking about. I ran to Forks and picked up her some food for dinner, a tub of ice cream and an apple. When I got back she was still asleep. I put the ice cream into the mini fridge and lay beside my girl. She started to stir as my cold arms encased her. She nuzzled her head into my arm and her eyes fluttered open.
"I got you some food baby. Why don't you take a quick shower and come to the living room baby?"
"Why are you dressed?"
Lifting her head a little, she placed it on my shoulder and gripped my shirt in her fingers.
"I had to go to Forks to get your food. I couldn't go naked now could I?"
"Take your clothes off. You are overdressed."
"And you need to stop thinking about my naked body."
"Why? You're hot as fuck. Especially when you're filling me."
"Just go for a shower and put some clothes on baby. I want you to open your last present but I'd rather you were dressed."
"I'll put some clothes on if you join me in the shower. A compromise."
"I was going to join you anyway baby. Shower sex sounds good at the moment. You have no idea what you put me through when you were asleep."
"What did I do?"
I rolled over her and trapped her hands above her head.
"You came baby. You pumped my cock as you grinded your pussy against my leg and came. You didn't let me get off. I had to do that myself in the shower. Your face was the only reason I could get myself off baby. You have no idea what you do to me."
The smell of her cum hit my nose and I smirked down at her. Her embarrassed smile and deep blush heightened my desire for her. She moaned as I ghosted a hand down her body and to her wet folds. Slipping a finger into her, she sucked her bottom lip into her mouth and groaned loudly. I pumped her slowly before adding another finger. Using her wolf strength, she freed a hand from mine and pulled my lips to hers. Pumping another finger into her, she hissed into my mouth and arched her back.
"So good…"
Her hips moved down onto my fingers as she willed me to go faster.
"More… I want more… Faster honey… Please…"
I couldn't deny her anything and gave her what she wanted. My fingers sped inside her as she began to clench down. Kissing down her body, I took her breast into my mouth and sucked it hard whilst roughly palming her other. She screamed my name in her release as I alternated to her other breast. Leaning over her, I licked my fingers off and moaned at the taste. Delicious.
"Can we just stay here?"
"Not now baby. I really want to give you the last present."
"Take your clothes off then we'll go for a shower."
"You want to take them off me?"
"Certainly."
Piece by piece, she took each of my clothes off and threw them across the room. Lifting her up by the waist, her legs wrapped around my hips as I carried her to the bathroom. After I had switched on the shower and the hot warm stream of water hit us, she pulled herself down onto me. We both moaned as the water slid between our bodies.
By the time our water was running cold, we'd released twice and washed each other's bodies. With one large fluffy towel wrapped around Bella's body, I lifted her up. Stepping back into our bedroom, I lay her on the carpeted floor and pressed my lips to hers. Her knees bent into the air around me as I pushed into her. I lifted my lips from hers and hovered up above her. Speeding up the pace, her fingers clutched at the carpet. Every time I slid into her, her head would fall back, her breath leaving her. Then, when I pulled out of her, she drew in a breath, her head lying flat.
Bringing my lips back down to hers, I held the back of her thighs so I could push into her more forcefully. The ripping of material was faint as Bella arched away from the floor, shattering around me. Plunging deep inside of her, my cum pulsed into her. I held myself deep inside of her as we both came down from our high. She gripped my jaw, her fingers digging into my cheek before she forced my lips back down to hers.
When I pulled back, she stared up at me with a big smile on her face. She moved her hand down to my groin, signalling for me to pull out of her. Begrudgingly, I sat back between her legs on my bum. Throwing herself at me, she knocked me backwards. Her lips took me into her mouth. She sucked me to the back of her throat and I was lost. All I could think about was how amazing my girl was.
My eyes rolled into the back of my head as I trusted my hips upwards and fell over the edge. Bella didn't move of me until I was dry. When she did move, she crawled up my body and pressed her lips to mine. Surprisingly, the towel was still tight around her body. I wrapped my arms around her waist, sitting up and holding her tight against my body. Using my speed, I stood before laying her on our bed. I pulled the towel from around her body, tossing it to the side and quickly slid into her.
We both moaned at the same time as she tensed around me at the sudden intrusion. I brought my lips back to hers. One hand held her hip as the other gripped the headboard. She pulled at my back, controlling my speed in and out of her. Feeling her start to clench down on my length, I started to twitch inside of her. Her head fell into the pillow as she threw her hips against mine, cumming around me. Laying both my arms on either side of her head, I pushed deep into her twice and exploded into her.
Rocking my hips into hers, I listened to her breathing calm before pulling out of her and collapsing at her side. I took her into my arms as she rolled into my side. Combing through her damp hair, I closed my eyes and felt her warm heart beating against my side.
"I want to get married soon."
My eyes darted down to her. She had her eyes closed, her head resting on my shoulder as her left hand traced my abs. The cast felt a little uncomfortable against my skin but I could feel her warmth through it.
"I want to live with you in a house to call our own."
Taking her left hand in mine, I brought her hand to my lips and kissed each of her knuckles. As I thought about what I would say, I played with her fingers.
"I don't know if the people on the reservation would be happy with me living there."
She opened her eyes and looked up at me.
"Who said anything about living on the reservation?"
"You're pack leader now my love."
Sighing, she rolled off the bed and pulled a silk robe on. I watched her tie the ribbon around her waist before walking out of the room. My face fell and I rushed to pull on some clean boxers. Running out to the living room with my speed, I sat on the couch next to my sobbing girl.
With my arms around her, I pressed my lips to her shoulder over and over again. It took a while but she finally stopped crying. Nuzzling her neck, my arms circled her thin body.
"What's wrong baby?"
She curled into my side, laying her hand on my chest.
"I don't want to be pack leader. I want to live with you."
Holding her closer to me, I tilted her head up so that I could press my lips to hers in a quick peck.
"You can do both. We'll figure it out together."
Her eyes watered and a few tears fell from her eyes.
"I don't exactly want to leave my pack but you're my main priority. You're my imprint. No one will ever be more important to me than you are and I want to spend time with you as my husband. My family will take a long time, if never, to come to terms with you being a part of my life. If they can't respect what is a part of me, then I don't care."
I lifted her up and placed her into my lap. Her head lay on my shoulder, her hands tucked between us. One of my arms wrapped around her back, my hand laying on her thigh under the robe, the other running up and down her leg.
"Think about what you want. If you decide to stay, we will. If you want to leave, then I'll follow you wherever you want to go. We'll get married whenever you want. As long as I have you as my wife, I don't mind what we do."
We cuddled together for a while. She pecked my jaw and stood from my lap. Lighting the fire, she lifted our last presents from the coffee table and sat back down next to me. I took the one she held out to me, it was incredibly light considering it was a big box. Slowly, I opened it up and grew confused. There was a piece of paper inside with a picture of an old, wooden piano.
"I want you to have my mother's piano."
Placing the box to the side, I lifted the picture out and pecked her lips.
"Thank you Bella. I love it. I'll play for you any time you want me to."
She pecked my cheek and wrapped her arms around my bicep. I tapped the present from me that she held in her lap.
"I think you'll like this one."
Waiting for her to open it, I combed through her hair a couple of times. She pulled at the paper until she got to the velvet box. Opening it up, she gasped.
Nestled inside the box was a pendant necklace on a silver chain. It consisted of a blue sapphire with a pearl in the middle of it.
"It's both our birthstones. I wanted to get you something that was personal to the both of us. I've given you my mother's ring and my family photos but I wanted to give you something more. Something for us."
"It's beautiful."
She pecked my lips and straddled my lap. Taking the necklace from the box, she held it up to me and I swiftly clipped it round her neck.
"You look beautiful my Bella. Truly stunning. I love you."
Her lips came to mine and she rocked her hips into mine. Lifting her into my arms, I carried her back to bed and we made love over and over before she fell asleep at three in the morning.
