HELLO EVERYONE! I'm back with an edited chapter 32! The old chapter 32 was a mix of errors and was done without much thought, so instead, I'm updating once again with this one to replace it. :) READ ON!


Chapter: 32

Seven Months Later

Its been seven months Tori and I have been dating... Since my little 'accident'. During those seven months not only have we been happy, but Razor and Greg got married, Samson found a sweetheart of his own, which he is now currently dating, and they all made and moved into their own dens, giving back my privacy in my den... Not that I minded them here. I see them around the pack from time to time though, so we still keep in touch. Today was a special day though... A VERY special day... It was her birthday. Today, I was going to give her a gift that she would never forget... But let's start from the beginning... In the morning.

I woke up earlier than her today, but only because I got a good night's rest. I was training myself to wake up earlier, like an Alpha. I watched her as she slept for a few minutes, then I remembered it was her birthday, and got up as quietly as I could, sneaking towards the den entrance. I almost woke her and her Alpha senses up, but I knew how to sneak for such a big wolf. Of course, I had a few tips from Garth and Kate... Once I got outside, I started to fast walk away from the den. I didn't have much time before she woke up, and wonder were I was... I had to hurry. I couldn't help but notice how peaceful it was this morning... A bit foggy, the morning dew covering everything, a bit chilly, and the smell of rain in the air... I loved mornings like this. I was getting side tracked... I had to focus on this, no matter how beautiful the morning was... For I had the most beautiful wolf in the world sleeping the same den as I was...

Once I was far enough away, I decided to go and get her present first. It's not like I was being a bad wolf by not having her present before paw, I just couldn't keep it in the den because she would see it then! It was nothing big. Well... One of them wasn't at least... Some flowers. Again, it wasn't anything big, just something to make her happy until I gave her the others... A filler, if you will. I wasn't sure what the flowers were called, but I knew they were pretty. A few of them were a beautiful purple, like the flower Kate wore in her head fur the night her and Humphrey were taken to Idaho. The others were yellow, red, etc... The normal flowers that you might find growing in the woods. All together, it was a like a rainbow with flower stems. I carried the flowers back to the den, tip toeing back inside, and laying down on top of her, careful not to wake her. I set the flowers in the corner of the den, making sure I didn't hurt any of them, then positioning myself on top of her, making sure I didn't crush her, tucking her beneath me, covering most of her body with my own. I knew she loved when I made myself her blanket, and I wanted to make this day her best one yet!...

I waited about a half an hour before she started to wake up. I made sure she didn't feel trapped, and when she moved, I moved with her. It wasn't until a few minutes later that she realized something was different. She finally opened her beautiful blue sapphires, and looked up at me, smiling and blushing. I smiled back, not able to hold it back.

"Hey, she's awake... Did the fall hurt?" I asked her.

She tilted her head in confusion.

"The fall? What do you mean?" She asked.

"The fall. You know, when you fell from the heavens?" I said, smiling down at her.

She giggled, nuzzling up into my neck.

"Let me guess... Is it because I'm an angel?" She asked smiling back.

"Nope... Because you are the Goddess of Beauty herself... It's so obvious." I said, kissing the top of her muzzle.

She blushed like mad, trying to cover her face with her paws, only to have me push her paws away.

"Now why would you want to hide such a gorgeous face?" I said, nuzzling her cheek, making her blush even harder.

"Because... I'm not that beautiful..." She said, making me squint my eyes down at her.

She looked up at me, and I stood up, grabbed her, and held her in my arms, not letting any of her touch the ground, making her gasp and squirm a little in shock.

"You're right... You're drop dead, killer, to die for, beautifully gorgeous and sexy..." I said, staring down into her eyes, making her try to cover her face again, but having me deny her actions.

"Oh stop... I know you don't think I'm THAT beautiful..." She said, her face a deep crimson.

"Once again... You're right. I don't think that... I KNOW that... Happy Birthday my Love..." I said, hugging her tight and kissing her neck.

I felt her breathing stop for a second before feeling her bury her face in my neck, crying a little.

"C-Cole... You're so sweet...!" She said, looking into my eyes now, a single tear streaming down her cheek.

I gently wiped away the tear, still smiling at her.

"Not as sweet as you My Dear... No one can top how perfect you are... I would scream it to the world that I'm so madly in love with you, but I'm pretty sure everyone who's still asleep, would not be very happy." I said with a small chuckle.

She shook her head, and buried her face in my neck again, soaking my neck fur with more tears... Not that I minded. I waited for her to stop crying while stroking her back and kissing her neck some more. Eventually, she stopped, and came out of my neck.

"I love you so much Cole..." She said, sniffling a little.

"I love you too Tori... So much... Here..." I said, reaching back into the corner to retrieve the flowers.

"I hope you like them... I couldn't find many, I hope you don't mind what they look like." I said, giving her the flowers.

She opened her mouth a little in awe, and looked at me.

"They're so beautiful Cole... Thank you..." She said, hugging me tightly.

I hugged her back, rubbing her back, kissing in between her ears.

"It was my pleasure Sweetheart... Do you maybe... want to go for a walk?" I asked her, planning to lead her into her next present.

"I'd love to walk with you... I'd walk with you beyond the end of time." She said, pulling at my heart strings.

"You have no idea how that makes me feel... Thank you. Come on..." I said, putting my paw on hers.

She nodded at me.

"My pleasure Lover..."

We started to walk out of the den, and before we got far, she wrapped out tails together, squeezing mine tight, making me squeeze back. I smiled, and kept walk, both of us tail in tail. When we arrived at Tori's next present, we were standing by the waterfall I almost died falling off of.

"Come on, follow me." I told her, walking to a small path that lead up behind the waterfall.

The cave entrance was so well hidden, that I didn't notice it until I walked along this path one day to get a drink. I entered the narrow entrance way to the cave, and had Tori follow me. Inside it was like a rather large den... But in the far back of the cave, you can see a small light, shining through a hole in the wall, which I'd assumed lead to another room. Because of my large amount of patience and will power, I managed break through the thin rock by hitting it with my shoulder, which I regretted a few days later... I told Tori I fell off of my log sled and hit my shoulder on a rock, but only to make sure she didn't find out this spot existed, so technically I wasn't lying... If I had found this before I made my den, I truthfully would have lived here.

"Cole... This place is huge...! How did you find it?" She asked, looking around in awe.

"Heh, I'll tell you about that later... Right now, I want to show you something almost amazingly beautiful as you..." I said, walking over to the covered up entrance to the hidden room. The only thing that stopped Tori and I from seeing what was in there, my log sled.

"Before I do though..." I started, making her tilt her head.

"What? What is it?" She asked in a cute tone that made her seem even more irresistible than she already was...

"There's a price to seeing what's in this room... For once you go in there, you'll come back out a changed wolf..." I said with a smile.

"What do you mean...? What's in there...?" She asked.

"It's a surprise... You don't want to spoil the surprise do you?" I asked her, smiling again.

She shook her head quickly, making me chuckle.

"That's what I thought... Don't worry, it's nothing bad. It all depends how you respond..." I said, grabbing the log sled.

"Are you ready?" I asked her.

"Yes... But what is it?" She asked.

"It's a log sled, obviously..." I said, patting the sled, smirking.

"You know that's not what I meant..." She said chuckling a little.

"I know... But why don't you see for yourself...?" I said, removing the sled from the hole.

She didn't say a word... I saw her jaw drop, and heard her gasp. She was speechless... I smiled. Believe me, I responded the same way... You wouldn't believe what was in this room...


So there you have it! :D Is it better? I'd sure hope so, because I actually spent time THINKING with this version. :3 I know it's longer, but what's your opinion? Review this chapter to tell me how I did. Good, Bad, Wolfy, etc... I know you guys will understand... :) So as always... Until Next Time My Friends...
