️Warning: This is a smut chapter!
Next day:
Alex had taken to doing nothing the entire day. She had woken up in the afternoon, only to see Nathan was gone. He did leave a note on the nightstand for her, along with some orange juice and breakfast. Grabbing the note, she smiled at the neat handwriting.
I have a pack meeting with the alphas. Should be done by 6 pm. Be ready to go out by then.
Alex suddenly began to get butterflies in her stomach once more. So, she decided to busy herself until the time. Was it weird they had it all planned out? This was something that just happened right? Something you wanted to do. So why did it feel so planned? Okay, she needed to stop overthinking this and just relax.
With Nathan:
Nathan dashed through the woods, leaping over thin winding creaks and the slippery rocks. He dodged and zipped past rotting oak trees and under lowered and snapped branches. Everything blurred into a dizzying blend of earthly colors. The earth was wet and moist under his paws. He jumped into a muddy brook, swollen by the recent rains, soaking up his paws and legs. The woods began to widen and thin layers of fallen pine needles and sentinels disguised the perilous and rocky terrain. He ran beside the twisted creek which mirrored the deep green of the trees. Nathan leaped over a fallen pine tree, which had damned the flow. He opened his to the mouth of the treetops and listened to the trees, as they came to life.
Reaching a rather large section of the river, he stopped at the edge. Tossing his head back, he released a low howl. Two wolves appeared on the opposite side of the river, taking a stand on the edge.
'Hotchner. Eyal.' Nathan greeted. 'You called for a meeting. Here I am.'
'I did.' Eyal replied. 'We have a problem.'
'And it so happens it was your doing.' Hotchner growled, baring his teeth at the alpha.
Nathan frowned. 'What are you talking about?'
'Your little altercation with Elston.' Hotch snapped.
'Aaron.' Eyal gave him a small warning. When it came to ranking Hotchner was the youngest of the three, therefore the lowest ranking alpha between them. That didn't mean anything to anyone outside the three of them, he was still to be respected. 'Elston is the son of Damon.'
Nathan growled at hearing the name. 'And that is the wolf that Derek was going to let Alex mate with!' Damon has been a thorn in their side since before they all became alphas.
'Calm yourself, Nathan.' Eyal sighed. 'Listen the issue isn't that you nearly killed Elston or that you fought for your mate. It's that we have a pack coming this way.'
'Damon was not going to let go that his son lost the chance of uniting the packs.' Hotch added. 'Much less to one of us.'
Nathan shook his head. This couldn't be happening, not now. 'How much time do we have before they get here?'
'Just enough to get our packs ready, give or take two days.' Hoth said. 'My pack is on their way here as we speak.'
'Mine is already on standby.' Eyal added.
Nathan nodded. 'Ty and the others are nearby; they can be here in a few hours.'
Upon agreeing on meeting the next day with the packs, they each went their way. Eyal trotted back to where he had parked his vehicle, shifting back and grabbing the change of clothes in his trunk. Grabbing his phone, he noticed a missed call from Ziva.
'Eyal?'
"Neshama, forgive me I was in a meeting." He wasn't really lying. "Did you need something?"
'Yes, I was hoping you could join me and the team tonight.'
Eyal climbed into his car, placing her on speaker. "What the occasion?"
'I am not sure, Tim just asked we all be there.'
"Alright, I am heading your way now." Eyal did a quick U-turn, speeding down the highway. "Be there in 20 minutes."
'Perfect see you in a bit. Love you.'
Eyal's foot slammed on the break, fumbling to pick up the phone. "What? Wh-Ziva! What did you say? Zi-Ziva?" A growl rumbling at hearing the dial tone. "She didn't. Did she? No." Eyal broke into a wide grin. "She did." Gathering his whit's, he sped off towards her place. He needed to hear it again.
Arriving at the apartment complex, he left the car in the spot he stopped. Jumping out, he tossed his keys to the valet and jogged up the stairs two by two.
Ziva jumped at the pounding on her door. "What the hell?" Opening the door, she found a heavily out-of-breath Eyal. "Wha-" His lips were on hers before she could fully understand what was happening. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she poured her heart into the kiss. It wasn't until her lungs burned with the need for air, that she pulled back. "What was that for?"
Eyal cupped her jaw, staring into her dark eyes. "Say it again."
Ziva pulled him closer, her mouth hovering over his. Looking up at his eyes, she whispered. "I love you." Kissing him softly, Ziva squealed at being lifted into his arms suddenly. "Eyal!"
Turning them around, he pressed her back against the wall, caressing her cheek. "I love you Neshama."
With Nathan:
By the time he arrived back home, it was well past 6 pm. Jogging into the house, he frowned at how quiet it was. "Alex!" Not getting a response, he called out again. Nothing. Panic started rising in him. Running up to his bedroom, he busted in only to find Alex getting ready while dancing around his bedroom. Exhaling deeply, he leaned against the door watching her dance around.
Alex was so in tune with her music; she was shocked to see Nathan standing in the doorway. "Jesus Nathan!"
Nathan chuckled, pushing himself off the door. "Sorry, didn't mean to scare you." Walking over to her, he pulled both headphones out of her ears. "I didn't want to interrupt, you looked happy dancing around."
Alex chuckled. "It's been a while since I have been able to." She took in his appearance, he looked worried. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
"It's written all over your face." Alex wrapped her arms around his neck, playing with hair. "Want to talk about it?"
Nathan shook his head no. "You don't need to worry about anything today. Finish getting ready and let's go for dinner." Giving her a quick kiss, he made his way towards the door. Just as he opened the door, he was stopped by a hand grabbing the back of his shirt.
"Instead of dinner, how about we stay in." Alex didn't know what had gotten into her. All-day she had nervous about mating, but having him here, in the room set her off. Just his scent alone was driving her insane. Her wolf, clawing at her chest, demanding to be claimed.
Nathan turned towards her slowly, his eyes shifting brightly. "Alex, I don't want you to rush into this because of me." Alex shook her head, entwining their hands together. "I had a whole day planned out for us. Make it special." He couldn't deny he would very much prefer and make her his right then and now. Her scent kept getting intoxicating by the minute.
"That's just it, I don't want it to be planned. I want it to just happen." Turning away from him, she bit her lower lip. What the fuck was she doing? He probably went out of his way to have this great night, and here she looked like a desperate bitch in heat. "You know what let's just go to dinner."
Before the door had even closed Nathan wrapped his arms around Alex from behind. One inhale of his musky scent and Alex fought not to turn around. His right-hand drops onto her thigh. Alex couldn't move even if she tried, as if his fingers have short-circuited her mind in the best possible way. Nathan turns Alex around as they stumble onto the bed, his eyes searching hers for any denial, before claiming her lips. Alex smiled, kissing him back as he knew she would. She felt his mouth stretching wider than it should, fighting between grinning and kissing. This was so much better than the first one. Nathan's fingertips are electric, they must be, for wherever they touch her skin tingles in a frenzy of static. As his hands move over her skin, her body had a transitory paralysis, her mind unable to process the pleasure so fast. His head moves around to her left ear and whispers what's coming next turning her on even more. Suddenly Alex's body is off pause-mode and pulls back for a kiss that's both soft and hard. Both of them move in an intoxicated dance of limbs, never making the exact same moves twice. Nathan moved both hands to her hips holding her down as he grinded onto her, smiling at the exotic moan she released.
Alex pulled back just enough to look up into his eyes, getting drawn into them. They reminded her so much of the ocean. Wild and untamed. A being that will never surrender.
Nathan held his hand to Alex's heart and bumped the tip of his nose against hers. "Can you feel what we're doing here? We're building something unique."
"Yes." She could feel it, the connection between them, the overwhelming need to be with him. Nothing else mattered at that moment. There was the physical, the way he went to her head faster than anything she ever experienced. How wonderful he smelled like the forest early in the dawn. But she wanted more from him than just that. She wanted to hear his voice, hear him talk about everything and anything.
Alex felt everything lit up inside. Like a potent mix of hormones was racing through her at light speed. His other hand curled around the back of her neck, bringing her mouth to his. Kissing Nathan threw kerosene on the mix within her. He slid his tongue into her mouth to stroke against her own, before teasing over her teeth and lips. Alex never felt anything so fine. Fingers caressed her breast, doing wonderful things and making her gasp. God, the heat of his bare skin was enough to drive her overboard. She shuffled forward, seeking more, needing it. His hand left her breast to splay across her back, pressing her against him. He was hard. She could feel him through the layers of his slacks. The pressure that provided between her legs was heavenly. Amazing.
"That's it," He murmured as Alex rocked against him, seeking more.
Their kisses were fierce, hungry. His hot mouth moved over her jaw and chin, to her neck. Where her neck met her chest, he stopped and sucked. Everything in her drew tight.
"Nathan—"
He pulled back and looked at her, his eyes dilated. Every bit as affected as she was. Thank God she wasn't alone with the panting. A finger traced a slow path between her breasts down to the waistband of her jeans. His hand slipped beneath the clothes playing with the hem of her panties, he leaned forward and nipped at my neck.
Biting was a very sensitive subject for wolves, you were submitting to another. Giving him your entire being. But the sensation of Nathan's teeth pressing into her skin turned her inside out. Alex shut her eyes tight. A bit from the bite and a lot from the anticipation of what his hand was about to do. He leaned down kissing her where he'd just bitten.
He grasped her hips, pushing her higher onto the mattress. Her hands slid over the smooth, cool black cotton sheet. Alex laid on her back as Nathan swiftly undid her jeans and disposed of them quicker than she was able to blink. The bed shifted beneath her as he knelt above her. Alex felt ready to implode, her heart hammering, but he seemed perfectly calm and in control. Nice that one of them was. Of course, he'd done this dozen of times.
Probably more, what with him being an unmated alpha and all that. Alphas sometimes help unmated females on the last night of their heat. It was nothing, but sex to them. And only to those that didn't want to mate. Maybe Hundreds? Thousands, even?
Alex really didn't want to think about it. It caused a different heat in her to rise.
His gaze rose to meet hers as he hooked his fingers into the hem of her panties. In no rush at all, he dragged the last of the offensive clothing down her long beautiful legs. Nathan smirked he loved a woman with long legs. The urge to cover herself was overwhelming. But she fisted the sheet instead, rubbing the fabric between her fingers. Fingers stroked over the top of her sex before moving on to her thigh muscles clenched tight together. If she wanted this to go any further, she was going to need to open her legs. Alex knew this. Of course, she did. Her toes were curled and a cramp was threatening to start up in her calf muscle from all of the tensing.
"We can go as slow as you want," Nathan said, reading her tension. "Trust me, love."
His warm hand smoothed over her thigh as his tongue traveled the length of her neck. It felt wonderful, but it wasn't enough.
"I need ..." Alex turned her face to him, searching for his mouth. He fit his lips onto hers, making everything right. Kissing Nathan healed every ill. The knot of tension inside her turned into something sweet at the taste of him, the feel of his body against hers. One arm was trapped underneath her but the other she made full use of, touching all of him within reach. Kneading his shoulder and feeling the hard, smooth planes of his back.
When Alex sucked on his tongue, he growled in the back of his throat. His hand slipped between her legs, just the pressure of his palm had her seeing stars. Alex broke off the kiss, unable to breathe. He touched her gently at first, letting her get used to him. The things his fingers could do.
He stopped and put two fingers into his mouth, wetting them or tasting her. Who knows? Didn't matter. What was important was him putting his hand back on her, fast. Giving her a grin, the tip of his finger pushed into her, easing inside just a little. Pulling back before pressing in again. He was careful not to push in too deep.
His gaze lingered on her breasts until finally, he dipped his head, taking one into his mouth. Alex arched her back, pushing his finger further inside. The way his mouth drew on her erased any discomfort she might have. He kept his strokes between her legs and the pleasure grew. Alex tingled in the best way possible. When Nathan did it, it reached the heights of spectacular, stellar.
"God, Nathan." Alex arched against him when he moved to her other breast only to yelp at the bite he gave her. "Watch the teeth!"
Nathan glared at her stopping all movement, although amusement was held in his eyes. "Darling, not sure if you have noticed it yet, but I am a wolf." He leaned down, biting her once more. "I bite."
Before Alex could make a comeback, two of Nathan's fingers worked inside her, a little uncomfortable, but nothing she couldn't handle. Not so long as he kept his mouth on her, lavishing her breasts with attention. His thumb rubbed around a sweet spot making Alex's eyes rolled back. So close. The strength of what was building was staggering. Mind-blowing. Her body was going to be blown to dust, atoms when this hit.
If he stopped, she'd cry. Cry, and beg. And maybe kill him.
Happily, he didn't stop.
Alex felt her wall clamp down on his fingers telling him she was close. Alex groaned as she came underneath him, every muscle drawn tight. It was almost too much. Almost. She swore she was floating, her body limp, satiated for all time. Or at least until the next time.
Opening her eyes again, Nathan was watching her. "Good?" He asked, with a smile of satisfaction.
Alex had barely caught her breath when he rose over her, settling between her legs.
A nod was the best she could do.
He took the bulk of his weight onto his elbows, his body pressing her into the bed. She had noticed he enjoyed using his size to the advantage of both of them. It worked. Certainly, there was nothing boring or claustrophobic about the position. She didn't know why she thought there would be. Lying underneath him, feeling the heat of his skin against hers, it was perfect. And there could be no doubting how much he wanted this. Alex, while waiting for him to push into her, she grabbed him pulling him down for a passion-filled kiss.
Nathan took her mouth in a hard kiss. His hand slid down her side, over her stomach to cup her between her legs. Everything there was still sensitive and no doubt wet. The hunger in his kisses and the way he touched her assured Alex he certainly didn't mind.
He fit himself to her and pushed in. This was it. And suddenly, shit, Alex couldn't relax. The pain was messing with her mind. It felt as if a part of her had been torn off. Being wet didn't matter when your muscles wouldn't give. Alex gasped, her thighs squeezing his hips. Nathan was hard, thick and it hurt like hell.
"Look at me." Nathan whispered. Those ocean eyes of his had darkened and his jaw was set. His damp skin gleamed in the low lighting. "Hello, Love." He hated seeing such pain in her eyes, it caused him a great deal of displeasure. He'd be damn if he allowed her to feel nothing, but love and pleasure.
"Hi." Alex's voice sounded shaky even to her own ears.
"Kiss me." He lowered his face and she did so, pushing her tongue into his mouth, needing him. Carefully, he rocked against her, moving deeper inside her. The pad of his thumb played around her clit, counteracting the hurt. The pain eased, coming closer to being plain old discomfort with an edge of pleasure. No problem. This she could handle.
Fingers wrapped around her leg before sliding down to cup a butt cheek. He pulled her in against him and moved deeper inside her wet heat. Rocking slowly against her until Alex had taken him all. Which was a problem, because there wasn't enough damn room in her for him.
"It's okay," Nathan groaned.
Easy for him to say.
Shit.
Bodies flush against each other as they laid there, unmoving. Alex's arms around his head tight, clinging to him, that she wasn't certain how he was breathing. Somehow, he managed to turn his face enough to kiss her neck, his tongue licking the sweat from her skin. Up, over her jaw into her mouth. The death grip she had on him eased when he deepened the kiss.
"That's it," He growled. "Try and relax for me."
Alex nodded jerkily, willing her body to unwind. She felt so pathetic, here she was the women that always put on a strong front, took the lead on thing, helped put criminals behind bars, fearing to make love.
"You really are exquisite." His big hand petted her breast, calloused fingers stroking down her side, easing her. Alex's muscles began to relax incrementally, adjusting to his presence. The hurt faded more every time he touched her, whispering words of praise.
"This is good," She said, at last, her hands resting on his biceps. "I'm okay."
"No love, you are better than okay. You're amazing." He leaned down giving her a peck on the lips. "Fascinating." Kiss. "Exquisite." Kiss. "Just fucken perfect." Crashing his lips against hers Nathan tilted his head to the side deepening the kiss.
Pulling back Alex gave him a giddy smile.
"I can move?" He asked.
"Yes."
Nathan started rocking against her again, moving a little more each time. Gradually gaining momentum as their bodies moved slickly together. Nathan touched her and kissed her and took his time. Slowly, the sweet heat, that sensation of pressure building, came again. He tended to it with care, feeding her long, wet kisses. Stroking himself into her in a way that brought only pleasure. He was incredible, watching her closely, gauging her reactions to everything he did.
Eventually, Alex clung to him and came hard. It felt like the New Year's fireworks display inside her, hot and bright and perfect. So much more with inside and over her, his skin plastered to her. Alex stuttered out his name as he thrusted hard against her. Nathan sat up grabbing her hips as he thrusted into her, he kept at a pace that she was comfortable with. Alex moaned as he moved within her gasping when he leaned down latching onto her breast. Her hands were still placed on her hips, holding her still.
"Fuck Alex, you feel amazing!" Nathan growled as he sped his movement's drawing out sounds, he didn't know Alex could make. "Come on love, let go." Shifting his hips, he smirked at the loud moan. "Once more for me, please." As she did, Nathan leaned down biting her once more over the mark. Completing the mating and claiming his mate as his.
Alex's scream was cut halfway, as Nathan had smacked his mouth over hers swallowing her moan. With a half groan, half growl his whole body shuddered. Nathan buried his face in the crook of her neck, his breath heating the skin over her bite mark. Giving her a small kiss on the neck, Carefully, he moved off her, collapsing on the bed beside her.
"Come here." He held his arm up, waiting for her to settle on his chest. "Did I hurt you?"
Alex smiled softly, burying her face into his neck. "No, it was perfect." She exhaled softly, closing her eyes and allowing slumber to take her.
Gibbs:
Gibbs woke with a loud groan, gripping his chest. As he attempted to stand, he fell to the ground on his knees. "Jesus!"
"Gibbs?" Lisa sat up, switching the light on. "Gibbs!" Jumping out of the bed, she kneeled beside him. "What's wrong?"
Gibbs gave her a mid-shake of the head. "I don't know."
"What are you feeling?"
"I'm fine." But he wasn't too sure that was the truth. This is the second time it has happened, but this one was stronger. The pain was worse. Falling back against the bed, he took in a few deep breaths. Like before the pain slowly began to fade away. "I'm fine, it's gone." Swallowing the lump in his throat, he steadily stood up. "Go back to bed Lisa."
She grabbed his arm, pulling him back to the bed. "But, Gibbs yo-"
Shrugging her off, he stopped her from following him. "Please. I am fine, just need some air." Walking out to the backyard, he gripped the rails of his porch. Looking out into the woods, he found himself thinking of Luna. "What the hell Jethro." Dropping his head down, he wondered where she could be. If she was alright. He just hoped she hadn't been hunted down. Casting one last glance at the woods, he made his way back inside.
Nathan:
Nathan ran his fingers through her hair, soothing both her and himself. If funny how one moment, one look, everything in your life is turned upside down. After having lost Aaron's mother and rejected by his mate, he never thought he'd ever have his mate in his arms. He knew that although she was his, it wasn't entirely true. In a way, he will always have to share her with the agent. She will always have that longing inside her to be near him. To ensure he is safe and unharmed. He doesn't blame her, he still kept tabs on the woman that rejected her. Running his free hand down his face, he turned his face into her hair. Regardless, she was his now. And even death itself would have to fight him for her.
Ziva:
Ziva walked out of her bathroom, smiling at the man sleeping in her bed. He was face down, both hands were hidden underneath the pillow. When she told him she loved him, she had been preparing for the worse. But when he told her, he loved her as well, Ziva couldn't believe it. That night they had the best night yet. She had the bite to prove it. Who knew he was a biter.
"You going to stand there drooling at me all night?" Eyal grumbled. "Or are you going to come back to bed?"
Ziva chuckled, crawling into his arms. "I wasn't drooling."
Ziva squealed as he turned her onto her back, hovering over her. "So, what were you doing then?" leaning down, Eyal nibbled on her ear, smirking as she squirmed underneath him. "Keep doing that and you're going to wake the wolf."
Ziva leaned up, grabbing his lower lip in between her teeth. "You mean the puppy?"
Eyal growled playfully, wrapping his arms around her and flipping them over. Ziva sat straddled on top of him, her hands flat against his broad chest. "if you think you can do better, I am all yours Neshama." Placing his hands under his head, he grinned up at her.
Ziva smirked. 'Oh yeah, best night yet.'
