Chapter 64

Lexi

I spent the evening with Luther, his family and my guardians. We had a small family dinner and then played games. Luther took me out to make sure the wolves had food and water. We noticed the wolves didn’t growl when I approached and their eyes weren’t as bright red as before. I sent out a calming glow just before we left and told them I would check on them in the morning. Somehow I felt like they understood me. Or at least understood that I wasn’t going to hurt them.

When we returned to the packhouse Luther took me up to his room. Well, it is more like our room. Most of my clothes,my school books, laptop, and all my bathroom items are here. I have pretty much moved in and Luther was happy with it. He told her he wanted to feel like this was her home. And it does feel like home. Luther feels like home. I don’t feel like this with Aiden. With Razor yes. Not Aiden. It is weird. But that is a situation to deal with another day. Luther took a shower first then me.
When I came out of the bathroom dressed in my pajama shorts and tank top I noticed the lights were dimmed and candles were lit. “ Luther, honey. What’s going on?” I asked. Luther stepped over to me wearing nothing but his flannel pajama pants. His incredible chest naked for me to view every inch of his six pack abs, defined pecs, and the narrow trail of hair that goes from the bottom of his navel down to under the waistband of his pants. I envision using my tongue to follow the path to find out where it ends.

I am pulled from the sexy visions when Luther answers “ I know this isn’t the best date in the world. But it is a start.” I see a tray of chocolate covered strawberries, graham crackers, marshmallows, chocolate squares and popcorn. And a small bucket of ice that has water and sodas in it. He has the fireplace going and there are pillows on the floor in front of it. There is soft music playing over his surround sound speakers. Luther walks up to me and takes my hand. “ Dance with me,” he says. I nod as Luther places his hands on my waist and pulls me to his rock hard chest.

I can feel his warmth sinking into me as I wrap my arms around his neck. I tilt my head to look up at his eyes. I know I will never get enough of looking at them. We don’t talk as we slow dance in the middle of the bedroom. We don’t need to. Luther may not think this is a good date, but I think it is perfect. “ Luther, this was a wonderful idea.” I said. “ It was the best I could do for now. You deserve to have flowers and candle lit dinners.” he said, almost looking embarrassed. I place my hand on his cheek “ Luther, I don’t need any of that. I have everything I need right here with you.” I said before I gave him a quick kiss on his lips.

I watch as Luther’s eyes turn dark “ What about me? I helped.” Diesel whined. I smile “ Hi Diesel. I could never forget about you, my handsome wolf. Come here.” I told him as he leaned down. This is the first time I have talked to Diesel through Luther. I intended to give him a quick kiss but Diesel had other ideas. He ran his tongue along my bottom lip. I opened for him, sliding my tongue to meet his. He twists his tongue with mine fighting for control. I give it to him. Diesel pulls back and places his forehead on mine. “I have wanted to do that since I first saw you.” Diesel growled.

“ Thank you for the kiss and tonight. I love it.” I said. “ Anytime. I am going to give control back to Luther in a second. I just need to tell you this. I don’t get to talk to you often, not that I don’t want to, because I don’t need to. Luther and I are on the same page when it comes to you. We are always going to be here for you. Whatever you need. It may be early for you but I knew I loved you from the start. And I will love your wolf just the same. I can’t thank the Goddess enough for giving us you.” he said with a smile. I could see in his eyes he meant every word. “ Diesel, thank you and Luther for accepting me for who I am. Even when you thought I was just an interesting human. And then you both for standing by my side as we figure out who I really am. Even before I knew about shifters and the mate bond I knew in my gut Luther was a good man. I could have hand picked better than you two. I just hope either Aiden turns his shit around or my next mate is half as good as you.” I said, speaking from my heart.


Luther came back and said “ We will always be here for you.” I could feel his hard length pressed against me. I have felt it many times over the weeks but he has never once complained or tried to pressure me. I helped relieve it once in the shower but I haven’t touched him since. I do need to help him again. I know he hasn’t cheated on me to get relief. I would smell it and from what I understand even though we aren’t marked I would have felt it too. It can’t be easy for him. I was told that when wolves find their mate every instinct in them drives them to fuck and mark thier mate. It is like a frenzy takes over them. But because of the prophecy and me not being ready Luther has been more than patient with me.

“ Luther, does it ever bother you to wait?” I asked, pointing to his engorged dick that is making his sleep pants tent. “ I could lie to you and say I’m fine but I’m not. Is it hard to wait? Yes. Do I want you naked under me screaming my name as I plow into you? Fuck yes. But the cold showers and jacking off to the memory of the last time in the shower helps. Diesel understands so it is easier. We know there is a reason. And that waiting until your birthday is important. We trust in the Goddess. When the time comes I am going to be inside you every chance I get.” Luther whispered as he nipped my earlobe.

I feel myself getting wet just from his words. Luther pulled away and I saw his eyes switch again. “ I can smell you, my sweet mate. I don’t want to lose control, so let’s have some snacks and get to bed. You have more training tomorrow and need rest.” Luther said. And that is what we did. I spent the rest of the night in his arms as we ate and slept. Being with Luther is very different than being with Aiden. I don’t feel the closeness that I feel with Luther.It is making me question the bond we have. I know it is weakening. But I don’t feel sad about it like I should, with the exception of losing Razor.

The next morning after breakfast Luther took me to his mom’s office. They thought I would be more comfortable there for the mediation thing they were going to teach me. I sit on the couch facing Morris and Christine, Luther next to me. “ So how do we do this?” I asked. “ Well, Luther, I think you should go help your dad prepare for the Alpha visiting on Monday. Not only because I think you being here will make it hard for Lexi to concentrate but because it is part of your training to know about the other packs.” Christine said. I don’t want to admit it but Luther being this close I will focus on that and not what I’m supposed to do.

That is why during studying and training we have a no mates rule after the first time Luther was with me training and all I could do was stare at his naked chest and missed a punch to the chest that I was supposed to block. Reluctantly Luther left the room. “ Lexi, we would like your permission to record this session.” Morris asked. He then explained to me that they wanted to capture if I said anything, my glow changed or my wolf made an appearance, they can show me better than try to describe it to me and they can show the other Elders. I agree.

“ The first thing you need to do is get comfortable. You can lay on the couch if you want or sit on the floor.” Morris said. I chose the couch since I didn’t know how long this would take. The idea of sitting on the hard floor didn’t appeal to me. Morris told me to close my eyes and try to clear my head of everything but my wolf. Since I don’t know what she looks like they told me to focus on the idea of her and the voice I heard in my dreams. I try to tune everything but Christine’s voice as I breathe deep. I concentrate on relaxing my muscles so I lay limp as an overcooked noodle.
