Chapter 43- Wine and crackers

**Hopes pov**

It was still early when we came back to the packhouse. Callum kept asking me if I was sure that I wanted to go on with the ceremony, we could still cancel it. But now more then ever, I wanted to do this. I had my mom and Maya here, it couldnt be more perfect.
When do the guests arrive? I asked Callum when we were back in our room.
“ I’m guessing under the afternoon, some comes a long way so they will spent a night or two. The dinner is planned to start with welcome drinks at 6 pm. He answered, walking up to me.
“I will leave you about three hours before that. Reece and some of the guys, insisted to have some drinks and play some pool. I think he has a few of the other Alphas in on it as well..kind of a bachelor party I guess” He smiled and planted tiny kisses on the blue side of my face, sending tingles all over my body.
“That means we have some time for ourselves? Right?” I turned my face a little and took his lips with mine. My body lit up in an instant. I was so hungry for him. I nibbled his bottom lip, making him give me entrance to his mouth. I could feel him fisting my shirt behind my back and that fueled my desire. I grab the collar of his and start to back against the bed, pulling him with me.
“ Hope..are you sure?..you are hurt..” he whispered between the kisses.
“I am..and I need you to make me feel better..”
That was all he needed. He carefully sit my on the bed, help me take my blouse and bra, then pushed me into a lying position before getting rid of my pants.
“I missed out on my favorite breakfast today..” He starts kissing my foot, working him self up my leg. I feel his hot breath as he meets my panties and I am about to lose it, I need him so bad..
He rises his head and looks me in the eyes, the lust and desire I see in his, mirrors the ones in mine.
“While I still can impress you..let me show you what a werewolf can do” He says, nibbling the fabric in his way.
I get a little nervous..I love Beacon, but in bed, I want Callum..atleast for know, I dont know what will happen after the unbinding..there will be four of us I guess?
“Callum…” I whine.
“Shhh, just look.” He holds his hand up and I see claws growing out. He doesn’t shift, just his hand. He then hook my panties with his fingers and the claws shred them like a knife to butter, leaving me naked and exposed in front of him.
“Thats better..” he says before I feel his hot wet tongue attacking me. He eats me like he is famished. His tongue is working magic with soft movements around my most sensitive spot while his lips and mouth are kissing and sucking the rest of my core.
“Callum..it feels so good..I can’t..I…..”
He added a finger and that pushed me right over…*He didnt even get the time to growl this time*..I thought to myself
“Come here..” I say and drag him on top of me..noticing, he is still dressed. I try to help him out of his clothes, but due to the pain in my shoulder and my ribs..it all turns in to a very unsexy moment..
“Hey..its ok..we dont need to do this now” Callum says and traces kisses up and down my neck..making me relax.
“But that’s not fair..” I whisper
He chuckles before coming up to my ear and whispers right back.
“When I unbind you tonight..well..we won’t be leaving this bed for a while..I am sure I'll be satisfied. I feel a warm blush creep up on my cheeks..I forgot about that..I was to become a horndog! He gives me a real deep and long kiss before he looks me in the eyes.
“I love you so much Hope, you know that right? And I will love Luna just as much..just the same as Beacon loves you. I know it sounds weird and its confusing..but when we reach that point, it will come naturally.”
“Will we have a foursome every time we make love?” I just had to ask..
He barked out a laughter. “ Oh my..No my love, we will not.. We can push our wolves back, just as we can step back if they would want some time alone”
“Oh..so..they will want to..hrm..eh..Will they want to spend time together?..Alone?”
“Probably..Yeah, I just got a very vivid picture from Beacon. They will absolutely want to be alone!” He chuckled

At 3pm Callum left, to meet with the other guys…men..whatever.. and a few minutes later my door burst open and Cathy, Maya and my mom came in.
Cathy were carrying a lot of stuff. Makeup, hairstyling products and a couple of more bags. Maya and mom had a couple of wine bottles and glasses, some snacks and what I suspect was a schnapps bottle.
“Wow, how drunk are you going to get me?” I say and stare at the bottles
“You can have a glass of wine, two at the most. The strong stuff is for me, im a wolf remember “ Cathy winks at me
We sat down around the coffee table with our glasses and it felt so good having them all here. Maya and Cathy chatted away about Europe, makeup and clothes and I just listened, content, and I could see my mother smile in the corner of my eye.
“So, I have to ask..What do you think about Reece?”. Cathy asked and took a sip of her wine. A blush found Mayas cheeks and I couldnt stop a giggle.
“Wow, I think that is the first time I see your cheeks in that colour” my giggle became a laugh. Maya glared at me, but with a smile of her own on her lips.
“Well..he is hot, we can all see that..and he is polite, sweet and generous. He asked me several times at the mall if I wanted anything, he held up doors and..you know, sweet stuff.” A roaring laughter came from Cathy and we all just looked at her. “I never thought I would live to hear Reece described as polite and sweet” she howls.
“Be nice Cathy, he is her mate after all” I laugh before I could stop myself
“My what?..” Maya looked confused
“Your mate, your soulmate picked by the Goddess herself! Or actually, she picked you to him..or her brother did. I’m not really sure how it works when a human and a wolf get paired up” Cathy answer in my stead. The next thirty minutes we tried to explain the concept of mates to both Maya and my mother. There was a lot of questions, both about mates and the wolves. Many reminded me of the once I asked Callum when I first learned about them.
There was a knock on the door before Greta came in. She brought us some cheese, green grapes and salty crackers. She told us that many of the guests had arrived and were settled into their rooms on the second floor. It was a total of sixteen ranked members from our allied packs, a few took their family members with them. They all had guards as well and those were to settled in the guestrooms in the back of the house on the first floor.
“Have you seen Kevin? Do you know if his brother could come?” I asked her, just remembering I hadn’t checked in with him since the hospital.
“ Yes, Kevin told me he would have a guest staying with him in his apartment" She answered and said if there was anything we needed, Cathy could just link her, and then she left. After that, we had to explain the concept of linking to mom and Maya as well.
“So, Kevins brother is coming?” Cathy said annoyed.
“Yes, have you met him?” I ask, my interest peeked.
“I have, and I loathe the mutt..he wasn’t here for long but James was always a real jackass to me” she explained
“Well, I’m sure he has grown up since then. If Kevin has so high thoughts about him, he has to be a good guy right?” I say and give her a smile to erase the sulk expression on her face. We kept talking, drinking and the cheese and crackers were eaten quickly. I was starting to get a little nervous, this was really happening. My mother took my hand and and I felt the familiar pattern her thumb drew to calm me.
“Did you feel it?..Luna leaving you when I was born?” I asked her
She sat quiet for a while, thinking back before answering
“ No..I can’t say that I did..maybe on some level I felt different, but I had just become a mother so my hormones were all over the place.” She gives me a reassuring smile. I leaned against her and for the first time I felt her scent and I smiled at the soothing sensation.

“I think its time we get you dolled up, it is going to take some skills covering that bruise up” Cathy said. She and Maya got up and started to rummage through all the bags, bickering a little about which products to use.
“Tell me about the vampire, what was his name?” Maya said while taking a strand of my hair and wrapped it around the curling iron
“Ambrogio..his name is Ambrogio..”
