Dominic and I walked up to dinner after we sat around bullshitting for a few hours. I’d have to say having my brother back felt good. We had a combined lunch and dinner on the full moon. The kids would stay with the older folks tonight Sarah and Shelly supporting a slumber party after dinner. They would have their own little showing to their Luna after dinner. She didn’t know about it but the pups and the younger teens who had been following her around like a little fan club had been working on something special. I sighed. My mate was going to cry.

Tonight My Luna would serve her people. When I steered Dominic to the tables away from the line he raised a brow at me. “We are old school around here,” I stated simply. He groaned, ”I’m not getting dinner tonight am I?” he mumbled knowing our mother’s pack traditions. “That brother is the bed you made, maybe wait and see if she has mercy for you?” I offered. He sighed, nodding in agreement as he eyed our table where Milly sat with the Beta pair. The man looked like a nervous teenager who had never talked to a woman before. “You know Dom, I always found it telling you only ever lost your game with your mate how bout you see if she’ll let you sit with us.” I teased. He considered for a moment and I swear, a blush rose to his cheeks beneath his five o'clock shadow. Thumbs hooked in his front pockets he strode forward. He bent low whispering in Millie’s ear, his lips almost touching the shell of her ear. She shivered, her demeanor shifting looking up at him, hesitation clear across her stunned face. Her face found resolve before she nodded across from her. He bowed his head immediately obeying the boundaries she created. I smiled. My mate, she moved mountains.

I took my seat between Blake and Millie. The space next to me on Blake’s side was painfully empty. My eyes raised in search of her. She bustled out of the kitchen, arms balancing trays of plates overflowing with food that smelt like the goddess created it herself. Shelly and Vanessa were the first to receive followed by the pups. She eyed Salis as he eyed her back and she set a plate in front of him respecting her elders before doing the same to Gunner with a more submissive action. Silas smirked as he picked up his fork, nodding. I was still going to watch him closely.

She came up to me and Millie setting the last plate in front of her friend. I snaked my hand gingerly around her hip pulling her into my lap grabbing the empty trays and putting them on the table. I stared into her eyes. How are you I asked. She cocked her head “I’m fine but if you want yourself or anyone else to eat tonight you need to let me up!” she growled. “Hmm I like it when you are feisty,” I teased. Blake groaned beside me, Whinnie smacked him in the arm and told him to get over it. Dominic and Millie were peeking at me. I rolled my eyes before checking her back. The dress was a long flowing emerald halter neck, wide open there exposing her tattoo proudly, her hair twisted up in a bun a few tendrils escaping, her tattoo on full display I chuckled noting her boots. Finding her mostly healed, her wolf at work, I pulled her chin toward me kissing her deeply and passionately. She matched my fervor, her tongue caressing mine. Elijah whooped a few cheers followed. Blake involuntarily groaned. I gave her one last peck after nearly eating the tonsils out of her throat before I let her escape me. Once the rest of the pack was served she set a plate of rabbit, deer, potatoes, and roasted veggies before me and the betas. She looked at Millie ``Do I give this poor sap a plate?” she asked. Millie eyed Dominic and smirked “I guess you can, he’s been behaving.” she looked at Dominic who was giving her moon eyes, like she was the moon to his earth. Aurora bowed her head to the future elder,sauntering off for one more plate as I watched her hips sway with a different kind of hunger. The plate in front of me was temporarily forgotten.

She shuffled around the table before moving back into the kitchen. She returned with a nearly equally large plate as mine. Dominic bowed his head as she approached. She looked down at him nodding before gently setting it in front of him.“Come here love,” I cooed. The pack was delving deeply into their plates. She sauntered around the table as I pulled her into my lap. Picking up a leg of rabbit and putting it to her lips. She was my Luna and her needs would always come before mine, she was the nourisher of the pack and I was the protector, yet so was she? I paused and our eyes met. Her mouth reached for the offered morsel as I found myself transfixed on her sinful pouty lips. My mind full of naughty images. She wrapped her beautiful mouth around the bone and I pulled it out of her mouth, the flesh coming clear off the bone. Her lashes fluttered, looking up at me. There was something there I couldn’t read. She was up to something. I took a small bite from the plate before offering her more. She nodded in understanding she would not be leaving my lap. I ate and fed her from that same plate she had given me. “Love, be careful making the food so good or Shelly may retire.” I jested while complimenting her. She about chocked on her sip of water. “Shelly’s abilities far outweigh my own,” she rebutted.

Whatever that mischievous spark was, was still there ‘What are you plotting wife?’ I spoke inside her mind. ‘Oh you’ll see, just promise me you’ll save my punishment for when you catch me,” she insinuated glancing over her shoulder that glint brighter for the briefest of moments. ‘You tease too much,’ I growled back gripping her hips tighter to my lap making it impossible for her not to feel the hard length of me through the slip of a dress she was wearing. She glanced around at the occupants of the table unaware of the carnal thoughts we were exchanging in our minds. We had briefly caught Dominic's attention before he turned back to Millie. Her eyes looked back at me toying with the fork. ‘I think with what I have planned you may want to spank me to teach me a lesson,’ she purred, shifting in my lap, forcing me to stifle a groan. I raised a brow at her, she had a catlike self-satisfied grin on her face. We must have been locked in that gaze for too long of a moment, as I assessed her letting out a low growl without realizing it. The entire table looked at us. She smirked as she turned back to her water. Dominic chuckled. “Careful Sis or you are gonna start this hunt off early if you aren’t careful” he warned her with an amused grin crossing his features. Aurora shrugged. Millie shared a knowing glance with her producing her own smirk making it obvious she was in on Aurora’s plans. Dominic narrowed his eyes at her. To my other side, Whinnie was biting her lip and Blake glared at her. When my eyes met hers she just shook her head letting me know I would get nowhere with her. Fuck, my little angel was not so innocent. I dropped the conversion but the wheels still turned trying to grasp what she could possibly have planned.
