Chapter 14- The Cabin
*Clay Clay! I was yelling outside. Clay they are coming! I need you! *
*Clay stepped out of the cabin. He grabbed me and led me inside. “How many are there?” He asked. *
*“I don’t know!” I was screaming. *
Before I knew what had happened, it was just me and Clay back at the cabin. I shook my head to get rid of the thoughts. Clay looked a bit shaken as well.
“Are you ok Clay?” I asked him reaching out to grab his hand.
“Uh.. yeah. Gracie what just happened?” He looked at me very confused. I am not sure what happened. Did he go into my dream world with me? “You were, well.. yelling. And I pulled you into the cabin. It felt real but I knew it wasn’t.”
“You felt that?” I looked at his eyes. He looked lost, as if he was trying to solve a puzzle.
“Uh.. yea.. has that happened to you before?” Clay ran his fingers through his hair. I bit my lip trying to stay focused but remembering how we had just mated with one another earlier today. Today alone seemed to feel like a year not just a single 24 hours.
“Well, I have never had them while I was awake. I am usually asleep. But I have dreamed of these woods since I turned 21. Every night it is the same thing. Running from something, leaves hitting me, feeling like I need to get somewhere.” I thought about how the dreams had started so simple and weird but had gotten more intense over time. Maybe they were preparing me for this moment.
“Did you ever see the cabin?” Clay asked intrigue now washing over him.
“I haven’t. But as soon as you said it, I knew this is where my dream takes place.” Clay was nodding his head trying to comprehend everything. That’s the moment I realized we were still standing on the porch steps, naked.
“Uh. Clay, can we go inside?” I asked Clay. He looked at me, realizing the same as I did that we were just naked outside having this interesting conversation. He nodded and opened the door.
The inside of the cabin was everything you would dream of. It reminded me of all those Instagram posts of little cabins that people lived in. They always looked so peaceful.
As I looked around, I could tell this place belonged to Clay. It had big brown sofas in the sitting area and a room off to the side with a giant king size bed, which was a mix of marron and brown. The wooden floor was covered with a giant bear rug that sat in front of a fireplace. The place looked like you were stepping into a dream come true.
“Clay this place is magical.” I could feel him come up from behind me and wrap his arms around me.
“When I was younger my grandfather use to bring me out here. It was always my favorite place. After he died, I made it my own.” I could sense Clay’s admiration for his grandfather and sense his pride over this place.
“I love it.” I turned around in his arms coming to face him. I leaned up and kissed him. This was the moment I knew that life was finally making sense to me. That everything I had learned over the past 24 hours was real and not a lie. But instead, was exactly where I fit. My whole life I had searched to belong and here in Clay’s arms was exactly where I felt at home.
**Clays POV **
I had never brought anyone to my cabin. However, it felt right with my mate by my side. It felt like the perfect place with her next to me. She leaned up and kissed me. It overtook my senses. I longed to touch every inch of her again and again. I couldn’t believe how powerful the mate bond was between us. I wanted to just live in my bed naked with her.
I roamed my hands over her unable to pick a spot because I just wanted to feel each part. I let my lips follow my hands so that I could taste every last inch of her body laying in front of me. Her skin was soft and I enjoyed how smoothly my hand and lips trailed over her body.
I heard her moan as I got close to her opening. Nipping her thighs with my teeth, smelling her arousal reach its peak. I let my tongue slip in between her folds and dove deep within her center. It was amazing how sweet she tasted. I could stay here all day just tasting her, enjoying the wetness as it covered my mouth.
“Clay please” Gracie begged as I continued to taste her. “Clay let me have you.” She pleaded with me.
I moved my body up and let myself slip inside her. Feeling the tightness and wetness inside made me want to find my release almost instantly. I moved my self over her. Pulsing deep inside of her.
“Oh Gracie.” I heard myself moan. We moved together. I could feel her hands roaming all over me. I could feel her as she was getting closer to the edge.
“Clay.” Gracie screamed in pleasure as she came. I could feel the tightness around me as she came and shuttered under me. I quickly joined her.
I landed on top of her. Holding my weight up by my arms. Gracie was so beautiful. I looked into her eyes and realized she was both beautiful on the outside and the inside. She had a heart of gold, and I was so thankful the moon goddess had chosen me to take care of her.
I got up from the bed and went to grab a cloth to help her clean off. She was looking at me perplexed, as if she had a ton on her mind but was unsure of what she wanted to say.
“What is it Love?” I asked her. Loving my new nickname for her and trying to use it as much as possible.
“Clay, I am..” She looked sheepishly away from me. I was unsure of what she wanted to say.
“What Gracie?” I asked her while looking in her eyes once more. She looked as if she was about to giggle and I was not sure if I was reading it right. “What’s wrong?”
“Well, I am hungry.” We both started to laugh. Her laugh was sweet and sounded like musical notes. I found I could listen to it all day long without feeling like time was passing.
“Oh Love. We can get you something to eat.” I looked at her and then at the clock. “Oh my goodness! It is way after dinner. I am sorry Grace. We should have went home for dinner.”
“Clay it is fine. I really enjoyed our little trip here.” She leaned up and kissed me. We both sat on the bed naked. “But… we can head back now to eat.” I laughed. Unlike I have ever laughed before. We sat there together laughing. I laughed harder than I had in a long time.
“Let’s go!” I said between breaths and headed for the door. I watched her change into her wolf before my eyes. She was the most beautiful creature I had ever seen. Her fur was white like snow but it glowed as if the sun was shining on it but it was late. Her birthmark sat in gold above her right hind leg. Her eyes were green as a bright shade of grass. I loved to watch her transform in this beautiful wolf right before my eyes.
*I will race you back*. I heard Gracie come through the mind link.
*Oh no little wolf. You just stay right by me this time. We aren’t in a rush*.
I heard her laugh.* Except that I am starving. *
*Alright fine. We will run. *
With that she took off faster than I have ever seen a wolf run. Apparently, it was one of her golden wolf powers, but it was amazing to watch. It was also a bit humbling to know how she outrun me. We ran the way back. She slowed down so we could run together.
