Shameless Desires
I cry my eyes out in my bedroom.
I will never forgive Eric for this. Why didn't he just wait until I finished speaking to the man, what was the rush for? Or was the man the danger he was talking about? My brain refuses to believe that. Dan man stared at me lovingly, I sensed that he couldn't wait to take me in his arms. I must have meant a lot to him in my earlier life, the passion in his eyes proved that. Is he perhaps the reason why I have no sexual feelings for Ralph? Was he my lover or so? Ralph feels like my best friend but not a lover.
A soft knock on the room door pulls me out of my musings.
Magda's scent approaches me. "Saray. Come, eat something. The babies need it," she urges softly. I smile, earlier she called my babies, pups just like everyone else. Without thinking, she adopted this, without asking questions. My friend unknowingly comes to embrace our werewolf culture. I get up from the bed and unlock the door. Cautiously she steps inside, her eyes settled on me with concern. "Eric told me he didn't trust the restaurant. There was someone there targeting you," she explains worriedly. "You know how careful Ralph is with you, especially now with the pups," she tries to persuade me.
She's human, there's no point in explaining to her the feeling I got at my encounter with the stranger.
The man was a werewolf and we had a strong connection. He was happy to see me, so he was acquainted with me. I could have dug up my past with his help but Eric disrupted that moment. I nod and sit up in bed. "Yeah, I know. Only it's starting to get oppressive. I need breathing space, I'm suffocating like this," I complain. She places a tray on the bed with a delicious-smelling steak, prepared the way I prefer it. My mouth waters instantly, and hunger returns in full force. Greedily I stuff large pieces into my mouth and devour it in no time. I hear Magda giggle softly and look up at her menacingly. "Would you like to come to the dining room now, Saray? Everyone is worried about you. Elena refuses to eat until you show up," she reveals. "Ivor is making frantic attempts to change her mind but that stubborn child demands to see you before she even brings a bite to her mouth." Beggingly, my friend looks at me.
I slap the sheets off me and get out of bed.
Knowing how stubborn Elena can be, I decided it was time to work off my disappointment. I can't keep grieving over something I can't change. Maybe the Moon Goddess will take pity on me and place the man back in my path. But I know the chances are slim; Ralph will not allow me to come to Human Town again. He stresses too often that my place is next to him in the Kingdom. "Let me get cleaned up and then we can go," I inform Magda. She can barely hide her joy. Rolling my eyes skeptically, I hurry to the bathroom to take a quick bath. In a roomy dress, I reappear in the bedroom.
Magda grabs me by the hand.
"You look so good with your pregnancy. I can't wait to tell Esis the good news," she tells me with shining eyes. "He makes it no secret that he wants pups. From me and no one else," she declares happily. I squeeze her hand. "It's still so early, you've only been married a few weeks. There is still so much to happen," I hint to her gently. I also dread the day Esis informs his mate that he is a werewolf. Magda doesn't seem to have much affection for the werewolf stories she has found online. She dismisses them as fantasies and creations of resourceful producers in California bent on blockbusters.
"Yes, there is indeed still a lot to be done," she notes with a laugh. "He has yet to show up and have sex with me. He's been gone for three days now. Pups don't fall from heaven." Her eyes go blurry, "Saray, I love Esis so much. Our sex is great, I didn't know I was so ravenous. Every time I see him, I want to jump him, have sex with him until I drop dead," she confides. The mate bond is clearly not sparing this human. "And what about Esis then? Does he refuse or shortchange you?" I ask her. Magda's eyes go big. "No. Not at all. Goodness, sometimes I try to hold back. I'm so ashamed of my feelings and think he'll soon think I married him for the sex," she confesses breathlessly. "But he senses me so well. He seems to know exactly when I need him," she continues somewhat anxiously.
I pat her on the back smiling.
Of course, Esis knows when his mate is horny. He smells that a mile away and the mate bond also gives him a lead. I glance at Magda's neck and see that the Alpha's mark is still missing. But I guess that won't be the case for long. "Enjoy it, Magda. When the pups are here, you won't get much time for sex. Then you will be distracted and maybe it will be Esis complaining," I tease her. She shakes her head frantically in denial. "Don't think so, Saray. My husband is so attractive. I think the pups will need to go to bed early so I can have my husband," she sighs. "He's been gone for three days now and look what a mess I am."
Now I can't contain my laughter.
If this was Magda's idea to cheer me up then she surely was successful. In good spirits we walk into the dining room and immediately two arms clasp me around the neck. "Saray!" clamors Elena. "Where were you? Eric said you were in danger and Magda promised you would be here soon. Luckily it worked out well because I had already started a hunger strike".
A burst of laughter erupts from the dining room.
All is good now...
