Lycan's Mate (His Claim) Chapter 29

Fiona's POV

I let out a soft sigh, staring down at the same spot my wound was supposed to be but on him instead. He was right, all that was left were faded out scars that were the same length as my own. I knew that they would disappear completely within a matter of days, if not less, but mine might last a longer period of time than that. I had to admit, I would really give anything to heal myself as quickly as a werewolf can at this very moment. The pain wasn't anything I couldn't handle, but I hated seeing my mate this way. It wasn't his fault and yet he wouldn't listen. So all I could do was just sit there, trying hard not to let out a cry of pain as the cool night air stung my skin, causing my wound to burn uncomfortably

Next thing I knew, I noticed Blake lean forward, his eyes fixated on the claw marks that healed more than I expected for them to. The blood had stopped oozing out at this point, but the marks were still a bright shade of red, indicating that the wound was still fresh and had a long healing process to overcome before it could fade away completely

Without a single word, he placed his hands on either side of my arms as his face grew inches away from the wound. What in the world was he doing? As if answering my thoughts, he pressed his lips against my chest, a low hiss escaping my lips as I felt a large surge of pain erupt throughout my entire body. The pain was so strong that my body literally froze as I fought out a scream that was begging to be let out. I knew I couldn't now. If I did, my dad would only come rushing to my aid and discover what I now had on my chest. Things wouldn't be nice after that

Suddenly, I could feel the pain begin to dwindle. I opened my eyes, which I had not noticed were tightly shut the second his lips connected with my skin, and I looked down at him. He kissed every single inch of the wound, brushing his lips over my skin which only left a pleasurable burning sensation where they touched. The longer he kissed, the more the pain vanished. The only thing left in its place was the mind boggling sensation that was starting to make my hormones stir deep inside me. I pulled back my head, letting out a small moan as the sensation overwhelmed me to the point where I just wanted to grab Black and kiss him right then and there. Yeah, I seriously had to calm myself down before things got out of hand again

His body froze the second I moaned, but with a deep breath, he continued with the process until he was finished. He pulled back, analyzing the wound before his eyes met my own. I was now panting, one because of the pain that endured my entire body in the beginning and two because of the pleasure this guy seemed to give me by a single touch

He smiled up at me before he grabbed the shirt that was still lying beside me on the bed and began to wrap it around my shoulder. He was careful not to cause me any pain, not that I had any left because the only thing that was pulsing through my veins was adrenaline, which helped a lot really. Once he was done, he placed the bra strap back in its place and pulled the large shirt over my head. The way he did it was so tender that I couldn't help but smile down at him. Before I knew it, I was leaning forward and brushing my lips against his forehead, pulling him towards me in the process. His breath hitched at his throat, but he still adjusted himself so he could rest his head against my stomach while wrapping his arms around my small frame. I rested my head against his own, running my fingers through his soft hair. Feeling his body tremble beneath me, I couldn't fight the small smile that spread across my lips. It was quite amusing how much of an effect we had on each other, but I wouldn't want it any other way.We stayed like this for a few minutes before I felt him pull away. Reluctantly, I pulled my arms away from him as well and leaned my hands on either side of my hips. He still remained in a crouched position as he gazed up at me

"Do you feel better?"

I nodded.

"A lot better." I paused, a question immediately popping in my head.

"Why did you do that?"

He shrugged, looking around my room before settling his eyes on me once more.

"Just an experiment, I guess you can say."

I rolled my eyes.

"Some experiment," I retorted playfully, earning a mocked glare from him

I carefully moved away as I laid myself on my bed. He followed in sync with me, lying his body on his left side to face me. He leaned his head against his left hand as his other arm lied lazily around my stomach. Without me even realizing it, I squirmed my way closer to him, letting out a soft sigh as I rested my head against his warm chest. I knew werewolves had a slightly warmer temperature than humans and I should be extremely hot by now from his touch, but due to the weather dropping more and more with each day that passed, I found it very comfortable.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, my parents want to meet you."

My body froze. Wait, did I just hear him right?

"They do?"

He nodded, running a hand through my hair before he placed it back on top of my mid-section

"But, didn't I already meet your dad? Isn't that enough?"

He chuckled, planting a kiss on my forehead.

"Yes, but he wants to meet you more properly, my love. Especially my mother. I will warn you though, she might bombard you with many questions.

"Yay…." I said sarcastically

My head snapped up to his and a small blush filled my cheeks.

"Oh….well….okay then."

"Don't worry, that's a way of showing that she cares. And she wants to meet the mother of her grandchildren."

"There's no rush in that, Fiona. My wolf and I want you to feel as comfortable as you can while you're with us. Even if we have to wait a few years before we can even mark you."

"Will your wolf like that?

He chuckled, shaking his head.

"Not one bit. But he loves you enough to wait, even if his animal instinct tells him to mark you here and now."

I nodded in understanding.

"So, when do they want me to meet them?"

"This Friday night. The whole pack will be there as well."

I jumped up, surprised to find that no pain filled my body by the action.

"What?" I silently shrieked, my eyes widening in horror at his words.

"The whole pack? I thought it was only them." Tomorrow was Friday. I needed time to prepare for this.

He leaned against the pillows, gazing up at me with a sincere smile on his lips. My mind couldn't help but wonder what it would feel like to kiss those lips at this very moment. but they thought it would be the perfect time to meet the rest of the pack as well. They all know who you are, but they have been consistently asking my father when it was that they were going to personally meet you, so my father arranged for this yesterday. I was going to tell you today in the library, but that whole rogue situation turned up." I noticed how his eyes glanced down at my chest, a swirl of emotions running through their dark depths before they snapped back to me, the small smile still on his lips.

I shrugged my shoulders, staring out the window as I thought about meeting the whole pack all at once. I mean, I had already encountered a good majority of them in school, but who knows how many more people there actually are in Blake's pack. Being around a few werewolves was one thing, but being around an entire pack filled with powerful, monstrous beasts in their human forms was just frightening. It's not that I was scared of them. I was actually surprised that I had not felt too much fear when I had learned about Blake and his pack. But just the thought of seeing the people I would one day lead was nerve-racking. I know Sara had told me today that I was perfect for the Luna position, but I still had many doubts of the goddess's decision in making me, a mere human, a future Alpha's mate.

As if sensing my now fast beating heart, he wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me up against him, my body now facing away from him as my back flushed against his front side. The contact made me shiver and blush once more. Man, was I ever going to stop doing that around this guy?

"Don't worry sweetheart, everything will be fine. I'll be right beside you the entire night and so will Sara, Anthonio, and Black.

I let out a soft sigh, feeling my body relax. I guess it will be better having them there, especially him. He always made me feel serene whenever I was with him, despite the many stares we would receive from the other pack members in the school everyday. So I guess it will be fine

"So?" he questioned after a long moment of silence

I nodded.

"Sure. Friday will be nice. I just have to tell my dad first.

"No need for that my love.

I turned my head so I can get a better look at him.

"What do you mean?"

He chuckled.

"Black had a nice chat with your father earlier and he had mentioned this to him. I was actually surprised when your father said yes to you going. He even said that he approves of me."

"Really?" Wow, I really did sound like a girly teenager girl when I said that

He laughed softly, making sure not to wake my sleeping father in the other room across the hall. Not that he'll wake him anyway, my dad tends to sleep like a bear during the winter. Nothing can wake him. And yet, he always woke up on time every morning.

"For what?"

"Yes, my love. Which makes it that much easier," he whispered in my ear, pulling me closer to him as he planted another kiss on my head.

"For me to be with you."

I smiled, tilting my head as I looked up at his smiling form. As I stared into his dark eyes, I could sense all the love I could have ever wanted in a man. Even if we only knew each other for such a short period of time, I could honestly say that this young man lying down beside me had stolen my heart since the very beginning. Since the moment I accidentally bumped into him and he held me close to his body, just like he was now. I can honestly say, without a single doubt in my mind, that I was in love with Blake Black.

"Yes, "
