Seth hushed me softly, holding me tightly as I sobbed into his shirt. They wanted to take my mate away
from me. There was a chance that Seth would be executed...they were going to try and kill my mate. I
was a mess.
"Hush, baby, you're going to be okay".
"I won't be okay if they take you away from me" I cried out, my face pressed into his neck. Seth didn't
reply, as he rubbed my back soothingly. "I don't understand how they can do this! You didn't know. You
didn't know". I dissolved into sobs once more as I curled tighter into his embrace – terrified he was
about to disappear any moment now.
"We still have a trial yet. Don't plan my funeral yet" Seth teased, trying to lighten the mood. But his eyes Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
were heavy with stress and his body was still rigid with tension, so his joke did nothing to ease my
worry.
"Please don't joke about this, Seth. If the roles were reversed you'd been going crazy" I growled at him.
Seth sighed heavily, "yeah you're right I would". He offered me a tight smile, before tucking a loose curl
behind me ear. Noise was suddenly heard from downstairs as Dean and the others returned. Seth's
frown deepened, "let's go for a run. Blow of some steam".
He pulled me out of the bed, and out the back of the house. We both quickly Shifted forms. My Shift
was no longer painful but it still took a few minutes, whereas Seth's only took seconds. Once I was a
Wolf, I stretched out as Seth's large dark form – almost double my size – nudged me into a run.
We ran slowly for a while, warming up our muscles, before we sped up to as fast as I could go. Seth
was faster than me, but he kept at my pace so that he didn't lose me. His fur brushed mine as we
rushed through the forests, pushing thoughts from our minds and becoming nothing but instincts.
After a little while, I nudged Seth and nodded that he followed me. He growled in agreement, before I
led him through the Vernal Pack territory and to a small hidden cave in the side of the small mountain
on the west side of the landscape. The cave was a place that highschool kids used to get high or fool
around in a few years back, but after a few teenage girls got themselves knocked up, the Alpha banned
people from going there. But those rules didn't apply to me anymore.
I headed into the cave, laying down to get through the narrow entrance before it opened into a larger
cavern. Inside was dark but my Wolf eyesight quickly adjusted and allowed me to see it. There was an
old trunk on one side, filled with odd clothes and blankets for people are shifts, and on the other side
were old fashioned oil lamps.
I Shifted back before padding over to the oil lamps and turning them on. The soft glittering lights filled
the cavern in an orange-yellow flicker. Seth squeezed through the entrance, grumbling in annoyance as
he struggled not to get stuck, before he shifted back.
"Did you bring me to a makeout spot?" he asked, lips tilting up into a smirk.
I shrugged, "wanted somewhere private where we could talk. The Pack is banned from coming out
here, so thought it was perfect".
"Plus we get to makeout" Seth grinned childishly, grabbing me by my hips and pulling me to him. I hit
my head on the top of the cave and yelped in pain, before exploding into giggles as Seth pulled me
onto his lap. I felt his hard erection press against my hip as our naked bodies pressed together.
Seth laughed as cupped my head as I playfully pouted. "Sorry, baby girl, are you alright?" he grinned,
rubbing my head as we shared a look. But his words dimmed the mood and tears glistened in his eyes.
"No, I'm not alright".
"Me either" Seth admitted truthfully. The fear was obvious and that cracked my heart, because Seth
wasn't supposed to ever be scared. He was the strongest, fiercest, Alpha in the country and he wasn't
supposed to be afraid of anything. If he was scared, then I was terrified.
"What are we going to do?" I asked, voice soft and almost lost in the hollow vacuum of the cavern.
"Right now, I'm going to make love to my beautiful mate. And then tonight I'll sort out everything else".
Seth kissed my lips softly, cautiously, as his eyes searched my face. "Mabel, I'm going to do something
tonight...something that you might not like, something that you'll probably tell me I'm crazy for
doing...but I have to. But, I need your support when I do this".
I was silent for a long while, "what are you going to do?"
"Something drastic. But, today is my mate's birthday and I'm not going to let twenty-year-old me fuck
this day up from ten years in the fucking past".
"I love you" I whispered to him. Leaning forward, I kissed him deeply as my arms wrapped around his
neck. His hard abs were hot against my bare nipples and I almost melted against his beautiful heat.
Seth's hands kneaded my chest sensually, as our lips continued to battle passionately. Reaching
between us, Seth palmed his own erection as I ground my hips against him. He smirked against my
lips, no doubt amused with my eagerness which just forced him to tease me more.
He placed the tip of his hard penis against my clitoris and circled it, making me moan huskily. He
always knew what felt good for us and I usually loved that he liked to teases me – but then I was in no
mood for games, I just wanted him and the comfort of his love. "No Seth" I whispered out desperately.
He nodded, trailing kisses over my jaw and to my neck. We were so in sync that he knew I wasn't
saying no to him, but no to the foreplay.
Seth quickly lined his erection up at my entrance and allowing me to slide down and onto it, taking him
all the way to the hilt. We both moaned together, the sound echoing and bouncing off the walls of the
dark cave. Grabbing my hips, Seth helped me ride his cock – making the friction of our gyrating hips
rub my clitoris at the same time.
I hid my face his in neck, inhaling his addictive scent, as his strong arms kept me in place as he
thrusted his hips up into mine. The screams of my orgasm were muffled by his neck and shoulder, as I
pressed myself tightly against him – ensuring no space between me and the man I loved. Seconds
later Seth's orgasm hit.
Both of us were sweaty, and breathing heavily, as we rested our foreheads together. Seth didn't
withdraw from me and I didn't want him to. We were silent for a while, just sharing soft kisses and
touches.
"How the hell did I survive thirty years without you?"
"In total misery?" I teased, brushing my lips over his as he chuckled softly.
"Must have been" he replied, his breath blowing my hair and teasing my skin. His fingertips brushed up
and down my arms, as we stayed in each other's arms for a little while longer. "God, maybe we should
just stay here forever" Seth suddenly commented, breaking the silence.
"Be cave dwellers for the rest of our lives?" I grinned brightly.
"Sure. Just have sex all the time, you'd use your bow to hunt all the food, have a few cave dwelling
kids, grow out our hair...all the wild things" he joked and I laughed.
"You wouldn't survive with a full beard. You're too vain for that" I retorted, running my nose over his
stubbled chin making him laugh. "So, cave dwelling kids huh?" I changed the subject.
Seth almost look bashful, "well not now, but maybe when you'd finished school next year".
"Well, we'll see when we get out of this cave" I smirked, kissing him gently again.
"Speaking of getting out of this cave" Seth sighed heavily and frowned. "We have to go back to reality
now, you're right I could never survive without my beard trimmer".
We made our way back to the guest house, both of us calmly jogging next to each other in Wolf form.
As we got to the centre of the Pack, I noticed a group of strangers chatting with Alpha Roberts.
The other Alpha's had arrived.
Seth's trial was about to start.
