Wolf you Up! - Chapter 41

The alpha had spoken with a confident tone that allayed Eden’s fears. The omega lowered his head. If he intended to lift the curse to free his mate, he would need more than willpower. He needed to strengthen his determination and be proactive in locating and defeating an enemy as powerful as the witch who sealed his powers.

He could only guess at the immensity of powers it took to create such a viciously ingenious mechanism to bring about the death of a werewolf protected by the Moon Goddess. Whoever this enemy is, they won’t defeat them with hesitation. He peeked between his eyelashes and put his hand on the alpha’s chest, his fingers delicately touching his pectoral at heart level. He gently pushed the alpha away.

“I’ll do it but let’s take a bath before, we’re covered up in dirt and blood.”

Glen who had already leaned down to be up to his face straightened.

“You’re right. You can go first. I’ll wait outsi… ”

He was already turning towards the front door when Eden’s voice called him back. The omega was reading the tag on each bottle to choose what to use after turning on the shower faucet.

“What’re you doing? We can go together. ”

“Together?” Glen hid his embarrassment with a cough and decided to listen to the younger man who didn’t seem shy because of the situation.

“Yes. It’s faster this way. Let’s wash out the grim first. ”

“I guess you’re really a traditional.”

“Yes, I am, but why are you telling me that?” Eden asked, frowning at the bottle he was handling.

Glen stared at the werewolf who was focused and sniffed the scent of shower gel. His expression changed from suspicious to pleasantly surprised, which made the alpha smile.

“It’s just that I noticed back in the cave people don’t care about nudity and I was a bit surprised at first. I’m still surprised to tell you the truth. ”

“We don’t go around butt naked but I assume that we’re more casual about the matter than humans in some situations.”

“Like bath situations?” Eden chuckled at his question and Glen’s heart throbbed.

“Yes, like bath situations. If you’re not comfortable I won’t force but go first because I want to soak for a bit. I’m gonna wait outside and respect your privacy. ”

He threw the shower gel bottle to Glen who caught it as he was mumbling at the teasing tone.

“It’s not like that.”

When Eden’s turn came and he settled in the tub after thoroughly cleaning his body off every dirt, Glen decided to show he wasn’t flustered by the situation. He had cut the pear in half and tied a towel around his waist after his shower. The alpha swallowed the lump in his throat and walked over to the bathtub, a bottle of shampoo in his hands. He caught Eden’s eyes which lowered up to a certain place and met the white towel. He seemed to have a disappointed look but Glen wasn’t sure about that and didn’t want to act presumptuously. He brushed off his assumptions and knelt on the floor before pressing the liquid into his hand.

“Lean your head back and relax.”

The omega did as he was told it and, soon, a groan of pleasure escaped his mouth as he felt the long, firm fingers gently knead his scalp. Even though Glen had had plenty of time to watch him during his magical sleep, he never got tired of it. The alpha stared at the long blonde lashes that delicately dressed the lids. Now that he had shed the traces of their battle, his mate’s skin gave off a scent of fruit that mingled perfectly with his scent. Glen couldn’t help his thoughts from wandering and he had a hard time keeping his mind in check when he heard a knock on the other side of the door.

“I have brought you clothes that should be a good size, I put them on the bed. Norah has prepared a snack, but if you’d prefer to rest first, don’t hesitate and do as you please. ”

“Thank you,” the two werewolves replied through the door. Just a few seconds later, they heard the sound of the bedroom door.

“Let’s head out,” Eden announced, trying to stand up when Glen held him back and grabbed the showerhead to rinse his hair. He smiled, his eyes closed as he felt the fingers gently pressing the towel to his temples to soak up the water.

“I think you’re spoiling me,” chuckled Eden, and, once again, the alpha felt his pulse quicken.

“That much is ok, huh? I didn’t like how you looked earlier. ” The tip of his finger rubbed the omega forehead gently.

“I’m ready now. If you still want to… ”

Glen simply removed the hair that was sticking to his skin because of the water and tilted his head, exposing his bare neck. Eden leaned one hand on the edge of the bathtub and stared at the special place he was about to bite on. After a long inspiration, he spread his fang and bend over. His breath tickled Glen who shuddered a little then closed his eyes. The feel of the spikes piercing his skin didn’t disturb the alpha. Eden stayed just a second and immediately withdrew his fangs before licking the wound to clean the drops of blood that beaded on the surface of the epidermis.

The dominant looked at his mate who, dazed, stared at the area where he had just left his mark. The alpha smiled and was about to reassure his omega when he noticed his dilated pupils and heavy breathing. Before Glen could think about it, an explosion of pheromones of seduction spread across the room.

“Eden, are you alright?”

He was having a hard time keeping control over his lover’s invitation. His wolf roared and howled, begging him to give in to the omega’s demand. He swallowed and shook his head to clear his mind. Glen grabbed Eden by the shoulders and the young man smiled and leaned down to whisper in his ear in a low tone voice that communicated directly with the alpha’s lower body.

“Hmm… So hot… ”

The dark-long-haired werewolf shivered and felt the tongue of his mate licking his earlobe. A holographic screen appeared in front of his eyes.

Eden’s pheromones had filled every nook and cranny of the room, making the alpha more stun with every passing second. He shivered again as he felt the omega rub suggestively against him.

“You’re killing me, why are you acting like that?”

A sneer answered him and Eden wrapped his arms around his neck before resting his head on his shoulder then he whispered in a satisfied voice.

“You’re mine, Alpha.”

When he heard those words, Glen stopped fighting and gave in. He let out his pheromones and lifted Eden from the bathtub and the omega immediately wrapped his legs around his torso with a seductive look. The alpha walked to the door which he opened with one hand, dripping water on the floor. He laid him on the bed and leaned in to kiss him.

Glen softly brushed his lips then pressed his mouth on the younger man’s. Eden’s lips, which were slightly cold because of the long bath, quickly warmed up against his touch. He slowly motioned his lips and felt the damp sensation of his mate’s tongue darting out. He opened his mouth and let the soft muscle invade to initiate a sensual dance that left no corner untouched. Glen’s mind grew dizzy, and soon he was completely drunk on the kiss. He could feel the sweet touch of Eden’s finger stroking his biceps then sliding down his abs up to the towel still tied around his hips. The hand hovered for a moment above the junction. The alpha cupped his omega’s face with one hand. He slipped the finger of the other one in the blond hair and broke the kiss.

“You’re playing with fire.”

A lascivious smile spread on Eden’s lips as he narrowed his eyes. Glen’s gaze locked on the now glowing golden iris and straightened his bust to caress the skin. His fingertip brushed a bloody crescent moon mark on the left side of Eden’s chest that wasn’t here earlier.

“What’s that?”

When Silver and the rest of the Bloodhood members and Elma Softmane arrived at the Alpha’s residence, they found Norah and Rafael on the front steps accompanied by another Omega the Alpha had taken under her wing. The leader frowned at the look on the face of the three werewolves and couldn’t help but ask if they had done something wrong.

“What are you doing here, kiddos? Where are Eden and his mate? ”

Norah looked at her omega friend and then her brother with an expression that was telling ‘You talk’. The boy averted his eyes.

“I’m the youngest one. Don’t try to push me around. ”

“You have the sharpest tongue. It’s not a big deal for you. ” snapped back Norah. Her cheeks were bright red as well as the tip of her ears.

The Purple Eyes ‘leader looked between his omega children and warned them.

“You have five seconds to tell me what the hell is happening here. One… Two… ”

Norah started to panic and pleaded with her omega friend. The young werewolf kept her head lowered to the ground, her face and neck were crimson. The head topped with a scarlet red mane then snapped to the young omega male who crossed his arms to demonstrate his determination.

“Four…”

“I think they’re mating.” She blurted out and the still pure heart female omega’s face grew even redder.

“What are you talking about? Eden? Mating? Why would they… ”

“I’ll go check what’s going on.”

Silver strode toward the door and grabbed the door handle when the hair-like-mane teenage girl stopped him.

“Don’t open the door. It’s unbreathable inside. ”

“What?”

The words came out too late. Silver opened the door and let out a thick mix of seductive pheromones. Apple pie, bitter chocolate, and cinnamon filled the nostrils of the group who slapped their hands on their nose to suppress the overwhelming smell. The scents had pervaded the place up to the roof.

“I don’t know what it is, but they aren’t mating. Their pheromones are way too strong. I can also smell a very strong scent I’ve never smelled before. ” She answered with a frown. “What’s it?”

“We couldn’t stay inside because of these unknown pheromones, it was like the smell was threatening us so we don’t stay here.”

“Yeah, I can feel it too,” Cherry had stepped away from the entrance.

Silver Bloodhood turned to his mate who nodded in agreement, her hand pinching her nose to avoid breathing the scent, and checked with Christopher and Dante who shook their head to deny.

“If these pheromones are particularly affecting omega isn’t that something related to this Omega’s mark thing?” Dante asked.

Bloodhood’s leader facepalmed himself and heaved a deep sigh.

“I’m really sorry, Elma. I didn’t think the kids wouldn’t wait until we come back to our territory. ”

“Don’t worry. I can’t say that I’m ok having my house filled with another alpha’s seductive pheromones, but I’m sure they were startled as well. They are probably thinking with something else than their lower body by now. ”

“Mom!”

Norah and Rafael yelled out in chorus with embarrassed and red faces and their mom laughed heartily.

A faint sound of a door opening on the first floor reached their supernatural ears and a few seconds later footsteps echoed on the stairs. The two alphas rushed inside. They followed the direction of the noises and made their way to the kitchen where they found Glen standing with the sink, glass in hand. When the young alpha turned to them, he put on an embarrassed look and the two dominants stared in shock at his chest covered with kiss marks, but especially the bite he had at the base of his neck and the blood-red crescent moon on his pectoral at the level of the heart.

“Silver, what the hell is going on here? I’ve never seen anything like that. “
