Blood Moon Wolf

chapter 20

Chapter 20
Waking up in Xzavier’s arms the next morning i was in pure bliss.  I placed my hand on the side of his face running my fingers through his hair gently.
“Hmm...best part of my day waking up next to you" he mumbles before coming in for a kiss.
We spent a bit more time in bed just cuddling and kissing each other.
Eventually my need for the bathroom grew and i had to pull myself out of the bed. I wanted to spend all day just holding him.  But we have stuff to do.
I turn on the shower and step in letting the water run over my body helping the aches in my muscles. Xzavier stops behind me wrapping his arms around my kissing my shoulder. He grabs the soap and slowly washes me then washes me hair. I return the favour but as soon as im about to run the soap over his lower abs he grabs me kissing me hard.
“I tried.. i tried really hard to let you wash me but i cant” he says as he picks me up and presses me to the tiles behind me.  He thrusts into me and groans.
I moan i move hips so he is sliding in and out of me.... “fuck Mia” he says as he thrusts into me faster and harder. His grunts and moans just sending me closer to the edge.
“Come with me mia. Now” i explode giving in to my orgasm as i feel him pulse and release inside me. We clean each other up and then step out.
We dry and dress before heading down for breakfast. Im wearing black jeans and an emerald green off the shoulder jumper, Xzavier in a black fitted t shirt that’s showcases his muscles and jeans i couldn’t help drooling.
“Close your mouth dear. Your drooling” my mom chuckles as i snap my mouth closed.  Xzavier smirks at me as he bites his lip.
“Its ok Mrs Sanderson. I’m drooling too” he says. 
“Cant keep hands off each other ... i remember those days”
“Mom! I do not need to know about you and dad” i say as my face goes bright red.  She just laughs and kisses my cheek and heads to sit next to my father.
We take our seats and make a start on our breakfast.  I had just finished when the King arrives in to the breakfast hall.
Everyone stands and bows their heads in respect.
“I have just come to inform you all that we will be leaving today and heading home. It has been a pleasure meeting you all and i thank you all for your hospitality”  the king and his men take a seat and have some breakfast.
Xaziver pulls me up by my arm “come on lets go for a run”
I smile at him. We have time for a quick run before school.
“This just a couple affair or can anyone join?” Jackson says.
“You can join" X responds.
Court jumps up from her seat.... “I’m coming too".
We all head out back and I watch as everyone shifts into their wolves.
“Dusk is refusing to let me shift. Keeps saying its not time yet... whatever that means. Ill run along side"
We take off running and i can see how much fun court is having.  It makes me smile.
I jump over Jackson and land on the side beside court.
“Catch me if you can” i chuckle as i push off even more running faster.  I hear her and jackson scoff then there paws are pounding behind me.  They think they can catch me because I’m not in my wolf form, X is ahead already ahead i push myself again and catch up to him, just as Jackson and court was about to catch me.
I laugh as they tumble over each other. X pulls me onto his back and takes off running towards the lake.  I run my hands in his fur and leaning forward and wrapping my arms around him.
He literally purrs in delight.   X stops and turns back towards the pack house. 
Jackson and court chase each other heading back once we pass them. I watch as Jackson plays with court and nips at her heals to get her to run faster.  I can literally see the joy in their eyes as they play.
-seriously Dusk why cant we shift? Dont you want to run?-
-i do but it isnt time... i’m sorry- then she blocks me out.
I lean forward again pushing my face in x fur i feel as a shiver runs through him. 
Once we near the pack house i jump off X and wait as they all shift back and dress.  Then we head to school.
I had officially sent off all my missed assignments last night. So I’m hoping to at least get a couple of them back with my grade today.
Plus today my dad is taking me to get my drivers permit. I’m excited for that.
The school day drags by and nothing eventful happens. Jackson hasn’t told Courtney yet so lunch was comical watching Jackson keep Lucas away.  Poppy was too much in her own head barely engaging in the conversation. No doubt thinking of her mate.
As the end of the day bell rings i sigh in relief to get out of geography.  I normally enjoy school but today has been long.
As i leave the front school doors and down the steps i see my dad parked near the school gate.  I start to make my way towards him as an arm snakes around my waist.
“where you going beautiful?” X asks. As he pulls me closer to him and kisses my cheek.
“Dad is taking me to get my drivers permit, we should be back in couple of hours”
“Damn... i was hoping for time with you 6 hours without your face today has been torture.”
I Laugh because i have felt the same.
“You will have to get used to it dear. You will be graduating this year and i still have years to go.”
He groans “don’t remind me... fine ill see you later” he says as he kisses me and then lets me go.
I hop into my dads car and off we go to get my drivers permit.
“You excited sweetheart?” my dad asks.
“Nervous i guess” my dad chuckles
“I’ve been waiting for this. I’m excited to teach you”
Its another 20 minutes before we reach the place to get my permit.
30 minutes later I’m walking out with my permit as my dad tosses me the keys for my first driving lesson.
I stall about 5 times while my dad laughs so hard he is clutching his belly.
“Its not easy driving a stick” he chuckles as he gives me instructions again.
Once we finally het moving i take it slow at first as my dad tells me what to do. Its not long before I’m moving at a normal pace.

We are just coming up to my moms bakery in town, i hit the breaks so hard as a vision pulls me in....a car pulls out of the bar across the street just ahead of us.  Speeding out unable to drive straight he collides with 2 cars one right in front of us and another further up ahead in the opposite side of road.
My vision subsides and i barely have enough time to even jump out of the car already running towards the car in front shouting for them to stop but im too late.
The collision happens and i stop in my tracks as the car in front spins out of control and flips rolling a couple of times before it stops about a foot in front of me on its roof.
I instantly run and start pulling at the doors. People rush out of the bakery and the bar.
“Get to the other 2 cars i got this one” i shout.
My dad is with me pulling the driver out of the front of the car. I break the lock on the back door, i would have been able to just pull it off no problem but with humans around i have to act as though i struggle.
When i pull the door open there’s 2 people in the in the back a young boy and someone i know.
“Lucas" i gasp.
Neither boys are conscious.
Some one comes up behind me as crawl into the car getting into position to get the boy out first.
“Lucas Wake up” i shout hoping to get him awake.
I break the catch on the seatbelt holding the boy as i pretend i struggled a little with the buckle the boy falls on top  of me.
“Take him ill get the other one”
“the cars on fire lass” he says in a irish accent.
“Ill hurry just take the boy then come back to help pull us both out. Im not leaving him in here”
As the man takes the boy i move over to be a cushion for Lucas to fall on once i break the belt.
The smoke is getting thick in the car now. I need to hurry.
“Lucas wake up... please"  i say as i pull on the seatbelt buckle.
“Lucas...” i cough.
The buckle brakes and Lucas lands on me i wrap my arm around him as i shuffle in my back closer to the open door.
I stretch my hand out and grab just outside the door for someone to grab.
“Pull us out” i feel 2 pairs of hands grab my arm and pull. The two men pick Lucas off me as i roll on my side coughing up a storm due to the smoke i inhaled. I feel someone grab me and pull me further from the car. Just as i get to the other side of the road the gas tank explodes.
I sit looking around. My dad is doing chest compressions and there’s humans and wolves doing the same to another 3 people.  9 people involved in this Collison. I cough as i sit up the person who pulled me away from the car is trying to get me to stay still.
“I’m ok” i croak
I slowly get to my feet and move towards Lucas.
“Lucas.. come on wake up” i say patting my hands against his face. 
“His pulse is strong.” A women says to me. “you know him?” she asks
“Yeah he is a friend from school.. his brother?” i say looking around.
Someone else is sitting with him.
The sound of sirens fills the air as ambulances and fire trucks and police pull in to the scene.

Everyone is rushed off and those around to witness have to give statements.  One of the paramedic’s insist on giving me oxygen and checking my levels before letting me go.
I try to refuse but my dad tells me i should. I nod knowing i have to play along.
After 15 minutes with a mask on and my oxygen levels being normal I’m released.
As soon as my dad pulls up to the pack house im out the door of the car and pushing through the front door.
“COURTNEY!!” I yell. Lucas is more her friend then mine, not to mention his mam will be called by the hospital but his best friend Kyle wont. I’m hoping she has his number to call him he deserves to know.  Courtney comes out of the common room followed by X, jackson leo and poppy.
“How your first less-“ she trails off once the smell of smoke hits her nose.
“ What the hell happened? Are you ok?” X yells as he rushes to me. Looking for injuries i can feel his fear and concern through the mate bond.
“Im fine...” i say as i push X away from me slightly so i can see Courtney.
“There was an accident. Drunk driver, Court Lucas, his brother and dad was in one of the cars caught in the collision...” her face falls and tears start flowing from her eyes, poppy gasps and the boys faces pale. Jackson pulls Court in to his arms to comfort her. He may not like Lucas flirting with her but he cares for the guys well being and he hates seeing his mate sad. Leo does the same for poppy.  “ i pulled them out, his pulse was strong but he didn’t wake up, he’s at the hospital but I’m hoping you have Kyles number. He deserves to know too.”
Court nods and fiddles with her phone. Her hands shaking a little.  “i.. cant..” she stutters between sobs.
I take her phone “i got it” i say as i squeeze her hand and press the call button for Kyle.
It takes few rings before the call is answered.
“Hey court, whats up?”
“Kyle its Mia.”
“Mia hey girl how you doing?”
“umm Kyle.. there’s been an accident..”
“Courtney is she ok?” he interrupts before i can continue.
“Court is fine. Kyle there was a car Collison Lucas and his family except his mom was in one of the cars. He was taken to hospital.” I hear him breathing heavy and movement on the other end of the line
“MOM!!” I hear him shout. He continues calling for his mom. With no response.
“Mia, no ones home i cant-“ i hear the strain on his voice he is fighting tears 
“We are on our way, text us your address we will get you there”
“Thanks mia” i hear before ending the call. I grab the keys to the mini van and tossed them to Jackson.
“Lets go” we all file out.

Its not long until we have picked up Kyle and arriving at the hospital,  we know we cant get information on his condition but we can be  here for his mom while she waits. I may have only known them a for a short while but i have always cared about the people of the this town close to our packs territory.  I used to ‘help' mom in the bakery she has in town, though by help i mean make more of a mess pretending i was cleaning and serving people, the people where always nice and smiling, humans and wolves alike, they always joined in helping with my game of pretend.  Its those memories that make me love the people here.
I remember one year Lucas wasn’t at school for a month and when he did return he kept to himself for a long time . I heard his father had died and i remember my mom taken me to give them some baked goods. Still i had never spoken to him. I mainly just stuck with Courtney. 
Things are different now. Even though i wasn’t there when Courtney and poppy made more friends they had welcomed me as if we where long time friends in to the circle.
We had been sat in the waiting room of the hospital. I have filled Kyle in on what happened in the drive over here and when we got out Kyle pulled me into a hug thanking me for pulling his friend out.
X had to stop the growl that wanted to erupt for another man for touching me.  As soon as Kyle let me go he pulled me to his side arm around me, possessively.
It was about 10 minutes after we arrived that i hear Kyle call for Lucas mom. I raised my head to see a women with long dark hair and a pants suit, normally she her look would be professional and put together but clearly she was a mess due to the news. She streaks in her make up from the tears and her hair was all over the place. God inly knows what she is going through right now. First losing her husband and father if her children to now having her new husband And kids in a terrible car accident.
“...i will have the doctor come out and speak with you as soon as her can” i heard the receptionist tell her.
She nodded holding back a sob. Kyle had walked over to her and gave her a hug and then pulled her over to us to take a seat.
“oh.. you must all be friends with Lucas” she said wiping her eyes.
“they are. Mia was the one to pull them out of the car “ Kyle. said.
“Oh... thank you so-“
“Honestly mrs cooks i only did  what anyone else would have. There is no need to thank me. Truly”  We all took a seat and awaited news.
Xzavier’s pov
I could feel Mia's worry through our mate bond.  She was a person who was strong and independent and fierce but she was also kind and caring and protective.
Even though we had hardly spoken to lucas over the years, he became part of our group at school.  We all care for his well being.
I hate that Mia had put herself in danger but I’m proud of her. She saved them. Even though i know people thanking her for it isnt something she is comfortable with, she feels it is unnecessary. She didnt do it to be thanked and praised she did because she cared.
We had been sat with Lucas mom for 2 hours now. Leo had went and got everyone coffee from the machines about 30 minutes ago.
I could feel Mia’s exhaustion and she was still covered in blood and dirty but she would refuse to leave until she knows how they are doing.
All i want to do is take care of my mate and protect her.  I wish she didn’t have the fate of this upcoming war on her shoulders. She deserves to be happy and enjoying life.

“Mrs Cooks?” a doctor and in blue scrubs and a white coat says into the waiting room.
Mrs cooks stands for the doctor. Her back tense.
“Your husband and youngest are both doing well, they have some minor injuries but nothing serious. Your eldest son, suffered the worse of the injuries as the impact was on his side of the car.  There was some swelling on the brain amd we have had to put him in a medically induced coma. He also had internal bleeding which we operated and stopped. He should make a full recovery but we wont know the effects of his head injurie until he wakes up. You may want to prepare your self there could be some memory loss”  Mrs cooks shoulders sag and Mia feels relived to hear they are alive.  I seriously hope Lucas makes a full recovery. 
I pull Mia to me and hold her pressing a kiss to her temple.
“Thank you all for coming and sitting with me. They are only allowing family in at the moment but you can come visit when they allow it.. i managed to persuade the doctors to let you in Kyle. I know they are like brothers to you.”
“Thank you mrs cooks" kyle responds
“Thank you for letting us stay to hear the news. We will come back another day to check up. Kyle if you end up needing a ride home or anything just give us call we will come get you.” I say
“Thank you Xzavier”
“Come on love lets get you home and cleaned up.” I pull mia with me towards the exit keeping my arm around her waist i can feel her exhaustion.
We arrived back at the pack house, poppy was staying in Leos guest room and Jackson had gave Courtney the room next to his. He still hasn’t told her about being her mate.
I took Mia into our room -i still needed to move her things from her old room but it hasnt been top priority lately-  i ran the bath and placed some bubbles in then i stripped Mia of her clothes and carried her in to the bath.
Taken a sponge and her favourite soap – honey and almond-and washed all the dirt and blood off her. The scraps have healed with them being minor but the blood was still there.
I gently massaged shampoo in to her scalp and washed it off. The little sighs she was making, made me feel so content. Mia is my everything and i love everything about her. I love her fighting spirit, her protectiveness and her unconditional love.
When that she wolf thrown herself at me i should have reacted quicker but i had been busy looking at mia and she did it as i turn around. I know mia would have felt it. God i was furious and honestly scared i thought Mia was going to reject me and i had already love her completely it would have killed me if she had.
When she came back into the room i was willing to beg for her , anything she demanded she would have got.  But we ended up marking each other and i couldn’t have been more happier about it.
She is my mate, my Luna, my soul. She owns me completely.
I helped her step out if the bath and i dried her and helped her dress for bed. I didn’t let her walk to the bed though i picked her up bridle style  and carried her to it.
After placing her in i stripped to my boxers and climbed in beside her.
“Rest my love” i say as i pull her to me so i can hold her.  We had an amazing summer when we first met but since then it has been incident after incident to deal with for her and she has the fate of werewolf kind on her shoulders as per the vision suggests.
I can only carry half of her burden and it still isn’t enough she deserves everything good not all this.
“I love you with everything i am Mia” i say as i hear her breathing even out. I kiss the top of her head the rests on my chest. 
“I love you with everything i am too Xzavier”
The biggest smile takes over my face i thought she was sleeping. 
“I would make love to you right now but you need sleep baby so sleep”  i say kissing her head again and wrapping my arms around her.

I snuck out the next morning, I didn’t want to wake her, she needed her rest. She had so much on her shoulders lately.  Today we where taking a break just for us. Maybe all day or just half but she needed it. Hell i needed it just to spend some time with her with no interruptions no other people around. 
The king had called in the supernatural council to discuss the current situation. The council consists of a member of each race to ensure the security of their kind and to be a voice of reason during a war such as this.  They rarely got involved unless requested. That meeting was taking place this afternoon until it was over we wouldn’t know anything until the king gets in touch.  So time with my mate, my luna, my love it is today.
My plan was to take her to the lake and hide out for as long as we could.  I sorted out food and change of clothes in a bag. I had just finished everything when i felt she was awake. I grabbed the breakfast i had prepared and took it up to her. She had just stepped out the bathroom as i came in.
“We are having a date  day today darling. Just you and me.  I brought you breakfast. Eat while i shower and then i will wait for you downstairs ok. No hurry” i kissed her when i saw she was about to refute me.
“No argument.” I said walking to the bathroom and turning in the shower.
-Jackson mia and me are unavailable today unless it is an emergency-
-you got it.-
I still couldn’t believe he hadn’t told court yet. Though its 2 weeks until she will know. But it killed me not being able to tell mia for a year. Watching other males flirt with her and having to control my possessive wolf.
‘It was not just me being possessive.. partly you too'
‘Got me there’ i chuckled.
I finished up and dressed before leaving the bathroom. Mia had placed some clothes for today on the bed she had been quite this morning.
I can feel her worry and stress.  Things may have been alright last year after she first shifted early but ever since this blood moon it has been nothing but problem after problem.
And her fight isn’t over yet.
I would do anything to take this fight off her shoulders to protect her, so all she has to do is enjoy her life, go to school and then help me run this pack and just let me love her as much as i do.
But this is her fight.
All i can do is fight beside her and love her.
I wrap my arms around her waist and put my face in the crook of her neck, taking in her scent.
“I love you Mia... your not in this alone. I am with you every step of the way” i place a kiss to her cheek.
“I love you too... so god damn much” she responds. A huge grin on both our faces.
“I will wait for you downstairs.” I kiss her cheek again and leave.

40 minutes later i had everything pack in the car when she stepped out of the pack house.  Looking gorgeous in her skinny black jeans and t shirt. All of which hugged her sexy as hell figure. The sight of her alone has me heating up with desire but today is about us relaxing.. and amazing sex... well as much as i want to i want her to be happy more.  I was going to drive us as close to the lake as i could then shift for the rest of the trip.
“Ready?” i asked as i opened the door for her to climb in.
“Yeah.. where we going?” she asked.
I just smiled and shut her door and then ran around Hop in into the driver seat.   Starting the engine and pulling away before i respond.
“What? Dont you trust me?” i ask amused.
“Nah i think this is the point in the movie you take me away to kill me” she laughs.
“Well miss Sanderson..... the is a place that i would love to take you too and do anything my heart desires... but it definitely wont be to kill you. “ i say as eye fuck her and bite my Bottom lip.
I smell her arousal and i groan. I almost pull the car over and take her right in the back seat.  God she drove me crazy.
Clearing my throat i shift to adjust myself.
“Time for that later, baby.... fuck you smell too good”
“What’s wrong baby? Finding it hard to control yourself?” She smirks. 
God she was going to be the death of me.

I parked about a 10 minute run from the lake.
“Going to the lake?” She asked.  Clearly figuring out where i planned to go. I know it wasn’t much but it was the inly place i knew that we could be alone and not interrupted.
“I know its nothing fancy..” i started before she interrupted.
“i dont need fancy.. i just need you” 
God.... i just fell even more in love with her.
I pulled her in am gave her a passionate deep kiss.  Running my tonged over her bottom lip asking for entrance.  Which she granted easily.  Our tongues collided in a smooth caress.  I titled her head back to deepen the kiss even further. She tasted so good i was getting so hard.
I pulled away after a moment with a groan. “if we keep kissing like that we are never going to make it to eat the picnic i packed” i say breathlessly.
Her chest rising a falling as tried to regain her breath.
“Dusk still not letting you shift?”
“No.. i dont know what’s going on with her lately” 
“We will know in time..” i say squeezing her hand.
I pull the bag and basket out of the boot. 
“i could shift and you can ride or we can both just run the rest of way like this”
“ill run it will be easier to carry whatever you have packed.”
“Your not carrying a thing.” I say as place the backpack on my back and a the basket in one hand then i grab a hold of her hand and lace our fingers together.  I pull her towards me, still not letting go of her hand i pull it with mine behind her back as i pull her closer.
“Your so beautiful and perfect, i love you so damn much. Today is about you my love.” I give her a sweet kiss that i hope expresses how much i love  her.
We run along side by side towards the lake.  It only takes a few minutes until we arrive.  I set up our picnic and we sit and enjoy some time together. 
We are lying on our backs entwining and untwining our hands together against the sky.
“ you wanted to be a doctor right?” I ask her
“I still can be a doctor and a Luna together it doesnt have to be one or the other”
“i know... i was just going to ask what type of doctor you wanted to be?”
“before i wanted to be a pack doctor, i wanted to learn all the different ways to cure even the non medicinal and learn to be surgeon. But being a luna too ill have to choose one and i think since most of the injuries are resetting and stopping internal bleeds a surgeon would be better.”
“you can do what ever you want. Your dreams matter too babe”.
She leans in and gives me a sweet kiss before resting her head on my chest.
“Lets go for a swim” i say picking her up bridal style and running towards the rock to climb so we can jump in.
But im not letting her go we are jumping in like this.
“Come on X put me down” she yells before she can complain more im jumping off the cliff and into the water.
