Love When All Else Fails

Alpha Naiyla Corvin

I ran through the trees trying to find the perfect hiding spot.

When we got everyone settled into Micah and I's territory we decided to play a little game of hide and seek. Everyone else was out right now and everyone decided to join forces in the 'hunt for Naiyla.' I ran in a circle around a tree then ran in a straight line before back-tracing my steps back to a different tree. I sat in its lush leaves and just waited. Micah decided to give me a head start and it was very cruel of him because all I want to do now is run and move.

"Ready or not here I come!!" I heard Micah yell from the pack house. I couldn't help but fidget around in the tree since I was so nervous.

I heard the sound of approaching steps and stilled my movements. Micah was getting closer and it was not helping the fact that I wanted to move with a horny dog in my head.

Maybe he should 'find' us naked under the waterfall. wink wink

Shira please shut up this is hard without you being a horny mutt in my ear.

Its not my fault our man is irresistible.

Calm yourself woman.

I'm not a woman I am a lady.

Same difference.

Same or different? You cant have both.

I blocked Shira from talking to me anymore and focused on Micah who was quickly approaching. He was running, that much I could tell so he wouldn't be as focused on his surroundings and would just be following my scent.

He ran past the tree that I was perched in and continued running. I didnt know that I was holding my breath until I needed air to grace my lungs and took a deep breath. I slightly slumped in the tree and looked around rememberingmy small self running through these very woods with a little dagger in my hand hunting rabbits with my dad and Micah before he left.

I froze when I heard a rustle in the bushes and whipped my head around so fast that I popped it.

The movements ceased so I just stared hoping for any extra sound to alert me of Micah's presence so I could run for it.

After a few minutes the sound didn't come again so I turned and started listening again.

About two miles out I could hear Lace humming out of tune to Chandelier by Sia.

I inwardly laughed but it soon turned into a outward laugh when I felt someone start tickling me.

By the warmth that spread from the persons fingers I knew it was Micah.

From the spot we were on the tree we ended up toppling out of it. I kinda panicked since I was pregnant and moved to land on my back.

I prepared myself for the impact but it never came. I cracked open an eye to see that Micah was holding me bridal style.

"You know love, since you've been pregnant it seems that you forget that you have faster reflexes than I do and could've landed on your feet." He said chuckling slightly.

I stick my tongue out at him and kicked my feet wanting to get down.

"Can you let me go?" I asked still kicking my dangling feet.

He shook his head, "Why not?" I asked.

"It not everyday that I get to carry my princess." he said.

I laughed, "I'm the size of a baby whale." I said even though I was not even showing.

"You're a very cute whale then." he said.
