The Black Wolf and her Mate

Bonus Chapter!

Ava's POV (Before Epilogue)

It's late March... It's a boring time of year... There aren't any festivals, birthdays, anniversaries... anything! Boring...

I'm currently signing some papers that need my signature... Pack work. Its so boring! However, it is necessary to keep the pack working right.

I let out a loud yawn and stretch my arms behind my head. I walk over to the couch in my office and lay down, closing my eyes and hoping to relax. 

Of course, it's short lived. 

Priya! Bahaar aa! (Come outside) I heard mom's voice. 

I grumbled a little bit but decided to go outside anyways. I could use a break from the stuffy office and maybe spend some time outside.

I opened to door, making my way outside, wondering where everyone else was. I entered the field outside and got my answer. There were people everywhere, I think almost all the pack was  outside, having water guns out and throwing color at each other! 

I can't believe I forgot Holi! I just stood there, open mouthed, as my pack had the time of their lives. I looked around (more like smelled around) for Adam. I couldn't find him, so I linked him. 

Adam? I called out. 

Yeah, babe? He answered.

Where are you? I asked.

"Right here." I heard his voice behind me, as he surprised me by putting some red color on my cheeks. I looked at him and he looked colorful! He had a yellow, pink and red dominant face. I laughed. He looked so cute!

He looked at me mischievously, pulling out a water gun from behind him and handing it to me, pulling out another one. Where did he get those?! Didn't he just have color in his hands?!

Ignoring the strange happening, I accepted the water gun and joined in the fun! I'm pregnant, sure, but that doesn't mean I can't have fun!

I chased Adam around the house, laughing and having a good time. I began getting tired faster, though the adrenaline rush I was getting right now from all the fun was overpowering it. 

I ignored it and caught Adam, rubbing a lot of strong color (the pink one that doesn't wash off easily) on his face. He groaned, turning around and hugging me tight, rubbing the color from his face onto mine. 

I tried moving away from him, but ended up falling on the ground, which was muddy from all the water, instead. I burst into laughter as we both got covered in muddy water. Adam wasn't enjoying himself though.

It's not too hard to tell it's his first time doing this for fun! This is such an adorable sight! A big, bad Alpha wolf, sad because he's covered in muddy water! 

I mock-pout at him, making him glare at me harder, but I just chuckle and hold my hand out to pull him up. 

"Let's get cleaned up. Come on." I say, making him grin. However, instead of pulling himself up, he pulls me down to the ground with him, turning us over so I'm at the bottom.

He grins and basically washes my hair with the dirty water. I groan. That's so going to take hours to clean. However, feeling infectiously happy and excited, I just laugh after that. 

Adam's POV

I look at Ava, rolling in the muddy water, laughing her ass of as if she just saw the most funny thing ever. I wonder how she does it - stays happy like that even though she's covered in mud! 

I know for a fact that it will take forever to clean the stuff she put on my face, but looking into the joy in her eyes, I understand. So what if I've got color? I already did! So what if I've got mud? It's not too much! I'll deal with that later, right now, I have to savour the moment. 

I laughed with her, pulling the two of us back up. 

----------

It's been a few hours since we began and everyone is basically beat. We're all dead tired, but Ava and John seem to still be drunk on adrenaline. They both enter the pack house with grins on their faces and hug each other tightly, wishing each other a happy Holi.

It's no wonder this is their favourite festival. It was a blast. I've been drying outside for a while, so the pack house doesn't get dirty, just like everyone else is doing. We all will clean up the mess we made, but right now, everyone's too tired and dirty to do that. 

I walk into the pack house after I'm dry and enter our room. I hear the shower running. 

She must be showering all that grime off her. I feel myself get hard at the thought. My dick needs help. Now.

I don't care if she's fucking naked. I strip off my clothes and throw them into a corner of the bathroom. I step into the shower, seeing a wide-eyed Ava. She covers her face, attempting to hide the bright red cheeks

I grab her hands, pulling them away from her face and moving her so she's got her back facing me. I begin to run my hands along her soft skin, rubbing the colors off (most of it). 

After a while, she turns around and does the same. I shiver under her touch. She traces my abs, standing on her tip-toes to reach my hair. She rubs some shampoo in it, making me groan and my erection harden (if possible). I let out a soft moan. She opens her eyes, looking at me through her lashes. 

Is it wrong that I'm turned on more by the pink color that won't leave her face? Or by the fact that she's pregnant?

As of now, I don't care. I need her, and I will get her. 

She closes her eyes as I pull her in for a kiss. It's desperate and wanting, and leaves us gasping for air. 

"How about we clean up first?" She asks huskily, making me close my eyes. "Sure." I reply, breathily.

And that's how we ended up here, on the bed, naked, cuddling. 

I feel so damn good right now. Especially with our own little kid being in our lives. It's going to be a long ride, but we'll both be there. 

I stare at her stomach, at our little kid. Whoever he or she is, I will love them with all my heart. My family.

I place a hand on her stomach, rubbing it soothingly. Ava grins up at me, turning so her front is facing mine. She looks at me, giving me a soft peck on the lips before burying her face into my chest. It feels so good. 

I pull her up slightly, burying her face in my neck, where it seems to fit perfectly. She hums in response, as if agreeing with me. I feel complete. As cheesy as it sounds, I feel like she completes my puzzle piece.

Her body fits perfectly in my hands. I put them around her torso, pulling her even closer. She places one last soft kiss on my neck before wishing me good night. I do the same, falling into a deep sleep.
