Tiger Lily

Chapter Eight

     It had been a few days since the cops came and Ty had found some friends in the werewolf children. We hadn't gone to school since everything happened. The school had called and given us the week off. I had been working on my flight skills and going for long periods of time flying, effectively exhausting myself and not allowing myself to think about everything. Each night I would fall asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow, sometimes without even changing.

     I woke up and found myself lying in bed with warm arms around me. I moved and then realized what I was wearing. I was in a loose shirt that was to big for me with no bra on and my underwear. I shifted slightly and slipped out of bed without waking Giovanni. I walked into the bathroom to shower and turned on some light music to listen to as I showered. I was humming along to a song when I heard Giovanni get up. I swiftly finished and grabbed the white towel. I dried off in the shower and stepped out after wrapping the towel around me. I looked out the open door and saw Giovanni on the bed. He was rubbing sleep out of his eyes. I brushed my hair and walked out of the bathroom. Giovanni's eyes darkened as he looked up at me and a possessive growl rumbled from his chest which caused a smirk to form on my lips as I purposely bent over my bag to find my clothes. I tossed some on the bed and straightened as I felt hands fall to my hips. Lips landed on my mark and I could feel how hard he was. I let out a growl of my own surprising us both.

     "Well well well, looks like your werewolf side is coming out." His voice was husky and I could hear his smirk.

     "Humm, a little." I turned in his arms and felt my towel loosen. I pulled his lips to mine and kissed him teasingly, nipping his lips lightly. He attempted to capture my lips, key word attempted. He growled when I pulled away from him. "What's the matter baby?" I teased him causing him to glare playfully.

     "Someone's being a little tease." He smirked with a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Two can play at this game." He said as his head dropped down and he kissed my collarbone. He continued to kiss his way down to my breasts as my breathing and heart picked up. One tug on the towel and I would be naked in his arms. I grinned and pushed him back, knowing he wouldn't expect it. He fell backwards onto the bed and I crawled over him. I kissed him roughly earning a growl. His hands landed on my lower thighs and began to slide up. I smirked against his lips and pulled away. I pushed off the bed, grabbing the clothes I had just tossed on the bed before.

     "I'm going to change." I laughed at his confusion as I went back into the bathroom and closed the door. I heard him get up and growl as I slipped the towel off. He opened the door and froze as his eyes looked up and down my body. They darkened and he growled again as he made his way to me. I wasn't going to lie. His growl turned me on... A lot. I saw him smirk and knew I hadn't been blocking my thoughts as he pulled me against him. His lips landed on mine and I reacted instantly. I felt his tongue lick my bottom lip and I granted him entrance. He moved and grabbed the back of my thighs. He lifted me up onto the sink so that my legs hung on either side of his waist. 'Naomi!' I heard Abby's frantic thoughts and I heard Giovanni groan as he broke away from me.

     'What's wrong.' I asked her with a smile at my mate.

    'Ty is gone.' I stiffened and Giovanni moved away from me to change. I threw on my clothes and rushed out the door to Tom’s house with Giovanni. When we got there Abby was sobbing in Tom’s arms and there were other wolves there. The unknown wolves bowed their head in respect as we entered. I recognized Dad, Mom and Rey. A familiar sent hit my nose and I growled. Giovanni looked at me.

    “It’s him. The one who burned the houses.” I didn’t need to continue. “Where was Ty sleeping?” I asked.

    “Upstairs. Second door on the left.” Tom replied. “He left that.” He pointed to an envelope on the coffee table. I could see my name written on it. Giovanni picked it up and opened it. Anger filled his eyes as he read it.
