~Zahara~

               This is it! This is happening right now! Cory's lips on mine have to be what heaven on Earth would feel like. The sparks are amazing, and Cory touches every inch of my mouth with his tongue. Every so often, our tongues wrestle, but I don't let it last too long.

               Cory is so hard, and that is making me so wet. I just got out of the shower, and at this rate, I will need to take another shower before I can go downstairs. I run my hand up and down Cory's erection through his pants, wishing I could have skin-to-skin contact. I don't want to push Cory, so I let this play out.

               Cory has a hand running up and down my thigh, and it feels amazing. His hand starts to go up my thigh higher, finding its way to my hip. Cory snakes his hand around and grabs my ass with a squeeze. I moan into Cory's mouth, and he pulls back. I look at him curiously. I wonder if he isn't ready for all of this. I wonder if I pushed him too far. I want Cory to be comfortable, and I want us to both be ready for this.

               Cory visibly swallows and looks me in the eyes. "I......I don't know what I'm doing. I w.....want this.....I want you so bad, but I'm afraid that I will mess it up." I smile at Cory. He has the cutest look of embarrassment, and I just love it. I reach up and gently kiss Cory on his lips.

               "I don't know what I'm doing either so we can just figure it out together." I notice shock shoot through Cory's eyes, but he doesn't say anything. He leans his head back down and presses his lips to mine. We start to kiss, and the heat is growing faster than it did the first time. Cory continues to squeeze my ass while we kiss, and I go back to stroke his dick.

Bean.....bean, are you up? Damn! I forgot to put up the block to my mindlink. I really didn't want to be interrupted, but I can't ignore my father.

Yes, dad......I'm up. I just finished training.

Well, you and Cory need to get out here. The elders will be here in 10 minutes. FUCK! I groan out and pull away from Cory.

               "I'm sorry! Was I doing something wrong?" I sigh and stroke Cory's cheek with my thumb.

               "Everything was great. Dad says the elders are 10 minutes out, so we need to get down there." The passion in his eyes dissipates quickly and is replaced with fear. "It will be okay. Just get ready. I will be by your side no matter what." I kiss him on the cheek and head into the closet to pick out an outfit. I hear a door close, and I figure Cory has gone to get cleaned up.

~Cory~

               Rotten timing and a rotten situation. Zahara was right there, ready for me, and we get interrupted. Besides getting interrupted, I have to deal with the elders today, and I'm not looking forward to that. I'm terrified that my old pack will find out that I'm still alive. I wish I knew what happened that night. I wish I knew who attacked me and tried to kill me. I don't know what would come of it, but it would give me peace of mind.

              I quickly shower and get out, wrapping a towel around my waist. I stop and look at myself in the mirror. Since I found out I have a wolf, and he has been trying to come out, I have noticed some changes. My body is much fuller and more muscular than it was before. I can see the definition along my abs and pecs. I can see the faint start of a 'v' line that should be more prominent after my training takes off. I don't look starved anymore. I'm starting to really fill out, and I'm thankful for that, even though it does look a little weird to me. I have only seen myself when I was being mistreated, so it's weird to see me looking any other way.

               I like what I see emerging so far, and I hope that Zahara feels the same. I walk out of the bathroom and head to get some clothes to wear. What does one wear to meet with the elders anyway? I have never met them in my life, nor have I ever really heard about them. I throw on a pair of dark jeans with a black button-up. I guess this will work; I mean, it shouldn't be a formal affair.

               I notice that Zahara is not in the room, so when I'm done dressing, I head out to find her. I really don't want to face these elders on my own. I'm not strong enough to do this.

We are stronger than you think.

               I'm getting used to Sylas being in my head and popping up at odd times. It has been lonely all of this time, and now I have someone who is a constant. I have to say the difference between life as a wolfless individual and life with a wolf is very obvious. I follow Zahara's scent, which leads me to her father's office. The door is open a bit, so I knock on the door once and walk in. Zahara's father and mother are behind the desk. Zahara is sitting on the couch in the room, and two people are sitting in front of the Alpha and Luna. They both are older people with gray hair to prove it.

               Alpha Byron stands when he sees me, and Luna Amara follows. Alpha Byron motions for me to come closer to the desk, and I follow his request, ignoring the twisting of my stomach. Zahara has gotten to my side quicker than I've ever seen. She wraps her hands around my arm and getting places her lips close to my shoulder. "Gentlemen, this is Cory Williams. This is the heir that I've been talking about." I reach out my hand to shake those of the elders. I have no idea what will happen today, but I just hope that it isn't anything that's going to rip me away from everything I have now. "This is Elder Roberts." He shakes my hand first, and I love the completely gray beard he is sporting. His hair is in a mini afro. "This is Elder Langston." He is the tallest of the two. His dreads are sprinkled with pepper. He wears them down; they are neatly sitting on his shirt collar.

               "So," Elder Roberts starts to speak. "You are the person who will tell us everything, hmm." I gulp and nod, not really knowing what to say to these men.

               "Please, have a seat so we can ask you some questions." Elder Langston motions to the couches, but my feet feel like cement. Thankfully Zahara is there to help me. She pulls me a bit and leads me to sit down on a couch. The elders each sit in an armchair that is placed across from us. I'm extremely uncomfortable, relying on Zahara to be my rock. She keeps our fingers entwined, and I feed off of that energy.

               "You are from Wild Tail pack, correct?" Elder Langston asks. I can feel the dryness of my throat, and I try to remedy that by swallowing a few times.

               "Y....y......yes....." Zahara starts to rub circles on the back of my hand. This is soothing me in an unimaginable way. I close my eyes and try to level myself out.

               "Tell us about living in that pack." I look at Zahara, who gives me a small smile. I look back to the elders and tell them everything I can remember. I tell them about getting in trouble, my punishments, and my day-to-day life at the pack. The more I talk, the calmer I become. I just tell the elders how it was from day to day. They start to look more and more horrified as I discuss my childhood.

               "Isn't.....wasn't your father the former Alpha of that pack, Derek Williams?" I look at Elder Roberts and nod. "So you are the heir, yet you were treated like that?" I don't really have an answer for that, but I imagine that they weren't expecting one. "What brought you here?"

               I look around the room before launching into that story. From meeting Zahara in high school to realizing we were mates, to that night that Zahra saw me and saved my life. Upon hearing this, many growls erupt throughout the room, and Zahara's hand tightens around mine.

               "Gentlemen, maybe we should take some time and revisit this after." The elders nodded at Alpha Byron and stand up to leave the room. I decide to stay behind with Zahara to get my game face back on. I can feel Zahara's anger, and I try to soothe her.

               "I'm ok. I just can't stand to hear everything that's happened to you. It hurts Aria and me when we hear all you had to endure. I swear to you that you will never have to go through anything like that alone again."
