Caleb looked away and let his eyes search for his Mate and he found him standing in the circle, his gaze burned into him and the Alpha's Mark grew brighter. Phoenix pulled him back when he noticed he was walking faster, his gaze fixed on his Lycan. He leaned to whisper into his ears. "Remember, to control it until the ceremony is sealed, and think about the pups while you do it tonight," This had Caleb blushing a bright red and he lowered his gaze in embarrassment. A smile curled onto his face, and he nodded and looked up to his Alpha. Phoenix gave a soft nod, and kissed him briefly, before releasing him with a gentle squeeze of his hands. Caleb felt the tingling warmth run down his chest and to his fingertips. He gave a small smile as he turned to walk into the circle. As the pack members bowed to him, he gave them all a quick bow and then stood in front of the Alpha who was smiling warmly at him with a proud expression.

He could feel how much Conri was trying to control himself at that very moment, and it burned his skin. He could hear his wicked thoughts loudly, and they made his breath shaky, and his legs weak.

"Ready, my sweet?" He asked. Caleb nodded and placed his hand on Conri's chest where he had marked him, and hissed when Conri placed a hand on his neck. The mark was burning hotter than it ever has, he tried not to let his discomfort show. When it subsided the Lycan pulled him closer and rested his forehead against his. Caleb closed his eyes, inhaling the scent that surrounded his Alpha, and the feeling of security. "Breathe," Conri muttered, and he nodded, taking a quick inhale and exhale, he opened his eyes, and nodded again, pulling away from their closeness.

The Hall grew quiet and the Elders began to chant the Bonding Oaths. It echoed throughout the clearing and Caleb's blood pumped so fast he thought he could die from it. white flames erupted from around the circle filling their body with heat causing both Were to shift into their half-man-half-were form. On Conri's fur rose the golden stripes of the tiger, and on the weretiger, dark Lycan furs rose. In unison the two began to growl, their growls reverberating around the area as their furs shifted in brilliant colors.

Once the chanting stopped, Conri cupped Caleb's cheeks with both hands gently and leaned forward. As soon as their lips connected, his wolf let out a low growl, the vibrations resonated deep within his soul. The taste of the Alpha's tongue sent tingles down Caleb's spine. His grip on the Lycan's hair tightened, pulling him tighter to him, and groaned lightly at the overwhelming feeling of being claimed before the Pack. He purred softly, urging the Lycan to take control. Caleb shuddered, the energy flowing around him like wildfire. Conri smirked and pulled back, smiling into Caleb's lust-blazed eyes.

"Not yet," He whispered and caressed his cheek tenderly with his thumb. Caleb's eyes widened, and he tilted his chin down with a blush coloring his face. Conri chuckled and placed his hands on Caleb's waist. "You're so cute, and tonight even more, I can hardly control myself." He brought their foreheads together once more, but this time, he breathed a kiss into his mouth and nibbled it lightly.

Caleb moaned softly into the kiss, and wrapped his arms around his Alpha's neck, holding him close. Conri ran his nose against Caleb's neck, and bit into it a little. "When your blush comes out like that, my mind wanders." He murmured against his skin, and moved his lips along the column of his throat, stopping once he reached the base of his neck. Caleb gasped and shivered under his touch, and then his breathing hitched when he felt something sharp pricking at his throat.

The sound of throat clearing jolted Conri out of his stupor, and he turned to meet the Elder smiling down at him. "Your vows," The Elder spoke.

Conri grinned sheepishly. "Sorry," he apologized with a shrug, then returning his gaze to Caleb, he smiled. "Xiher," He started, "Under the Goddess's witness, I give you my vows this day, to love, to protect, and cherish with all I have. To support you through good times, through bad times, to love you always, to protect you no matter the cost. All that I am is yours, my Xiher, my Erasthai. For better or worse. To you, I pledge my loyalty, my heart, my Lycan, my soul, here on Earth and after." Conri finished, wiping a tear from Caleb's cheeks, smiling tenderly into his eyes.
