Puppy Love

Chapter 13: Forever.

I wake up tangled in red satin sheets, my body sore as I stretch. My hand brushing against a hard body and I jolt upright, suddenly remembering the events of yesterday as I clutch the red sheet to my bare chest. My phone rings loudly next to me and it snaps me back into reality, I grab it quickly answering, "hello?"

"Hello? That's all I get? You fucking drop off the face of the earth, miss my birthday, you DIE, come back to life, get almost killed again, get fucked to sleep, and I have to hear all about this from your fucking mate yesterday, and you just answer the phone with hello?" Blaine screams into my ear.

"I'm sorry Blaine." I whisper trying to be quiet so I don't wake up Colby, "how can I make it up to you?"

"I want a party. Like a big party." He huffs like a toddler.

"You got it. This Saturday night, tell all your friends." I smile.

"Fine. I love you. Please stop trying to die."

"Love you too. I'll try, no promises."

Colby stirs, dragging me back down next to him to cuddle, "I gotta go, I'll call you later."

"Dick must be waiting." You can hear the smirk in his tone, "use protection we don't want any pups running around!"

"Bye Blaine." The blush in my cheeks as bright as ever as I hang up on him.

"A party huh?" Colby asks, his voice gravelly from just waking up.

"Yeah, I did miss his birthday. It's his 21st birthday, so he should be able to find his mate, right?"

"That's right." He nods, "I'll invite our pack and the neighboring pack as well, more guests is more of a chance he finds his mate."

"Okay, that sounds like a deal." I smile at him.

"He's so sexy, and he's all ours." I hear my wolf in my mind again as I eye Colby up and down, his bare chest on display as the red sheet lays low across his hips, his muscles flexing with every move.

"Come on, let's go see that pretty little wolf in person before you jump my bones again." He chuckles, turning my cheeks a deep shade of crimson.

He stands up, pulling me up with him and walking over to his balcony that has a private staircase down into a private garden.

"I can't wait to shift and feel free for the first time in so long." I hear my wolf.

"Go ahead." Colby smile's reassuringly at me.

I feel my nails start to elongate, my hands turning into claws as my teeth start to sharpen and drop down, my whole body feeling like it's breaking within a split second. I shake out my coat, watching as Colby's eyes widen, his face in shock and I can't help but wonder what he's thinking.

"Your fur..."he trials off, his eyes watching me closely, "it's silver."

I look down at my paws, noticing my coat is a shining silver. The sound of him shifting brings my attention back to him, his black wolf standing tall and confident before me, his blue eyes shining against his dark coat.

"Your brown eyes look like honey against the silver of your fur." I hear his voice in my head, our link now established since we completed the mate bond.

"Want to race?" I ask back, a teasing tone in my voice as I take off, giving myself a head start. He catches up quickly, us running side by side through his garden.

We spent hours in the garden this morning, stretching our wolf legs and playing around with each other. Once we came back into our room we showered and got dressed for the day.

"I have some things I need to take care of in the office today, if you'd like to keep me company." Colby smiles.

"That's okay, I think I'm going to run home and work on a few projects that are due."

"Here, take this until I get your windshield fixed." Colby tosses me the keys.

"What's this?" I ask eyeing the dodge fob in my hands.

"Yours. I bought it for you." His eyes gleam and I can only wonder what it is as he leads us into the garage.  I click the fob watching as a Dodge Challenger revs to life, the blacked out vehicle an absolute orgasm on wheels.

"It's a dodge challenger Scat pack, the 2023 model." His eyes watching me as I basically drool over the car.

"Oh I know what it is, I love it." I smile over at him, "how did you know this was my dream car?"

He shrugs, "lucky guess."

I smile before hopping into the driver seat and revving the engine up, listening to the pipes sing. This car has mad power and I'm about to see how fast it really goes.

"The only rule is you don't get killed in this thing, I know how you like to ride fast." He drops a wink and I kiss him goodbye before pulling out of the garage and out onto the road.

The road back out to town was straight on this end, the perfect place to redline a car like this. I push the gas, the car driving just as smooth at 150mph as it does at 55mph.

I pull up in no time at my house, unlocking the door and heading inside to my office to work on a few projects.

A couple hours later I have everything done for my business and things taken care of for the next little bit. I grab my notebook and make a list of all the things I'm gonna need for Blaine's party. Decorations, food, drinks, and of course a gift. I make the party at a local gymnasium so there is plenty of room, booking it for all of Saturday and Saturday night so we have plenty of time to get everything set up and cleaned up afterwords.

I pick up my phone, dialing Brittany.

"Hello?" She answers after the first ring.

"Hey, I'm planning Blaine's birthday party. Do you want to go shopping with me?"

"Ugh Danny, you know I hate shopping. Especially with you." She groans. She thinks I'm a shopaholic and spend too much time and money shopping.

"Come on Brittany, you're my bestest friend. We need a girls day!" I beg her, giving her my best puppy-pout even though she can't see me.

"Ugh, fine. I am NOT spending 8 hours shopping though." She negotiates.

"That's fine! I'll pick you up in 30 minutes." I exclaim before hanging up. I grab my purse and my list before going out and getting back in the car, revving it up and heading towards her house.
