The Wolf and Researcher

Part 6

Izuku didn’t know what she was doing, but she needed answers, that much she was certain. So, determined, she marched into the town’s pharmacy, grabbing 10 different pregnancy tests before walking towards the register. Ignoring the weird look the cashier gives her and quickly carrying her purchases to her car before climbing in. Feeling someone’s eyes on her. 

‘What are you doing, Deku?’ Katsuki’s voice says in her mind, making her groan, before a thought pops up. 

‘Can I send him messages?’ 

So, with a new resolve, she focuses, trying to feel her link to the werewolf, not happy that she likes the feeling of having him with her all the time so much. 

‘Kacchan.’ She thinks, focusing on sending the thought to her mate. 

‘Deku finally figured it out, huh. Didn’t take you long. Good.’ He thinks back, his smug voice making her growl annoyed. ‘Now answer my question.’ He demands as she backs up her car, driving away, feeling a warm pleasant sensation building in her chest.

‘I was buying a pregnancy test, if you must know. I still don’t believe that I am pregnant.’ She replies quickly, glaring at the road. ‘I shouldn’t like this so much. He raped me! He’s a fucking monster! So why in the hell am I so happy all of a sudden about all this!’ She thinks, scolding herself. 

‘I heard that.’ He grumbles back, clearly offended and not amused. ‘So, what if I am a monster! Crap like that shouldn’t matter, plus you were clearly meant for me!’ He growls back. 

Izuku grips her steering wheel tighter, knuckles turning white from frustration. 

‘That’s not the point! I didn’t choose this! I didn’t choose any of this!’ She screams at him, tears pricking her eyes. 

‘You came back, didn’t you!’ He yells back. 

She has to pull over onto one of the mountain side roads when her vision starts blurring too much from the tears, a silent sob trying to break free. Once she’s parked, Izuku stumbles into the forest, coming to a beautiful view. A rocky outcropping, the forest spanning out before her, white fluffy clouds moving across the sky. A perfect day, but that was the last thing on her mind. 

Falling to the ground, Izuku lets the tears fall and an angry growl rumble in her throat. Fist gripping harshly to the grass under her. 

“I didn’t have a choice! My career demanded I come back! What was I supposed to do, say no?!” The sobbing greenette screams. 

“Was there really no part of you that wanted this?”

Emerald eyes snap open. Katsuki was there, standing behind her, looking depressed down at her shaking form. Slowly, he comes to kneel beside her. Not liking the sour scent of distress emanating from his mate. 

Her sobs gradually stop. Sitting up, wiping her face with her shirt sleeve before looking up at him. Her bloodshot eyes meet his anxious scarlet ones. She looks away, towards the view in front of her. 

Did she want it? Sure, at first, she felt so violated and ashamed, but… after the second time, she couldn’t deny the pleasure and desire she had felt and still feels towards the man. The power and possessive nature he displayed over her when she had returned. Despite the shocking change from wolf to werewolf, she also couldn’t deny she found him sexy and was extremely aroused. She had never told anyone that she had a thing for furries and she would take that knowledge to her grave. 

With a deep relenting sigh, she looks at him, timidly. 

“The first time I didn’t and felt dirty afterwards, but after… It wasn’t… bad…” Izuku says, finally relenting the information, not liking how much joy the hybrid man took from it. His ears, which were once down, were now up and his tail was wagging gently. 

‘Fuck, that shouldn’t be absolutely adorable.’ She thinks, having to look away. 

“That doesn’t mean I trust you now. You will have to earn my trust and if you did get me pregnant, you sure as hell better take care of me! And I’m not going to stop working just because you’re mister alpha! I love my job and my job is why I’m here!” She scolds, making sure to keep the fact she was already going to come back because of their connection and her mind constantly yelling ‘mate’ at her the longer she was away from the now scoffing blonde, to herself.  

“I would never leave you! You are my mate and you're stuck with me! If that is what you want, then I will court the hell out of ya, Deku! As for your job, I would never stop you from doing what you love! Although, I will be going with you to make sure you are safe and then when winter hits, I will do it for you. Our pups will need you, therefore, I will do it.” Katsuki says, getting in close, his nose nearly rubbing against hers. Izuku sucks in a breath, face dusting with a light pink at the declaration and proximity. 

Gulping down the building saliva, Izuku meets his intense gaze with her own, straightening her back. 

“You better.” Wiping the last of the tears from her face, she stands, wiping the grass and dirt off her pants, before turning and walking back to her car. “I’ll meet you back at home.” 

Katsuki lets out a relieved sigh, watching her drive away. It felt nice that she was giving him an open invitation, but still, something was eating at his gut, telling him something was wrong. 

‘Does this mean I have to visit those damn extras? Fuck, ya, it does, fuck!’ He groans, pulling at his blonde spikes. With another annoyed groan, he shifts to his wolf form and heads back to his pack, to get love advice from the only idiots he will ever confide in.
