In the Moon's Light

Chapter 10: Breakfast?

Kat's POV:

**************************************************************************************************

"Kat, I want you. I need you now."

"Oh Michael, I want you too."

His lips slam against mine as I wrap my legs around his waist. He grabs my butt as he carries me to his bed, making me gasp with pleasure. I curl my fingers through his curly hair and continue to kiss him, tasting him and breathing in his scent making sure that his is covering me and mine is covering him. Mine. I growl softly into his ear,  which only seems to drive him wild. He breaks from my lips to take his shirt off and then slams his lips back to mine. I can't help but claw his back as he starts kissing down my neck onto my shoulder.

His lips are moving up from my shoulder along my collarbone, up my neck back to my lips. I nip at his bottom lip playfully as I run my hands down his chest feeling his abs as I travel further south. He moans and pulls away from me, looking down at with his sparkling blue eyes. He wraps his hand in my hair, and pulls my lips back to his. I start to moan as he begins kissing me back down my neck. I playfully nip at his neck, picking out the spot I will mark him as mine, and I hear him moan in response as I begin to unbutton his pants.

I feel his hand slide down my stomach and stop at the hem of my shirt. I arch my back as I feel his hand start to go under the hem of my shirt and travel up to the bottom of my bra and underneath it. All while he continues to suck and kiss my neck.

 "Yes, oh Michael...."

 I gasp for breath as his hand moves my bra aside and.........

***********************************************************************************************

KNOCK.KNOCK.KNOCK.

I jump up wide awake and alert as I hear the sound. I'm confused, why am I here where is Michael what the......wait.......that was just a dream.

Yes just a dream, for now. Now don't you start today, I'm really just not in the mood.

"Umm..hello, Kat? Are you there?"

I change as quietly as I can, but cant help the whimper that escapes when I stand up on my leg. Looks like I'll still be needing the crutches today after all.......damn. Told you we didn't have enough blood to heal and leave today. Great, just what I wanted to hear first thing in the morning, an I told you so from my annoying wolf.

"Yes, I'm in the bathroom. I was just about to hop in the shower."

I really should try acting one day, I'm a good enough liar I think I could be great. Not if it means leaving him. Oh my Luna, Crescent not right now.

"Oh crap.....I mean......I'm sorry....I mean, if I had known you were in there I wouldn't have come in. I'm sorry. I brought some fresh clothes, I'll just leave them on the bed. Before I go.......umm after you shower would you like to have breakfast with me downstairs?"

He is so sweet, listen to how embarrassed he was. Please, can't we have breakfast with him at least. Please, I'll be good I promise. Please, please, please pleassseee. Ok, ok just stop whimpering and acting like a baby.

I'm rewarded by a happy yap noise, so at least she is satisfied, hopefully enough to leave me alone for a while. This whole Michael issue is really starting to get on my nerve. I mean we don't even know if he could be our link yet, but she's already acting if he is. I mean there is something between us, but I don't think it's a link connection, not yet anyway.

"Yeah, sure."

"O-Okay. I'll see you downstairs in a bit."

I can hear his smile through the door it's so big. I hear the bedroom door close and a "yes" being victory sounded outside the door. I can't help but laugh at that.  A human would never have been able to hear that, so I guess wolf hearing comes in handy every once and a while. Your welcome.

I roll my eyes as I turn the water on, as hot as it will go and get in. I wash the remaining dried blood from the beating off my body. I shampoo my hair, and then just stand there as the hot water runs over my body. I use the body wash that is in the shower and find myself tracing my old scars. Some of the older ones are actual war wounds, while the more recent ones were pack fights that I started with one wolf for some reason or another.

I was one the strongest wolves in the pack, and that's not me bragging. I was even up for an alpha position but turned it down after.........Nate. Sometimes I wonder what would have happened differently if I hadn't turned it down. If I had become an alpha what would have happened?

The same thing.......neither one of us wanted to spill any more innocent blood. I'm not evil you know, I just can't help myself sometimes when I need blood. Neither are you, not the real you.

I smile and comfort Crescent. I know she isn't evil, and that's what is scary. The wolf part of me isn't evil, it's the other part of me that is. It scares us at times. It was what had control when we lost ourselves in our grief those five years. It scared a lot of lou garous.

 I hear my stomach growl and remember that I was supposed to meet Michael downstairs for breakfast. Oh no.......his scent is going to be even stronger today. They all will be thanks to the blood last night. Guess I'll be breathing through my mouth for the rest of the day. Yay.

I turn off the water and step out of the shower, with the stupid crutches. Oh Luna why couldn't it have been my arm. I feel kind of guilty after saying that, knowing I should have thanked her last night for saving us.

What if Luna wants us to be with Michael? After all she is the one that matches us with our links.

I don't answer her, because I know she is right. I'm just hoping that Luna didn't do that. I blow dry my hair and go back out in the bedroom wrapped in a towel. Oh my Luna......his scent is everywhere. It smells so good.....so heavenly....I could almost...NO! He is not food! 

I snap out of it surprised at Crescent's reaction. Usually it's me telling her to snap out of it. I apologize to her as I inspect the new clothes. I have to admit they are warmer, cleaner, and fresher looking than mine. I don't even have to try to talk myself into wearing them. I go back into the bathroom and brush my teeth before giving myself and Crescent the "talk."

Alrighty little missie, you are going to go down there and have breakfast like a normal human. you will focus on the food and the conversation, not him or his perfectly curved lips. You will act as normal as possible, the walls will stay up because Luna knows with our luck the mind-reader will be there. Do not mention the kiss at all, do not initiate another. Act your age, not the age of your hormones. Keep your emotions in check and begin to think about where to get more blood supplies.

Shit..... I really do have to think about that. Cause now I have four days to heal until Luna's Celebration on Saturday. Okay, let's do this. I walk back out of the bathroom and out into the hallway. I hate these stupid crutches.

I walk down the hallway and find the elevator, I press the button and wait to see if it's working. Thank the moon it is, no more stairs for a while. I press the main level button, getting off in I'm guessing the front room or living room we walked through last night. I don't see anyone around, though I sure do smell some of them.

Breath through your mouth, breath through your mouth, everything will be just fine. I sniff out the kitchen before I return to my breathing rule. I guess school must already by in session because I have yet to see anyone. I hear their heartbeats, so I know that they are there somewhere. I find myself heading towards a door and I hear people behind it and then I hear him laughing. The sound almost makes my knees buckle. I guess I found the kitchen and even a few of the students. Well let's get this breakfast over with.
