Alone H.S.

Chapter 9: Bringing Her Back

Lily -

I woke up, feeling sore from all the running I'd done yesterday, but no longer exhausted.

The sun was just rising and giving the woods a beautiful orange glow. All the spiderwebs looked like strings of gems, and the dew on the ground and trees looked like shiny diamonds, reflecting the sunlight.

But what was even more breathtaking than that, was the feeling of my mate, laying beside me. Keeping me close to him. It was definitely the most wonderful feeling i'd ever felt before.

I don't know how he really feels about me right now, or why he came after me. But I do know that he risked his life to save mine. He alone stood up to all those rogues, when he could have just left me for dead.

I thought he didn't care about me?

He suddenly gets up from the ground and stretches, letting out a tired yawn. Did he stay awake all night for me?

He shakes his fur and looks down at me with those big beautiful green eyes of his, and I honestly wish I could just stay here like this for forever.

He pushes me lightly with his muzzle, and I slowly stand up. I'm still tired and don't want to get up. But when he pushes me along, I hurry and get upright. Well, as "upright" as a wolf can get on four legs.

He starts to walk away, and stops to look behind himself at me. He waits there, until I finally catch on and follow him.

We walk side-by-side all the way I'd ran yesterday. Through the mud puddles, through the briar bushes, through everything.

And Harry never left my side.

**********

I had started to believe we would never get back to Harry's territory and to be honest, I was afraid of when we would.

Would he just put me back in that little house and ignore me again?

But we finally reached his packhouse, the both of us now muddle, fur matted, leaves sticking to us, we were basically two very messy wolves. Who were tired all over again.

I stopped following Harry when he started walking up the steps to the porch of the packhouse, to afraid to follow him. Would he tell me not to touch anything again?

He turned back to face me and tilted his head to the side as if asking why I wasn't behind him.

I simply stood there and ducked my ears and tail. How else could I tell him I was afraid to follow him when I couldn't speak? He whined and nodded for me to follow.

The frog door flew open and Eleanor's mate, Louis walked out.

"Harry! Where the hell were you all night? We've had everyone-"

Harry growled, cutting Louis off and louis held the door open for the both of us filthy wolves to walk into the otherwise very clean house.

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

Once we were inside, Harry left me with Eleanor who showed me where I could take a shower and I was very grateful for that. I shifted back to human form and took a nearly two hour long shower. But the whole time, my ins wandered to why would Harry have come looking for me? And why did he bring me back here?

Finally stepping out of the shower, I realized I had no clothes to change into. Well, clean ones anyway.

There were two doors in the bathroom. One going back to the hall that Eleanor had led me through to get in here, and the other a mystery to me. Maybe there would be clothes in whatever room it led to?

Wrapping the towel that Eleanor had given me tightly around myself, I opened the door and cautiously walked into the adjoined room.

It appeared to be a bedroom, with two other doors than the one I was coming from, a large bed in the middle of the room, a dresser, a bedside table, and a closet that was left opened. But I didn't even have to wonder who's room this was. My mate's scent was making my wolf relax and hyper at the same time. This is Harry's room. My mate's bedroom.

Suddenly, one of the doors in the room open and Harry walls in. His hair almost black by being wet, and drooping down around his face reaching just past his shoulders. His chest bare, and wet, displaying his many tattoos. The only clothes he's wearing are grey sweatpants that hang low on his waist. He's looking down at his hands as he walks in, but then stops and looks up at me. His eyes widen for only a moment before he seems to relax and walk slowly, closer and closer to me.

And I'm just wearing a towel...

"I-I-I just c-came in here l-looking for-" I stutter pitifully, before my voice just gives out. And I stand there awkwardly, holding onto my towel.

"I'm guessing you've got no clothes?" Harry's smirks. But it's not like a evil smirk, more like a happy/playful smirk.

I nod.

He walks over to the open closest and pulls out some things which I'm assuming are shirts and pants and stuff. And holds them out to me.

And stupid me...reaches out to take them from him.

Leaving no hands on the towel.

And the door opens at just that moment.

Suddenly, the towel in on the floor, along with the clothes Harry had been handing to me. And I'm thrown into the bed, Harry covering me entirely with his body. (And kind of crushing me, too)

"Louis, get out!" Harry shouts from above me, and I look over to see Louis rush out of the room. Looking like he's...laughing?

The door slams shut, and it leaves me and Harry staring at each other. Him above me, and me caught beneath him.

His green eyes stare into my blue eyes and the green in his eyes darkens. His state is so intense I can't bring myself to look away.

And my wolf is being sent into a full-in frenzy. And I'm grateful I'm in control over her, because she's wanting things that I'm just not ready for right now. But I can't say that I don't really want those things too.

Especially right now, with my half-naked mate pressed against my naked body.

"There are so many things I want to do to you." Harry whispers softly.

That doesn't calm my wolf down at all.

"Why are you always pushing me away?" I ask, whispering.

Harry sighs and I swear his hand brushed against my side...on purpose...

"One day...I'll tell you. But right now-" I don't even let him finish. My wolf wanted some sort of contact with our mate, and I was too.

I kissed him. Full-on, running my hands through his hair, wrapping my legs around his waist, kissing.

And he kissed back.
