Chapter Eighteen: The After Induction Party
Aiden’s P.O.V.
I have told the boys that my wolf is antsy and I don’t want anyone drinking too much tonight. I just have a bad feeling. I want all of us to be aware and alert. I am not sure if it is because we know about Blade or what. I know he is here I saw him earlier. The Luna, Mrs. Brennen and Mrs. Sabrina have outdone themselves on my behalf. The yard is little up with some kind of twinkling lights in all the trees, there are scented candles in these pretty jars placed in sand making a walk way of sorts and inside the tents. I am a boy so all I can tell you is wow it is pretty. What is really great though is when we all get there we are severed our meal which is a huge T bone steaks, cooked to order, loaded extra-large baked potatoes, a salad with anything you can imagine in it with a variety of homemade salad dressings and of course sweet tea. The dessert was the biggest cake I have ever seen but I won’t even get into that, let’s say I will have to run and extra mile or two tomorrow. After everyone is through with the meal the tables are cleared and I guess now we party? A D.J. begins to play and it is announced that the bar is open. Within fifteen minutes there are people laughing, dancing, drinking and socializing. I am approached by many people, there are so many it will take a while to keep names straight, and they really kept busy the entire night. I know that Danny is being watched after so I am trying not to stress and keeping my wolf semi-calm. I have already caught a glance of Danny dancing with Landon, Brendon and even Beta Brandon. After about an hour of partying some of the elderly couples in the pack begin to leave and the numbers begin to diminish. John pulls me off to the side to tell me to calm down that he has six of the pack warriors watching Danny incognito in addition to him, Alpha Richard, Beta Brandon, Landon and Brendon. She should be fine and we all want her to have a good time. She and Landon deserve a fun night as they will not be getting a date night soon and tomorrow is going to be ugly!!
Landon’s P.O.V.
Tonight is amazing. Everything is romantic and beautiful. I know that with the threat Danny and I will not have a chance to go out on dates for a while so I am going to make tonight special and treat it as a date. We are going to dance under these pretty lights, I am going to hold her hand and hopefully she will let me steal a kiss or two. Yeah I doubt it but a boy can dream. Here we are outside on the edge of the yard, the scent of vanilla in the air, hmm weird the candles are scented I guess *women*, Danny is in my arms and we are dancing. She is actually letting me hold her close. My wolf is purring. To be able to hold her like this, there are no words. After four of five more songs we head back over towards everyone else. Brendon asks Danny to dance and they do. My wolf isn’t loving it but we noticed she didn’t let him hold her as close as she does us. That has to be a good sign right? While they were dancing I got two beers, one for me, one for Brendon and I ordered a glass of Mascato for Danny. Now the three of us are sitting outside talking and just enjoying the beauty of the night. I am really surprised when the Beta comes and asks Danny if she would dance with him. She does which gives me and Brendon a moment alone. He and I just chat but I know he is hiding something from me. I don’t like secrets and he knows that but I am not going to push. Oh here is my baby girl, she is so pretty tonight. “Danny do you want to walk on the beach for a few minutes?” I asked as sweetly as possible. The beach was only a short walk through the woods behind the pack house, maybe 200 yards or so. “Um yeah that sounds good but I need to let my Dad know because he wants to catch a ride with me because Mom is going to stay after for a while to help your Mom with the cleanup.” She tells me. Perfect as she walks off to talk to her Dad I grab mine and tell him. He assures me that he and John will have people in the woods along the beach but they will be discrete and we will have privacy. He tells me to wait on Danny and then go grab another beer and wine to give him and John a small window to get people where they need to be. “Okay Landon my dad knows. He wants to leave in forty five minutes or an hour so you ready?” Danny asked me. I have to admit she looks like the old shy Danny. She is glancing from me to her feet, she is blushing and her voice is filled with uncertainty. ‘She is scared we are going to reject her as much as we are scared she is going to reject us’ my wolf whispered. “Doll lets go grab one more drink from the bar to take with us okay? Don’t worry the moon is full so we will have plenty of light, I am a wolf and you kick ass so we can make sure you are protected and I will have you back to your dad in forty five minutes, deal?” I asked in a soothing tone, well, I hoped was a soothing tone. She smiled back at me and I noticed the light was back in her pretty eyes. I grabbed her hand and we walked hand in hand to the bar. I got me another beer and ordered her another glass of wine. Hand in hand, both of us talking about nothing at all made our way to the path at the edge of the yard. I held Danny’s hand but was listening and on alert as we walked the 200 yard trail in the woods that lead to the beach. I noticed, Jesse, one of our warriors when we were about half way through the trail but Danny was chatting and thankfully didn’t see him. Finally we made it to the beach and it was breath taking. Yup now I sound like a girl. Danny looked out and gasped. The moon had the beach lit up enough you could see easily and the waves were lapping gently against the shore. We both took off our shoes and left them at the edge of the path. “Danny do you remember when we were little our Mom’s took us to Driftwood Beach at least three of four times a week when it was warm. We played in the sand and in the water while they sunbathed and then they would let us play on the playground that was at the top of the dunes. Can you remember us back then?” I asked sadly as we made our way down the beach the water washing over our feet. “Landon of course I remember those days. I have three pictures of us framed in my room from back then. You loved to push me in the swings, you were so sweet, my best friend. You loved me so much back then and I loved you just as much. I used to wish that we were mates do you remember that? So yes I remember everything. I also remember you gave me my first kiss over summer break between six and seventh grade a week before I got my braces. I was so in love with you *smiles*. I also remember a month into the seventh grade you begin to tease me just like your friends. You no longer took up for me, you joined in. You and your friends called me names, spilled food on me, pushed me into things, started rumors about me, and pushed me down and overall made me afraid to go to school. Do you realize I have not had a single friend since the eighth grade? I kept a few in the seventh grade but by the time we got to the eight grade y’all were so bad that people knew if they hung around me they would be collateral damage. So think it over…. this lasted from the seventh grade until a few weeks ago and we are juniors now, so that is over four years. Landon I remember everything. You have no idea how much it hurt, it still hurts. I never understood how we went from sharing our first kiss to you pushing me down and calling me ugly names. You got to enjoy middle school and high school so far. Me I never get invited to parties, I have never been on a date, never had a, um, real kiss, never went to a school dance or went out to the movies with friends. Why? No one likes me. Through all that Landon I wanted to hate you, I tried to hate you but I don’t, I can’t. Don’t get me wrong this is not an I love you or an I accept you this is I am willing to put forth some effort and see what happens naturally if you are.” Danny said as tears rolled down her sweet face. “Baby I remember most of that too. The first kiss I will never forget. I am so sorry. I am not worthy of your love. I am not deserving of a chance. You have a huge heart because most people in your shoes would have rejected me the first day they found out I was there mate. I promise that I will spend every day that we are together trying to make up for what I have done. I also vow that you will go to parties, go to movies with our friends, go to a school dance, you will have a real kisses and you will go on lots of dates just all with me!” I laugh. I stopped us and turned her to face me. “Baby Girl I am sorry from the bottom of my heart and could be no happier that the Moon Goddess chose you for me. I have been an idiot but you will see that we are meant for each other!” I told her quietly. To my surprise she leaned in and pecked me on my lips. My wolf was howling and I couldn’t stand it. “Baby I just promised you a real kiss and this is about as a romantic setting as it gets. May I kiss you doll?” I asked trying my best not to smirk. She nodded yes and dropped her head to look at our feet. I know she is blushing. ‘Why did you ask? She is our mate and we are the alpha here’ my wolf asked sounding pissy. ‘Do you not remember her kicking our ass the other day? We are trying to win her here not go caveman and have her reject us! Ha now who is the jackass?’ I told my wolf sounding just as pissy as he did. I grabbed my Danny gently by the chin and raised her head until we made eye contact. Wow she is so short compared to me. I leaned down to her and gently brushed my lips to hers two or three times. I couldn’t help it I grabbed her around her waist and pulled her body close to mine and began to kiss her. I kept asking permission for her to let me in but she wasn’t. I had to come up with something so I slid my hands a little lower on her back just above her rear. It was enough that it caused her to gasp and when she did I stuck my tongue in her mouth. It took her a minute to get the hang of it but soon it was the most amazing kiss of my life. She tasted as sweet as she smelled. She had her hands in my hair and I had her pulled as close to my body as she could be. God I wanted her but I knew that pushing her would in turn push her away from me and as innocent as she was it would scare her. We agreed to go slow and that’s what I intend to do. I slowed this kiss down and finally pulled away. She was looking at me with this expression that was like she was in awe. I kept her close to my body and just held her. I was trying to calm my body down by thinking of anything other than the way she smelled, felt and tasted. ‘Do you see how beautiful she is with her lips swollen and red from our kisses? ‘My wolf questioned. ‘I do but remember we have to take it slow. I know you want to mark and mate her, so do I but you smell her innocence, you feel it, we have to go slow or I promise you we will lose her. I lost her once because I was stupid I will never lose her again’ I gently scolded my wolf. “Danny was that good enough for your first kiss? I also think this should be considered as our first date. We have talked, hugged, cuddled and kissed in a romantic setting so I am classifying tonight as our first date. This is my best date ever and the best kiss I have ever experienced so thank you, Doll!” I said with sincerity. “I need to get you back to John before he comes to find me.” I laugh. “Landon thank you for making this special, for taking it slow, for being honest and you are an amazing kisser. Thank you though for not pressuring me to do more. I am sure your wolf was pushing as much as mine was. I think your right though we better go find my dad!” she said to me, her eyes were shining so bright. We walked back to the path hand in hand. We put our shoes back on, went through the path and back to the party. I took Danny to John and pecked her on the cheek and bid her goodnight. She smiled and told me to call her in the morning so we could figure out times as we were told earlier that we were having a meeting in the morning. She knows me so well. I already intended to go talk to dad as soon as she left to see what time we were meeting, why and if I needed to go get Danny or if John would be bringing her. It is scary how much she knows about me and thanks to me being a complete dick I don’t know the little things about her that I would like to. I really don’t deserve her, I swear I don’t, but Lord knows I want her whether I deserve her or not. I need to go find my dad…..
Danny’s P.O.V.
It has been a long day and I happy to be laying here in bed. I just had a shower and am in my comfy tee shirt and booty shorts. Tonight was unreal. My mom, Mrs. Brennen and Luna made the induction incredible for Aiden. I am sad that I didn’t get to dance with him or spend any time with him but the pack were getting to know him and that is just as important. I had so much fun dancing and the beach with Landon. Oh good Lord. It was sweet, it was romantic, and it was well perfect. He is so sexy and he wants me. We talked, we came to an understanding, we discussed our feelings, and it was surreal. He kissed me. Landon kissed me and my wolf and I were both purring. It was amazing. He is amazing. If that was just a first kiss does it get better? I am so happy. I was determined that I was going to make him suffer but now with all that is going on and the way he treats me I am so uncertain. I want to embarrass him, I want him to be humiliate him like he humiliated me but is that the right thing to do? I have been in love with him for as long as I can remember but I just can’t give in. I can’t!! The mating bond is making it so difficult not to just give in to him completely. I also want to keep training; he isn’t going to want that. He will eventually demand that I stop, will I be willing? It is so difficult to love someone so much, someone who has crushed you over and over and to think with your brain and not your heart. I am scared of whoever is out to get me; I am scared of mating, scared of rejection and scared of him hurting me just like he has for the last four years. I Danielle Linkin am scared of everything right now but I refuse to show it to anyone. I know Landon will call me first thing in the morning to tell me what is going on so that is one less thing to worry about thank God. I am exhausted emotionally and physically and just want to go to sleep. I feel the tears as they begin to seep from my eyes and I cry until there are no tears left. I really just want to forget everything and go to sleep. So I do and to know surprise I dream of Landon and of me. Some were good dreams some were not. I was confused even in my sleep. Moon Goddess please help me.
