Changes (Book 3)

Chapter 26

---Alyssa

After Jr. opened his birthday presents and after dinner, Matt and I were cleaning up and getting Jr. ready for bed.  I walked into the bathroom, Matt was drying Jr. off after his bath.  Matt was in a pair of basketball shorts and that was it.  I will never get tired of his muscular chest and washboard abs.  He was much more tan than I was.  He jogged daily and did a large amount of outside work when he wasn't at the office.

"Like what you see?"  he asked helping Jr. with his pull-ups.

"Nothing special."  I teased.  He put Jr. in his Tigger pajamas and picked him up.

"There's still more than enough hot water."  he said.  I jumped feeling him pinch my side as he walked by.  He went to tuck Jr. in.  I went into the bedroom and grabbed a some silky underpants and the silky pajamas Matt bought me while he was on his last business trip.  I don't like to wear certain underclothes when I slept.  I went into our personal bathroom and grabbed a towel from the bathroom closet.  Matt walked in with a pair of sleeping pants and leaned against the wall.  I was putting my hair up in a messy bun when he entered.  "I like your hair down."

"I already washed it like before you came home."

"Awe, okay."  he said dropping his shorts.  "We can shower together right?"  I nodded.  He reached around me and started with my jeans.  He kissed behind my ear sliding his hands down the inside of the front of my jeans.  He moved his lips down my exposed neck pushing my jeans down with his hands.  He switched sides getting my mark.  He moved his hands and took mine placing them under his as he returned to what he was previously doing.

I jumped when the phone rang.  I was facing him now so upon my jump, I stumbled into him knocking him into the wall.  He chuckled and steadied me.  "I'll start the shower."  he said.  I grabbed the phone from the bedside table and answered it. 

"Hello?"

"I need to speak with my nephew."

"May I ask who's calling?"

"His uncle Warren."  I held the phone out to Matt.  He took it putting a towel around his lower half.

"Hello?"  I got in the shower and decided washing my hair wouldn't hurt.  I as massaging the lather into my scalp when I felt hot hand cover mine.  "Allow me."  he said.  I looked over my shoulder and saw that his wolf was in control his eyes weren't the usual gold color when his wolf was in control, they were black.  I swallowed my feeling of fear and he rinsed the shampoo from my hair.

"W-who's Warren?"

"No one important."  he said with a growl.  He pushed me against the shower wall.  I cringed as the cold metal of the shower knobs hit my back.  I squeezed my eyes shut waiting for something bad to happen.  He stumbled back and he was gone instantly.  I opened my eyes and found myself alone.  I finished up and went to bed.  I was curled in a ball fighting sleep because I was worried about my husband.

Around midnight, I was asleep holding Matt's pillow and his jacket resting over me.  I was having a nightmare and when I heard the door shut, I woke up scared half to death.  I started coughing followed by my sudden intake of breath.  Matt brushed his fingertips along my jaw.  I calmed my breathing and turned my head to Matt.  "It's okay.  I went for a run and was on my way back when I heard your dream.  I'm sorry for scaring you."  He said.  "I won't let my wolf hurt you."
