The Wolf Hunt

Ten

To say that was the best sleep ever, would be an understatement.
I slept like a baby. That was still in the womb, the warm arms around my waist being the placenta. Okay. Tone down the weirdness. To put it bluntly, I slept really well.

I squint at the moonlight as I slowly stretch my body. The moons half full, and looks as beautiful as ever. I've always been obsessed with the moon, where as most Hunters dislike it as it symbolises the rising of the Wolves.

Back in middle ages where the Hunters and Wolves were born from sorcery; the Wolves were made from the moon and the Hunters from the stars, that's why each Hunter has the mark of a star on their body. Mine is placed on the inside of my hip, its a light silver colour, whereas most are black. I've never been told why mines different, but that doesn't mean I don't adore it.

"Good Evening, beautiful," Zave smiles at, causing me to smile back. "Are you talking to the moon? I always knew Mutts were slaves to it," Zave's chest rumbles out a growl in disapproval. "We aren't Mutts," His eyes flash gold and his alpha aura washes over me. "Shit!" Zave's eyes are normal again and his eyes stare at me guiltily. "I'm so sorry, my wolf just doesn't like the disrespect of our kind,"

"It's okay, I'm sorry, its just what I've been raised to call you," I wince, that makes me sound like even more of a prick. "So, you mind being disrespected by me, but not your pack?" I question.

"Can we not talk about that?" He asks sweetly, so I let it be for now.

"I guess we should get up now," I yawn, turning to step out of the bed. "Or...." Zave's arms wrap around my belly and pull me back towards him. "We could just stay here for a bit," He whispers gently in my ear, causing shivers to run down my spine. His body reacts to my shiver with a growl of approval and he snuggles his head in the crook of my neck, breathing in my scent.

It feels nice to be in his arms. I feel warm and safe. Like nothing in this world will ever hurt me, and he'll protect me no matter what, just like I'd protect him. No harm would come to my mate, and no harm would come to me.

"So how come my troops like you?" I turn my head slightly to try and look in his eyes. His eyes are dark with arousal. "Why wouldn't they like me," His voice is husky in my ear.

"Because you're a wolf," I state, my voice shaky from lust.

"I can't help that, but your troops don't hold it against me, I haven't killed any innocents, just the guilty, my pack however... That doesn't matter, but I'm just glad I have you now," Zave's nuzzles his head in my neck, breathing in my scent, throwing me to cloud 9. I turn gently and peck him on the lips, he growls when I pull away, but doesn't do anything to stop me. I lean my forehead on his and sigh.

"I'm really hungry..." I whisper. Zave laughs, "and here I was thinking you were about to admit your undying love for me," Zave laughs again, the sound like a melody in my ear. "Maybe next time, but right now, I'm just really hungry,"

"Let's get up then," Zave replies, still chuckling lightly.

"I need to get dressed," I groan. "Then get dressed," he groans back mocking me. "But your here," I groan louder in return. "I've seen you naked," he points out. "I was drunk then!" I reply hastily, "I wasn't!" He laughs back. "You were going to take advantage of me drunk?!"

"What? No of course not! I ... It was-"

"You should of seen your face!" I laugh, the mate bond has a strong pull and it was most likely that he was overcome with lust, so I don't blame him. "Bitch," he mumbles."Far from it actually," I wink at him as I get up. "Now get out,"

"I think I'll just wait in your ensuit until you're done," he groans as he climbs out of bed. "Good boy," I call to his back sarcastically, to which he flips me the bird.

Once he's gone I change out my clothes and underwear and grab my favourite bra and pants. Next I put on a white skin tight top which is low cut. Just to tease him. Finally as I don't own a skirt, I slide on some black shorts to go with the top. Before putting on some frilly socks and black and white converse trainers. I run a brush through my hair and clean my face with a baby wipe. Before putting my hair in a bun and adding winged eyeliner and mascara to my face. Perfect.

"You can come in now!" I call out to the bathroom door. To which Zave immediately walks in. "You look breath taking," He tells me. Looking stunned and his eyes dark with lust. I blush at the compliment and look away. "Do you need any clothes or anything?" I ask looking back up to his face. His gaze too powerful so instead I stare at his chin. "Nah its cool, Derek gave me some," He turns to my bed and bends down, taking out a gym bag as he does. He places it on the bed and unzips it.

He takes off his shirt and my jaw drops. He's getting changed in front of me. He slides off his trousers and kicks them off. He reaches for his boxers- "Do you mind? I'm trying to get changed but your drool is distracting me," I touch my mouth quickly, relieved there's no drool, then glare at Zave as I rush into the bathroom.

I splash water on my face horrified that I look like a tomato. Once my face cools down I knock on the door for the all clear before leaving the bathroom again.

Zave sports a black tight top which accentuates his muscles and tight denim shorts. Before some Nike trainers. "You look... Nice," Nice Alexis, really? "Thanks," He smiles at the compliment, "Ready?"

"Let's go," I nod as we head to the door.
