Forever Yours

Chapter 22

Chase's POV

Gazing down at our Dianna, Wolf and I agreed that she had to be the most beautiful sight we have ever beheld. Mother moon shone down on her, making her hair fall in glossy waves past her shoulders, framing her heart-shaped face. Her eyes were glittering with unshed tears. Her face flushed. This very sight, it is as though she was a virgin goddess sent to Earth.

Her face was tilted towards me. However, I could tell that her mind is miles away. Smiling, I reached out and cupped her face. She jerked and her eyes immediately snapped to mine.

"You daydream too much, Dianna." I murmured to her.

A flush appeared on her cheeks but before she could protest, still cupping her face, I rested my forehead against hers. She sighed and closed her eyes. I smiled. Our mate. Once our souls are bound together, we will finally belong together.

Filling my tone with all the love I am feeling, I whispered to her, "Breathe to breathe."

"Breathe to breathe." She repeated after me.

I released her face and reached down to held her small, delicate hands in mine. Then, I drew our combined hands to my chest, letting her feel that my heart beats only for her.

"Heart to heart."

"Heart to heart."

Then, I unclasped my hands. Slowly, I got onto my knees. I then buried my face against her belly. Taking a deep breathe in, I took in her unique scent. Wolf shuddered, his head tilted back, his tongue hanging out, savouring her scent. Tonight, once our soul is bound to hers, her scent would start to change, combined with my scent, marking her as mine, ours.

Wrapping my arms around her waist, I said, "Soul to soul."

"Soul to soul."

I froze. The moment the last word left her lips, the energy that had been gathering within me, spread outwards. I felt as though every cells in my body had been energized. The feeling when I had my first change, it feels like nothing compared to this. This feeling of my energy or soul using with Dianna's, words cannot be used to describe the joy I am feeling right now.

As described by many mated pairs, I found myself looking into her soul. I looked around in awe. It’s like in space where I am surrounded in darkness that is lit with billions of stars. These stars represents her fragments of memory. Now that we are bounded together, we no longer have any secrets between us. By just touching the flashing lights, I can feel what she is feeling at that time.

Not only that, with this binding of souls, I can now speak with her telepathically. This is one of the many advantages of being mated. Another would be I can feel what she is feeling at any time.

Now, as I went through her memories, I nearly cried. From a young girl who was brought up showered generously with her parents' love, only to be casted aside, all alone after her parents had pass away. The shock of it must have been unbearable. I vowed to myself that I would be her source of happiness from now on. I would make sure that she would never be alone again.

Then, what seemed like eternity, our souls are finally bound together. I was drawn back to reality. I have seen into her soul and understood that Dianna, our Dianna, truly loves me as fate had dictated. I slowly got up and looked down at her. Her face was still flushed and she appeared to be in a daze. Just as quickly, her eyes snapped back to attention and she looked back at me, love shinning in her gaze. 

Slowly, I slipped my arms around her waist, leaned down and kissed her full on the lips. Dianna let out a soft, satisfied sigh as her lips parted for me. Automatically, she then wrap her arms around my neck. I slipped my tongue in and tangled with hers. She moaned softly while I groaned. She tastes so sweet. Like a juicy ripe strawberry. Hugging her tighter against me, I proceed to make her entire world spin by bestowing her the most passion filled kiss.

This kiss was much better that the one we shared in the pack house kitchen. This kiss was filled with possession, of final surrender to each other and the knowledge that we finally belong to one another. Had the pack members not howled in triumph, we would still have continued kissing, lost in each other's embrace. We parted and looked at each other breathlessly. Laughing softly, we nuzzled each other, rubbing our nose together.

Within seconds, Cassie, Tess, Jessie, mum and father had surrounded me, congratulating us of our mating. Laughing, I attempted to protect my Dianna but carrying her and running away from the tearful crowd, trying to suffocate her. Shouts of laughter echoed behind us as our pack members laughingly demanded that I return them their alpha female.

Finally, we managed to escape to the safety of the pack house garden shed. Dianna was laughing so hard that tears were streaming down her face. Just then, I decided to test our newly formed mating bond.

'Dianna, are you alright?' I thought to her.

She looked up and said, "I am fine. That was fun."

A huge and smug smile broke out across my face. It worked!

"You heard my thoughts didn't you." I grinned.

Dianna looked puzzled. Her face soon cleared as she understood what I meant. "You mean you can just speak to me telepathically?"

I nodded.

'Can you hear me?' Dianna thought to me.

'Of course.'

Dianna smiled and hugged me tightly. 'I love you.'

'As I do for you.'

For a long time, we stayed in the shed, basking in each other's presence. Then, I reluctantly released her. As much as mine and Father's pack members respect our privacy, if I do not show myself soon, I am sure that they would be more than happy to intrude and drag me off for the hunt. Dianna looked back at me, her eyes knowing. She must have felt my intentions.

'Good luck.'

'I will do my best for you.'
