Book of HOPE

Chapter 5 The Kiss

Chapter 5

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.

Bruce Lee

The scent of lotus blossoms tickled my nose before my green blue eyes saw the field of flowers. I stopped running and slowed down to a trot, feeling the soft dirt under my paws. My large head lifted to howl praise at our double moons, Thanking the goddesses for our peace in the northern continent. The lotus petals glowed with the reflection of the moons' lights.

Where there was lotus blossoms, there was water. Turning my head slightly, the smell of salt water came over me. Mmmh I remember this place. I use to come here to remind myself of Elisabet, when the stress of running the packs became overwhelming. Mmmh the ocean breeze ruffled my fur. My body stiffened as her ghostly fragrance of lilies wafted around me, carried by the breezes.

Howls of sadness and longing tore through me. Confusion by  my mate's fragrance grew stronger. "Mine" I growled as my eyes darkened to emerald green, drinking in the image before me.

 A woman stood in the lotus field, her long rayven hair dancing with the breezes. She wore a lamprey scale leggings that reflected the moons' lights and grey shift shirts. Slanted almond shaped chocolate eyes, eyes full of heartbreak stared at me. Elisabet was wary, her eyes held wisdom and seemed older and serious. Her spirit seemed broken. Physically just as beautiful as the last time I had seen her as a girl.

I trotted to her, my fur rubbing against her side. She fell over on her butt with a laugh. I laid down by her and cupped my head into her lap. We stayed this way as she stroked my fur. "I missed you." she whispered into my ear as she scratched behind them. My chest rumbled in contentment. 

If this was a dream, I wanted to hold her this time. I shifted to my human form. Liz was looking at me with a curious expression on her face, staring at my nakedness. Her face was flushed a pretty shade of pink. I smelled something coming off her body in waves, the sweet smell of arousal. My manhood reacted and unfurled into full size hardness that lewdly pointed at her lithe form.

I felt her hand caress my chest and them my stomach muscles. Her lips slightly open beckoning for mine. When her pink tongue licked, then bit down on her bottom lips, a nervous habit she still had. I was lost, just like years ago.

Crushing her to my chest as I lifted her body to my lap so I could meet her lips with mine. Her mouth tasted sweet as she opened up to my tongue's exploration.

My body was hot with need for Elisabet.

Liz against the wall, beneath me, under me, bent over, on her knees. My mind imagining all the ways to have her.

I heard her gasping for air and let her lips go. Ragged breaths sucking air into her lungs and then the most wonderful word from her swollen red lips. "Mack"

"Yes EIisabet, my love" I smiled encouragingly to her. But she hesitantly backed away, she seemed afraid of me. Lust pulsated through my blood. Why didn't she want me? 

Could she not tell our bodies fit together. I love her. Wait did I just think that. Her lips so sweet. Oh my goddesses, she is my mate. Mine. I look into her face and touch her petal soft lips with my fingers as I cup her face. Liz steps back from me and whisper softly. "I'm not ready Mack."

Quickly covering my erection with her top shift she handed him. Reminding myself she was here still. Mmh her arousal and scent mixed together smelt so good. I felt myself harden again .

Now I understand why the vampires on our side of the rebellion said Liz's blood smelt really amazing, irresistible. Delicious like everything sweet and pure, goodness if it had a tangible smell.

That's why she made good bait on finding the Lamprey's. They were attracted to her smell. Liz seemed to be immune to them, they could not drain her. As they tried, she could lock eyes with them and something would happen to their bodies.

Liz said she ignited their souls. It was a terrible accident that we found she could do this.

"Liz becareful," Traggert watched as Liz leave in her graceful silent way. He laughed to himself thinking of the strange word Liz called herself, n The bodies would shed their ebony scales and they would lose their cold faces. The lampreys became balls of light.  My soul mate was really here. Feeling my wolf trying to take control, wanting to claim his mate. 

"Where have you been my Elisabet?"

  It was written in the history and legends of Terra, in a large volume hidden away... THE BOOK OF HOPE, IN THE YEAR Of THE RED STAR Of TERRA... about SOUL MATES. The Greatest Father knew it was not good for most of his creations to be alone, he wanted them bear offspring. He paired them off arbitrarily. They came to him with complaints that their mates were not compatible.

The Greatest Father inquired of his son The Light, if he had any thoughts on the subject. The Light asked his Greatest Father, "What made his creations complete, made them special?" "Why son, their souls." The Light said, "My Greatest Father, you always had the answer." The Greatest Father was overjoyed. He made his creations only have partial souls. When they found the one that shared their soul, they would be truly completed.

Now the Greatest Father is a busy and wise "man". He believes in delegation. He looked at all his creations to find those who could choose the mates to make two halves whole. The Light nominated the moons angels and a few minor angels. The Greatest Father found them acceptable.

From then on, the moon angels where called the moon goddesses and the minor angels where called the Fates. Now angels have no need for mates, but occasionally in haven, angels fell in love with other angels or other creations and craved each other.

These were also called soul mates. Hybrid children were born sometimes from these unions. The Greatest Father welcomed these children into the Haven family.

Some hybrids had special gifts that the Fates or Moon Goddesses gave them. Two special hybrids where beyond remarkable. One became The Light, also known as Great Father, the son of The Greatest Father. The other one, The Greatest Father did not reveal. 

The Darkness gathering for war, believing they would win.
