The Warrior (continuing from optimistic_dreamer)

Resisting

When I came back into Olivia's and my room I saw her standing on the balcony talking into her phone. Instantly longing shot through me and I had to grip the door handle tighter in order not to run towards my mate. The evening breeze blew her long blond hair, which she now wore loose, to the right side of her neck. My wolf zerod in on her now bare neck and I could hear a crack coming from the door handle. She turned around just now noticing me, smiled at me and I could see relief in her eyes.

We worried her my wolf accused me.

Immediately I made my way towards her and pressed a kiss onto her forehead. Olivia leaned into my touch and because of our proximity I could hear that she was on the phone with her sister, because I could clearly hear Sara's chattering.

When I wrapped my arm around her waist I noticed that Olivia had changed into white jeans and a green blouse that matched her eyes. I growled softly, because the jeans emphasised every lovely curve my mate had. I let myself calm down by her vanilla-cinnamon scent, but I knew that her smell would not be able to set me at ease for long.

My wolf clawed in my mind, wanting control and I tried my hardest to resist him.

"So how's Luke's family?", my mate asked Sara.

Glad that she brought me back into reality I kissed her forehead again and figured I should change before dinner as well.

I left Olivia to her conversation and went to shower.

After several minutes I exited the bathroom just with jeans on, because I forgot my shirt in our room.

I thought Olivia was still on the phone, but when I entered she stood in the middle of them room rooted to the spot and staring wide eyed at me.

"I ah forgot my shirt.", I tried to explain my current lack of clothing.

Actually my wolf and I were simmering with excitement because our mate was...well...ogling us.

Olivia's cheeks turned red and she turned around. Her hands were formed into tight fists as if she had to control herself to not run up to me and touch me.

I moaned inwardly at this imagination and my wolf tried to push me into giving in to our mate's urges.

Suddenly I was directly behind Olivia and I knew that she realized how close I was because she shivered lightly. Delighted by her affection I put both my hands onto her waist and whispered in her hear: "You can stare all you want baby. I'm all yours!"

Again she shivered but more strongly. Olivia turned her head so that she coud look in my eyes and when I saw the pure longing in her eyes I lost control.

My head dipped lower so that I could kiss her soft lips and my mate met me halfway.

It was definitely not a gentle kiss, but one filled with passion and yearning.

Before we could do anything we could regret, a knock on the door brought both of us back to our senses and we pulled away from each other .

We were both panting and Olivia's face was a bit flushed.

"You're so gorgeous!", I told her and was rewarded with another red flush.

I quickly searched for my tshirt, pulled it on and told whoever was in front of the door to come in.

Mason and Jake entered and Mason said unimpressed by Olivia's swollen lips: "You two kids should keep this door open, I'm not ready yet to become an uncle!"

Olivia smiled softly at him and told him: "I think you both would be great uncles."

"Really? I mean me of course, but him? Did I tell you about the one time we left him with a baby?", Jake remembered the incident involving Mason, a baby and the biggest mess you can imagine.

"That wasn't even my fault, this baby was pure evil!", Masont tried to defend himself.

I rolled my eyes at their banter and looked at Olivia, who seemed delighted by Mason and Jake.

My wolf and I did not like seeing her happy, because of anyone other than us.

I took her hand in mine and pulled her forward. "Dinner is waiting for us."

"Thank god I'm famished!", Mason exclaimed.

As always Olivia was aware of my mood, because she said: "You always look out for me and my needs, thank you!"

She pecked me softly on my cheek and my wolf and I were on cloud seven again. How easily she could read me. However, I was just glad that she never did anything to worsen my mood instead my mate always said or did the right things.

In the dining hall a table was already prepared for us.

Dinner was good and I caught myself again staring at Olivia while eating. Jake really told Olivia why Mason should never be alone with a baby and Mason promised her that he would take good care of our baby.

Our baby. Until now it never really crossed my mind that after the council's decision we would be able to start a family. I knew that I did not want to have babys very soon, because I just found Olivia and as selfish as it sounded I wanted to have her for myself for a little while.

During dinner Olivia and I could not help but have skin contact ever so often. We would hold hands or steal little kisses from each other. I absolutely loved being so affectionate with her and I could see it in her beaming eyes that Olivia loved it as well.

Soon dinner was over and I thought about Sir Alexander's secret again. However, I did not want anyone to eavesdrop on us so I suggested a stroll in the garden.

Mason and Jake both mindlinked me and they knew that I was going to let them in on something.

Olivia seemed aware as well. She readily agreed with my idea of a night stroll and all four of us made our way into the garden.

Olivia seemed happy to be in the garden, because she eagerly looked at all the plants and Mason and Jake made a game out of asking her what plant could be used for what potion. My mate told them softly and I was finally able to see my Olivia in healer mode. She was very passionate about it and there was not even one plant she did not know the name of or it's use.

After a while we stopped at one of the towers, which was now shadowing us and it appeared to anyone, who was in the garden as well that nobody was there at all.

"Spill!", Jake whispered.
