Cry Wolf (boyxboy/mpreg)

|7| Cry Like A Sheep

"–but you cry like a sheep, yeah."

Danyael

My eyes fluttered open and I feel myself pressed against a hard chest. My eyes trail up from his abs to his pecs to his sculpted face. I suddenly feel the numbing pain in my lower back and I got flustered remembering what we had done –what I said– last night. Albeit we had a small argument, it was the best night of my life. Then I realized that I had slept in all day and I hadn't even done the one task I was supposed to do. I tried getting up, but the pain on my lower back suddenly became too much. It was like fire on my skin. I gasped quietly and laid back down in my mates embrace. His arms then move to wrap themselves around me. I tense, but then relax in his hold as he nuzzled his nose in my hair.

          I rested my face on his chest and felt his warmth surrounding me. The sparks being emitted from skin contact was comforting and it was lulling me to sleep again. But I couldn't fall asleep now. I tried getting up again, but I wasn't stopped by my burning back. I wasn't even able to get up. I was stopped by Matchitehew's long muscled arms. I look up to his face to see his blue eyes looking down onto me.

"G-good morning...," I said with a light blush.

"Morning, love," he kissed the top of my head lovingly. "Sorry for making you hurt your back. Let's lay here for a while so it can heal up a bit."

          Albeit the nagging feeling in me to ho back to the pack, I agreed, nuzzling my face into him, "Okay. Matchitehew, why did you push me away when we first met? You could've rejected me then and there–"

"Danyael, I don't want to talk about it," he said with a soft warning growl.

          I could've backed down because he was more dominant than I was, but I was still a beta, "No. Tell me, please, Matchitehew. Why did you do that? I won't judge. I can't even leave you even if I wanted to!", he looked into my eyes as I pleaded. "Please...,"

          He sighed, his eyes becoming glassy, "I pushed you away because you'd get hurt with me because I'm a rogue and the son of a Shaden Wolf, you know that. But my father wasn't evil. He still had a heart. He was just dying and going to the brink of insanity. It was his mate, my biological father's, fault. He rejected my father and mated with another wolf who was not him and I was conceived."

         Tears started falling from his eyes as he continued, "My father was dying because his human is gone and he killed his ex-mate. I saw what happened if you reject your mate and I didn't want the same thing to happen to you. Even though I couldn't see his eyes, I could feel the pain, the grief, the depression. I could feel all the sorrow my father had. I... I killed him. He was turning insane and I had the scar to prove it.", he showed me his right arm where a large bite marks scar –which I had not seen before– had been placed. "I lost him that snowy night when we killed the bear that attacked us. H-he... *hick*"

"Ssh. It's okay. You don't have to tell me no more.", I say, wiping his tears with my thumb and kissed his forehead to soothe him.

"T-thank you...," he said, leaning into my hand.
