Chasing Ghosts

In the Moment

They started to pack up her room and she got lost in the packing and almost half jumped out of her skin when arm embraced her. She relaxed when she scented her mate. Jade laughed and half closed her eyes at his love bites and playful mood. she laughed when he cupped his hand and smacked her on the ass."Nice very lovely." She said with a joking snarl and winked at him. She went back to working but was to distracted by his scent, so she packed a few things she had not meant to. Jade walked over to Erin while he was packing and wrapped her arms around his waist.

She nuzzled her way to the front of his body to hug him fully and just be in his arms. Her eye's finally went up to his, her lips just under his and she moved to kiss him lightly. However her kiss had more meaning behind it. It was full of love, passion, missing him, wanting and needing him. She knew he had been with Alyssa, but he could never get her pregnant like he could Jade. A alpha could only mate with his mate till they died. They could not have offspring with any other wolf or human, it just didn’t happen. It is like their sperm carried blanks if it was their mate. Same went for she wolves they couldn't get pregnant unless by their mate.

Her lips finally left his and she let out a small playful growl at him. She would be with him soon. The ceremony was only two days after they got back. The whole pack would have to be their. It was a big thing a Bonding Ceremony, especially for one of the Alpha of the pack. In normal circumstances there would be invitations sent out to the various and important packs in the area, but perhaps they would be able to get away with it just the pack to witness their union.

They would have to prepare the area where the ceremony would take place, a small but spacious clearing in the woods near a burbling stream. Clothes would have to be prepared and pressed, altered even if Jade so chose to wear the dress that she intended all those years ago; everyone attending the ceremony would have to wear white as a symbol of love, fidelity, purity (though the sail's been set on that one), and to honor the moon. The moon, the moon plays an important part in the ceremony and after. The ceremony would take place on the day of the full moon, as a way to honor the moon and the Goddess, Luna, whose said to have given the first werewolf that power to shift in the beginning, and to bring good tidings for the Bonded Pair. Then, that night, when the rest of the pack would be out running beneath Luna's watchful gaze, the Bonded would be doing a different sort of running. Beneath the moonlight the couple would make love to cement their bond, and at the moon's zenith, the Bonded would bite each others neck or shoulder mid climax; though with Lyn being so little and how protective Jade was of her, she may want to stay in the manor for the night of the ceremony, Jade hoped Erin wouldn't have a problem with either way she wanted to do it. However she also kinda wanted to do it in the barn just outside the house.

Jade had moved away from Erin with another Kiss to go pack up. They packed most of the day talking on and off. Lyn had fallen asleep packing her room. She had been whining and crying and Jade finally got her down on the couch. Lyn lay their with her mother crying and whining till she fell asleep with her thumb in her mouth. Jade slipped away from her daughter gently and covered her in a blanket. Jade felt Lyns forehead her daughter never slept this much or got this upset often. A frown set on her face as she felt and watched her daughter. Jade picked Lyn up ever so gently and walked to the kitchen to grab the baby thermometer. She checked her temperature and Lyn cried waking up. "Shhh lynie it's okay, my poor baby why didn't you say you weren't feeling good." Jade frowned even more looking at the temperature on the thermometer."Babe.. will you finish packing up Lyns room, she has a small fever." Jade said. When he stopped and looked at her. "Don't worry probably just a flu." She said as Lyn coughed and puked on her mom's shoulder. "Aww my poor Lyn." Jade slowly took her shirt off and Lyns clothes. Jade walked with her shirt off and took her pants off to go to the bathroom.

When Lyn was cleaned up and cooled down and so was Jade. Jade walked out dressed and Lyn in her comfy pajamas. Lyn was limp and listless on her mom. Jade knew it was just a flu and she be okay. Lyn fell asleep in her arms. Jade went about packing again with her daughter in her arms. She kept a ice pack to her head to cool down Lyn.
