"MATE!" A baritone booming Wulf speak combines with a blinding flash of electricity and Coco & Bella no longer confront me. Between us, barring their access stands the lightning celestial guardian, my mate.... Sable. His paws, form, and head were huge for a Wulf. With head down, jaws parted snarling, teeth clicking, black-sharp ears pressed strongly down against his skull, black booted feet on coiled stiffened. Lightning crackles waving like ropes outwards. Legs spread apart, electricity whips & pop off every inch of his coat with savage intent radiating in bright fiery eyes radiating pure power within. Seen as whips lashing out from within, Sable stands before us.
In a blur I leap, landing between Sable and them. Blocking both, his path and view of the now, submissive displaying pair. Equal in stature and size as I. My tail furiously wagging like an excited pup. Attempting to avert sable's view off Coco & Bella. Who remain in full submission one leg lifted exposing their undersides. I have to hurry before he murders them. WIth a calming wulf speak I speak to him "Mate, it's me Crimson. You must remember they are your pack. You cannot harm them"
I attempt to reply but a force of nature responds for me "THEY DARE THREATEN MY MATE!" A roar of an explosion heard, a lightning crackles so dominant, it lights up the all beneath it as I spoke. Crimson advances and stretches out his head to rest it on my shoulder licking my pelt "I am safe my mate. I am safe." My aggressive determination waning. In return, I extend my head across Crimson's shoulder resting it there. Both of us closing our eyes. His scent envelopes my nose and its effect made apparent. Previous electrical crackling coming off my pelt with the force of a blazing electricity zapping into the air. However, under his presence. It is seen diminishing. Becoming soft electrical currents rolling like ripples of water along with my fur further becoming lighter and lighter. Until all together, it ceases. Calm now I lift my head. Pulling it back as so too does Crimson. We touch foreheads as for the first time fully in control of my wolf form I hear his baritone words.... "my mate."
"I am Crimson Alpha of the CRIMSON MOUNTAIN PACK and you are Sable my Luna, my mate, my soul, my breathe and I will never leave you." Wind, which had started up, dies. Above, lightning decreases in magnitude. Fading away becoming rumbling thunder. Crimson's words touch me, further calming me. In seconds, once again the sky is blue.
Carmen had appeared standing on the porch waiting. Now she speaks first addressing my mate verbally "Told you it was a bad idea." Then her beautiful copper eyes fixate onto me. Her tone softens "About time you showed up." Her eyes illuminate further in their radiance as she erects yet again, a barrier spell. At her voice, Crimson & I gaze towards her, My sister. With a wag of my tail, I pad up to her. Tail wagging uncontrollably by the time I reach her. I rear onto my hind legs placing my forelegs on her shoulders to lick her face. She fusses "I am a wolf NOT A DAMN DOG!" But, she wraps her arms around my chest. Then I muzzle her. Crimson stands by my side viewing.
Responding to Celeste my wolf spoken tone reveals my pleasure at once more being with my family "Yes my sister, the time has been great since we have seen one another." Carmen phases Celeste gets right to the point saying, "I miss you, Sable, how much longer will it be?"
I can merely answer "Soon Celeste, it is only with the complete force of his steeled will, will Alejandro reestablish our bond. He must call me with every part of his being".
"But Sable, why the change? were you not going to rebond with him this past full moon?
"Yes. But something" Turning my head to my content destined mate who sits attentive to my every move, my tail thumps on the ground, my tone softens "Rather someone, has deterred that." Crimson walks over, arching his head and puffing out his chest. Shifting my gaze to my two pack mates Coco & Bella. Sitting upright now, standing, waiting for my call "You two may appear now. I no longer have a bloodrage for your throats. But I would appreciate an explanation." my tail thumping on the porch floor holding my attention on my brother and guardian.
Coco and Bella run over whining licking my face then drop to the floor playful. I wag my tail and throw out my forelegs in puppy fashion. "Sorry, Sable but it was Crimson's idea." I respond picking up head and ears standing upright with a wolf like sneer "Oooh?", I stop playing, shifting my head with a playful look now to my mate. Crimson grins and half close his eyes "Sorry my love, the mate bond is so strong I knew you would respond to any threat to your mate."
"Well then" walking seductively to my blood red furred mate. My whisper wolf speak seductively "Besides me, let us see who the better protector of Alejandro is." Cautioning Crimson "They are my pack love, remember not to hurt them or we will not mate........Ever." then lick his ear. Crimson HOWLS his pleasure as ripples of excitement course through him making him shudder. Then leaving him, I pad over to Celeste on the porch and lay beside her watching the trio. She licks my muzzle twice happy to see me. "Are you certain you can watch this without interfering?" her query. Responding to my pack sister with honor "I must. For any seeking to be by my side as my mate; even a destined mate chosen by the goddess Oya herself. He must demonstrate to you three, not only am I safe in his care but so too is Alejandro. They love me and would die for me as I would for them. This is OUR CODE. Do you not remember Celeste?"
With a look to the battle responding to Sable "Yes well. Even though knowing the force Crimson harbors within himself. It is equal to your own?"
I glance at Celeste then rub my head against hers laughing. "stop worrying my sister. You remind me of Alpha mother." Continuing "He will not hurt them, I can sense it. No matter how much force those two bring. He will not hurt them. My love for them is as fierce as my love for you. He values and appreciates this as if it were his own. ANNND, I earlier told him I won't mate with him EVER if he does."
I must chuckle at Sable's last remark "Ouch cruel Sable, Cruel" he faces and leans with his wolf Smile. Then we nuzzle one another.
I address Celeste, switching the conversation. "While they conclude this, Let us talk Celeste." My tone becoming solemn "Alejandro must summon me on his own. It must be his burning will which will break the spell and re-establish our bond. It is the only way." my gaze focused on the unfolding battle.
"why not speak with him yourself. Explain all to him through your link?".
"I dare not now. It was to be my initial intention, but since Crimson's arrival, I am unsure of the strain it may have on Alejandro's mind. I hear his thoughts sister. The burden alone of learning our truth has his mind under an intense strain of acceptance Celeste. I will never place my human soul companion in any danger. Or have you forgotten my sacrifice to save him at all costs?" My gaze returning to her for a moment, Celeste looks away, with eyes closed she casts her head to her paws. "No, my Sable. I will never forget that day. I lost my daughter and my mother."
When I respond to her, the sky briefly rumbles above "The spirits have told me he lives. I will have my revenge, Celeste." My tone was cold. Lifting her head, watching the trio now, Celeste says. "He has taken much from us my leader. But the goddess has sought to heal the destruction done that day." As Celeste continues speaking, I look to my mate her statement touching my heart. Celeste returns her gaze on me once more. "How can I serve?"
"My lovely sister Celeste (my gaze remaining for a moment on Crimson before turning it to Celeste) "This time it is only my mate who can. For without his understanding, Alejandro has already placed his complete confidence in our human mate. It is finding Reuben that alejandro has renewed hope." My voice turns grim. "My power would kill you, my sister. I would never allow that. Besides, I see you're getting small wrinkles around those eyes of your Celeste." poking fun at her and roll away from her on my side. Showing my belly and tongue. "You ass!!" Celeste gives me a low irritated growl causing Crimson to whip his head my way. THAT was his mistake.
