Him. [Rewriting]

8. The Real Him

Neather.

I woke up great this morning, aside from a waring hangover. My body was snuggling against the warmest and softest body ever made. Said body was emitting the best scent ever known to Were's, which had me poking his backside. I planted my nose on the back of his neck, inhaling deeply but it didn't last long as he sprung up way too suddenly. So I latched myself onto his waist, planting soft kisses on his beautiful skin, while he laced his fingers through my short hair. My stomach began to do a tight squeeze, informing me it was time to go eat breakfast.

Finally, opening eye's I saw that the person I had deep infatuation for was, my very own best friend Axel. I didn't feel an ounce of regret. I liked the fact that Axel was now mine, with my scent embedded in him. My wolf felt sedated, Jasper hissed happily for me... as if I had achieved something marvelous. Then hissed angrily, because that vicious serpent wanted its morning meal. I growled at him to be patient.

Sighing against his skin, I got up and made my way to the dresser and fetched a pair of boxers. Making my towards the kitchen, all I could think of was making and then eating food with Axel.

Breakfast in bed maybe?, I thought to myself, yeah breakfast in bed, he's probably sore. It's funny how all I did was mate Axel and it made my world feel fucking fantastic. Not the shit fest I'm used to.

Mated to Axel.

Axel was now mine.

All of that sounded glorious in my thought process and to my wolf, until it dawned to me, Oh my goddess I mated my best friend. The first thing that came to mind was, fuck I'm an asshole. I mated him the wrong way, I did it like he was some sort of rebound fuck.

No you didn't Neather, my wolf told me, you care for him, now make us some food.

"Yeah, food Neather and don't forget Snow. Axel brought his food here too", Jasper hissed annoyingly.

I spoil my familiar way too much, I thought to myself as I shook my head.

"Oh no you don't", Jasper hissed as if he were invading or reading my thoughts, "Neather. Hungry. Food. Make now."

I glared at the serpent as I fixed his and Snow's meals. After plating their food on the floor, I shouted out, "AXEL, WHAT DO YOU WANT FOR BREAKFA-", before getting cut of by the jingling of keys behind the front door. My chest tightened and vibrated in pain and disgust. My wolf knew instantly who exactly was about to open the door and now so did I. I honestly didn't want to face him, especially with Axel now bearing my scent.

I heard the faint pitter patter of foot steps and flapping wings. Snow dove to the ground next to Jasper, where his food bowl sat and they dug in hungrily and completely ignored the world. I heard the door begin to creak open as Axel came into view from the hallway, he looked at my direction with a worried smile. He was back to his shifter form of his younger self, with a T-shirt of mine that draped off one of his shoulders.

You look so fucking sexy in my shirt, I told him in my thoughts. He blushed as if he had heard me, while I eyed his choice of clothing. I made my way over to him, licking my lips as I kissed and nipped at his exposed flesh. His voice hitched a short gasp, as he backed away and ended up hitting the counter. I heard foot steps climbing up the spiral staircase, as I picked up Axel's legs and wrapped them around my waist, while sitting his ass down on the island counter. Axel looked at me heatedly, while biting his plush bottom lip.

"Ugh, don't do that", I said feeling the urge to devour him, "that shirt was enough, but biting your lip is... mmm", I hummed as I went to bite that bottom lip of his.

"T-this was the only-y thing I could find, q-quick enough..", he said cautiously trying not to moan, before his features became worried, "Neather, what's-"

"For breakfast?", Michael answered making his appearance known, "Was that what you were gonna say? Because from the looks of this disgusting scene in front of me, it seems to be you Axel."

"Wait, what're you even doing here?", Axel questioned, snapping his head to the whore that had entered the room. I felt him tense though, watching a tick form in his jaw.

"The replacement here, seems to forgot that I live here too", Michael replied to me.

"Re-what?", Axel said stunned before hissing, "I am not your replacement for your own information, you fugly ass whore."

"Neather calm your bitc-", Michael attempted to interject before I shot him a look that said, I dare you to fucking finish that sentence, as Axel continued, "Who fucks around still mated to someone?", he paused for a moment, "Wait, wait I know who... you. Michael you better have come here to collect your shit and never comeback. Your very being is reeking this place with the foulest stench. It's a mix between 'A whore' and 'Nothing more.'"

I stared at him for a bit amazed. While my chest vibrated, making Axel snap his head to look at me as he ran his hand along my chest. My wolf began tearing bits and bits of Michael away as Axel's stronger bond grew.

Looking away from Axel I started to speak to Michael, "What're you here for, because I know for a fact that none of your belongings are even here anymore. Also, if you were returning the key, you could've just left it in the mail."

"Neather, I- um, uh."

"Spit it out already."

"Fine dog. To be quite honest, I wasn't expecting a rebound so fast. It caught me off guard", I felt Axel growing smaller inside through our bond, but stood strong on the outside as he schooled features, "I came here to return both the mail and front door key's. FYI, you have fifteen minutes before your late for work at Headquarters. So I suggest you hurry up, I need you to give me a lift."

I held Axel closer to me, as I picked up on his weary thoughts. He honestly thought he was rebound from what Michael had said. He knew I didn't sever the bond with Michael completely, because he could feel some remaining pieces.

"Yeah, I got it, just go. I'll be by my car in five or ten minutes", I told Michael staring at Axel. I felt a sting of jealousy from Michael course through me as he scoffed and stormed out the apartment to my car.

Holding Axel's face in my hands I began to whisper, "Axel?"

Nothing.

"Babe?"

Still nothing.

"Axel? Baby?" he lifted his head slightly and reluctantly to stare at me as I told him, "you're not a rebound or a replacement baby. Don't think like that just because I still have a tiny connection to Michael. Its just for wolves its harder to break bonds because we're always searching for the one. Someone to complete our soul. So my wolf held onto pieces of Michael in the mindset he'd come back, but as you can see he isn't. I have you and Snow now and I think I've found the one though."

I saw his lips tugging into a smile; I took him off the counter as I carried him with his arms wound around my neck and his legs around my waist. I brought him back to the bedroom, then dropped him on the bed as I ran to get ready for work. After getting dressed in my black uniform suit, Axel stood by the open bathroom door as I styled my bed hair.

"Oh, do I love a man in uniform", he purred while looking at me through the mirror. I gave him my signature smirk through the mirror before I left it to give him a breathtaking kiss. I flew down the spiral steps calling Jasper to come while grabbing my phone from the charger, then my key's and wallet from the change bowl.

Jetting to get out of the apartment I hollered out my goodbye's to Axel. Killing my happy mood, was the fact that I had my Ex sitting in the car, waiting for me to take us to work.
