The Mute Wolf

Chapter 13

The house was in a quiet little corner of the town sitting by itself with a small front garden and a very cliched white picket fence. It looked cosy.
"My mum should be home, she'd love to meet ya!" Tyson said opening the front door and an aroma of soap mixed with herbs hit me as we entered. It was a generous sized house; not too small, not too big.
"Mum, are ya here?" He shouted kicking off his shoes by the door.
"I'm in here!" A voice replied from somewhere in the house. Would she really mind me staying here?
"Mum, meet Ember. She needs to stay with us a while, the Prince is lookin' for her." He began telling a woman in her late 30's with reddish orange hair. She was beautiful. She smiled at me and dropped the knife she was using to cut up fruit and came over to me and hugged me.
"It's lovely to meet you Ember! I don't think my son has ever brought a girl home before!" She gleamed excited. Tyson gave an awkward chuckle and quickly changed the subject back to Ares. She, like many had also projected her hatred for the prince and seemed more than happy to help me escape his grasp.
"That man is a monster! Even as a child he's been nothing but a monster. This town deserves better!" She huffed, putting her hands on her hips. Then her face softened and she smiled at me once more. "I'm Josie. You can stay as long as you need to." She grabbed my shoulder reassuringly and went back to cutting up fruit. She was on her lunch break and soon had to get back to her shop. Tyson gave me a quick tour around their quaint little home and Josie insisted she would give me some of her old clothes to wear when she came back home for dinner. She said her goodbyes and went back off to work, leaving just Tyson and myself sitting in the lounge.
"Ya don't need to worry about being alone with me, I'm harmless!" Tyson chuckled probably sensing my tension. He brought out a few snacks and drinks and we watched a couple Disney films to pass the time.
He started talking about his past and how his mum came to be involved with the king. We shared more stories about our families and what we hoped the future would hold. He was already becoming a really good friend. He even controlled himself perfectly around me being in heat, which I have to say was quite impressive. I tried hard to muffle my groans from my churning stomach ache and hope he didn't notice. My eyes must have given me away as he began to look at me with sad eyes.
"I wish I could make ya feel better. I know my mum has a hot water bottle, you can use that if ya like?" He asked softly and I nodded. He was a sweet guy. I thought only little wolf was sweet and kind but I guess not every wolf is a dirty, controlling bastard.
"Thank you. That helps." I told him. Truthfully it barely made an impact but it was nice all the same.
"You're very welcome! Also I forgot to mention as we only have the 2 rooms, ya can take my room and I'll sleep down here." He smiled sweetly.
"Oh I couldn't do that! You've already done so much for me, I won't kick you out of your own room. I'll be fine down here." I started but he shook his head.
"Don't be silly! You're having my room an that's that!" He folded his arms and stuck his tongue out like a child making me laugh.

When Josie returned, she made an extra cheesy lasagne for dinner with garlic bread which went down faster than you can say gulp.
She handed me a pile of clothes she told me I could keep and amongst them was a vest and a pair of shorts for sleeping in. It was strange but after only a few short hours of being here, I already felt like I was home. After a hot bath, I got changed and met with Josie and Tyson in the lounge for a glass of wine and some board game I've never heard of. We laughed and joked for hours, my stomach occasionally making me grimace in pain but I managed to pull through thanks to them both taking my mind of it. Every now and then I would cast a glance over to Tyson and he would do the same and smirk at me. After the game had finished and I was sure Tyson had cheated, Josie retreated to bed whilst Tyson and I finished off another bottle of wine and near enough passed out on the couch.
"I really can't thank you enough for today.." I whispered softly leaning against the same pillow he was. I couldn't remember the last time I had been this tipsy, besides from my birthday and I couldn't even see what was on the tv properly. I giggled.
"Ya know it is my pleasure." He replied almost slurring his words. This made us both laugh till we couldn't breathe. The sound of our laughter together was like a noise you replay over and over but you've no idea why. He gently put his arm around me and I leaned in even more, but his weight pushed on me and we fell sideways onto the couch giggling like a couple of kids. His face was buried in a pillow behind me and I didn't have the strength to move either of us out of our almost spooning position and gave a sleepy yawn. I had to admit, considering how the last day or so had turned out, I actually had one of the best evenings I've had in a long time! Except for my time with little wolf of course. Even though I was far from home I felt safe and almost happy. I didn't know how to explain it. Probably just the wine talking.

Tyson wiggled around next to me and his arm found my side and he placed his hand very softly onto my hip. My wolf was yipping at me to get up and mate him, to feel more of his touch. I frowned. Then he snuggled in closer to me and now it felt like we were spooning properly. I didn't think he was aware though considering he was still smothering himself in the pillow. Then I felt his erection flex through his Superman pj bottoms and I heard him giggle into the pillow.
"Oh.. whoops!" He laughed as he raised his head from the pillow. He shuffled back and removed his hand from my hip and placed it down by his side.
"Whoops?" I repeated with a stifled laugh. I thought he had fallen asleep.
"I told ya if I said it didn't have any effect on me I'd be lying!" He muffled a laugh into the pillow and propped himself up on his elbow to look at my reaction. I couldn't help but grin. He had a slight blush creep across his face and a cheesy grin that seemed to be contagious.
"You aren't like most wolves. Pretty much everyone I've met has been a controlling, perverted bastard that did whatever he liked whenever he liked. But you aren't like that. You're sweet and kind and gentle and I've only met one other wolf like that..." I trailed off. His grin grew.
"Well pretty lady, you're very special too. Not like a lot of the female wolves I've met either. Like I said, I respect ya!" He told me and I couldn't take my eyes away from his.
"Is that why you're such a gentleman? Why you don't want to touch me etc? You respect me?" I asked and I felt my wolf getting annoyed. She didn't want respect. She just wanted to be mated!
"Yup! Pretty much! Not that I wouldn't love ta an all..." He blushed slightly again and I felt the air around us get hotter. Maybe that was just my heat. Maybe it was him? Or the wine? He was definitely aroused by me and my wolf... well.... She had already thought of 10 different ways to mate him.

His plump lips so close to mine made me feel suddenly so desperate to taste them. He caught me looking at his lips and he bit his lower lip. My wolf was now going haywire.
"Ya have no idea what my wolf is howlin about right now.." Tyson whispered now collapsing his eyes onto my lips.
"I bet I have a good idea. My wolf has already thought of multiple ways to do things with you. She's relentless. I'm sorry if all this is bugging you." I said hoping he would laugh and tell me I was wrong. I wanted him to be effected by me. But why?
"And what about you?" He asked softly, more serious.
"I really want to..." I began but stopped myself. Drunk me was about to share way too much! Well, only that I want to kiss him. Bad. Damn this heat and wine! He placed his hand on my side as I now lay on my back looking up at him and he raised his eyebrows waiting for me to finish my sentence.
"Kiss..."I forced myself to say and he grinned wildly. He slowly leaned in watching me in case I was about to change my mind and planted his lips on top of mine. We didn't even close our eyes as the kiss was brief and he looked like he wanted to make sure I was okay with this. I grabbed hold of the side of his face with one hand and smiled, which he took as a sign to kiss me again. Which he did. This time was harder and he didn't pull back up to check on me. The pace increased and then he slipped his tongue inside my mouth which I greeted happily with my own. My wolf was exploding with excitement but I could hardly hear her as my entire focus was on kissing Ty. He was the best kisser I have ever had the pleasure of kissing. I just couldn't stop meeting his mouth with my own. I was hungry for his mouth like a starving lion chewing on a lamb. I wrapped both of my arms around his neck and he grasped my side tighter and tighter. Finally, when we pulled apart, neither of us could breathe. We laughed whilst sucking in chunks of air and he quickly prized himself from our awkward position, showing a huge wet patch on his bottoms.
"Whoops again." He tried to laugh breathless and excused himself to the bathroom. Well Ember if you wanted to have an effect on him you sure did it. My wolf howled at the sudden loss of Tyson from the room and I gradually felt the dull aches in my womb begin to sharpen. That boy was definitely hot stuff. 'Wet hot stuff' my wolf added and I sighed. I started to feel lonely in the room without him and was happy when he returned a few moments later. Wearing a pair of shorts may I add.
"Are ya okay?" He asked as he came into the room. He didn't sit down, just stood in front of me with his hands on his hips.
"I think so. Are you?" I tried to hide a chuckle but not sure I managed successfully. He laughed and wiggled his eyebrows. Even though his shorts were dark, I could still tell he had an erection. A Blood Alpha erection at that. My wolf pointed it out every half a second, whimpering and pleading for it.
"Wow... That was..." I tried to explain but the words just failed me.
"I know..." He smiled finally sitting next to me. "Best kisser ever."
I tried to hide my grin but he pulled my face towards him and kissed me on the forehead.
"Get some sleep. I'll walk ya up." He offered and I nodded. We both clumsily climbed the stairs giggling, trying not to wake Josie in the process. He opened his bedroom door and watched as I collapsed on his bed. His scent was everywhere! He leaned down and planted a quick kiss on my mouth and said goodnight.
I was asleep as soon as he closed the door.
