Serah POV

The man disappeared but not my overwhelmed sense receptor. The world was glitching in real life, zooming-unzooming the scenery. I was sure the sun set but my vision tricked me into believing it was still day outside. My brain was burdened by all these useless information.

Kamil was next to me but everything around me was uncoherent. I tried to talk but no sound came out. My vocal cords were shaking, like my whole body.

I couldn't take it anymore and I let myself succumb to the slumber.

...

The dizziness was still present but I somehow felt comfortable, I didn't want to move anymore. I cuddled my people until I realized it was harder than supposed to be.

"Serah! You're awake?!"

I could have bet it was him. My eyes darting back and forth to realize that I was being transported by this alpha male. The air blocked by the human wall made the atmosphere enjoyable, as if a few time ago I wasn't in an urgent situation.

"How long have I been out?"

I pulled myself closer to him, lodging my face on the crook of his neck. He tensed but relaxed right after. He feels like home.

"Fifteen minutes."

What? My notion of time was messed up. It felt like hours what happened. It took much time till we arrived at the packhouse, Jay left me on the couch leaving a gentle kiss on my cheek. He left with Kamil to who knows where.

I didn't even want to close my eyes anymore, I wanted my mate here with me. His fragrance was left on my clothes, I hurridly buried my head in my T-shirt to seek the comfort I was missing.

The smell washed off and my unpleasant memory played off in front of me.

Who was that man? He knew me and he knew what was happening to me. Apart from my mom, nobody could answer my questions.

Actually, someone could, Kamil.

That bulky guard knew something too, and that unknown villain was confirming my suspicions.

Ice Moon, he said. What's the meaning of these words. A fool moon coming, the day the moon will as white as ice or the coldest full moon.

My brain was overworked, Ice Moon, what did it mean? Was that a pack name? I should ask Kamil or Gab they'd have answers.

An hour went by all by myself. Jay was alone and sat next to me. He buried his body on mine and hid his face behind my hair. I wanted to touch him so bad.

The clothes between us were the sole bastion against my bestial urges. My thoughts were clouded by my usual needs but this time they were ten times intensified.

He moved uncomfortably in my arms and I knew he felt it, he felt my arousal.

"Damn Serah! It's not the moment at all! I almost lost you today and. I'm f*cking angry I couldn't be here for you, that f*cker how did he get past our defense it was impossible."

He had to stop thinking about it, as he kept talking, rage was building up in his throat. I also felt that way but there was nothing we could do about it.

I caressed his head, playing with that golden layer, and whispered calmly. 

"Do we have time for our date?"

His head darted backward, dumbfounded. His expression crisped ready to yell and I was not letting that happen.

"I know after all this drama I should be safe and all but if we're together. There are no places safer than beside you."

My words were pleasing our dear alpha, it manifested into dozens of kisses on my neck. We left the sofa and I was still barefoot.

I took some random pair left outside as most of them are always shifting and we left off to the greek mansion. I didn't know we'll have our first date in the same building I partially live.

"So we arrived?"

I asked, unsure. It might be because of the early events. Anyway, I was delighted as I was prior these events.

He smiled and started to undress. What the f*? I would admit that I wasn't entirely against the idea of us engaging in some feral sports but not in front of my possible in-laws.

"Jay! I'm not doing it in front of your parent's windows!!"

My voice held in an unnecessary amount of emotions and one of them was lust.

"So as long as we move somewhere else it's okay?!"

"Ye- It doesn't work like this."

Damn his chuckle revealed that he caught on my mistake. Obviously, I would have said yes. I turned around more embarrassed by myself. It also gave me an opportunity to prove that I wasn't driven by the sole idea of flesh pleasure, though it was purely true.

He threw his stuff in front of me and whispered to my ear, as he advanced dangerously close to me.

"Later. But right now all you need to do is to ride me."

His husky voice made the air vibrate on my skin, I was ready to turn around and jump his bones when I heard these exact same bone cracking. 

Comprehension dwelled into my mortal corps and I wished that man killed me earlier so I wouldn't be left like an idiot with a beast-like wolf behind me.

I took his clothes and got on his back trying to hide my shame-tainted face.

He took off at full speed and I had to adjust myself on him. He was different from Serah, his fur was darker, bigger, and rougher. I always had some strategic points where I could hold tight on her wolf but on his there weren't one. His fur was too thick. I prayed that I didn't hurt him and clutched his sable coat. The familiar area disappeared and we were heading deep into the forest, where the light couldn't reach.

I was blind into this madness.

The air was hitting less harder as he ran but the blackness subsisted. My eyes were useless and they didn't adapt either. I closed my eyes to reassure my poor brain. At least I don't see because I closed them.

I felt him decelerating before completely coming to a stop. I crouched and I hardly managed to get down without falling. He shifted and excitedly asked how was the ride, did I like it...

He couldn't stop talking.

"Jay, I can't see. I can't see a thing."

He realized that right now, I wasn't answering his questions and he had to find something so the date could still go on because I wasn't into weird view obstructed fetishism.

"Yeah, let me put on my jeans first."

As his voice left the atmosphere, his touch left my sense and I felt left alone. I unconsciously grabbed by his waist and didn't budge.

"Serah, I said not now?"

He sighed but he wouldn't be against it. I explained that I only needed contact because I couldn't see. He was disappointed but I did enjoy myself while my hands were running wild on his muscles.

He didn't take long and I couldn't be sad that I couldn't feel his pecs on my palm but holdings hands hit different. I liked it anyway.

"Close your eyes we're almost there!"

I looked at him with all my being insulting him and his fine senses because it was still pitch black for me. He obstructed my already non-fonctioning view with his hands and led me to who knew where.

My steps were smaller than usual and my heart thrilled at the anticipation.

He slid his face lower and whispered we're here.

His hand left my eyes and I was left paralyzed by the beauty of the moment. I advanced not sure if the scenery in front of me real or not.

This was the hidden paradise Jess told me about. The tiffany lake with the weeping willows.

And it was illuminated.

"Magnificent."

The word in itself couldn't contain its beauty.
