Love conquers all

The “I love you” was spontaneously pronounced from my lips, so I didn’t expect anything in return. Not a reaction, not a response, not even a grimace. Nathan, on the other hand, immediately showed me a radiant smile that lit up his eyes and stroking my cheek he said: “I love you too, little bird!” Immediately after, regardless of the many prying eyes that were nearby, our lips joined in a sweet kiss that very soon turned into a more engaging, more hungry one. With that kiss my body was confirming that it was not the right time to say those two little words. I was way beyond the excitement, I was completely out of control. I felt the fire of passion burn my skin, his excitement growing on my belly. He abruptly broke away, panting back a few steps, his eyes were constantly changing color, he urgently said to me: “Go and sit with Aurora.” He turned his back and went away, towards the motorway restaurant.

“Nathan ...” I tried to call him, but he didn’t turn around. What was happening? Had I done something? I got on the bus and proposed the change to Aurora and Walter, who gladly accepted. When I was alone with Aurora, Abby and Andrea also approached. In no time at all, that situation turned into a session with the psychologist.

“Why are you here and not with your boyfriend?” This was the first question Abby asked curiously.

“Because of the teenage hormones!”

“Why didn’t he go up with you?” Andrea asked immediately afterwards.

“We said I love you for the first time and we kissed.”

“I still can’t understand why?”

“The kiss was… a kiss that required a room. He broke away quickly, his eyes constantly changing color and he walked away.”

“Now everything is clear to me. Wolves are animals and by that I mean instinctive, so they mate all the time. They don’t care if there are people around, if it’s not the right time or the right place, when they’re excited they don’t lose time. I think Nathan told you to get on without him, because maybe his wolf is an Alpha and it’s very hard to keep at bay, especially in a small, enclosed place like this bus. ”

“Falco is an Alpha ... I’ll stay here for a while with you.” I said looking directly at Aurora.

“In the meantime we can do a search for places in the area to celebrate”; Aurora said changing the subject.

“We’re leaving guys”; the driver said through the loudspeaker.

While Aurora was talking to me about some locations for the surprise party, my thoughts traveled as fast as the trees outside the window. I hadn’t seen Nathan sit in his place. He hadn’t even greeted me when he went up. Although I felt a mad desire to go to him and kiss him, hug him, even holding his hand would have been enough for me; I stayed in my place. I would have waited for him to look for me and not the other way around. I had a bad headache and my meds were in my backpack in the compartment of my seat next to Nathan. I was so stubborn to wait, that I decided to wrestle with the pain.

“Sorry Aurora, I didn’t sleep well last night, I’d like to rest for a little bit.”

“Sure Myra, rest”; she told me in her sweet voice and flashing her reassuring smile. I closed my eyes in an attempt to fall asleep and not think about the headache.

I woke up with a start, the driver had made a sudden stop.

“Are you okay Myra?” Aurora asked worriedly.

“Yes, I’m fine, thanks. You?”

“All right ... there is someone for you”; she told me looking down the corridor and it was then that my gaze met that of the “beautiful and damned”.

“Myra…” he said my name uncertainly as he knelt beside the seat where I was sitting.

“I came to see if you are okay.” I turned my head to the window and squinted to hold back the pain, the headache hadn’t gone away.

“Myra, go back to your seat with me”; he said bluntly, stroking my hair. It was stupid keep acting like a little girl, so I turned to look at his wonderful sad eyes and said, “Okay.”

I greeted Aurora who had a beaming smile and hand in hand we went to our seat. When a sharp pain hit me in the head, Nathan asked me in alarm: “Myra, what have you got?”

“Can you take my backpack, please. I have a headache”; while I finished speaking he had already grabbed my backpack.

“Thanks”; I muttered.

“When did it start?” This question was a problem for me, because I didn’t want to admit that out of pride I hadn’t taken the medicine, so I decided to lie in the answer.

“I don’t know, a few minutes ago”; I tried to sound sincere but my stupid heart betrayed me.

“I can feel your heart pounding, so I think you are telling me a lie. Tell me the truth ...” he waited for my sincere response.

“After a while we left the motorway restaurant”; I admitted looking down. I was waiting for Nathan to say something, but he was silent, he took my hand and I rested my head on his shoulder. Perhaps he had understood what dynamic had been created and he had preferred to keep quiet.

For lunch we stopped at a picnic area. There was a large lawn area with lots of dark wooden tables and benches scattered around. Nathan hadn’t left me for a second, so he found himself sitting between us women again.

“Nathan, have you thought about doing something to celebrate your birthday?“; Abby asked brazenly, earning a reproachful look from me.

“We’re out on a trip, I think it’s already a way to celebrate.”

“So you haven’t organized anything?!”

“No, nothing. Why this curiosity about my birthday?”

“Because eighteenth birthday is important to a werewolf.” Andrea said, placing her hand on Abby’s, preventing her from speaking.

“What do you think if ...” Abby was about to ruin what should have been a surprise party, but luckily the professor’s voice arrived inviting us to join our seats for the imminent departure.

After another two hours of travel we had almost arrived at our destination. The program included a visit to the city of Siena before checking in at the hotel.

“Guys, listen carefully. We have arrived in Siena and you are free to visit it alone. We will meet at this point exactly in three hours”; said the voice of one of the attendants on the loudspeaker as the bus parked.

Between long walks hand in hand, kisses and smiles with Nathan; chatter and laughter with my best friends the three hours of freedom were over.

Arrived at the hotel, owned by the Alpha of the pack that was rooted in the heart of Tuscany; they divided us into: double, triple and quadruple rooms.

Nathan was in a double with Walter, they had made friends during the short time they had been sitting close on the bus; while we girls had fought for the last remaining quadruple.

The rooms were on the same floor, but far apart. Let’s say the opposite ends!

Dinner was served from 8 to 9 p.m. at the hotel restaurant.

The tables were arranged next to each other, they could seat six people each and we picked one that was perfect for us. With the addition of Walter to the group, Nathan no longer felt like the only man among women.

After dinner we decided to go for a walk around the hotel.

We were a school of supernatural students, so the hotel was located in a countryside area. We strolled among orchards, vineyards and fields of fragrant flowers. A surprisingly great place!

We were back and my legs could no longer walk, so I asked Nathan for permission to put my weight on him.

“Sure you can, little bird”; on his face, apart from his wonderful smile, was the clear expression of someone who had a question ready to ask, but he didn’t come out. After a while he picked me up like a bride, I tried to dissuade him: “Nathan, you don’t have to carry me, I can still walk.”

“I can see you even in the dark. You know my night vision works perfectly.” I wrapped my arms around his neck and whispered: “Thank you.”

His pace remained constant, his breathing quiet, it seemed that he had no weight in his arms. In that evening, when a light fresh wind blew, I felt the shivers pervade my body, only that in his arms, I did not feel cold. Those were shivers of pleasure that only increased my arousal state. “When did I become like this?!” I asked myself as Nathan began to smell my arousal.

“There are only two days left and I will be able to taste this delight!” He exclaimed looking for my gaze. At first I didn’t understand what he meant, but enlightenment was not long in coming.

“Why do you insist on waiting?” I asked impatiently, I craved him and I didn’t care if he would be my Mate or not.

“If you do it with your Mate, it will be the most beautiful thing one can experience. I want your virginity as my birthday present.”

“Now everything is clearer. But it’s difficult ...” I said the last part of the sentence whimpering.

“We’ve waited a whole month and we’ll do it again, it’s only two days.” I just had to hold on for two days and then I would give the most precious thing a woman can give.
