*Fiona*
"Can I take a shower alone?" I asked sarcastically once we entered the room "Or do you need to supervise that too?"
"I'll supervise if it makes you feel safer," he smiled, his eyebrows raising seductively. I just rolled my eyes.
"I think I can shower on my own, thanks," I said locking the bathroom door behind me. I was still covered in dirt and starting to feel my skin tighten from the dried flakes. I chose a fresh large tee-shirt, as my pyjamas, something I hadn't had to worry about before, as I never had someone sleepover in my room. The shower had been relaxing and I was starting to feel the weight of my eyelids as I made my way back into the bedroom.
Cyrus decided to shower too, as I climbed into bed. While my eyes were heavy, I couldn't stop running through all the details of the plan to strengthen security, trying to see it from a new angle.&nbs

*Fiona*Soft light filtered into my room, as I awoke, from a nearby window. I was pleased that I have a dreamless sleep and was loathe to get out of bed. I stretched as I yawned, stiffening as I brushed against the other body in my bed. I sat bolt upright as the events of last night came filtering back into my mind. I didn't regret it; I was more surprised at myself. It was liberating to focus on my pleasure, rather than thinking about the consequences. I blushed thinking about the pleasure Cyrus had brought only hours earlier. Being Cyrus in person was better than when I fantasised about it. I looked at Cyrus and was surprised to see he was already awake, watching me."Good morning," he said smiling, pushing my hair out of my face."How long have you've been awake?" I asked yawning, he couldn't have woken up in just a good mood."20 m

*Fiona*I decided to talk to David first. His glares toward Cyrus and myself didn't go unnoticed. I didn't understand what was wrong, considering he was mated up. The mark on his neck was fresh, telling me that they had marked each other, completing the mate bond. It was an outwards sign to the world that they belong to each other. I could feel Cyrus sizing up David after I mentioned his name."Cyrus," I said turning to him "Why don't you catch up with your pack members? I will introduce myself after I talk to David." He didn't look happy about the proposal, but my look shut down any protest. Cyrus shot a final look at David before crossing the room. I turned towards David, who was talking to Liz if you could call a conversation. He was half listening and half gl

*Cyrus*When I woke up to Fiona in my arm, I thought I must still be dreaming. I didn't move for fear that when she woke it would all come crashing down. I watched her sleeping peacefully in awe, so delicate yet so strong. Never had I met someone who overcame so much without being jaded to the world. I debated whether or not to tell her I was her mate. Although her birthday was only a few days away the wait was proving torturous.I need to go at her pace though. I was devasted when she wanted to keep the events that transpired between us a secret, I want to shout to the world that we belonged to each other. Yet I would see in her eyes that she was still unsure about me. I didn't want to push and risk losing her so I agreed. It was difficult, as my body called out for hers. After last night, I was sure her body called out for mine as well.It proved m

*Fiona*The garden behind the packhouse was even lusher than the garden at the community centre. It held many different flowering plants while the community centre was more food-based. Rows of roses lined the path and lavender plants filled in empty spaces in the gardens, attracting a number of butterflies. It was a favourite spot of mine in the pack. The first thing I did when I became Alpha was to restore all the pack gardens to their former glory. The few memories I had with my mothers were of her gardening. Being here made me feel close to her, even years after her death.Cyrus and I sat in a white gazebo on the edge of the garden, watching the sunset over the packhouse. The hues in the sky complimented the colours of the blo

*Fiona*I sat in my office chair, processing what Andre had said, staring at the wrapped gift on the table. When Andre had left, Cyrus walked me back to the packhouse, hand on the small of my back the whole way. As we enter my office, I could see him finally relax and take a breath. He sat across from my desk staring at the gift with much more suspicion than I."I mean it's so unlikely that I would find a mate the day of my birthday," I commented. The end of our conversation with Andre ran through my head."David did..." Cyrus commented, "You just might." There was something in his tone that caused me to look up at him. An emotion flitted across his eyes so quickly that I questions whether I had really seen it."You mean, like from one of the packs invited?" I thought out loud "I guess it's more likely if there are more wolves ar

*Cyrus*When I awoke I was struck by a momentary panic, by the lack of Fiona's presence in bed. I nearly jumped out of bed, when I saw her sitting quietly on a couch engrossed in a book. I took a breath. When did I become so anxious? Normally I was fairly level headed, but ever since the threats against Fiona, everything seemed to be a threat. Fiona was my weakness, but I couldn't bring myself to see it as a bad thing.I watched her sitting on the couch reading. Her legs were propped up on one of the arms, making them look longer as her shorts rode up, nearly invisible under her large tee shirt. I could hear Blaze making some suggestions on how we should start the morning. I had been hesitant with Fiona so far, holding back. She was pushing me though, as she become more comfortable exploring. I would hold back for her until she was ready.&

*Fiona*Standing on the steps of the packhouse waiting to greet the new pack, reminded me how little time had passed since I had greeted Cyrus in the same fashion. I remember how nervous I had been and how much I had wanted to prove myself. While I still felt like I was trying to prove myself, I was more assured and less nervous, this time around. I hoped that this time things wouldn't be turned upside down, as I was still processing all the changes that had happened in the past few days. I felt like a different person, with Cyrus, more reckless. I couldn't bring myself to see it as a bad thing."Who are we dealing with?" Cyrus asked taking a place next to me.

*Fiona*My head was reeling at all the information that was flying at me. I had never thought much about my mother’s family. They had never been mentioned growing up. Now that I knew they were family, it was obvious why they had looked so familiar. Every time I looked at Alpha Thomas or Luna Shae I would see traits that reminded me of my mother. At first, it was the eyes, but as the evening wore on I also realised there was more. Shae carried herself in the same way my mother had, light as a feather. I saw my brother's smouldering looks in Thomas’ eyes. Shae’s voice was even light like my mother's when she comforted me. I felt pain for her loss, but from that pain, something new was growing. I felt a cautious excitement to get to know this new family, hoping that they might hel
