The Sacred Night

The night was not the usual one as anticipation filled the air. We had spent many nights apart, but not anymore, a lot would happen this very night. I observed the moon was not yet full, shy of being full maybe because of what would happen later tonight. Its shyness didn't reach the extent of not sending a glow on the pack house. The pack had finally gotten a Luna after a long time. Every attempt to maneuver the will of the moon goddess failed. We had been defeated in the last battle; the pack was finally peaceful, but not too long. Morgath didn't waste time in attacking. But even at that, all that mattered was the breath of fresh air as a result of my union with Liora. Even the impact of Elder Clatus' betrayal was not felt much. The pack was finally removing traitors and exposing enemies of the pack. Liora. My fated mate, my Luna, and my all. The mere thought of her and everything we passed through together, resurrected a rush of uncontrolled emotions in me. She was made just for me, and she had waited until the right time to seal our bond. It was the making of the moon goddess that we become one, spiritually, emotionally, and physically as Alpha and Luna. As the prophecy declares, our union would bring peace, unity, and restoration to the pack. It was a new dawn for the Silver Moon Pack. I stood outside, in the hallway leading to the chamber I would be sharing with Liora tonight. I hesitated in front of the door, my hand hovering over the handle, contemplating on opening or going back to my chamber. Just as I was about to take a step backward, my wolf stirred restlessly within me. He wanted something to claim her, but I was too scared to make such a bold move. I didn't want to rush her. I had stayed calm for long, but I knew I wouldn't take it for long. The moment would be perfect for her, but I want it to be her timing. Taking a deep breath which I never realized I had been holding, I finally opened the door. The sight that welcomed me was breathtaking; I became speechless. Liora stood by the window, it seemed she had been expecting me. She was on a towel, dripping wet from a fresh bath. Her skin glowed under the watch of the moonlight, a great sight to behold. Her long was not left out, it descended her back in a grand style that suggested wave movement. I closed the door to catch my breath, it was much for me to take in at once. When I finally opened it again, she was already in a white gown, simple but inviting. It clung to her curves, mercilessly revealing her make, and my heart pounded in my chest, threatening to escape if I made any movement. I opened the door the second time, and she turned as I made my presence known. Her eyes met mine, and I could feel the connection between us intensifying, a spark of fire was established. 'Jaxon," she whispered, barely moving her lips. 'Liora," I said, barely audible even to myself. I took the first step toward her but was unable to stop; an invisible force kept pushing me to her, and I followed without complaint.'My fated mate." She smiled, her eyes glistening under the guidance of the moonlight. I became weak, weakened by her smile, it was enchanting. We had passed through a lot, much to stop us from having our best moments, but we prevailed against all odds. But tonight, we would soar without any restriction. I reached for her, my masculine frame hovering over her and my hands gently tracing her form. Without thinking, I leaned in and captured her lips with mine. The kiss was slow at first, and her lips soft as usual, but her eyes were requesting more, urging me to go fierce on her. I deepened it, my wolf howling in the background for expression. I deepened the kiss but I didn't grant her request. I wanted her to want me, to cry out so badly for me. I wanted to take it slow, to make the moment a memory, but she wanted it rushed, to have me in her. Gently, I broke the kiss, and I rested my forehead against hers. I wanted to see her face, to torment her a little. I observed her breathing was not steady; mine was in ragged pants as well. 'I've waited, fought for this beautiful moment for the longest time, I would want us to take it slow and make the moment memorable," I muttered to her. 'Same here," she replied, her index finger tracing patterns on my chest. 'And now, when we least expected it, it's finally here." I guided her to the bed, our foreheads still touching each other. I pushed her gently and she landed on the soft bend. I bent over her, our eyes locked in mocking attraction. At that moment, words were not necessary, not needed to express our feelings as our expressions alone spoke volumes. I could sense our bond growing even more, and the desire in her eyes was evident on her face, lying bare for me to see. I was glad she wanted me as much as I desired to have her for myself. Slowly, I undressed her with my eyes, and when I could not take it any longer, I helped her up and started the real undressing. My fingers meticulously slid the straps of her gown, releasing her flying in the air, landing on who knows where, and revealing her enchanting body. The feel of her skin was soft, nut above all inviting. My wolf growled; he lacked patience. He wanted it rushed, but it was my moment; I would take it a step at a time. I resisted the urge to handle her roughly, I would make it gentle at first. I worshiped her body to dishonor it with a lack of patience. 'Jaxon…" Her voice came unexpectedly, startling me out of my thoughts. But something drew my attention, it was the longing filled in the voice that called me. She was already out of breath, her hands hastily undoing the buttons on my shirt. She was running out of patience, not ready to follow my pace any longer, but one thing was sure; her need matched mine, and the space between us elicited heat. Within a blink, we were free of our clothes, and I laid her back on the bed, but she turned me over, kissing me so hard, her eyes filled with desires. I pinned her on the bed, ready to give her what she wanted, and this time, hovering over her, I bit her lips. I traced her earlobe with my tongue, my right hand cupping one of her breasts. A moan left her mouth immediately after my tongue touched her nipple. I suckled on one while one of my hands did magic on the other. I could feel her power restoring, a part of her that had been hidden for years. My mouth left her breast to trail kisses down to her abdomen. She hitched on her breathing immediately and my tongue touched her navel, and she let out a moan in pleasure. 'Liora," I whispered in between kisses as I returned my attention to her succulent lips. I left a few trails of kisses on her neck, rendering her helpless under my grip. "Why are you so sweet?" I asked no one in particular. I wasn't expecting her to answer, but I would be glad if she did, but unfortunately, she was too helpless to answer me. Her fingers found refuge in my hair, tangling and pulling me closer as she moaned my name sweetly.'I'm you.u.rs Ja.x.on. Always and forever." As she said that I could not bear torturing her anymore, I traced my hands down to her entrance. Assured of a smooth entrance, I entered her, and she let out a loud moan. She adjusted her weight on the bed to welcome me in. I dug deeper, letting out a groan. I didn't realize I had been holding back on each thrust. I accompanied the thrust with a kiss, reducing the noise in the chamber. We had become one, our souls intertwined, and our bodies finally moving as one in rhythmic gymnastics. I solidified the moment by moving my lips from her lips to her breast but concentrating more on the thrusts. Everything around us faded away, our energy matching each other. On each thrust, her power kept coming back, her hands glowing and my eyes turning amber-red. I realized it was our strength, what we needed to rule and take over territories of other packs. I noticed how she dug her fingers on the sheets, trying to steady herself. Leaving the sheets, her hands landed on my hair, and her nails dug into my bare skin, moaning and gasping with wide eyes with each thrust. Our union was special; we were on an assignment that we would fulfill. And then, with a loud groan, I captured her succulent lips on mine and recreated the peak of our mating. It was like a dream, we; we wereally one, everything was beginning to fall in pintos, just the way we wanted them it collapsed beside her, I have been on top of her for who knows how long. I pulled her closer, cuddling her in my arms, and taking in the breath of sweat in our bodies. The room was dead silent; nothing moved, no one moved, but there was only one sound: the sound of two hearts beating faster than usual. I planted a kiss to her glittering forehead, as I traced lazy circles on her smooth back. 'Thank you, Liora," I said sweetly. "How do you feel now, about us, about what just happened?" I asked in a soft tone. 'I feel complete," she whispered back while staring at the ceiling. 'I feel… that I am whole again. And this time, stronger." Yes, I could sense that too. Her power had returned, it may not be fully, but to a great percentage. It was enough to rescue the pack if there happened to be an attack. Our union restored her power just as the old man had said, and with the help of the artifacts, she would have her power in full. 'We did it, the will of the moon goddess," I replied instead, as she snuggled closer. 'The pack is safe and would benefit from our union. We are one. No worries, just us, enjoying ourselves." I said, brushing a strand of hair from her beautiful face, giving me a clear view of her blue eyes. She smiled brightly, her eyes glowing with satisfaction and admiration. 'I agree to your terms."
