CHAPTER 11

The early evening sky was painted gold, red and deep purple. The trees surrounding the compound had started to turn, mirroring the majesty overhead, letting a few fall in graceful lazy circles to the ground below. Carson tucked her hand in Chase's as they strolled along in the muted shadows of the woods, kicking up the leaves that had settled in the pathways. He took a deep breath and stopped, pulling his arm gently until she turned and looked at him. A gentle stain crept up her cheeks turning them a soft pink. Raising his right hand up, he gently cupped her cheek, his thumb brushing against her blushing cheeks. “So beautiful” he murmured. He gently tucked a strand of her coal black tresses behind her ear, then leaning in, nuzzled her neck tenderly, taking in the unique scent of her; lilacs, vanilla and warm sun kissed honey. He groaned. His heartbeat quickened and tingles raced along his nerves from the contact. Inhaling deeply, he felt the wolf in him growl and fight for control. She was right there and the urge to bite her and to claim her here, right now, and to finish the bonding was bordering on a compulsion. He hissed, closing his eyes and took a step back, forcing the beast back into the depths of his stomach. The wolf snarled one more time but backed off when he assured him it wouldn't be much longer, that soon she would be theirs. The gentle touch of his mate caressed his cheek and he opened his eyes, the normal chocolate hue now glowing with gold. “Don't,” he whispered, his voice strained and still gravelly from the inner power struggle. “Not much control.”

She nodded. “I know. I feel it too. My wolf is digging a hole in my belly to get to you.” She dropped her hand and took a step back as well; her back hit a tall spruce behind her. “Just a few more days. I love you, Chase.”

“And I love you too, Carson.”

He took a moment more to calm himself. Closing his eyes again he mentally recited the names of the bones in a human body. Carson has a luscious body. His wolf reminded him, as if he needed it. He growled at the beast to be quiet as he continued to struggle with dominance.

“Chase?”

“I'm alright. Just... Saturday can't come too fast for me. I don't know how much more I can take. I always knew that mates would be a strong pull, that there would be an attraction that you couldn't resist. I mean, I knew it and I've seen it, but until now I never really understood it. I've read the histories; I've heard others speak of it but to actually experience it. I just don't have the words to express how it feels.” He shook himself, satisfied that he was again in control.

She nodded and gave him one of her beautiful smiles. “I know. I've dreamed others and have experienced some of the emotions that they felt at that moment.
