Chapter Nine

Brooks

Being a wolf was exhilarating. After I got used to the new body and the feeling of the wolf in my head, I took Carrick’s advice and let the wolf take over while we ran. It was as adrenaline inducing as any fast-paced game of hockey. Carrick led me on a chase around the island, dodging around, and over, and under everything in our path. It was like some sort of wild obstacle course or speedskating while nobody moved out of your way. I don't know how long we ran, but I could've kept going for hours. I vaguely recalled Nolan suggesting we rest. I felt better than ever. Who needed rest?

At last, Carrick stopped and turned back to me, wagging his tail. I was still getting used to the slew of emotions – not to mention the enhanced scents and sounds – from my wolf, but there was no mistaking the one it felt now. As I approached Carrick my wolf felt like it was overflowing with pure, unadulterated love. It seemed like everything Carrick promised about turning was true. I was young, my knee didn't hurt at all, and aside from the fact we were hiding from the hunter, everything seemed perfect. And while it was clear that my wolf was wholeheartedly in love with him, I was starting to realize I was, too. Maybe the only thing holding me back was myself. Every time I thought about the fact that I wasn't supposed to be gay I freaked out. But when I wasn't thinking about it, when I was just with him... it didn't matter. Maybe I was just thinking too hard. And maybe...

I wondered if maybe I should just let him claim me after all. I wasn't actually sure what that entailed. I mean, I was already a wolf which had been one of the two major factors in my decision. Now, all that was left was to decide whether or not to be mates. My wolf obviously thought we already were. Even as a wolf the little place at the base of my neck was practically throbbing. As I looked at Carrick and considered the love I was obviously feeling for him the little spot, just for a moment didn't hurt.

“How exactly does claiming work?”

Even though he was a wolf I could tell he was surprised by the question. Surprised and maybe a little pleased? I couldn't blame him, it sounded like every shifter dreamed of meeting their true mate. Why shouldn't he be hoping that I wanted to be claimed?

“We bite each other,” he said.

“So, I'd be claiming you as well?” That actually made it sound a little better. Being claimed sounded too much like he was in control. Something I wasn't entirely a fan of.

“I think the language is a little archaic, to be honest. It isn't really claiming, it's more like bonding. We're already true mates, but until we've marked each other it isn’t really official. I'll bite you, right where it hurts, and you bite me.
