Chapter 59
Avery's POV.
I've been walking with Erik for the past twenty minutes now and everything was a bore to me.
Leilani kept her distance but I'm sure she could hear everything we were talking about.
"We'll be going on a picnic tomorrow or next, you'll come along, won't you?" I asked in my most sweetest voice, standing to stare at him.
He looks surprised and I love the way I'm giving him some shocks this evening.
"Uhmmmm, that's unexpected but of course, I'll come along sweetheart." He said and raised my hands to his lips and kissed it.
"Thanks Erik. I need to go now, I have a pack meeting tomorrow. The pack meeting would decide if we'll be able to go for a picnic or not." I said and he nodded vigorously like some spoiled robot.
"Good night my Luna." He said, hugged me and I gave him a smile when the hug ended.
"Night Erik."
I was about to leave when I suddenly turned back and pecked him on his cheek.
"Have a great rest Erik." I added and rushed to meet Leilani and we left the stunned Erik standing.
I desperately wish to look back and see his reaction but that wasn't possible because I have to maintain a straight head and leave there.
I bet that if I look back, I'll laugh so hard that I'll die of laughter.
As we reached my room, I jumped into my bed.
"How was my act?" I asked Leilani.
"Top notch Luna, top notch." She complimented me and I smiled broadly.
"Can you get your mate in here, he needs to get rid of your scent on him too." She said and I opened my mouth in awe.
Xander also had my scent imprinted in him.
Oh God!
I just hope no one has noticed it already.
Dammit it!
I should have thought of it since morning, he must have gone to the training ground and OMG!
I just hope my fear doesn't come true
It's evening already and I wonder how many wolves have already smelled him.
Why didn't I think of this earlier???
Stupid me.
I prayed to the moon goddess as I took my phone and called him.
It rang a few times before he finally picked it up.
"Hay baby." He said in a tired voice.
"Xander, come to my room this instant. Make sure that no one sees you and take the window." I said alarmingly and I could guess Xander immediately followed my order.
‘Are you alright baby? You sound worried.’ He asked me through a mind link.
‘Yeah, Just hurry up please.’ I said with urgency.
Leilani went to get the medicine and I waited impatiently for Xander.
He was in my room in a matter of minutes.
He shifted back and I used my powers to clothe him immediately and went to hug him.
Despite the chaos in my mind, I've missed him terribly.
"Are you alright baby?" He was taken aback by everything.
"Where have you been since this morning?" I asked immediately and drew from the hug.
He scratched his head and gave a light chuckle.
"I'm sorry baby, I didn't attend training today. I heard you telling the general yesterday about your absence so I phoned him that I won't be available today." He explained with a half smile.
I felt half relieved.
"I didn't go to train myself." I confessed and he had a confused expression.
"Why then were you asking me?" He asked with a surprise look.
"Did you go anywhere after I left your house?" I returned his question with another.
"Nope, surprising....I was so exhausted after you left that I prepared breakfast for myself and dozed off, your call woke me up." He confessed with an embarrassed chuckle and I let out the breath I didn't know I was holding.
I engulfed him in a big hug and he chuckled and hugged me back.
He stiffened and I withdrew from him to find out what happened.
"Why's Erik's scent lingering on you?" He asked with a frown.
Ohhhhh.
Jealous cooking!
"I went to visit him and we're going for a picnic tomorrow or next." I said and his frown deepened.
"How does visiting him leave his odd scent on you?" He asked, not paying attention to what I just said.
"Fine. We hugged and I pecked him." I told him the truth and I could swear that I saw fire flash across his eyes.
What if I told him I plan on getting romantically involved with him?
He's gonna fry me with looks. Well...I'll have to take things slow with him and explain things to him gradually.
"What!?" He almost shouted.
"Baby, I just need to get close to him and nothing more. I promise." I said kissing his lips.
"I trust you but dammit! I don't like this. I'm serious." He said honestly and I smiled at him.
"I know but we have to do it. For the betterment of our pack." He nodded and grabbed me closer.
"How on earth did you sleep so long?" I asked with a smirk.
"Don't blame me, your body keeps turning me on and on. We were at it the whole night and right now, I'm on for you." He said in a flirty deep voice that sent a tingling sensation to the pit of my stomach.
"You're such a naughty boy." I said, carried away in the moment.
He groaned and pressed his arousal into me and I let out a moan.
"So why have you called me here darling? We can't make out here...can we? You're so loud." He said with a dirty smirk on his mouth and hot blush crept into my cheeks.
"I call you here so you'll get rid of my scent on you." I answered suddenly remembering the main reason why I called him here.
"Huh? Ohhwww... I totally forgot about that. Thanks to the goddess that I overslept." He said with a nervous chuckle.
"How did you get rid of mine?"
"With the help of Leilani." I answered and he had a shocked expression on his face.
"Did she...did she kn..." He stammered.
"Yeah. She knows of you and my newly found powers. Don't worry, I trust her and she's no threat. I feel it." I said to the alarmed Xander.
He let go of me and I went to sit on the bed.
He mused to himself and came to sit beside me.
"If you're sure of her then I'm sure too." He said with some nervousness in his voice.
"Hey baby, everything would be fine, trust me." I assured him.
"I know baby, I'm just scared a bit about the whole thing. I have no problem with Leilani, she's a good one... I felt it the first time I saw her and danced with her." He explained and I nodded.
"We'll be fine baby, we just need to trust each other and not allow anything to come in between us. No matter what happens baby, always trust me because I trust you with everything in me. I swear on the moon goddess." I swore and Xander hugged me to himself.
"I trust you too, my love, I trust you more than myself and I'm happy you felt the same. I promise in the name of the moon goddess that I'll not let my trust in you wither." He promised.
"I love you baby, I've loved you since forever."he added and I deepened the hug.
I don't know what I feel but I like Xander a lot, a whole lot.
I was getting mesmerized in his hug when a knock interrupted.
It was Leilani, I could feel her divine smell from afar.
I used my telekinesis power to open the door and it shut immediately she entered locking itself.
"I'm sorry for the interruption me Luna." She muttered an apology and I smiled.
I beckon to her to come.
She walks up to us.
"Greetings, great warrior." She greeted Xander in a formal way and it brought a surprised look to Xander's face though he immediately concealed it.
"Good evening Leilani, please call me Xander." He corrected and Leilani looked at me for approval.
She's so funny.
I nodded and she bowed to Xander.
"Here, this potion will clear the scent. All you have to do is inhale it." She said and gave us two bottles.
One for each of us.
"And this would energize you Luna just in case you get weak during intimacy." She said and I let out a low gasp.
I could hear Xander softly chuckle.
I didn't discuss this energy potion with Leilani.
She handed it to me and as I took it, I wanted the ground to open and consume me for a while.
"Have this."
He handed us two more bottles and I wonder what this one is for.
"This would remove any little bites or hickeys from your body. All you have to do is mix one drop in your bathing water and use it." She explained.
"Thanks Leilani." We both muttered at the same time earning us a smile from the young girl.
"Good night Luna and Alpha. Have a great night's rest. Let me know if you need me." She said and took a bow before leaving.
I was surprised she addressed Xander as alpha and I'm sure Xander is too.
Who's this Leilani?
The thought disappeared from my head when I felt Xander lips crash on mine.
