Mysterious Appeal

Aubrianne opened the door for Rafael to enter and placed the spread on the nearby table in her room.

"You are welcome, Luna. Anything for you and Alpha." Rafael set down the spread and got busy preparing the plates and placing the cutlery where they were supposed to go.

She smiled at him as he did his thing. Soon, Zayne came out of the shower, a towel hung low on his waist, and he attempted to dry his hair with another towel as his eyes slid to Aubrianne, then Rafael.

Aubrianne's eyes greedily scanned his toned sexy body, appreciating that V that disappeared into the towel, and oh Goddess, her pvssy clenched, and she creamed.

Soon her arousal was causing even Rafael to react.

Zayne's nose flared, and Aragorn was at the surface; however, on seeing Rafael's eyes blazing with desire, Aragorn growled viciously.

Causing...

Aubrianne creamed some more.

While Rafael jumped and backed away, his hands shooting out in surrender, "Alpha, I am so sorry. I..I...I don't know what that was."

Rafael was confused by his reactions to his Luna.

Zayne knew what it was, which was one reason Aragorn was itching to mark her.

Whitewolfs are naturally alluring; their scent has a mysterious appeal! Even a mated wolf would struggle, and Rafael was unmated.

Zayne sighed, his eyes sliding to his mate, "We need to get that sorted asap." Aubrianne smiled warmly, but she nodded. She understood his meaning.

Zayne had gotten dressed in one of Aubrianne's baggy jerseys and her most enormous trousers, which looked a little like leggings on Zayne; they were that tight, but the hip and crotch area were baggy.

That allowed for some much-needed room in that area. However, they highlighted Zayne's strong carves and thighs perfectly.

Zayne then made what he needed to get very clear before perching himself on one seater couch. Proper clothing. He sat and leaned forward, his elbow on his knee, falling forward, his fingers touching slightly.

His muscles bulged, and his hands down to the back of his palms were those sexy veins pulsing beautifully.

He'd directed Rafael to sit on the couch beside him. Zayne then enquired about the affairs of his community.

Rafael had said he could not get onto anyone, but he only just tried to get an update; he would keep trying. He'd been 'busy,' and also that the crew in Aubrianne's wing was eager to know when the meeting would convene.

Zayne had looked at Aubrianne, who was eye-f*cking her mate and admiring the hell out of him from her closet door. She'd gone in to grab a change of clothes but had opted to stay naked under her robe.

On her way back to her mate, she got caught up checking him out on her one-seater, looking like a sexy sex God sitting there, all Alpha-like talking business.

Zayne could not help his smirk, and Aragorn said, 'Our mate is checking us out..., but it could prove fatal, though.' Knowing what comes next when she checks them out.

He was ready to kill Rafael for reacting to HIS mate.

'Indeed.' That was all Zayne said to him.

Nonetheless, Zayne asked Aubrianne when she would be up for a meeting with everyone. She finally pushed off the closet door and strolled to her mate.

They only had today before they left on Monday.

Aubrianne knew she already had that doctor's appointment in the morning, then was off to see Jada's mom.

And more importantly, right now, today, at this moment, time with her mate was all she wanted.

Eventually, reaching her mate, she stood before him, and Zayne automatically sat up. His hands brushed her thigh, and Aubrianne slid into his lap. Zayne leaned all the way back on the couch.

As Aubrianne sat upright, Zayne's hand held her at that place where her legs creased, fingers almost brushing against her cervix.

Aubrianne finally sighed and answered, "Fine, tell everyone, including my father..." Aubrianne saw how Rafael subtly flinched at 'my father' and faltered at her words.

Aubrianne sensed Rafael's hesitation, worry, and waves of stress that he tried to hide. She recalled how he stood up for his Alpha, her mate, and she was glad that he did.

He may be uncomfortable with Theo at the moment, which is understandable, and she doesn't want him to be uneasy.

Aubrianne said, "You know what? You can simply tell only Jada. Find her, and she will tell the others along with Mr. Grey. We meet at eight pm, the same place."

"Yes, Luna, I will," He bowed in respect for his Luna, who was already caring for him, and to Rafael, she seemed sincere.

"Oh, and Rafael?" Aubrianne spoke again, "Yes, Luna." Rafael's brows rose curiously.

"Thank you for what you did" Aubrianne looked back at her mate, "What I don't understand is why this one tried to stop you?" She locked eyes with Zayne.

Zayne tensed, but Aubrianne felt it, sitting on his lap after all, and Rafael smiled nervously, knowing exactly why his Alpha tried to stop him.

He did not want his mate to find out about all that he was into; not wanting to scare her, he wished to introduce her slowly, but not like that.

Finding out everything all at once could be too much for anyone to handle.

But his little mate had a completely unexpected reaction. She was HOT for him, which had him wondering why he was even nervous in the first place.

Had he known, he would have led with that since, at the ball, he smiled devilishly, knowing how turned she was for him.

In the end, Zayne could admit he did enjoy the results of Rafael stepping in.

He smiled sheepishly, pulling her to him. Aubrianne leaned back, her head on his shoulders as Zayne bent and snuggled between her head and shoulder as he sniffed.

He exhaled, "I did not want to scare you away." He spoke honestly, his tone steady. Then he smiled, "But your reaction surprised me," and you could hear the amazement in his voice.

Zayne sniffed again, wanting to drown himself in his mate's intoxicating scent. Aubrianne rose from Zayne again, "Were you planning on not telling me anything?"

Her tone was curious because one thing Aubrianne could not handle was someone keeping things from her, especially with claims of protecting her.

Zayne quickly pulled her back to him, feeling the loss of her warmth tenfold, his tone absolute but soothing and reassuring, "Not a chance; I planned to introduce you to everything slowly."

"My concern was not scaring you off completely from the start, and I thought that hearing everything altogether may have been too much for someone to handle."

"I never intended to keep you in the dark entirely," Zayne explains.

Aubrianne visibly relaxed, and it was then she realized just how tense she was about his answer. She nuzzled into him, sniffing him, taking in his smell. It has become her favorite.

Oh, how she'd grown to love his scent, that blast of passion fruit, blackcurrant, apple, and wild orchid. With notes bursting with peppery rose, birch, jasmine, and patchouli, wonderfully woody, deep, and heady.

With hints of oak moss, ambergris, and a light dusting of vanilla, adding the finishing touch of virile sensuality.

"Good," she finally whispered in his chest, and Zayne held her tightly.

Nevertheless, soon they wrapped things up, Zayne dismissed Rafael, and with the breakfast at the table and Aubrianne's arousal in the air, the pair swallowed their breakfast and got back at it like two horny rabbits.

Earlier...

Everybody else in Aubrianne's wing was awake. However, it was one of those days when you just wanted to lay around and do absolutely nothing after a long night of partying.

Daniela had snuck out early after her time with Rafael. She wanted to have a word with her father.

While Jada, Shawn, Kirrah, and Rafael had their breakfast, they lay around in the living room discussing Aubrianne's fantastic mate and his work.

They all agreed that they would help, already knowing Aubrianne would not stand by and watch from the sidelines.
