Wolf's Obsession (13 page)

With confidence, Raphael strolled into the room where the portal was, along with
twenty or so evil beings who had recently entered through the portal, hell bent
on bringing death and destruction to the planet. Baring his fangs, Raphael laughed
triumphantly as the creatures hissed at him.

His thoughts happily drifted back to his wife, Esme and his daughter, Gabrielle.
Soon, he'd be joining them, a reunion held off too long. He should have died along
with them, centuries ago. With the exception of her ebony skin, Melanie had briefly
reminded him of Esme.

The creatures slowly gathered around Raphael, causing laughter to slip from the
vampire's lips. Happiness filled him as he knew his vile existence would abruptly
come to an end, with a touch of the button.

"I bid you farewell, demon spawn from hell!" Raphael yelled, pushing the button
on Kyle's gadget.

Everyone quickly retreated to the entrance, including Dane, Danoir, and Darius.
Suddenly, the warehouse began to shake violently. Emerging from the entrance to
the warehouse, everyone headed for safety. Suddenly, a loud "whooshing" sound accompanied
with a brilliant flash of white light, flashed through the vicinity of the warehouse;
and then there was darkness. Everyone turned to look at the large spot where the
warehouse once stood, experiencing a spark of relief as they discovered how close
mankind actually came to destruction.

In an effort to leave the horrible scene behind them, everyone met up at a nearby
park, to discuss things. Danoir, Darius, and Dane were completely awestruck at the
fact Raphael had sacrificed himself to save them all.

"What do we do now?" Dane asked.

"We live out the rest of our existence, traveling, doing whatever we've been wanting
to do for years." Darius said. "I told you, there is much I want to do and see,
now is my chance."

"I'm going back to New Orleans." Dane responded.

Thorne and Melanie walked over, joining in the vampires' conversation. Raphael had
left strict instructions of laying their war to rest. From here on out, the pact
was reinforced.

"I've already sent word to the rest of our clan in New Orleans to cease any fighting
per Raphael's orders." Danoir informed Thorne.

"I have done the same," Thorne added, careful not to let the vampires know he was
no longer the leader of the Black Claws.

"Well gentlemen, I'm heading back." With that, Danoir quickly disappeared into the
shadows, leaving Darius and Dane in Thorne and Melanie's presence.

"Thank you both for helping." Melanie told the two vampires. "Is there anything
we can do, anything you need?" she asked, thankful things had ended the way they
did. Thorne wrapped his arm around Melanie's neck, gently pulling her towards him.
Little did he know, he had much kissing up to do.

"Well, we plan on traveling, need to go and see the world, you know?" Darius said
smiling. "At last, we can do that now. New Orleans is the last place I want to go."
The man quickly added.

"I'm in agreement," Dane said. "Let's live it up." Saying their goodbyes to everyone,
Dane and Darius disappeared quickly, happy for the wonderful turnaround. Donovan
and everyone slowly drove back to the community, and daylight would be upon them
in two hours.

Once they arrived to the Jacksons' home, the shaman briefly explained everything
that happened, from Raphael's strange behavior, to why it was so essential for Thorne
and Melanie to stay together.

"So, what was going on with Raphael? Why did he change the way he did?" Melanie
inquired with a shiver.

"Raphael would have never given the clan a moment's peace. He was so hell bent on
wreaking havoc and inflicting pain on others, he didn't realize the damage he was
causing." Hawk explained. "You see Melanie, Raphael wanted to claim you for himself,
actually, he was obsessed with you, almost as obsessed as Thorne was with you when
he first sought you out." Hawk grinned, as Storm handed him a cup of tea.

"He saved me, saved us all." Melanie stated.

"Yes, he did," Hawk said. "You see, it takes more effort for a person to hate than
to love. I think Raphael realized that, after all these centuries. His family was
brutally slaughtered by werewolves when he was human, so in return, he hated all
werewolves. Sometimes, we choose paths not suitable for ourselves and others. Raphael
was in his own personal hell, and tonight, he finally had the strength to escape
it."

"Well, I hope he finally finds peace." Natalie murmured.

"I think he already has." Hawk said, with a grin.

"Wow, you know, sun's almost up!" Brady exclaimed. "Isaac man, you know we won't
make it back in time, should have went home, but glad we got a chance to visit with
our main man and his family, well our family." Brady said.

"You know, you guys are more than welcome to stay here. There is plenty of room
for everyone," Donovan said, stretching and yawning. We have all been through a
lot, so whoever wants to camp out, do so."

"I have dibs on the sofa!" Brady said.

"Oh no fool, we have sleeping bags!" Donovan exclaimed, cracking Isaac up with laughter.
Nat's not chewing my ass out, she hates for folks to sleep on her furniture. Also,
we have some spare bedrooms, just in case!"

"Yeah Brady, stake out a bedroom, perhaps you and Isaac can share, one in the bed,
the other in a sleeping bag," Natalie suggested, putting the Aldelandian talisman
on the table.

"Mom, it's beautiful. Do you think it will work, and we can summon others who may
be existing among the stars?" Melanie asked.

"Oh honey, I don't know about that, but mainly it was created for us to travel where
others may be living. We are physically transported." Nat said. "Can you imagine,
traveling anywhere in the galaxy?" she said wide eyed, as Donovan slowly approached
her from behind, sliding his hands down the length of her body.

"It pleases me to see you this happy Natalie. I think others would love to know
the gift you possess. I'm sure The Cravens would appreciate you sharing this with
them, since they are from Edolonia as well." Donovan insisted.

"Well, I'll let them know about it tomorrow evening, once you've awakened from your
sleep, my love." Natalie murmured softly, almost purring as Donovan lightly stroked
her jawbone.

"Ew," Melanie said, strolling towards Thorne. "I think I've seen enough," The girl
snickered. "No one wants to see that!"

"How the hell do you think you were born?" Donovan asked. "Oh, it's perfectly alright
when your tongue wrestling with young wolf, huh Melanie?" Donovan chuckled.

The house was filled with joyous laughter as everyone quickly settled down. The
wendigos, although not nocturnal still needed to regain the spent energy from the
evening before. Thorne and Melanie silently disappeared upstairs to the room where
they spent their first night. Slowly, Melanie strolled into the room, feeling Thorne's
gaze burn her flesh, she slowly turned to face him.

"Melanie, you don't have to say anything. I was wrong, I was stupid and foolish,
and I'm so sorry I made you feel the way you did. I love you, please know that.
I was shocked, that's all." Thorne confessed.

"Why did you tell me you couldn't do this, carry on with our relationship?" Melanie
asked, desperately wanting an answer. Her cheeks burned as Raphael's face quickly
darted through her mind. The dark vampire was simply rebound material for Melanie,
for Thorne had her mind, body, and soul.

"I wasn't sure if we'd be able to have children Melanie. My clan relies heavily
on that. I was thinking of the clan, neglecting your feelings." Thorne continued.
"Do you think I'm worthy of having your pups?" Thorne asked.

"Yes, I do Thorne." I love you too. And…there, well….I need to explain, about Raphael."
Melanie stammered.

"No, please, not now." Thorne groaned.

"Yes, right now Thorne! I allowed Raphael to touch me, because I didn't know where
you and I stood. Raphael made me feel wanted, and beautiful." Melanie confessed.
"I felt like I was beneath you and not good enough," she added. "I just couldn't
bring myself to actually have sex with Raphael."

"Thank goodness for that!" Thorne growled, averting his gaze from Melanie's. "I'm
not sure how I would react, but at least his scent is almost gone," Thorne said,
pulling the covers down to accompany them both. "It's my fault for driving you into
his arms in the first place. I was an ass for having my doubts. I just hope you
can forgive me."

"Are you mad at me?" Melanie asked, as she slowly approached Thorne from behind,
pressing her soft body against his hard one. A long growl immediately slipped past
his lips, causing his cock to rise.

"I'm not mad at you beautiful," Thorne confessed. "I mean, I still have images flitting
through my mind, but I refuse to dwell on them Melanie. This is something I'll have
to work through on my own."

"I need you to make love to me Thorne," Melanie murmured, rubbing her body seductively
against his. "I need you to show me that you still love me, and find me attractive.
I need you to hold me."

"Melanie, are you sure?" Thorne asked. Melanie was arousing him to no end. He still
felt the same way about her when he first laid eyes upon her in Club Ravenous. "I
think we should carry this outside woman. I don't want to focus on you and Raphael
together, that was the other day. Now, it is you and I, forever! Run wild with me
woman, let's surrender ourselves to the moon. I will make love to you the way you
like." Thorne murmured.

"I forgive you for everything Thorne," Melanie murmured, as his earthly fragrance
tingled within her nostrils. Let's bathe in the lake, not too far away from here!"

"I forgive you Melanie," Thorne whispered. "You are mine, all mine." He breathed
into her ear, allowing his tongue to lightly touch her earlobe and neck. Slowly,
the couple eased down the stairs, uncaring if anyone discovered what they were up
to. Silently, they slipped out the door and into the warm morning air. Dawn was
only half an hour away.

Quickly, Thorne and Melanie ran as fast as they could, down the hill and into the
woods, donning their wolf forms. The larger, black short haired wolf playfully leapt
onto the smaller, slender, silver-haired wolf, playfully pawing at her mate.

Eager to join as one with his mate, Thorne approached Melanie from the rear, unprepared
as she quickly turned around, latching on to his shoulder with her teeth, flinging
him to the ground. Stunned, and highly aroused by Melanie's pheromones, Thorne graciously
accepted the challenge. Purposely, Melanie decided to give Thorne a hard time, pushing
him away each time he tried to mount her. They carried on in this manner for several
minutes, until they helplessly surrendered to their raging hormones.

Eventually, Melanie allowed Thorne to enter her from behind. Sliding deep inside
her, Melanie growled, laying her front half to the ground so her haunches were high
in the air, allowing Thorne access to all she had to offer. Bending down, Thorne
gripped Melanie's neck with his powerful jaws, gently tightening with each thrust.

As the couple made love under the full moon, they shifted from wolf to human form,
and back to wolf momentarily. Eventually, their wolf forms lost out to their human
forms. Entwined in one another's arms, they continued their brazen dance, underneath
a tree and some tall grass next to a quiet lake.

Changing positions, Thorne and Melanie lay on their sides. Gently, Thorne brushed
his cock lightly against Melanie's voluptuous ass cheeks, causing a soft whimper
to escape her lips. Reaching around, he gently caressed Melanie's full breasts,
causing her erect nipples to swell further. Burying his face in her neck, Thorne
inhaled her powerful intoxicating feminine scent, while his large powerful hands
explored every inch of his mate's body.

Melanie thrust her ass against Thorne's cock, coaxing him to take her in their current
position. She shuddered as Thorne's tongue savored her neck, causing her arousal
to slowly dribble along her inner thighs. Impatiently, she guided his large hand
to her pussy, sighing as Thorne slid a long, thick finger inside her. Quickly he
pulled out, stroking her clitoris, bathing it in her juices.

Thorne guided his cock inside Melanie's tight cavern as he bit her neck, causing
her silky wet sheath to tighten around him. Propping himself up on an elbow, Thorne's
thrusts quickened as Melanie threw her head back against his chest, moaning with
pleasure.

"Do you want me baby?" Thorne asked, slowly pumping in and out of Melanie's body,
the urge to please her completely consuming him. "Tell me what you want, and how,"
he whispered seductively in Melanie's ear.

"Yes, oh…fuck, yes…Thorne." Melanie choked. "Like that, harder please, fuck , oh,
ooohhh," Melanie moaned loudly. "I want you, oh God, I want you!" she called at
the top of her lungs, as Thorne pulled her hair gently.

"What do you want, beautiful?" Thorne breathed.

"Pinch my nipples, hard!" Melanie moaned.

Obeying his lover's command, he intensified his grip on Melanie's erect nipples,
causing her to gush, drowning his cock with hot, thick cream. Growling, Thorne slammed
harder into Melanie as her essence slowly oozed down the base of his cock, pubic
hair, and his large, pulsating balls.

"Finish this Thorne, make me yours, now!" She moaned. "Mark me, take me, ohhh….fuck
me, harder!" Melanie howled, briefly shifting into wolf form. Her eyes shone a brilliant
silver, highlighted with flecks of gold.

"You're mine, forever and always," Thorne moaned through gritted teeth. His dark
eyes were glazed over with intense pleasure as he bit Melanie hard on her neck,
marking her as his for life.

"Harder!" Melanie gasped,the pleasure building slowly within her core from Thorne's
swift thrusts and the pleasurable hold he had on her with his teeth. One hand grasped
her dark tresses, while the other gently stroked her jawbone, as the two writhed
wildly against one another.
