Chapter Eighty-Two
Olly, Ryleigh and I are in a bridal store. Olly and Brian have set a date for their wedding and it's coming up quick so Olly wants the dresses sorted today.
“What colour?” Ryleigh asks as she looks through the dresses on the rack.
“Baby blue,” Olly says with certainty.
“Have you already got your dress?” I ask.
“I've found a few online that I like.”
Olly shows us pictures of the dresses she likes on her phone while we wait for the woman in the store to bring out all the baby blue dresses the store has.
Olly tells us to try them all on to see which she likes best. We try them on and model for Olly.
She ends up choosing one with a thin diamond belt around the waist, off the shoulder straps and a little bit of a flow to the bottom of the dress.
We go for lunch after she buys the dresses. We discuss the wedding and what's been planned already. They are having a garden wedding in one of the fanciest gardens in town. Then their reception is at a club. The colour theme is white and blue. The wedding is in two months.
“Elora, how are things with Axe?” Ryleigh asks.
“The past couple weeks have been good. Since Joel's death, Axe has been carefree. I think Axe feels that nothing will get in the way of us now.”
I have to say Joel's dead to them too. Only Dash, Jayceon, Levi and I know he may possibly be alive. But considering how badly injured he was, he's most likely dead.
“I don't think I'll ever get used to how easily you werewolves talk about death,” Ryleigh says.
“Neither will I. I told Brian to keep all his pack business to himself,” Olly says. “It must be shit for you. You're the luna so you have to know everything.”
“Yeah, but it's worth it to be with Axe.”
We girls spend the next few hours helping Olly set the wedding into a defined plan.
We all go back to my house where the guys are waiting for us.
Axe is sitting in the middle of the couch holding Cash while Brian and Dash are sitting on either side of him.
They seem to be gushing over Cash like women do about babies.
“How is Cash?” I ask, setting my purse down on the couch while the girls sit down.
“He's a mummy's boy. It took me forever to get him to stop crying,” Axe says. I chuckle.
Brian and Olly break off into their own conversation and discuss the wedding. I watch Axe holding Cash. I could watch that forever; it's such a pure sight.
“Dash,” Ryleigh calls, snapping him out of his trance. I notice Dash staring a little long at Cash. I think he's ready for kids but I don't think Ryleigh is.
***
Our friends leave after dinner. Axe sends them on their way while I'm upstairs, settling Cash in his cot for the night.
I've decided to be intimate with Axe tonight, just not in the way he's thinking.
Since he's downstairs cleaning the kitchen, I grab the lube and set it on the nightstand and put on one of my sexy nighties.
I sit on the bed and wait for Axe to come in.
When the door opens, Axe's eyes fill with excitement as he stares at my red nightie.
“We're having sex.” He grins and comes over to the bed, leaning in to kiss me.
“Actually... I have an idea... if you want to do it,” I say shyly.
“What's that?” he asks, but slips his finger in my nightie strap and slips it off my shoulder.
“We can try anal,” I whisper the last word quietly. His head shoots up to mine and his eyes go wide.
“I fucking love you.”
Axe smashes his lips to mine, making me fall back against the pillows with his force.
He climbs on top of me and hastily pulls off my nightie and removes my panties.
He pulls his lips from mine and kisses down my neck, paying a lot of attention to my mark before sucking against the skin of my breasts. He looks up at me.
“Are you sure?” His voice is breathless.
I lean over and grab the lube and hand it to him. He bites his lip as he stares at it but then he lays it on the bed, leans up and takes off his clothes. He gives me one last steamy kiss.
“Turn around for me,” he murmurs, making the nerves rise in my belly. I turn on my stomach and feel Axe straddle me. “I've never done this so let me know if it hurts for you.”
“Okay,” I whisper.
When Axe guides his length between my cheeks and teases my ass I feel the cold lube. My breath is shaky and my knuckles are already turning white from clutching the bed sheets in anticipation.
“Are you ready?” he asks, his voice deep with desire.
“Yes.”
I feel him slowly push in. He keeps sliding in, my eyes clenching shut.
When he stops I let out a choked breath.
Oh my God. The intensity is... just too much to explain.
He softly pulls out and goes back in, rolling his hips against me over and over.
His slow thrusts aren't even causing moans to escape from me.
I'm just a silent, breathless mess. Axe is breathing heavily.
I wonder how this feels for him. Naturally, he is a rough creature yet to be this gentle must be torture for him.
It doesn't last long. He curses loudly and then drops down beside me.
I look at him, seeing the fire in his eyes.
“Axe,” I call and he turns his head to look at me.
“Are you okay?” His eyes are returning to their colour.
“Yes.”
“Did you like it?” he asks, his expression hopeful.
“I didn't come if that's what you're asking but it was... wild.” I chuckle breathily.
Axe pulls me against his chest and I rest my head on him. His hand goes up to my hair, and he massages my head, making my eyes roll back in bliss.
“As amazing as that was, I still want regular sex, Elora.”
“I know. I also know I'm just being anxious about it for no reason. It's just weird; a baby came out and now sex just seems like a nerve-wracking thought.”
“I can't believe you let me fuck your ass.” He chuckles, his chest vibrating against my face.
“It's not that surprising, is it?” I ask.
“Yes. If I ever even suggested anal to Alina, she would have gone ballistic.”
“I guess I'm weird then,” I joke.
“No complaints here,” Axe says, making us both chuckle.
