1605 Words
“Well my love I think its time for bath,” he says grabbing her hand and pulling her towards the the bathroom. “Together,” she questioned stopping just outside the bathroom, realizing what he may be implying. “Although I am fond of that idea I think we can save that for another time,” he replied with a wink. “I’m just going to draw the bath for you and while you relax and wash away all the events of yesterday I will go find you some clothes to wear so we can go out for the day.” She didn’t protest as he pulled her through the bathroom door and left her standing near the sink as he turned to start her bath. Turning the nobs and fiddling with them feeling the water in between to find the right temperature, Trinity found herself mesmerized by him and every small movement of his sexy body. Grabbing onto the counter behind her she lifted herself back, sat down leaving her hands on the edge, and continued to enjoy the view. Once the water was a good temperature he pushed a button to cover the drain and allow the water to fill the tub. Next he made his way over to the cupboard built into the wall next to the shower, grabbed two towels, and turned to place them on a stool next to the tub but was instantly distracted once he noticed the position his beautiful mate was in on the sink counter. In a flash the towels were on the floor and he was settled in between her legs, catching her off guard, and causing her to grab onto his broad shoulders to settle herself. He couldn’t help himself any longer as his hands found their way behind her pulling her into him with such force she was sure she heard her back c***k. He leaned down kissing her deeply hoping it would satiate his need to take her right then and there. It seemed to work, calming both he and his wolf down. He pulled back and rested his head against hers as he stared deeply into her green eyes filled with caution and wonder. He could tell a part of her was holding back from him. She had built up this wall to protect herself and he was determined to tear it down brick by brick. He would try his best to learn as much as he could today and make her feel as comfortable as possible with him. All he could think about was ripping the shirt off over her head and having his way with her right there on the counter but instead reached up to caress her cheek and placed a soft kiss on her forehead before stepping away. He wanted to do more but quickly calmed himself with that kiss because he didn’t want to rush things with her. He would use every ounce of will power he had to take things slowly with her but he knew he would need at least a few kisses here and there to keep his lust for her in check. Picking the towels up from the floor, placing them on the stool and turning the water off he lifts her from the counter and hands her a bath bomb from a container behind her on the counter. “After you get in throw this bad boy in there with you and it will help relax your mind and muscles,” he said and turned to leave. “Thank you,” she replied sweetly grabbing his hand before he could leave. Lifting herself up on her toes yet again she planted a gentle kiss on his cheek, let go of his hand, and waited for him to leave to rid herself of his shirt and slip into the tub. It was the perfect temperature and after plopping the bath bomb he handed her in the tub the feeling of the fizzy substance around her body helped her entire body relax slip completely under the water. Trinity couldn’t remember the last time she had taken a bath it was probably before her parents disappeared. She thought about when she was a little girl playing with rubber ducks in the bathtub at their house in her packs village. She would make them dive down under the bubbles head first, just like she had seen them do in real life, and then bring them back up making a quack quack sound as she would guide them around the tub with her tiny fingers. She would splash water all over the floor and giggle as her mother would scold her from just outside the bathroom for making such a mess. Then her sweet mother would come in and pry her from the tub drying her off and getting her into her pajamas. Her father would come in to dry and brush her hair, and place it in a small braid for her to sleep in. All three would brush their teeth together making silly faces in the mirror trying to get the other to laugh. Whoever made the funniest face for to pick out which book to read for the night, she won every night of course. Her mother and father would each take a seat on either side of her in bed and take turns reading a story to help her sleep. The memory brought tears to her eyes and a moment later a small tap at the door. "Are you ok," Kal questioned through the door with great concern in his voice. "I'm fine," she replied wiping the tears away wondering how he knew she was crying. "I'll be out in a minute." After washing herself up and rinsing off Trinity climbed out of the tub releasing the water by pushing the same button Kal had earlier. Wrapping her hair in one towel, drying her body off with the other, and wrapping it tightly around her body a little self conscious about how much of her was showing. She was uncomfortable in her own skin, she liked to keep herself covered, and only when she was in her wolf form was she truly comfortable although that may be because she was covered entirely in fur. Shaking the nerves taking over her body she walked back out into the bedroom to find Kal at the desk in the room typing away on his laptop. "How did you know I was upset," she questioned out of pure curiosity. "Our mate bond of course. I can sense when you are sad, happy, angry, etc. I feel what you feel at all times." "I can't feel... you," she pointed out, unsure as to why that was. "You can feel me anytime you want," he said jokingly breaking away from his computer to let her see the devilish smile taking over his face. "I'm only kidding babe. If I'm honest with you I believe it's because you haven't truly opened yourself up to the idea that I am in fact your mate and until you accept that fact you won't be able to feel anything from me." "That makes sense," she said making her way over to the bed and sitting on the edge. "I'm sorry." "My love don't apologize," he replied taking his place next to her on the edge of the bed and pulling her into him. "Not everyone reacts the same way to the mate bond. There are those who take time to open up and accept it completely and that is perfectly acceptable in this situation especially since we barely know each other. Most mated wolves come from the same pack and grew up together, we are almost complete strangers.
 "Thank you," she said looking up at him with her sweet eyes. "For what?" "Being so understanding and patient with me. This is all new to me. I've been on my own for so long but since I've been around you I no longer want to be alone. It's a new and foreign feeling to me." "Take all the time you need. I'm not going anywhere," he replied, kissing her delicately on the lips before letting her go and standing from the bed. "I am going to get take a quick shower and let you get dressed. Then we are going to go out for the day, do some shopping, and hopefully get to know each other a bit better. I left some of my sisters old clothes in the closet for you. Since she moved away to be with her mate I doubt she'll have a use for it." With that he snuck into the bathroom to shower and she wandered into the walk in closet to see what he had picked out for her. The first thing she pulled from the bag he had placed in there was a dress to which she scoffed at, tossing it to the side of the bag. She dug through the bag until she found a pair of jeans and a pink plaid button up. She much preferred dark colors mostly because black and grey made it easier to slip in and out of places in the dark but that was the only thing in the bag she felt comfortable wearing. Once she was dressed she went back out and decided to sit on the balcony to wait for Kal to be done in the shower, she wanted to take in the scenery surrounding the pack house since she didn't get to enjoy it in the dark the night before. It was quite a sight.
