Alpha Markus and Celeste
Chapter 31
Chapter 31 – Markus
Markus P.O.V.
Ilaid in bed with Celeste nestled against my side. I had been so disappointed when she said she was tired. I know this was a big day
for her. She was being introduced to the pack, and had done her first pack run. She was such a beautiful wolf. Rare, beautiful, powerful
and other worldly. Yet she was still our Tuli. Graceful and playful all at the same time. She was as fast as Atlas, who was enjoying running
with Kara. Feeling her playful bite as she would catch up to him, purring as she would over take him, and let him chase her. Our bond
grew stronger every day. All I wanted was to touch her and be with her. But she was still a bit underweight. The vitamins and food were
helping, but I knew she still got tired and overwhelmed. I had gone to shower to get Atlas under control. He had not been satisfied with
the run. He wanted to claim her. He wanted his connection with his mate.
Thad been trying to talk to Atlas. Calming him down while in the shower that we didn’t hear or notice her smell until she opened the
door to the shower. Atlas and I fought for control as we saw our mate breathtakingly naked. The smell of her arousal filling the shower as
she closed the door behind her. I tried to control Atlas, thinking she didn’t understand what she was doing to us when she suddenly said
the magic words.
“I am ready, Markus. I want to make love to you.”
I was getting hard just remembering her words. The way she touched me, encouraged me and assured that she was ready. I looked at my little ball of fire. Everything about her screamed ‘protect me, yet her aura and her powers said otherwise. I knew that kind of power would be coveted by many. Many wouldn’t respect the mate bond or hesitate to try to take her by force. To use her for her powers and bloodline. I needed to protect her, but I didn’t know how. Atlas would put her under lock and key, but she had been confined to pack
grounds all her life. She deserved to have a life.
I’m not the one thinking she’s fragile, dickhead –
Atlas growled in my head.
Treminded him
Of course, she’s mate. It is our job. I never said she was fragile.
Then what were you talking about?
She has all this power and she doesn’t know how to use it or control it. She’s already shown us what she wants to do. Listen to her
instead of rattling on, blaming me for doubting our mate.
What do you mean?
She had no education and she asked for a tutor. She didn’t know what being Luna meant and she asked for help. Dad is trying to find
someone to help her with her powers. All she needs to be her badass self is to be able to protect herself physically. So get her training
dumbass. A woman like her doesn’t need us to take care of her every step of the way, she needs us to give her the tools to be the goddess
she was born to be.
I looked down at our mate as I heard Atlas school me and realized he was right. Celeste had overcome so much. I was trying to
protect her, thinking her fragile because of it and ignoring the fact that it took a strong person to overcome everything she had and still
be as strong and kind as she is. I sighed. Atlas seemed smug in my head.
We’ll ask her if she wants to train in the morning.
I conceded.
Excellent, now can we take her again? I want to finish that romp I had started with Kara the other night –
Atlas wagged his tail.
I rolled my eyes- She needs rest. We’ll worship that luscious body again in the morning.
I promised.
As is our right – He said before curling up in the back of my head as I felt myself go to sleep.
I woke up to giggling. It was light and musical. I grunted, not ready to wake up, but that only made the giggling increase. I opened
one eye and looked down at our mate.
“What is making you giggle so early in the morning, Tuli. Mornings are for sleeping.” She was giggling so hard that she already had
“I’m – I’m stuck. We’re stuck and I have to pee,” she said, full on laughing now.
“Stuck?” I asked and waited for her to be able to speak again. She was holding her stomach now, tears streaming down her
face.
“Yes! We were wet and icky last night. We’re not wearing any clothes and my back is st – stuck to your chest,” she said, trying to catch her breath. I looked down at my chest. Her back did indeed seem stuck to my chest. I leaned back, and I felt the sticky skin slowly unglue
from each other. I started laughing and that just sent Celeste into another fit of giggles. It was music to my ears. Suddenly she was free
and she jumped up out of bed. I zeroed in on her bouncing breasts as she continued to laugh. Suddenly, she noticed me looking at her
