Underneath the celestial canvas, the night sky unveiled its splendor, a breathtaking tapestry of stars that seemed to stretch on
forever. The moon, a radiant sentinel, cast its ethereal glow over ke''s tall figure, illuminating it in a way that caused my body
to pause
Beneath the night''s pretty sky, the moon lit up ke''s face nicely. | nced at him and the soft fabric at his hands back and forth.
ke noticed my look, though his face stayed serious. But | saw a bit of red on his cheeks.
ke... Doesn''t he seem embarrassed?
It was a vulnerability | hadn''t seen in him before, as if there was a moment of unspoken intimacy between us.
| puzzled over the cause of his bashfulness for a moment. Then, like a light bulb turning on, it hit me. Could it be that he felt self-
conscious about seeing me without any clothes on?
After all, as werewolves, our transformations often led to torn clothing, and we usually didn''t have time to worry about modesty.
In cases of emergencies, we don''t even think about it and just shift no matter who was present.
Nakedness is a natural part of our lives and we as werewolves embrace it with grace.
Maybe tonight, the atmosphere felt different, but seeing ke acting shy like that... | also felt embarrassed but at the same time,
| felt being a little yful and wanted to tease him.
"ke," | began, feigning innocence, "why is your face as red as a ripe tomato? Is it because of the heat?" | tilted my head,
pretending not to understand.
ke heard me and turned even redder. He looked away and cleared his throat. "It''s not very windy tonight," he said, trying to
sound normal. But... | wasn''t about to let him off easy.
“Wind, huh?" | said with a suggestive smile. "You might be right. It''s pretty warm tonight." | pushed a strand of hair behind my
ear, giving ke a sultry look. "Since it''s so hot, maybe | shouldn''t bother with this cloak. | mean, you''ve seen it all before." |
shrugged, acting like it was no big deal.
ke remained frozen for a few heartbeats before finally turning his gaze towards me. Our eyes locked, and for a moment, his
thoughts were a mystery to me. Then, a sly grin curled upon his lips, and the atmosphere shifted dramatically. The timid ke I
had seen earlier was reced by something more potent, an air of danger that surrounded him like an electrifying current.
"If that''s your desire," he purred with a teasing lilt in his voice, "then consider it granted." His words sent a jolt through me, and
my eyes widened in surprise. My yful attempt to tease him had backfired! ke had taken a bold step forward instead of
retreating!
ke leaned closer, his breath brushed against my ear, and his voice dropped to a sultry whisper.
"It''s been years since | held you. For me... that time felt like forever. But | had nned to take things slow, to give you the time
and space you need after all we''ve been through," he confessed in a hushed tone.
"But Chloe, if you wish for us to draw closer faster," he continued, his voiceced with temptation, "then I''m more than willing to
oblige."
| was rendered speechless, feeling like a teenager experiencing her first love, my mind spinning with a whirlwind of emotions.
Unable to respond to ke''s provocative words, | abruptly snatched the cloak from his grasp and made my way behind the trees
to change. When | returned, the silk cloak enveloped my body, hiding my regr clothes safely out of sight.
ke''s eyes were fixed on me, and though he said nothing, his gaze spoke volumes.
The way he looked at me... it was as if | were the most beautiful woman in the world, and my heart raced within my chest.
Frozen in ce, | was supposed to start shifting, yet | stood there like a statue, neither of us uttering a word.
Then, as if on cue, ke stepped closer, his arm encircling my waist, drawing me into a warm embrace.
Startled but not resisting, | melted into his arms, and he held me close, as if he never wanted to let go. His voice was a gentle
murmur in my ear as he whispered, "| wasn''t merely teasing you, Chloe. Every word | spoke was true."
My heart pounded loudly, and | trembled as he continued, "Chloe, | offer you the choice. Do you wish to spend this night with me,
or... shall | wait?"
His words carried both deep emotion and seductive allure, and my body tingled, goosebumps forming on my skin. Held by my
mate, held by ke, my entire being felt aze, a fire that threatened to consume me whole.
My body screamed its desire to be with him.
But... more than my body''s desire, | knew that my heart was not yet ready.
Thus, | summoned the strength to whisper, "Not tonight, or in the immediate future. Our hearts need more time to heal, ke.
We must wait."
ke held me close, not letting go,
but his grip on my waist became
more tender, hi egnpeats gemiter He
JOseDHIS Ses, taking in my scent as
if it were the elixir that kept him
grounded. Then, he sighed softly.

"Alright," he conceded, his voice gentle and warm. "I''ll respect your wishes." With those words, he finally released me.
As his arms let go, | felt a strange
emptiness, a yearning to pull him
back into that ing,endbface.

granting me space. His smile
softened the moment, and he asked,

Several hours passed, and |y on the grass, my breath heavy andbored. | gazed up at the sky, where the dawn’s first light
was about to break.
"Good job tonight," ke praised me, offering a bottle of water and sitting beside me. "You should rest and try to get some sleep.
Today, our packs willmence joint training.”
| took a sip of water and nodded, my curiosity getting the better of me. "ke, can you tell me about our training today?"
During our meeting, we''d agreed that the Frost Fang Pack would assist my pack members in their training, but | hadn''t had the
chance to inquire about the specifics.
"Well," ke began, his tone
thoughtful, "your eae stre
