Chapter 37 (Caroline)


    “My heavens! Why are you just sitting there?! Get her inside,” I heard Lena say. Keegan shifted his


    hold on me and stood easily. He was holding me bridal-style. He held me tightly as his mom put a light


    nket over me. Keegan walked briskly with his mom and the guys behind him. Little by little, I started


    calming down. We emerged into the house and Keegan kept walking. He took me up the stairs to a


    room and took me to the bathroom; closing and locking the door behind us. I clutched the nket I’d


    acquired tightly as light sobs escaped my lips. I rested my head on Keegan’s chest as his hand rubbed


    my back gently. We stayed there until my sobbing stopped. I dropped the nket to the tile floor and


    wrapped my arms around Keegan’s neck. He hesitated before his arms came around my waist. I


    buried my head in his neck as his hand rubbed smallforting circles in the small of my back.


    “Are you okay now?” he asked gently. I nodded slowly. It seemed like Keegan was getting angrier by


    the second. “I’m going to kill Asher,” he growled. By the tone of his voice, I knew he wasn’t kidding. I


    pulled away and sniffled as I wiped the tears from my eyes. His face softened at the sight of me. I


    shook my head.


    “It’s not his fault. It’s really no one’s fault,” I sniffled. I gave a shaky breath as I looked at the duvet.


    “Two years ago, I was in the car with my parents and we were going over a bridge. This other car lost


    control and… we went into the water. Both of my parents died… it’s why I live with my brother now. I’ve


    been deathly afraid of water and being in a car over bridges ever since. And that’s how I got those


    scars,” I exined hoarsely. I feltfortable enough around Keegan that I could open up to him. Even


    if it meant telling him something I never talked about with anyone. He wiped away tears I didn’t even


    know fell. He sighed and reached forward to kiss my forehead.


    “I’m so sorry,” he whispered. I sighed as my eyes closed. I wrapped my arms around his trim waist. I


    could practically hear Keegan’s gears turning in his head. I looked at his face as I ced a hand on his


    chest.


    “Don’t,” I said, pulling back. His eyes furrowed in confusion. I sighed and hit him with the palm pf my


    hand as hard as I could. “Don’t kill Asher. He didn’t know,” I exined.


    “I want to kill him for hurting you,” Keegan growled.


    “You hurt me too,” I countered. I know it was a low blow, but I wanted him to get it. His face contorted in

    pain, anger and sadness all at the same time.


    “I didn’t mean to and I’m so, so sorry,” Keegan said quickly.


    “I know that. I also know that Asher didn’t mean it either. He was just excited and wanted to have fun.


    Just like you,” I said. His face dropped as he got the point. I sighed and looked away before continuing


    my story about the ident. “The ident… it caused my appendix to rupture and grazed a few other


    organs. I had two broken ribs and a fractured corbone. It was really… I had to have three different


    surgeries and when I woke up in the hospital, I found out that my parents didn’t make it… but those


    surgeries left scars that you wouldn’t believe. I’ve always been really self-conscious about them.” I


    exined. I think by this point, I was just talking to talk. I hadn’t really talked to anyone about what


    happened. Danny knew, but only because the police had to tell him. Keegan’s hand went to my


    stomach as he traced the scars. I sighed and rxed. His eyes went back up to mine.


    “I’ll get you a change of clothes and a towel to dry off,” he said before he kissed my cheek and left. I


    sighed and leaned against the edge of the huge tub. His bathroom was really nice. He had a full ss


    shower with a detachable shower-head, two sinks with a long connecting counter and a huge mirror


    covering the wall all above it, a roomy toilet roomplete with a magazine rack, and a huge Jacuzzi-


    style bathtub that could easily fit three people—or arge wolf. Iughed lightly to myself. I must have


    been on drugs or something. There was no way that Keegan was a werewolf. There was no possible


    way. The door creaked open and Keegan walked in with a towel and a change of clothes. I started


    pulling off my clingy wet shirt. I tossed it in a near hamper and started pulling off my shorts.


    “Caroline,” Keegan said slowly. I stepped out of my shorts and tossed them in the hamper also. I was


    well aware that I was in nothing more than my ckce thong and matching push up bra.


    “What?” I said answered, finally looking at him. His eyes flickered to my stomach. I grabbed the towel


    quickly and balled it up in front of my stomach as I blushed. “I’ll be out in a minute,” I snapped quietly.


    Keegan didn’t take the hit, or if he did, he ignored it. He set down the change of clothes down and


    walked closer to me. He slowly took the towel from my hands and set it down on the counter as well.


    His expression was soft and understanding.


    “Hey, it’s okay,” he said softly. Looking into his amber eyes, I believed him. His hand reached up


    hesitantly and touched my stomach. I let out a breath and closed my eyes. “You’re beautiful, Caroline.


    Don’t let anyone tell you differently,” he said softly. I opened my eyes to see him looking me with…


    love. I tangled my hands in his hair and pulled him to my lips. He inhaled deeply as his hands slid to my


    waist. He picked me up and sat me on the counter. He sat in between my legs and pulled my lower


    back so I was flush to him. Something poked me in the thigh as my back arched to meet him. His


    tongue flicked inside of my mouth. His hands gripped my hips tightly as he groaned. His lips moved to


    nip my ear. I gasped as my stomach did a million back flips and turns.


    “I love you… every inch of you,” he whispered gently before he pulled away to look at me. I froze and


    my eyes shot open. There it was: the L word. Keegan said he loved me. The thought that he felt for me


    the same way I felt about him made it a little harder to breathe.


    Keegan loved me.


    I sat there in shock for a minute as I tried to process this. Keegan loved me: that’s all that continued


    running through my head. His eyes searched my face, nervous of what I would say. He was scared, I


    could see that. Did he not already know that I loved him too? It was obvious to me, but then again, I


    knew my own thoughts. Keegan had no idea what I was thinking. I smiled at him lightly and released a


    breath. I moved one of my hand to cup his face as my thumb ran over his cheek.


    “I love you too, Keegan,” I whispered. He smiled before he kissed me deeply. I moved my hand back to


    his soft, short ck hair. The kiss picked up pace quickly, making my heart beat wildly. I was pretty


    sure Keegan could hear it. His hand slid up my back and then back down. He groaned when I slipped


    my fingertips under the hem of his shirt to rest on the edge of his jeans. I pulled his shirt up and he


    raised his arms for me before his hands went to my knees and slid up my legs,ing dangerously


    close to the hem of my thong. His lips attached to my neck and he sucked on it gently. His hands


    slipped over my hips and he squeezed my backside. His lips traveled further south and he kissed the


    top of my chest. I arched my back and let my head fall back.


    “I need to stop,” Keegan breathed as his lips brushed against my neck. I didn’t want him to stop. His


    lips attached back to mine and my nails dug into his back. He growled and bit my lip gently. “Caroline,”


    he breathed huskily. He was trying to control himself and I could see that. I moaned loudly as he nipped


    at my ear and hit my sweet spot on my neck. Keegan finally gave in. *~* He lifted me by my thighs and


    I wrapped my legs around his waist as his lips crashed back to mine. He moved his hand to my butt


    and squeezed it roughly. I let out a small breathy gasp. Keegan walked out of the bathroom and into his


    bedroom. How he did that while driving me insane at the same time, I have no clue, but he did. He set


    me down on the bed and hovered over me keeping his lips on mine the whole time. My hands reached


    down and fumbled with his belt before I managed to get his pants off. He kicked them off. His hand


    moved up my leg as his other one propped himself up. His hand inched closer to my underwear. He put


    his knee up on the bed in between my legs. His lips were magic against mine. Fire shot to my core. I


    felt his hand on my underwear straps and then my underwear was off. I opened my eyes breathlessly


    just in time to watch Keegan tuck my underwear into the back pocket of his jeans. His eyes ranked over


    me lovingly and lustfully. I fought the urge to cross my legs and cover up.


    “You’re so beautiful,” he muttered before his lips were on mine fiercely. I ran my hands down his chest


    and rubbed my hand over the front of his flimsy boxers. I was greeted with a big surprise. He groaned


    and his hand squeezed my thigh above my bent knee. He pushed my legs open more before his hands


    went behind my arched back and snapped off my bra. I quickly tossed it to the side and pulled


    Keegan’s shoulders down so his lips were on mine again. He trailed kisses down my neck and chest.


    When he got to my stomach, he nced up at me almost as if he were asking for permission. I granted


    it and he ced light, gentle kisses along every single scar. His lips came back to mine and I attacked


    him fiercely. He hand came up and rubbed my swollen and ready lips gently as his mouth continued to


    move with mine. I moaned and wiggled my hips to get closer to his hand.


    “Fuck, Caroline,” he muttered into my neck. He teasing was driving me nuts. Finally, he slipped a finger


    into my throbbing core. I squealed/moaned as my eyes snapped shut and my jaw went ck. My back


    arched as I forgot how to breathe. He slid his middle finger out before pushing it in again. My hands


    gripped his shoulders and Keegan pumped his finger in and out repeatedly and it drove me mad. I was


    squirming the whole time. My breaths wereing in pants now. He did this for a while before he


    added another finger, making my squeal again. He groaned against my mouth and thrust his fingers


    deep inside me. I couldn’t help it, I yelled out something incoherent as my eyebrows knitted in pain


    leasure. I was a virgin through and through, so this was my first time for anything. I hadn’t even made


    out with a guy before Keegan. His lips left my body. I opened my eyes to see Keegan watching me as


    he thrust his fingers into me roughly. I gasped and couldn’t keep my eyes open. They shut tightly as my


    leg started shaking. A loud, long moan escaped my lips. I moved my hips into his hand as Keegan


    sped up. Knots and butterflies filled my stomach as my aching womanhood pulsed. My chest heaved


    as my nails dug into Keegan’s shoulders as he hovered over the side of me. My toes curled and my


    back arched as my knees slid closer to my torso. I let out a series of short quick breaths before my


    body rxed. I took a deep breath to try and calm my breathing but it didn’t work. I was still worked up.


    I could feel my heartbeat pulsing in my core. Keegan removed his fingers and brought it up to his


    mouth. I watched intrigued as he licked his fingers clean. He moved to hover above me; his lips only


    centimeters from mine.


    “I can’t wait to taste you for real,” he said huskily before his lips were on mine gently. I could feel his


    long shaft against my entrance through his boxers. It felt good. I wasn’t even scared. I knew it would


    hurt a little at first but I loved Keegan. I wanted to be with him. I pushed my hips down so that his tip put


    a little pressure on my entrance. His deep groan was probably the sexiest thing I’d ever heard. He froze


    a moment before he pulled away from me.


    “Not yet,” he breathed. I looked in his face and saw reluctance. He wanted to, but something was


    stopping it. He kissed me deeply and his shafty in front of my entrance again. I reached down and


    pulled his shaft through the hole in the front of his boxers, quickly pulling him to my entrance, but his


    hips froze as he resisted. He gasped before he groaned huskily, and very loudly, and dropped his head


    in the crook of my neck. He trembled lightly before he pulled away again. This time, he jumped off the


    bed and tried to catch his breath. “Fuck, Caroline, we can’t do that yet,” he said slightly out of breath


    and pissed off. I sat up and took a deep breath before I looked at him slightly hurt.


    “Why?” I asked. He sighed at seeing my face before he sat on the bed next to me.


    “There’s a process and I want you to know everything first,” he said softly. Everything… about what?


    “Everything? Like what?” I asked him. He smirked at me.


    “Like the fact that I turn into a wolf,” he said, nudging my shoulder. My eyes widened in shock.


    “So… I wasn’t on drugs or dreaming?” I asked. Heughed and shook his head.


    “Nope,” he said popping the p. He leaned over and kissed me gently. “Get dressed, I’ll show you,” he


    said softly. I straddled hisp instead.


    “But I don’t want to get dressed,” I pouted. He groaned as I grinded my hips, rubbing my still wet


    womanhood along his bare shaft. He yelled like he was in pain as his face scrunched in need. I


    smirked slightly as my lips attached to his neck. “I… want… you,” I whispered in between kisses. He


    stood quickly and set me down on my feet.


    “Caroline… you have to know everything first,” he said sternly. I rolled my eyes before I picked up my


    bra and snapped it back on.


    “Fine,” I grumbled. He onlyughed. I felt his chest against my back as his arms slipped around me.


    His hands trailed along my scars and for once, all I felt was beautiful.


    “Also, everyone just heard what we did… sensitive werewolf hearing and all. If I took you now, the


    whole pack would hear you… even if they didn’t have hyper-senses,” he whispered huskily. My cheeks


    turned bright red as I felt my face heat up. Everyone in this house heard us: the guys, his mom, his


    dad, everyone. I spun out of his arms and pped his chest.


    “You knew they could hear us and you kept going?! Why would you even tell me that,” I screeched. He


    onlyughed.


    “Rx, the guys took my mom out for groceries before you got too loud. Well, my dad doesn’t really


    move from his bed so he could’ve heard everything. The walls down there are pretty thick for sound


    proofing but he’s an Alpha so…” Keegan trailed off.


    “Wait, Alpha? Isn’t that like… the president?” I asked. Keegan raised an eyebrow at me in amusement


    and nodded. I went to the bathroom and slipped on the maxi dress Keegan brought for me to change


    into. It was a simple ck tank maxi with a clinch waist and open back. I racked through my hair with


    my fingers before throwing it in a side ponytail.


    “The guys are back with my mom. Someone’s been doing their homework,” he noted. I shrugged.


    “I read a lot,” I answered. I looked around the bed for my underwear before I remembered that Keegan


    took them. He had his pants back on and was slipping on his shirt. “Keegan will you give me my


    underwear please?” I asked, holding out my hand. He started grinning like an idiot as he shook his


    head. I looked at him confused and shocked. I needed my underwear, I felt naked without them.


    “They’re mine,” Keegan said like a proud toddler before he walked towards the bathroom. I rolled my


    eyes and crossed my arms.


    “Keegan… underwear, now!” I ordered. His head peeked out the bathroom door as he smirked at me.


    “You wore a thong. That was sexy as hell,” he said instead, and then he was back in the bathroom.
