Two Weeks After
Selene and Blake are in their room ready for bed. Selene has been irritated all day. She has been followed everywhere by bodyguards Blake has appointed to take care of her. She crosses her hands, sitting on the edge of the bed while Blake makes his. way out of the shower.
He comes out of the restroom with a towel around his waist. And she can't deny, even when she's mad at him, she adores the sight of her husband's naked body. She gulps down and sighs, acting as if she is still annoyed by him.
He sighs, closing his eyes and nodding his head with a smile. "Sweetheart, just how long do you plan on being upset with me? I'm doing this for your own good." He says while stopping in front of her. She can see the water droplets sliding down his chest, and her face becomes heated with embarrassment.
He chuckles noticing her stare at him. "I just don't like being followed around like if I'm a little pup, who can't take care of herself. " she lowers her head trying to avoid seeing how. close he is standing, wearing nothing but a thin towel around his waist.
He holds his arm out and grips her tight pulling her to her feet. His hands slowly wrap around her. Gripping her tight with one hand and tilting her chin slightly with his other.
"I would never forgive myself if anything happened to you, Selene. I love you, and I just want to protect you." He whispers, his lips grazed slowly over hers, sending waves over her entire body.
Her hands wrap around his neck as she leans in closer, closing the gap between the two. The thin fabric of her nightgown helps less the feel of his skin on hers. Her body covers in goosebumps. "Tell me? what can I do to make my wife less mad at me?" He whispers, tracing his lips over her neck.
She smiles at his requests, she knows exactly what she wants. "Hmm, I can ask for anything?" She raises an eyebrow, with a mischievous smile.on her face.
"Yes, just, don't make me regret asking you this!" He chuckles, wrapping his arm tighter around her. She squints her eye, tilting her head to the side pensively. "Hmmm,.... let me think? I'm good at fighting, and you know that. I want to train, I want to be able to fight by your side, to protect our pack, together." She says, his eyes growing saddened.
"Anything but that Selene." He whispers. Averting his eyes away from her.
"Blake, look at me? You know I'm good. Better than any female in our pack maybe? But what if we go under attack? How will you protect me and the pack all at once? You have great warriors, but I was appointed as the lead warrior, I need to stand my ground and claim my position in this pack. Please baby, let me train?" He sighs, closing his eyes.
"Fine, but only under my supervision, Understood?"
Her smile grows wide and she throws herself over him, hugging him tight, as she buries her face in his neck.
"Yes, thank you!" he giggles at her expression.
"When do we start?" She asks
"How about tomorrow?"
