The night was still young, as Roxanne called everyone back to the dance floor and they all danced together excitedly.
Finally, after they had had their fill of the dance, they stopped. Roxanne and Asher looked above them and gazed upon the moon. They could feel the urge coming from within them and they just had to let it out.
In most Christmas celebrations, what people heard were carols and jingles of bells. However, when one had Christmas with the wolves… Things were a little different.
“Awoooooooo!!!!!” Asher gave the first howl.
“Awooooooooo!!!!” Roxanne followed.
Everyone let out theirs as well.
“Awooooooo!!!” They all brought forth.
The sounds of the joint howls made by these werewolves underneath the moonlight made the best music, exceeding even the best of carols.
All the werewolves closed their eyes as they continued this symphony, except Asher and Roxanne. Standing in the middle of the large circle of the pack, they stared at each other. They had stopped their howls, even though the rest continued.
Their eyes met passionately, and they instinctively knew what came next. Drawing their lips closer, they merged in one mutual consensus, drowning in each other's desires. They kept kissing, tongue meeting the other as their lips smacked together. Saliva drew from their mouth as they kept this pleasant union going, crossing themselves and indulging in their satisfaction.
After they did this, the howls continued.
Asher looked into Roxanne's eyes and for the first time since he met her, went on his knees. The wolves had their eyes closed, so they couldn’t see a thing. Their howls filled the air, so they couldn't hear any other voice. It was only Roxanne and Asher that we’re aware of this occurrence.
"Roxanne… Will you be mine, now and forever? Bond with me… I love you,``he confessed.
Tears formed in her eyes as she looked at him. He held her hand and caressed it, not for a second removing his eyes off of her. His sincere eyes expected an answer from her, and she already knew it within her, what she would say.
“Asher…. I…” She began.
“Awoooooooo” The howls filled the air as she spoke.
“I can’t give you the answer now…”
Asher's eyes fell as he heard this. His heart ached, he didn’t know what to say… He was in pain, but he endured, he still looked at her, perhaps expecting a different answer.
“Tomorrow… I promise you… Tomorrow, I’ll give you the answer!” She declared to him.
She used her hands to raise him back to his feet and her smile showed that she indeed loved him, he could tell… All he needed to do was wait for the next day.
"Alright, Roxanne… I'll be expecting it" He smiled.
She returned his smile too.
The howls ceased and for a moment there was silence. They all just took deep breaths and felt the cold breeze surround them. After this brief period, the wolves finally resumed their dance and music and ate and partied.
