Book 1 of the Hunting Season serie
Crux
Moonlight flooded us, me and Silver. There was an icy silence in the forest. Huge trees surrounded us. The rustling of their leaves left whispered warnings in the warm breeze of the summer night. But we ignored all of that. We only cared about ourselves.
He was much taller than me, so I had to lift my head to look into his silver eyes. They were hypnotic, which was supposed to calm my racing heart, but instead it was just racing faster. Or maybe it was the closeness of his lips that put my heart into a chaotic rhythm. He took a step closer and I took a step back, but a tree stopped me from stepping back as far as I wanted.
Was I ready for this yet? Was I ready for the kiss that would change my whole life? I knew that after that kiss, I wouldn't be who I was now. Thatwewouldn't be the same anymore. That our relationship will change-
My otherwise so fit mind stopped at the immense extent of such a simple word.Change. It meant more to me now. Now that I got it.
Silver was suddenly closer. I hadn't seen his movement. He was just there. He could move so fast. My knees weakened and I was suddenly grateful for the support the tree provided on my back. He raised his arm and propped his forehead against the tree bark above my head as if he needed support too. But this movement only brought him closer to me. Suddenly I could feel the welcome heat of his body spread to mine. Under normal circumstances he would have hugged me to calm me down. But nothing about today was normal.
He was so beautiful in the moonlight, just indescribably attractive.
His thick hair, a mixture of colors, white, black, and silver with a little brown, hung down his shoulders. And I had a tremendous urgent need to touch it - to touch it. But I knew that any move like that would be a sign to him. For being ready. And I wasn't. I didn't want what he was offering me. Not this evening. Maybe never.
But what was I so afraid of? It was just a kiss. I had already kissed other guys. I had already kissed him, Silver.
So why did even the thought of kissing him tonight frighten me? The answer was simple: I knew the kiss brought us together - forever.
His fingers gently brushed my hair from my forehead. He had told me many times that the color reminded him of a fox. His thoughts were often about the forest.
Why was he so patient? Why didn't he push? Did he feel it too? Did he also understand how important it would be if-
He bowed his head, I stayed silent. I was hardly breathing.In all my reluctance, I secretly longed for it. I longed for it. But I still fought against it.
His lips almost touched mine. Nearly.
"Fee," he whispered temptingly, his warm breath brushing my cheek, "It's time."
Tears stole into my eyes. I shook my head, denying the truth in his words.
"I'm not ready."
Suddenly there was a threatening, harsh growl in the distance.
He stiffened. A sign that he too had heard. He pushed away from me and looked over his shoulder. Now I saw them: a dozen wolves roaming restlessly around the circle of the forest clearing. Silver looked at me again. Disappointment showed in his silver eyes. "Then choose someone else. But you can't go through it alone."
Then he turned away from me and went to meet the wolves.
"Wait! ". I called after him.
But it was already too late.
He began to take off his clothes with each faster step. Until he ran. Finally he jumped in the air
When he touched the ground again, he was a wolf. He was just as beautiful in wolf form as he was human. He threw back his head and howled at the moon.
The harbinger of change, the bringer of fate. The excruciating sound echoed through me and I struggled to answer. The wilderness that had prepared itself in me was so strong.
I started running to him ...
It was hard to imagine that it had only been two weeks since I had just laughed and cracked jokes at the idea of ​​werewolves and their existence.
And now I, Fee Young, became one myself.
