Chapter 286: Meg And Kai (1)

In the packhouse…

Meg followed Kai into his room. He gestured toward the sofa, and she understood that she should sit there.

Meg thought that Kai will join her, but he raised his index finger, indicating to her to wait before dashing into the bathroom.

A second later, Meg heard the water running in the sink and she wondered what Kai was doing. She didn't see that he was dirty in any way, but then… maybe she missed it.

Kai was splashing cold water on his face in an attempt to compose himself.

While they walked, Kai was leading the way, maintaining a slight distance so that he is in front, not because he wanted to silently show who among the two of them will be in charge, but because he didn't want Meg to see his hard-on stretching his shorts. The arousal was maddening.

From a young age, every member of the Midnight Guardians pack learns meditation and various breathing techniques in order to control their lustful nature, and Kai was one of the best in managing his urges.

All those years of practice went down the drain from the moment he picked up the delicious scent of honey and connected it with the dark-haired beauty that was the owner of ravishing lips and big brown eyes. Meg was wearing a dress that didn't conceal her toned body with curves in all the right places, and when they touched, the sparks of their bond sent electric pulses straight into his groin area, and the only thing on Kai's mind was to eat up the exotic beauty that was holding his hand.

However, before he gives in to his instincts, they needed to talk. He can't just pounce on Meg like a horny teenager.

He waited for this moment twenty-one years, three months, and seven days (yeah, he was counting), so he should be able to hold back for a bit more.

Kai focused mightily on the task at hand, but the fact that Meg's image flashed in front of his closed eyes didn't help.

What did the Elders say? There are rules he needs to follow in case his mate is not from the Midnight Guardians pack. He needs to clarify a few things in order to avoid potential misunderstandings in the future.

Should he kiss her first? For how long? With or without the tongue? What about fondling? Yes, yes… fondling is important to set the mood.

No! They need to talk first.

Who can focus on talking? Meg was right there, on the sofa, waiting, and she wouldn't come with him if she was not willing.

What was he supposed to say?

Maybe he can touch her a little. He really wanted to arrange kisses all over her body and to explore her thoroughly. Will she allow him to do that?

Kai raised his arm and sniffed under his armpit. He showered after training, but what if that was not enough? He didn't want Meg to think of him as a stinky guy. Hygiene is important!

Kai knew that they need to talk about important matters, but all his blood pooled into his groin area and the arousal was rendering him unable to think. Ah, this will be a disaster!

'Get a grip, Kai!', he encouraged himself while splashing more cold water on his face.

In the bedroom...

Meg had no idea that her trip to the Dark Howlers pack will take this turn.

She came here on Tony's request to train.

Tony mentioned that he wants Meg to be his Beta, but Meg was not sure about it. It's not that Meg would shy from responsibilities; her grandfather was a Beta, and he would be super-proud to know that she will follow in his footsteps, and she was genuinely flattered by the offer, but Meg grew up in the Lightclaw pack and she knew that females don't hold important positions. And this was not just because of Alpha Magnus; other high-ranking members and Elders were of the same belief.

Meg didn't think it will work out the way Tony thought. 

However, Tony asked her to come and give her best, and he promised that they will deal with any challenges as they come, so she agreed for the sake of their friendship even though she knew that Tony never stood up to his father.

She was confident that this story will end with Paul being Tony's Beta because Paul's father is the current Beta, but Meg didn't want to go into that discussion with Tony. She didn't have the right to meddle in the high-ranking structure of the Lightclaw pack.

Meg decided to treat this as a vacation, a unique opportunity to come to the Dark Howlers pack and stay in the packhouse, like she was someone important. That's why she didn't care much about training, and she was delighted when Talia invited her to go shopping with the girls. Meg really had fun. And then… she found her mate! This vacation-thing was getting better by the minute!

Meg closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Everything smelled of peaches, just like Kai. When he looked at her, Meg could see her reflection in his dark eyes, and she was ready to stay there forever.

Kai was taller than Meg by half a head, handsome, and confidence oozed from him. He was the mate from her dreams and Meg couldn't wait for the rest of her life with him.

...

Meg jolted at the sound of Kai clearing his throat and she wondered why his hair was wet. Surely, the sound of water came from the sink. Did he put his head in there?

Now that Kai was standing there and not moving, Meg got a chance to take a good look at Kai's impressive physique that was not hidden with his t-shirt and shorts, and she really wanted to put her hands under that fabric and explore the landscape his muscles are forming.

That delicious-looking hunk was her mate, hers and hers only, from now until forever.

Meg swallowed hard at the sight of Kai's dark eyes directed at her. His damp hair was slightly messy with a few strands falling over his forehead, making him devilishly handsome and Meg pressed her legs together, suddenly aware of her appearance.

Was her dress too casual? If she knew that she will meet her mate, Meg would put some makeup on and fix her hair. What if he doesn't approve?

Kai stood at the door of the bathroom with hands in the pockets of his shorts and stared at Meg as possessed. She was beyond beautiful. His hands down there had the role of concealing his hard-on and he hoped that Meg didn't notice. She was observing him intently and he never saw a woman more alluring in his life. Everything about her was amazing.

Meg was not sure what to expect. She came to Kai's room with privacy on her mind, and she thought that they will explode into kissing, caressing, and wild lovemaking and this… just what was this?

Was he waiting for her to make a move? Probably.

Meg moved to the side of the sofa and patted the spot next to her. "Will you join me here?"

Without a word, Kai walked to her stiffly and only after he sat, he got his hands out of his pockets.

Meg really wanted to feel the addictive sparks again and she reached to hold his hand.

"We should talk.", Kai said while jerking his hand away.

Meg had no problems with that. "Sure. What do you want to talk about?"

She ignored Kai's weak attempt to avoid her hand and he closed his eyes when their hands touched.

Meg noticed that he was stiff. "Is this bothering you?" She was talking about their hands.

He wanted to hold much more than just her hand. "It's difficult to focus."

Meg smiled. "I know. But it feels good. Right?"

It felt amazing, and that's why it was difficult to focus, but he couldn't make himself to pry his hand out of her hold. Ah, this will be difficult!
