Chapter 122
His hands roam over my curves, tracing circles on my hips before sliding upwards along my sides and finally cupping my breasts - sending shockwaves of pleasure through every nerve ending in my body. His thumbs circle around the hard nubs of my nipples, teasing them mercilessly as I moan into the kiss while arching into him, wanting more than anything else for him to touch me deeper still while also needing this moment to last forever because it feels so good
"We shouldn't, at least not here," Zayn breathes out against my lips, his hands still roaming over my body
I know he's right. Anyone could stumble upon
us, and we wouldn't be able to explain ourselves. But in this moment, I can barely think
straight as the heat between us continues to build
"Come on," he says, pulling away from me and taking a step back. "I'll take you home; my car isn't far from here."
I nod, my heart still pounding with desire as I try to gather myself and follow him. He leads me into the treeline before stopping and tugging me closer, a wicked smile on his lips as he suddenly addresses my wolf
"Try to keep up Luna," he purrs, letting me go and shifting. His huge black wolf takes his place and I feel Luna's giddiness at wanting to race and I feel her pressing forward, wanting controlText property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
I give it to her, letting her forward and preparing for the agony, yet barely any comes when I give
her control. It's almost too easy as I surrender to the shift, letting my body contort and twist, giving her the reins. Zarek takes off into the trees, and Luna yaps excitedly, darting after him
The forest becomes a blur as we run, adrenaline pumping through our veins as we dodge tree after tree effortlessly. The cool night air feels refreshing against our fur, and the scents of the forest invigorate us. I could sense Zarek's powerful presence just ahead of us, and Luna's instincts urge her to catch up to him, to run with him side by side. The full moon above us casts an ethereal glow over the forest floor, illuminating the path before us while hiding secrets in its shadows
We race through the trees for what feels like hours, our bodies moving with grace and fluidity as one. Luna revels in the feeling of
freedom and power that comes with running in her wolf form, her senses heightened and sharpened. In this form, she is wild and fierce, unencumbered by human thoughts or worries
But as we near Zayn's car, I feel Luna's excitement turn into hesitation. She knows that this is Where we must shift back into human form and face reality once more. And a part of me dreads it too - because once we're back in our human forms, everything will become too real again, but at the same time, I am excited because I get Zayn
As if sensing my unease, Zarek slows down and allows me to catch up to him. He shifts back into his human form first, Zayn smiles encouragingly, and Luna reluctantly shifts back
I can feel Luna's presence fading as we shift back into our human form, fur replaced by the
familiar sensation of my own body. I open my eyes and find myself standing in front of Zayn, his warm silver eyes gazing down at me with a mixture of desire and concern. I can see the moonlight reflecting off his dark hair, giving it a silver sheen
"Hey," he whispers, his voice husky with emotion
"Hey," I reply, unable to hide the smile that spreads across my face
Zayn looks over my shoulder and nods towards the car. "Let's get dressed before we freeze out here." I nod, suddenly aware of the cold night air against my bare skin
The car was parked just where Zayn said it would be - at a clearing near an old iron bridge stretching over a babbling creek that reflected
the silver light from above onto its surface like shimmering mirrors underfoot
Zayn grabs his keys off the back wheel, unlocks the car, walks towards the trunk, and opens it, pulling out a shirt for me, holding it out for me to take. But before I can reach for it, his hands are on me again - this time tracing up and down my arms in a comforting gesture
"You okay?" he asks softly

I nod, grateful for his understanding. "Yeah, just feeling a little exposed."
He smiles sympathetically and steps closer to me, draping the shirt over my shoulders and helping me put it on. His touch is gentle yet possessive at the same time—like he wants to make sure that I'm okay but also wants to re- mark me as his. And in that moment,
surrounded by moonlight and the sounds of nature all around us, I feel completely content
Zayn grabs himself a pair of jeans and pulls them on
Once we're both dressed, Zayn closes the trunk and leads me to the passenger side of the car. He opens the door and gestures for me to get in while he goes around to the driver's side. As soon as we're both inside, he starts up the engine and we start driving back towards the city
"Let's get you home," he growls, his wolf still close to the surface
As we drive back, I leaned against the door, the coolness of the leather soothing my heated skin but also preventing me from trying to climb into his lap while he drove. Zayn's eyes flickered over to me, his silver orbs smoldering in the dim
light of the dashboard. It was as if he knew exactly what I was thinking, and my heart rate had yet to return to normal after our earlier run
