A/N: Thanks to everyone who's keeping up with this, even though my internet issues are making it difficult for me to post. I really appreciate it and I'm glad people are still enjoying this.
Chris circled his opponent, keeping his eyes on the person in front of him. He was slightly out of breath and sweating, but Chris knew better then to think he was going to get an easy win.
They locked up again, each one trying to get the upper hand. They broke off, backing up when neither one could get the advantage.
Chris snarled, his fangs gleaming in the light as he rushed Adam, trying to get him stumble backwards. Adam held still, bracing himself and absorbing Chris weight without moving. Grabbing Chris by the neck, Adam picked him up and swung him at one of the trees that surrounded them.
But Chris wiggled out and slipped behind Adam, pushing him and sending him face first into the tree. Adam grunted, spinning around to face the smaller vampire, his glowing eyes meeting Chris's black ones.
Adam growled as they circled each other again, neither one of them willing to concede defeat.
Alex watched them, leaning against a tree a few yards away. Bruises and cuts dotted his upper body, already healing, from his own bout against Jay.
He felt better then he had even a few hours ago; his brawl with Jay had lasted almost an hour and had taken both of them to near exhaustion -or as close to exhaustion as a vampire and a werewolf could get.
Jay had won, barely. Alex had known Jay would win; just like Chris knew eventually Adam would win. Adam was ranked higher then Chris and they never forgot that, no matter what they were doing.
But this wasn't about the winning, it was about the fight that led up to it. They needed a fight that would take every piece of aggressiveness they had and used it up, and kept going until they were barely able to move. No matter how bloody or messy it got, until they were both satisfied.
Chris and Adam had been fighting for almost two hours by the time he and Jay had gotten done and came to watch. Alex could feel his adrenaline start pumping again as Chris went after Adam again. He shifted his feet, his eyes following Chris's every move. A few feet away he could smell Jay's own excitement start kicking in.
By the time Adam actually got Chris pinned to the ground, Alex was insanely turned on. His fangs were fully extended, his eyes were pitch black and he had a hard on he could've cut glass with.
Chris got up from the ground and zeroed in on Alex right away. Striding away from Adam, he grabbed Alex's wrist and dragged him far enough away that the wolves wouldn't be able to hear them, and then immediately backed Alex into a tree.
Fuck, 'Lex, Chris snarled, attacking his mouth; his own fangs leaving marks on Alex's tongue. Pulling back, he bit Ale's lip, the scent of his blood almost as intoxicating as the sight of him hard and straining against his jeans. I could almost hear you getting turned on. How the fuck am I supposed to resist that?
Alex moaned, his hands scratching at Chris's back, some of them going deep enough to draw blood. He bit Chris's shoulder, unable to stop himself when his mate was so close.
I don't want you to, Alex hissed, lapping at the blood that was on Chris's shoulder. He whimpered when Chris wrapped a hand in his hair and yanked his head back, baring his neck and letting him look into his mate's eyes.
That'll never happen, 'Lex, Chris swore, the sight of blood -his blood- smeared on his mate's mouth sending a shudder through his body. I would die the true death before I would ever be able to resist you.
He leaned down and gave Alex a brief, tender kiss that was completely at odds with the fire raging through his system. I will always love you. Always. You're mine and nothing will ever change that. Understand?
Without waiting for an answer, he dipped his head and bit Alex's neck as hard as he could. Alex moaned, his hips bucking against Chris's. Chris moved back a couple inches, licking the blood from Alex's neck before he tore Alex's pants off.
Stepping back, Chris looked Alex over while he stripped out of his own pants. Smirking, he pressed his body against his mates, kissing Alex again before he hitched Alex's legs around his waist.
Please, Chris, Alex begged, clawing at his shoulders. Fuck me.
Chris snarled again, his mouth latching on to Alex's neck as he thrusted into him. Alex groaned wildly, his eyes closing. Neither one of them were going to last long, but that didn't matter. All that mattered was getting as close to each other as possible.
When Chris felt Alex start to tighten around him, he lifted his head and licking his lips, made sure his shoulder was close enough so that Alex could reach it when he came. Whimpering, Alex bit Chris, hard enough that Chris grunted and thrust into Alex even harder then he already was.
Once he was done, he let go, his head dropping back against the tree behind them. Chris moved, pulling Alex onto the ground and covering him.
You're mine. Mine. Until we both surrender to the true death or the fucken sky falls down. Understand? Chris demanded, biting the other side of Alex's neck, moaning as he got off.
Yes, Alex said, unable to even lift his head. And you're mine.
It seemed fair enough to Chris so he just smiled and gave Alex another quick kiss.
Randy eyed the young wolves standing in front of him speculatively. They weren't lying, but there was still something off about it.
“Why do you want to go to Virginia again?” Randy asked, resting his hand on Justin's lower back when he came outside to sit next to him on the front porch.
“We just want to roam a little,” Max explained after him and his brother had greeted their alpha's mate. “I wanna stretch my legs a little and Jeremy wanted to come with me.”
Jeremy nodded in agreement when Randy looked at him. “I want to see something besides here before I'm mated.”
Randy nodded thoughtfully; it was common enough for wolves to want to run before they settled down. “Alright, you have my permission. Once you're in Virginia, make sure you contact Hunter and let him know you're just roaming,” Randy instructed, looking serious. “Hunter's a good Alpha, but he tends to attack first and ask questions after the fact.”
They both nodded before saying goodbye and Changing. They loped off towards the woods, but Randy had a feeling that this was going to be more trouble then it seemed.
