"Not this time."
Nate frowned as Eliot put his foot down, shutting down the argument and turning his back.
"Tell me why," Nate called after him. "You've let me come with you every month since we've been together. Why not now?"
"The Wolf's moon." Eliot declared, and left before Nate could ask any more questions.
Nate didn't pry. He let it lay for the three days Eliot was gone. Didn't go seeking out the information. Eliot was their source for all things wolf, he didn't have anyone else to ask, but he could have found someone. He didn't.
When Eliot came home, limping and bruised unlike anything Nate had seen after a full moon, he didn't demand answers, just helped him patch himself up and helped him to bed. Eliot slept like he hadn't seen a bed in the last seventy two hours.
It wasn't until the next night that Eliot turned to him with guilt darkened eyes. "The Wolf's moon is the only time we can't control the wolf," he told him, curling in on himself. "There's an alpha... a powerful wolf that hunts near me. Most of the time we keep apart, don't get in each other's way. Every Wolf's moon we end up together. I never mean it, Nate. Neither of us want it. It doesn't mean anything. It's just warmth and protection."
"Your wolf has a soul mate?" Nate asked blandly, trying to sort through the maelstrom in his mind.
Eliot growled, and the sound was painful. "The wolf doesn't control me, Nate. I'm with *you*."
"Except for three nights of the year?" Nate asked, and it was cold. Eliot couldn't help what he was.
"Just three nights." Eliot enforced.
"Then I better stake my claim before next year." Nate declared, and pushed Eliot back down into the bed.
