Chapter 316 A Long Night
When Ashleigh had reached the gates that lead to the forest, she shifted into her wolf immediately.
“Cheater!” Caleb called after her with a hearty laugh.
But then he just stood and watched her run.
He watched the same white wolf he had seen when he was just a child. The one that terrified him, and yet he had felt such a strong pull to help.
She was beautiful.
He walked out into the night and shifted in his wolf. Running toward her, she was already nearing the base of their home away from home.
Caleb howled into the sky, and she paused, turning to look at him.
He howled once more, and she howled in reply.
His heart fluttered, and he ran in another direction into the trees, knowing that she was chasing after him now.
He ran fast and hard, he dove over and under fallen branches, through the bushes, he hid and looked around from time to time. Seeing a flash of white every once in a while.
They kept up their game for an hour, perhaps two.
Caleb looked around the trees but saw nothing. Finally, he turned, and there she was. The great white wolf of his dreams. Her hazel eyes stared at him with victory..
She raised her head and howled into the sky.
Caleb bowed before her and replied to her howl.
The two great wolves padded softly back to the treehouse together.
Ashleigh shifted first. She climbed up the ladder, Caleb following just after.
As he reached the top of the ladder, Ashleigh turned and laughed.
“Is that why you wanted me ‘all to yourself\'?” she laughed as he closed the hatch and engaged the lock. “To run through the trees and–”
Her words were cut off as Caleb stood and wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her tightly against him while his other hand tangled into her hair and held her as he locked them into a passionate embrace.
Ashleigh felt the rush of warmth that spread over her body.
She relaxed and wrapped her own arms around him.
He gripped her hair with a gentle tug. She gasped in surprise at the sensation, and he took the opportunity to deepen their kiss.
Ashleigh pulled away as the need for oxygen became apparent. She stared into his eyes, filled with love and lust blending together in a reflection of her own desire.
She stepped back from him, pulling her shirt off in a slow but swift movement.
Caleb let his eyes roam over her full breasts.
She wore a burgundy and black lace bra, something he had never seen on her before.
“Is that new?” he asked with a curve of his lips and a hungry growl at the end of his words.
Ashleigh smiled.
“I heard you were coming back tonight,” she said sweetly. “I wanted to dress for the occasion.”
Caleb grinned and moved toward her, she backed away in the direction of their bed with a playful smile on her face.
“Do I need to catch you again?” he asked.
“You never caught me the first time.” She winked.
With a smug grin, he pulled off his shirt. Ashleigh licked her lips and smiled in appreciation of the view.
He growled and jumped at her, but Ashleigh was able to step just out of reach. She let out a giggle and then ran. However, he caught her by the waist just before she managed to jump onto the bed.
His hands firmly on her hips, he pulled her back against him. Ashleigh gasped as her back pressed to his bare chest, and her ass pushed against the thick bulge in his pants.
Caleb bent his head forward and nuzzled against her, pressing his nose to the crook of her neck, he breathed her in. This was the moment he always looked forward to.
Taking her in, letting her scent wash over him and fill him with the warring sense of comfort and desire she elicited in him. Part of him just wanted to lay down and hold her in his arms as they found comfort in their warmth.
But the other part of him longed to see her panting and calling his name as he thrust himself harder and deeper inside of her.
The thought made him draw a deep breath through his nose and nip lightly at her throat as he moved his hips to rub himself against her.
Ashleigh let out a soft gasp and moan.
Caleb smiled against her throat.
He hooked his thumb into the waistband of her pants and moved his hand away from her hip toward the center of her body. His fingers skillfully unhooked the button and lowered the zipper.
Ashleigh licked her lips and leaned her head back against him as the warmth of his hand rested on her abdomen, his finger lightly tracing over the lace of her panties.
“What about these?” his hot breath whispered against her throat. “Do they match? Did you pick these out just for the occasion as well?”
Ashleigh let out a shuddering breath as his hand moved down, his fingers gently touching and tracing a line down to her opening over the thin fabric.
“Yes…” she whispered.
“Oh…” Caleb smiled with surprise as the lace under his fingers suddenly ended, and he felt the heat coming off of her. “It looks like you really went all out to greet me…”
He had never expected Ashleigh to be bold enough to wear crotchless panties. He moved his hand forward, applying gentle pressure she began to rock naturally against his hand.
She moaned and leaned back against him. Caleb ran his tongue along her throat, kissing her and nipping her as his finger dipped into her creamy folds.
Ashleigh gasped and bit her lip at the jolt of pleasure that shot through her. Caleb pulled his hand away just enough to introduce a second finger.
Ashleigh let out soft pants and moaned as he moved his fingers in and out, probing her in a way that was building an intense pressure inside her belly. She rocked her body against his hand, wishing for him to move faster, deeper. As though he read her mind, he did exactly as she wanted.
Ashleigh turned her head and kissed him fiercely.
Caleb pulled his hand away, drawing sounds of protest from Ashleigh. He smiled and kissed her tenderly.
“Patience,” he whispered.
His hands moved back up to her hips. Then, hooking both his thumbs into her pants, he moved them down over the curve of her firm bottom and let them fall, so they bunched at her knees.
He removed the restraint of his own pants and boxers. Caleb wrapped his hand, wet with her juices, around his thick shaft. He lined himself up and slowly moved so that he rubbed against her sensitive slit with each movement.
Ashleigh moaned, and Caleb joined her as he felt the warmth of her juices sliding over him. The pleasure she was feeling poured into through their bond. He couldn\'t hold back anymore.
“Brace yourself on the bed,” he whispered.
Ashleigh didn\'t question or reply, she did exactly as he asked, bending forward with elbows and forearms supporting the weight of her body on the bed. Her tight ass pointed up at him.
Caleb let out a low hungry growl as this position, combined with the crotchless panties, provided him a view that made him ache.
They weren\'t new to the act. They had been enjoying each other\'s bodies since they were married, multiple times a day. However, the almost full week he had spent in Burning Ember was the longest they had gone without being intimate since their wedding.
He once more lined himself up with her, pushing the tip of his cock inside her warmth. She let out a gasping moan that made it almost impossible for him not to just plunge himself into her.
He clenched his jaw and took a deep breath as he slowly began to move.
The tightness with which her body greeted him was still almost too much for either of them to handle.
Ashleigh gripped the blankets under her, she took short quick breaths as she felt him spreading her insides. A pain that was filled to the brim with indescribable pleasure, all she wanted was to be filled up by him.
Caleb felt her need for him and the desire for him to take her wholly.
Letting out a shaky breath, he plunged into her. She cried out and without knowing it, she moved her hips to meet his as he pounded into her, pushing himself further and further inside of her.
Ashleigh\'s mind was reeling from how much she enjoyed his thrusts, how much she craved more and more. She needed him. He needed her.
Tonight was going to be a long night, and neither of them could wait.
