Chapter0125
Last night when Rik dropped me off after professing his love for me, I thought I’d have a really hard time getting to sleep. I had worried when he’d mentioned his room needing to be big enough for his Luna. It had reminded me that it might not be me. And it made my heart hurt to think of another woman in his room, smelling his delicious scent, having him to herself. But when he told me he loved me, it made me think, maybe all these feelings that I’m having, that Artemis is having, are because WE are his mate. The thought had me falling asleep with a contented smile on my face.
I wake on Sunday feeling refreshed. Turns out, sleeping in Rik’s hoodie and having his scent surrounding me, helped me get the best sleep I’ve had in a long time. Artemis is feeling stronger as well and is ready to shift. Rik agreed to come with us and wait while I shifted in case it takes longer than normal or is painful. Dad has me swim laps today. While that doesn’t sound difficult, two hours of back and forth in the pool has my muscles screaming. After a hot shower and breakfast, I’m ready to let Artemis out.
I walk out back headed to the forest, just as I see Rik jogging up. “Hey beautiful.‘ He jogs right up to me and kisses me good morning. I don’t hesitate. I wrap my arms around him and lean into the kiss, running my fingers through his hair. My body tingles all over from the contact and I feel him getting hard before he pulls
away.
“Little Guardian, unless you want me pleasuring you until you are screaming my name right here, we’d better stop. “I smile at him and step away. As tempting as it is and even if I was ready for that, Artemis would never wait that long. She was ready to run with Kai.
However, that didn’t mean that I couldn’t tease Rik a little before we shifted. I’d have to be naked in front of him anyway to shift. And it’s not like shifters aren’t used to nudity, it’s common to see others when they are shifting. But this feels different. I know Rik is attracted to me, and his body is already responding to me just from a kiss. So, yeah, this will be a tease.
Rather than going behind a tree, I lift my sweatshirt over my head. I wasn’t wearing a bra since I knew I’d be shifting. His swift intake of breath is enough for me to know that my plan is working. Before he can see my wicked smile, I turn and bend at the waist, slowly sliding my yoga pants to my ankles. I might take an extra minute to step out of them when I hear a growl rumble in his chest.
I yelp when he comes up behind me, pulling my hips against his now very hard

length. His voice is rough and raspy when he says, “Feeling playful little guardian?”
I turn my head, looking at his sapphire eyes, dark with Kai’s presence. Artemis has already pushed forward, enjoying our game. “Maybe.”
His hands slide up my waist, across my stomach and up to my breasts. He takes one in each hand, tugging on my nipples that have already gone to hard peaks.
I gasp and lean back against him, feeling the zings of pleasure pulsing straight to my core, my arousal pooling between my legs. He nips at my shoulder before releasing me, pulling back and smacking my ass, hard. “Last warning little guardian. Keep it up and I’ll have you on this forest floor screaming my name for everyone to hear.”
I step away from him, unsteady on my feet, before nodding. Damn this man and his ability to turn me to a pool of sloppy desire.
I crouch down, preparing for Artemis to shift. As Artemis starts to push forward, I see Rik stripping from the corner of my eye. But I’m too focused on the pain. It’s harder than it should be to shift. I grit my teeth against the pain.
‘Relax, let it come. We know how to do this, I’ll be as fast as I can.‘ Artemis says. I try to relax, but I can feel each bone breaking and rearranging. I’m about to cry out when I feel fur sliding against my body. Kai has shifted and he’s here, giving me support while Artemis shifts. Just like when I was in the hospital, wherever he touches me, the pain vanishes. My panting slows and I relax enough to let Artemis finish her shift.
