That intrigued me. I wasn't quite sure what she was getting at. "What do you mean?"

Scarlett immediately said. "Wet dreams. We all preferred when Jayden slinked into the kitchen, wanting to eat a pound of bacon as a wolf over the mountain of laundry."

Oh. Those were two images that I didn't exactly need, but I loved the mom factor to them. Laundry was the pits, and if you enjoyed cooking, making a bunch of bacon for a wolf seemed like a better option.

"So it's all somewhat normal."

"Yup. Unfortunately, they shift when they get super stressed. Doesn't matter if they are conscious or not. But don't stress out when it happens. Aside from a recent night terror, how's your mating going?"

I hated the question about mating.

At least Eoghan didn't seem to be as stressed about it anymore. Apparently, after being seen around Minneapolis, everyone thought we were close enough to being mated that things were okay.

I just didn't know how to answer the question. It was not as easy as just being able to say yes or no. The sex and connection with Eoghan was amazing, but there was some sort of indescribable block between us. But I wasn't ready to admit that block to everyone. So, I played it safe and told her the truth.

"It's going okay. I love him with all my soul. Although I don’t know. I think something changed. . ."

After hearing the buzzing sound of the electronic lock unlocking, Eoghan was home. My stomach did a minor backflip, ready to test that connection between me and him.

"Thanks Scarlett. Eoghan just got home."

There was another soft giggle from Scarlett. "Go enjoy your mate. They're truly special."

Chapter 38

Emmy

Fullmoonsweren'tmyfavorite time of the month since I'd learned the hard way that Eoghan got so testy. But he was only pissy when he was human. The moment the sun set, he was just a big overgrown puppy. Well, sweet and loyal like one. He wasn't destructive or as energetic as a puppy. Instead, he mostly just paced around the house.

Something felt different about last night's full moon.

I just got used to it and looked forward to the morning after, since Eoghan was more loving and passionate after each full moon. As if he hated making me scared.

The moment I felt the bed dip down, I turned with a smile.

He straddled me and pinned me down on the bed. His smile was wide, ready to eat me out. "Morning, my love. Did you sleep well?"

He adjusted my arms so that he could use one hand to pin my arms and then the other pushed open the snaps to my PJ top, revealing my breasts. I should have known since he was such a breast man.

"Yes, my big bad wolf. How about you?"

It was the first time that I'd ever called him that, but it felt right. While he wasn't bad, he was a big wolf when you saw him in that form.

After he shifted in his sleep and continued to have his nightmare without doing anything more than some whining, I realized that I was completely safe around his wolf. I loved and cared for him even as a wolf. I wanted to spend my whole life with him. He was mine, no matter the form.

His tongue lapped across my areola and after he teased me long enough, he lifted his head up. His eyes were feral, but at the same time, full of love. "I'm going to sleep so much better after I have my way with you."

This was when I hated his summer schedule. Sure, he would go to the gym and hang out with his teammates, but he could sleep in. But knowing him, he didn't even try to go to sleep tonight until he had his way with me.

Eoghan's lips worked their way down my body to the waistline of my PJ shorts. "Time to get rid of these."

He shifted his legs to pull the shorts off of me. He also pushed his sweatpants and boxers down.

I wanted him to eat me out. One of the other perks of the full moon, his five o'clock shadow was thicker and longer than normal, ideal for a beard ride. Thankfully, he didn't make me wait too long.

His stubble tickled as his tongue worked his magic. He teased me to the edge of an orgasm but then withdrew, causing me to moan as I said, "Stop teasing me."

He straddled me again, but instead of touching my body, he reached for his nightstand. With one hand, he grabbed the lube, condoms, and a very pink vibrator. I was surprised since we didn't usually use toys.
