She continued, “They have become my family but… my wolf… not having a wolf was a huge missing piece inside me... and… you. I’ve missed you so much.” I’d missed her more than I could express. I couldn’t imagine thinking I didn’t get a wolf. I’d had Oden with me my entire life.

I held her giving assurances, “I’m not going anywhere.

You have me now. I’m sorry it took so long for us to meet.

I’ve been fighting my instincts about popping down to Nashville to meet you in person.

I was trying to respect your wishes. I was really worried about you last year.

If those in Black Path know what’s good for them, they will stay away from you. ”

She sighed, “Can… I…? You… well... I mean… about marking me….” I raised an eyebrow. Oden howled in delight. Melanie continued, “I want that…. like more than I can express… but... like… we need to wait… until we can talk… about everything… then you... umm can decide…. what you want to do.”

Oden grumbled, “I do not need any details. She’s ours.” I replied, “I know that. Nothing, literally nothing, even her being a serial killer, could change that.” He snorted, “She’s not.” I huffed, “It was an example. I know she’s not.”

I told her, “I’ll mark you whenever you’re ready. If we are waiting until we have some big talk, that’s fine. I might have to bite a pillow at times though.” I winked at her. She buried her hands in her face. I laughed, “We can take our time with all that because we have it.”

She whispered, “I want to… I’ve just… I mean… I haven’t…. and you’re… like wow… and well… like you know what you’re doing with stuff.” Oden purred, “She’s so cute. She said stuff instead of sex.” I caught that.

I slid my hand on her neck and kissed her lips again. I pulled back, “I’ve never done this before either. I was waiting for you. I did get drunk at my birthday party one year and a girl kissed me…” She growled and I couldn’t help but smile. It was an adorable growl.

I continued, “I pushed her off the second I could without hurting her and walked away. That’s all I’ve done.” Her eyes widened. She gasped, “That’s it? I mean... you... but… like… LOOK at you! Plus… well… You said… but… they….”

I laughed, “Clearly you do not own a mirror. My Lovebug is gorgeous. You’re so incredibly beautiful. I am a VERY lucky man.” Oden growled, “She said they. It’s like she was going to say something else.” We could figure it out later. She knew I couldn’t lie.

She asked, “Will you regret this if you find out later... I’m not who you think I am?

” I replied, “There’s nothing about you I will regret.

You’re exactly who I think you are.” She whispered, “But what if I’m not?

” I realized she didn’t think I knew she was Melanie.

Oden snorted. I smiled, “Then I’ll enjoy learning more about you. ” I kissed her again.

We began making out and petting each other through our clothes. I groaned when I cupped her breast. I desperately wanted to play with her nipple. I reached to take her shirt off, but she pulled back. Her heart rate was near panic levels and her face showed it.

I asked, “Is everything ok? If this is too fast….” She cut me off, “No. I mean... I just… I don’t want to take my shirt off.” I was startled. I put up my hands saying, “Hey, it’s really ok if this is too fast. We can go to bed.”

I offered, “There are plenty of rooms here for you to sleep in if you don’t want to stay in my room. You are absolutely welcome to join me though. I’ll snuggle the fuck out of you.” I’d also be sleeping on the floor outside whatever room she picked.

Melanie stammered, “I... No. I want to do this… I just want my shirt to stay on.” I nodded, “Ok.” That was confusing but fine. Before I could say anything else, her mouth crashed onto mine. I smelled Phil coming and popped us to my room.

I laughed, “Now I have more questions.” She smiled, “You could ask them... or….” She took my shirt off.

Her jaw dropped. She said, “OH MY GOSH! Seriously? I mean… good gosh… look at you! Are you kidding me? What the heck?! How do look better in person than your videos? That’s insane…

. Do you ever leave the gym? I mean… just wow…

I mean…” I pulled her onto the bed and kissed her neck.

I kissed where her marking spot was, where my mark would be one day. She moaned. I gently nipped at the spot. She jumped, “Holy mother of pearl… what the….” I bit it again harder. She ground her hips into mine, whimpering. I couldn’t stop my smile.

I muttered against her skin, “Maybe when I found out you were my top account viewer across several accounts I had that drilled down into the content you like. Then maybe I created more content just for you.” She moaned, “Xander… oh… oh…” I kissed her body through her shirt.

When I got down to her jeans I slowly peeled them off. She was wearing boy short underwear. I gathered the hem of them in my teeth and slowly, with some shimmying on her part, slid them off her. I’d seen this plenty of times in the Hackura realm, so I had the basics.

Her eyes widened when I settled between her legs. I inhaled, “My Lovebug smells amazing.” She flushed, “I mean… that can’t be true. I should probably shower... I mean... OH MY GOSH! Why didn’t I shower?!” I used my tongue to gently lick her clit. She jerked her hips.

I was just going to fake it until I made it since I'd seen this done a lot. She started panting and gripped the sheets. I slid my finger around her entrance. I groaned finding her dripping wet. I slowly slid my finger in.

She whimpered and came halfway off the bed. I slowly started moving my finger. Her moans steadily became more frequent and closer together. Suddenly I felt her walls clamp down on my finger and she screamed, “XANDER!”

I slid another finger inside her and kept going. I knew she needed to be prepared before I slid my dick insider her. I didn't want to hurt her. After her fourth orgasm she begged me, “Please… please Xander… Claim me… please….” I agreed, “With pleasure.” Oden purred, “Finally.”

I snapped my jeans off. Her eyes widened when she spotted my dick. Oden chuckled. She somewhat shrieked, “Ummm hold the phone... that fits in me? I don’t think it does… mistakes have been made… that’s like a massive weapon of destruction.” She was good for my ego.

I laughed, “It fits. It will be ok.” She raised an eyebrow, “Easy for you to say. It’s not going inside you.

” I laughed again offering, “We can wait.” She frowned, “No… I just… are you sure that’s going to fit?

” I nodded, “Yes.” She pursed her lips, “I guess I’ll have to trust you then.

” I laughed, “You can definitely trust me.” Her eyes softened.

I kissed her slowly and lined us up. I pulled back admitting, “It might hurt for a second.” She shrugged nonchalantly saying, “I’m sure I can take it.” I did not like the sound of that at all. My Melanie, My Lovebug, should not be used to pain. Oden demanded, “Think about that later.” I would.

I slowly slid inside her. When I felt her barrier, I used my healing light as I pushed past it. She purred while I slid the rest of the way in. She looked down asking, “That’s it? You’re like all in? You’re not… there’s no way that thing fit… you did say it would though… so… I’m confused.”

I chuckled, “Yes, I fit.” She admitted, “That didn’t hurt at all… look at that… you do actually fit. Do I have a magical vagina?” I laughed, “I used my healing light so you wouldn’t feel pain, and it’s magical to me.” I kissed her and slowly began to move.

Melanie closed her eyes. I growled, “I want to see your beautiful pale green eyes.” Her eyes snapped back to mine. She whispered, “Gosh, that feels so good… like… better than imagined… which… well… gosh…”

I smirked and repeated the move, “That? That right there?” She moaned, “Yes!” I kept repeating it. I whispered, “I’m close.” She whimpered, “Don’t stop… just… I’m close….” When she came this time, I couldn’t help but come right after her.

I groaned and nearly said her real name. I barely stopped myself. This was going to be harder than I thought. I was so focused on not saying her name, I didn’t even realize my hand was glowing. I only noticed it when Melanie seemed to have a second orgasm out of nowhere.

I realized I’d shared my light with her. Oden growled, “That’s not fair to your wolf side.” I winced admitting, “I didn’t mean to do it, and you know that. I mean I want to, but technically, she didn’t actually say anything about my light. Just about not marking her.”

Oden snored, “Fairies.” I countered, “Loopholes. Plus, it settles a piece of you, I can tell.” She was ours and marked in a way. He admitted, “It does settle me somewhat. It’s a little less than nothing.” It was more than nothing to my Fairy side, but I knew why it wasn’t to him.

I slid out of Melanie slowly. I already felt like I was missing something not being connected with her.

Aesir above! How did my mated siblings get anything done?

I’d link Phil and ask if he knew but he might just challenge me to a sword fight if I did that.

I could tell in the bond he was also having sex.

I went into the bathroom and washed myself off before grabbing a washrag for her. She was already asleep. I gently cleaned her up then conjured the wash rag back to the bathroom. I crawled into bed, pulled her into me, and fell asleep.

I woke up knowing I was missing something. I jolted up and realized it was a ‘who’ not a thing. Melanie wasn’t with me. She was gone. Her side of the bed was cold too. I snapped on sweats and a hoodie and searched the room. Her bag was still here, and it caught my eye.
