16. Warm rain

Aiden´s P.O.V.

It feels nice and I shiver in pleasure.

We take a step forward together and the warm water hits me fully now. It is such an overwhelmingly comforting feeling that I have no other choice but to let out a soft moan. Noah groans in response and kisses the back of my neck before he starts placing soft kisses all over my shoulders. He kisses some of the scars on my upper back as if trying to heal them that way and I smile at the gesture.

I feel heat inside my body and the tingling sensation is back. It feels devine.

Noah grabs some shampoo and begins washing us both. I can´t remember the last time I used shampoo. My hair has become dull with the years it used to be much shinier.

He then grabs some body soap and starts putting it on my body. His gentle touches bring my body into overdrive. All this attention and love is making my wolf purr in satisfaction. It feels like I´ve gone to heaven...

After several minutes, when we are both clean, me being cleaner than ever before, we make our way out of the shower. Noah gets two towels and then bends down to dry me uo first. My face gains colour again.

After I´m fairly dry, he gets a fluffy bathrobe and puts me in it. It is too big for me and I feel so snuggled up in it, I let a bright smile make its way on my face. I look up at Noah who´s staring at me and he suddenly goes towards me, grabbing me and engulfing me in a tight hug.

When he lets go, he brings our lips together, kissing me passionately and I melt into his touch with a sigh.

"I could look at your smile forever, Aiden", he says and I smile even more.

We leave the bathroom and are greeted by the others who are already dressed. All of them smile at my own smiling form and James runs over to me and picks me up into his arms. He spins me around making me laugh a little.

"Are you warmer now, love?", he says placing me on his hip. "Yes, James", I say and put my head on the side of his neck. He smells so good. He lets out another hearty laugh and puts me down again.

"Come on, time to get dressed", he says and we walk over to a closet. "Our clothes will have to do for you for a while until we buy you stuff that will fit you." "Y-you mean, I... I get to wear your clothes?", I say in disbelief. "Yes darling. We want our sscent all over you anyway so don´t mind at all", James tells me.

He picks out a nice blue sweater, some boxers and some long pyjama pants that must belong to Luke because they are only a tad too big for me, so I roll the pantlegs up a little bit. He also gives me some warm socks to put on.

James is right, I do smell like them now and I absolutely love that feeling. James´ hand suddenly grabs my butt and squeezes it, making me jump a little. I spin around and I am met with James standing really close to me. "Sorry, I couldn´t resist. I love the effect I have on you", he tells me in that amazing accent of his. He makes me weak.

As we go back into the bedroom, I blush even more, as I see Luke lying on the bed under Wilder who is pinning his wrists down and kissing him passionately. Luke lets out a moan and my breath hitches in my throat. James seems to notice, as he lets out a groan after that.

"Guys, you have to stop or I won´t be able to", James says sounding slightly desperate. Wilder stops to look back at us. He smirks and gets up again, Luke doing the same shortly afterwards.

"Let´s get something to eat", Noah chimes in.

Food? Real food? What if I´m not allowed to eat? I haven´t heard the new rules yet... what do I do? It was all going so great, what if I make a mistake and get punished?

Unnoticed to them, I struggle internally, keeping my small smile that has become forced as we head downstairs to the kitchen.

Luke´s P.O.V.

I´m really hungry. Good thing Wilder is such an amazing cook. He´s whipped up a nice breakfast in minutes. Aiden has been sat on top of the working counter with his feet dangling. He looks so cute I could kiss him the whole day.

He wants to help, I can tell but Wilder wouldn´t let him. He said that he wants Aiden to get his strength back before he starts doing work of any kind again.

We are now making our way over to the dining table, Noah having already set plates for us. We all gather around and sit down chatting about wich Avenger is the best. It´s a pretty funny conversation until I notice that Aiden hasn´t sat down next to me where his plate is. Instead, he is now kneeling on the floor next to the table, sitting on his legs with his hands on his thighs and his head hung low.

It´s sad to see him like this. It must be something that he had to do in his old pack. Seriously, what kind of messed up do you have to be in order to hurt someone so fragile? I feel anger and worry growning inside me. Before I can utter a word, Wilder gets up from his seat and picks Aiden up from the floor. He places him on his seat at the table before going back to his own plate. Everyone now has a full plate of lovely eggs and bacon on them. I try to ignore the tension that is now present and dig into my food. The Alphas soon do the same but Aiden just sits there, staring at his plate.

James is the first to speak up: "Aiden why aren´t you eating?" A pause follows his question, "I´m not allowed to eat before everyone has finished", he answers, boring holes into his plate with his eyes.

Suddenly, Noah´s fist collides with the table, making Aiden and me jump in shock. He is seriously angry.
