Chapter 25: Unexpected

It has been two weeks since my mom and Matty came to my world. My mom has still not woken up from her coma yet, and my anxiety has been raising by the day. I am not sure how long it is going to take for her to wake up, or not at all, but I am just hoping we will know what to do soon. I have not slept more than an hour at a time since my mom had gotten here, and I don't plan on having a normal sleep schedule until she wakes up.

"Hey, Alyssa… the rain is letting up, and it seems like it will only mist for most of the day. Maybe we should go hunting and stock up on some more meat since we still have a few weeks of the storm left." Alfie said with compassion in his eyes. He knew how much I was worrying about my mom, and he didn't like the fact that Doc was staying up with me at night and holding me when I would cry. For some reason, Doc was way more sympathetic towards my emotional condition.

"Yeah, Alyssa. Why don't all three of us go out and Royce can stay here to watch your mom. And we won't go far, so if she wakes up, you can be here quickly." Doc continued with a slight smile, hoping I would agree since I haven't moved further than 10 feet from my mom yet.

"Okay, but once I get a prey, I'm coming back here to be with her. I want to be the first person she sees when she wakes up."

"Okay, that's fine. Royce are you okay staying here?" Royce nodded. He was now nearly fully grown – at six foot two inches tall – and I knew he was going to want to move out soon, but he didn't want to mention it while my mom was in a coma.

We left the cave, I took a hard left and followed the valley of the mountain, Alfie took a hard right, and Doc took a slight left and went straight into the woods. I knew there was a creek not far from the cave in the direction I was going. There had always been large prey there getting a drink of some fresh water, and I was hoping there were some there now as well.

As I came up on the creek, I could hear quiet footsteps, but I knew they were from a large animal. I turned into a lion silently and crouched down into the brush so that I was hidden. Just as I was about to see the source of the footsteps, I was pounced on by a large white fox. He pinned me down on my back as he turned into a now naked Doc. I turned as well, and our naked bodies were pinned against each other. He continued to keep his hands on mine that were next to my head. He interlaced our fingers together, and I followed suit, grasping his hand into mine. "I almost didn't know where you were hiding." He said as he leaned his head closer to mine. Our faces were just six inches away from each other, now.

"Well then, how did you find me?" I said with a slight chuckle and a smirk on my face.

"Your heartbeat. I could distinguish yours from a crowd easily." He retorted, making my face flush. I had been pinned in a shallow puddle, but I wasn't cold at all. The rain was actually quite warm on my skin as I laid in the water.

I averted my gaze from his embarrassingly as I said, "We should probably get hunting…" he paused for a few seconds before wrapping my chin in between his gentle grasp.

"You know that is not what you need right now." He said as he leaned slightly closer to me.

"Doc, what I need is for my mom to wake up so that I know that she is okay." I said as my eyes started to water for the millionth time this week.

Doc swiped his gentle thumb across my cheek and placed my ear between in thumb and the rest of his fingers gracefully. "Yes, but until that happens, you need to keep your mind busy so that you aren't worrying." I knew he was right, but it just felt wrong to take my mind off of my mom and her condition for even a second. I looked up at him with my sorrow filled eyes. His mouth quickly came down on mine in a loving way.

This kiss felt different than when I would kiss Alfie. Alfie always kissed me as if he were going to break me if he was anywhere near rough in any way. Doc was kissing me as though he knew my strength and wanted to use that to his advantage. I could feel the sparks coming from his skin and into mine, just like when Alfie kissed me. Just as I was about to wrap my arms around his neck, he pulled back slightly, but our lips were still gently grazing each other's. "Alyssa, you know how much I care about you…"

"Doc, it's okay…"

"No, let me just say this. You know how much I care about you, and I know you are wary about mating because of what I did to you when you first came here."

"Doc, it's okay you…"

He placed a soft kiss on my lips to shut me up before continuing. "I want to say this. I regret what I did to you when you first came here. I was just trying to help, but I hadn't known that you just hadn't adjusted to seeing true forms, let alone being one. I hadn't known that you weren't from this world. If I'd had known, I definitely wouldn't have tried to bite you. What I did was wrong, and I know just simply apologizing for it probably isn't going to make you forgive me, but I just want you to know how much I regret what I did to you." I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him in for a long, hard kiss. Our lips moved in unison as if they were dancing, and I slipped my tongue gently in his mouth before pulling away slightly.

"Doc, it's okay. You don't need to apologize. I have forgiven you. I have realized over these last two weeks how much I do care about you – how much I love you. You have been there for me when nobody else has. You have stayed up with me just to sit in silence even though I see how tired you really are. Doc, you have cared about me in the exact way that I needed. Yeah, Alfie has been here for me too, but not in the way you have. You understand what I am feeling, and you understand what I need without having to be told." My eyes were watering more now, and tears started to fall from my eyes and roll down the sides of my face and onto the ground beneath me.

Doc wiped away my tears and held my face with both of his hands. "Alyssa, I don't want you to cry, ever again. I want you to be happy forever and never be sad, or worried, or angry, or hurt. I want you to only feel good emotions." As he finished, I pulled him closer to me once again and our lips danced against each other's as his tongue slipped into my mouth gently. He lowered his body onto mine and I could feel his long cock rub beneath my thighs. It was longer than Alfie's slightly, but a little thinner than his. He started to grind on my body in unison with our kiss and moaned deeply when his cock felt the wetness between my legs. "I want to be inside of you." He said frankly as he nipped my bottom lip. I wrapped my legs around him approvingly. He came in hard and fast for another kiss while gently pushing his cock tip inside my tight opening.

I took a deep breath in as he pushed inside me and let out a moan. I could feel my heart swell as the mating bond formed and he pushed inside me until he fit perfectly inside snuggly. "Doc, I want you to fuck me the way you've wanted to fuck me up until this point." He knew exactly what I meant. I knew he wanted to fuck me hard and rough – to dominate me. I wanted all of that from Alfie, but I knew I wouldn't get it genuinely from him. He pulled out until it was just his tip inside of me and rammed into me once gain. I could feel my walls tighten around him as he repeated that over and over.

Just when I was about to finish, Doc stopped and grasped my throat possessively, "Oh no, I didn't tell you that you could cum yet. Now, turn around." He said dominantly as he pulled out of me and slapped my ass roughly when I started to turn. I arched my back and leaned backwards into him. He thrusted into me and wrapped his hand around my neck to pull me up so that my back was against his chest as he thrusted into me harder. "I want you to look me in the eyes when you cum for me." He said as he turned my head to look at him.

As his cock rammed into me harder and harder, I could feel my walls contract around him once again. "I'm going to cum. I want you to cum with me." He said as he planted a hard, possessive kiss on my neck. He started to extend his fangs quickly. Suddenly, he bit down, hard, on my neck as he moaned, and I screamed. I could feel his cum fill me up as I squirted down both of our thighs. He released my neck from his fangs as I could feel the blood start to drip down my collar bone.

We stayed there for a minute to catch our breath until we heard a branch crack. We shifted simultaneously and each went in the brush to conceal our presence. As we slowed our breathing enough to be completely silent, two large moose slowly walked into the clearly. They started to smell the ground near where Doc and I were just moments ago, so before they caught our scents and took off, we lunged out of the brush and took them both down together. I tackled mine and bit its neck quickly for a humane and quick death. Doc did the same. Once our prey were both down, we looked at each other and started chuckling when we shifted back to our naked human form. "Well, I wasn't expecting the hunting session to go like this." I said between laughing fits.

"Me either, but I just couldn't resist the opportunity to get you alone." He said as he started to crawl towards me. When he got close enough, he pulled my arm so that I fell towards him. He caught me in his arms and kissed me erotically once again. "We should probably get back before Alfie sends out a search party." He said as his gaze traveled down from my eyes and onto my left shoulder. "It looks great there." He said with that familiar glisten in his eyes as he rubbed next to my shoulder with his right thumb.

I looked down and saw a white fox with its fangs out and its eyes bright red. Its tail was thick and fluffy looking, as if it had its winter coat. I could feel a happy sensation course through my body, but it wasn't me who was feeling it. I looked over at Doc and said, "Is this what it feels like to imprint?" his eyes shut up to mine as he pulled me closer to him by my right hip; he never took his thumb off of his mark on my chest.

"You feel it? Oh, baby, that's amazing!" he planted a long, hard peck on my lips. "I love you so much!"

I wrapped my arms around him and snuggled my face into his chest. "I love you too, but we should probably get back to the cave before Alfie really does send out half of the town to look for us." In agreement, he shifted into his fox and grabbed his prey by the back of the neck. I did the same – I shifted into my white lion – and we dragged our prey back to the cave.
