chapter 25 Rest Love

Samson's pov

Emily fell asleep quickly resting on my shoulder she woke here and there momentarily but was never fully awakened. As we had a seat all to ourselves, I laid her out fully on the seat placing her head in my lap, after she had fully fallen asleep. It would be a long drive into the wolves' territory one that would take most of the night. I also prayed we would make it with time to spare before sunrise. Though at our driving pace which we were indeed speeding was pretty fast I still worried. I just hoped the alliance my father had made once would hold and the wolves were honorable to their word. I also prayed we would make it with time to spare before sunrise. Though at our driving pace which we were indeed speeding was pretty fast I still worried. Or would it apply now only to the coven and its head leader? 'Please goddess Inanna let it apply I prayed to myself over, and over again.

The time of the drive passed quickly and upon our arrival, we met only with the sentries. Who knew of our coming, they ushered us in through the entrance of the territory. Upon arriving as their main building was quickly ushered to our rest quarters they assigned their usual night guests. knowing time wasn't on our side where the sun was concerned. Emily I didn't wish to wake and she was in such a deep slumber I merely picked her up and carried her from the van and into our designated rooms. That were graciously afforded us in a darkened corner. I thanked our hosts and they nodded and quickly left up. I placed emily on the bed of the room. Which had no windows and i was grateful for this they must have vampire visitors once in a while probably for business trade purposes.

Emily's pov

"Em.. em.. sweetie" I started feeling peppered kisses across my face. Slowly I came to "how long was I asleep for". I asked with eyes still closed as I cat stretched and snuggled into Samson's side and warmth. I slowly came to the realization we were no longer in the van but instead in a bed. it smelled freshly washed as well. The room light was on but i could tell that there was no windows in the room. it had its own washroom.

This realization of our new location caused me to open my eyes sit up and look around me in curiosity and confusion. "Dear you have been asleep like the dead for a week. You just started to shift in your sleep a little that I thought I should probably try to finally wake you." I smiled at him. Samson then got up and went to a mini-fridge across the room pulling out two bags he brought them to me saying "eat sweetheart your body needs it." I nodded and did as he asked of me. "A week?!" i stated reapetinf him in suprise.

"I know you have questions but once your done feeding I'll answer all I can. As I finished the first bag there was a knock at the door I smelled them in the air; my sense was once more heightened and now also on high alert I hissed at the scent. Samson rubbed my arm up and down soothing me "calm you Emily there are wolves here it's their territory." I could then see even his fangs were out and though he showed nothing else he was fighting our own nature. Brushing my check he stood and answered the door. I remembered that we had planned on going to our new friends the wolves to request their help in the den i had never met nor been near warewolves beofre.

There at the door stood a boy looking rather nervous he couldn't be any more than ten. The boy refused to look at us directly instead he looked as if he was paying attention to everything around him at the same time he was so fidgety. "sorry to disturb you sir but my alpha sent me to see if you wished or needed anything before sunrise." Samson smiled at the boy genuinely sweetly and replied: "no thank you tell the alpha we will be able to speak with him at or after his dinner tomorrow night and we appreciated all his hospitality we send our gratitude." The boy looked pleased and relieved he backed away slowly then turned and practically ran down the hall. as Samson closes the door gently.

Turning to me "our natural instincts must be held in check while we are there at least. Once we return the accord with them may not last the peace between us and vampires is rare. But it is also why I choose to come to this pack first before all others also choose my friends with care. Gerold has a sister who is also a witch. It is my hope that she could help you learn your craft as much as your father can I am sure there's only so much knowledge he has as he himself is not a warlock entirely. " I nodded and smiled "I will do my best now the first question how long have I been asleep for?" Samson laughed at me as he reproached the bed "you've been asleep for three days, threes no vampiric doctors here so your father was the one tending to you".

I smiled at this and asked, " and what was his prognosis" then laughed at my own jokes Samson soon joined in the laughter. I stood and went into his open and waiting arms. I kissed him deeply passionately he lifted me to the bed and set me atop him we made love till we both were sated and fell into blissful dreams. Only to wake to knock on the door once again only this time to offer us changes of clothes. I tried to keep my reaction in check when he came to the door it was difficult but i held in my snarls.
