039 Get Under Her

Erebus was woken by the time Kitty went into the shower. He lied his head on his arms and fell back to sleep.

He didn't move or even open his eyes when Kitty opened her bedroom door, just curling there on the floor. It WAS a long night and he fell asleep late, but it was because that he wanted to know Kitty's reaction to his wolf form that he lied there, waiting.

Kitty didn't try to wake him up, thinking he was exhausted and needed some rest. So she just stood there staring at him for a while.

Silence.

For a man, it was showing this beast form to a girl he liked that worried Erebus; but for a woman, well, a girl still, it was--

"You are soooo cute..." Kitty mumbled in the way any girl teasing a cute puppy and knelt down by his side, touching his fluffy ear with her hand, "I hope you won't be mad if you know about this, but you are just TOO cute!!!"

The silver wolf opened his eyes but didn't move, his big blue eyes fixed on her showing that he was awake, but he didn't move.

"Oops, sorry... Did I wake you?" Kitty withdraw her hand.

Erebus didn't speak, he just rubbed his head against her as a sign of happiness.

"Awwwww..." Kitty sighed and threw herself on his body, her arms trying to hold him, "You are the cutest thing ever! I like your fluffy ear!"

Erebus wasn't sure whether that was the compliment he wanted -- him, being a legendary alpha, being called as the "cute thing", but he was surely enjoying her hug and affection that he didn't really mind the name.

He curled his tail by his side and raised one of his arms for Kitty to slide down from his back onto his tail and use it as a bed. Kitty lied on this fluffy bed, her head on his paw under his own head, and Erebus put down his arm once again and covered her body.

"You should have knocked on the door, I would never refuse such a cutie in my room. You didn't have to sleep here, you poor thing." Kitty put her hand on Erebus's face, the silver fluff there was soft and smooth, unlike the fur on his back which were harder.

"Next time I will." Even in his low voice, Erebus's words still reached Kitty like thunder through the vibrant of his body.

"You have a gentle soul, you know that?" Kitty closed her eyes, mumbling and soon fell asleep again.

It wasn't particularly hard for Erebus to sleep on the floor. Not to mention the one night he spent in a forest every month, his fights, his wars and his life, had always been harder. Comfort was not something constantly on his mind.

However, now it got really hard for Erebus to fall asleep again. He got extremely excited when Kitty threw herself and slide into his arms, and he didn't think he would be so enticed to a body but--

Kitty's legs were trying to get under his belly because that was where it was warmer, and with her body pressed against his, and her amazing scent right under his nose, Erebus just felt as if he was about to catch fire.

He took a deep breath trying to calm himself but all that did was causing Kitty to move her body in her sleep, as if finding a better position, which only made it harder for Erebus.

He wanted her so badly that he could feel the changes in his body, and the hardest part was that he had what he needed to calm that thirst right there in his arm, yet he had to restrain himself because what was in his arms was so precious, so delicate to him that he won't let anything ruin it, not even his own desire.

The next three hours was a total torture for him. He almost felt relieved when the maid opened the door to deliver breakfast.

"Oh! I'm sorry, my Lord!" The woman blurted out.

"Hush..." Erebus said. He didn't want to let Kitty know he bought the hotel for her and arranged his people around her yet.

And it was Erebus who woke Kitty up, because his voice reached her better than a low gasp from the maid far away from her.

"Hmmm..." Kitty moaned in his arms without opening her eyes, and stretched her body, only to felt her feet reached something hard, "Hmm?"

She pulled back her legs to her chest and tried to sit up and see what that was. Erebus almost jumped up to run away. He stopped when he realized Kitty was still lying on his tail.

"Want breakfast, my little kitten?" He asked, hoping she would answer "yes".

"Sure, what's for breakfast?" Kitty rubbed her eyes, not fully awake.

"What's for breakfast?" Erebus asked the maid--

"Ahh!" Kitty screamed at the maid, who put the plate in her hands down on the table as fast as she could and ran away yelling "Strawberry!"

"Oops, did I scare her? I was just surprised because I didn't know she was there..." Kitty watched the door shut by the maid, and mumbled to Erebus.

"It's okay. She'll be fine." But he won't be if Kitty keeps on rubbing against his body. He might just throw himself against her and take her right there.

Erebus felt like he deserved some kind of awards for having so strong a self-control and not doing anything inappropriate, yet.

"Strawberry!" Kitty yelled and jumped up to the bowl, and Erebus felt as if he was just granted the amnesty. If he was in his human form, he would have been in heavy sweat and there would be no hiding of his secret whatsoever.

"Aren't you having breakfast with me?" Kitty was surprised to see Erebus sneaking to the door, "Oh, right, you have your own breakfast waiting..."

"I'll be back, enjoy your breakfast!" Erebus ran before his words can fall on the ground.

Kitty stood there frozen, staring at his fast escaping with half of a strawberry still in her mouth and mumbled to herself: "What's the rush?"

"How rude." A man's voice came from the open door.
