Cade Mark and I sat down at the table. Kaya pushed the food towards us. Both of us began to dig in. I wondered what the meat was. It tasted different. "What is this." Seal." What? I was eating a seal. It didn't taste bad, but the texture was a little rubbery. Mark didn't seem to care; he just stuffed his face. After we finished, Helen asked, "So, splitting wood with your hands. "Mark responded. "Hey, they wanted to see how strong we are." Helen just rolled her eyes. I looked at Kaya, and she seemed to be engaged in some sort of discussion with someone. I connected to her. "What is going on." "Nieva wants to know how long you all are staying?" "Why does it matter." "Well, no, and yes. The men are going out fishing tomorrow, so if you are staying, you have been asked to join." "Well, we planned on staying for a week." "Okay, I will tell Nieva." After a moment, she began to mind link again. "Um, just so you know, you and Mark will be gone for three days." "What?" "Yeah, um, the hunt
Kaya We spent the remainder of the evening just relaxing. We had caribou again for dinner. Afterwards, we all sat around the fire. "Quill, hand me the pipe."He passed me the pipe that was already packed with Sheese. I took a few puffs. I looked at Cade and offered him the pipe. He took it and began to also puff on it. He then passed it on. He looked at me so I could see his lips. "That is fantastic." I knew he would like it. It was relaxing. We stayed by the fire a bit longer when we retired for the night. I walked back with him to the tent we had set up earlier. When we got in, I turned to face him and began to kiss him. We started to remove our clothes. It didn't take long for us to be wrapped up in each other. After we were lying there on the furs. Cade mind-linked me. "Can you always hear everyone?" "Well, I can't hear anyone." I laughed. "But I assume you hear people having sex. We live in handmade tents. They aren't exactly soundproof." "I guess you're right. Was it weird
Cade It has been three days, and we finally found the pod of whales. I had never seen one up close. The size was intimidating. The large canoe held half of the pack's men. The other half was held in another large canoe. We rowed, so we were close to the pod. Then, the command was given, and we all released the spears. They connected with the giant beast. One of the spears pierced an eye. I was pretty sure that was the kill shot. Once the beast was killed, we attached the ropes. Someone blew a horn, signaling that the runner on the shore should go get the woman. We began to row the whale back to the beach. How often did they hunt these things? Quill had told me that when we got to the shore, we would strip the whale. Sure enough, once the whole thing was brought on shore, we began to cut into the fat. The women came in only a short time after we started. I did as I was told. We stayed there for two days until the creature was stripped clean. A lot of things needed to be proc
Kaya It has been a long day. I was nervous about going to a new place. It was not like when I went down south with my brother. That was only a two-day thing. This was forever. This was to be my new home. Cade was driving the truck, and Helen and Mark were asleep in the back seat of the cabin. Cade mind-linked me. "We will be there soon." I didn't respond. I was nervous beyond belief. How was I supposed to lead a pack with Cade? I was not from an alpha bloodline. I was just a normal wolf. What qualified me to lead? There was nothing extraordinary about me. "Are you okay?" "I am nervous." "No reason to be; they will love you." "And how do you know that. I am an outsider." "You are not an outsider." "Yes, I am. And what do I know about southern packs? I know nothing." "You will learn." "And what if they don't like me?" "They will like you just fine." "And how do you know?" "Because I have heard so. Everyone is excited to be getting a Luna." "But I don't know how to be a Luna. I have
Cade I had pulled out some chicken and some salad. Once warmed up, I served up the plates. I also got two cokes out of the fridge. Kaya looked down at the food. I picked up my fork and began to eat. She took her fork and poked at the food. She gobbled up the chicken but didn't touch the greens. "You don't like salad?" "Umm, I prefer to eat meat." It hadn't occurred to me that she may have never had a salad, seeing as the diet of people in the north is primarily fish, caribou, moose, and some bear. I am sure there is more meat, but I had only heard them talk about wild potatoes, mushrooms, and onions, and I assumed that was only in the summertime. "No problem." Just then, Helen walked into the kitchen. She looked at the two of us. “Cade, maybe Kaya would like to get some new clothes?" I looked at Kaya. She sipped the coke and made a face like she wanted to spit it out. I mind-linked her. "There is a cup in the cupboard by the fridge if you want water from the facet." She moved a
Kaya I woke up in the middle of the night. The bed was too soft. Just like it had been when I had stayed at the hotel with Quill. I got out of bed, looked over, and saw that Cade was still asleep. I just didn't feel comfortable in this bed. I wanted to make my den. It may make me more comfortable. I knew I should have made it before we fell asleep. I would need to explain the den thing to Cade when he woke up because I couldn't have people coming into it without being invited. I knew I would be territorial over it. Not to mention, I didn't want other scents in the den, so no one would be allowed to clean in here. I looked over at Cade. I loved that Cade was next to me; that comforted me. I contemplated going outside and building a fire, and sleeping out there. But I knew it would be best to stay in the room. I would not be comfortable sleeping away from him, not that the bond had been established. I walked over to the furniture in the large room. I grabbed the blanket that was
Cade "I am going out with Helen now." "Hold on." I stepped out of the shower. I grabbed the towel and wrapped it around my waist. She was just standing there staring at me. I took her in too. I had not ever seen her in regular clothes. They highlighted her curves. I pulled her into me. I began to kiss her neck. She moaned a little bit. I grabbed her face and kissed her lips. I knew she needed to go through, and although I wish I could stay wrapped up in her all day, I knew she needed to get going. So I pulled away. Before I said anything, she spoke. "Please don't let anyone in our room. No cleaning ladies, no one, and I don't want anyone touching our things." "Why?" "It is a den thing. I will explain when I get back." I had to wonder what this den thing was. I had meant to ask her about it earlier, but it slipped my mind. But she was now going to explain it when she got back. "Alight, you better get going through." I mind-linked. She turned, and I saw how the jeans hugged her ass.
Kaya It took about half an hour, but we finally reached a huge store. When we got out, I read that it said Target. We walked in, and I was immediately overwhelmed. Helen mind linked me. "Okay, so we are going to get all the essentials here: toothbrush, loofas, that kind of thing, plus some shoes so you won't be stuck in flip flops." I looked and saw lots of clothes as we walked. It didn't make sense. How could we find it all here? "Will we get everything here?" "No, just the basics; they have a big selection, but the quality is better at other stores. "I didn't understand, but I figured Helen knew best about this. We started down an aisle. It had tons of things I had never seen. "Let's start with a razor." "Razor, what for?" "Yeah, to cut your leg hair, shave down south, you know." "Why do you need a razor? I don't grow hair in those places." "What." "We in the north only grow hair on our heads and eyebrows." "That is convenient. You won't need that, then. Do the men not grow hair
