34: Denying it
*Gudrun*
"It's going to be hard to top what you exposed me to". Martin stops in the courtyard as we arrive back at the desolate farm, and blinks down at me. "Dinner and a movie ?"
"A simple thank you is good enough for me”. I blush and look away.
"Well, thank you, then".
His gaze scrutinizes mine and I get a clear sense that he knows exactly what I am feeling. A wave of the inappropriate unspokenness he had shown me at the imaginary lake makes me gasp, which only makes his mouth stretch in a larger grin. Intolerable!
"We'd better get going”. I flee over to her car “Would you please explain the problem to

The witch and her wolf series 37: Witches and wolves
*Gudrun*I turn hesitantly, ready to go. Suddenly I feel a cold breath on my neck. I turn around and see the huge body rise to its full height in front of me. He holds a paw out to me, and with a strained snarl he pulls the wolf's features back. He does not manage to fully transform before I, driven by an impulse I can not control, throws myself around his neck and presses my lips against his.He freezes and pulls his face back."I ... hurt you". His dark voice rumbles. He narrows his eyes, and when he opens them again, the last remnant of the wolf is driven away. "I'm talking like a caveman"."Martin, you're a caveman". I laugh. My fingers curiously follow the powerful jaw line.

*Luca* "Good morning”. I stop when hearing Martin's overly playful tone of voice. "Morning ? It's dinner now". I mumble. “Why are you in such an annoyingly good mood ?" "I had a good long run last night". Martin finds a mug with a lot of coffee spots. "Where is the little nerd ?” "Somewhere outside with Linus". I stare at my uncle, who takes a sip of his coffee. When did I last see him drinking coffee ? "How did it go with him last night ?" “Same as yesterday. He was about to sm
The witch and her wolf series 41: Handling it
*Luca*I put effort into every gallop and let the rage propel my body forward. I have made a mess, yes, but had they needed to wade in it ? I snarl and slap after a defenseless branch that hangs in the way. The thigh-thick branch breaks off right at the trunk, but I continue the wild sprint preoccupied with my inner angry debate.What the hell is it now with Martin ? The happy grin, which is chronically smeared all over his face, is about to make me vomit: Can the man not understand how dangerous it can potentially become ? An emotion creeps through the diaphragm, then,the sight of my uncle's face and the nauseating praise he had uttered about the red-haired witch brings back memories.Jealousy. For that is exactly how I had had it with Soleil i
