The cabin was exquisitely warm. The fire cracked and burned, the soft glow filling the room and the warmth permeating Lisa's soft skin. Her soft dirty blonde locks were drawn together in a towel to dry from the soothing bath she had taken a few minutes earlier. she felt refreshed and rejuvenated by the soak in the warm water and now dried herself by the fire. Her eyes darted to the door for every creek of the whispering wind that passed the door. Every time, she thought It was him. She straightened the silk nightgown every time, nervous that Jacob would just pop in as he usually did.
As a grown woman of 27, Lisa's body was not without flaw or merit. Or at least there had been no complaints from Jake at this stage. She smiled and fanned her nightgown over her breasts, unbound from the B cup bra she was forced to wear when in public. Her hips were wider than thinner women, giving her the 'child bearing hips' her mamma told her about. She smiled as she thought out loud to herself.
"Not bad....Not bad at all." it was then the voices caught her ear. Jacob and the old man had returned. Before she laid herself to rest, Lisa paid Natalie her last visit of the night. The young girl, bless her still slept. The young one that Jacob and herself had taken in to care for. Outside, however, things had taken a disturbing turn. Then, with the giddy nervousness of a virgin school girl, she rushed to the warm bedroom to await Jacob.
"Why not?" Burns with Rage said with quiet defiance. He and his mentor, Scars the Shadow, stood before the cabin where the girl was. It had been only seconds ago that his master had told him the harsh truth, that Burns with Rage could not have the human as his mate.
" Burns with Rage...Jacob. She is human." The wise loup-garou stood aside his pupil, his human skins shown to Luna. He appeared as an older, well build man. His hair, like his wolf skin's fur, had grayed with age. Even under his sacred cloak and the tunic he wore, scars could still be felt. Honored scars from noble battles fought. Still, with his great renown and his coveted status as mentor, his student still spent no word in cutting him off.
"She has the blood in her! She is a human kin! Surely you can smell it on her!!" Scars the Shadow lowered his head. He reached out to Jacob and laid his hand upon his student's broad shoulder, looked into his green eyes and spoke his heavy words from his wolf's heart.
"Aye, I can. But, Letting her know Is a risk. She would know. The girl you protect with her already suspects that her 'pet' and her Huge furry friend are one in the same. It's only a matter of moons before..." Burns with Rage threw his master's hand from his shoulder. His short red hair exposing itself as he stormed a few steps away.
"I know. But they are all I have. They're both human but they are MY responsibility. If the Gathering doesn't like It, then let them send their lackeys to me." He turns to his master. Their eyes meeting for a moment. Green to gray. Then, the old warrior turned away.
"Go then. But be warned. Should they tell anyone...I cannot guarantee their safety." To this, burns with Rage only nodded and turned to enter the cabin, where the young lady awaited him.
"Took you long enough?" Lisa smiled, laying on her side before Jacob. She saw the mesmerized look in his eyes as he gazed upon her. she grew red in the face as he held is gaze against her sultry form.
"Sorry. The old man was just...Just giving me advice." Jacob reached back, letting his black duster slip from his shoulders. His body was massive, strong and rugged from his rigid lifestyle. When the shirt came off, Lisa winced a little at the scar across his chest. The one she herself had patched. Crazy bastard, she thought. He had insisted he have a scar.
