The Beast's Virgin Claim

She lightly compels him to shift rearward with her palms so she can meet his eyes. "Y-You are?"

"Of course, I am. I am sorry I have not spent much time with you as before but just bear with me for a little while longer until I have gotten more used to my current life, okay? It is quite tiring and very hard for me."

"Okay." She nods taking a step closer into his warmness clutching onto the collar of his shirt and he offers her a fond smile full of affection and love and also his eyes speak of his true feelings towards his little sister.

"You wish to go to school?"

"Yes." She shakes her head eagerly.

"Then you will."

"Really? I can go?"

"It is what you want and who am I to deny your wishes. But you can do so only on two conditions."

"What are they?"

"One we will go back to your room and you will tell me all about each of the medals you possess in your drawer. Two, I would like to come to the presentation thing at the school instead of Theia."

She scowls as though she does not comprehend his words. "Why?"

"Because I want to. Because I am your brother. Or do you not wish for it?"

"No. No. I do. I do wish for it." She screeches with excitement and binds her arms around his neck as he lifts her up and sets her on his hip grinning down at her. She then ultimately notices Ira standing by the glass doors and waves at her. "Hello, Ira. I saw how much fun you had wrestling with Gio today."

Both Alpha Giovanni and Ira stare down at her with perplexed looks but then he turns toward me with a raised eyebrow and I give him an awkward smile. He then diverts his attention to his female with a teasing smirk. "Of course, Ira here undoubtedly loves wrestling."

"Oh goddess, tell me she did not see us." Ira conceals her red face with her quivering palms unable to hide her embarrassment.

"She did and so did Theia." He chortles earning an indignant glare from his female. He playfully strolls towards her and she flashes her teeth angrily at him. "Gianna. Chiudi le orecchie."

(Close your ears)

The pup closes her ears with her palms obediently and he leans down to grip Ira's waist with his right limb and yanks her to him earning a surprised gasp from her. He leans down and whispers something into her ear only to let her go with a nip to her throat and her cheeks fume even more. Head thrown back roaring laughter departs his chest at her reaction and with a nod of acknowledgement towards me he climbs up the stairs carrying an enthusiastic Gianna back to her room.

Ira can barely meet my gaze, she is flushed all the way to the tip of her ears. "I-I apologize. He can be-"

"No need to apologize. I was once in the same position as you. Males are like that, you will get used to it in time." I do not wish for her to get even more mortified with the situation.

Her eyes broaden to my words followed by a warm smile that paints her stunning freckled face. "Thank you."

"For what?"

"For taking care of Gianna and for being...you."

"Of course." I give her a small grin of friendly liking in return.

"How is your male doing today?" She asks studying my belly. "Another four months to go for him to finally see the world."

"He is sleeping I suppose not a single kick I have felt from him today and yes I cannot wait until he is out of me. But I am also enjoying his presence inside me it is an indescribable feeling." I chuckle grazing my belly with my palm.

"How about I fix you something for your feet, they look painful. I will make you some breakfast too your male must be upset for not feeding him yet. Wait here for me and we can spend some time together after."

"Thank you, I would like that." I deliver to her a thankful nod as she saunters into the hallway disappearing into the kitchen.

Plopping down upon the couch I lean my back against the feathery cushion humming lowly in appreciation from the base of my throat. This feels good, I would feel better if my feet and calves could get massaged. Phobos would have done that for me with no protest. Back home when we trying for a pup he obtained several of these ointments and stocked them into our cabinets. When I had asked him what they were he simply said they were for my soles and for other parts of my body, he had numerous conversations with the mated males and females of the pack with big families asking around for advice on how he could nurse me during my pregnancy.

He even had these cute little texts hidden in his drawers that he imported from Deimos's lands on how to take care of the needs of a pup, how to change them, feed and dress them. Even as a juvenile he always had been a male who preferred educating himself through books it was what seized most of his attention whenever I had gone to play with him at the castle, his room was stacked with them and because of such diverse books, he grew smarter than any other with each passing day.

Despite us living in a more uncivilized environment he was prepared to change a few aspects of that for me. He wanted to bring in diapers, get feeding bottles and even some expensive blankets that would keep our male warm. He wanted to do everything so that I would be comfortable so that our pup would be content. I remember how thrilled he was to have a male who would carry parts of both our souls. Yet he wanted our male to look and be more like me than him. He thought his darkness should not be imprinted onto our pup but rather my light.

Thoughts of Phobos bring an unhappy smile to my face and I shake my head pushing his snapshots I keep treasured within my mind away.. He is all I can think about day and night, it is getting harder to bridge this distance between us.
