15 A Lovely date. 

When I tried to say anything to Lucas, all I got were noncommittal sounds. I don’t understand why things had suddenly gotten so awkward. I wondered whether it was because I was calling “Lou” so insipidly. But that was the role I was supposed to play. I looked up to see Lucas walking into a quiet street.

‘Lucas, how far are we going? Why don’t we get a hackney?’ I asked but he tucked me up against a wall and looked down at me seemingly annoyed.

‘What’s wrong?’ I asked.

‘I shouldn’t have involved you. I’m sorry. I never imagined he would be involved.’

‘Do you mean Chris?’

‘I don’t think that he’s just a visitor. I don’t think it would be good for you to carry on with this.’

I suddenly understood, and nodded. Was it awkward because of Chris? Lucas didn’t have to worry about it, I personally thought it was an opportunity for us.

‘I don’t think you…should be involved if Chris is involved.’ (Zuben: He just doesn’t want you to reconcile with your boyfriend.)

‘It’s fine.’

‘What?’

‘I really didn’t feel anything when I saw Chris.’ No pain in my chest, no tears, nothing. I was only surprised to see him. Everything was now occupied by Lucas, just being next to him was making my heart thump. If we me it would be awkward, and it could happen that he might want to get back together. But I had no plans to do that.

I looked up at Lucas’ unhappy face.

‘I guess you’re angry, so I’m wondering how I am going to be punished. If you want me to do something, ask and I’ll do it.’

‘You don’t have to do anything.’

‘But…’

‘I don’t like the idea of you seeing him.’ Lucas’ hand landed on my shoulder his grip was tight. His blue eyes were aglow. I was thrilled. Was this what his jealousy looked like?

‘I don’t want you to even think of him. I don’t want you involved in this, on the of chance you might meet him. I don’t like it.’

He was being a tad unreasonable. I could see his tension.

It was really weird because I don’t have any lingering feelings for Chris.

‘Lucas, why don’t we go back to the brigade and see Geist.’ I said with a smile as I reached up and stroked his face.

‘Mira, I really…’

I liked that he was open with his feelings, it showed his sincerity. It was obvious he cared for me.

‘I want to know more about you and Geist.’

‘Mira…’

‘Let’s not talk in a place like this. Let’s go.’ I said cheerfully, taking the lead and pulling him out of the alley. I took his hand, and with a little effort his entwinned his fingers with mine. He sighed and muttered something under his breath. I couldn’t hear, but his face and neck were a little ruddy. It wasn’t a bad thing.

‘I’m hungry,’ I declared, ‘Shall we stop at a nice pub to get something delicious?’

‘Fine, I lose.’

‘Were we playing a game?’

Things were no longer awkward between us, and we could cuddle as we walked back out onto the street. The reconnaissance was over, and I would like to enjoy the day without care a little. I became a little nervous because it was more intimate than on our way here

‘Do your feet hurt?’ he asked softly.

‘It’s fine. I have tanned leather in the shoes to prevent rubbing.’

‘Alright, we can walk a little more.’

Because of the crowd, I could cling onto Lucas’ muscular arm as we walked. It made me happy to be walking so close to him.

We ate skewers of Moffet beef at the BBQ and beer joint, then went strawberry picking. We walked around doing things that newly dating lovers would do. It has been a while since I had been out like this. It was probably the first time I have been pottering around the shop stalls out in the city centre for the festival. I never went out to festivals with Chris…ugh, I don’t want to remember such an unpleasant thing.

I was sipping on honey water on a miraculously free bench, and Lucas brought a baked egg snack called a calpot.

As we ate the snack, Lucas asked, ‘Is there anything you’d like, Mira?’

‘Hmm…it would be…leather gloves?’

‘Gloves? Summer is coming.’ He looked confused.

‘They’re for work. We get a pair as part of our uniform but they are always hard, not supple and so they crack, and they are uncomfortable to wear. So, I want a pair that are softer and also more durable.’

He smiled, ‘You love your job, don’t you?’

I laughed.

Our first date was very enjoyable, talking about sweet nothings as we strolled around town. It was so nice to have a relationship where we spend time together without thinking about strange things. With Lucas, everything seems like it would be a lot of fun.

Lucas took me to a leatherworker shop and bought be the softest pair of gloves. They looked well made. I will use them well and carefully.

In the late afternoon, we returned to the Rejude Brigade stables outside of the ramparts. When we entered the stable, the brigade members were surprised to see me. Usually when I visit, I am wearing plain service clothes, so seeing me in a nice dress was a surprise, and I was with their leader.

One of the men as very fiercely, ‘What’s going on here?!’ But he was dragged away quickly. I didn’t know how to answer, and Lucas was glowering.

‘I’m sorry, I wasn’t thinking. I forgot they would get excited seeing you in your nice dress.’

I wondered if it would be hard to come here from now on. Would I have to have another inspector over see the Rejude. Though I am not going to be partial to them, people might think so.

We headed to Geist’s kennel, he was awake looking listless.

‘Hello Geist, how are you doing?’ I said to him.

He got up and came up to me. He made a dull, ‘kyun~’. Poor Geist, perhaps because of the tranquilisers, he was looking very dull and his strength might be exhausted by the forced estrus. His fluffy coat looked dry.

‘You’ll get well soon.’ I said through the cage. Geist poked his nose against the cage, and I looked at Lucas, was it alright to stroke him.

Lucas nodded, ‘It’s fine. He wants you to.’

I put my hand in the opening and stroked his nose. Geist whined and narrowed his eyes. His ears were fluttering as he listened to my voice, so cute!

‘Good boy…’

‘He looks better than he did yesterday.’ Lucas said reaching in to wildly stroke Geist’s neck. Geist looked like he was happy. I could see they had a deep bond.

‘Have you had him long?’

‘I raised Geist from when he was a cub. He hadn’t even got fangs yet.’

‘He would have been newly born then.’

‘Yes, his mother was killed by a poacher. I found him crying in the nest.’

‘So you’re Geist’s substitute mommy.’

He laughed, ‘I’m sorry you have such a rugged looking mother, Geist.’

His eyes were gentle, and there is trust in Geist’s eyes as well. To me, their bond was unique. Geist must have been well cared for growing up. I wondered what a chase wolfe cub looked like. I tried to image how muscular and rugged Lucas handled a soft furry little Geist, trying to feed him milk, ferrying the little guy around. I really wanted to see it.

‘I also want to see fluffy babies as soon as possible.’

‘You want to spoil this guy even more.’

‘Hmm, I would have liked to see Geist as a cub. I also want to cuddle and squeeze baby Geist.’ I stroked under Geist’s chin.

‘Kyu~ Kyunn~’ Geist whined contentedly.

‘What are you doing? You look like you’ve forgotten your wildness.’ Lucas said as Geist accepted my stroking looking blissful.

‘Woof~’

Seeing him like this, it looked like there was nothing wrong, but he must be in pain. I must definitely bring the bad guys who did this to justice! How could they harm such a cute little wolfe? (Zuben: All of this rubbing and touching, I think we are forgetting something)

16 A Dangerous Scent. 

We left a lonesome Geist and returned to Lucas’ office. He did some paperwork for an urgent request of the brigade while I drew what I had seen.

Should I draw the strange chimney?

I wrote down the location of the building where Chris met Mr Cranbert. I listed the things that I felt needed further investigation.

‘Did that fucking bastard Chris say anything in particular?’ Lucas asked.

‘Not much, I only heard them greet each other, and Cranbert telling him that they had gotten something satisfactory before they weren’t inside.’

‘Does he have that much standing in society.’

‘Hmm, not so. His family owns a bottling factory, but it isn’t a big one.’ I replied as I continued my sketching. I felt Lucas’ eyes on me and looked up at him.

‘Is something wrong?’

‘No, nothing. I just thought your face as you concentrated was nice.’

‘Oh stop~’

I blushed at the compliment. Actually when I thought about it, my face and body was heated. I fanned my face with my hand and looked at Lucas who seemed to have lost concentration on his work.

‘Lucas, have you finished with work?’

On his desk were a pile of papers. I suppose a brigade leader is a busy person. I wondered if there were any clerks in the brigade. Usually, bigger brigades have an administrative office. Lucas put down his quill and went to the jug of water,

‘No not done yet. Mira would you like some water?’

‘Yes.’ I had just drunk honey water, but my mouth was dry. Perhaps it was because of the heat. I took a glass from Lucas wanting to get rid of the heat.

‘Is it alright to open the window?’ I asked.

‘Yeah, sure. I’m really hot.’

‘You’re also hot? Ah…the breeze feels nice.’

Lucas opened the window and a refreshing breeze blew in. I could feel the heat easing a little. While I was enjoying the fresh air, the wind changed and blew stronger, blowing the sketch I had placed on the coffee table away.

I forgot to put a weight on it.

I went to pick it up and turned to find Lucas slumped on his desk.

‘Lucas!’

I rushed over and put my hand on his neck to check his pulse. I called his name while checking his complexion.

‘Lucas, are you alright?’

‘My body is so hot.’

His pulse was racing and his face was red. I wondered if he had a fever. I wish he’s said something earlier.

‘I’ll call a brigade member.’

‘It’s fine. I know the cause.’ Lucas caught my arm as I was about to leave. He pulled me closer and stroked my cheek with the back of his hand. His eyes looked watery. Even if he said he was okay, he was short of breath.

‘Do you have medicine in your office?’

‘Mira, I want to drink water.’

‘I’ll get your some.’

I went to pick up the jug and refilled his glass. Where could medicine be in this office? I wondered as I handed him the glass, but he pushed it away. Did he not want this water? What should I do?

‘Give me a drink, Mira?’

Was he so weak he couldn’t lift his glass?

I placed my hand across his back to lift him up. His shirt was damp from sweat.

‘Lucas, drink.’

‘You give me a drink.’

Huh?

Something is off here. The way he was talking, the look in his eyes, the hand stroking my hips.

‘Mira…?’ he looked up at me like a cute child begging for sweets. While stroking my hips, he poked my bottom lip with his other hand. He wasn’t sick. Well, kind of not sick. I have experienced this myself only a few days ago.

‘Lucas, did you get hit by Geist’s pheromones?’

Lucas chuckled sexily.

‘I’m so hot, there is nothing I can do about it…the best medicine is you.’ He said as he grabbed me.

‘Hold on a moment!’

‘Why? Aren’t you hot too?’

Did he think I was hot from the pheromones?

‘No, Lucas, we’re in your office.’

‘It is pretty naughty.’

Lucas grabbed me and suddenly I could see the ceiling. We were on the floor. He held my hands over my head while he slipped his other hand under my dress and stroked my skin. My legs were trapped under Lucas and I couldn’t move.

‘Lucas, hey! Ahn~’

‘Mira, are you thirsty?’ he asked before picking up the jug. He drank from the spout, roughly wiped his lips before leaning down to kiss me.

‘Hn!’

I can drink it myself, Lucas. He forced me to drink water with his kiss, teasing me with his tongue. It couldn’t be helped, it was true I was so hot.

‘Someone will come,’ I protested.

‘No one will come.’ He countered through kisses, sucking my lips and teasing me. The subtle stimulus burned my body. It was so strange, this heat seemed to be coming from within my body, my abdomen felt like it were pulsing like a heart.

‘Ah~’

‘Mira, I want to do it a little.’

‘Not in the office.’

‘Just a little~’

‘No, it wouldn’t be a little and you know it.’

The breeze blowing on my skin made me feel sensitive, stimulating me. The windows are open!

Lucas kissed my face and down my neck.

‘This button is in the way.’ He said when he got to the collar of my dress. I couldn’t resist him because he was holding my hands. He dextrously removed the button, underneath was a more fashionable bra unlike yesterday. Of, and the hickeys…

Lucas found one he had made, and sucked it again.

‘Don’t suck so hard.’

‘I have to put more of my mark.’

‘You don’t have to do this.’

‘I have to.’

‘Lucas, oh~’

‘Mira, please, look only at me.’ He said before licking me, a chase wolfe sign of affection. He pulled down my bra and sucked on my breast.

Ah~ If you do that so suddenly…!

‘Lucas, Lou~ it’s not good.’

‘You’re being loud.’

‘Then don’t do that.’

‘But your nipples are getting harder. Trembling like you want me.’ (Zuben: Trembling like free standing jelly on a moving train?)

It was true, but I was so embarrassed I looked away from Lucas. My nipples were throbbing wanting him to touch, to suck, to kiss. What should I do?

‘Well, maybe a little…’ I replied.

‘Hmm? Do you want it?’

‘I think it because of the pheromones.’

Otherwise, there was no way to think of doing this in the office. And the last time, I was drunk and less inhibited. This time my mind is still clear, but I couldn’t resist Lucas.

‘Lucas, just a little…’

‘Only if you promise me you wouldn’t be with anyone other than me.’ He said before gently nipping at one of my nipples.

Oh~ that felt so good.

‘There is no one except you.’

His blue eyes were a little scary as he licked my nipples, then he let me go.

‘Baffling…’ Lucas muttered, ‘A heart doesn’t move the way one wants. You’re not a thing, but I want you to be mine and mine alone. That’s no good.’ he rubbed his forehead against my neck, seemingly in apology, while groping my breasts and fondling my hips.

This soft tone tickled my heart, but my body was aroused.

‘Lucas, stop this…ah~’

‘Mira, touch here.’ He said taking my hand to place it between his legs. I swallowed involuntarily. I could feel his fierce hardness through his trousers

‘Even though I know this isn’t the right place, I really want to do it.’ He said guiding my hand up and down his heat, and I could feel him quiver and get harder and bigger.

‘Mira, more…’ he said unbuckling his belt and opening his fly so I could touch him directly. He was blazing hot in my hand, and the tip was wet.

‘I want to be inside, Mira. Please.’

‘No, you cant.’

‘Okay. I’ll let you lead. You do what ever you want. I’m so hot I can’t think.’

He lay back and his manhood was standing up, bouncing gently. Great, this is more like it, I could kiss him.

I lowered my head and looked up at Lucas, his expression was as expected.

‘It’s only a little…’ I said over him.

‘Hmm~’

It looks like he felt it just with my breath over him. Just as I opened my mouth, there was a loud knock.

‘Are you alright in there, brigade leader?’

Maybe someone heard my scream and came to see the situation. (Zuben: They took a while. They’re obviously trying to spoil the show)

Ho-hold on a minute, they can’t come in right now!
