Patient Mates(20)

Hunter attached a saddle to Missy and helped Kira climb up. His hand lingered at her waist for far too long in Gabe’s opinion.

Gabe growled lowly as his beast went wild. The younger wolf straightened up a little and reluctantly dragged his eyes from Kira. He mumbled something and disappeared.

Kira encouraged Missy and started trotting round the yard. “This is wonderful!”

Gabe beamed encouragingly before paling at seeing the monster Hunter was leading toward him. The jet black horse was almost twice as big as Missy. He could swear the thing was snorting derisively at him. It looked like a creature one of the four horsemen would be comfortable riding!

“And here’s your horse!” Said Hunter smugly. “His name’s Beelzebub.”

Gabe’s eyes bulged a little as his wolf snarled. Horses and wolves weren’t generally a good fit. “Beelzebub?!”

“Course if you don’t think you can handle him I can get you one of the ponies we use for the kid’s riding lessons. We have a nice little pony called Old Glue if you’d prefer…”

Kira looked at him expectantly. “This one will be fine.” Gabe ground out through gritted teeth.

Warily Gabe gave the horse a wide berth before gingerly grabbing the saddle and quickly hauling himself on top. He hoped that just getting on the horse was the hard part. Beelzebub huffed but didn’t try to buck him off, that was something at least.

“Well you two have fun.” Hunter slapped Beelzebub on the rump. The animal whinnied and set off at a thunderous pace down the wooded trail with Gabe hanging on for dear life.

“Wait for me!” Called Kira spurring Missy to follow.

Gabe groaned as the trees whizzed by and he rocked in the saddle, feeling every lump and bump. Kira marveled at how fast he was going, she’d assumed Gabe didn’t have much experience but damn he was speeding away!

Gabe fumbled trying to hold the reins and let out a stream of curses as he saw they were approaching a fallen log. The horse would just jump over right?! He braced himself and closed his eyes as the horse whinnied loudly and screeched to a halt, throwing Gabe clear over his head. The wolf hit the ground in front of the log with a resounding thump.

“Gabe!” Screamed Kira.

She pulled Missy to a stop and dismounted, quickly running over to Gabe who was squirming on the ground. “Oh my god! Are you hurt?”

He smiled wryly as his wolf whined pathetically. “Just my pride.” He tried to stand and groaned slumping back to the ground. “No scratch that, my arms, legs, back and neck are also hurt.”

“Oh poor baby.”

She helped pull him over to the side of the trail and leant him against a tree. She then went to secure both horses.

“He did that on purpose!” Said Gabe bitterly. His beast agreed whole heartedly. Sneaky horse.

“He’s just an animal, it was an accident.”

Beelzebub was neighing and chuffing at Kira whilst giving him the stink eye. Gabe could swear the damn horse was laughing at him!

Kira came back and dropped down next to him, softly threading her fingers through his hair. “Have you ever ridden before?”

“Erm no… I assumed I could.”

Kira started giggling and before long she was letting out shoulder shaking guffaws. “Awww you’re so funny.”

Gabe harrumphed. “Yeah I got that thanks.” The aches and pains were slowly fading. Thank god he hadn’t broken anything.

“Where does it hurt?” She asked a little huskily.

Wordlessly Gabe pointed to his forehead. Kira planted a delicate kiss there. He moved his finger to his eyebrow and she repeated the action. He touched his ear, his other eyebrow, his nose and his chin before finally reaching his mouth.

Gently Kira pressed her mouth to his. He nibbled her bottom lip asking permission to enter. She parted her lips and his tongue darted in her mouth eagerly twirling with hers. She moaned into his mouth and pressed herself against him with more urgency. The twin orbs of her breasts pushed against him and he groaned as his arousal urgently grew.

Breaking the kiss she panted lightly. She was supposed to be taking things slowly. Her wolf however was practically purring and begging for attention from the male wolf. Kira inwardly huffed. Tramp.

Gabe took the opportunity to kiss her neck and nip at her silky skin. His hands roamed over her luscious body and he maneuvered her round his body so she was straddling him. She arched her back, crushing her breasts against him as she delighted in the feel of his mouth on her skin.

Gabe trailed feathery kisses down her chest. His fingers sought her shirt buttons and opened them. He waited to see if she would object between each button but she was lost in the delicious sensations his mouth was creating. She could feel her sex moistening and ground herself down on him.
