Emerald Moon Manor

Belle snorted and then gave a burst of speed and leapt a fallen log nipping him right in the butt as she went past. Ha that would show him for being a show off! She thought to herself as she went under a log this time instead of over. She howled as she ran, the sound echoing off the trees and she ran even faster as the joy of the night filled her.

Andrian yelped and leaned forward, he turned around to see where she was but she was running around from him again. He panted like an excited dog and started howling as he got on four paws and started running towards her. As a big dog, he was probably a bit faster now he can leap and take big steps. So he caught up with Bell easily.

Belle looked at him as she stood on the cliff, the sun was just starting to rise over the trees below. She loved the view but her attention went now to Andrian so see if he was shifting back or if it would be one of those days where it took a little after the sun was almost up all the way.

It was early in the morning, Andrian had just finished changing in the bushes. He knelt there on the ground for a minute as he tries to catch his breath again, his werewolf days makes him tired and weary. A sigh escaped his lips as he dropped his head and got back up on his feet with only his jeans which he still wore after changing into a werewolf; of course the pants were invisable, it would've looked stupid to see a werewolf in jeans. He started stretching and made his way to the cliff where Bell was. "Hey, love," he smiled, weakly as he walked up behind her and wrapped his arm around her, pulling her to his chest

Belle shifted as he walked out of the bushes and let him pull her to his chest. "A close call love, those poor deer would not have stood a chance. But I got you away nothing was killed this night, at least not by you my love." She said as she closed her eyes, tired from the long night.

"Thanks love," smiled Andrian as he wrapped his arm around her and kissed her gently on her head. "Your the best you know that," he told her as he looked into her eyes and pushed a strand of hair around the lock of her ears and kissed her, lightly on her lips. He was graceful that she was there for him, he hated to have been responsible to have killed somebody or an animal. Andrian couldn't bear with the guilt of killing an innocent animal, luckily he had Bell to help him and pull him away from those animal no matter how hard it was to get him, she would never give up. "I love you, so much."

Belle looked up at him and smiled, "I love you too Andrian, very very much." She took his hand then and turned back towards the manor. "Come lets go home and bathe and eat something before curling up into our massive bed surrounded by silk sheets and watch some television." She said as they began heading home.

"Alright, sweety," Andrian smiled at her and started walking back to the manor, holding her hands along the way. "Sounds like a plan," he chuckled as he lifted her off the ground and started carrying her all the way back. "Sorry, beautiful girls shouldn't have to walk when they are tired," he flashed his cute, devilish grinned at her and looked into her eyes.

Belle laughed and wrapped her arms around his neck laying her head on his shoulder. "Thank you love." She said. She liked being in his arms but the rhythm of his movements and her exhaustion combined lulled her to sleep. Soon she was fast asleep in the warmth and safety of her beloved husband's arms.

Andrian only responded with a smile and continued to walk her back home. He sighed of happiness as he took a deep breath and took in her beautiful, intoxicating perfume which smelt of rose and lilac mixture that he always loved. As he walked home, he started to realize how much he missed holding her in his arm and kissing her. It felt like a lifetime, he was so preoccupied with his work; he almost forgot what it felt like to touch her and have her in his arm. Finally, Andrian arrived at the manor and opened the door to their house and as soon as they got in he started to head up the stairs and lay gently on their bed before crawling in afterwards. "Home Sweet home," he sighed looking at Bell, pulling her to his chest and wrapping his arm around her as he watched her sleep.
