Chapter 28: Tingles and Sparks

Tingles and Sparks 

The familiar scent of my room filled the air. It was never this strong before. I sniff the air and a strong smell of forest and mint mingled along with my scent. I remember it was the scent before I passed out last night. It smells really good that I want to open my mouth and maybe taste it. It's making my mouth water.

"Kyra?" Kahit hindi nakamulat ang mga mata ko, alam na alam ko kung kanino nagmamay-ari ang boses na iyon. I grunt and slowly opened my eyes to see a very woried Hunter who's sitting beside me. He's caressing my cheeks with his thumb.

"Are you okay?" tanong ni Hunter habang hinahaplos parin ang pisngi ko. Bigla namang bumalik sa akin ang mga nangyari kagabi. It's my birthday and I still remember the pain from shifting.

I moaned when I felt tiny sparks where he's touching me. It feels really great. The tingles are much stronger than before. But something is strange. Something surfaced deep inside me like another person trying to take over me giving me a big urge to jumped over at Hunter.

"Mate." I whispered. That was the word, the person inside me kept mumbling over and over.

Hunter grinned from ear to ear. "Yes, I'm your mate." He's looking right through me, no not me, at the person inside me. It took another minute to realize its my own wolf inside me. Like another entity with its own intelligence and attitude.

"You smell so good, Hunter." Inangat ko ang aking kamay at hinaplos siya sa pisngi. Hunter responds and leaned closer to my touch.

"Ayos ka na ba? Wala bang masakit?" He asked concerned.

"Yeah. I'm just a little sore. But don't tell me, ganun lagi kasakit every time na magshi-shift ako." Umiiling kong sambit.

"No it won't hurt anymore after several shifts." He answered chuckling. Inangat ko ang sarili at sumandal sa headboard ng kama. Namula naman ang pisngi ko nang makitang may suot na akong damit.

Sa pagkaka-alam ko kasi, napupunit ang suot na damit kapag nagbabagong anyo. Ang ibig sabihin wala din akong damit nang bumalik ako sa anyong tao. Nanlaki ang mga mata ko nang marealize ito. Napansin ito ni Hunter.

"Don't worry. Hindi naman ako ang nag suot ng damit sayo, as much as I wanted to, your mother wouldn't let me." He said joking. I pouted and slapped his chest earning a laugh from him.

"How about when I shifted back to human form? Did you see my... I mean... Ugh! You know what I'm trying to say, just answer the damn question!" I said frustrated. Just thingking of Hunter seeing me naked makes me squirm away from embarrassment.

"But you didn't asked anything. Pano ako sasagot?" Nagbibirong tanong niya. Pinalo ko ulit ang dibdib niya at hindi man lang siya nasaktan, mas lalo pa ngang lumakas ang tawa nito. I glared at him and he stopped.

He cleared his throat, "Sorry, I really like seeing you blush. I didn't saw you naked. Nang mahimatay ka, nakapag-shift ka na sa pagiging isang lobo. I carried you to your room and covered you in blanket until you shifted back." Pagpapaliwanag niya. Nakahinga ako ng maluwag ng marinig ito. Mataman lang na nakatitig si Hunter sa akin. Kumunot ang nuo ko.

"Hindi lang ako makapaniwalang isa kang white wolf." Sambit ni Hunter. I remember seeing white fur in my paws before I blacked out.

"Bakit? Ano naman kung isa akong white wolf?" Nagtatakang tanong ko.

"There's only one white wolf born in a century. White wolves are very peculiar. They are extraordinary. They possessed certain attraction to unmated wolves." Hunter clench his fist.

"Attraction?"

"Yes, you're now a white wolf which means your scent is stronger and very alluring that attracts male wolves. But I won't let them come near you."
