Chapter 0441 Nina The music was loud around us, and the firelight cast shadows of my dancing friends on the walls of the cabins. We were all thoroughly drunk, and for the first tin a long time, I was glad to be. Smiling, I stood up on my tiptoes and kissed Enzo, and when our lips parted he cupped my cheek with his warm hand and gazed into my eyes.
"Hey," he said, taking one of my braids between his fingers and looking intently at it in an almost bashful way," wanna go for a run?" "Now?" I chuckled. "In our wolf forms?" Enzo nodded. He seemed serious, and although I was probably too drunk to run in a straight line and hated leaving my friends behind, the thought of feeling the wind through my fur, even briefly, did sound nice. I nodded silently and let Enzo leadaway, behind the cabins, where we shifted out of sight of our classmates who had forgotten that werewolves existed.
Once we shifted, Enzo shot off into the night like a bolt of lightning. I had a hard tkeeping up with him in my drunken state, but I couldn't help but laugh to myself as we went on a mad dash through the woods like two feral creatures. The half-moon above us cast just enough of a glow through the trees to see where I was going, and with my night vision, it was no trouble at all. Finally, I caught up to Enzo and we ran together for a while, looping back and forth and around the trees until we were out of breath.
When we finally stopped, we found ourselves in a small clearing at the top of a shallow hill. As I shifted back, I realized that I recognized this place; it was the splace that I once went to with Luke one night, many nights ago. We had sat on this very hill and talked, and it was when I realized that Luke was a friend to me.

Enzo was behind me, but he wasn't standing. He was down on one knee and he was holding something small in his hand. I felt my heart stop as I looked down at him, taking in his flushed cheeks and sparkling eyes. This was no prank; he was proposing to me.
"Nina," Enzo said, his voice low as the sounds of the party echoed through the forest around us, "I don't have any sort of long speech for you. I'm sorry that this isn't more grand, and there aren't candles or flower petals. But tonight, I knew that I couldn't wait any longe-" "Yes," I blurted out excitedly. I immediately clamped my hand over my mouth and watched as Enzo stifled an incredulous laugh.
"You didn't letfinish," he said, smirking.
"You said that you didn't have a long speech," I replied. I took a few steps toward him, and as the ring in his hand cinto view and I saw the stone glittering in the moonlight, I felt tears beginning to well up in my eyes. "And I don't want candles or flower petals or grand gestures. Yes, I want to marry you. That's it." Enzo stared up atfor a few long moments. It felt as though everything else around us fell away, leaving just the two of us floating together in a black void. Only when Enzo suddenly stood and kissedintensely did I feel as though I was returning to my body, and that was solidified when he firmly took my shaking hand and pushed the ring onto my finger.
For a few moments, I stared teary-eyed down at the beautiful ring on my finger. It was simple, but it was perfect. The stone was a fire opal rather than a diamond, which only madelove it even more.
Suddenly, I heard a particularly loud blare coming from the music down by the bonfire, and that shovedfully back into my body. Laughing, I threw my arm's around Enzo's neck and kissed him passionately, causing him to stumble backwards out of surprise and fall onto his back, onto the hard ground. He grunted as he fell, and I quickly pushed myself up onto my hands and knees as I straddled him and looked at him worriedly.
"Are you oka-"I began, but was quickly cut off by Enzo grabbing my face and pullingback down to kissagain.
We smiled against each other's lips as we kissed. I felt so full of love; it felt as though there was a measuring cup inside ofthat was overflowing with love for Enzo, for my mate. It had been that way for stime... But now, we were going to be married and I couldn't be happier.
Neither of us wanted to return to the party just yet. We wanted to be together in the forest, just the two of us. I felt Enzo wrap his arms aroundas we kissed and he stood easily, carryingover to a more thickly wooded area for sprivacy. He setdown and hastily pulled his jacket off, then threw it down on the ground to act as a barrier between our skin and the forest floor before he suddenly pushedup against a tree and began to tear my clothes off.

We fumbled together in the darkness, ripping at each other's clothes like a couple of animals until we both stood .O naked and out of breath, taking in each other's bodies. The cold winter air bit at my skin, but I didn't care. As a werewolf, it only excitedeven more, and as I looked at his chiseled muscles glistening in the moonlight, I felt the wolf stir inside of me.
Enzo, noticing this, grinned and wrapped his arms aroundagain. We fell onto his jacket together in a pile of warmth and hands, lips and tongues. He laiddown on the ground and pushed my legs gently until the tenders apart until the tendons on my inner thighs appeared, and then he began to kiss along my thighs, letting his lips warm my cold skin. When his lips finally traveled inward and lingered on my pussy, I could no longer hold in the gasps and moans that were bubbling up inside my throat. While he licked and kissedthere, I felt my back arch away from the ground, and I tangled my fingers in his curly hair, pushing him harder intountil I was certain that I would con his face.
But before I could, he suddenly stopped and moved up between my legs, smirking and wiping his mouth with the back of his hand. I felt a sudden filling sensation as he pushed himself in, and together we erupted into a volcano of movement and passion. X Our hot breaths rose into the cold air in little white clouds of steam. During those tender moments, with the moon above us, I felt as though I could stay there with him forever.
As Enzo and I moved together and becone in the forest, I was so happy to not only call him my mate, but also my fiancee.
And when we finally returned to the party and announced our engagement to our friends, all I could see was his smiling face abovewith the half-moon behind him.
