Permission

Zion was pacing back and forth. He could hear the sound of the shower in the bathroom where Amaris was taking a bath. She told him she wasn't ready to do more than kissing and he promised he wouldn't do anything without her permission.

'Why are you acting like a gentleman towards her? You weren't like that before.' His wolf asked.

'I told you she's different. It wasn't just lust that I felt about her. Like what she said, it feels like we knew each other. Her scent, her touch, everything about her is different. I know you can't figure it out now, but I think she's the one.' He explained.

'And what if you're wrong again? You understand your sister's point, right? What if it happens again? Are you willing to risk everything for a Terran?'

'Then how can you explain her scent? You lost your sense of smell a hundred years ago. You were unable to smell anyone, especially your mate, ever since that day, but why were you able to recognize her scent?' He asked his wolf.

It wasn't his wolf's fault that he couldn't smell anyone. It was part of his curse given by the Moon Goddess, that his wolf would never smell his mate for a thousand years.

'Gardenia. It was our mate's favorite flower. Have you forgotten about it? The place where we always played was in a secret flower field. It was full of gardenia. Remember what she said? That flower was even more fragrant at night. Maybe that's one reason.'

He wasn't convinced. No one can break the curse given to him by the Moon Goddess, even the most scented flower.

He was sighing deeply when the bathroom door opened. He was surprised to see Amaris wearing just a short robe. She was blushing while pulling the end of the robe to cover her legs. He looked at her from head to toe and swallowed his saliva when he saw her smooth, slender and perfectly toned legs.

"I don't have a change of clothes. I was wondering if you could lend me your shirt?" She asked with a flushed face.

He took a deep breath again, scratching his head then walked towards the walk in closet. He didn't notice that Amaris followed him.

"Your room really looks like an apartment." She commented.

He was startled when she suddenly talked. He averted his eyes when he saw her standing by the door, looking so sexy.

"You know you're making me lose my control. If you walk like that in here, I might just grab you and pin you down on the bed." He said while looking at his clothes.

He was just staring at the pile of clothes, but his mind was full of her. Just seeing her wearing something so short, knowing that there was nothing beneath the bath robe, was making his body excited.

"Hmm. I actually thought that you would barge into the bathroom and join me, but I guess you really have a lot of control." She said in a seductive voice.

She was already beside him when she said those words. She picked one of his shirts then winked at him before turning her back to walk out of the closet.

He didn't expect that she would say that. Does that mean she was actually waiting for him to do something? He was confused and rushed outside to follow her.

"Ari!" He called then grabbed her hand.

She turned to him, looking so flushed. She was embarrassed to make the first move but she was really expecting something from him.

"I want to touch you. Will you allow me?" He asked.

She bit her lips while looking at him. Her heart was beating so fast and pounding loudly. She couldn't understand why she was so attracted to Zion. But she wanted more than just lust.

With her three boyfriends in the past, she didn't feel anything like this. She was still worried that she might forget her feelings in the morning like what happened to her past relationships. She was hoping that she won't forget this time and Zion would remain in her heart.

"Zion, if I agree. If I tell you I want you, too. What will happen to us tomorrow?"

He reached out his hand, brushing her cheeks with his fingers while staring into her face and memorizing every detail.

"I will do everything for you. If tomorrow you forget this feeling, this moment, if you can't remember my touch then I will make you remember. If that's the only way for me to stay in your heart, I would be willing to do it everyday."

She took a deep breath then started walking backwards.

He frowned and started losing his confidence. But he was willing to wait for her until she accepted him. His eyes widened when she slowly pulled the robe tie. She stared into his eyes letting out a rapid breathing while she undressed herself in front of him.

She let the robe slide down to her body, dropping it to the floor. She was completely naked in front of him. She wasn't sure if her decision was the right one but she wanted to feel Zion's warmth.

Zion rushed into her and without a word, carried her on the bed. She suddenly felt embarrassed when he looked at her from head to toe. She tried to pull the sheets to cover herself but Zion stopped her.

"You're perfect. Like a goddess." He commented.

He stood up and started taking off his clothes. She gasped when she saw his hardened flesh. She wasn't so ignorant about the opposite sex's thing, but she was surprised to see how big it was.

"Zion." She called.

He knew she was worried and scared. It was her first time after all. And not to brag, his dick was really bigger than normal guys. He wasn't an alpha for nothing.

"Don't worry. Let's take this slow. I won't do anything you don't like. If you want me to stop, just tell me okay?" He said in a reassuring voice.

She nodded and waited for his next move. He joined her on the bed, positioning himself on top of her.
