Phoenix Maplewood The Hazards of Love [M]

So bad at these omg omg omg.

If anyone had asked Tavi prior to her days in the maplewood if she could see herself as the other woman, she'd have laughed in their face and gone on with her life. Had they told her point-blank that she'd be making her own way, a trusted confidant of a pack she was not in any way related to by blood, she would have snorted and probably gotten in to a fight with whoever was spouting nonsense. Somehow all of these things had happened - were happening - and Tavi wasn't at all phased by it.

She enjoyed her place among the maplewolves, and even coveted what brief moments of Reek she could get. It was a friendship. Or maybe it had been a friendship; as he raised himself across her, holding tight to her hips, she wondered with a fleeting thought about what they were now — but there was no time for labels or contemplation.

They were together in a new way. He seemed to know what to do, and so Tavi let him — for all her playfulness, she was still an inexperienced lover, and could only brace herself as he embraced her. The ensuing reaction of their bodies together caused a wave of ecstasy to crawl gut-first through her body; and though she tensed with a sudden apprehension, Tavi soon relaxed, and they rocked together until exhaustion overwhelmed them both.
