HIIIII we missed you a lot around here. Can you please write super clingy Paul?

i missed all of you!!!!

"don't move," paul mumbled into the pillow, half asleep but he still managed to keep a pretty tight grip around you as he pulled you into his side.

the angle itself was quite awkward with paul laying on his stomach, one arm tossed haphazardly over your figure as you attempted to get out of bed. although you could generally find paul spooning you or engaging in a more traditional form of cuddling, after 8 hours of sleep, paul almost always made his way back to his stomach as he slept. though, he always managed to keep some body part of his on you. you weren't entirely sure if it was some sort of security thing for him or just a habit he'd developed since dating you but it currently didn't make much of a difference as he seemed pretty intent on keeping you in bed with him.

"paul," you giggled his name, rolling onto your other side so you could face him. paul, still half asleep with his face buried in the pillow, seized the opportunity and pulled you even closer to his side. you laughed again as he got one hand firmly wedged around your side, resting on your ribcage, "it's been like 10 hours since we've gotten up, i gotta eat," you mused, running one hand up his arm and neck to thread your fingers through his inky hair.

paul grumbled something incoherent into the pillow, and before you had a second to ask what he was talking about, he was lifting his head to look over at you, "food?" he repeated back to you and you let out another giggle, laughing as you scratched at his scalp.

"preferably lots of it. i'm starving," you joked, squealing when he tightened his grip on your side to roll you over to the other side of him, "paul!" you laughed, moving to get up again but he just squeezed you again, not-so-subtly letting you know he definitely didn't want you going anywhere anytime soon.

"i've got some in the nightstand," his voice was still raspy as he woke himself up, one hand still firmly around you while the other one reached around blindly at your nightstand for a moment before he latched onto whatever food stash he apparently kept in your bedroom without telling you.

"a granola bar?" you asked when he handed it to you, "how long has that been in there for? and why are you keeping food in here? the kitchen is like-" you started but your ramblings were cut short as paul rolled onto his side to wrap both arms around you, pulling you tightly into his chest.

"don't worry about it princess," he mumbled against your hair, "don't gotta get up now, yea?" he added after a moment, smiling to himself when he heard your resigned sigh followed by the sound of the granola bar unwrapping.

[sethsclearwater]

congrats on 5k!!!! 💗 can i request a blurb for reader x paul? one of my headcannons is that even though he is known as a hothead, he becomes a lot more introverted and quiet around his imprint? he finally found someone to calm him down and bring out the gentle side of him! ⭐️🙏😙

i am OBSESSED with this omg

"you know you're lucky you didn't try and pull this shit before he met princess over there," embry laughed as he sat down on one of the wooden chairs at your kitchen table.

you rolled your eyes, a quiet laugh also escaping your lips as you wiped your hands off on one of the fading kitchen towels, looking over to where your imprinter leaned up against the kitchen counter only a few feet away from you.

paul wore a rather disgruntled expression on his face, a far cry from the boisterous personality you had seen him with when you two first started dating.

"i guess you're right," quil grumbled, and, for a moment you'd thought he was agreeing with embry but he quickly proved you wrong, "he was a total psycho before he met her. lucky thing she sticks around," he mused, looking over to your imprinter again, eyes desperately searching for any sort of reaction out of him.

defeat quickly clouded his features and you just let out another breathy laugh. although you weren't entirely sure why quil had decided to spend the afternoon attempting to rile paul up, you were pleased to see paul had reacted just as you'd hoped he would, "you're so good," you mused, stepping over to your imprinter whose expression immediately softened when he took you in.

"oh my god he's her good boy," quil groaned, both him and embry laughing at his comment. you just rolled your eyes, squealing when paul slid his hands over your waist, easily manhandling you over his shoulder.

"i'd get out unless you wanna find out who's really in charge here!" paul called as he headed straight to your bedroom, your laughter echoing through the hallway as quil grumbled something about paul having a personality transplant while embry reassured him it was for the better.

[sethsclearwater]

Hiii I’m so happy you’re back!!

Can you please write something to do with dry humping involving paul (I feel so embarrassed writing this😭)

PLEASE LMAO😭😭

"c'mere," paul's voice was heavy as he rolled the two of you over, settling between your thighs. one broad hand slid up your side, quickly finding your breasts as he got to work massaging and groping through the thin fabric of your t-shirt.

while his other hand knotted in your hair, he tugged your head to the side to expose your neck, allowing him to get to work kissing and suckling the sensitive skin there. a quiet moan left your lips, your head falling back against the pillows as your eyes fell closed.

"how much time do we have until we need to leave?" you asked breathlessly, running one hand up paul's bare back until you could thread your fingers through his hair and gently massage at his scalp.

you didn't see it but paul was rolling his eyes before he lifted his head so he could meet your gaze, "why are you thinking about that right now?" he asked, lips curling into a faint smile as he worked to contain his laugh at the blush that quickly crept up on your cheeks.

"jus' didn't wanna be late," you whispered, features softening as you looked up at your imprinter, slowly getting your breathing under control again now that you had a break from his incessant touching.

"won't be late," he reassured, though you weren't even remotely convinced, already knowing paul was notorious for prioritizing sex with you over just about everything else in the world so a bonfire at sam and emily's place definitely wasn't beating what you figured you two were about to do.

the smile he had been working to contain quickly broke out on his face as he watched you run through everything in your head, "5 minutes," paul conceded after a moment, chuckling when you went to sit up but he slid his hand up to your shoulder to gently push you back down.

"5 minutes is plenty of time to work with princess," he mused cockily, smiling even deeper when you conceded with a small nod, relaxing back into the bed as you decided you were interested in seeing what exactly he was planning on doing with the limited amount of time.

he didn't waste any time, diving back down to suckle at your neck and massage your breasts again but this time, he began rocking his hips against yours. despite his sweatpants and your jeans getting in the way of doing what he really wanted, it felt good.

the lacey fabric of your underwear pressed up against your clit as he pressed his hips into yours, the steady pressure combined with his hips rocking providing the perfect amount of stimulation to have you letting out low moans within a few moments.

"paul please-" you whined, fingers tightening in his inky hair as he chuckled against your collarbone, clearly proud of how quickly he managed to get you to change your mind about prioritizing getting to emily's.

"please what princess?" paul mused, lifting his head from the crook of your neck so he could look down at you and take you in, not stopping the way he was rocking his hips against yours.

a low whine escaped your lips as you struggled to find the words you needed, the eye contact with paul only adding to your difficulty as he seemed to be pretty proud of how he was working you, "wanna feel you," you managed to get out, whining when he just chuckled and shook his head.

"gotta get to emily's, remember?" he teased, rather abruptly stopping his movements against your hips, his hand giving your breast one last playful squeeze before he was dropping that hand as well.

"paul-" you started and he laughed again when he saw the panic covering your features, your mind changing rather quickly about the whole thing when you were reminded of just how good he always managed to make you feel.

he quickly pressed a cocky kiss to your lips before he was getting out from between your thighs, "relax princess, we've got all night, yea?" he smiled, taking your hand into his so he could help get you up and ready for emily's.

[sethsclearwater]

How would the pack react to finding their imprint asleep either at one of the other imprints house or somewhere and someone is being really loud and they don't want their imprint to wake up because they know they have trouble sleeping at night

love this! i did a similar one for paul a while back and you can find that one linked here but i thought it would be fun to do one for seth too so here you go!

seth's touch was featherlight as he traced his fingers up and down your side, watching as you got some much needed sleep. for the first time in nearly a week, you looked at peace as you slept curled up under the covers of the plaid sheets of his old bedroom. despite the fact that the two of you had moved into your own place on the res, you still regularly found yourself at sue's house throughout the week.

"seth!" he'd heard jared calling his name from outside before jared even entered the house, seth's hearing and jared's unusually loud voice making it easy to hear him. though, this knowledge never made jared any quieter, and seth was starting to believe he made himself louder just to spite everyone.

he leaned down to press his lips to your temple before he slid his hand out from under your shirt, smiling to himself when you whined and rolled over, clearly already missing his touch, "i'll be right back," his voice was a whisper as he reassured before he was getting up to go figure out what jared wanted.

"seth!" jared's voice was somehow louder this time as seth quickly and quietly closed the bedroom door behind him as he headed downstairs to the front door where jared was quite impatiently waiting for him.

"i'm coming," he rolled his eyes, his voice a normal level as he was apparently one of the only members of the pack to have figured out that they didn't need to yell for them to hear each other.

he pulled the door open to reveal jared cameron who couldn't have looked less bothered by seth's annoyance, "paul said you made some banana bread yesterday," he explained, his usual goofy smile on his face.

seth, an individual who was generally considered to be one of the most patient members of the pack, just rolled his eyes again, "this couldn't have been a text?" he asked, a quiet laugh leaving his lips as he turned around to go get some of the said banana bread. before he could get to the kitchen though, he turned back around, "wait outside - you nearly woke y/n up yelling like that," his voice was a bit more stern, waiting until jared nodded and saluted him like an idiot before seth was heading back into the kitchen.

"yes sir!" despite the warning less than 3 seconds prior, jared managed to forget to lower his voice, something he quickly realized when seth sucked in a deep breath, making haste of packaging up some banana bread for him so he could get him out of these as quickly as possible, "sorry sir!" jared quickly apologized, the sarcasm still managing to drip through his voice despite the now lowered volume.

seth did his best to fight his smile, too used to jared's antics to get mad at him for them at this point, "just take the bread and go please," a quiet, breathy laugh left his lips as he handed jared the wrapped bread.

both boys exchanged smiles, "i didn't totally wake her up, did i?" jared asked, significantly lowering his voice as he asked about you, clearly understanding and sharing seth's concern for your recent lack of sleep.

"didn't totally wake her up," seth reassured and jared's smile widened, clearly happy his regularly scheduled boisterous activities didn't completely ruin your sleep.

"that's brilliant - thanks for the bread!" his volume increased again, though not to its original level, just enough that it had seth rolling his eyes with a laugh and shutting the door.

"anytime cameron," he reassured quietly before he was heading back upstairs to the bedroom to check on you.

much to his delight, he found you still sound asleep on the bed. he padded over to you, pulling back the covers just enough to get under them with you and pull you close to his chest, "promised i'd be right back," he whispered, pressing his lips to your hair before settling into the bed.

chapter two | divas & vertigo

synopsis: you wake up to find not one, but two men in your grandmother’s house and attempt to make sense of what you saw before you fainted.

warnings: paul being a diva, reader gets a nosebleed

word count: 4.2k

[masterlist] [previous] [next]

“you panicked, and the best idea you had was to kidnap her?” 

“obviously i didn’t get that far. she’s still here, isn’t she?” 

coming to your senses a bit, you winced, cracking your eyes open in a weak attempt to figure out what was happening. your last memory had been of the man in your backyard turning into a giant wolf after you chewed him out for stripping - none of that made any sense, though.

you took a lot of pride in being known as a patient, rarely ill-tempered individual so you were beyond confused on how and why you were screaming at a stranger for something so random. the whole thing seemed beyond your comprehension, and you let out a low groan as you rolled onto your back.

“hey, hey, don’t move too much-” an unfamiliar voice came as a man stepped over to you, standing over you. from his eyes alone, you were immediately able to discern that he must’ve been sue clearwater’s son, seth. he had those same kind eyes she had, a near identical shade of chocolate brown coloring his orbs, “take a few sips of this for me, okay? it’s just to help get your blood sugar up,” he reassured, guiding what you’d assumed was a bottle of gatorade or something of the sorts to your lips so you could take a few sips. 

“there you go,” he cooed, pulling the bottle from your lips once he’d decided you’d swallowed enough, setting it to the side before he was sitting down next to you on the couch in your living room that they must’ve brought you onto after you fainted, “you’re winona’s granddaughter, right?” he asked after a moment, sighing when you only gave him a small nod before you were pushing yourself up onto your elbows despite the pounding in your head. thankfully, that obnoxious buzzing in the back of your mind had subsided enough, and the ache in your hips wasn’t nearly as horrible as it was before you passed out.

you only needed to scan the room for a few seconds before you zeroed in on the man you swore had definitely turned into a wolf just a few minutes ago… or hours… how long had it been? “are you…” your voice trailed off, a frown quickly covering your features as you tried to figure out how you were going to ask him if he was actually some sort of shapeshifter you’d heard of through the legends your grandmother had passed down to you so many years ago. 

everyone who was anyone on the res knew the legends, and you were no exception to the rule, thanks to your grandmother. maybe it was just your mind playing tricks on you. maybe you’d hallucinated the whole thing and were about to make an even bigger fool of yourself than you already were. 

screaming at a random man and then accusing him of being a werewolf? great idea. 

“annoyed? mad? disturbed? upset? bothered?” he responded for you from his place in the armchair across from the couch. even sitting hunched over with his elbows on his knees, he was still larger than life, and the annoyed expression on his face wasn’t exactly making him look any more digestible either. you were surprised you never remembered seeing him around before. he’d have been impossible to miss if you did see him.

“paul-” seth started, an annoyed undertone to his voice that had you thanking any lucky stars you had left that he was on your side. glancing over your shoulder to look at him for just a moment, you found him with a concerned expression on his face. you did feel horrible about screaming at that paul guy, though, and supposed you probably also would be annoyed, mad, disturbed, upset, bothered, and more if some stranger you didn’t know came running outside screaming at you. 

“i’m sorry i yelled at you like that,” your voice came out much softer and quieter than you’d expected, a blush rapidly creeping up on your cheeks as you anxiously waited for his response. 

he rolled his eyes, “attacked is more like it. you-” paul didn’t even get to finish his sentence because seth had gotten up and stepped in between the two of you.

“kitchen. now.” despite his voice still being rather calm (he did have an uncanny way of sounding like a disappointed parent), paul only huffed before getting up and following him into the kitchen, not before shooting you one last disturbed look.

 soon enough, the two of them had stepped down the hall to the kitchen, and you dropped back onto the couch, throwing your arm over your eyes, desperate to ease the ache behind them. you could only make out a few muffled sounds, wishing you could hear more of their conversation as you also tried to figure out what on earth was going on.

paul seemed like he’d be more in charge than seth, but maybe that was just because of how they looked. both men were nearly overbearingly large but paul was built like a tank. not that seth was much smaller, but he carried himself in a lighter way than paul, it seemed like he had his mother’s patience so you’d assumed paul must’ve been pretty freaked out if he was taking orders from seth right now. maybe he was also confused why he turned into a giant wolf in your backyard. 

straining to listen, you sat up again so you could rest your head against the top cushions in an attempt to get a better angle, putting all your energy into understanding what the two men were talking about. you weren’t sure if their voices had gotten louder or if your hearing magically got better, but sure enough, you could hear the two of them. the humming in your mind scaled up again, back to that obnoxious, anxiety-inducing level, but you were determined to hear what they were talking about.

“i don’t think you imprinted on her paul,” seth had started, that same, almost patronizingly calm tone in his voice, “you wouldn’t be so mad if you’d imprinted. or maybe you would i don’t know, you always-” suddenly paul’s voice was cutting over his own just as you felt something trickling down your chin.

“oh you’ve gotta be fucking kidding me right now,” he was groaning, “a fucking nose bleed? since when have any of us gotten nose bleeds? she’s fucking with my head seth,” you could hear one of the boys fumbling around in the kitchen, presumably grabbing something to stop the bleeding with.

reaching a hand up to your own face, you pulled your hand away only to find it also covered in blood. your hearing returned to normal almost immediately, the boys’ voices returning to the same muffled sound they were before you’d focused on it. 

“hey do you have any…” seth’s voice trailed off when he stepped back into the living room, pausing in his tracks when he saw you staring at him with blood dripping down your chin and on your hand, “okay maybe he’s right,” he mumbled, quickly striding over to you, “is it okay if i touch you?” he asked, sitting down next to you on the couch. 

you nodded, watching him warily as he reached both hands up, one tilting your head back while the other pinched your nose. almost immediately, the humming in your mind subsided and the headache vanished, “oh,” you let out a heavy exhale, eyes fluttering closed as you momentarily lost your composure.

“i’ve got you,” seth reassured, removing his hand from the back of your head to wrap around your side, helping hold you up, “do you feel like you’re gonna faint again?” he asked, and you took in one more breath with the pain almost completely gone before opening your eyes. he looked concerned as ever, brows creased in worry as he looked down at you, still dutifully pinching your nose to help stop the blood.

“no…” you trailed off, “it’s just… my headache…” you stumbled over your words, once again unsure how to explain what was going on around you but decided against bringing up the buzzing, figuring he’d absolutely think you were certifiably crazy if you added that in, “it went away when you touched me,” you concluded, eyes searching his for some kind of an answer but he didn’t seem to have one, worry still coating his features. 

“i’ll keep my hand there then, yea?” he suggested, “my mom always said i had magic hands,” he added, an easy smile taking over when you let out a breathy laugh.

the moment didn’t last long, paul’s borderline obnoxiously loud voice returning when he decided to follow seth into the living room, “how long does it take-” you didn’t see him but you’d assumed he’d dramatically dropped his jaw when he saw you and seth, “oh now she’s got one too? i told you seth she’s a fucking witch and she’s gonna get you next now that you’re being nice to her,” he immediately started rambling, stomping over so he was in front of you two again.

despite staring up at the ceiling thanks to the way seth had your head angled while he waited for the bleeding to stop, you could see that paul was also plugging his nose, the blood not seeming to stop as he sat down in the airchair again with a huff, glaring daggers at you when you rolled your eyes at him.

“witch might be a bit dramatic,” seth soothed, “can you call my mom? i want to get her checked for a concussion and see if she knows what’s going on,” he asked, also doing his best to refrain from rolling his eyes when paul got back up with a rather dramatic grunt.

“not concerned about me? i’m probably bleeding out from the inside thanks to whatever black magic she’s working and we won’t know until i’m dead as a doornail in an hour,” he blathered on, his voice still somehow managing to be quite loud even as his footsteps receded down the hall and into the kitchen to grab his phone. what a drama queen.

seth let out a soft sigh, giving your arm a gentle squeeze before he turned his gaze away from the hallway and back to you. you lifted your hand to gently remove his from your nose, scunching it for a moment as air refilled your nostrils, straightening your head back up with a low groan, neck tender from keeping it back for en extended period of time, “the bleeding stopped pretty quick,” seth commented, “ that’s good,” he added after a moment, his warm hand cupping your jaw, eyebrows creasing again as he got a better look at your head. 

that agitating, grating voice came again from the giant all the way in the kitchen, still loud as ever, “of course her nose stopped! guess who’s still bleeding out in here?” 

“i’ll have my mom check you out first paul!” seth called back, smiling again when you let out a breathy laugh at his reply, “is your head still hurting? paul said you went down pretty hard in the backyard,” he asked, sliding his hand up from your shoulder to gently run his fingers through your hair in what you assumed was an attempt to see if there was any visible damage. 

you hummed, shaking your head, “not anymore,” you murmured, leaving out the fact that all the pain had gone away as soon as he touched you, “i’m pretty sure i was seeing things earlier though,” you added, seth’s fingers pausing, his gaze meeting yours.

“oh?” he asked, keeping his voice soft as he waited for you to carry on.

you shrugged, “i thought i saw big mouth turn into a wolf in the yard right before i fainted,” you admitted, pulling your bottom lip between your teeth when seth’s lips pursed, his head cocking to the side just a smidge as you assumed he tried to figure out a nice way to tell you he was now definitely going to be admitting you to the psych ward.

after a moment, he sucked in a breath, “big mouth as in… paul?” he asked after a moment andyou nodded, both of you letting out quiet laughs over that being the thing he chose to focus on. he hummed and nodded, “does suit him. he’s not normally this bad though, only when he’s worried,” he vouched, voice significantly more quiet in what you could only assume was an attempt to keep paul from hearing and making an even bigger scene than he already was.

“i sure hope he’s not,” you replied with another quiet laugh, “he looks more like the brooding, quiet type. i did not think he was that noisy,” seth’s smile widened, clearly amused by your read of paul.

“but anyways i just got so angry in the yard and i don’t know why but i started yelling at him and then boom he turns into this massive grey wolf and then i fainted,” you explained, dropping your gaze down to your lap as you picked at your fingers, not feeling nearly as confident in confiding in seth as you did a few minutes prior. nothing ever seemed to come out the way you wanted and now that it was out in the air, you definitely sounded like a freak. maybe paul was right about you.

seth hummed again, gently scratching at your scalp, “well unfortunately, you weren’t hallucinating,” he murmured after a moment, sighing when you lifted your eyes to meet his. what the fuck was he on about? maybe there was some kind of gas leak in the house, and it had gotten to all three of you because there was no way in hell people were now turning into werewolves. 

“he is… well actually we are both able to,” he continued, voice soft and steady as he gave you a moment to process everything, “i’m assuming winona told you the legends, right?” he asked and you frowned, leaning away from him as you moved to get up, his hand falling from your body in the process.

before you had a moment to get all the way up, that blinding pain returned, your headache raging on, your hips and back aching and sending you to near tears as the humming returned in a rather violent, clanging now at the forefront of your mind. you immediately collapsed back onto the couch, legs giving out from the combination of all the pain, “paul get in here and help me please!” 

seth caught you, one hand gripping your hip while the other caught your head so he could pull you into his side to better support you. as soon as his hands were on you, the pain vanished just as quickly as it had come, leaving you breathless in his arms, “hey, hey, you’re okay, promise you’re okay,” you had no idea how he always managed to keep his voice so calm even when he was clearly overwhelmed, “not gonna take my hands off you unless you ask,” he reassured, brown eyes filled with concern again as he pulled the sleeve of his shirt over his hand to gently brush away the blood that had begun gushing out of your nose again.

as you struggled to orient yourself, pressing one hand into seth’s thigh to sit yourself up, you looked over to where paul was standing in front of you, wide eyed and looking almost as concerned as seth was, “happy now?” you asked paul and it came out much more humorless than you’d have liked it to thanks to your breathlessness, “fuck - sorry - that was mean,” you added after a moment, turning your attention back to seth who’s frown had deepened. a knock came at the door, and he pinched your nose again, tilting your head back to stop the bleeding.

“this is so fucked up,” you could faintly hear paul grumbling as he walked to get the door, leaving only the sounds of your heavy breathing in his absence.

neither seth nor you said anything to fill the silence, sitting for a few moments with his hand pinching your nose before sue’s voice filled the room, “oh sweetheart,” you couldn’t see her with your gaze currently on the atrocious popcorn ceiling of the living room but you’d heard her footsteps enough to gather that she had come over to the couch, “alright let me take a look. seth, honey, can you go help paul with his nose?” she asked, the couch dipping as she sat down next to you.

you were quick to drop your head back down, anxiously looking over at seth who was quick to reassure you, “i can’t really move right now,” he started, awkwardly trailing off as he tried to figure out how on earth to explain what was going on. sue narrowed her eyes at her son, beckoning him to continue and he did, slowly, “there’s… something weird going on. when i take my hand off of her she’s in a ton of pain. i don’t know,” he explained, both of them looking over to you for a moment before looking back at eachother. 

“okay…” sue let out a heavy sigh, “we can deal with that later. can i see your nose?” she asked, offering you a soft smile when you nodded. seth’s hand slid down to your shoulder while sue grabbed some antiseptic wipes from her bag, her calloused hands gently rubbing off the remaining blood that had dripped down over your lips and chin so she could get a better look at you.

“how is your head feeling? paul said you went down pretty hard,” she murmured as she swapped out the wipes for some gauze, all of her attention currently on making sure you weren’t bleeding anymore. if you weren’t so stressed, you might’ve laughed at how her wording was identical to seth’s just a few minutes prior - like mother like son, you supposed.

you let out a small hum, “it’s only bad when he takes his hands away. right now it’s fine though,” you explained, sighing as she dropped the guazein favor of threading her fingers through your hair to slowly check your scalp for any head wounds, just as seth had done, “and i thought i was seeing things but seth said i wasn’t. that him and paul can actually…” your voice quieted as you struggled to find the right words, also unsure if you should continue because you had no idea if sue even knew about this big wolf thing. 

“she saw paul phase in the yard and thought she was hallucinating. i told her she wasn’t,” seth quickly and concisely clarified, you shifted your gaze between the two awkwardly as they both stared at each other with rather concerned expressions. you imagined this must be about as stressed as the clearwaters got. they seemed to hide it better than most, which, based on the fact that you could definitely feel the stress radiating off of them, you were beginning to get concerned about the gravity of the situation.

shockingly, paul’s obnoxiously loud voice was welcome this time as it split the tension in the room. calling from the kitchen, he griped, “i want it on the record that she made me shift!” 

seth rolled his eyes again, giving your shoulder a gentle squeeze and you guessed that was his way of letting you know that he didn’t blame you for paul’s ridiculous outburst earlier, “we got it paul!” seth called back, voice still overtly calm. “paul is convinced her anger magically made him angry too and forced him to shift,” seth added, not that the clarification helped much but sue just hummed, pursing her lips together before she went back to checking your scalp.

once she was satisfied you weren’t secretly bleeding out, she dropped her hands from your head, pulling a small flashlight out of her bag, “look straight ahead for me sweetheart,” sue directed and you nodded, looking at her as she shined the light into your eyes, directly in front and then to each side, “your pupils seem alright,” she decided after a minute, clicking the flashlight off and setting it in her bag.

she let out a heavy exhale, looking over to seth then, “he hasn’t had any problems like that in a long time,” sue responded to his earlier comment, glancing over at her son, who just hummed and nodded.

“i know,” seth agreed, not seeming to have much else to say as he let out a heavy sigh, leaning back into the corner of the couch, his hand still on your shoulder for both of your sakes. 

sue waited a moment, the three of you sitting in a quiet silence. it seemed natural enough for the two of them but you felt awkward, not at all sure what to do, “would it be okay with you if seth tried taking his hand off again for a second so i can see what’s going on? i think that’s the bigger issue here,” sue kept her voice clinically calm, that familiar warmth still managing to seep through just enough for you not to feel horribly anxious about it.

“i think so,” you whispered, glancing over to seth, who gave you a reassuring smile, straightening back up when he saw your apprehension, “promise you’ll put it right back after a second?” 

he squeezed your shoulder again, “promise,” he reassured, “you ready?” he asked, waiting for you to nod before he pulled his hand away from your shoulder just an inch.

the pain didn’t come. only the low humming in the back of your mind returned, though it wasn’t nearly as intense or as debilitating as it was earlier. your shoulders dropped, a breath of relief leaving your lips when you realized you weren’t in fact, going to literally be attached to sue clearwater’s poor son for the rest of both of your days. 

“no pain?” sue questioned after a moment of observing you, both her and seth smiling when you shook your head. all three of you noticeably relaxed with that now solved, even though none of you could figure out what the hell had just happened. you weren’t asking too many questions, though, just happy to know you weren’t teetering on the edge of agony at any second again. 

sue turned her attention to seth who just shrugged, also not knowing what had just transpired, “okay… well that’s good i suppose,” sue let out a breathy laugh, a hint of anxiety behind it but it was easily hidden by her calm demeanor, “has anyone called billy yet?” she asked after a moment, both of you shaking your head and paul calling out a rather loud ‘no’ from wherever he was hiding out in the kitchen, presumably trying to distance himself as much as possible from you.

“alright, paul?” sue called, waiting until she heard a chair in the kitchen scrape against the floor, some footsteps, and eventually for paul’s looming figure to appear as he stepped back into the living room, still dramatically holding his nose though his head wasn’t tilted back so you’d assumed he was just going to suffocate himself before your black magic or whatever he thought you had got to him. 

sue offered him a kind smile, “come sit and let me take a look at your nose and then i’ll give him a call so we can see if he knows anything that can help,” she cooed, also clearly refraining from laughing at paul’s antics as he dramatically dropped down on the couch next to sue, as far as he could from your end of the couch with seth. 

she grabbed some more gauze and antiseptic pads before she got to work helping clear off his nose as well, “looks like the bleeding has stopped,” she murmured, “still really strange that you had a nosebleed though,” she added, and although you’d gathered that was definitely true, you still chose to believe she said that just to coddle paul a bit so he wouldn’t go all psycho on you again.

“almost sounds like something that would happen if a witch were here,” paul jeered, the remaining three of you letting out dramatic sighs at his comment, “i can’t believe you’re taking her side in this whole thing. we don’t even know anything about her!” he protested and sue just rolled her eyes before turning her attention to you and seth.

“why don’t you take her into the kitchen and heat up some of that soup, okay? should help get her feeling back to normal, and i’ll stay in here and help paul. don’t need him getting stressed out either,” sue explained, ignoring paul’s groan as he dropped his head back against the couch, holding one beefy arm up to keep some gauze against his nose even though sue just told all of you that the bleeding had stopped. you decided then that this man was a complete and utter diva.

“alright let’s go get some soup,” seth’s cheery voice pulled you away from staring at paul, the two of you quickly getting up to head into the kitchen while sue dealt with your least favorite diva in the living room. what a day.

chapter three | dusk till dawn

synopsis: more unknowns continue to emerge as reader’s connections with paul, seth, and embry make themselves known

warnings: n/a

word count: 4.5k

[masterlist] [previous] [next]

it didn’t take too long for seth to heat up the chicken and dumpling soup for the two of you to snack on and, soon enough, you found yourself sipping on it while he made easy conversation about anything other than whatever the hell had just transpired earlier that day. though, it didn’t take him long to notice the way you were nearly nodding off in the middle of your conversation as you finally let yourself feel just how tired you were. it was nearly midnight, and you’d been up since 5 that morning to pack and drive over from seattle, so neither of you were surprised by your sudden fatigue.

“do you know where you’re gonna sleep? i can totally go kick paul off the couch if you wanted to lay down there,” he asked, that same, comforting smile coating his features when you yawned again and nodded.

“i can do it. don’t need him getting mad at you for no reason,” you mused, mouthing a quick ‘thank you’ to seth as he got up with a laugh, taking the empty bowl and spoon from in front of you to set in the sink. you followed shortly after him, instead heading into the living room where sue was on the phone and paul was sprawled out on the couch, half asleep with his legs dangling off one end while he kept one arm tossed over his eyes. sue gave you a small smile when she noticed you, quickly heading outside to the back porch so she could continue her phone conversation. 

you didn’t think too much of it, hearing seth’s footsteps followed behind you and you smiled, looking over your shoulder at him with an appreciative hum that had him chuckling, “wouldn’t send you in here alone,” he mused, giving your shoulder a gentle squeeze which had a blush quickly creeping up on your cheeks, not totally sure how to respond to the - very welcome but unexpected - physical touch from him. 

if he noticed your blush, he didn’t say anything because within a few seconds, paul was groaning as he presumably woke himself up, “can’t even sleep for ten minutes without the princess of la push needing something,” he grumbled, sitting up to get a better look at you and seth.

you couldn’t help it, a small giggle escaping your lips at how absolutely ridiculously miserable this man managed to make himself all the time. seth smiled, also letting out a quiet laugh when he heard paul’s new nickname for you, “the princess of la push needs the couch,” seth mused, an easy smile on his face as he slid one hand to your lower back to guide you over to the couch where paul began griping about how obnoxious it was that he was trapped here at such a late hour. 

to his credit though, he did get up, moving to sit back in the armchair while you grabbed a blanket from your duffle bag, quickly laying down on the couch where he was just a few moments ago. as soon as your body hit the couch, you let out a heavy sigh, the warmth from his body heat radiating straight to your core.

“we run warm,” seth mused, sitting down at the other end of the couch by your feet.

you hummed, looking over to paul, who was watching you rather warily. before either of you could start your bickering again, the back door slid open as sue stepped inside, quickly closing it behind her before the cool night air could begin seeping in. 

the three of you turned your attention to her, “did he say anything?” seth asked, not sounding concerned but more so intrigued by whatever insight he must’ve assumed billy would have about the whole thing. from what seth had told you in the kitchen, billy wasn’t just heading the tribal council; his son, jacob, was also the pack’s alpha, both of which had quickly immersed him into the world of the supernatural when they all started shifting over a decade ago.

sue let out a soft sigh, shaking her head, “he doesn’t know much more than we do. said he’ll call for a council meeting tomorrow to put our heads together. quil should be coming over to keep an eye on you tonight, though in case you need anything,” sue explained, looking over to you for the last part, and you frowned, sitting up on your elbows to look over at seth for further explanation. he’d already told you about jacob while he was explaining billy’s connection to the whole werewolf thing, but hadn’t gone into details on any other members of the pack.

“quil is just another shifter, around our age,” he explained, “he’ll probably be outside in the yard past the treeline, but can come in if you need anything,” seth added, running his hand over your ankle to give you another gentle, reassuring squeeze. you nodded slowly, turning to look over at paul.

he didn’t miss a beat as he stood up, stretching his ridiculously well sculpted arms over his head, the joints cracking as he said, “he’s easy pickins if you’re looking for another victim.” 

seth rolled his eyes and you let out a loud groan, matching paul’s dramatics as you dropped back down on the couch, “goodnight paul!” you called as he headed over to the front door, clearly just as eager to get out of the house as you were to get him to leave.

“keep an eye on your phone for a text from jake,” sue directed as paul pulled her into a hug, his form quickly dwarfing hers.

he hummed, “got it boss,” he mused as he released her, nodding over to seth who rolled his eyes again but waved to him nonetheless, “night princess!” paul called, the sarcasm dripping through his voice as he headed out the front door and into the night, not bothering to look back. you were quite thankful for that as he would’ve only seen your jaw drop with a rapidly spreading pink blush coating your features. you were quite certain he despised you but holy fuck you couldn’t help the way he had your heart pounding. 

“i’ll come back over in the morning to check on you, okay?” seth asked, thankfully choosing not to mention your body’s response to paul’s new nickname for you. you nodded, swallowing as you turned your attention back to him, only to find him smiling at you. 

“see you in the morning seth,” you murmured, a shy smile on your face as he got up, mirroring paul’s earlier actions as he stretched his arms over his head, his shirt sliding up just enough for you to get a glimpse of the layer of muscles beneath. his smile widened when he caught you staring, and he just settled for letting out a breathy laugh.

“see you in the morning,” he copied, heading over to his mom where she was grabbing her medical bag and responding to what you assumed was a text on her phone, “ready mom?” he asked, grabbing the car keys and medical bag from her when she nodded, clicking her phone off before heading over to you.

you sat up, realizing you’d definitely need to walk them to the door so you could lock it behind them, “you call one of us if you need anything, okay sweetheart?” she asked, pulling you into a tight hug when you got up, pressing a quick, motherly kiss to your hair before straightening back up, “and quil is outside if you need anything. just yell if you need him.”

you hummed and nodded, “thank you,” you whispered, letting out a soft sigh as you three headed for the door, “should i…” you trailed off as you three got to the door, “like invite quil in or something?” you asked awkwardly and both seth and sue laughed, shaking their heads.

“he’ll be fine,” seth reassured, “i can make sure he comes over in the morning with me to introduce the two of you,” he added, a familiar, serene smile on his face when you nodded, happy with that compromise.

“thank you,” you said again, “for everything today.”

“anything for the princess of la push,” seth teased, and you rolled your eyes, his laughter echoing as him and sue headed down the steps of your porch and over to their car.

you waited until they were both inside safely before heading back into your grandmother’s home, locking the door behind you and quickly climbing back onto your makeshift bed that was the couch. despite his absence, you could feel paul’s body heat still radiating from the couch and seth’s warmth in your chest. the soothing sensations didn’t take long to help you drift off into some much-needed sleep, somehow more comforted knowing there was a wolf outside to make sure you were safe.

…

“i don’t know seth, she just wandered out here asking for embry. oh fuck i think she’s waking up wait a second-” you let out a low groan, blearily looking around as you tried to re-orient yourself. the buzzing in your head was back to an uncomfortable level, and your back was killing you yet again. though, as soon as your eyes managed to focus, you saw a man with ridiculously curly hair sitting on the edge of the coffee table, his expression indicating he was rather freaked out.

“are you quil?” you asked, voice croaky as you pushed yourself up onto your elbows, quickly grabbing the bottle of gatorade seth had left on the side table for you. quil nodded, and you took a few sips, the ache in your throat quickly easing.

“do you remember going outside?” he asked, and you frowned, shaking your head. the last thing you’d remembered was falling asleep on the couch, “seth did you hear that?” quil grabbed his phone from the coffee table, quickly putting it on speaker phone for both of you to listen.

“yea i heard that,” his voice came through the phone, muddled with fatigue but you could faintly hear some shuffling in the background and you’d assumed he must’ve been getting up, “i’ll come back over, couldn’t sleep anyways,” he sighed and quil nodded even though seth couldn’t see it, looking from his phone back over to you.

after a few moments, seth asked, “has anyone checked on embry?” 

“who’s embry?” you looked up at quil who’s eyes somehow managed to widen.

“oh this is so fucked,” he groaned, “you don’t remember asking about him?” he questioned, whining when you shook your head. you had no clue what he was talking about, but had assumed it must’ve had something to do with you wandering outside, however long ago.

“okay i’ll call embry, you keep an eye on her, and i’ll be over soon,” seth decided, waiting until he heard quil agree before hanging up the phone. 

“can you tell me what happened?” you asked, pausing for a moment as you took in his stressed figure, “i’m sorry if i scared you. i don’t remember any of it,” you added and he seemed to take that to heart, giving you a small smile as he straightened himself up a bit.

“i think you must’ve been sleepwalking,” he started, “you came outside a little bit ago and walked right up to me which was lowkey kinda creepy because i don’t know how you knew where i was and then you started asking me to take you to embry which was highkey really creepy because i don’t think you know eachother,” he concluded and you sighed, sitting up on the couch so you could sit opposite of him instead of laying down, pressing your hands against your lower back to try and massage the throbbing muscles there.

you tried racking your brain for any memory of someone named embry, but nothing was coming to mind. the only thing your brain seemed to want to focus on was the obnoxious thrumming in the back of your mind. 

after a moment, you exhaled heavily, “i don’t know who he is,” you reminded and quil’s shoulders dropped as he sighed, nodding. 

you offered him a small smile, unable to hold it for long before it turned into a grimace when the throbbing in your back amped up again. a frown quickly coated quil’s features as he watched you try massaging the sore muscles,“is your back hurting? seth said to call him if it started bothering you again,” 

“i can handle it,” you reassured him, “can you show me a picture of embry? maybe i’ll recognize him,” you redirected, not particularly interested in having quil call seth again even when he was already on his way over here at whatever ungodly hour of the morning that it was.

quil didn’t seem to pick up on you changing the subject or at least, if he did, he didn’t say anything about it, “yea i think i’ve got one,” he picked up his phone again, starting to swipe through his photos app, giving you an opportunity to get up so you could go hunt around the kitchen for some tea or something of the sort. 

quil followed you into the kitchen, wordlessly taking a seat at the kitchen table, still digging through his phone while you searched through the cupboards, “assuming i can actually find any, do you want some tea?” you asked, holding in a gag when you got to the cupboard with a ridiculous amount of tins of sardines your grandma seemed to be hoarding. 

“i’m okay, seth probably will though,” he hummed, not looking up from his phone as he continued to aimlessly scroll for a picture of the incredibly elusive embry. 

you nodded, grinning when you finally spotted a box of lavender tea, quickly grabbing it off the shelf before getting the kettle from the mess of pots and pans in the cabinet under the sink. 

holding the kettle under the faucet, you began filling it up with water, “he not very photogenic or something?” you asked with a breathy laugh, quil also letting out one of his own.

“apparently not,” he smiled, “not sure why he’s so difficult to find. i guess anytime we take a picture together it’s on his phone,” he mused, clicking his phone off and setting it down on the table when he looked up to see you gently massaging your hip again while you got the kettle situated on the stove with the other, “you sit, i can take care of it,” he reassured, quickly coming over to shoo you away when you opened your mouth to argue with him. 

you quickly conceded, “thank you,” you murmured, “fuck that really hurts,” you murmured, more to yourself than anything, the pain gradually starting to ramp up more and more along with the humming in your mind. 

as you sat down on the chair quil had just gotten up from, a knock came at the back door, followed by seth clearwater’s voice, “it’s just me,” he reassured, sliding the glass door closed as he kicked his shoes off.

you flashed him a half smile, holding it just long enough to ask, “you want some tea?” before you were grimacing again, a quiet whimper escaping your lips as you got your other hand situated, massaging your hips with both hands.

“sure,” seth’s voice was soft as he came over to you, eyebrows pinched in concern as he came to sit next to you, “are you hurting again?” he asked, frowning when you sighed and nodded. you two held eye contact for a moment too long, his honey irises filled with something akin to guilt as he tried to figure out how to help you. neither of you seemed confident enough to ask if he could touch you, but you were growing more and more desperate as the seconds dragged on.

quil came to your rescue, whether it was because he was actually trying to help save you from the embarrassment of trying and failing to ask seth to help you or because he simply wasn’t paying attention, you appreciated it, “were you able to get ahold of embry?” he asked, leaning back against the kitchen counter to look over at the two of you.

you tore your gaze from seth’s as you stood from the chair, deciding trying to move around a bit would help more than curling up in the kitchen chair, “couldn’t get ahold of him,” seth’s voice was distant as he got up, following you into the living room where you paused in front of the screen door, tilting your head back to blink away the tears that had quickly clouded your vision. you really didn’t need to be having two meltdowns in one day, especially not in front of seth.

without any warning, some primal part of your brain took over, “he’s in the backyard,” you said, struggling to figure out what the hell made you say that but the buzzing in your head only grew, diluting quil’s voice as you dropped your head, looking out the glass door to the backyard, your entire focus suddenly zeroing in on the giant dark grey wolf standing in your yard, staring right through the window at you. before you even processed what you were saying, you breathed out his name, “embry.”

your legs gave out from beneath you as the room began to spin, seth’s hands catching you before you could hit the floor, pulling you back up tight against his chest. as soon as he caught you, the pain faded and buzzing stilled, “okay you need to sit down,” he ordered, “quil can you go-” he started, stopping himself when he saw how quil was already pulling the glass door open to head out into the backyard and help embry, “thank you,” he called, his grip tightening on you when you pulled against him in a weak attempt to see what was happening.

“seth we-” he didn’t even let you get three words out, immediately shushing you before he was dropping one hand down to rest under the bend of your knees, pulling you up bridal style so he could carry you over to the couch.

“quil is gonna check on him, and you and me are gonna sit on the couch while he helps, okay? if he needs anything, i’ll hear it and then we can go out,” despite the firmness of his words, his tone remained gentle. he paused his steps for a moment, waiting until you conceded and gave him a small nod before he was continuing the short journey to the couch.

you remained in a bit of a trance, not giving any more resistance to seth moving you, though you did turn your head in an attempt to look out the window while he walked you over to the couch. the couch squeaked when he sat down, and he exhaled a heavy sigh, helping get you situated next to him so he wasn’t completely overloading your senses by holding you so tightly in his lap. your head relaxed against his shoulder, his hand coming to rest against your hip as he loosely wrapped his arm around you, “i’m sorry,” you whispered, not entirely sure what exactly you were apologizing for, but it still felt right. it didn’t seem like either of you knew what had just transpired but you did know you definitely scared the shit out of him and that seemed worthy enough of an apology from you.

“don’t apologize,” he murmured, and you let out a quiet hum in response to him, smiling a bit when you felt him give your hip a gentle, reassuring squeeze. a silence settled over the two of you as you replayed what had just happened in your mind, the lack of pain making it much easier to attempt to process what was going on.

“was he really out there?” you asked after a few moments, eyes focused on the mosaic pattern dancing along the edges of the coffee table, the array of rainbow colors providing an excellent alternative to looking up at seth while you waited for his response.

“embry?” he asked, swallowing when you nodded, neither of you bothering to lift your heads from eachother as you talked, “yea, that was him,” he confirmed, “quil is talking with him out there right now, i think they’ll come in in a minute,” he added, another silence falling over the both of you, neither of you sure what to say about whatever just happened. 

while the two of you waited, you settled for counting the mosaic tiles instead of continuing to futilely replay everything in your head. you’d only made it to number 74 when the sliding glass door opened again, both you and seth sitting up to look over your shoulders.

quil stepped in first, that same stressed out look covering his features he had on earlier when you first woke up from your sleepwalking endeavor. he did manage to give you a small smile when he saw you looking at him, though, both of you quickly turned your attention to the second man coming in just behind him.

you’d deduced he must’ve been embry, and good lord was he a sight to behold. he was a bit taller than quil and seth, though not by much, and he had a quiet, intense stare that almost had you looking away when you first made eye contact with him, but something deep in your gut told you he was safe. 

“are you okay?” you asked softly, watching as embry noticeably paused for a moment, looking rather confused why you asked him that before he responded.

“are you okay?” he mirrored, not playful in the slightest as he took you in, also seeming to have the same struggle deciphering the depth of the connection between the two of you. 

the corner of your lips curled into a small smile at his concern, “totally fine,” you responded, quickly adding, “you still didn’t answer my question.”

he huffed a barely audible laugh at that, looking down at the floor for a moment to recompose himself before he was meeting your eyes again, “totally fine,” he repeated, and you barely contained your eye roll, quickly coming to the conclusion that he was not a man of many words. 

the sound of the kettle whistling cut through the moment, and quil quickly turned to head back into the kitchen, “not adding house fire to my list of problems from tonight,” he grumbled on his way into the kitchen, both you and seth letting out breathy laughs, embry only giving the smallest of smiles. 

“do you want to come sit?” you asked when you noticed how awkward he looked standing on the doormat, clearly not sure if he was welcome to come in or not. 

he gave you a quick, curt nod before taking a few short steps over to you and seth, opting to sit down in the arm chair across from the couch instead of next to you, “were you also sleepwalking?” seth asked, sighing when embry nodded, “i don’t think i’ve ever heard of anyone shifting in their sleep,” seth murmured as quil came back into the living room, two steaming mugs of tea in his hands.

“haven’t heard of paul’s bogus mood control nosebleed thing or your whole magic touch thing either,” quil’s voice was still playful as he handed you one mug, your old favorite actually, one you’d picked out for your grandma from pike place market when you were just a kid that had somehow still lasted nearly 20 years and counting. seth got your second favorite, an old university of washington one with a cartoonish husky in a football jersey. you quietly thanked him, smiling when he flashed you a rather large, goofy-looking smile before he headed back into the kitchen to grab another mug for embry.

seth sat his mug down on the coaster on the coffee table while you chose to hold yours between your hands, enjoying the warmth radiating off of the mug, “well i’m guessing billy is gonna make all of us come over tomorrow - or today. whatever,” seth groaned and you laughed softly, a yawn following close behind, “you wanna put a movie on? maybe that’ll help everyone fall asleep,” he asked, giving your hip another gentle squeeze when you nodded. 

“i haven’t even tried touching the tv, though, so i’ve got no idea if that’s working,” you explained, the three of you looking to the old tv hung behind embry that your grandma had somehow managed to get mounted on the wall.

“i bet we can figure it out,” seth reassured, grabbing the remote off the coffee table as quil came back in, another two mugs in his hands.

“changed your mind?” you teased when you saw him hand one mug to embry and keep another for himself.

he laughed, “something about seeing two people sleepwalk in one night really makes you reconsider the benefits of hot tea,” he teased, dramatically pulling the other armchair across the room so he could sit next to embry and also sort of face the tv.

while seth spent the next few minutes getting the tv sorted out, you watched as quil and embry had a nearly silent conversation with each other. despite the fact that embry hadn’t said much to you, you could see him talking to quil, even though it was minuscule.

before you could eavesdrop too much, the tv turned on, quil cheering when some weird old war movie came on, “change the channel,” you whispered to seth, and he laughed quietly, clicking the remote again to surf through some channels, much to quil’s chagrin. 

“oh come on seth, please-” he whined, getting up again to turn off the big lights, the living room illuminated only by the lamp next to you and the tv’s soft glow as seth perused the channels. 

seth rolled his eyes as quil continued his dramatics, only stopping when he landed on a new-ish marvel movie you hadn’t seen before but seemed much better than the ancient black and white movie you’d started with, “this is good,” you reassured seth when he looked over to you for approval, quil cheering again when he heard your agreement.

“finally!” he beamed and the other three of you let out quiet laughs, not sure why he considered less than 2 minutes of changing channels to be so long. you took a sip of the tea as you all got situated, a comfortable silence settling over you as the movie played. after a few minutes you set your mug on the coffee table next to seth’s before settling back into his side, resting your head on his shoulder as you drifted off.

"there you go," seth groaned when he felt the way you were clenching around him at the new position, "eyes on me pretty girl," he reminded, flashing you a smile when you managed to get your focus back on him.

"feels good like this?" he asked, not stopping the way he was rolling his hips against yours, one hand on the back of your thigh to keep your leg above your head.

you nodded, moving to respond to him but all that came out was a breathy whine that had seth laughing, "'s my good girl," seth praised, "you think you can cum one more time for me?" he asked, already knowing you were well on your way despite having already having cum on him 3 other times that night.

"mhm-" was all you could muster before you were dropping your head back to let out another lewd moan that had seth struggling to keep his own composure.

with the newfound access to your collarbone, seth peppered your jawline with kisses, making his way down to the crook of your neck in the same slow, sensual way he was currently thrusting in and out of your heat.

you ran your hands down his chest, "can i touch myself?" you whispered, whining when seth pushed his hips into yours a little rougher than he had been.

"'s my job," he teased, lifting his head from your neck so he could look down at you, hooking your leg over his shoulder to free his hand so he'd have better access to you, "now cum for me, yea?" he asked, voice breathless and raspy in the way you'd become very familiar with since you'd started fucking him.

you'd only had a second to nod before he was rolling your clit between his fingers, another loud moan falling past your lips as you worked through all the sensations currently coursing through you.

before you could even begin to process how good everything felt, seth felt the need to add yet another sensation to the mix when he took your nipple into his mouth, sucking on and swirling his tongue around the sensitive bud.

"seth please-" you gasped, whining as you suddenly became much more aware of just how badly you needed to cum, the knot in your belly tightening until it was nearly unbearable to hold back.

"you've got it pretty girl," seth encouraged before he was diving back in, the combination of his tongue, cock, and fingers on your body snapping the knot in your belly as you came undone on him.

you wrapped your arms around his neck to pull him close to you, burying your face in the crook of his neck while you rode out your orgasm, seth continuing the sensual fluidity of his movements until he couldn't hold back his own orgasm anymore, thrusts stuttering for just a moment before he came undone inside you.

your breath was hot and heavy against his neck, both of you silent as you struggled to come back from the sensory overload that was your imprinter. seth pressed his lips to the crook of your neck, slowly peppering the sensitive skin with gentle kisses, "i love you," he murmured, lifting his head when you finally loosened your grip on him enough for him to comfortably hover over you again.

you let out a breathy giggle, smiling up at him, "i love you too pretty boy."
