It was past midnight by the time Alex and Aidan arrived back to Lunar Ridge. The house was lit up as they parked outside. Marcus bounded down the driveway towards them as they exited the car, crushing each of them in a bone-crippling hug.

'Welcome back,' he spread his hands wide, 'I'd ask you how was your week away but I'm pretty sure every wolf in the country has heard about the escape and carnage caused by the Luna of Lunar Ridge,′ his joy was infectious. Alex smiled, leading him back into the house. Marcus had so many questions for her, wanting her to relive every moment of her kidnap and the subsequent terrifying adventure it had taken her on.

'Maybe another day Marcus,' Alex patted his arm as she answered. 'I haven't quite debriefed myself from it all yet. But,' she got excited as a question of her own came into her mind, 'I want to hear all about training and what's been happening here.'

Marcus relayed everything that had been happening in the pack since their departure almost a week before. Warrior training had been stepped up and patrol rotations had been amended, similar to Black Mountain. Laura was overrun with requests from women in the pack to be trained and the schools had cleared time in the schedules for daily self defence training for the students. Alex could barely contain her surprise and excitement. Things were genuinely going to be different and she would be part of the change.

'And don't think I haven't noticed that you two have finally marked each other,' Marcus caught Aidan in a headlock as he said it, tussling with him for a moment before breaking apart and pulling him into a another hug.

'Nothing like a near death experience to get your priorities straight,' Aidan kissed Alex lightly on the lips, rubbing her cheek with his thumb and staring adoringly at her. Alex blushed slightly under his gaze.

'Beautiful,' Marcus clapped his hands together, a mischievous glint in his eye. 'Never in all my years did I ever think someone would reign in this beast. Alex, are you sure you know what you're taking on here?' Marcus and Alex laughed while Aidan pretended to take a swing at his friend.

'Out Marcus,' Aidan ordered.

'See you in the morning Boss,' Marcus made a mock salute to Aidan as he jogged out the door.

Aidan looked back at Alex who was still laughing.

'You think he's funny?' Aidan squinted his eyes, walking menacingly towards her as though stalking prey.

'Hilarious,' Alex bit her lip trying to stop the grin forming on her face. But the scent of her arousal gave her away. Aidan launched himself at her as she tried to turn and run from him. The sound of her laughter was like a melody in his ears. He grabbed her arm, pulling her towards him so he could bend slightly and lift her over his shoulder. She screamed out his name as she continued laughing. He smacked her firm ass with his free hand, causing more laughter as he carried her down the hallway towards their bedroom. The smell of her wet pussy was overwhelming his senses. He wasn't going to let her sleep tonight.

Alex awoke early the next morning, wrapped comfortably in Aidan's arms. Even though she had slept very little the night before, with Aidan taking her in every position imaginable, she felt incredible. Strong and powerful. She could feel her heart beating strongly inside her chest and her blood rushing around her body. The air felt cleaner in her lungs and it was as though they were expanding wider and taking in more air than before. Alex released herself from Aidan's grip, despite his grumbling protests, to go to the bathroom and start getting ready for the day.

She started to notice a lot more nuances in her body as she showered. Running her hands over her body as she washed, her arm and leg muscles felt even more toned and defined; her breasts and ass felt firmer and rounder and, she really started questioning her sanity now; was she taller?

Confused and mildly alarmed, Alex dried herself off and stood in front of the full length mirror to inspect herself. Her jaw dropped. It was her body she was looking at but it was different. It was as though every part of her body had been upgraded slightly. Even her face looked more beautiful somehow. Her skin was glowing and there was a shine from her, often neglected, hair that had never been there before.

Just as she was squeezing different muscles and taking in her appearance front and back, Aidan tumbled in the door. They looked at each other, each with a look of shock on their face. Aidan too seemed to have grown overnight. He was taller and broader than before, his stomach muscles more chiselled looking than ever. Aidan was taking in every aspect of Alex's body too.

'What's happening?' Alex asked, breaking the silence. 'Is this what happens when you mate an Alpha?' She was trying to come up with any explanation even when she knew that didn't make sense. Ronan and Alice hadn't physically changed after they mated. She hadn't heard of this happening to other Alpha and Luna's and she knew plenty of them.

'I don't know,' Aidan was shaking his head. 'Do you feel different in here?' Aidan motioned towards his torso and then his head. She knew exactly what he meant and nodded. Even her vision seemed better than it did yesterday. And she could hear more clearly too. Aidan's heart rate was increasing in his chest and she could hear noises from outside that she wouldn't have heard the day before; birds wings flapping, the river water flowing over a mile away.

'Maybe it's because you're an Alpha too,' Aidan added hopefully, shrugging his shoulders. 'Either way,' a wry smile was starting to form on his face as he moved swiftly past shock and surprise, 'you look more incredible than ever.' He was a blur as he moved towards her, smashing his mouth to hers as he pulled her body flush with his.

'Wow even that erection feels bigger than last night,' Alex could feel how huge and hard Aidan was against her leg. 'But I won't know for certain until I sit on top of it,' she added wiggling her eyebrows and smiling seductively.

'Christ you are sexy as hell,' Aidan exhaled loudly as he lifted her up into his arms, placing her on the counter beside the sink. He pushed apart her knees as he knelt before her, resting her thighs on his shoulders. His fingers opened up her folds wide giving his tongue unfettered access to every part of her sensitive pussy. She was wet just looking at him between her thighs. He worked furiously licking up towards her clit, sucking and nipping at it to bring louder moans from Alex.

'Don't come yet Alex,' Aidan stood as he felt her reaching a climax, slowing things down as he wrapped as arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him as he took her nipples into his mouth, torturing her with slow kisses and licks to each in turn. When he had licked every part of her enormous heaving breasts, he moved up to her mouth, kissing her hard. Alex's hands were moving slowly over his erection, pulling lightly on his balls much to Aidan's pleasure.

Aidan pulled Alex into a standing position and turned her around, ramming his huge cock into her wet pussy as she cried out his name loudly. He reached his hands around to massage her breasts, pulling on the hard nipples. One of his hands moved downwards, circling her clit and causing Alex to shudder with delight. As he continued pounding into her, he put one hand over her throat, forcing her back into him and turning her face upwards.

'Aidan, I'm coming,' she breathed, her pussy pulsing around him. It was all he needed to hear to empty his own load inside her as she climaxed so hard that her legs almost gave out. Aidan steadied her as they came down from the high, both panting harshly.

Still slightly breathless, Alex took Aidan's hand, leading him out of the bathroom and pushing him onto the bed. 'I'm still going to have to do my own assessment and sit on top of that cock.'

I'm a lucky man, Aidan thought as Alex climbed on top of him.
