Knox’s POV

I was so shocked. I have never in all my years as a wolf ever seen anything like this. Looking over to Vlad I could tell he was just as shocked as I was. We were unsure of what to expect when Sophia shifted. Vlad figured she would turn into a white wolf as they were very rare amongst our kind. However we never imagined this.

Sophia/Gaea started to whimper as she looked from Vlad to me in confusion.

Knox what is wrong? You two aren’t saying anything and you just keep staring at me. What do I look like?

Oh my poor baby, snapping out of my shock I knelt down and slowly lifted my hand to her. I just couldn’t believe what I was seeing.

Knox…

“Baby, I am sorry but Vlad and I are just in shock. Never in a million years did we ever consider this. But trust me on this. You are the most beautiful wolf I have ever seen.”

What do I look like? Am I black or white…you are starting to scare the shit out of me.

“Calm Gaea, everything is fine. And your mate is correct you are the most beautiful wolf I have ever seen and I am married to one so please do not tell her I said that.”

Vlad made his way over to us and knelt down next to me. Staring at me intensely.

Will someone please tell me what is going on?

“Well baby, you are not black or white? Um…you are actually…purple. Like a light grey-purple.”

Oh, so I am purple like my eyes. Cool. So why are you both freaking out? Is there something wrong with being a purple wolf?

“Baby, why don’t we go for a run first and we will talk about this later. I want to give you a chance to run and get used to being in this form. I promise…later.”

"I will leave you mates to your run. I need to make some calls." With that Vlad disappeared.

Finally with a nod from her I stepped back and shifted. My large pitch black wolf stood proud over his mate. I usually towered over most wolves, but my mate was just a tad bit smaller than me. Leaning down I nuzzled my nose next to hers, I loved the feeling of our bond in wolf form.

Throwing my head back I howled to my pack, indicating that their Luna had shifted. Hundreds of howls were returned in the distance. Turning I lead Sophia on her first run. This was something I had wanted since meeting her all those months ago. Nothing made a shifter more at peace than when they are running with their mate.

She looked amazing. Her light purple fur reflected the moon light giving it a shimmer. At certain angles it truly looked like she was glowing purple. It was an astonishing sight to see. Pushing ahead we darted past trees and rocks. I was leading her to the waterfall knowing it was one of her favorite places.

She was able to keep up with me the whole way and I was so proud. Most were left in my dust as being Alpha I had the ability to run circles around most wolves. It was part of our many strengths. But not my mate, she kept up with me stride for stride. Nothing could have made me prouder.

As we approached the lake our pace slowed. Noticing where we were Sophia jumped ahead of me and headed to the edge of the water. Leaning down she took in her reflection.

Knox you weren’t kidding. I am purple, but I love it. I feel so…complete now. Thank you.

No thank you baby. You are the most precious thing to me and I love you so much. Do you want to try shifting back…we are all alone out here. Alex and Jane are guarding us but they are not close.

I don’t know how.

Just like before. Close your eyes and imagine what you look like as a human.

I shifted back and sat on the grass waiting. She closed her eyes and her body started to shimmer. As I watch another surprise presented itself. Unlike all shifters, when they returned to their human form they were naked, shifters destroyed a lot of clothes. But not my mate. Her clothes were completely intact. Not a button missing. Oh Vlad was going to have a field day with this one.

Smiling at my mate I reached for her and took her in my arms. Her eyes were still glowing and it was such a turn on. Who knew I would get hard at purple glowing eyes. I kissed her letting her feel my desire and love for her. She was my everything.

I loved feeling her hands as they ran up and down my chest. They had the softest touch and my skin came alive under her fingertips. She was staring down watching her fingers as they traced patterns on my abs.

“Knox how come you are naked and I still have my clothes on?”

“I am unsure baby, but I am guessing it has something to do with your powers. At least I know I don’t have to worry about any other wolves getting a peak at your naked body. That is for my eyes only.”

“But aren’t you uncomfortable sitting here with nothing on?”

“No baby, not with you on my lap.”

“You are such a perv, I meant isn’t the ground rough against your skin.”

“Oh, well yes but I am okay. Now a bed would be great, but it would be hard to get one all the way out here so the ground will have to do.”

“Yes a bed that would be all better. Let’s go climb into bed.”

Before I could answer the world around us tilted and we suddenly found ourselves sitting in the middle of our bed.

Shocked we both froze as we looked around. We were in our room, sitting on our bed in the same positions we were in at the lake. Holy shit.

ALPHA…ALPHA…where are you – I can no longer sense you.

Relax Alex, it seems my mate has discovered another talent. We are safely tucked into bed. Have a good night.

Jane is going to kill her for scaring us like that. No problem, see you in the morning.

Laughing I explained to Sophia that Jane was pissed. She shyly tucked her head into my neck muttering a sorry.

“Well I didn’t know I could do that so it is technically not my fault. But since we are in bed, let’s forget about Jane and Alex.”

Oh how I loved my mate. Our talk could wait for tomorrow. Right now I just needed her.

Flipping us over tucking her body underneath mine. I loved the feeling of her under me. The only problem was her clothes were still on. Growling I began to pull at her shirt.

“Oh you are so impatient. Clothes off now.”

Ah my mate was immediately naked. Like I said before that had to be my favor trick.

I have I said how much I love this woman? Well I do and I spent the rest of the night doing just that…making love to her.
