Tom's Diner

[BladeRunner]

Then there was Her touch...

Austin again felt relief and warmth as Brigita wrapped her elegant fingers around his large bear paw of a hand. Life as leadership wasn't easy, the one's you love go away no matter how much you held them and your enemies remained no matter how hard you killed them. Though all of his goes were vanquished, the Alpha still has death as a competitor but even he knew that its spirit was a friendly one, but those who delivered it weren't. It was hard to let the past rest especially when one is so fond of its memories, and he held onto those memories and cherished them from the good to even the bad; it's what made him the man he is today. 

"Mm..." Austin let loose a low and soft grumble at Brigita's request, suddenly feeling embarrassed. He readjusted his attitude and paid more mind to the woman in front of him, saying, "I... Would not mind. If you do not want it, I will not force it up on you. It would help with a Luna by my side, but whatever you decide is up to you. Even if you choose not to be a Luna it would be nice to... Have you once more." 

That old flame was still alive and burning, though smoldering from years gone it was obvious that Austin indeed missed Brigita in more ways than one. Just as he was about to continue, Shelly had conveniently or inconveniently arrived with two mugs. One of coffee, and the other of the Early Gray tea on a small plate with two miniature bowls of a lemon and the other of honey. The older woman set the two down, the coffee in front of Austin and obviously the tea to Brigita. 

"Alright, sugar is against the wall there if you haven't noticed it yet. Food's on the way, so it'll be a few minutes. You kids need anything just holler." Shelly said straightening herself up and walking away into the kitchen.

Brigita remembered those deep grumblings in his throat. They always made her heart flutter a bit, he was dangerous and yet everything he did excites her even now. Though hearing him made her eyes widen as she squeezed his hand tighter for reassurance. It was like rekindling an old flame for real. She thought he wouldn’t want an older female such as herself but his thoughtful words made her feel better, more assured in her decision. His final words sent her flesh on fire as her breath hitched a moment in surprise. For an older wolf he made her feel young and desirable with that one comment. And yes she was young in terms of her human appearance but still it was nice to hear the yearning in his words. 

“You misunderstand… I…!!” She jumped slightly not having been aware of Miss Shelly coming back. The inconvenient timing had made her stumble over her words and be silent as she gave an awkward smile, the fresh scent of Earl Grey in her nose. “Thank you so much Miss Shelly.” Being polite as ever to one of the few humans she enjoyed being around. As the woman left she would turn her attention to the lemons in front of her. Brigita didn’t want to let go of his hand, her hesitance was evident by how she would try to at least have a finger touching his skin. It was almost desperate as she squeezed the lemons in her tea and added two packets of sugar. Stirring her tea the words struggled on her lips before she set the spoon down on the paper napkin and would release his hand. 

“Austin… I would be honored to be your Luna and what ever else you need me to be. I can see you are tired, it lingers on your brow and in your voice. I’m not a fragile pup and I know I can do my duties well.” Her voice was more sure of herself as she looked him dead in the eye; a glint of a lustful ambition began to take hold. “I’m trying to be a lady and not seem so emotional or starved for attention but Austin I have missed you so much. Even to embrace you once more would bring me to my knees. I want you, and I want to help you.” Straight forward and clearly her face was flushed but it wasn’t embarrassment so much as it was her wolf feeling for his. A connection only their kind could exchange. “So if you agree I will go through the rite and tests necessary.” Finally she took a nice gulp of the hot tea to calm her nerves as she laid herself bare on her intentions to the invitation.

At-a-girl.

Austin felt his heart slightly increase in speed as Brigita was as truthful as she always was. Her heartfelt confession struck deep into the large man, and of course she would accept to take on the role of Luna. It wasn't necessarily the fact Austin was struggling but rather it would give him some leeway for free time or getting important tasks done, the latter usually more than the former. But having a familiar face with tears of experience would greatly benefit not only him but the rest of Midnight as well. 

Of course, there was that burning desire for Brigita too. His first love and now that Austin thought of it, most likely his last, not only having the desire for physical touch but emotional too. He couldn't remember the last time he embraced someone and just held them quite like the blonde in front of him. Most of the females in the pack lusted and not in the snuggling kind of way either, instead they all just wanted to bang. Despite Austin wanting to just hold Brigita, there was that feeling of pinning her down but that would have to come later; instead he wanted to hold her simply again, this time just falling asleep in each other's arms like the old days. 

"Then have me you shall," Austin nodded and continued, "Trials and rites will initiate when you're ready one of these days. Thank you for taking this task, I... Was afraid of taking another Luna a few weeks ago, but luckily I have a familiar and one I could hold by the roaring flames."

Seeing the slight changes in his facial features had her give him a soft knowing smile. Even his shoulders seemed to relax at her confirmation of his invitation. She would put her experience to good use here and he would actually, hopefully, listen when she had decent advise to give. Unlike her last Alpha he didn't respect or like her either so it was tumultuous time. Still even through those challenges she got lucky and came out unscathed. First loves never truly die do they? He was looking at her as if time never passed between the both of them. It had been far too long since either of them had meaningful relations with others and still never getting what they truly needed. Love. 

Brigita would blink a few times coming out of her thoughts when he confirmed her wants. Her heart fluttering, her temperature rising, her wolf wanting to meet his once more. "Good...I think I need you as much as you need me." Another sip of the tea and she set it down leaning forward onto the table. Her gaze meeting his as she was leaving the table open half way for him to meet her affections. "I can be ready now or whenever. Afterall I'm going to be joining you in those roaring flames." Giving him a cheesy smile she would move some of her hair behind her ears and look to him with longing in her big blue eyes. "W-Would it be too much to ask for a kiss? I would even settle for a hug." She shrugged her shoulders a little trying to be flirty and cute for her Alpha.

"I figured you'd ask that, " Austin replied as he looked into those twin oceans he called eyes and said with the slightest smirk, "I swear, woman, you know how to kickstart an old wolf's heart. One day you might crank it too high and give me a stroke."

How long has it been since the Alpha looked into those eyes longingly? How long has it been since since they truly held each other, allowed their wolves to come out, frolic and play in the nip of night? Her lips were curled into a playful smile as she was ready for him to fulfill such a request. That was until Shelly inconveniently interrupted the pair, setting the plates of food and sides on the table without realizing she was interrupting something nice. 

"There ya kids go. Austin, three double steak and egg burgers with three baskets of Susie Q's and fried okra- You glutton- And Little Missy, I had the boys in the back whip you up some egg croissant sandwiches. If you need anything, give me a holler, I'll be on a smoke break." Shelly had done her job and was now leaving to go on her well deserved break... After all, running an empty store required some brain power! 

Before Brigita could speak, Austin pulled her forward by the scruff of her shirt and pulled her closer. Without any warning and all happening in a split second, Austin placed his lips onto the blonde's having grown impatient as it was. But it wasn't just some forced kiss, surprisingly his lips were soft despite his gruff appearance, heart ablaze and everything else. It wasn't just some old friend, no, Brigita was the Alpha's first love and first heartache. And knowing how she functioned, he assumed Brigita was more than comfortable with making out in the middle of a dead diner.

Hearing him joke made her giggle. She bit her lip looking at his lips then back into his gentle pools. “I mean at least I can give you on last good ride before you go.” She would pause and shrug a playfully coy action. “You know when you kick the bucket cause you couldn’t get enough of me.” Brigita had hardly changed. She was still flirty and knew how to be the woman and wolf he needed. That came with the territory of them being their firsts. 

How she wished to be able to just get in his lap and hold him like she used to. Arms around his massive shoulders as he cradled her in his arms like she was fragile. She loved how he made her feel a good balance of feminine and masculine traits; they spared, he was a mentor in that regard and she knew when to be soft and give a more tender approach. They completed each other like an intricate puzzle. Miss Shelly however had impeccable timing as always as it made Brigita back up and allow the food to be placed on the table. Clearing her throat, she became truly bashful as she moved some of that silky Scandinavian blonde hair from her pony tail off her braid off her shoulder. “T-Thank you Miss Shelly. It all looks so delicious.” It wasn’t false this was the best hole in the wall place in town even back when they were wet behind the ears. 

As Miss Shelly left, Brigita turned to her Alpha once more not even getting a chance to speak. she was lurched forward with his gruff grip making the tight elastic of her suit stretch and even caused the zipper to slip down some from the force. Their lips crashed into each b other as she was hovering over the table. Yeah these were the same soft lips that drove her wild, well wilder than she already was. Her wolf stirred and growled in desire as her skin prickled. Her hands darted forward to grab the collar of his flannel pulling him closer on instinct. After the initial surprised her eyes closed and she turned her head, lips finishing their smacking motion before moaning and parting slightly, her soft pink tongue licking at his own all while his well trimmed beard reminded her of how much she truly missed this sort of intimacy.

Austin was an excellent lover, that said he also knew how to entice and tease. This made Brigita putty in his palms as she loved the ending, loved how they would spend hours together on edge and not even take off a piece of clothing until their limits snapped. He was a master at controlled intimacy. Probably why he ruined her for all other mates. No one could make her feel so seen and so aroused than she was right now in this diner.

There was something that Brigita could do no other woman could, let them be Human or Wolf. Her lips accepted his own and she melted right into Austin's grasp, she even pulled him closer by the scruff of his shirt just to get a closer taste. A better taste. Austin's own wolf stirred and threatened to rip loose however he was far more in control than that, still if they were in the woods or in his room things would've definitely been different. 

Brigita moving her head slightly to allow better access past her lips enabled Austin's tongue to slither on through with both of theirs colliding. Wrestling and writhing, Austin kissed the woman until he couldn't breath no more, and hand happening it's way up her form and- No! Not here! The Alpha broke away to catch his breath, the woman's lips and taste ever so intoxicating like all those years ago, it was like nothing between them changed. And obviously the little witch still had her spell on him. 

"Ah..." The gruff Alpha breathed, finally sitting back to break the love making they were about to proceed with... And just in time too as his stomach growled louder than his inner wolf! Austin continued, "I should... Eat something. Before I go stir crazy and make a... Before we make a mess of the table." 

[love_and_poprocks]

Brigita appreciated his control. If he wasn’t in control she would have lost it as well. He still tasted like she remembered, even through the taste of coffee. Damn still scrumptious as ever!

his tongue was larger, writhing against her own, his saliva tasted so good. The scruff of his beard felt so nice. Back when they were younger he used to shave it often and it never got this long. His hand travelled up her side and she moaned into his mouth before he pulled them apart reluctantly. Looking at him in blissful surprise she gave him a cheeky smile as she panted. He still had that magic she craved. He was addictive. She licked her lips looking at his once more before releasing him from her grasp. Sitting back she would give a slightly pouty sigh as she knew it this continued it would be indecent exposure to the masses. 

“mmm you still got it Austin. My head has the spins again.” Referring to her old phrase she would tell him regarding their cuddle sessions. How he made her head spin and her world so much brighter. How did she live so long without him, this connection between them. Maybe he should have fought harder for her to stay. Her eyes showed him affection as she heard his stomach growling. This was a usual outcome of their make out sessions. Intense passion followed by literal intense hunger. 

“let’s dig in before our food gets cold,” Brigita would playfully scold him as she cut up her toast and eggs making a deliciously savory mix of flavors. She hummed and moaned in enjoyment as she just relaxed and felt more at ease with him around. Her foot gently rubbing against his calf once more making sure he knew she was still interested in being near him always.
