"Mommy! Daddy! Wake up!" The young boy cried.
His eyes were filled with sorrow and fear. He had blood soaking his hair, a bruise forming in his cheek bone, and other wounds. Suddenly, shadows formed and tried restraining the boy, but he fought.
They started to take his parents' bodies away in body bags and he screamed. He screamed, kicked, and cried. He cried for his parents, begging them to come back.
His chest tightened and he suddenly stopped breathing. He plummeted to the ground, his eyes closing as his body fell.
"Hades!"
He felt calm when that voice reached his ears, one of the most beautiful voices he heard.
"Hades, baby, please wake up!"
Someone was shaking him, but who?
"Hades!"

I watched as he quickly sat up, his eyes wide and fearful as he looked around the room. When they landed on me he broke down in tears and collapsed onto me. I gently ran my fingers through his hair and kissed his head, murmuring soothing words.
After a while he calmed down and just laid there, sniffling and regaining his breath. I looked over at the clock and frowned, it was five in the morning already. I didn't move him though, I only hummed gently. His grip tightened as he looked at me, fear in his eyes.
"What if that dream comes back?" He whispered. "I can't see my parents...dead...again."
I frowned, this accident was plaguing his mind. This is the third night he has had that same nightmare and it was only getting worse. He goes from being happy or strict during the day to the broken shell of a man who was traumatized. After a while his breathing evened out as he fell asleep once again and I smiled.
The next morning neither one of us got out of bed, we just laid there as he mourned his parents all over again. I made a mental note to talk to the pack doctor today, I want to get to the bottom of this.
When he was finally calmed down and functional he got up and showered. I sat there on the bed, wondering what could be causing these nightmares.
I shook my head, I need to stop forming theories. My head is starting to hurt from them. I dragged myself out of the bed and walked into the bathroom.
I took off my clothes and stepped into the shower with him. He froze and looked at me while I just chuckled.
"Like what you see?" I teased as his eyes turned black with lust.
He grabbed me and pulled me close, kissing my lips.
"Very much." He whispered, his voice deep and husky.

Author's note: Short chapter, I know, but I'm currently in school. Hope you enjoyed it! I don't know when they're going to...you know...complete the bond. But next chapter is going to be a little steamy.
What would you like to see? No sex...but it can be close. Opinions?
