"Yeah, there's a wild beauty about the forest. I love it out here." Tobias murmured. Even before becoming a werewolf he had loved the wilderness of rural Adela where he was born and raised. He hoped that Tessa would come to appreciate it as much as he did. Especially since now he was a werewolf and the wolf couldn't truly live without the wild.
When they came to a suitable spot he drew away from his mate and turned to her. "Alright, I'm going to strip and transform. Put my clothes in the pack and put it on your back. When I change, I will lay down for you to climb on. Stay low on my back and hold tight to my fur here," He indicated the places on his chest near his neck, "Don't worry about pulling my fur. I'd rather you held too tight than not tight enough and you got hurt falling. Just let me know if you want me to go faster, slow down, or stop. Okay?"
Tobias took a deep breath, feeling irrationally nervous as he began removing his clothing. Tessa had done more than just see him naked - and she had seen the wolf too. Maybe it was because now she was his wife and he was undressing for the first time as her husband. Not that that made much more sense.
Pushing through his shyness, the werewolf managed to get out of his clothes which he handed her with a sheepish blush. It took a few moments for him to be able to call on the change because of his nerves, but the wolf flowed out smoothly, eager to greet his mate for the first time now that she was his mate. The transformation only took a few seconds, it had used to take so much longer and had been a horrifically painful affair. Tobias was glad it wasn't anymore. He would have hated for Tessa to see it before.
The wolf whined softly, wagging his tail as he nuzzled his head against Tessa's shoulder happily before licking her cheek.
