“Fen, how are you feeling?” I ask as I search for her feelings.
“I’m okay. I feel weird, like since we shared all of those things. I feel more at peace.” She answers and I can feel it. I understand what she is saying because that is how I feel. After I am done with cleaning I walk towards the apartment. When I reach my floor Alarick grabs my hand. I turn to look at him and I see the love and hope he has in his eyes.
“Would you spend some time with just me? We can go to my suite.” He asks, hopeful.
“Um.. I need to shower and change. I haven’t changed since before yesterday.” I say and the small smile he held on his face dropped and he looked down. I felt a small pang of guilt for him and I sighed.
“I can join you after I have showered and changed.” I say and his face lights up and quickly grabs me and lifts me up and then plants a kiss right on my lips. I wasn’t expecting that so I just hung there, not knowing what to do. He quickly puts me down and his face is red from embarrassment. He takes a step back and scratches the back of his head awkwardly. He looks so cute when he is embarrassed.
“Sorry. I don’t know what came over me. I just got excited.” He says as he stares at me.
“I could tell.” I say as I start laughing. His face becomes even more red. I turn and start walking towards my door, opening it and stepping inside. I look back at him and he is still standing there.
“Give me 30 minutes and I will be right up.” I say and he smiles and nods, then turns and starts to walk away. When I get inside the apartment I listen to see if Maleena and Lucas are here. I don’t hear anything so I go to my room and quickly close the door. Somebody must have fixed it. I take a quick shower and change into some fresh clothes. I can hear Fen humming in my head. She has changed so much in the past few hours it is crazy.
“Fen…” I say as we walk out of our apartment.
“Hmmmm?” She asks.
“Why are you humming?” I ask and I hear her sigh.
“I am excited to spend time with our mate. He heard what we went through and still wants us. I can feel it.” She says.
“Maybe he asked us to go to his room so that he can reject us.” I say and she huffs.
“No. Don’t say that. I am not wrong and you know it. He wants us LeeAca.” She says and I sigh. Even if he does want us I don’t know how to react to somebody who does. I have never had to, everybody has always rejected me.
“Don’t worry. It will be natural. You won’t even have to think about it.” She assures me. I ignore her statement and continue my way towards his floor. When I reach his floor there are five doors. I am not sure what one is which so I follow his scent. It leads me to the far left side of the floor. When I reach the door I see that it has carvings on it. It looks to be two wolves howling under a full moon. I reach out to touch it when the door opens, revealing a smiling Alarick. I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t slept in days, but he is so sexy I could jump his bones right now.
I push those thoughts to the side and smile warily at him, and wipe my sweaty palms on my legs. Damn why am I so nervous?
“Come in.” He says as he opens the door wider for me to walk in. I walk in and his apartment is beautiful. It has a large kitchen and a small dining room. Everything is open and the living room is connected to everything. All of it matches with a light gray and dark gray accents. I see that the table is set up and there are candles lit. There are bowls of food on the table. He walks over and pulls out a chair for me. I sit down and see that he has three different kinds of pastas, salad, steak, two different kinds of potatoes, and a variety of vegetables. He takes his seat and I look at him questioningly.
“Are you expecting more to join us?” I ask, not knowing why there is so much food here. His face goes red and he scratches the back of his head.
“I uh. Didn’t know what you liked so I ordered a bunch of everything.” He said shyly. I smiled at his reaction. He is so cute when he is embarrassed.
“It all looks and smells good. Thank you.” I say and reach for the steak. I pile my food high and start to dig in. I haven’t eaten a good meal in a few days so I start to scarf everything down. After a few minutes I realize that he hasn’t touched the food on his plate and is staring at me.
“What?” I ask with a mouth full of pasta. He just starts laughing and shaking his head. “What? Do I have something on my face?” I ask again and start to wipe my face with a napkin. He is still laughing and I can’t help but smile. He has a wonderful laugh.
“No, I have just never seen anybody eat like that. You inhaled everything on your plate.” He manages to say through his laughs. I just smile and shrug my shoulders and continue to eat. After a minuet he calms down he starts eating as well. I go back for seconds and pile my plate high again. I see him smirking and shaking his head at my antics. Oh well.
After dinner we stack all of the empty dishes and pack the food in some tupperware. He insists that an omega will come and grab the dishes and leads me to a door. When he opens it I realize it is his bedroom. I stand there rooted in place. This is too fast. Too much. I don’t know what to do. Before I can turn around he comes up to me and hugs me.
“Before you freak out. I have a TV in here. I thought that since you haven’t slept in the goddess knows how long we could watch TV and sleep. Nothing else. Just sleep.” He assures me and I calm down a little. I have never slept with a man in the same bed. I only nod my head and allow him to lead me into his room. I see that everything is also tones of gray, but a bit darker than the main area. He leads me to the bed and I sit down awkwardly, not knowing what to do. He doesn’t say anything but goes to his side and crawls in. It is a big bed. It seems larger than a King size. He grabs the remote and turns on the TV.
“What do you want to watch?” He asks and I turn my head to look at the huge tv hanging on the wall in front of the bed. I shrug my shoulders.
“I am not one for TV. You pick.” I say as I climb up further in the bed, resting my head against the headboard.
“you don’t like TV?” He asks me and I shake my head.
“I haven’t really had time for it. I prefer to train, hunt, or draw.” I saw and he looks over to me. His green eyes sparkling.
“I saw your notebook. Admitadly I didn’t look through it, but the one picture I found was very detailed.” He says and my heart begins to race.
“yea….” I say, not knowing what to say.
“I’d like to see other drawings if you are willing to share them with me.” He says and I smile slightly.
“Yeah, I’ll show you sometime soon.” I say. He nods, smiling, and I see that he starts to scroll the TV to a show called Modern Family. Within the first few minutes I am laughing. This show is funny. After about an hour of watching TV my eyelids feel heavy and I fall into a deep sleep.
