“I do but you seem to need your space. Colt said give you space.”
“Not that kind of space. Just wait for me to be ready for you to touch me like holding my hand. Just…
Physically be there but I’ll come to you when in ready to be comforted.”
“Oh.”
“Sorry. Didn’t mean to make you feel any type of way.”
out!
“I’m just figuring out how to help you. Learn you really. Don’t be sorry.”
“You’re doing a
a job”
I
I gave him a small smile. We just sat together for a few more minutes. “How’s
your arm feeling?”
“Sore but okay.” Alec sighed.
“Seems silly to have a birthday party on Friday.
“It will give something for people to look forward to after Ace’s funeral.”
“I didn’t give him a basket.” I frowned.
“Colt did. I asked.”
“Thank you.”
“Funeral is tomorrow at 10am.” Alec sighed.
“Hmm”
“Emmy has a dress for you.” It was like he read my mind.
“Of course she does.” I gave a small chuckle.
“It might be best if we show up separate. Emmy will go in a car early with you and you guys can sit
together as a group. We will be in the back of you need us.”
“Thank you for understanding.”
“Just make sure you come to me.” Alec sighed. His pocessive side was starting to show.
“Okay.”
“Come on. You need food before bed.” Alec stood up but didn’t offer me his hand.
“I’m not hungry.”
“Try? Please?”
“Fine.” I sighed as we walked. The stars started showing as we walking into the pack house. There wasn’t
as much activity as I figured there would be.
Alec took us straight to the private dinning area where two plates of pasta was waiting.
I ate about a fourth when I finally put my fork down and leaned back. “I’m done.”
“Okay.”
Alec surprisingly didn’t argue as he stood up. We went straight to the bedroom where he starting looking
for a movie. Grabbing some silk pajama set, I got changed in the bathroom. When I was done, Alec had
picked a movie and was in nothing but shorts. We climbed into bed. The TV was moved so it was at the
foot of the bed. Alec moved the pillows so he was propped up. Moving his arm, I curled into him, resting
my head on his chest as he pulled me close before hitting play. I was asleep before the movie title came.
on.
Then next morning, I woke up to text on Alecs phone. He turned over and replied “who’s that?”
“Dad.”
“What time is it?”
“8:03.”
“I should get up and shower. When’s Emmy coming over?”
“In 30 minutes.” Alec yawned.
I
Alec set his phone down as I went to get out of bed. Alec caught me and pulled me towards him. “Not so
fast.”
“Oh?”
“How are you? I can’t wait to be mated so I will know without asking.”
“I don’t really know. Sad… Confused. Maybe guilty.”
“It wasn’t your fault.” Alec cupped my face.
“Yeah.” I didn’t look him in the eyes.
“I’m serious. Keep your head up today. I’m here if you need me.”
“Thank you.” Alec gave me a soft k*ss that made my l*ps tingle.
*Felt
that did you?” He asked as I touched my l*ps.
“Yeah, what was that?”
“The mate bond. I have felt it since yesterday.”
“I don’t turn 18 till tomorrow.”
“Jasper said he felt a light version of the bond the day before Emmy turned 18.” Alec studied my face.
“Oh….” My spirit lifted a little having some clarity in it.
“Oh?” Alec raised an eyebrow.
“I assumed it would hit full force the moment my birthday comes. I didn’t realize there was a built up.”
“Me either. Jasper said he knew when he met Emmy that she was his mate. Remember how he was stuck
on her?”
“Yeah, I do.” It was in my tattoo shop.
“Are you upset?”
“About what?” I asked
“About being my mate?”
“No.” I scooted up so my forehead was against his. “Just absorbing it all. I wouldn’t have given you my
