Thomas's P. O. V.

I carried Shay to my room. I've got to admit, I have never seen a woman eat a whole and half pizza before.

I laid her on the bed and went back down to switch off the telly. I went back up, switched the light off and went to bed. I wrapped my hands around my mate's waist and pulled her closer. I inhaled her scent. She's like a drug, but she doesn't destroy you unless death consumes her like a lion gobbling it's prey.

I closed my eyes and let sleep takeover me.

* * * * *

My eyes fluttered open. I smiled. I want this everyday; waking up and seeing my mate beside me. For years, I've slept alone, control my pack alone, eat alone, cry alone, basically I did everything alone. Now I have a Luna, a beautiful girl who's probably younger than me. I did not ask her age because it's rude to ask a woman her age. She might be 18. I dunno but I love her.

I checked the time.

8:30 am.

"Baby, wake up..." I whispered into Shay.

"Shay baby. It's time to get up..."

I hear a groan, " What time is it?" She asked barely a whisper.

"8:30 am."

She groaned and rolled into my arms. She buried her head in my chest. "5 more minutes..." she whispered.

"Okay."

2 hours later...

Is it bad that I fell asleep after promising her another 5 minutes of sleep? I forced myself up, got ready and woke Shay up. She got ready and I drove us to my favorite diner, Charl's Diner.

"Hello, Thomas. Nice to see you back again. The usual?" Hannah, a friendly old woman, asked.

"Yes, Mrs. Harolds."

"And for the lady?"

"Um... I'd like the Bacon Supreme and chocolate shake," Shay said.

"Got it. Anything else?"

"Pancakes, Mrs. Harolds. Can't miss that," I said. 

"Of course, Thomas. You love them pancakes," Hannah said with a huge smile on her face. 

"Do you always come here, Thomas?" Shay asked.

"Yes, ever since it was open 15 years ago."

"15 years?! How old are you?"

"30. You?"

"26."

"4 years younger, eh?"

"Yeah..."

"I guess you've had experience..."

"What is that suppose to mean, Thomas?" Shay asked with one eyebrow raised.

"You have  fallen in love and have sex before, right?"

"Technically, I have fallen in love with my phone and had sex with my fictional boyfriend, Jon Snow. Of course I haven't fallen in love and have sex with anybody, Thomas. I'm saving my virginity for the one, which is you, by the way. Have you ever fallen in love and have sex with anybody berfore?"

"Fallen in love. Yes. Sex. No."

"Who did you fall in love with?"

"A girl in kindergarden. She hated me."

Shay laughed, "Why?"

"I don't know..."

"Oh really?"

"Well, maybe I was a jerk. I tried to be cool and all. Now that I think of it, it was a stupid idea."

"I've had boys asked me out before. Went out on a few dates, found out they wanted to get in my pants, dumped them, and refused to go another date again, until I met you." 

Honestly, I really really love this girl. It's not because I'm mates with her, it's because she's my type of girl. I mean if we were mere mortals, I'd definately hang with her. 

Our breakfast came. 

Shay and I gobbled our food down. She loved the chocolate shake so much.

"What is in this stuff? It's so damn good!" Shay said. 

"Maybe it has something to do with Nutella..."

"Ooohh... are you sure it's not cocaine?" 

I laughed at her. Apparently, she had a chocolate moustache, and it was cute as fuck. She wiped her mouth as her cheeks went into a slight tint of pink. We paid and I left some tips. We exited the diner and I drove home. All I wanted to do is laze all day with my mate but I had to go to the packhouse to settle some problems.

I drove my mate back to my house and told her I'd be back before 2 pm. I did not want to leave her alone. I drove to the packhouse. My father was waiting outside for me. 

I got out.

"Thomas, my boy!" my father greeted. "So, is it true?"

"Yes, father. I've found her at last."

"From what I've heard from your mother, she's a beauty and she's our neighboring pack's alpha's sister."

"Yes. She is a beauty and she is Howard's sister. Where's mom?"

"Dealing with Sophie."

Sophie is the 'good girl' of the pack. Every body loves her because she's a white wolf. Sophie believes I'm her mate, even though I've told her over and over again, I'm not her mate. She's THE most annoying person in this pack. Mind you, she's fucking 20 years old. From the age of 16 she believes I'm her mate. You can get your mate anytime, whether you're 5 years old or 55 years old you'll still get your mate.

I sighed, "She's still not over it?"

"Yes but I doubt that she'll try coming in between your relationship with your mate. Once she knows who Shay is, she'd shit in her pants."

"What make you say that, dad?"

"Shay's a fighter. I've seen her. Even as a kid, she trains hard. She'd pass out of tiredness sometimes but she doesn't care."

"How do you know?"

"Her father told me over coffee a few years ago and I've seen her train."
