Hunter's POV

After I left Destiny in her room I popped into mine for a quick shower and to get changed. I mind linked my dad to ask if he could take over patrol because I wanted to spend time with Destiny so she would feel more comfortable around me. I was going to take her out to one of the pack owned restaurants on the territory, The Moonbeam, it was a large restaurant on the edge of town. All of the staff were wolves from our pack, waiters, chefs, cleaners, cashiers, bar managers etc. all of the budding chefs would get sent to culinary school free of charge as the pack funded each and every one of their tuition. I was going to give her a surprise there, right at the table. She was so sweet and adorable, how did I get so lucky to have such an amazing mate?

I heard Destiny's door open and close behind her as she made her way down the corridor. I finished changing and followed her scent down towards Charlie's room. Figures. I was about to turn back when I heard the sound of a slap. It sounded like it had a lot of force behind it. I ran until I saw Sadie standing over Destiny, who was sprawled on the floor with her cheek bright red. I snapped, Fang clawing at me to let him out.

"DON'T YOU EVER LET ME CATCH YOU DISRESPECTING OR HARMING YOUR LUNA LIKE THAT EVER AGAIN OR YOU WILL BE OUT OF THIS PACK BEFORE I EVEN BLINK!!" I couldn't contain my anger I had a right mind to banish her right this second but before I could she was fleeing out of the corridor and around the corner.

"Are you okay?" I asked helping her off the floor

"I think so, what did she mean you were hers?"

That killed me, how could Sadie say such a thing to her Luna? I was going to ask my father to kick her out of the pack as soon as possible.

"Nothing, she thinks we are a thing but what she doesn't realize is that she repulses me to the extent of throwing up"

"Oh"

Destiny's eyes glazed over and I could tell she was talking to her wolf. I wish I had marked her already then I could hear what she was talking about.

"Argument with your wolf?" I guessed

"More like an agreement" she replied rather smugly

"Oookkkaaayyy" I dragged it out wondering what she and her wolf could possibly be agreeing on given the current circumstances.

"I thought you had patrol." she wondered

"My dad took over because I wanted to spend some time with you"

The look in her eyes was full of love and affection. But I could tell she wasn't ready to tell me yet.

"Will you accompany me for a meal tonight?" I asked as formally as I could manage.

"I would love to most kind sir" she replied, mocking my tone and adding a little curtsy at the end. We both looked at each other and burst into laughter. I will never get used to her breath-taking laugh and I loved that I was the cause.

"So what time are we leaving?" she asked

"I'll pick you up at 7 from your room"

"Where are we going?"

"It's a surprise, I'll tell Charlie so you know what to wear"

I couldn't wait for tonight, I almost wanted to skip dinner and give her the surprise now but that wouldn't be special enough for my little Luna. She gave me a tight hug before disappearing into Charlie's room.

'I am taking Destiny to the Moonbeam, could you pick her out something to wear' I mind linked Charlie.

'I'm sure she can dress herself Alpha'

'I want it to be a surprise, please'

'Ooohhh, okay I'll find something for her'

I however had to worry about making this night perfect for my little mate. I ordered a black limo to pick us up at 7 for our reservations.

At 7 I knocked on Destiny's door and stood there, uncomfortable in my dress shirt and trousers. It was too hot for a suit jacket, as it was June, and I couldn't be bothered with a tie. She came out dressed in a midnight blue floor length gown with a little knot above at the nape of her neck, it extenuated her luscious curves perfectly. She had bright red lips which caught my attention along with blue nails. Destiny was truly a goddess sent from heaven just for me.

Destiny's POV

After hunter told me he was taking me out I squeezed him into a quick hug and ran into Charlie's room. Her eyes were glazed over so I knew that Hunter was telling her where we were going through the pack link. Her eyes returned to normal and she jumped as she saw me.

"Jesus, Destiny you scared me"

"I try, sooo... where am I going tonight?" I wonder if she would tell me, time to find out.

"I can't tell you, sorry Alpha's orders" I frowned "but... I can make you look like the Princess you are."

Charlie ran over to her walk in closet and pulled me with her. I saw an array of dresses in every colour imaginable. She looked over at me and walked over to the blue section. She pulled out several dresses, one in particular caught my eye it was midnight blue with a keyhole neckline in the shape of a knot. Charlie saw me eyeing it so she pulled it off the hanger put it in my arms and shoved me to the bathroom. I undressed and carefully placed the dress over my head. I looked in the mirror and it was gorgeous, it pulled in at the waist. It was quite tight so it showed off my curves and flat stomach. I walked out of the bathroom and was met by a screech. That was the best word to describe it.

"OUCH!! Jesus Christ are you a banshee?"

"Nope, I'm a werewolf" she added with a giggle.

"I take it that you like it?" I asked

"Yeah, now for the accessories!"

She pulled me back into the closet and over to the shoes. She pulled out a pair of black velvet pumps, thank god we were the same size. I put them on and tried to get used to the new height, I was sure I would at least come close to his huge 6'5" height. She pulled me over to her vanity and sat me down. Charlie spent whole hour on my makeup, a whole hour. She made my skin look like a china doll, no blemishes in sight. She added a small amount of rouge and a lot of mascara. She also gave me blood red lips. By the time she had done my makeup it was lunch time. Charlie called Alex to ask him to bring up some food. She dialed his number and put it on speaker.

*Hey, Babe?*

*Yes, sweetie.*

*Could you bring Destiny and I some food please, we're hungry* She said pouting slightly. She and Alex were so cute together.

*Why can't you get it yourselves*

*I'm getting Destiny ready for her date*

*Okay what do you girls want?*

*Two turkey sandwiches, mine with extra love* she added with a wink towards me. I could barely contain my laughter.

20 minutes later there was a light knock on the door, Charlie opened the door and was met by a heated kiss from Alex, who was still holding both sandwiches. I walked into the closet to find a bag so I wasn't interrupting anything. I saw a few but one caught my eye, it was a black Chanel 2.55. Charlie walked in and saw me looking at the bag,

"You can borrow the bag if you want" she stated.

I jumped into her arms and squealed,

"Really!" she nodded "iloveyouiloveyouiloveyouiloveyou" I screamed

"Hey, don't smudge my masterpiece" she said with a serious expression

We looked at each other and burst into fits of laughter, we stayed like that for at least 10 minutes before both of our stomachs growled at the same time.

"Food!" we both said together.

The sandwich was like eating heaven. God! The Beta can cook!
