Shopping

Princess Adrianna

Octavius kept to his word and took me out shopping the Wednesday before the lockdown he was putting me in. Brooklyn joined us as well, thankfully I'd have a girl here too. Octavius will obviously tell me I look good in everything because the man is so smitten with me.

The car met us out front along side another two so potential threats didn't know which one we were in. Brooklyn entered the first one, while Octavius and I got into the second one.

Once we started to pull away Octavius busied himself by looking through his wallet and texting.

"I don't want to spend a lot today," I tell him. "I don't like all these gifts you are showering me with."

His eyes focus on me and he shakes his head. "Nonsense. Just accept them, they make me happy so shush. I'd happily go broke if it meant buying you the finer things in life."

In all honesty I didn't know how much longer I'd be hanging around. When will be turn on me and find someone better? Like my previous mate did. There is always someone better than I and he made sure I knew that. I have trust issues, okay? When is he going to find someone better and kick me out. I don't want these things that are attached to him.

He seems to noticed the conflict taking place in my head and puts down his phone.

"What is going on in your pretty little head," he asks softly. Slowly getting closer until we are breathing the same air. If someone was looking in this would look like a very intimate moment.

I shake my head. "Nothing," I lie.

"Now we both know I am not taking that as an answer. I can see it in your eyes that you are thinking. So, please tell me."

I bite my bottom lip. "It's dumb and it's nothing."

He sighs and grabs the sides of my head and tilts my head down to kiss the crown of my head and then my forehead. "I'll get it out of you, but not now. I don't want you angry during our day out."

I nod.

He smiles. "I'm considering this a date, FYI."

His smile was contagious and I try to fight the one forming on my face. "Goddess, I hate you."

"I know."

The car comes to a stop and I notice how fast it took for us to arrive at the shopping center.

"Alpha, we have arrived," the chauffeur tells.

"Thank you. I'll call you when we are finishing up," Octavius tells and helps me out.

Brooklyn joins us and walks a few feet behind us once we enter. She wasn't trying to obvious, but I think the pack wolves know who she is and who we are.

I was taken back when Octavius's hand wraps around mine and he starts to guide me into a lingerie store.

"Octavius," I squeak.

He grins and raises a brow knowing very well what he is doing. "Yes, my beautiful little Princess? You need underwear for normal wear and intimate wear."

"Octavius! Stop! People can hear you!"

"That is the point."

Hiding my face I follow his lead. "And what size are you?"

"In what?"

"In everything."

I sigh and tell him my sizes, awkwardly. Not that I'm not comfortable with myself, I am. It just was weird, it made me uncomfortable as it is standing in a lingerie store with my mate.

Instead of shopping around with me, he left and went on his own to browse. Oh boy, I can literally wait to see what he has picked out for me.

Brooklyn laughs as I browse for myself. I was so thankful to have another girl here especially in this kind of store and situation. I am just here for new bras and underwear. I am not here looking for anything intimate and for the bedroom when that time comes. Octavius had other ideas and went off on his own to fulfill those ideas. He was looking for what I wasn't.

"I've never seen the Alpha this happy before," Brooklyn tells.

"Really? Out of all the hundred of years he's been alive," I ask.

She shakes her head. "The only time he showed a little bit of happiness was when King Damon brought his parents back from the afterlife for him. Yet, that wasn't enough for him to stay happy for long."

"And why do you think I'll be any different?"

Maybe he'd get tired of me too, just like he lost interest in his parents.

"Because you are his mate, of course the happiness you bring him will last him forever. He just wants love. His last mate, the one from his previous life didn't show him that much attention."

"I see and where is she now? I assume dead?"

She shrugs. "We don't know. He told us when he was in the afterlife he never felt her die or heard of her arrival in the afterlife. So it is believed she is immortal or something like that. Hopefully she died after he left the afterlife. Don't worry about it."

"Huh, and how would that he possible? The only werewolves that are immortal are this pack and the Goddess and her family."

"Hybrid," she whispers.

Figures, my mate's mate from his past life is a vampire werewolf. I just hope she doesn't know of his where about or that the Death Alpha is the same person. I already am having a hard time accepting this bond and him, I don't need another female coming in. It'll only make it harder for me and make me doubt myself more. I don't need another situation that took place with my ex.

And yet I am quick to assume she is a vampire hybrid she could also be a witch. She didn't say. I am just hoping it isn't a witch hybrid as they are the worst and they are sneaky and conniving. Knowing his ex she'll be quite sneaky with him. She'll manipulate him and try to win him back and be his true mate again. That's why many female's come back to their males when they find out they are powerful. Since most are power hungry freaks and they know they can manipulate them. Knowing Octavius, I know his feelings for me, but he'd be happy to know his ex mate has finally accepted him. That may blind him and he could easily fall back into her grasp.

Octavius found us in the store and gathered what items I have picked out and went to check out. Brooklyn and I sat on the chairs outside waiting for Octavius to come back out and when he does he has two more bags than I expected.

"What are these extra bags," I ask.

He smiles brightly, basically beams like a beacon. "Gifts, for you," he claims.

I shake my head and he ignores my protests.
