*Pic is Amber(yes I changed it)*
*Miami's pov*
-Saturday, September 19, 2:09 PM-

I stared up at Edward with a dumb expression. He was my mate? 'I knew it! We are his and he is ours!' My wolf jumped around excitedly inside of me.

His facial features darkened once again as he dug his face back into my neck, sucking and biting at my skin. "Miami," he said, and I felt his hand start to travel up my shirt.

"Wait, how?" I stuttered out a bit as I pushed on his chest to get him to look at me, but he let out a surreal growl, but stopped kissing me and was instead breathing in my scent. "I mean, you're the King for Goddess' sake. I'm only a Delta. How does that work out? You're supposed to be mated to an alpha." I babbled on, tons of feelings flashing through me. I was happy, confused, and kind of angry. "And why the hell have you not told me yet?"

'Don't you yell at our mate, human,' my wolf growled at me. 'He is ours and he always will be.'

"I don't know," he said and he brought his head up. I was relieved to see that his eyes were back to his beautiful color. "I've been researching more on the Prophecy, but I haven't found anything that will explain why we're mates- though, I wouldn't have it any other way." He bent his head down to lightly peck my lips.

"But why didn't you tell me?" I asked in a small whisper as I pulled away from his lips to stare into his eyes. Maybe he regretted being mated to me...

"I didn't tell you because I wanted you to like me without knowing we were mates," he told me and I felt myself become happier, knowing he didn't hate having me as a mate. "I didn't want you to be so overwhelmed with this. I wanted you to focus more on your school work and getting into the Kingdom. I wasn't going to tell you til I introduced myself to your parents, but then I saw you with him..." his eyes darkened and he let out another threatening growl.

"Hey," I said lightly and I grabbed his face with my hands. "Don't worry about him. You are the only guy that can ever be sexually appealing to me." I giggled and dug my face into his neck, breathing in his scent. My mates scent...

We sat there for awhile, in the comfortable silence, just allowing each other to bask in the scent of each other. His arms were wound tightly around my frame and I wondered how amazing it would feel to sleep in his heavenly touch.

"Miami, do you wanna go running with me?" He said suddenly, scaring me a bit. I hadn't expected him to start talking. "I mean in our wolf forms? My wolf has been dying to see your wolf."

'Do it, human! Do it, show him all of our sexiness,' my wolf commanded and I giggled before nodding towards him. "Sure, my wolf is being persistent as well."

He got up from his bed and grabbed my hands, pulling me up with him. I smiled up at him and he grinned down at me. "You look really hot in your pajamas," he said as he bent down and plopped a rough kiss on my lips.

I pulled away from the kiss and winked at him before I walked past him to go outside. I stepped over broken items, being careful to mind the glass. "When we get back, we need to clean up this mess. The poor maid will have a heart attack."

Him and I moved through the destruction until we came outside. Just next to his cabin was a thickly wooded area where we could run. We split up to different sections and removes our clothes before shifting.

My bones ached and I purred at the feel to finally be free in my wolf form again. At my pack, we usually shifted everyday to train. I hadn't been shifting in about a week.

I smelt and heard as Edward neared me. 'Wanna give him a little chase?' My wolf asked and I gave her a wolfish grin. 'Finally, you and I can agree on something.' I darted deeper into the forest, surprising him. Not soon after I started to run, he let out a growl and ran after me.

He was the King, so of course he was fast, but females we naturally faster and smaller than the males so I was just quicker than him. 'Miami,' he growled through our mate link and I purred at the sound. I liked the thought that him and I could talk to each other no matter what. 'Stop running from me. My wolf and I don't like that.'

With his words, I knew it wouldn't be smart to go against his wishes, seeing what he had just down to his little cabin because of me. I slowed to a halt and turned my head, gazing at his oh-so perfect wolf form. He was like my wolf, except his was fully black and had a spot white on his back. Mine was fully white with a splash of back on my back. His wolf was larger than mine, not surprising because he was King and and a male.

He stalked over to me and rubbed his nose against mine, an intimate move shown between mates. Then, he stuck his head into my neck and breathed in my scent. I had seen my parents do this and now I understand why. 'Miami, your wolf is so gorgeous.' He told me.

'Thank you, yours is very handsome as well,' I told him, pulling away to give him and wolfish grin. He replied with a soft growl and came to stand next to my side. 'You ready for our run?'

'Sure, beautiful,' with that, him and I ran through the woods in sync, keeping close to each other. Being close to him felt so right to me. I loved the feeling. I never thought having a mate could make me feel so in-tune with someone. We didn't have to talk. The words between us hung silent and there for us to see. Only for us to see.

Our time was cut short as he jumped in front of me growling at something I couldn't see. My body froze as I heard a female voice say, "Shit."

I moved next to him, despite the fact that he was growling and trying to block my view. What I saw, made my blood go cold and sent my wolf into a rage.

There, Amber was setting up another bear trap.
