Its dark, and only the sound of loud shrieks pierce the air. I groan into Niko's chest. Is Kayley going to let Nolan cry all night? I take a frustrated deep breath as I climb out of bed. Niko turns over, watching me as I slide my robe on.

"He'll stop-sooner or later." Niko grunts.

"Now would be perfect. Niko we both have to work tomorrow." I whine, climbing on top of him. He leans in to kiss me, I kiss him back-feeling the fireworks flare. I've always felt them with him.

"I guess we could crash at the beach house for a couple weeks." Niko says pushing my hips into his. I bite my lip as I run my hands up his chest. He groans softly, then our concentration is interrupted by Nolan's loud cries. I'm never going to get to sleep. Alpha Noah begged Kayley to stay at the pack house after she had Nolan, and Rex helps every once in a while now that he's back, but this constant crying is becoming a little hard to handle.

"I know your dad doesn't want you to move out, but Niko were about to be married. We deserve privacy." I frown, falling beside him. Niko rubs his hands through my long black hair. I moan softly. His plump pink lips kiss my neck, making me forget everything I had just said.

"Your right baby, Why don't we go check out some houses on the next block." Niko smirks, rolling over so that he's on top of me. I smile wide, looking into those ash grey orbs he calls eyes. He places a kiss on my collarbone, then my shoulder.

"Do you really mean it?" I whisper, as Nolan finally calms down. Niko grabs the hem of my tank top, slowly pulling it up. His eyes fall to my bra. He moans softly, as his hands move to my stomach. He places a kiss just above my belly button, starting to move lower. He gets to the band of my underwear and kisses around it, teasing the hell out of me. Soon my shallow breaths will become loud moans. Just as he's about to slip his hand into my underwear-the alarm goes off. Nolan yells again, even louder than before. I frown as Niko chucks the alarm clock across the room, I hear it shatter against the wall.

"Hell yeah I mean it." Niko says, rolling off me, he heads for the shower. I go downstairs to make his coffee, even though we weren't married yet, we definitely act like it. His new job at the biggest local law firm keeps money in our pockets. I didn't realize how good Niko was at his job. I worked as a assistant for the pack doctor. We'd hired him about a month ago. He seems really nice.

I check my phone. Seven missed calls from my dad. He's probably pissed I didn't come home last night. Niko had picked me up for work, due to my stupid car. I fell asleep in his bed. I press send, and reluctantly but the phone up to my ear. He picks up immediately.

"Mel, do you have any idea how worried I've been? Why couldn't you answer your phone?" My dad yells. I frown, Turing on the coffee machine. I'd already prepped a couple nights before.

"After work I fell asleep at the pack house. I'm sorry I worried you. I was really tired." I reply. Niko hugs me from behind, putting delicate kisses on my neck.

"Are you coming home before you go to work?" My dad mutters into the phone. Niko's hands cup my ass, causing me to shudder.

"Yes-I-I'll be home in a c-couple hours." I say, trying to keep my composure. Niko's hands are slowly sliding up my thighs.

"Mel are you okay?" My dad replies.

"Yessss. I'm fine. I'll t-talk to you laterr." I say hanging up the phone. I slap Niko's hands away, turning to face him. He's dressed in a very nice suit, and god he's gorgeous. He's hair is still wet, but that just made him sexier. He smiles down to me, taking his finger and lifting my chin. He kisses me gently.

Alpha Noah comes down shortly after. I guess he smelled the coffee. I don't drink the stuff so they can have it all. Alpha Noah sat down at the table, He had on mint green Pajama pants and a white over shirt. I couldn't help but notice the crazy resemblance he and Niko shared.

"Mel, I didn't know you stayed over. No wonder it smells so good in here." Alpha Noah yawned, grabbing his cup for the cupboard. I smile wide, and thank my future father-in-law. Niko also sits at the table, waiting for the coffee.

"So when's the wedding you two?" Alpha Noah clears his throat, looking at Niko. I look over to him, to see how he answers. I frown when he shrugs. We've been engaged for almost a year.

"We never have time to talk about it. Mel always tired when she gets home." Niko scoffs.

"How could you blame me? You don't work 40 hours a week!" I snap back. Alpha Noah raises an eyebrow at us. We'd never fought much before.

"You work 40 hours a week so you don't have to be here with me. If you need space just ask Mel." Niko yells getting up from his chair to get in my face. Who the fuck pissed in his cereal?

"You know that's not true! You know I'm working to pay for our wedding. That's what we both agreed on, but since you're such a big shot you can pay for it yourself. I'm going home!" I say stomping up the stairs. I past Kayley, holding Nolan. She was on her way downstairs. I guess she saw how heated I was and ignored me. I slam Niko's door behind me. I slide on my jeans and grab my car keys. I sprint downstairs, passing Niko. He grabs my wrist before I leave out of the kitchen.

"This conversation isn't over Mel. Be ready to talk about it when I get home." Niko growls.

"Be ready to kiss my ass. I don't want to talk to you." I reply-snatching away from his grip and heading out the door.

What in the hell had gotten into him? Why would he say that? I know he'd been a little on edge with Nolan's crying, but taking it out on me isn't going to help. Thank god Max fixed my car last night. I start my ignition and get in my car. I wait for the car to warm up, rethinking the situation over in my head. I don't like fighting with Niko. He's sorta all I have.

I drive home, ignoring the phone calls from Niko. If he really wanted to apologize he would've done it before I left. My dad is a little surprised to see me so early. He's even more surprised to see me holding back tears. He pulls me close and hugs me tight. I crumble. I had never cried to my father before, not since my 13th birthday-the day I got my first period.

"Mel what happened?" He pulled away, rubbing away my tears. I gasped, catching my breath before I speak.

"Nothing!" I cry. My dad chuckles, as he pulls me closer.

"Did Niko piss you off or something?" My dad asks. I nod. He rubs my back, and sits me on the couch. He makes his way to the kitchen.

"I'll make some tea." My dad says, moving things around in the kitchen. I grab the blanket my dad left on the couch. He never slept in his bed. I pull the covers over my shoulders. The warmth takes over me. I'm asleep before my dad can even turn on the stove. This is a much needed sleep.
