Scent of a Mate

Chapter 11

Ricky
----------------------------------------------

Who gives a girl 4 minutes and 30 seconds to get ready?!

On a normal day I would have taken a minimum of 45 minutes, but there I was frantically running around my mate's room looking for anything to wear before he barged in and dragged me out to meet the Alpha half naked. Thank God the man brought the duffle bag I packed when I ran away.

Out side the door I heard Nate yell:

"3 minutes!"

What?! I literally just found my duffle bag!

I ripped it open and pulled out some clean underwear and a bra. I was about to take my shirt off when I remembered the lanyard.

Right. Do this quick but don't kill yourself.

I quickly but carefully tucked the lanyard into my shirt and then pulled it off of me.

Mission accomplished.

"2 minutes!"

I inwardly groaned because this lanyard just made my life ten times harder. I started was looking for a pair of jeans but all I could find were shorts.

"Oh my God! I am a slut." I grumbled silently.

When I finally found a pair of jeans, I started to wrestle them on.

"Why are they so tight?!" I squealed between tugs.

"45 seconds!"

"WHAT?!" I screamed and I swear to the God above I heard him chuckle through the door.

I frantically found a pair of black sneakers and shoved them on my feet and then looked for the
non-sluttiest shirt I could find.

"10-9-8..."

I started to panic until I finally found a t-shirt.

"YES!" I screeched

"6-5-4-3.."

I let out a little squeak and pulled the shirt over my head.

"2-1! I'm comin' in!"

I pulled my arms through the shirt just when he came in. I then realized that I had successfully gotten ready in less than 5 minutes, so I pumped both my fists in the air and let out a "WOOT!"

He looked me up and down and then pointed at my jeans.

"Your fly's undone."

I looked down and noticed that, to my embarrassment, his statement was true.

"Shít!"

I quickly zipped my fly up, and as soon as I did Nate grabbed my arm and dragged me out of the bedroom. He started speed walking me through an long hallway. I figured I was in the pack house, since that was were most Alphas and Betas live.

"Wait! Am I going meet your Alpha now?" I asked in anxiety.

With out slowing down or loosening his grip on my arm, he answered. "Yes. I told you I had a meeting set up with him at 9:00 am, and we are currently late to that meeting."

I then started to dig my heels into the carpet to slow him down. He turned around, let go of my arm, and gave me an exasperated look.

"What is it? I already told you that we are late and I do-"

"Would you, for the love of God, give me a break for one second!"

He seemed completely taken aback at my sudden outburst but I continued.
