*****TRIGGER WARNING*****
This chapter contains dark themes. If you are easily triggered or dont fare well with dark themes, please discontinue reading this chapter
Streams of golden hues pour into the bedroom when I open my eyes. For Theo having such a luxurious house, his blinds sucked ass. If I wasn't so happy from the night before, I would have had a problem from waking up so early on a Saturday morning.
The remnants of last night were branded in my body and my mind, and I couldn't be more happy about it. Theo and I were mated now. There wasn't a part of me that wasnt his, and a part of him that wasn't mine. And it felt damn good.
Already I felt the effects of the bond. Though he contently slept peacefully next to me, I felt his happiness in my chest as if it were my own. Im sure I would have to learn all about how this changed my scent and what else I needed to know about being mated to a werewolf from here on out.
Upon looking at his relaxed face, I decide not to torture him as well with waking up early on a Saturday. It's already bad he doesn't sleep enough as is. I maneuver around his unmoving body and excuse myself to his bathroom. Once I relieve myself, I start a shower and hop in while my day formulates in my head.
My mother hadnt called me or texted me once since I reached out to her, and I was ready to not just confront her about that, but whatever the hell Alosious was referring to. I wasn't entirely sure if it was all a hoax to get me to listen to him, but regardless I was tired of not demanding respect. I had just started speaking my mind with my mom, and I needed to make sure that she wasn't going to back away once I started calling her out on her shit.
Because I had a lot more where that came from.
I felt a pair of arms sake around my waist, and instead of jumping, I welcomed the feeling his hands brought. It was almost as if I had a sixth sense now that our bond was solidified, I knew it was Theo before I even turned around.
"You know, with all the money you have you could invest in some more state of the art blinds that don't wake you up at 8:30 in the morning."
His husky chuckle vibrates through me. "Well good morning to you too."
I turn around and smile at him. Placing both of my arms around his neck, I sigh. "Sorry. I guess Im a little bitter, I value my sleep."
"Mm, clearly. Ill try my best to make it up to you."
His lips descend to mine and as always, leave sparks in their wake. They mold with mine so well that I dont feel like I could pull away even if I wanted to. I was enamored and entranced.
Finally, I remember my plan and decide its best to pull away before he gets the best of me. "I need to go speak to my mother today."
He frowns, whether it be from the loss of contact or from my statement. "Are you sure?"
I nod. "We both knew this needed to happen sooner or later. I cant keep putting it off. When I come back, we can regroup with the others and decide how to go about the coordinates."
Though he may not realize it, his hands tighten around my waist as he goes into protective mode. "She hasnt left the house since yesterday, so she must be home. I hate to send you back to her, but I understand why you want to speak to her." He pauses, and looks my face over. "Do you want me to come?"
I shake my head. I need to do this alone. And he knows that.
When we get out of the shower, which is much longer than I intended, Theo calls the guards posted outside her house to make sure they are aware of my arrival. I quickly get dressed so Theo cant decide he's not done with me yet, and head downstairs.
