Zeke *gushhhhh* ^^^

-----------------

After that night, the adorable boy was on my mind 24/7. I knew from the instant I spotted him in the noisy club crowd that he was my mate, and the whole time I had to fight my wolf from leaping up and mounting him like a wild man on the bar; in the sexual way.

I was draped across the couch, smelling of men and booze, too tired to find the willpower to take a shower. He said his name was Erin, huh?

*The next day - Friday*

I found myself out on the field, training and running with the pack. My dad, the Alpha, was sick, but to prevent news and gossip from spreading to other packs, I simply took his place and disguised it as a wish to get some experience before I actually became Alpha. Everyone easily accepted the lie.

I was so into the training, I didn't even hear Raven come up behind me. When she startled me, I whirled around and growled, causing her to take a step back.

"Sorry." I wiped my hands on the front of my tight workout shorts. "What's up?"

She rubbed the back of her neck. "Say, Zeke? You going to work today? If you're not, we're having a pack dinner; it was the pups idea."

I thought deeply, briefly forgetting about my newly discovered mate. "I'm not working, so I should be there."

The day went on, and we continued with the endless work. Today was the hard training day, so by the end of it we were all spent and exhausted. I went inside to shower and change, and I took a split second to admire myself in the mirror before getting in the water.

When I was done, I chose my clothes for the pack dinner. I decided on blue jeans and a nice blue shirt that reminded me of...Erin.

Oh crap. I was late to our first date. Gritting my teeth and ignoring my disappointed and angry wolf, I sent Erin multiple apology texts.

"You should treat your mate better! After this you may not even have a mate," my wolf admonished.

I hesitated, torn between my pack and my mate. I sighed; as his mate it would be easier for him to forgive me than it would for a ridiculous amount of wolves counting on me.

That was true, but why did the guilt seem to build instead of go away?

Erin
*2 hours earlier*

I paced, throwing clothes out of my closet, panicking. I tried different outfits on, and struggled to pick one. None of them were good enough!! It's been a few years since I've been on a date, and I wanted this one to be nice. I'm not sure why, but ever since I met him, Zeke's been on my mind nonstop, and I couldn't stop thinking about his eyes, and his body, and his smile, and did I mention body??

I paused, then giggled to myself. I was like a high school girl going on her first date. However, this girlish revelation couldn't get me to stop freaking out and spazzing.

I sent Cal a quick text. I don't know what to wear!

He texted back instantly. For what?

I paced. I'm going on a date!!

His text was even faster than the first one, if possible. Why didn't you say so?! This is an emergency!! I'll be over asap.

I planted myself by the front door and shifted from foot to foot. I could hear his footsteps on the stairs, and I flung the door open before Cal even had a chance to knock. "Oh thank god! You have to help me."

Cal launched past me and we raced to my room. "How much time do we have?" he demanded, and I glanced at the clock.

"Now we have about an hour."

Cal cursed. "Okay, let's do this fast." He dove into my closet. "On the way here, I brainstormed about your clothes, and decided on this."

He held up a cute grey sweater, a matching beanie, and dark blue jeans. "You want me to wear that? Whatever, it's good. How do you know what clothes I have, anyway?"

He rolled his eyes and tossed the clothes at me as I started to strip. "Of course I know everything in your closet. I'm your gay best friend, it's my duty to be prepared to dress you, especially for moments like this. Besides, I have a way better fashion sense than you so I probably know your closet better than you."

I narrowed my eyes, as I got down to my boxers, grabbing the jeans. "So what you're saying is you let yourself in my house and steal my clothes?"

He flushed. "You're the one that gave me a spare key!"

I rolled my eyes, and put the jeans on. "Not for you to take my clothes. Do you put them back?"

He came over and ran his hands up and down my bare chest. "Well, I'm emotionally attached to some of them, so..."

I sighed. "So you stole them."

"I call it extended borrowing."

"Stealing."

"Okay, you party pooper." He pouted. He glanced at the clock. "I'm assuming the date's at 7, so hurry up! Who is it anyway? Do I know him?"

I chewed the inside of my cheek. "You know the bartender, Zeke?"

He gaped. "That hunk? Everyone in the club swore he was straight. He never looked twice at a guy that came in. He's gay, huh? You lucky lil bitch. If I had the chance I'd drop my underwear and bend over-"

I coughed. "Way too much information!"

He smiled cheekily. "And then he would come up behind me and he'd-"

At that moment, luckily, my phone buzzed. It was already after 7, and I wondered where Zeke was. My heart was thumping in anticipation.

I glanced at my screen and my heart fell, stomach dropping. "Hey Cal?"

"Hmm?" he asked as he admired himself in my mirror.

"Can I spend the night at your house?" I asked gloomily.

He whirled around. "What happened?"

I nibbled my bottom lip. "He's not coming," I mumbled. "Something came up."

Cal's brows furrowed. "Asshole!" He grabbed my hand. "Come on, love! He's missing out!"

Cal led me to his car and sped off before I could even put my seatbelt on. Cal muttered profanities under his breath, and was talking about all the ways he'd torture Zeke.

Against my wishes, my bottom lip trembled slightly, but I fought it back. I was actually looking forward to it? Come on, Erin, really? You should know all guys are douchebags from experience. Tch, let down on the first date, lame. Idiot.

Can we go out later? Zeke texted.

I pursed my lips. Don't bother. I'm spending the night at Cal's.

My phone buzzed again with spam, but I turned it off. I leaned my head against the door and closed my eyes, dozing off.

While I fell asleep, my heart slowly crumbled.
