Midnight Kiss

Chapter 8

Thomas

I watched my mate practically fly out of the car. She was very mysterious about her family, and I could tell she didn't want to talk about them right now. Maybe when she got more comfortable around me.

20 minutes later after our pizza was ordered and we were munching on breadsticks, we all sat around laughing.

It was great just being normal for once. With me turning 18 in a few months, my father had me training to be the alpha. Plus senior year of high school. Oh and now I've found out witches exist, most of them hate us werewolves, and I'm mated to one. Another plus, my father told me I had to keep my walls up and keep other pack members out so they didn't find out the secret.

Yeah I was stressed.

Someone told a joke I missed. But I didn't miss the most beautiful laugh in the whole world. Her pink lips parted revealing perfect white teeth, as her hearty laugh escaped. For the rest of my life I wanted nothing more than to be able to make my mate laugh.

Just as the laughing calmed down our pizza arrived.

"Yay, I'm starving" Aza said digging into our chicken bacon ranch pizza. We were surprised to find among similiar pizza tastes we had a lot in common.

"So do you girls go to our school? If so where have you been hiding from us?" Patrick asked putting his arm around Camryn's waist.

"We had to go to the all girl school" Aza said.

"Yea, part of the stsy a secret from you males," Cam added trying notto say much in public.

"Ahh that" I said.

"Yep. But you know Cam, I think we should consider switching to the public school. You know, to get better opportunities" she said winking at us.

"Yeah right! Like my mom would let me do that" Cam said. "Unless your mom used her mind manipulation powers to make her change her mind" she quietly joked so just our booth could hear.

"Haha, I'll ask her to" Aza replied

We finished eating and paid then went back to the car.

"So, the nights still young. How about we go to one of our houses and watch a movie?" I suggested, desperately wanting my mate to say yes. I was not ready to leave her yet.

"Sure, I'd love too" Aza said. I noticed a blush creeping up her perfect neck. Damn I wanted to mark her.

"You guys sure your parents won't mind?" I asjed clarifying. It was already close to 9

"Oh yea. We're both 17. For witches we get to make our own decisions once we turn 16." Aza replied

"Though I don't think my mom got that memo" Camryn said. "She's always down my throat about everything. But she knows even if I take off for a few days I always go back"

I heard Patrick let out a low growl. It was too low and quiet for anyone but me to hear.

"Easy Patrick." I warned him in our link.

He didn't reply, just nodded.

"So what movie should we watch girls?" I asked trying to give Patrick a moment to compose.

Aza and Camryn whipped their heads to look at each other. An evil smile played at their lips.

"Should we?" Aza questioned

"Oh of course" Camryn said agreeing.

"Thomas I don't like that look" Patrick said.

"MEAN GIRLS!" They both shouted as we got back into the car.

"Oh God."

"Please no" we begged

"You gave us the choice! It's our favorite!" Aza said

"No more movie privileges for you" I teased.

"So I assume we can go to your place?" She asked timidly

"Yea there's no way in hell we can bring two werewolves to our land" Camryn added.

"Yea no problem. Our parents won't care. They know how important it is for mates to be together. Plus we get our own little pack house. Its still close to mom and dad, and they come over whenever, but still. It gets us ready for leading our own pack."

"Aza. That's what we need to do. We need our own place." Camryn said as we started back to the pack house.

"Just move in with us" Patrick said.

Oh my god he has the worst ideas ever. 

Not that I didn't want to always be with my mate. But two non-werewolves wouldn't understand the mate bond on the same level as we did. They would (hopefully) feel a pull to us, but it wouldn't be as strong.

"I'll keep it in mind when my mom goes crazy" Camryn said reaching over for Patrick's hand.

Aza stayed quiet for the rest of the ride.

25 minutes we pulled up to the pack house.

"A small pack house my ass" Aza said.

I laughed at her shock.

"Compared to your house, it is small. I think your closet alone is the same size" I teased.

"Is not!" She defended smacking my arm. "It might be a little big, but we charmed the house to make it so. Your house is big through natural ways."

I grabbed her hand leading her into the living room where we flipped on Netflix, putting the movie on.

"So only you and Patrick live her or what?" Aza asked

"Nah, all the upper rank members, their mates, and then some of the upper warriors." I told her

"Wait, you're an upper ranker?" She asked

"Yes. I'm alpha, and Patrick is beta. Well future ones." I said laughing a little at the shocked expression on her face.

"Holy crap" she finally says.

"Azalea shush. Our movie is on!" Camryn said

"Yea hush if I have to watch this I want to hear it" Patrick said

"They're cranky movie watchers" Aza said giggling and snuggling into me.

"Yes they are." I agreed holding her tight.
