I wake to Lukas playing with my hair. I'm snuggled up close to him and my cheek rests against his chest, our legs our tangled together and I have one arm thrown around him.
I lift my head a little to look at him, "How long have you been awake?"
"About and hour. Would you like to see my pack today? I have to go to the pack hall for business anyways."
"Sure." I beam up at him and he leans down, surprising me with a kiss.
"You can use the shower in here and I'll go to the one down the hall." He says as he stands, stretching. His shirt lifts up to reveal a pleasantly defined abdomen and I blush and try to force myself to look away but I can't.
"Like what you see?" Lukas grins at me.
"Y-yeah." I whisper shyly before pushing at his chest."Go shower."
Lukas laughs,"Okay, okay." He goes into the closet to grab his clothes and I head into the bathroom, shutting the door behind me.
Once I'm out of the bathroom and dressed I head downstairs to find Lukas and Serafina in the kitchen. Serafina is, once again, sitting at the island and Lukas is cooking something.
"You look like a domestic housewife. Do I get pancakes too, Mr. Housewife?"
"No, these are for my mate." He growls back.
"Play nice children." I scold teasingly, kissing him on the cheek as I pass by him. This causes him to look at me intensly and I can tell his wolf side is close to the surface and I blush. This time instead of trying to get on the stool I just lean against the counter. I glance at Serafina and she's just as 'on guard' as always.
"Lukas is going to show me the pack today." I say grinning happily.
Serafina raises a brow,"Oh? Is that so?"
"Yup! You don't have to come if you don't want, nothing bad will happen."
Serafina immediately shakes her head," I'm going no matter what. My job is to guard you and in no way will I slack, even if your mate is only five centimeters away it is the duty I was assigned by Alpha."
"Okay then," I slump some." I just thought you should enjoy yourself a little."
"That's not why I'm here though. I do not ' enjoy myself ' while working."
"Pancakes are done." Lukas says happily setting a plate of pancakes in front of me and then proceeding to sit me on the stool.
"I don't know how much syrup you like so show me." He says as he hands the bottle to me.
"They look delicious, what else do you know how to make?" I ask as I look back at him.
"Anything you want, all I have to do is find a recipe."
I open the lid to the syrup and practically drown the pancakes in it. "That's good because I can't cook."
"Well maybe one day I'll show you and we can cook together." Lukas nuzzles his face into my neck and I blush.
"Thank you Lukas." He growls lowly at me and I giggle.
"I don't think I'll ever get used to you saying my name."
"Jesus Christ just eat and stop flirting because it's making me sick." Serafina runs a hair through her hair before standing. "I'm going to shower, let me know when you're done ." Serafina leaves and I hear a door shut not long afterwards.
