"yes, what is it, and please don't call me that call me James." I say touching her shoulder.

"James what's a mate?" She asks, what dose she mean? she can't be serious, can she?

"Mom, Dad, Mark could you give us a minute?" I ask. they all silently stand up and exit the room leaving me and Beti alone to talk. "what do you mean 'what's a mate' didn't your parents give you the mate talk?" I ask, and she gives me the most adorable confused/sad look.

"My parents died when I was ten, and they never gave me any 'mate talk' so if you don't mind explaining" she says looking at the table. well now I feel bad bring her parents up, and this is going to be totally awkward. Where do I even start??

"ummm well... When the world was created, and the moon goddess creates werewolves she gave them a gift humans didn't have. She gave us Mates, and that's basically a term for true love. We were created for each other your my other half, And the way we show our love is by the mating process. Ummm, and normally the mating process ends up with the couple having pups." I can see her body tence up "so with you being my mate I plan on marring you, and that in turn makes you the Luna Queen to be." she sinks back into her chair, I stand up and sit down in the chair next to her. "I know this is going to be a lot for you to take in, just know I'm here for you, and I love you."

"I... I don't think.... I don't think I can do this..." she says shaking her head.

"Beti, don't say that. You can do it! I'll be right by your side to guide you." I say putting my hand in her thigh

"I...I..I need to go." she says standing up.

"Go where?" I ask trying to look her in the eye, but she just looks at the ground.

"Home." she says walking around me. I grab her wrist, and turn her around to face me.

"You are home" I say lifting her chin till our eyes meet. I feel sparks dance across my skin where I'm touching her. She's so hard to resist, everything about her is perfect! Perfect lips, hair, eyes, oh! and don't get me started about her body. I pull her a little closer, and I can hear her heart beat incress.

"what's happening?" she asks as her breathing becomes heavier.

"Are you talking about the sparks? Or the physical desire to be close to me?" I ask leaning in, with full intent to make her mine sooner instead of later.

"yes," she says, and I can tell she's nervous not really knowing what to do.

"It's the mate bond." I say gently kissing her plump pink lips. Fireworks go off and all of my attention is on her. We need to get put of here, before I do something stupid. Remember James, your the alpha, you need to have more control then the average wolf. I pull back and she is blushing, "Was it good?" I ask smiling at her rubbing her cheek with my thumb. She just focuses on the ground, so I grab her hand and lead her out of the dining room, and up the stairs to my office. "please sit" I say pulling out my chair. She sits down and I push her in then reach around her turning on my computer. "I want you to pick out our house." I say pulling up the map of all the mate houses available on pack land.

"Okay." she says softly, I kiss her cheek and leave the room locking it when I'm out. Just to satisfy Hailsons paranoia about losing her. I walk down the hall to my father office, and knock before letting myself in.
