How She Tamed The Alpha

CHAPTER 10: Now What?

MAX

I'm not exactly sure in what all had happened last night but what I do know is that my wolf and I woke up this morning with a huge smile on our face and the best feeling we have ever felt in so long.....Happiness.

When I looked over to see who was on my arm, I have to say, it felt good to know that it was my mate. Also, the whole thing about her being a witch is actually really bad ass.

It's weird in a good way, how one minute I'm rejecting her on the inside and too afraid to let any of my walls come down, even just a little bit and then now, we are waking up in each other's arms and we both told one another things about our pasts that I know I she has never told anyone before, neither have I about mine.

I feel her starting to move a little bit in my arm until I see her open up her eyes and rub them a little bit before looking up and seeing me.

"Good morning." I smile at her while moving her closer towards me so I can kiss her on the lips.

"Morning." She smiles in return after kissing me back.

"You hungry?" I asked her.

"Yeah. I can make us some breakfast." She offers.

"No. I'll make us something to eat baby." I tell her and get up to head in the kitchen. 

While cracking some eggs and mixing them in a bowl then pouring them into a pan, I also get out some bacon to start frying in a skillet. Then I hear my phone start to go off. 

I quickly take it out of my back pocket and look to see who it is and see it's Pamela. Shit, I swear this girl is annoying as hell. 

"What?!" I asked as I answered. 

"Hey, you still coming over today? My parents are going to be gone for the weekend, remember?" She asks. 

"No, I'm busy." I tell her. 

"With what? Are you needing to help your uncle, cause I can help you." She offers. 

"No. I'm just busy. I'll talk to you later." I tell her before hanging up. Which was true, I planned on telling her that I found my mate. 

I put my phone in the back of my pocket again after putting it on silent and then continue finishing up breakfast. 

"It smells good." I hear Tori say from behind me. 

"I hope it tastes good." I joke. 

"I'm sure it will. Thanks for making it." She smiles. 

We both sit down next to each other and start eating as we begin talking a little. Turns out, we have a lot more in common than I thought. Once breakfast was over, we both decided to hang out with each other for the weekend and today I asked if there was somewhere in particular she wanted to go to and she said that she was needing to stop by a store. So we got ready and then made our way towards the store. 

When we arrived, I noticed that this was a shop that was for witches. I can't go in here. They aren't too fond of my kind, so i'll just stay outside. 

"What's wrong?" She asks me. 

"I can't go in here, my kind aren't allowed." I tell her. 

"Come on. That's ancient thinking. You'd be surprised at how many are out there that don't discriminate by what you are or what you look like. This place is one of those where everyone is welcomed." She assures me with a smile and takes hold of my hand, which immediately sends a jolt of electricity through my arm and throughout my entire body. 

"Okay." I tell her as I let out a breath I hadn't realized I was even holding. 

While walking inside, I could right away feel relaxed and calm. It was a good feeling for a change. Then a woman came out who I could tell was a witch right away and out of pure instincts and habit really, my wolf started to growl a little bit but I stopped him right away. 

"Who's this?" The woman laughs. 

"This is my...." Tori started to explain but was cut off by the woman. 

"Your mate." She smiles at me. 

"Yeah." I tell her. 

"You guys look really great together. I know you both will have a great future." She smiles. "So what brings you both here today?" 

"I needed to buy some more things." Tori says. 

"Alright. How's that necklace working out for you by the way?" The woman asks as she turns around and we start to follow her into a back room. 

"It's great. It has definitely helped and it does feel a lot better to not have to inject myself every night and morning with it." Tori smiles. 

"What?" I ask Tori confused. 

"I no longer have to inject myself to help keep me from becoming angry. She gave me something that allows me to have to just wear this necklace at all times." She smiles at me. 

"Wow. That's pretty cool." I smile. 

"I'll be right back." The woman says to us as she walks across this back room and walks into a door on the opposite side. 

She comes out a couple minutes later and hands Tori a deep purple drawstring bag. 

"What's this?" Tori asks her. 

"A gift. For the both of you but mostly for you Tori. There are a few stones and crystals in there that will help you both with certain issues and feelings as well as emotions. Also in there is a spell book that has all the spells that you could ever imagine inside. Even some dark. Then there are a few other things that you will need to help live an amazing life. Let's just say, whatever you want and need, there are things in that bag for just that." She winks at us. 

"Thank you but, if you're telling me what I think you're telling me in what is in here, how did you get them?" Tori asks her surprised. 

"I think you know the answer to that." She winks at me. "Now if you'll excuse me, I must close the shop early today. I have some things I must do." She smiles. 

"Okay. Well, thank you. We'll see you next time." Tori smiles as she hugs her. 

"Yes. We'll see one another again. Very soon." She smiles at Tori and then looks at me. "As for you, here." She tells me as she hands me a stone that has string tied around it so I can wear it as a necklace. "You'll know when the time is right in what that's for." She tells me although I have no idea in what she's talking about. 

"Thanks." I tell her. 

While Tori and I walk outside, I look at my necklace and then at the bag Tori's looking at. 

"Wow." I hear her say underneath her breath after quickly taking a look in the bag and then closes and ties it back up.

"What's inside?" I ask her. 

"I'll tell you later." She smiles but then her smiles disappears as she takes a look back at the shop and looks as though she's going to cry. 

"What's the matter?" I ask worried. 

"Something is wrong." She tells me. 

"What do you mean?"

"She seemed off. Not like the person I met the other day." She explains. 

I start becoming more curious in not what just she means by that but also, what's in the bag?
