Corrine

-Auggie's POV-

I sat down to manage our books and go over inventory really quick...I knew I needed to make notes on what all to order for our truck on Wednesday, I also needed to finalize the staff's schedules.

But knowing my mate was downstairs was a huge distraction for both my wolf and I.

Before I could even get started on any of my work, I got up from my desk and looked out the window.

I immediately saw her.

She was dancing alongside her friends, the three of them definietly seemed to be having a good time and I couldn't help but smile in response to the lovely smile on my mate's face.

But as I was finally able to tear my gaze away from her, I looked around and actually noticed all of the guys in the club tonight...and of course not only is my mate gorgeous..she's also unmarked.

My wolf growled and I knew work would have to wait.

Not wanting to look like an absolutely possessive psycho, but also wanting to shield my mate from other males I instantly made my way down to where the girls were.

"Having a good time ladies?"

The trio all smiled prettily at me and I couldn't help but feel better.

"As honored guests to the club...How about we move your party to VIP?" I offered. "More fitting for you lovely ladies."

The girls gladly accepted and began making their way up the stairs where I signaled for bottle service and then joined them.

Once up there the girls had their own private dance floor in a more sheilded space...up here I knew they couldn't be seen, but they could see everything if they so choose to.

I text the security and informed them the VIP section was closed off for a private party no matter how much anyone wanted to pay to gain access.

A bad business move maybe, but as a Mate I'd do anything to shield Gracie from other men.

'She may not like that.'

I knew my wolf was right.

Gracie is a strong willed woman and may very well get pissed if she realizes what I'm doing, I was risking pushing her away by trying to keep her so close, obviously I was being a little overprotective...but I couldn't help it. And things would be different if she bore my mark...

'Mark Mate' My wolf sound like a starving man desperate to sink his teeth in.

I shook my head, we both knew that wasn't even an option right now...if ever.

Once we got to the private area the girls got comfortable quickly as her friends began to dance... Grace pulled me over to the long sofa before she had me sitting down, and taking her own seat upon my lap.

"Something tell's me You may have gotten a little jealous of other guys watching me dance?" She sounded flirtaciously.

"Mmm, you have no idea." I said as I could smell her scent heating up from dancing.

"What an overprotective mate I have."

I could feel my gums starting to ache as my growing arousal from being so close to my mate while her scent was so overwhelming...It also didn't help that she was basically grinding on my lap with the rhythm of the song.

"Blame it on my Alpha Blood, Beautiful."

She giggled and got up just as Gio had come up with the drinks I'd requested.
