"Oh gosh, oh wow, what?" Mallory sat on the chair as we fanned her after she passed out when we recapped her with the information West told us.

"Uh, yeah. Are you sure you're going to be okay?" I asked, looking at her pale self. She looked like she was going to faint again any second.

"Mmhm. I think I'm just going to go back to the packhouse. Just to rest a bit more. I also think I need to shift, I haven't done that in a while. Probably why I'm feeling woozy."

"You do that." I helped her out of the seat, making Ryan come to escort her back.

"I should go to. Daniel needs me back home. It's our anniversary." Jen smiled as she opened the door.

"Wow, congratulations. Have fun!" I yelled after her, then went to the dark kitchen. The kids were put to bed early so I could do the meeting. Now, I had nothing to do.

"Done already?" A voice said extremely close to me. I spun around and made a fist, flying towards the voice. A hand caught it right after I registered who the voice belonged to.

"Geez, West, at least turn on the lights so I know who it is." I sighed and tried to pull my hand away. He wouldn't let go.

"Couldn't you sense me?"

"Yes, but I wasn't really paying attention to scents because I had something bigger in my mind." I tried again to pull away but this time he just opened my fist and strung his fingers through mine. Electricity buzzed through our hands when he leaned down to kiss each of my fingers lightly.

My cheeks were bright red again and I pulled away and turned to open the pantry door. "Stop doing that," I whispered, grabbing a random chip bag.

"Stop doing what? I know you enjoy it, Miss Alpha."

"Well Mr. Alpha, that's just the body reacting. Even if it's forced, it's still going to react. It's just natural. Doesn't mean I enjoy it." I babbled pouring juice for myself.

"But it reacts differently to werewolf mates."

"Whatever. Say what you want. I'm going to bed." I went up the stairs as he trailed behind. "Stop following me." I glared at him.

"This is the direction of my room too."

"Obviously I wasn't thinking clearly when I gave you an actual bedroom. Should've given you the couch instead." I muttered.

"Instead of sleeping, why don't we watch a movie?"

"We?" I repeated, putting a hand at my side.

"Come on, don't you do those things? You have a TV in your room right?"

"Yes...but I never use it. I don't have time. Wait, how did you know--"

"Awesome." West pulled me into my room and lay on the bed as he pulled up Netflix.

"You're crazy, you know that?" I chuckled quietly to myself. Mr. Sexy was always going to surprise me. I never thought that the Alpha of the Dark Moon pack would watch Netflix. Or, it could be perhaps that I was just abnormal...

"Crazy to hang out with you, Miss Alpha." I gasped when he pulled me to his side as we started to watch one of West's favorites, My Little Pony. Wait, wasn't that Mila's favorite too? Whatever, I was feeling extremely tense with his hard body next to my now seemingly small one. But, it felt right.

I woke up, the sunbeams just touching the tips of my bed cover. A large body was tangled through mine, keeping my face in its chest, almost protecting me from the outside chill. West. I guess we fell asleep during the show. His scent was making me excited but also calm.
