Chapter Three --- shopperific
Dom stared at me from the chair he was perched in,"that dress looks lovely."
"Yeah but I can't afford it. Besides what's wrong with my leggings." I frowned at him and began to rub my belly looking in the mirror.
The dress was made of a soft cotton fabric and had a cute floral pattern over it, it was a blue colour and then I'd got on a pair of Capri leggings underneath. They were white.
"It's fine I've already said I'll pay. Besides you can't walk round in massive jumpers all the time. Besides you had vomit on your top and I can't see the mother of my child walking round in tatty leggings."
Pointing a finger at him and frowning,"take that back Dom. My leggings are not tatty they are worn in and exceedingly comfortable."
He raised an eyebrow and smirked,"Dom, goddess I've not heard you use that nickname for years Willow." He emphasised my name with caused me to shiver remembering him growling out my name that night....
Shaking my head and staring at myself, as I smoothed the dress down over my hips. He was right I did look amazing, like I actually felt beautiful for a change. I mean when I'd first found out I'd stopped feeling pretty because of all the vomitting and stretch marks. Though on the plus side my boobs have swelled up two cup sizes.
Smiling at myself as I tugged my hair back absentmindedly to see if it would look good with a ponytail,"I like that one. It looks better with your hair up." Letting go of my hair and turning around.
"You don't have to pretend to like me or that I'm attractive." Walking over towards the dressing room, where I changed into the next outfit.
The curtain suddenly parted open and Dom was stood arms folded against his chest, while I clutched at the dress to cover my chest. A women walked past shaking her head and tutting at me, I felt the blush run all over my body. Dom shut the curtain and stared at me with the same look he'd given me that night just before he'd taken my virginity.
"Dom. Please don't look at me like that please..."He closed the gap between us and the strong bold gold ring around his iris gave away the fact his wolf was in control.
He growled at me and cornered me,"you are mine. No other males fading mark will change that."Gently his hands moved to my belly and tears started to well up in my eyes, I don't think I'd ever been shown so much affection,"this baby growing inside of you is ours. My child." His eyes softened and they turned back to that all to familiar chocolate eyes no trace of his wolf.
He smiled once more and glanced down at my stomach,"our child...." He whispered and got down on his knees before me to place his head on my belly.
This was bizarre the alpha was on his knees holding my baby bump in a changing room all while I was clutching the dress to my chest, he planted a kiss on my belly.
"I love you bump." He cooed and rose up to his feet,"I love you too and I'm going to take as long as it takes to convince you so. Even if I have to pretend to be a high school musical sleeping bag for you to show me affection."
Wildly I blushed and looked up at him, rising up on my tip toes dropping the dress to the floor as a year fell down to plant a kiss on his cheek.
"We'll take this slowly." I smiled,"we've got plenty of time."
"So you want to take me as your mate?" He questioned with a smile, a cute boyish shy one.
"I.... I... I'm not sure. Mate is a lot to take on, especially after being marked and then rejected." I sighed sitting down on the chair in the corner,"come on get out of here, people will think we're having sex."
Wiggling his eyebrows with a grin,"well we could give them something to think about. Give bump a brother or sister."
Frowning forming a deep v in my brows,"that's not how pregnancy works."
"It can happen."
"Yes within the first few weeks of conception."
"Now I've got a goal."
Shoving him out of the changing room and changing back into my baggy leggings and jumper. Shaking my head smiling and putting the clothes back into my basket, wandering out of the changing room. Holding a small white onesie that had Peter rabbit on the right side of it,"it's so small."
Blurry my sight spun slightly and I saw grey spots in my vision, gasping out loud as I then dropped the basket before feeling my legs drop.
Falling backwards slightly before Dom and another woman quickly came to my aid, helping me to sit down on the floor.
"Are you okay? We should go to a doctor!" He started fretting and his hands went into his hair with worry.
Rolling my eyes at him as I rustled round in my bag for a granola bar and found a chocolate bar. The woman was middle aged and grinned at me,"are you okay sweetheart do you need a glass of water? I'll go and get you a chair."
Watching her quickly waddle away and I grasped onto Dom's hands standing up with the chocolate bar in my mouth. Stood up, Dom grabbed my basket and placed the baby grow into the basket. Dom shoved his jacket sleeve up and I hooked my arm in his feeling a shiver of warmth run through my veins.
"Was that always there...." Staring at his arm curiously as I ran my other hand down and feeling the same sparks.
Giggling as I noticed the way he shivered and his cheeks were red,"please stop beautiful."
Apologising as a cute soft pink wrap jumper caught my eye, walking towards it before forcing myself to stop. Dominic instantly shuffled over towards it and scanned the hangers until he'd found my size. He threw it into the basket,"are you not worried about how much money that you're spending?"
Shaking his head,"I have plenty of money from being alpha. My family have plenty as we have our own business, I run the company now."
"Oh right." We walked to the cashier and I stopped dead in the middle of the Ile.
"Willow?!" My sister Elena waved at me a little too over enthusiastic and I rolled my eyes once I turned my head in the other direction.
