Mia's POV

I woke up the next morning next to James. I could never grow tired of it. I snuggled closer to him, and he groaned as he slowly woke up. "Come on; we need to go to the training program," I said as I slowly detangled myself from him.

I started to get dressed in some casual leggings. James slowly got up, and my breath caught in my throat as I ran my eyes down his body. He was way too perfect for me. "Stop looking at me like you want to eat me." He teased me, and I smiled.

"Make you shouldn't look good enough to eat then." I teased, and he laughed. We both walked out to the kitchen, where my dad had some cereal set out for us. We ate breakfast together before my dad left to go to school.

I then lead James down to the lawn where the training program was being held. Greyson, the leader of the program, lead the class with no mention of us standing in the back. The participants seemed eager to do well. After a while, I lead James away. 'Good job Greyson.' I told him through mind link.

James and I went to go visit Reba before she needs to go to school. She was happy to see James, and he immediately bent down to her level. Reba wanted to play restaurant, and James obliged. My aunt and I talked while watching them.

"James seems like a different person now." My aunt told me, and I smiled.
"I like to think we both are different people because of each other."
"Your dad seems to agree, and he is really proud of you guys."

"I went to Mom's meadow with him last night."
"I'm sure she would feel proud of you too." I hugged her and then Reba needed to go to school. James and I left to go to the office. Ben was sitting at his desk and smiled at us.

I sat down on the desk while James leaned on the desk. "You know I can't do anything while you stare at me," I complained, and James laughed. "I'm going to leave; I'm going to start to get to know our pack."
"I like it when you say our pack."

We smiled at each other, and he gave me a goodbye kiss before leaving. I watched him as he left and sighed before getting back to work. We were catching up on paperwork before the pack started to plan for the Italian restaurant. Ben and I knocked out the paperwork and took a break for lunch.

Ben and I joined James for lunch. We sat at our picnic home table with the pack members. "No way, Star Trek is so much better," Ben yelled at James, and I sighed. I didn't want to be in the middle of this ridiculous fight.

"Mia, tell Ben that he is so wrong it hurts."
I rolled my eyes since I basically have to since James is my mate. "Ben, you're wrong," I said with no enthusiasm. James laughed and kissed me.

"Whatever, Mia," Ben said.
"We should do a marathon one of these days," James suggested, and I wanted to kill him. I liked his nerdy side but couldn't stand it for how many hours that would take.

"I'm totally in." Ben agreed, and they both turned to me. "We have to do a Harry Potter marathon first," I said, and they both surprisingly agreed. At least I won something.

"So, what house are you in?" Ben asked James.
"Slytherin, you?"
"Ravenclaw." They both turned to me.
"Gryffindor, duh," I said, and they laughed.

We finished lunch talking about Harry Potter. After we were done, James went to talk to my dad. Ben and I went back to our office. The day quickly went by until I saw James again at home.

He greeted me at the door with a big grin. "Do you want to go on a date with me tonight?" He asked, and I smiled. "Yes!" I threw my arms around him and gave him a passionate kiss.
