The Last Crescent

Chapter 19

Greyson

I wake up next to my mate and a barrier of pillows; nevertheless, I'm in bliss. I can tell I have to be patient with her. I look over to find her still sleeping peacefully. Gosh, she's so beautiful even when asleep, I can't help but stare. I hear a light knock on the door. I carefully get out of bed, trying to wake her.

I open the door to find our breakfast and a note

Meeting at 10 brings Neoma with you.
~ Dad

I thought I'd get at least a few days with her to myself; I wonder what the hell is so important for my father to ask me to meet him.

I pick up the breakfast and place it on the table. I look over to ensure she sleeps and head out on the balcony. I look out to the courtyard, seeing some packmates cleaning up from yesterday's festivities and my grandmother watering the precious roses my grandfather planted for her.

She's up, my wolf says in excitement.

I hear her get out of the bed and head to the bathroom. Go with her, my wolf begs. I want her.

Trust me, I know you do, but it's not time yet, my wolf growls.

I hear the shower start. I turn my head back into the room. She has the door slightly open, giving me a perfect view of her in the shower, water flowing down from her hair down the arch of her back and the curve of her breast.

Fuck she's sexy, I wonder if she's doing this on purpose. I don't like to be teased, but she'll learn that soon enough. I push the door open, and she doesn't jump; she's doing this on purpose. I walk in and grab my toothbrush. I can see her peeking through the mirror at me. Two can play, and this game. I start brushing my teeth, keeping my eyes on her; every time she peeks at me, I wink at her.

I take off my pants and join her in the shower. She gasps. "What the hell are you doing?" she yells; I ignore her and get under the water. "showering problem?" I grab the lofa from her. "Yes, I was in here. You can't just get in the Goddamn shower with me!" I turn to her. She tries not to look down, but that doesn't stop me; her breasts are small and perfectly shaped. She's toned but not too muscular, and her butt certainly makes up for what her breast may lack but makes it hard for me to resist grabbing each cheek with my palm. "You could look down if you want. It's yours, after all," she sucks her teeth. "Just as you're mine now. If I feel like showering and you happen to be in there first, I will join you. It's better for the environment, after all." she stares me down and I return the lofa.
"Smart ass," she whispers

She finishes showering and gets out; it looks like I won her little game.

Neoma

Leave it to the gods to create an asshole for me, my mate. Thanks for that. I put on one of the robes in the closet and put random hair products pre-stocked in the bathroom in my hair while it is still wet. That way, it could air dry, and I don't have to worry about styling it until then. I sit at the table and start eating the breakfast there for us. I'm starving. He exits the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. He grabs a piece of bacon off his plate. "when you're done, put on some clothes. We're going to be late," he orders. "For what?" I ask him. He walks into the closet, ignoring my question. I wouldn't say I like it when people do that. "Hello, I asked a fucking question: do you not speak English?" He continues to ignore me. "Maybe I am not being understood. How about French pourquoi allons-nous être en retard?" He still doesn't answer. "maybe Spanish then ¿para qué vamos a llegar tarde?" At this point, he must be trying to piss me off. "I know five different dialects, so just let me know which one works for you so I can get my answer." he gets out of the closet, fully dressed in dark blue jeans and a black long-sleeve shirt. He smirks at me. "You're cute when you're pissed?" I roll my eyes at him; why does he have to be an asshole, a sexy asshole but an asshole? "My father requested a meeting with both of us at ten which is in 5 minutes, so get dressed," while I don't like being ordered around, I don't want to piss off the man that's letting my family stay here. I go into the closet. There's a bag on the floor filled with some of the clothes Ava gave me. I pull out some black jeans, take one of his flannel shirts, and put it on, leaving the top 4 buttons loose and tucking one side into the pants. I put on my old sneakers I got off at a yard sale two years ago.
