The tray had a lot of food in it. From toast bread to bacon to eggs, there was coffee too and a lot of fruits. Tears sprung to my eyes and I honestly had no idea why. I sniffled and he looked at me in worry.
“Did I do anything wrong?” He asked worriedly. “Is there something you’ll like me to change? Tell me, I’ll do anything you want me to do, I promise”, he said and I laughed through my tears.
“No, no”, I said as I laughed, “you didn’t do anything wrong”. I held his chin in my hands and placed a kiss on his jaw. “I’m so happy you did all of these for me. You’re a very amazing mate, you know that?” I asked him before kissing him.
After pulling back from the kiss, he placed his forehead against mine.
“Since when have you been awake? That platter looks like it took a lot of time”, I said after a moment of silence. He pulled back from me and brought the tray closer to me.
My mouth watered at seeing the tray closely and I picked toast bread, taking a bite before he could answer my question. The flavors burst on my tongue and I moaned a little.
“You seem to forget that we have to go out today”, his voice dropped and became huskier, making me stop what I was eating. “I’m sorry”, I said sheepishly.
“I had some help from Mom”, he said and I was confused. “What?”
“You asked me how I was able to whip up all of these”, he said and I nodded. “Talking of that, how’s Rose? She must be angry at me for leaving abruptly yesterday”, I said as I picked up a fruit and bit into it.
“More like she was worried about you. You said you had a headache and that was why you left yesterday”, he said, making me blush. “I wonder why I had to lie”, I retorted.
“Just eat. We have a long day ahead of us”, he placed a kiss on my forehead and stood to leave the room. I placed my tray aside and made to stand up from the bed but he held me by my shoulder.
“Where do you think you’re going, baby?” He asked with a frown and I rubbed the back of my neck. How do I explain that I do not want to let him out of my sight? My brain automatically instructed me to follow him, I did not even think about it.
“I thought you wanted to go and eat without me”, I lied, hoping that he did not see past my lies. When he did not say anything and kept looking at me, I let out a nervous laugh.
“I should have asked you if you’ve eaten, my bad. Have you eaten?” I asked with a shaky smile. “Yes, I have. Now finish your food, wash up, dress up and be ready in an hour”, he said with a tone that left no room for argument.
I ate as much as my stomach could take and went to take a hot shower. With one decision in mind, I made sure I shaved my legs and important parts of my body.
“You did not care about all of these yesterday when you seduced him”, Jasmine teased me. “Today is a very special day so shut it”, I replied to her.
“You won’t even be in your human form for this”, she reminded me but my heart was already set on what I wanted to do. “Mind your own business”, I huffed and continued what I was doing.
“Bitch, your business is my business”, she snickered and I just ignored her. Fucking busybody werewolf.
“Hey, I can hear you”, she said like she was offended and I mentally poked my tongue at her, shutting her up successfully.
After taking my bath, I towel dried my hair and left it to dry before walking into the closet to pick something to wear. Nothing of mine seemed to be right for the occasion and I almost gave up and wore anything before an idea popped into my head.
I went to Adrian’s side of the closet and picked one out of his numerous shirts. I put it on and I was dwarfed by it. I remembered a brown corset top that I had lying around in my closet and paired it with it.
I rolled up the sleeves and held it with his cufflinks. Something felt amiss so I unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt to show a little bit of cleavage, just enough to make him drool.
I took out my brown knee boot that matched the corset I had on and I totally loved what I was seeing. I curled my hair to give it a wavy look, applied some mascara, a little bit of eyeshadow to make my eyes pop and finished off the look with a nude lip gloss.
I smiled at myself in the mirror and twirled happily, ready to go on our date. Just then, I heard the door open and strong,steady footsteps that I’d know anywhere came closer to the closet.
I turned and faced the door just as he entered the closet and his eyes found me.
“You’re ready. I came to get a shirt, I did not know…….”, the words died in his mouth as he took in my outfit. He swallowed and his eyes became a tad darker.
“Is that my shirt?” He asked huskily and I nodded my head with a giggle. “You like?”
Adrian’s POV
“You like it?”
Fuck me if I don’t love what I saw in front of me as I entered the closet to pick a shirt. I knew she was in there before I entered because her sweet smell was all over the place.
I saw that she was already dressed but I didn’t pay attention to the details since I was so focused on getting my shirt and getting out. I didn’t want to be distracted by her in any way.
That plan went down the drain when I saw that she was wearing my shirt and she looked so fucking good in it, sending all the blood in my body to my dick.
My words died on my tongue and my feet moved on their own accord towards her. I held her by her waist and pulled her to me, breathing her heavenly scent in.
Her hands went around my neck and she smiled brightly at me, melting my insides. “You still haven’t answered my question”, she looked into my eyes expectantly as she spoke.
“If my reaction isn’t answer enough, I don’t think my words will be enough”, I said before kissing her nose. She scrunched her nose, adding to her cuteness.
“I still want to hear it”, she grinned up at me, earning a soft chuckle from me. “I fucking love everything about you, my Queen. Even if you wore a potato sack, you’ll still look drop dead gorgeous”, I said and she became red.
“You’re just saying that because I’m your mate”, she muttered and I shook my head in laughter. A woman will surely act like a woman, no matter the age. Luckily, I saw mom use that trick a lot on dad while he was still alive.
“You’re the most beautiful woman alive, mate or not. I’m just glad the moon goddess paired me with the best mate”, I told her and she blushed harder.
