Chapter 43

Alvin's P.O.V

Today is the day I will officially bring Emily out on a date after she has accepted me, I must not screw up.

"If you screw this up I will screw your brains up." Eric my wolf warned me and I mentally rolled my eyes.

We got on to the car and without giving her the location I drove all the way to my secret hideout, actually, it isn't so secret anymore. I used to come here when I feel stressed or feeling too emotionally overwhelmed but after inviting Ricky and Ryder over, the news about my hideout spread like wildfire. Once we've reached the place, I invited her in and presented her with a table full of food, I tried my best to make it as fancy as possible and I even called up my mom to ask her for cooking tips. The place was decorated with balloons and proud to say, I did it all by myself because I do not want to disturb Ryder as he had just found his mate furthermore his mate is like a lioness, and I am still slightly mad at Ricky.

How dare he marked Carly, she is only 16, far from even being barely legal! Big breathe happy thoughts, with that I calmed myself and I went over to pull out Emily's chair so she could sit, but pleasantly surprising she tripped and fell above me so currently, we are in a very compromising position. I had my hands all wrapped up around her tiny waist while she has her head against my chest. Her lower crotch was pressing up against me and it was causing an arousing reaction down south, she lifted her head up to look at me while we were still laying on the floor and her face was full on red like a tomato which made her absolutely adorable.

"Mark mate, do it!" Eric was wolf whistling and yelling at me to mark her in my head.

"Stop ruining the moment." I huffed out at him through my head and I tuned him out. As Emily was about to get up her position was even more enticing, now she has both legs at each side of my hips while she was sitting up straight seeming to be trying to get up. Her little movements caused an even bigger reaction towards my arousal which I think she realized because her face just got redder than before.

"S-Sorry." Her sweet melodic voice squeaked out.

"It is alright princess, but if you do not want me taking you right now, I think it is wiser for you to hurry get up." I chuckled and her eyes widened, she hit me hard on my chest which caused an oof sound coming from me before she got up and scurried back to her seat.

I got up as well and sat on the seat beside her and started eating.

"So. . . What is it that you normally do on the weekends?" I asked while she was chewing on some eggs.

"Oh, nothing much to be honest, most of my days are either going undercover and assassinating people or simply resting as I need to recover from some injuries." She had on a sad smile and her eyes dimmed. Shucks, I shouldn't have asked.

"Anyways enough about me, how about you? I've told you enough about my family and me, now I want to know more about you, we are mates after all." She regained a little of herself and her eyes seemed to have brightened, I just hope that the smile she has on right now is real.

"Actually, there really isn't anything much about me. Wait, do you know how werewolves came about?" I asked and it seemed to have captured her attention, she shook her head and was fully focused on me now.

"Ever heard of Zeus? In Greek mythology, he is known as the god of the sky and thunder and he is married the goddess Hera, but that aside Zeus actually created werewolves, or more like he cursed our ancestors causing us to be werewolves. Our ancestor is the son of Pelasgus, his name is Lycaon, apparently, he thought it was a good idea to make a meal for Zeus using the remains of a sacrificial boy. In a moment of rage and anger, Zeus cursed him and his sons into wolves. So that concludes our history lesson. "

"So you are saying that your ancestors were cursed by Zeus?" She seemed to be having a hard time believing as she was trying to process what I've said.

"Yes and I know this is hard to believe if you want to I can bring you to our library later on and show you more about our history, this pack has been started up by my great great great great grandfather and the library only started during my grandfather's generation but there are still quite a few books in it that records our history.

"No it is alright, I was just amazed, I trust you."

We both locked eyes for a moment and within that few brief seconds something just clicked, I leaned in and she did not make any attempts to back off, I took it as a sign that it was okay to initiate a kiss. I bend closer and her eyes closed, the next moment I feel her sweet tender moist lips against mine, sparks exploded as I moved my lips against hers. The kiss lasted for a minute before we opened our eyes and caught our breaths.

"I love you, Emily, I know you might think this is going too fast but I do, I love you with all my heart, my soul and my mind. You don't have to say it back but I just wanted you to know how I feel." I looked at her eyes and told her hoping she could feel how sincere I am when I said it as everyone knows that the eyes are the windows to one's soul.

"I-I. . ."
