Shiloh Paige;

"I'm selfish."

What?

"I just want you all to myself, I just want to keep you here in this bed with me. No one else." August whispered rubbing my cheek softly, my eyes opened a little but he didn't noticed.  He was looking out the clear balcony door: in a trance.

"But I know I can't do that. You want to achieve so much in life; which makes me so happy."

My heart exploded.

"I know you're awake Shiloh, I can hear you're heartbeat speed up." He spoke calmly before kissing my head gently and climbing out of the bed and shuffling into the bathroom.

I sit up and lean against the headboard as I listen to the shower turn on. My eyes wonder around the room aimlessly until it landed on an empty in-n-out bag laying on the middle of the bed making me chuckle softly at the memories.

We got to know more things about each other,he probably knows more about me than Lea.

I started to zone out, remembering
last night:

"I hope you're not allergic to strawberries." August mumbled handing me the drink making me shake my head softly

I smiled, "My favorite drink is a strawberry milkshake, thank you."

He let out a sigh of relief, "oh good, I just
got all of my favorites."

I looked at the burger he gave me, my favorite too. He leaned against the headboard
next to me as we began to eat;
"August." I began making him hum
in response with his mouth full

"Why is there two more burgers in the bag?"

His eyes glazed over to the bag, before speaking in a obvious tone, "Because I'm hungry."

I just giggled and shook my head, "When's your birthday? You never told me."

"Today."

I choked on my hamburger, my eyes bulging out, "Oh my moon goddess are you serious--I'm the worst mate ever."

He looked at me with the same serious face before bursting out laughing making me furrow my eyebrows together in confusion.

"I'm kidding princess, it's February 2nd. What about you so I can go all out." He asked drinking his shake making me glare at him

"October 13 and you better not do anything over the top for my birthday, I just want to eat
Italian food or something."

As soon as I said Italian food,
his eyes lit up.

"I love Italian--especially lasagna. My mom made the best lasagna, she had a secret recipe that was passed down the family. I've been trying to find it for the longest time."

"Same with my dad, he made tacos, I would kill to taste them again." I smile leaning my head on his shoulder: thinking
of him again.

"So when did you start smoking?" I asked asked as  I looked around the bedroom and saw a pack of cigarettes laying on the nightstand
next to him.

He tensed up a little before answering, "Most of my friends smoked a lot of weed in high school: they were hardcore stoners who always came to class high as a plane, but I wasn't like that. After being kinda bullied into smoking weed, I smoked some and was hooked on it; I began to wonder what smoking cigarettes were like." He paused to open the wrapper of his second burger,

"Then I stole a pack from my dad, so I brought it to school one day and after school we smoked some together behind the gym. I tried to stop but I just couldn't, then a year after that my friend he-he had a bad reaction to xanx and drank a shit load of alcohol. So that's why I'm overly attached, well addicted to them--I miss him, thinking he's still with me in my pocket." August confessed taking a bite from his burger and I just looked at him not
knowing what to say.

"I know I'm beautiful, but you don't have to stare at me like that." He smiled softly pushing a
curl out my face and wrapping his arm
around my shoulder.

"Have you ever made love?" He brought up randomly making me give him a weird look,
he just smirked
at me meaningless.

"No, a few guys tried to pressure me into having sex but I want wait for the right guy to come. Why do you have an std or something?" I raised my brow at him suspiciously,

he shook his head calmly , "Nah, was just wondering."

"Have you ever had sex?"

"Sex--yeah, but I never made love before: I had sex with a few girls because my teenage hormones were going crazy; making love to them, never."

I looked at him curiously trying to read his
emotions at the moment:

"I noticed you always have this tough guy act whenever you're with the pack, but when you're with me you act like a huge teddy bear." I brought up after he kissed neck softly before talking
a sip from his milkshake .

Are you serious he already finished two of his burgers, I haven't even
finished mine yet.

"Because I love you so much, plus I have to show I have some authority around here--they don't run the show around here, I do. I'm the alpha and they look up to me:even though I despise my father, he's right that an Alpha always has to
be strong and fearless." He growled lowly into my ear making me blush.

"Another thing he always told me: a strong alpha need a strong Luna."
