Mocha’s POV:
So today is my 19th birthday and a few days before it makes a year of living with Ivan. I haven’t told him that today is my birthday and I don’t plan to because he already plans to celebrate the one year thing and I don’t wanna mess with that. Now we are sitting here having lunch and he seems slightly lost in thought. “Ivan are you alright?” my concern got the best of me and I felt the need to ask. He snaps out his thoughts taking a quick glance at me before nodding slowly. “Mocha can I take you out to a nice dinner tonight?” his question caught me off guard and I looked at him in confusion. “Yeah we can do whatever you want but is there a specific reason?” I had so many questions.
He sighs and looks down before taking another glance at my face, “Mocha why didn’t you tell me today is your birthday? Did you think I wouldn’t care or that I would be annoyed with you for bringing it up?” he looked into my eyes with a hurt expression and I felt my heart sink. He wasn’t wrong by assuming I was worried but there was more to it than that. I tried to push the words out in hopes it would make him feel better, “Our celebration for living together for a whole year now will be in a few days so I didn’t see the point of celebrating my birthday, which has never been celebrated before. I just don’t see it as important but I knew you would. I am so sorry if that made you feel like I didn’t trust you enough to let you know.” His expression softened as I continued my nervous rambles. “Mocha I won’t make a big deal out of it if that would make you uncomfortable but at least let me take you for a nice dinner okay?” he reaches over and holds one of my hands in his own as he stares deep into my eyes.

We are seated in an extremely nice restaurant that we didn’t even have to wait to get a table in. As soon as the worker saw him the smiles and greeted him “Welcome Mr. Charleston table for two?” We were led to a table away from the crowded part of the restaurant and I felt slightly out of place. Ivan told me to wear whatever I was comfortable in and he wore a suit. Everyone else in the place also wore fancy clothes like dresses and suits but I was in black skinny jeans and a baggy crop-top sweater. I stared out at the people, lost in my own thoughts when I heard Ivan softly chuckle, “Mocha, even in normal clothes, you are still the most beautiful person in here.” I felt my face flush bright red as I looked down trying to hide my blush. “T-thank you Daddy”, I felt myself feeling kind of little when he complimented me. When the waiter came to take our order, Ivan ordered for me because I didn’t understand what anything on the menu was and I was feeling too shy to speak anyways.
The food came out and he ordered me something that was like a cheesy soup and although that would probably offend me if a stranger order me, this assuming that I would like it because i’m part mouse, It didn’t offend me when Ivan did it because he has come to learn that I actually do like cheese. I smiled up at him and gave a soft ‘thank you’. We ate our dinner in comfortable silence until I felt like someone was staring at me. I could feel someone burning holes into the side of my head which had my ears twitching nervously. Ivan must have noticed because he cleared his throat before speaking, “Something wrong?” I looked up seeing a woman glaring at me from across the room and shook my head before look back down at my hands in my lap. Ivan looks over to where I looked and he turns back to me, “Ignore her She is someone from my past.”
I went to look back up at her and she was already making her way over to us and my heart sank to my gut. She stomped over and stopped at our table glaring st Ivan and he looked up with his brow raised, “Can I help you Marie?” She scoffed at him saying her name before she pointed her finger with long fake nails on at it towards my face. “I see you are interested in small boys. You’ve become a real pervert, he’s even part mouse. He doesn’t have the right to be with a predator half breed like us. Look at him trying to be all cute and innocent trying to use you for your money I bet.” She looks over at me, “And you I bet he has had you on your knees already or bent over some hotel bed. Well guess what you aren’t the first to be used as a sex toy by him and you won’t be the last i’m sure.”
Now it was my turn to be angry and before Ivan could say anything I calmly stood up crossed my arms over my chest and laughed. “Oh honey I am far from being some little boy, I promise you I am of legal age. Also lemme tell you a little secret, I have never once had to be on my knees, bent over a bed, and I damn sure have never been in a hotel room because I get to be in his real bedroom. I am the one who gets to live in his mansion and be in his bed at the end of the day without having to do a single sexual favor for him. You may have been his play thing but now i have him and I will always be way more to him then you ever were.” I calmly sat myself down as she huffed and walked away leaving Ivan looking at me with an amused and shocked expression.
“I have myself a feisty little mouse standing up for himself and I didn’t even have to say a word,” he looked pleased and I suddenly felt embarrassed. I have never blown up on someone before and I have never been a rude person so I have no idea where that came from. A worker came up to us and asked if we were okay and promised that the woman would never be allowed there again for disrupting our evening. Ivan smiled at me and asked if I was ready to head home and so I nodded, tool tired to speak anymore. A small part of me felt proud and was ready to end the night on that note.
