I've never been the sociable type of person. Or the person who is able to start up a conversation with the first person she meets.
.
In my old pack, I didn't have any friends. People thought of me as the pack punching bag.
.
You see, when people were angry or mad, they come to me to either scream at me, cry on me or on the rare occasion hit me.
.
The only friend I had was Abby.
.
She was the only one who actually sat down with me and had a conversation. I remember the first day she came up to me. I thought she came up to me to scream at me or hit me but no. She just sat down and said hi. Who knew that one simple words, two letters, one syllable could make me my first friend.
.
So as you can see, I'm not very sociable. So what would you expect me to do when I'm standing right in front of my mates sister. Who is incredible beautiful and quite intimidating if you ask me.
.
I think she noticed my hesitation because she slowly withdrew her hand and wiped it on her denim distressed shorts removing the invisible dust.
.
I didn't want to seem rude but when you put me in a situation like this, I don't have any other choice but to stand there like a statue.
.
I felt another presence beside me and an arm wrap tighter around my waist.
" Sorry Eabha, she's new to this kind of stuff. Just give her some time" Caden said
I found it amazing how his voice make a pleasant shiver run down my spine. How his touch made me feel like I'm the only girl in the world. How his looks made me melt. How his dark brown hair always seemed to be in a tousled state but at the same time managed to look like it was styled my God himself. How his hands made me weak at the knees and made me crave more of his touch.
.
I could physically feel him stiffen beside me.
He bent down until his mouth hovered on top of my ear.
.
" Ara, can you please stop having dirty thought about us. Because if my sister wasn't here, I would take you on my desk until you can't feel your legs again"
How did he know?
I was surprised how he could just be so vulgar about it. And by the surprised face on his sisters face, I could tell she heard what he said. Damn her werewolf hearing.
.
" I think I'll just leave you two to it then"
As she said that, she gently put my sister up on her hip turned on her heel and walked out of the room.
As she left, I could hear the almost inaudible words 'bye' coming from my sister.
.
We were left in silence. Even with the awkward moment that just passed, the silence still managed to be clam and serene.
.
My mind somehow still managed to lead back to the thought of Caden. I tried to block it out because I knew he could hear what I'm thinking and that wouldn't be too good for any of us. But no, they just kept coming, more and more graphic. Damn my teenage girl hormones.
.
The next thing I know, I'm being shoved into the nearest wall as Caden stares deep into my hazel eyes. There is a slight pain in my back from the impact but it's soon replaced my pleasure as I feel Caden's lips press against the soft spot on my neck. Right in between my shoulder and my ear.
.
I've never felt anything like this and it's starting to scare me. How Caden's touch managed to make me weak in the knees. How his voice can almost command me to do anything he says. How he himself is just so perfect that I feel like this is all just a dream and that I'm going to wake up any moment and go back to the harsh reality that was my life.
But no. As it all seems so fake, it also seems real. Every touch leaves a burning sensation on my skin. Every word is a memory imbedded in my head.
.
Caden was mine. All mine and as long as I'm going to live, no one is going to take him away from me.
.
Caden continued to trail warm open mouthed kisses from my neck all the way to my forehead and back again. Never touching my lips. Teasing me.
I couldn't take it anymore. I cupped his face in my hands and started right into his brown eyes which were filled with amusement, I couldn't help but notice how lucky I am. Let's just hope that my mate doesn't turn out to be an asshole. I've had enough of those to last me a lifetime.
.
I leaned in, slowly and playfully teasing him like he teased me and as my lips were just mere inches from his, I smiled.
Finally closing the space between us, I kissed him. This kiss started off slow and passionate, just like our first kiss, my first kiss but turned into something else. The kiss started to become more wanting and more heavy. His tough slowly glided across my bottom lip, asking for entrance. I've never done any of this before, I've never got the chance. But I just followed my instinct. I slowly opened my mouth and his tongue immediately slipped in. His tongue started exploring my mouth like there was no tomorrow. Searching every inch of my mouth.
.
His hands that were once securely wrapped around my waist was now rested on the small of my back, not going any lower. I think he guessed that I was new to this and wanted to take it slow, but I was no Mary Magdalen. My hand that was stuck in his hair, went down to his hands and slid them down until they rested right on my ass. I could feel his smirk against my lips and I couldn't help but smile too. This was nothing like our first kiss.
.
A few second later, we broke apart feeling the urge for air.
.
" That was Wow"
I was new to all of this and hearing Caden say something like that gave me a little hope that the kiss wasn't that bad, that I wasn't that bad at kissing.
I couldn't help but blush as he said that. He noticed and smiled.
.
" You better get used to that. Since your my mate, there's gonna be a lot of that and hopefully more."
Since we were mates, we were obliged to complete the mating process. First by him marking me and then we fully become one by mating. Mating practically means making love if that's what you want to call it.
But if he thinks that I'm going to give up my v-card that easily, he must not be thinking right. I knew we were going to spend that rest of our lives together but I want my first time to be special. Not forced because we had to follow some stupid ritual. I cherished my v-card a lot. Unlike the other girl in my previous pack and school. They threw theirs away like it was an old t-shirt they wanted to get rid of. Me, I didn't. I saved it for my mate and only my mate. But for when I'm ready.
.
I think he sensed my hesitation towards his words.
" Listen, Ara, I would never force you into anything that you don't want to do. I'm not that kind of guy." he said with a reassuring smile.
" I know Caden" I said smiling back
.
At that time, after those words left my mouth, my stomach decided to make an appearance. The growl was really loud that I was sure it was heard all around this house. And let me tell you, this house is big.
Caden let out a husky low laugh, that made me smile just by hearing it.
" I think you might be hungry. Let's head to the kitchen"
He grabbed my hand and we both exited his office and headed for what I assumed as the kitchen.
.
As we left the room, we headed down the hall taking various turns until we came to a long spiral marble staircase. We headed down the stairs and took some more turns until we went into the kitchen. The kitchen was huge. At least 10 times bigger than the one in my old pack. ( And I thought that one was big... ) .
It consisted of a big ass fridge that probably held enough food to feed the American army for at least five years. A lot of presses and drawers. A gigantic bar in the right hand corner and a huge island bang centre in the middle of the kitchen. He sink and the marvel floor were so shiny, I was sure I could see my reflection in them. The tables spotless and the counters looked liked they had been waxed several time and then scrubbed again. To put it simply, the kitchen was spotless.
.
Caden could read my mind and answered the question for me
" It's so clean because we have cleaners"
.
That explains it.
Caden walked over to the fridge and opened it looking up and down. Like I said, the fridge was filled to the brim with food.
" What would you like, I could get the cooks to make anything you would like to eat. You name it they'll make it"
" No it's fine Caden, I can find something" I was very weak and tired now but I didn't want to bother anyone.
" No honestly, just name what you want and I'll get the cooks to make it. That's why they're paid isn't it" he said followed by a hearty laugh.
I thought about it and just decided to agree. I was tried and I can bet Caden wouldn't have let me do anything.
" What would you like?"
" I don't mind. I'll eat anything"
Caden went silent and seemed to be concentrating on something else. Probably calling the cooks through mind link.
.
About two minutes later, while Caden and I were just getting to know each other, two rather chubby looking women ran into the kitchen with aprons on. They must be the cooks.
As they came in, they looked from me to Caden. One of them gave Caden a look of disappointment.
Why was she disappointed ??
She looked Caden straight in the eyes and said
" Caden, you know how your dad feels about you bringing your"... She looked at me for a second as if trying to find the right word to use " guests home"
What does she mean by guests? I didn't know what she meant but I had a faint idea.
I felt this sinking in my stomach. Like I had just drank 10 litres of water at a go. I felt jealous. Jealous that Caden had probably been with other girl both physically and as a couple. But why was I jealous. I had a feeling he was not a virgin. I mean look at him. What girl would pass a chance to be with him? I shouldn't be feeling jealous. He was with those other girls before he met me. I know I have no reason to be, but I still am jealous.
.
"Rosalie.... This is Ara. My MATE." he said. Dragging out the word mate.
The cook with the brown hair who I assumed was Rosalie widened her eyes and her mouth opened like a fish out of water.
" Pardon me Luna. I am truly sorry for what I said." She looked at me with a scared expression on her face.
" It's ok. I know you meant no harm" I said warmly to the cook named Rosalie. She physically relaxed after I said that.
She and the other cook scurried away to do what they were doing and Caden took my hand and led me to the island and lifting me by the waist and putting my on the swirly chair. I couldn't help but blush at his movement. I was pretty sure I could have climbed onto the chair by myself considering that I was not the small and stood at an amazing 5"8.
.
" You didn't have to do that you know. I'm tall enough to climb the chair by myself" I said with my cheeks still burning red. I was tanned yes but sadly when I blushed it always showed, giving my emotions away.
" I know, but I was just looking for a way to touch you" Caden said taking my hand in his and placing an open mouth kiss on it. Just that simple gesture made me weak at the knees. It made me want to jump his bones right there.
.
I just sat there, blushing like crazy. It didn't go unnoticed by Caden and he smirked, witnessing the effect he has on me.
.
'CRASH'
The sound echoed throughout the whole house. Caden immediately removed his lips from my hand and ran to find the source of the noise. I followed him, almost getting lost whenever I came to a sudden turn down the hallways. After walking for what felt like ten minutes but was only ten seconds, we came to a pair of white oak front doors which I assume led to the outside of the house.
.
Standing right in front of the doors stood a guy, around the same age as me. He had dirty blond hair, and blue eyes. He was really tall but not as tall as Caden. He looked fit, but not the sickly type of fit. But then again he wasn't as fit as Caden. I found it pathetic how I keep comparing everything about him to Caden. And as much as I would live to deny it, Caden was better than him. In everything I compared.
Standing at his feet were two pairs of speakers. Almost the size of my whole leg. What could this guy be doing with two large speakers and most importantly, how did he manage to carry them in here.
.
" Caden why did you bring one of your whores home? We were meant to have the party tonight. Your meant to help me set up" he said with an aggravated tone and a board face.
First, I was so surprised at his lack of hospitality. He talked like this isn't the first time he's said those words to Caden. Like it's part of his daily routine. And secondly, why does everyone think I'm some girl he messes around with. First his sister, then the cook and now this guy.
Before I could take in what was going on, the mysterious guy at the door was pinned up by his throat up against the wall by Caden.
" Don't you ever call my mate a whore ever again"
Caden's voice was laced with venom. Every word that skipped out of his mouth became more threatening one after the other. Caden's eyes that were once lift brown orbs had turned a dark shade of blue. Almost navy.
As Caden called me his mate, the mysterious stranger looked at me for some time like he was trying to figure me out. Even when Caden's arms where still wrapped around his throat. He slowly started turning red from lack of oxygen.
I had to stop Caden before he does anything that he will regret. I ran up to Caden, wrapped my arms around his torso and pulled back with all my strength. But did he budge? No, not even a tiny bit. I tried and tried again. Harder and harder until I couldn't take it anymore. Caden had dropped the guy on the floor who was now breathing heavily and was staring at me. Amusement clear in his eyes.
" Do you think this is funny Caden.?" I questioned. Trying to duplicate the authority a mother would have in her voice while trying to scold a child.
" Maybe just a little bit " he replied. God damn that child.
Suddenly he turned around to face the guy who was now on his feet dusting the invisible dust from his jeans.
" Listen Xavier, I'm sorry for doing that it's just that you called my mate a whore and I didn't like that." Caden said looking the guy now I know whose name is Xavier straight in the eye.
" It's alright bro, just tell me next time when you decide to strangle me" Xavier replied a smirk hanging off his lips. He walked over to Caden and they did that bro hug thing that I will never understand. He pulled away and said.
" Now aren't you going to introduce me to the future Luna of our pack"
" Right sorry"
Caden looked back at me. Picked me off the floor and turned me so I was facing Xavier.
" Well Xavier, this is my mate Ara and Ara, this is Xavier, my best friend and Bete of this pack"
Xavier stretched out his hand and shook mine.
" Hi I'm Xavier " he said, followed by a charming smile.
.
Great, now I've been introduce to two people in one day. This is too much to handle.
.
He's the Bete of this pack. What if he doesn't approve? A Betes opinion matters a lot.
Xavier looked at Caden and said
" I think your mate and I are going to be good friends"
Little did I know that we were going to turn out to be good friends. Best friends even.
