"Do you have any plans today ?" It was Sunday morning and Connor was drawing little patterns on her stomach and around her breasts with his fingers.
She stretched and sighed. "I promised my parents to come up to them for lunch".
"Oh well then you just go of course, you can borrow my car if you want to". She could hear he was disappointed, he wanted to be with her on her day off, but he tried to hide it.
His wolf was instantly there, growling and wondering if she was really going to her parents.
She bit her lip. "Oh no, I don't have the nerves to drive something that temperamental, but maybe you could drive, my parents would love to meet you".
"I guess that went okay, didn't it ? I like your parents, they are really sweet". They were sitting in the car on their way back, and Connor was glancing at Amelia. He had really been on his best behaviour and he hoped she had noticed.She turned her face towards him and smiled. "It went a lot more than okay, my father was crazy about you and my mother might be just a tiny bit in love with you. I have never seen her giggle and blush like that"."That might be a bit exaggerated, but I hope they liked me". He was biting his lip, concentrating on the road.Not that it mattered much to him if they liked him. She was his destined mate and he would take her with him one way or another. But he knew it mattered to her and he wanted her happy.She was happy she had brought him, even though it might be a bit early, but it had gone
Monday morning Amelia couldn't stay still and she ended up snapping at Connor because he was laughing at her."Oh sorry, I am just so nervous, it wasn't entirely fair taking it out on you". She put her arms around him, snuggling into him.He was stroking her back gently and kissing her on the hair. "It is okay darling, I understand that you are nervous and it wasn't nice of me to laugh"."Is it okay that I go to the meeting alone ?" She looked up at him, knowing that if she didn't say anything he would most likely just go with her.Part of him wanted to go, but he also knew his wolf might make him interfere and he had to tread carefully. He needed to make her trust him again.
It was Thursday morning and Connor's 36'th birthday, Amelia sneaked out of bed calling Joel to check that everything was ready, before taking a quick shower and getting dressed."Morning handsome and happy birthday". She kissed him softly and he grabbed her, pulling her down on top of him. After a couple of minutes she gently pushed him away and said laughing. "Sorry babe, but you need to get up and shower, we have a lot of plans today"."I thought you were my present, are you sure I can't just unpack you ?" He got up on his knees, grabbed her again and tried to pull off her blouse.She kissed him, but removed his hands. "Go get in the shower, Joel is picking us up in 15 minutes".A qua
"This is cool, but you know I am going to kick your asses right ?" Connor said with a grin, when he found out they were going to a paintball arena for a friendly war, it was something that spoke to the Alpha in him. Joel smirked at him, sending him a challenging look. "Don't get too cocky, you know karma and all that jazz". "Okay, did I get this right ? You need to hit the helmet or the heart mark on either the back or the chest to kill someone". Amelia looked at them, a slightly confused look on her face. Connor snaked his arms around her. "Yep darling, and I am sorry that I probably have to kill you". "We will see, we will see, I might have hidden talents". She said giggling and winking at him. He gave her a light slap on the ass, as he let her go. He was sure this was going to be fun. "Whoops so sorry, Joel". Amelia tried not to giggle too hard. She had shot at Joel and he had tried to jump the shot, taking it right in the balls. She could hear Connor laugh rather hear
"I feel like a real bitch to be honest". Amelia sighed deeply… It was Tuesday afternoon and she was sitting in Linda's kitchen.Linda sipped her tea and looked at her. "But you can't say it just because he does, if that isn't how you feel"."I am not sure about my feelings, I am crazy about him, I am certainly in love with him. But saying ‘I love you’ is just such a big step, especially after just 5 weeks". She rubbed her head, everything was just going so fast.Linda nodded. "I totally get it and the fact that he is leaving in about a week has to influence you too right ?""Yeah it just seems so impossible, especially with me hopefully getting so much more to do now
"When do you leave ?" It was Saturday afternoon and Amelia was laying on her back on the bed, looking at the ceiling. Connor was laying next to her on his side, drawing little figures on her naked body with his fingers. "Wednesday evening, it is getting way too close".His wolf was literally losing it, getting more and more frustrated and agitated at the thought of leaving his mate. "Yeah, I guess we have to talk about this. What we will do. What we will be and so on". She had feared this talk. He pro
"Amelia ?" For a second she thought it was Connor, because the voice was so familiar, but it was Daniel, her ex, who suddenly stood behind her. She looked at him, feeling her heart sink. She hadn't seen him for more than a year, but he looked like himself. "What are you doing here Daniel ?" "Hello Linda". He said, then turned back to Amelia. "Just out with a couple of friends, and then I spotted you. You look good, girl". She sighed with annoyance. She knew him well enough to hear from his voice what he wanted. "Don't even try Daniel. I have a boyfriend, but even if
When Ami woke up the next morning she had expected her phone to be full of messages from Connor, but there weren't even one, not as much as an answer to her text. She sighed, the wise thing would probably be to wait for him to contact her, as he was the one who should be apologising. But she couldn't wait, she needed to see him, to hold him. He had acted wrong, but he had done it to protect her. And this, no contact, not talking, it didn’t feel good at all. She tried calling him, but it went straight to the answering machine. Then she tried texting Joel, but he was on his way back from filming in the other end of Denmark and hadn't b
