Destined mates

Chapter Thirteen

It's been a week since Chris brought me home. I've been shopping with Hazel twice this week already as she finally realised I honestly didn't have much in my Closet. Chris has been so caring, he's always kissing me on the forehead, which I love and always controlling himself around me as I'm not quite ready to go any further than the kissing. He does catch me watching him either training or getting ready for the day ahead. I'm usually left to get used to my surroundings as he has alpha duties to attend to with Thomas and John. Speaking of which, I met the Beta female, John's mate and wife. I didn't realise wolves got married.

'Hey you.' I heard coming from down the hall, I was in the process of going to the swimming pool.

'Hey Chloe, how's your day been so far?' I asked as I slowed my pace for her to catch up.

'Boring, John's off with Chris and Thomas as usual. Speaking of Chris. Hows things with u two?' She teased and poked my shoulder.

I could tell I was getting red in the face.

'Erm, what do you mean? We're ok' we started to giggle as we entered the room where the indoor pool was. We noticed three omegas already in the pool. Two of them lowered their head to me, 'Luna' they said in unison. The third stared me. If looks could kill I would've been dead years ago. This particular Omega was Ava, I knew this b**** from school. Even though she was two years older than me she knew I was a slave to Hilltop and she didn't think that I belonged here at full moon with Chris. I honestly don't get her problem as she was always all over Mark at school, even though he didn't really pay her much attention.

'RESPECT YOUR LUNA!' Chloe raised her voice which made me jump.

'She is not our luna!' Ava replied.

Chloe went to step towards her but I stopped her. I stepped forward instead and approached her. As I was walking closer she got out of the pool. She was taller than me with blonde hair and brown eyes but unfortunately she was smaller in other areas. I was maybe starved but as Hazel likes to tell me I have a huge rack. I had to raise my head to look up at Ava, which I didn't care. As she stood in front of me arms crossed, the other two girls left which she didn't like. I've always got used to standing up for myself especially with what I had to go through at hilltop.

'I may not be the luna but I am Chris's mate so you still have to respect me' She went to open her mouth but daggers came from Chloe's eyes which stopped her mid track. She huffed and walked out of the room. Both me and Chloe looked at each other and started laughing.

'You maybe small but you can handle yourself.' She raised her hand to high five me.

'I've had to. With everything I went through at Hilltop, I always told myself if I ever let anyone walk all over me, I'd be weaker than what I am.'

I could see by Chloes eyes she was mind linking someone.

'Who was that you just called?' I asked Chloe as I started to paddle in the pool.

'Hazel. Shes not busy so shes coming to join us.'

Five minutes went by and Hazel turned up.

'Hey!' Hazel approached the pool, throw her towel on the bench and jumped in. We all started laughing and splashed each other. I never new having friends would make me feel so happy.

By the time lunch came around, we all got out and dried ourselves off and headed to the dining room to meet the men. I've got use to eating breakfast and lunch now so I was looking forward to what was on the menu today. We got to the dining room just as the men did. Chloe and Hazel greeted their mates as Chris came towards me. I knew I was going to get a kiss to the forehead so I plucked up the courage and lift my lips to met his. I could tell it surprised him but I didnt see him complaining. The kiss went on longer than I expected.

'Get a room'

As Peter said this our kiss stopped and I could tell I was getting red. Chris pulled me in for a hug while laughing at his dad because his mum, Rachel, slapped him round the arm.

'Dont embarrass the poor girl.'

I moved away from Chris and sat on the bench opposite him. He was still smiling like a kid at christmas.

'What have you ladies been up to today then? I can tell you've enjoyed some pool time.' Rachel asked as we all started to tuck into our lunch that some omega staff placed in front of us.

'Charlotte and I went for a swim but some omegas were already there.' Chloe started to explain. I raised my head and looked at her with a slight shake.

She nodded in understanding.

'But once we entered they paid their respects and left then I called Hazel, who jumped in canon ball style and got us both wet, after a little while of having fun we noticed it was time for lunch.'

Chris noticed our exchange and squeezed my hand. I looked up at him, he had a puzzled look on his face and looked towards Chloe. I shook my head 'Nothing, were good. we had fun. I cant remember the last time I laughed so much.' I reassured him and continued eating my lunch.

After lunch Chris had to go and do some actual work for his company in his office.

'Do you mind if I joined you?' I asked as we walked up the stairs hand in hand.

'Of course you can.' He looked down down at me with a smile.

We got to his office which was also on the same floor as our room. Our room, its still strange saying that.

'I've got a few phone calls to make and some plans to look over that's been sent via email.' With a kiss to my forehead Chris walked over to his desk and got straight to work. His office was huge. Not as huge as our room but still. I thought of offices being small rooms which had a desk and some bookshelves against the wall. Not this one, this one had a huge desk against the back wall with bookshelves either side. They looked like they were all made from oak. By the window were a sofa and two chairs. They were grey with soft green scatter cushions for decoration. On the wall opposite the window was the tv that seemed to have the news on it but muted. As I walked around Chris's office, I kept noticing his eyes on me every now and then. I just smiled and kept looking round. the walls were decorated in a sofa green and grey wallpaper that matched so well with the furniture. The walls and shelves had photos on them with oak frames. Some were of his parents and friends, some were childhood pictures of him, John and Thomas. Much to my surprise there were also pictures of me. I know he took some but not all of which he had in his office. I noticed a picture of Chris and I on the terrace that Hazel took of us. I picked it up, I couldnt help but run my finger tips over Chris's face. He had the biggest smile on his face but he wasnt looking at the camera. He was looking at me. Just then two hands gently headed onto my hips and I was pulled into Chris's lap.

'I love this picture of us.' He said as he wrapped his arms around my waist.

'I didnt realise you got it framed' I said trying to turn myself to look at him.

'Why would I?' Chris took the photo out of my hand and placed it on his desk right by his computer screen. I wrapped my arms around his neck and moved in for a kiss. After seeing the photos and Chris's smiles in ever singles one I knew this was the moment to take things further in our blossoming relationship.
