Run

Confused

I must of fallen asleep because I woke up under the covers alone. I'm surprised he left me, especially after trying to throw myself out the window. I glanced over at it and noticed it was locked with a bar lock over it. I guess he's being overly cautious. He could have just locked the top. Even if I became a monkey, I wouldn't be able to reach the top lock. Pulling the covers off and stretching my legs, I noticed the pain in my ankle was gone. Dang, where was this fast healing all these years?

Wandering around the room, I couldn't help but be nosey. A door kiddy corner of the bed was a closet with a mixture of his suits and casual clothes. It was huge. Another door straight across from the bed was the bathroom, a walk-in shower with tiles that had a mixture of white and blue marbling and a giant clawfoot tub. I could fit in there five times and still have room. I couldn't help myself as I ran my fingers over the top lip. It's tempting, but I don't want to use his stuff without checking or risk someone walking in on me. Plus, I don't have anything to wear, so what's the point of cleaning up and putting on dirty clothes? "You can use it if you want to." I jumped turning around to see Alpha Tate leaning up against the wall looking at me. He had one blue jeans and a black shirt that clung to his muscles and his black hair had a tousled look. Gosh, it should be a crime to look this good. Making my way to his eyes, they were black instead of the normal light green, which confused me. " I recommend turning down your arousal there sweetheart." My face immediately heats up, turning a bright red while the smirk on his face doubled in size. "I don't know what your talking about." Pointing to his nose "the nose never lies sweetheart did you forget what I am?" "No I just nevermind." I said looking down. His arms wrapped around me, pulling my body against his. "You can check me out anytime." He said while his chest rumbled from the laughter. If I wasn't so embarrassed and unsure of everything, I'd find a way to retaliate, but there's still time.

"Come on." He pulled me out of the bathroom toward some bags on the bed. "I wasn't sure what you liked, so I had them get you a few things and we can grab more later, but at least you can get out of those dirty clothes." I know it might seem simple to have someone give you clean clothes but it's been so long since I haven't been in these rags that I couldn't contain my excitement. I jumped up, wrapping my arms and legs around him, which I can only assume caught him off guard. "Thank you so much!" His arms snaked under my thighs, pulling me up higher and kissing my forehead. "Anything for you sweetheart, now grab what you like and I'll run you a bath." I felt like a kid in a candy store sifting through the bag, I ended up pulling out a dark green sundress with one strap on the right side and a ruffled skirt that went to mid thigh and a pair of black flats. Making my way to the bathroom, I saw he had run a bubble bath. The scent of apples perfumes the whole bathroom. "Enjoy your bath. I'm going to go get you some food, there's extra of anything you need under the cabinet." He placed a kiss on top of my head before leaving closing the door completely on the way out. Maybe I need to figure out this mate bond more, because I should be pushing his affections away since we just met, but I strangely feel the need for more.
