THE LYCAN KING'S REJECT

SHOPPING

Abigail explained that we were going to the mall to find a few things to make me feel more at home at the castle. We made small talk ,mostly about Enzo, till we arrived at the large mall.

As we walked inside it was emptier than I thought a mall would be. My parents were very overprotective when it came to me going out in public. They hardly ever let me out of the house so most of my shopping was done online. This would be the first time I was inside an actual mall.

All the stores had such appealing things showcased in the windows.

“So what stores do you usually go to?” Abigail asked, turning to me.

“Uhh I’m not really from around here and I’ve never been to a mall before. This is the first time.” I embarrassingly confessed.

“Oh this is great! I can’t wait to show you my favorite places.”

“Can't wait to see em.”

We shared a look and headed to a shop at the end of the entrance. I was going to guess that it was a lingerie type store judging based on the half naked mannequins in thongs. I looked around amazed. I had never seen things like this before.

“Come on, we need to get you some lingeries and sexy sets.”

“Wait I-“ but before I could finish she was pulling me towards the back of the store. I guess that’s where the lingeries are.

After about an hour we had arm full of options.

“Okay go try them on.” Abigail shoved me to the changing room.

“I’ll try on a few. I think we might have gotten too many.”

I get into the changing room and place the giant stack of underwear and lingeries and the bench. I pulled out three that caught my eye and decided I would just try these on now, and the rest at a later time at home.

After a second I was looking at myself in the mirror at the lingerie that hugged my body perfectly.

It was a black sexy three piece lingerie set that featured a longline bra with sheer lace underwire cups, a scalloped lace trim, a sheer lace and dot mesh underbust band, piping details, thin spaghetti straps, a hook and eye back closure, a matching, high waisted garter belt with satin bow tie accents, adjustable garter straps, and a matching thong panty. I put on thigh high stockings to pull it all together.

I loved the way I looked in this. And I hoped Lorenzo would too. I wanted to see his reaction to me wearing something like this. I wanted to make him happy.

The next one was a red ultra sexy lace teddy features halter straps, a plunging open bodice a scalloped trim, rhinestone embellishments, an open back with a tie back closure, a double strapped waistband, an open crotch, and a thong cut back.

I loved that one too. It made me feel sexy and made my D size breast look great.

The last one I knew for sure Lorenzo would love it. It was clear the point of this one was to tempt and tease in this white flirty babydoll set featuring molded underwire cups with rhinestone accents and an embroidered lace trim, a satin bow underbust, adjustable shoulder straps, a sheer mesh bodice with satin hemline, and a matching g-string panty.

I was so excited to have Lorenzo see these. But sometime in the future, not today or anything. It was way too soon.

After getting dressed in the clothes I came in, I walked out to Abigail to see her with a bunch of shoe boxes.

“What are those?”

“Well you need shoes to go with the outfits, duh.” She smiled at me. And shoved the boxes in my arms.

Let’s go, we still have more shopping to do. We went to the front desk to pay for everything. I felt horrible when I saw how much everything cost. I was going to use my own money but Abigail was quick to swipe Enzo’s card.

“What the hell! That’s a lot of money. He is not going to be happy about this.” I scolded her.

“Oh you’ll be fine, he’s not going to care.” She responded. We ended up with six bags just with lingeries and underwear and then four pairs of shoes. There is no way he wouldn’t be angry , we just spent $500 in one store!!

“Now let’s go!” And she pulled me off to the next store.

————————————————————

After three more hours of shopping we were headed back home. We walked out with seventeen bags in total. It was hard to carry everything ourselves, but we did it. I was afraid of what Enzo might say. I felt bad spending his hard earned money like that.

Once we made it home we got the bags out and carried them to the main entrance. There to greet us were our mates. We set the bags down to get to our mates. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he wrapped his around my waist. I kissed him like I was starved of him. Like I hadn’t seen him in years. I didn’t even know I missed him that much. Though I was thinking about him the whole time.

“So how’d it go.” He asked, pulling back and kissing my nose, making my heart melt.

“Uhh it was great.” We spent too much.

“Oh really?” He asked me skeptically. He signaled for some guards to come and take our things. He then turned to his sister who was wrapped up in her mate's arms. “Abby?”

“I swear it wasn’t that much this time. Lily kept making me put things back.” She rushed out.

“Baby girl, how much did you guys spend?” I didn’t want to tell him. But I didn’t want to lie to him.

“Uhm- you see, what had happened was-” screw it. “Wekindaspentfivethousanddollars.”

“What was that?”

“We might have spent five thousand dollars.” I murmured while looking down and playing with my fingers. This was not good.

“Actually-” Abby spoke up. “We technically spent way more.”

I looked at her sideways. What is she talking about. I counted every penny because I didn’t want to spend too much. Which obviously didn’t work but still. There was no way I counted wrong.

“Yes, I know. $15,000 to be exact.” Lorenzo said. I whipped my head up at him, then at Abby, and back to Enzo.

“WHAT!”

“Well you weren’t looking so i thought ‘eh what the harm’ and added a few more things.” Abby admitted. I stared at her wide eyed. HOW!!

“Lorenzo, I swear I had no idea. I wouldn’t ha-” he cuts me off.

“I know princess. It’s fine, I believe you. Last time we let Abby go to the mall by herself for 2 hours she spent $50,000. Since there were two of you I expected you guys to spend more.”

More?!? What the hell was wrong with him?

How can anyone spend more than $50,000 in one day?

I put my hands to my head and started massaging it in circles. Crazy rich people give me headaches.

—————————————————————

It was late at night when I finished putting up all the things I had gotten from the mall. Those I did see some stuff I don’t remember getting which, after asking, Abby sneakily got for me. I was tired. My feet hurt from all the walking. I had a headache, and my body burned. I decided to wear something to bed that wouldn’t make me so hot.

After taking a semi cold shower, I put on the white babydoll I had gotten. The bedroom was lacking the presence of Lorenzo like it has been most nights. He said he had to take care of something and that he'd be back in a few minutes. That was almost an hour ago.

Sighing, I got into bed and pulled the comforter up to my knees since I was still hot. I put my hands under my head and closed my eyes.

—————————————————————

I was deep into my sleep when I felt hot kisses trail up my neck as a warm hand moved to grab my ass cheeks.

He’s back.

I slowly opened my eyes and looked past him at the clock behind him. 2:19. Did he just get back? I sniffed and smelt the faint smell of whiskey. He was drinking. He must be stressed and tired. I pulled his face away from his assault on my neck and looked at him. I stared into his tired red rimmed eyes and laid my lips over his. It wasn’t as passionate as before. It was more…thankful and relieved. When we parted he looked at me confused.

“Babe, you’re tired, and you were drinking. You need rest. You've worked too hard.” He wasn’t the only one tired; it was a struggle to keep my eyes open. Don’t get me wrong, what he was just doing felt amazing on so many different levels, but that’s not how I wanted that to go.

He signed and pulled me to him. He kissed right above my right breast and laid his head right in between them.

I smiled and put my hands in his hair and held his head and closed my eyes again. But before I let sleep completely consume me I heard the faintest whisper.

“Thank you for this one goddess.”

With a faint smile Idrifted off to sleep feeling content.
