=Eloise=

I awoke suddenly and began to panic slightly as I didn't recognize where I was.

"Go back to sleep My Heart."

'My Heart'

Those two words has immediately caused memories of last night to flooded me and I couldn't help but smile as I calmed down and nuzzled my head against Rocco's bare chest. His finger lightly traced my exposed back reassuringly, our legs remained intertwined as there was nothing separating my flesh from his.

"I'm too wide awake to go back to sleep." I declared excitedly.

He chuckled deeply, "if you keep fidgeting you're bound to wake up more than just me." He said as he raised one eyebrow suggestively.

I giggled and kissed him and before I knew it he had gotten on top of me and pinned me down before he began to shower my entire upper body with kisses.

"I need to shower, and brush my teeth." I pouted as I thought about having to leave the comfort of his bed.

"You don't have to a thing you don't want to." He sounded matter of fact.

"It'd be gross not to." I pointed out..."plus I have to pee."

He laughed and moved so I could get up. He watched my every move with primal lust filling his eyes...I noticed yesterday, Rocco seemed to have a hard time keeping his eyes off of me.

"Like what you see Mister Alpha?" I teased him.

"Very much so My Heart." He smirked.

I walked into his connected restroom and closed the door behind me, I used the restroom and heard as he began moving around the room, probably getting ready for the day. But as soon as I flushed the toilet he knocked.

I opened the door and looked up at him, "I thought we could shower together...you know, save on water."

This time it was my turn to smirk as I pulled my hair up and knotted it so that it wouldn't get too wet since I didn't bring any product for it.

I sat on the edge of the tub and turned the knobs as Rocco moved toward a closet that housed towels and other bathroom necessities.

Once the water was to my liking I got in and Rocco followed.

"You are so gorgeous My Heart." He said as he cupped my face before bringing his lips to mine, and as I found out last night, his kisses were my complete undoing.

All it took was that one kiss to ignite a lust so intense that I was practically clawing to have him inside of me again.

Hands roamed along slick skin, love bites were exchanged, hair was pulled my nails dug into his back he thrust deep and hard, the hot water mixed with the cold tile wall added and extra element to sex.

When we finally finished up Rocco took his cologne scented body wash and bathed me by hand, before I did the same for him.

We rinsed off and when we finally exited the restroom the wasn't and inch anywhere on our bodies that we hadn't seen or touched.

"Ugh, I can't believe I have to start my very first day of work and I have to basically do the walk of shame all day in the same clothes."

He laughed a rumbling laugh as I stood there in my underwear and bra.

"Well if you'd like we can go shopping really quick, it'd probably be smart if you had some stuff here like toiletries and clothes."

I know he meant well but I had never met a guy who was so quick to start talking about me keeping stuff over at his place. He must've picked up on it.

"Remember we're mates...this is more than your typical boyfriend and girlfriend high school relationship stuff...this is more intense, you're my mate Eloise so you're gonna have to get use to the urge to be near me, and my urge to always please you even if that means giving you things.

I could feel deep down that he was right, it's just something I wasn't use to.

"Lets go, I'll pick up an outfit to wear for today but next time I'll remember to pack an overnight bag."

"Next time?" He asked slightly hopeful.

"Unless of course you don't want there to be a next time?" I sounded a little unsure now.

"There will definitely be a next time, and a time after that, and another time after that until the day I can finally get you to move onto my lands and become a part of my pack...but I know I have to wait and so overnight bags will do just fine."

I smiled and followed him downstairs.

We had breakfast together before we took off to work.

Once we reached the shop I pulled out my keys... the new key to the pack house already on my key ring, I walked right over to my car. "I'll be right back." I said as he opened my door for me, I got in turned on my car and rolled down my window.

"Don't take too long." He sounded as he closed my door but then leaned down and kissed me through the window.

I reversed and drove through the streets until I found a store that looked "suitable" for receptionist type clothing.

Sure Rocco didn't say I had to dress a certain way, plus this is a garage for crying out loud...but if I was going to sell the part of receptionist to my sister, I had to look the part.

Honestly I found more than a few cute outfits and since I hadn't really been able to buy myself anything I splurged a little, the outfit I decided to wear out was a silk cream long sleeved button up blouse with a baby doll collar, it paired well with a deep navy skater skirt that had faux lace and floral design along the hem. I opted out of wearing hose and finished the look with some nude heels.

As I finished putting my purchases into my trunk I got a message.

[Juliette: Don't make any plans this evening, I want you to have dinner with Dorian and I, we can go out to my favorite restaurant in the city so dress up and be ready around 7.]

It was crazy how last night I completely forgot about the fact that I'm not suppose to know werewolves are real. But that one message brought me back to reality.

Once I get back home I would have to start coming up with a way to tell Juliette that I know the truth about the Weres or I'd have to spend the rest of my time here pretending I'm ignorant and don't know what's going on.

Meanwhile I now had another bump in the road of drama...I now have to sit and play nice to a guy that wants to see my mate dead.

I shook my head, if it wasn't one thing it's another.

My secrets were stacking up like unpaid bills and soon I knew I'd have to do something about them.

But I also knew that when if my secrets ever came to light there could be some serious backfire.
