Samuel’s P.O.V

I couldn't believe that he asked me to be his boyfriend! We were back in the car and in the way to his pack's mansion but all I could think about at that moment was him asking me to be his boyfriend. He even brought me a giant teddy bear! When my mother was still alive, she would buy me many plushies but when she died, my father burnt all her things and all the toys and plushies she bought me. I was really sad, and I cried for two days straight. I had just lost my mother and my childhood.

"Hey Bambi, you don't like the chocolate?" My mate asked with concern because I stopped eating the chocolate which I was devouring minutes ago and because my mood suddenly dropped.

"N-no, I really l-like them. I'm just not hungry anymore" I answered with a small voice. He seemed to understand that I remembered bad memories because he hugged me and told me that everything would be alright. I clenched my fists in his t-shirt and stuck my body to his. I felt so safe in his arms, if I could, I would like to stay there all day and do nothing but cuddle with him. But all the good things need to come to an end because a few minutes after, the car stopped before an even bigger mansion then the mansion for the ball. As we got out of the car, I watched in amazement the mansion before me. I never saw a house as big and as beautiful than this one. It looked like a mansion from La Renaissance with the beige bricks, faded blue roof and the old looking windows. The grand staircase was amazing for some reason I didn't really know. Everything was just so big!

We entered the house and my breath was once again taken away. The inside was as mind blowing then the outside. The first thing I saw were the two slightly twisted sets of stairs that probably went to the same place. The decorations also looked more expensive than all my old pack's goods. It was simple but well done.

Alexander led me toward the stairway and made me climb the stairs before him. I could feel his gaze on my butt as I went up and I must tell you that I was deliberately swaying my hips just to tease him a little. I heard him gulp and take a shaky breath. Hehehe, it was so funny to see his reaction to me. I didn't know that I could provoke such a reaction from others, I always thought that I was disgusting and ugly. Well that was what my bullies always told me, but they also said that I would never find my mate or that they would reject me. But neither happened. I found my mate and he accepted me. Wait… Would he still accept me when he realised that I was already used? He just became super angry at my father when I told him and he said that he didn't care that I wasn't a virgin anymore but maybe he was just in denial and when he would realise the truth he wouldn't love me anymore…

"What is it Bambi?" He asked when I turned toward him with a serious face as we reached the top of the stair.

"Make love to me please" I asked in a serious face. I knew that it may seem to soon for some because not long ago my father raped me but for most mates, they were already mating the second they met each other. Our wolf parts craved each other when we were mate and if we rejected each other or stay away for too long after we meet and didn't mate, we could die in some cases. Our soul was made for the other, that was why we called it mate, for soulmate. Therefore, I didn't feel disgusted and afraid when he touched me, because I knew that he would never hurt me or treat me like my old pack and my dad did. I also felt safe with him and I could imagine myself growing with him and carrying his pups. I could picture him and me around a table filled with food, laughing as we watched our youngest pup with his face full of sauce and around us many of our pups were watching us with big smile and were laughing too. I wouldn't need to worry about my next meal or if I would be beaten up. I wouldn't need to look over my shoulder, afraid of my bullies coming behind me. I would feel happy. This was the future I want. It would also prove if Alexander really wanted me or if he was just in denial. It was better to end it all here if he was going to reject me, before I started to fall in love with him.

"Are you sure Samuel?" He asked with a serious face. I nodded because I knew that I wouldn't regret it. Even if he rejected me after, I would be happy with my choice because I wouldn't ever feel like this with someone else. I would always be happy because I got to do one of the most intimate act couple do, with the person I wanted. No, with the person that I loved. I finally realised; I already fell in love with Alexander.

Not because he was my mate, but because he was himself.
