"Mum"
There was complete silence for a moment before she screamed.
"Oh my God!" she yelled so loud, i had to move the phone away from my ear in fear that i would go deaf.
"Eve! Eve is that you?" she asked, slightly quieter, yet just as frantic.
The sound of her voice made me tear up and before I knew it, I was bawling like a baby.
"Mummy" I cried, not even daring to look at Alpha St- i mean Zac who was watching me stone faced in the corner of his office. I clutched the phone tighter, my knuckles turning white.
"Eve, where are you? Are you alright? Is he looking after you? How are you feeling? Are you sick?" her questions were too fast and before I could even answer she was moving on and asking more questions.
I heard a commotion on the other side and suddenly someone else took hold of the phone. "Eve? Eve is that you?"
It was my father and his worried voice made me cry even harder. Hearing their voices made me realise how much I missed them.
"Yes Dad, it's me."
"Oh Eve," I could hear my mother sniffling in the background, "are you safe? Do you want us to come and get you?"
I smiled despite the tears.
"I'm fine Dad, Alpha Stone is looking after me well."
I heard a growl at the mention of Alpha Stones name.
"Well he god damn better. Did he tell you?" my father questioned and I assumed what he was talking about.
"Yes he told me I was his mate."
The whole situation was still ridiculous to me and I could hardly get my head around it. After Alph- Zac had dropped this whole 'you're my mate' bomb he just left me alone for the next few days and then out of the blue suddenly came to my room and said I could speak to my parents. It was just weird and unreal.
"Yes we couldn't believe it either when he told us, but we took his word for it." My father said, though even he sounded dubious.
"Sweetie, sweetie," my mother suddenly came on, " has anything happened between you two?"
The question alone made my cheeks burn crismon and from the corner of eyes I could see Zac clear his throat looking uncomfortable. Of course he was listening in to this conversation.
"Uh- he marked me." I whispered quietly, turning my body away from Alpha Stone.
Suddenly a furious roar erupted on the other side, my father was definitely not happy.
"He WHAT!!-"
Before I knew it, Alpha Stone grabbed the phone from my hand and slammed it down, cutting the call.
I looked up at him in shock, my hand still in the air as if i was holding the phone.
"I didn't finish." i said my eyes wide.
"Yeah well that's enough for today." Alp-Zac stated. Oh god i still haven't got used to calling him Zac- it just didn't feel right.
We stood there like that for a few minutes, just standing staring at each other, not saying or doing anything. We never spent much time together and after the whole 'mate' situation it seemed as if he was trying his hardest to avoid me, which to be honest didn't bother me at all, because I was still trying to get used to the fact i was actually a mate to a werewolf, let alone the fact that i was a mate to the Alpha Stone, one of the most vicious and cruel Alpha's in the world.
Sometimes however over the past few weeks? we would somehow be in a similar situation like this, where it would be us two, alone in a room and all we would do is stand still and stare at each other. I had no idea what he was thinking about but during these moments I would usually be doing two things;
1. Admiring how bloody good looking he isand 2. Wondering what on earth is going to happen next
I was in the middle of doing number one when he suddenly asked, "What have you got planned for today?"
What?
"Uh-" I wasn't quite sure what to say. For the past four weeks I had stuck to my routine of helping Carla, sometimes talking to Kate then mostly bored out of my mind and wasting away in my room. To be honest it hardly the most interesting life- not that i ever had an interesting life to start with, i mean at least at home I had books to keep me entertained.
"I dont really have anythi-"
"Good." Alpha Stone interrupted.
Good?
We both stared at each other and stood around awkwardly. I was so confused right now, why did he want to know if I had anything planned, was that his way of small talk?
Should I leave? I should probably leave.
"Uhm- so-" i pointed to the door, shuffling awkwardly towards it. He was blocking the way so I had to step around him and just as I was about to, he grabbed my hands making me stop.
I ignored the electric shock that numbed my hand when his hand met mine.
"If you have nothing planned," Alpha Stone was trying his hardest not to look at me, "did you perhaps want to go on a date?"
Wait what?
