Chapter 19

Kyle's pov

These three weeks have been amazing. Me and Anders, yup I got used to calling him by his name even though hottie sure isn't wrong either, have been getting closer and closer. The day we spent together after Leila's attack was perfect, and we have spent many days and nights in the same manner. I always feel the need to touch him, end he feels the same need, which has lead some seriously steamy moments. But so far we haven't completed the mating, to put it plainly, we haven't had sex yet.

Anders keeps saying that he wants us to wait. He wants to know that I'm sure that this is what I want, that I want to bind myself to him and his pack for the rest of my life.

Plus, with an important member of the pack in a coma, or whatever the hell he was doing, it hasn't felt right to get all freaky, Anders has been worried sick about him and spent a lot of time with him.

To be honest I have had my moments of doubt, several times I have had freak outs and almost bolted out the door dragging Leila with me. And when that asshat Axel broke my sisters heart and caused her to leave I almost went with her.

But something keeps holding me back. Whenever I think about leaving I get a burning pain in my chest at the thought of leaving Anders behind. Is that the so called mate bond? It sure as hell must have something to do with the fact that whenever I think about him my heart starts to speed up and I feel butterflies. In the beginning it freaked me out, I couldn't understand why I felt that way so fast. Now I have come to terms with it, I'm in love, yeah I love Anders. I love an Alpha werewolf and want to be with him for the rest of my life.

Yesterday Axel woke up, and he left this morning to go find Leila and fix things with her. Good luck with that one buddy, she is the most stubborn person I have ever known. But I guess the bond will help some to get her to forgive him. He knew I was pissed at him, so he took the time to tell me why he didn't like tigers. And I have to admit that the whole Tommy thing was sad, but come on! That was one guy, years ago. Way to condemn an entire race for the evil doings of one individual.

But now he's gone, and Bon Voyage to the judgmental asshole. What? I'm not bitter.

I have come to a monumental decision. Tonight I'm taking Anders on a date, and then I'm gonna pop his cherry, or is that a girl thing? When he first told me he was a virgin I was more than a little shocked. How the hell could eye candy like that go for so long without actually sleeping with someone? But now I'm happy about it, I will be his first and his last, and I like the thought of that.

I coordinated my efforts with Carl and Julie, and they have helped me make reservations at a restaurant they know he wants to try and make sure he will be back from his meetings and other duties on time for our first real official date. I just hope he doesn't mind me taking the lead like this, I know he's the Alpha and is used to making the decisions but I don't want to wait anymore.

When I hear the sound of the door opening I feel butterflies in my stomach as I wait for him in the living room. When he walks in the butterflies become eagles, my Goddess the man is sexy with his tight t-shirt and lowriding jeans.

He stops a moment to take me in, I have already changed to a black dress shirt and grey dress pants and styled my hair to perfection, dressy but still casual. And I know I look good.

"Are you going somewhere?" He walks up to me and pulls me to him as he starts to kiss his way down my jaw to my neck, while his hands are exploring my upper body heading straight for my ass. Now that has to stop, or we won't even make it out of the apartment, so I pull myself away earning a disgruntled sound from him.

"Actually, we are going somewhere, so go take a quick shower and change into something a little more daty, cause I'm taking you out." He smiles at me and looks more than pleased at by that, so I guess he doesn't mind that I took the reins.

"Daty huh? Is that even a word? But I will do as my sexy mate tells me to do, seeing you take charge makes you even sexier you know." His eyes darken and he steps towards me, but I really want to get out of here. So I step away and put my hands up urging him to stay away.

"Of course it's a word, it fits to well to not be. And I really want to have this date, so stop trying to distract me and go on."

"Ok, ok, I'm going, jeez bossy." His eyes are shining with humor and love, and I can't lie, if he hadn't left the room when he did we would have skipped the date portion of the date and gone straight for the steam part.

I just wait in the living room for him and he is back after 15 minutes, looking good enough to eat. He went for the same style as me, only he chose a short-sleeved shirt and left two buttons open showing off his perfect body, tan skin and tattoos. I feel more than a little worried I might be drooling, and even my tiger shoves his approval making me purr pretty loudly. Anders grins at me letting me know he is fully aware of the impact he has on me.

So in an attempt to save some of my dignity I school my face in a more blank expression, "You ready to head out?"

He doesn't seem like I convinced him, but he smiles and motions for me to go ahead, "Lead the way gorgeous." I have no idea how I haven't melted a long time ago, I should be a puddle of mush on the floor being subjected to this mans charms on daily basis.

Heading down to the garage Anders choose the only car that is slightly out of the norm, most of the cars are sensible and user friendly, but he has one car he calls his baby. And that is a black and white 1969 Chevrolet Camaro, he told me he saved for two years to buy it, but he could still only afford a really beat up one that he fully restored into the perfection that stands before us now. I've never been really into cars but even I have to admit it is something.

"Can I drive?" I stare at Anders with my most pleading look.

"Off course!" He actually starts to hand me the keys, I can't believe he said yes! but as I reach for them his eyes turn mischievous and he snatches them back.

"As soon as you get a license....and have driven for 5 years....accident free...and have proven that you can be trusted...and.."

"Fine, fine, I get it, you could have just said no," I'm actually pouting like a toddler and I know it.

He merely smiles and kisses my pout right off, "I just don't want my baby to hurt my baby." I wonder if I'm the baby getting hurt or giving hurt in this scene?

As we get in the car I tell him where we're going, cause he's driving so the whole "I will tell you when we get there" doesn't really work.

He holds my hand the entire drive, only letting go to shift gears. We listen to the radio and make light conversation about Axel and Leila, Anders is disappointed at Axel too but he seems to be a little more understanding seeing as he knew Tommy and saw himself how gutted Axel was by his death, even though he didn't know the full story until this morning when he finally shared it. What I find most troubling is what he tells me about werewolves who are rejected, and I thank the Goddess that I didn't leave, I could have killed him! The thought makes the hair on the back of my neck stand, and I feel queasy. But then Get back up again from TROLLS comes on the radio and I decide to put that out of my mind as I start to bellow out the words making Anders look at me with a mixture of amusement and terror. If it's from my singing voice or choice of song I don't know, but for some reason I know the lyrics and love the song.

As we get to the restaurant there is a valet, so I guess this is not on the same scale as McDonalds, but I will keep an open mind. Anders hand over the key in exchange for a little piece of paper with a number on it, he opens the door and places a hand on the small of my back ushering me inside ahead of him.

And wow this place is nice, this has to be where the hoity goes to find their toity.

The interior is mostly light colors and the walls are dark, the tables are set up in a way that gives some privacy and I can see a few booths on higher levels along the wall with big windows offering a nice view of the town and mountains in the distance. There's a huge fish tank in the middle of the room with what looks like small stingrays and sharks swimming around in it. This is impressive, and I'm really starting to understand why Carl told me to breathe easily because he would make sure the bill would be taken care of. If not for that we would need to do the good old "dine and dash", which could end awkwardly with his car in the hands of a valet.

The maitre d' smiles at us when we enter and after checking his computer for our reservation he leads us to one of the private booths and leaves us with a "your waiter will be right with you, please let me know if I can do anything to improve your evening."

"Good evening gentlemen, welcome to Serenity, my name is Ben and I will be your waiter this evening. Here are your menus, our specials today are grilled eggplant with tomato and goat cheese, fillet Wellington served with mixed vegetables and for dessert a warm chocolate pudding cake. Can I start you off with something to drink?"

That sounds so good!

I take a quick look at the drink menu and quickly decide, "I will have a Heineken," can't go wrong with a beer right?

"I'm sorry sir, but I would need to see an ID before I can serve you alcohol."

Damn, I tend to forget that I'm not technically old enough to drink alcohol.

I can hear Anders snicker and I throw a dirty look his way, making him avert his eyes and take a keen interest in the wiev but the smile is still there.

"Fine," guess I will admit defeat and glance back at the drink menu and the non alcoholic choices, "I'll try the Coconut Lavender Lemonade." That sounds pretty interesting, so why not try something new?

"That sounds really good, I'll have that too," Anders gives the waiter one of his biggest smiles and gets a friendly smile in return from Ben.

"I will get that right away, I will be back to take your orders."

Anders turns his attention to me immediately, "Thank you so much for arranging this Kyle, I have been so busy that I feel like I have been neglecting you, and I am so sorry for that." He reaches out and takes my hand and runs his thumb in circles on my skin, and I thoroughly enjoy the tingles running over my skin even at this light contact.

"Don't think that way, I know you are busy you have a lot of responsibility and many people relying on you, and I respect and understand that. Besides, it's not like you don't take care of me when you get the chance." I wiggle my eyebrows at him, making sure he will understand that I'm referring to the many nights we have spent in each others arms, giving and receiving pleasure.

His eyes darken a little, and then he smiles at me, "And I will be sure to give you some extra attention tonight."  Oh man, the promise I can see in his eyes is almost enough to make me grab his arm and storm out of here before eating. But it's free food, and a mans gotta eat.

"Here are your drinks, are you ready to order?" Ben shows back up with glasses filled with a light blue liquid, it looks really tasty.

"I will have todays special," I tell him, cause I don't really know what the things on the menu are anyways. Anders orders the same appetizer as me and the black cod with corn curry broth for his main and the fudge ice cream for dessert.

The night seems to pass by really fast, with us eating, moaning at the perfection that is our food, talking and laughing. It's the perfect date, and I'm loving every moment of it.

As the empty dessert plates are taken away, and we confirm that we can't eat one more bite, Ben informs us that the bill ha been taken care of, and wishes us a good night. We leave him a nice tip and head outside, Anders hands his ticket to the valet and while we wait for the car to arrive he puts his arms around me and pulls me to him in a warm intimate hug. He presses his nose to against my neck and takes in a big breath no doubt enjoying my scent. I can feel his lips feather along my skin and then his tongue sweeps over the spot on my neck I know he will mark me, the kisses and licking gets a little more intense and in no time I'm writhing in pleasure pushing my growing bulge against him as he works my skin no doubt leaving one hell of a hickey.

When he pulls away I can see his eyes shifting between yellow and his usual blue, so Mads is close to the surface. "I have to stop right now, or I will end up loosing control and marking you." His voice is husky and strained as he fights his instincts to mark me.

"Maybe I don't want you to stop, I'm ready for you to mark me and make me yours in every way possible."

As soon as the words leave my mouth his eyes turn almost black, "Are you sure about this? If we do this it can't be undone, we will be bonded together for the rest of our lives."

"I am absolutely sure,  I love you, so take me home and mate me Anders."

He pulls me into a bone crushing hug, "I love you too Kyle, I can't tell you how happy I am to hear those words from you."

At the same time the car arrives at the curb. I pull away a little so I can look him in the eyes, "I'm happy that you're happy baby. Now please, take me home and pound me into the mattress."

"Your wish is my command." With no hesitation he grabs my arm and drags me towards the car, almost throwing some money at the valet with a quick "Thanks" as he opens the car door for me and as I get in he jogs to his side. He leans over and gives me a kiss so hot that it has me hard, throbbing and leaking in my pants. Oh yeah, I'm in for one hell of a ride!
