"Well, then we have to buy fancy looking clothes first, we can walk into a restaurant looking so poor," Lion says and gives my simple outfit a look, "No offense, but jeans in a fancy restaurant is a no-go." I can just blink. I can’t believe this guy is criticizing me. "You really grew up rich," I mumble, because that was borderline bullying, "How do you suppose we will buy clothes, hm? Are we going to have your rich parents pay for it?” "Did I really say buy?" he asks. At this point, I know him enough that the doesn't even have to finish. I already know what he's about to say so I close my eyes in stress, "I meant, we're going to steal some clothes." Yeah, I was right. Oh, god. Lion drives to a fucking mall. A real mall. The one in my city was destroyed the first week after the werewolves arrived, but this one seems alive. It has a lot more security though. "We have to be super careful," I say as I walk next to Lion, my heart pumping like crazy. But in a good way. I kinda d
We walk around the mall for a while and I can’t help but notice how everyone here is just living life, normal life. I guess they have a good Mayor, very unlike the one in my city. He has enough police to control the criminals and take care of people, even amidst chaos. And it helps they were clearly ultra-rich before this mess. Motherfuckers.The tiny amount of guilt I felt completely disappears right then and I pull Lion’s hand when I find a store that sells both men’s and women’s clothes. “Wait, let’s make this even more fun,” Lion says, stopping me as soon as we walk into the store. He has that naughty smile again. I sigh and prepare myself, "Let's pick each other's outfits. I pick yours, you pick mine."That has the potential of being disastrous. But as I’m looking up at his dumb, stupid, childish smile, I feel... infected. He's infecting me with his excitement."No," I finally say, making his smile drop, "It's not fair, you're going to make me wear something like a mini skirt a
When Lion starts stripping, I do the same, trying not to feel self-conscious. I know I'm not that fat lately because I haven't eaten junk food in a month, but still, I don’t have the best body out there. I get down to my panties and bra and just because I can't help myself, I look at Lion to see if he's looking... and he is. "It's fair," he quickly defends himself when he realizes I caught him, unsure but bold, "Right? or are you uncomfortable?” "I guess it's fair, I did comment on your dick," I mumble, biting down on my bottom lip and opening my arms to let him look. Lion is smiling as if he's amused, but that's nothing new. "You do have a fat ass," he repeats, making me roll my eyes, "The fattest I've ever seen. And I haven't even seen it right now, I just... I've been thinking that ever since I saw you mop. I like your boobs too." That makes me laugh out loud. He's so dumb. And just because he made me laugh, I turn around to show him my ass for a second. I even shake it a l
"Okay, I'm ready to go," I say, putting my purse around my body and turning to Lion. He smiles and his eyes light up the whole universe. He's so excited. "Jump on me," he orders and turns around to squat in front of me. I lift my dress a bit to make sure I can open my legs and I jump on his back without the fear of breaking him, since he proved himself earlier. Lion easily grabs my legs and even makes me jump until I'm higher on his back. I wrap my arms around his neck, "Hold on tight, okay? I promise I won't let you fall, but I need you to hold on because I'll be going fast." "Okay," I say, my tummy going insane. I haven't felt this excited in... ever, probably. I tighten my grip on his neck again, "I'm trusting you with my life, Lion. A-wait did you take a shower today? Because you smell really good." "I did, actually. Just for you," he says, looking at me over his shoulder, "And you can fully trust me, don't worry." I won't worry. He feels very sturdy and strong right now,
When the hostess takes us to a table in a corner, Lion decides to sit right next to me instead of across from me and I realize it's because he doesn't want to let go of my hand, even when I try to pull it away from his grasp."Stop it. We have an image to maintain," he scolds me, forcing me to keep holding his hand. Then he grabs one of the menus and brings it closer so we can both read it at the same time. And just like we said, we order an exorbitant amount of dishes, starting with the most expensive ones, "And a bottle of your best wine, please."I raise my eyebrows in surprise but don't question it because that means we'll probably be robbing them of thousands of dollars. Alcohol is also completely inaccessible now, but the waiter only smiles at Lion's confident order and nods before leaving. Once the waiter returns and explains how exquisite this red wine is, he pours a little bit for Lion to taste."Hm, it is quite exquisite indeed," he says with a smile I now recognize as full
This is the biggest meal I’ve had in a few weeks, since some idiot decided to come out and declare to the human race that we exist. Us, werewolves. We have existed as long as humans, but we always knew it was best to stay secret and separated. Now, the whole world is in shambles because humans couldn’t handle the truth. Some places are better than others, some governments have decided to form a truce with a few Alphas, but some other places are still scared of us. Like most of this country. That’s why I’ve been trying to hide my real self. I’m tall, but not abnormally tall for a human. However, being tall AND big can raise suspicions I don’t need. I’ve been gaining muscle way too easily lately, so I’ve decided to starve myself to stay as lean as I can because I really need to go unnoticed, but it’s hard.Everything in my life is fucking hard.I was born the third son of the royal family in my pack, with no father. My oldest brother (Archie) has been the King since he turned eightee
By the time we finish eating, I can tell that Jolene is very drunk and it's extremely amusing to see her giggling and smiling at everything I say, without calling me any names. She’s being the opposite of the girl I know. I love her either way, but it's nice to see she has a fun side too. She looks extremely cute like this, with red cheeks and half-closed eyes because she’s smiling so hard. She also has very cute teeth, all of them are very straight except the two front ones, they are slightly separated. I’m enjoying this so fucking much, I never want to leave… but I kinda have to, before someone I know walks into the restaurant again. We finish eating the one dessert we ordered because we couldn’t stop ourselves and then comes my favorite part: the escape. "Are you ready for the dash?" I ask Jolene, giving her an excited look. "I'm very ready," she answers, giving me a thumbs-up. I rub my hands together and get up, stretching a bit to let the incredible amount of food I just
I seriously hope I'm not making a horrible mistake by inviting him in, but at this point it's too late to regret this tipsy decision I'm making."Wow, this is your house?" Lion asks in a surprised tone as I take out my keys to unlock the multiple locks, "When did you do all this?""If you mean the security, it's always been like this. My mom was the richest one in this shitty street and didn't trust the neighbors," I let him know as I finally open the door, "The fence is electrified, too. Two different guys have already been electrocuted trying to get in.""Oh, shit," Lion laughs, I guess imagining the situation. But it wasn’t that funny, "And where's your mom now, does she live here too?""She's dead, probably burning in hell as we speak. She was a huge bitch," I inform him, watching as he walks past me. From this moment on, he could officially flip the switch and turn me into the homeless person, but Lion just looks at the house and shows no sign of wanting to kill me to take over t
