Episode 16

Derek

As soon as Siena and I bathed, she quickly went to the room where she was before coming to mine, to get dressed. After all, starting today, she will be sleeping in our room. It's amazing how my fever simply vanished after we mated. While I think about it, I start preparing a special breakfast.

Soon she approaches and, assessing me, asks:

"Need any help?"

Smiling as I look at her, I reply:

"No need, I want to make you this special breakfast. By the way, little Jasmine isn't awake yet?"

She smiles and replies:

"She's sleeping soundly, clinging to the doll. Do you think I should wake her?"

While preparing some pancakes, I reply smiling:

"Let her enjoy a little more sleep. As soon as I'm done, you can wake her up."

Siena nods smiling, and then I take the opportunity to say:

"After breakfast, we'll go to the pack seamstress. I'll have new clothes made for you and the little one."

She smiles shyly and, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, softly tells me:

"Thank you. But I don't want to be a bother."

I then call her, and she comes to me. I stop preparing breakfast for a moment, hug her, and kiss her head as I say:

"You are my mate, Siena, not only in bed, but in life, and I will never let you go without. Understand, everything that is mine is yours now."

She nestles in my arms, and I feel her breathing calm. There is a peace and a security in having her so close to me, knowing that we are now one. I turn my attention back to breakfast, determined to make something special to mark our first day together as mates.

When I'm almost done preparing the pancakes, Siena goes to call Jasmine. I, on the other hand, finish preparing and setting the table, placing the golden pancakes on a platter and arranging honey, fresh fruit and cream alongside.

Soon, Siena and Jasmine arrive. Siena smiles as she holds Jasmine's hand, who looks a little sleepy, but happy. I smile at the little one and ask:

"Good morning, little one, did you sleep well?"

She smiles and hugs the little wolf doll she is holding tighter, replying enthusiastically:

"Yes, the bed is so warm and soft. Thank you, Uncle Derek."

My heart warms with her joy. We sat at the table, and I saw the sparkle in Siena's eyes as she looked at the pancakes.

"I hope you like them," I say, serving the pancakes onto their plates.

Jasmine takes a bite and her eyes sparkle even brighter.

"It's delicious!" she exclaims, making everyone laugh.

Siena looks at me, her eyes full of gratitude and love. We don't need words to understand what we're feeling. The connection between us is deep and true.

During breakfast, we chatted about small details of our new daily life. Jasmine's joy is contagious, and Siena seems more relaxed, with a constant smile on her lips.

After finishing breakfast, we get ready and leave. The morning sun is shining, and the pack is beginning to awaken with the morning movement. We walk together to the seamstress's house, feeling the welcoming glances of the pack members.

When we arrive, to my surprise, we are greeted by the same little girl who gave me the doll Jasmine is holding now. Her face lights up when she sees us.

"Good morning, Alpha!" she says with a radiant smile.

Returning the smile, I reply:

"Good morning, little one. This is Siena, my mate, and this is Jasmine, the little girl you gave the doll to."

The two look at each other, and Jasmine quickly approaches the other girl, hugging her gratefully.

"Thank you!" Jasmine says, her voice full of joy.

The other little girl smiles and returns the hug, holding Jasmine dearly. Then, looking at Jasmine, she says:

"I have more dolls inside. Let's play?"

Jasmine looks at us expectantly, and Siena and I look at each other, smiling before nodding together. The two run off, chatting excitedly, leaving behind a trail of happy laughter.

Soon, the little girl's mother appears at the door, smiling warmly.

"Good morning, Alpha and Luna," she says, bowing slightly as her eyes dart from me to Siena.

"Good morning," I reply, waving back. "We came so you could make some new clothes for Siena and Jasmine."

The seamstress invites us in, and we begin to discuss Siena and Jasmine's needs and preferences. As she measures Siena, I notice how much more relaxed and comfortable my mate is in her presence. The seamstress's attentive and caring gaze seems to soothe any nervousness Siena may still have.

"I'm going to make clothes that will make them feel comfortable and elegant," says the seamstress with a twinkle in her eye. "It will be a pleasure to clothe the newest members of our family."

Siena looks at me again, and I see the gratitude and trust in her eyes. She is adjusting to this new life, and it fills me with pride and happiness.
