Chapter Red Handed
"Full name?"
"Matteo Evan Reed"
"you?"
"Addasah Natasha Rumanoff" I replied.
"Wait we're you name after-"
"Black widow, the badass chick in Avengers, yeah I wish but no, it's just a coincidence that my grandmother's name is Natasha and it's actually Rumanoff not Romanov,” I laugh lightly.
"So yeah a lot of my teachers thought so too but nah it's different” he smile nodding his head.
"And Addasah?"
"well let just say Addasah is a protagonist of a book call voice in the wind. It's my mom's favourite book. She told me that book leads her to my dad,” Matteo chuckles.
My mother met my dad when she went to our neighbouring pack to buy the limited edition of the book. She was to take the last book from the shelf when my father's hand reaches for it.
My father was only there to buy the book for my grandmother since she dare him for it. It wasn't his kind of things as he was a pretty bad boy at the time.
She always told me those moments were magical in her life, once their eyes met and their scents caught up to each other and she couldn't forget that day.
Where the bad boy gave her the book and went back to his grandmother with nothing because in his heart he already have something far more important.
"You?" I ask him and he stays silent for a moment before he opens up to me about his relationship with his parents.
He told me Luna Shina isn't his mother, his biological mother left him when he was young for another Alpha. He said luna Shina even though he wasn't her biological child but she treated him like the rest of her half siblings like her own.
"I'm sorry" it was the only thing I could tell him and I hope it would make him feel better.
"First kiss?" he ask out of the blue and I found myself blushing with embarrassment.
"Now I believe 20 Questions is over Mr. Future Alpha” I got up from the couch in their private house near the beach.
After he took me to the restaurant he then took me to their beach house away from the eyes of our pack and everyone.
I also learn so many interesting things about him, his likes and dislikes to his high and low moments in life.
Also we have both came to an agreement that we do not want our pack to know our relationship yet.
"Nope, you aren't getting away that easily” he trapped me in his arms and began to tickle me.
I fell on the floor pulling him with me and he fell on top of me. His hands both beside me holding up his weight.
"Now, your first kiss" he ask "you first" he smirks “my girlfriend in fifth grade, now its your turn.”
I stare in his eyes thinking oblivious but then that's him and his life not poor inexperienced me.
Slowly I say in a whisper "you."
It was so embarrassed to know that my mate might be more experienced than me. Someone who has zero experience in the department of love, dating and hooking up.
He leans forward pressing his lips on mine and naturally I began to respond to it feeling blissful in that moment.
He pulls me up from the ground sometimes after "come on, I have to take you home."
Matteo pull the car over in front of our house when we got there.
I saw the lights off and I knew none of my family is back even Cora she must be still at the party or Jem might have picked her up.
"Thanks for tonight. I really did enjoy it" he leans forward and give me kisses on the cheek, lips then finally to my forehead.
I blush smiling to myself then I peck him on the lips.
"I'll see you tomorrow" I got out of the car waving him goodbye.
I smile as I made my way back inside the house. I kept on humming turning on the lights I took off my shoes and turn to find my mom sitting on the couch with a serious look on her face with her folded arms.2
"Take a seat Addasah, I want to ask few things to you" her voice so soft which was unusual to me.
"Mom can we", she cut me off "take a seat" this time she raises her voice.
I knew she's mad and I don't want to be on her bad side. I wipe my sweaty hands on my dress taking a seat on the couch opposite her.
I gulp my saliva nervously waiting for her to ask her questions. The suspense and the atmosphere here in the house was tense.
My mother kept looking at me as if she's analysing me with her folded arms. Then suddenly her lips move and I knew I was deadly in trouble. "This is the last time I would be asking this to you and don't you dare lie to me. Your grandma call” I was surprised to hear that my grandmother calls. Got me wandering what does she knows.
"and we have talked" my mom never smile whike she talks.
"so you better not lie to me young lady. This time I want the truth" this side of my mom was really scary and it's kind of freaking me out with her warnings.
"Now who is Matteo to you?" she stretch out every word, like a threat and I knew I can't hid the truth anymore from her.
So I took a breath, wipe the sweat on my hands then raised my head looking right in her eyes+
"he's my mate."
