“Mm? Why? You have such a perfect ass. I just want to touch it and play with it,” pouted Elias like he was a small child.

“What time do we have to leave for your territory?” I inquired as I was trying to divert his attention away from playing with my ass.

“We need to leave by9 if we want to be there by Noon. I want to introduce you to some very important people, show you around the territory, take you to our lake, and then have a nice quiet dinner tonight,” Elias explained as he stroked my cheek.

“Okay.So, how should I dress? Semi-casual or business casual?” I pondered as I got out of bed and headed toward the closet.

“Well, because we’re traveling first, youcan wear blue jeans and a nice blouse. I’m going to wear blue jeans and a button-down shirt myself,” Elias chimed in as he followed behind me to my closet.

“What if I wanted to wear a casual dress? Would that be acceptable?” Iasked him over my shoulder as I was looking at dresses in the walk-in closet.

“Well,it might be hard to sit on an ATV in a dress. I plan on showing you my territory both walking and riding an ATV. So, I’d recommend the jeans,” Elias replied as he wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed me along my neck.

“Thank you for clarifying that for me.Why don’t you go take a shower first while I go cook breakfast. Then, after breakfast, I’ll take my shower,” I offered as I turned around and faced him with a grin on my face.

“Why don’t we save water and take one together? Hmm?” Eliasqueried with a wolfish grin with his arms still around my waist.

“As lovely asthat sounds, I’m going to have to decline your offer,” I chimed in as I leaned in to kiss his lips. “We have a lot to do today, and I still need to pack.”

“You don’t need to pack very much. In fact,If you only want to pack your intimate things, I have a closet full of clothes waiting for you already,” Elias beamed as continued to pepper my neck with sweet kisses.

“What? You have a closet full of clothes… clothes for me? Why do you have a closet full of clothes for me?” I inquired with my voice fully laced with confusion as I stared at him.

“Well, Drake and I decided since you were going to be spending time with us, we would make it as easy as possible on you. We didn’t wantyou lugging a lot of suitcases from place to place. It didn’t make sense. We also wanted to show you that we could provide for all your needs as a mate,” Elias explained as he cupped my cheek as he looked in my eyes so I could discern his sincerity.

“I understand the concept of not lugging suitcases back and forth, but it would have been nice to have been asked first. I don’t know how to … I …” I couldn’t finish my statement. I shook my head so I could clear my head and form my thoughts. “Elias, why don’t you go take your shower. I’ll start breakfast. I’m not mad at you and Drake for buying me a wardrobe, I’m just shocked is all. Let me adjust. Okay?” I whispered as I eased myself out of his arms.

“Alright. I’ll get my shower and get ready for the day. Do you want me to do anything before I take my shower Bree?” he whispered as he watched me walk over to the bed and start making it.

“No,I’ll straighten the bed and then I’ll make breakfast. Now go, get ready. It’s all good. I promise,” I said as I walked back over to him and gave him a kiss on the lips.

“Okay. I won’t be long,” he advised as he went to get his bag from the living room.

I just finished making the bed as Elias returned to the bedroom with his belongings. I smiled at him as he headed to the bathroom. I picked up my cell phone and headed toward the kitchen as my phone pinged from a text message. It was from Alpha Bennett. We had a situation happened last night on patrol that needed my immediate attention. I headed to the office to my computer to read all about it.

When Elias emerged from the bedroom, he expected to find me in the kitchen cooking breakfast or putting it on the table. He not only didn’t smell anything, but he didn’t see me anywhere. He opened the front door and asked the security detail if I left to which they said I had not. He then went and searched the entire suite. The only room he had not searched was the office. He knocked on the office door and I called out, ‘come in.’

“What’s going on? I couldn’t find you and I started to panic. I thought something happened to you,” Eliasbabbled as he practically ran over to me.

“Alpha Bennett texted me about a situation that happened last night on patrol that needed my immediate attention.I am still in charge of patrols here, so I have to address this situation. As of today, Tom takes over those duties. Anyway, I have to finish this before I can go take my shower and change. Then, I’ll make us breakfast. I have to meet with Alpha Bennett at 9 which means we have to delay our departure. I’m sorry,” I explained as I printed out what I was working on and signed it before placing it in a folder.

“No worries. I too received a text from Bennett explaining that we had to delay our departure and asked me to join you in your meeting.How about I make us breakfast while you are showering? Will that help?” he asked as he extended his hand to me.

“Yes, but I said I would make breakfast. You did after all make dinner last night,” Ipouted as I took his hand in mine.

“Yes, but I don’t mind.I like cooking for you,” he exclaimed as he brought me close for a quick kiss on the lips. “Now, go get your shower and I’ll go cook us some breakfast.”

“Yes sir,” I replied with a grin.

I entered my bedroom and went to get my clothes for the day. I put my clothes on the bed that I wanted to wear. Then, I placed a suitcase on the bed and began to fill it with my most intimate and favorite items from my wardrobe. Once I was finished, I closed the suitcase and took my shower. I fixed my makeup and my hair after I got dressed. I walked out to find Elias finishing breakfast.

He smiled when he saw me walk out with my one suitcase. I placed the suitcase by the door. I then, went back into theoffice to pack up my computer and retrieved the file I needed for my meeting with Alpha Bennett. I placed my computer bag next to the suitcase by the door.

“Do you have everything you need? If so, breakfast is ready. Come, sit down,” Elias stated as he held out a chair for me to sit down in.

“Thank you, kind sir,” I cooed as I he kissed my cheek.

“You’re welcome, my lady,” he professed as he sat down next to me.
