"You're letting me drive the Rolls-Royce?" I ask Aella and she nods, handing me the keys. "Be careful with him," she whispers as she walks to the driver's side, opening the door for me. I chuckle, pecking her cheek before getting in.

I look at the inside in awe, I turn the car on and I fangirl over the purr of the car. "You never let me drive Marco!" I hear Jax yell and I put the window down, flipping him off.

"I don't even trust you with your own kid," Aella tells him before looking at me. "I'm riding my Harley, follow me," she says and I nod. She softly pats the hood of the car, "Put your seatbelt on," she says and I snicker. "Yes Alpha," she sends me a wink and she opens the garage door before starting her Harley.

As Aella rides off, Jax quickly enters shotgun. "Hurry before you lose her," he says and I roll my eyes, following my mate.

"Do you know where we're going?" I ask him and he looks at the road. "Shopping, Elsa, and Jonathan are already at the mall and why not hitch a ride with my sister's mate?" I suddenly stop the car and he hits his head.

"Ow!"

"Should have put on your seatbelt," I joke with a smirk and he glares at me. "Just wait Luna, just wait," he mutters as he puts on his seatbelt. 5 minutes later we arrive at the mall on the other side of the lake.

I park the car next to Aella's motorcycle and I watch as she takes off her helmet, shaking her hair out. "Stop gawking at my sister, weirdo," Jax says with a sour face.

"She's my mate, I'm allowed too," I excuse myself, and he gags. "Get away from me."

We get out of the car and I hear Aella growl. "Jax, I thought you said you didn't want to go shopping," she says and Jax raises his hands in surrender. "I thought about Nicky, he asked for big teddy bear," he says and she rolls her eyes. "Didn't he ask for a car?"

"He did? That's my boy," Jax said and I lock the car. I wrap an arm around Aella's waist and we walk inside the mall.

We met up with Elsa and Jonathan, who gives Aella a tight hug much to my dislike. "Lune," he says and I inwardly groan. "You can call me Adonis," I tell him and he nods before walking ahead with Elsa and my mate.

Jax laughs beside me, "I'll be honest, Luna, this might've been the only reason I came," he says and I ignore him, walking behind them. "You're gonna have to get used to him stealing her for a bit. They've been friends since the Dark Ages," he jokes but I didn't find it funny.

"He's also the Beta so...you're fucked," I growl, looking at Jax. "Shut up, what's your role in the pack, anyway?" I ask him and he groans.

"I'm a Warrior, we start training tomorrow, dueling is my specialty," he says and I hide a smirk. That's my specialty too.

"You wouldn't mind me joining right?" I ask him and he squints at me, "No," he says slowly and I give him a fake smile.

"Do you like kids?" He asks me and I freeze at the sudden question. "Yeah, I do," I respond as I continue walking.

"I know my sister wants some pups, do me a favor and give her one. I'm honestly tired of her taking my son," he says as he looks at his sister. "I..." he sighs, "I also want Nick to have a cousin," he admits and I whistle.

"You want another kid don't you?" I ask him and he scoffs. "No...no," he sighs. "Yeah I do, the problem is...Elsa doesn't want any more kids, so I have a sister and she has a mate, I'm going to steal your kid," he jokes and I shake my head.

Starting a family with Aella sounds amazing but it's too soon. Whatever happens, I will be with her every step of the way.

I hate to admit it...Jax is growing on me.

He's actually pretty cool when he doesn't act like an arrogant asshole. We went Christmas shopping throughout the day many people were staring at me.

"News is spreading fast about you Luna," Jax tells me and I look at the jeweler. "Lune," he says and I smile awkwardly. "You can call me Adonis," I tell him and he bows his head in respect.

"Are you looking for a gift for the Alpha?" He asks me and I nod. "I want to get her a necklace," I say and he nods. "I know the perfect one for Alpha Aella," he says and I follow hi from the other side of the counter.

I gawk at the diamond necklace, "That is perfect," I say and the jeweler smiles widely. "Take it, on me," he says and I shake my head. "No, it's alright, I'll pay for it," I tell him and he places the necklace into the box.

I look around and something caught my eye, a ring.

Marriage, I never even thought of marriage, I forgot about it.

"Oh my gosh, are you planning on proposing?" Jax asks me in a whisper and I shake my head. "No, I was just getting her a necklace!" I exclaim and Jax purses his lips. "2,456 is the total," the jeweler tells me and I flinch at the number.

I turn towards Jax, "I mean, I'm already paying that much...I might as well get one for future purposes," I tell him, and Jax nods. "Shoot, I don't know her ring size," I say, and Jax tenses up.

"Don't worry about it," he takes off his chain, hanging was a rose gold ring with a diamond. "That yours?" I ask him and he ignores me, looking at the ring. "Not mine, someone else's," he says and he looks at me.

"What ring do you want to get her?"

I point to the ring that the author will show you later.

Jax hands the ring to the jeweler. "It's already that size," he says and he hands back Jax's chain.

"Lune, let me give you this ring for free, as a thank you for coming into my store," he pleads and I sigh. "Alright," I give in and he gives me a cheery smile. I pay him a little more than the amount and I said goodbye.

"Don't you dare bring up the ring," I tell Jax and he shrugs. "Whatever you say, Luna," he teases and I roll my eyes.

Aella and I walk into the room and I notice my stuff from my old pack is here. "Oh goody, boxes," Aella mutters tiredly and I place her bags by the walk-in closet. "Can we cuddle?" She asks tiredly and I nod, picking her up, gently placing her on the bed.

I take off her shoes and socks, I learned she doesn't like being in bed with socks. I help her take her jean jacket off, leaving her in her little black dress. I take off my shoes and sweater before climbing into bed with her. I place my head on her chest and I hear her steady heartbeat.

Aella runs her fingers through my hair and I find myself falling asleep.

Then the door bursts open.

"Aella, Nicky wants to talk to you," Elsa says and I get off of my mate with a sigh. "Give me the computer," I tell her, and Elsa hands me the computer before leaving. "Who are you?" A kid's voice calls out and I look at the screen.

I sit down next to Aella and she places her head on my shoulder, smiling at the screen. "Hi Bubba," she coos, and the kid smiles widely. "Lala!" I give my mate a questioning look but she ignores me. "How are you Bub? How's Disney World?" She asks him and he jumps.

He is cute.

"I saw Lilo & Stitch!"

I want kids right now.

"Who's that guy?" He asks Aella and she blushes. "He's my mate, Bub, remember when we talked about Mates?" The kid looks at me before frowning, reminds me of Jax. "You said we're supposed to love our mates foreva," Aella cuddles closer to me. "Yeah Bub, this is Adonis-"

"Ah Otis?"

Aella opens her mouth but she let out a laugh. "Yeah Nicky," I roll my eyes and the kid said his goodbye.

"Ah Otis?" I ask her with a smirk and she pecks my lips. "Ah Otis."
