Two pizzas and equal mounts of soda later I stretched and uncurled myself from where I was sitting. I looked over the living room where my entire pack passed out in a pile on the floor. I retrieved several blankets and after covering them to my satisfaction I went to bed and greeted a dreamless sleep with open arms. The next morning I walked into the kitchen, grabbed a pan and a wooden spoon and then proceeded to make my entire pack miserable by banging them together.
" Rise and shine! Up and at 'em! Come on people, hop to it!" I yelled and stepped closer to the mass of werewolves on my floor. My lovely childer-beasts stirred when I started making the most annoying beeping sound I could possibly make at the loudest volume I could manage. Diana was the first one up, trudging her way to the bathroom to get a shower she ignored my ' That's my girl!' and slammed the door. " Alright, Diana's up who's next?" I sighed and rested my make shift alarm clock on the counter.
That's when I remembered the spray bottle under the sink. Who knew that a well placed spray of water to the back of the neck was such a great way to wake a bunch of teenagers up? With the rest of the kids finally off to school I had the house entirely to myself, well that was before I called Derek at five in the morning. " Oh, goody you're up." I faintly heard a low growl in response.
" It's five o'clock in the morning."
" I know, why are you up to early?"
" You called me."
" Semantics."
" What's up Mars?" He asked, waking up fully.
" Nothing as of now. I was just wondering, when were we planning on telling the packs?" I could hear him sitting up abruptly and throwing on clothing.
" I'll be there in ten minutes."
" Sweetheart, relax. They aren't here right now."
" I know."
" Not that I'm objecting but, why exactly are you coming over then?"
" To see my very sexy mate." I grinned.
" Then why are you putting on clothing?" I asked, he made a low noise in the back of his throat that screamed lust and I chuckled as I bit my lip.
" So you can rip them off." I grinned and sat on the arm of the couch, facing the door. An hour later I was grinning like a mad person and panting, naked, next to an equally happy and naked man.
" I wonder how did our conversation get from ' when are we telling the packs?' to this." I said gesturing to the two of us. He grinned in response and kissed my neck gently, and as if on cue my phone decided to ring. While Derek had ignored my phone and settled for lifting one leg over me, resting his hands on my hips and his lips on the junction of my neck and shoulder. " Heel boy." I said laughing as I reached for my phone." Yes?" I said into the receiver.
" Where is he?" A voice who I recognized as Erica demanded on the other line.
" Preoccupied. What's up?"
" Bullshit. Let me talk to him." She snarled.
" What makes you think that I know where he is?"
" Let's just say I have a feeling. Now, let me talk to him, bitch."
" Go to 9826 East Peach Street and he'll be there. And hurry, he's leaving soon." I growled back and hung up.
" What's going on?" Derek asked, having detached himself from my neck.
" People are stepping on toes and dancing over lines. Get up, I need to get dressed. " I said simply and he moved off of me. I threw on a leather vest that came to a stop at the top of my black skinny jeans. There was a knock on the front door and I had just touched the door handle when Derek growled lowly at me.
" Marcy, what is Erica doing here?"
" Just dropping by." I answered and swung open the door, closing it as I went. She was posed to knock when I opened the front door and landed a kick to her stomach. She flew 50 feet back and into a tree before I ran over to her and lifted her up by her neck. " I am Alpha. You don't have to like me but, you had damn well better respect me." I snarled, my eyes blood red.
" Marcy!" I heard Derek yell from behind me but, knew better than to get to close or involved.
" If I say Derek's in Narnia, you will drop it. Clear?" I asked, completely ignoring my mate. She nodded quickly and I dropped her. I had just turned around when I remembered something and kicked her in the ribs. " And don't call me bitch." I ground out and went back into the house.
" What the Hell was that for?!" Derek yelled as soon as we were alone again.
" Like I told you, she crossed lines that were not to be crossed."
" She's my Beta."
" I'm your Mate."
" She didn't know." He snarled.
" She still shouldn't have done it."
" You shouldn't have beat her up."
" As long as she knows her place in our Pack then it shouldn't be a problem."
" Does our Pack know about us?" He asked after rubbing a hand over his face and calming himself.
" No." I replied and suddenly found the area right above his eyebrow more interesting than his actual eyes.
" We should tell them."
" We should. Are we going to be doing here or at your house?"
" My house."
" When?"
" Tonight." I nodded and sent a group text that basically said that was a Pack meeting at the Hale house tonight.
" Done. Your turn." He took out his phone and did the same.
" What now?"
" Now." I walked up to him and pulled him by the hips closer to me. " We wait." I finished in the huskiest voice I could muster.
What? Tonight was going to be a long one.
