“Where did you go?!” I freak. I thought they took you, you jerk!
“Anna calm down, I forgot some papers in my car so I went to get them.”
I can’t take this stress, this unknown person is driving me insane. I’m about to loose my mind, I mean that person was just outside the same time Tyler was. What if something happened to him. My phone beeped again.
From: unknown
I wouldn’t tell Tyler unless you want to take him and his pack down with you.
“What was that? Who just text you?”
“No one, it was nothing important.” I stammer as I shove my phone in my back pocket.
His face turns stern and he lets out a sigh. “Anna who was it?”
I look down at my feet, crap I suck at coming up with lies on the spot! “Um it was Nicole, it was about the baby.”
He raises an eyebrow. “Okay…” His voice is unsure. “Why are you crying?” He questions while stepping closer.
“N-No, my eyes are just irritated.” Nice one Anna!

“Have fun on your date you two!” Katy calls as we get in Tyler’s car.
I wore a simple black dress and white kitten heels. I didn’t want to look too overdressed or too underdressed.
We drove downtown to a new restaurant that opened yesterday. Since Tyler is who he is we got reservations easily. We were lead to our table for two and given menus. The restaurant wasn’t too fancy, it was just right for us. I hooked my purse on the back of my chair and scanned through the menu. I pretty much wanted to get everything but I’m a lady, not a pig.
“See anything you like?” Tyler asks casually.
I glance up at him and smile, I can’t believe I’m actually on a date with him. My tough, rogue-slaying, drool worthy, smart, and handsome mate, my mate. “The salmon sounds good, so does the golden Yukon potato soup. Anything you like?” I glance up at him.
“You look pretty delicious.”
Ugh, it’s so good! Oh god, I could do this forever! I let out a quiet moan.
This food is so damn good!
I ended up ordering the golden Yukon potato soup, and it did not disappoint. Tyler ordered some fancy steak that I don’t remember the name of, he’s so manly. I held the spoon up to my lips again and swallowed the addicting soup. This should be our regular place for date night, I should probably tell Tyler that I made date night a thing.
No texts, no pains, no worries! Tonight was just perfect, the best part was that I was with my mate. May I say he may be a rogue slayer but right now he is my European prince. Am I pretty sure he’s European? Not from Europe but his heritage has to be Italian.
“How is everything?”
The waiter brings me back to reality and I answer with a simple ‘perfection!’.
The whole time Tyler and I small talked, just learning more things about each other. He became Alpha at 18 because his father stepped down, I guess being Alpha comes with a lot of pressure.
Then it happened, the only thing that I didn’t want to happen… it buzzed, my phone buzzed.
My face went blank and I carefully looked around the room, I didn’t see anyone suspicious.
“Anna what’s going on? Are you okay?”
I snap back to Tyler. “Ya, um everything is fine.” I almost can’t fight the urge to read the text. I smile awkwardly and glance at my purse, it’s in there, my phone. It’s so close…
“Who text you?” He asks laced with seriousness. I shrug and shake my head.
“Anna give me your phone.” He orders and holds out his hand.
I look at his hand in pure terror. “Oh no, it’s fine I can-”
“Anna give me the phone.”
Oh no, oh no, I slowly reached in my bag and grasped my phone. Do I give it to him? Or dunk it in my water?
My heart starts to race uncontrollably as I hold it across the table and drop it into his hand. He looks at the screen, reading the message.
Oh god please, let this all be a dream, what if the guy was serious. Will he really attack our pack? Will he hurt Tyler? I held my breath until he spoke.
“Nicole is in labor.” He breaths out.
Thank god!
Wait…
“Let’s go!” I panic and grab my purse, Tyler throws money on the table and we took it to his car. We climb in and Tyler speeds off to the pack doctor.
