Chapter 31


Flicker's POV

"What are we watching" Connor asks as he joins me on the couch, snuggling up next to me.

"I don't know, I'm in the mood for a romantic comedy"

"Romantic comedy, no thanks" Jake declares handing me the popcorn. "I think I have some paperwork to finish off"

"No you don't" I grab his hand pulling him onto the couch next to me.

"What do I get, if I spend the next two hours watching some inane show with you"

"My love" I state, a smile curling at my lips

"I thought you love me already" he replies, looking at me in complete shock, but the mirth in his eyes reveals that he knows I'm joking.

"I do" I say grabbing a handful of popcorn. "But I'd love you even more if you'd watched a movie with me"

" I would consider her proposal Jake, she strikes a good deal" Connor quips, grabbing the bowl

"Fine" he relents. Go choose a movie"

"Yes" I squeal, I place a small kiss on his cheek before running over to the DVD drawer.

Looking at all these DVD's, I think back to the past two weeks. After that day in the forest things had started to improve. They hadn't found the mole in the pack, which had frustrated the Alpha's, but they hadn't once brought up my interaction with Kyle.

Last Sunday we had dinner at Carolyn's house, thankfully it had gone a lot smoother than before, the topic of children wasn't brought up, but the conversation was still very forced. I don't think she's forgiven me yet for cheating on her sons.

With the Alpha's being busy with pack work I had spent most of my days with Cassidy, our friendship had really blossomed over the past two weeks.

"Flicker have you found one yet" Connor asks jolting me out of my thoughts

"Ummm" I quickly flick through the DVD's. "Got it" I pull out Notting Hill showing it to them.

"Haven't seen it before"

"Even better" I say placing it in the DVD player.

...

"I love that movie" I say. The end credits had just started to roll, my mates had been quiet throughout the movie, no snide remarks from Jake about the story. I actually think they had secretly enjoyed it as well.

"Okay lets go to bed" Connor says as he gets off the couch

"Yeah come on Flicker, I'm exhausted" Jake agrees following Connor off the couch

I stare up at my mates, my thoughts running a million miles a second. These two weeks had been perfect, this night had been pure bliss. I think we were ready, I was ready.

"Mark me" I blurt out

Jake and Connor freeze in their spot before turning around to face me. I glance at Jake, his eyes a swirl of blue and black. His wolf was present.

"Flicker you don't have to do this if you're not ready" Connor says sitting back on the couch, he laces his hand through mine sending sparks spiralling down my skin.

"There is no pressure" Jake says, his face so serious. "Flicker you are so precious to us, we're happy to wait a month, a year or five years until you want us to mark you.

"I know there's no pressure, but who knows what's around the corner. I want to do it while we're all here and safe.

"Okay" Connor says looking at me intently.
