Chapter Thirty-Eight: Zeke's Date (Part One)
Wednesday
Emerald's POV:
"You did what? No, no, I don't believe you!” said Hannah.
She and I were in her private Beta dining room. Surprisingly, she had moved back to the Beta quarters, and this dumb bum didn't even bother telling me. I had to find out by an omega who came to clean my room in the morning when I couldn't find her. According to her, with the way the quads and I were getting handsy, she and Luca weren't needed in the Alpha quarters anymore. Plus, she said she didn't want to be traumatized if she ever walked into my room and saw her brothers humping every damn hole I had. The moment she said that I was beet-freaking-red; she's bat-shit crazy sometimes. I was so happy Luca or the quads weren't around. That would have been awkward if they heard whatever Hannah said, well, more for me. The quads didn't seem to give a care in the world when it came to explicit comments regarding our relationship.
Dumb male Alphas, always thinking more with their downstairs then their heads!
The moment I entered the Beta quarters, I was bombarded with questions regarding my two dates. Even though I knew I could never hide anything from this she-devil, just remembering what Azreal and I did yesterday on the yacht had my insides curling. I didn't know how to tell her all that. However, we weren't best friends for nothing; she saw straight through me that I was hiding something and made me spit out everything to the smallest detail, which may I add, was awkward as hell.
I never knew one could cum like that. Hell! I didn't even know it could feel that good. Eli and I never even properly made out, always saying that we would take the next step once we knew we were mates so that it would be unique. But if I knew it could feel this good, would I have made a different decision back then? Thinking about it, probably not. Even though we were together, deep down I always knew that it didn't feel right, and me being me with my insecurities hid that small voice so far away in my head that it didn't see the light in my mind again. That backfired anyway, so I guess it wasn't a good idea.
"Hello, earth to, Em! Stop daydreaming and tell me you aren't lying and you actually did have your first orgasm,” said Hannah.
I covered her mouth with my hands, the tips of my ears going red. Omegas were roaming around cleaning up her quarters. I didn't need to be the centre of gossip between all the omegas today because Hannah couldn't keep it down.
"Shh, Han, seriously, keep it down," I said, pulling my hands away and giving her a stern look.
She just chuckled and put her hands up in surrender, but prompted me to answer her question.
Ugh!
"Yes! Now be quiet. I don't want someone overhearing us,” I said.
She squealed and jumped out of her chair to hug me.
"Oh, Em, I'm so happy at least you're not a virgin in that department anymore," she said laughing.
Seriously, Han, seriously?
I just gave her a scowl, to which she laughed.
"Okay, so you've done at least something sexual with the elder two idiots. Do you think dumb and dumber will make a move as well? Because, from how much I know my darling older brothers, there are no secrets. I'm sure Azreal told them about your and his little escapade on the yacht,” said Hannah, serious as if this was a life-altering discussion.
Hannah and her priorities, you gotta love her!
It didn't seem far-fetched to believe that Azreal had told the rest of his brothers. I also knew they shared everything between themselves, but the real question was how will I face them all, they probably knew everything. Yesterday I fell asleep in the car again on the way back to the packhouse, and although I did feel the quads cuddle up next to me at night, I was too exhausted to wake up. When morning came, they were all gone. The omega I asked about Hannah, said the quads told her to inform me that they were busy with the Lycan Kings, and that Zeke had mentioned being ready by one for his date.
"I don't know, Han, but with how things have been going, I wouldn't put it past Zeke and Sam not to do anything. Out of all of them, Sam is the cheekiest, but Zeke isn't far behind, and honestly...,” I said blushing, remembering how intimate we've all been getting this past week "...I kind of like it. I enjoy their touch. Like yeah, it gives this weird curling pleasure in my tummy, but it also soothes me, like I'm safe in their arms,” I said.
Looking up at Hannah, I saw her giving me a small smile. Her eyes held so many emotions: love, gratefulness and mostly happiness. Getting up, she came and hugged me again.
Huh?
"It's the bond, Emerald. It's doing its magic. See, I told you that once you open your heart, you'll see the magic the bond does. It's a gift by the Goddess to be blessed with a mate; in your case four, and even if they are my idiot dimwitted brothers, you'll see how happy you'll be and even them. You've been through so much. You deserve this more than anyone I know sweetheart, and I'm sure as hell now you'll make a great Luna,” she said.
I couldn't help the moisture that accumulated in my eyes. I hugged her back in a vice-like a grip. She was right, one hundred percent right. If it weren't for her telling me to open my heart, none of this would've been happening. I would've been finding ways to get out of here and keep denying the bond. I don't know if I deserve this or not or if I'll be a good Luna, but I sure know I will be a good mate to the quads.
"Okay, now go. It's already eleven-thirty and Zeke wanted you to be ready by one,” said Hannah, letting go of me and wiping the few tears that fell on my cheeks.
"...and oh, maybe keep the v-card till your birthday. You know to make it special,” said Hannah winking.
I blushed.
Well, there’s the Hannah I know, the cheeky little bum!
Laughing, I swatted her arm and got up to leave.
"Remember, I want all the deets when you’re back,” she sang out as I walked out of the Beta quarters.
I laughed.
She was definitely crazy!
What should I wear today? Zeke didn't specify anything in particular as Ezekiel and Azreal did. As always, he didn't bother telling me where he was taking me.
Ugh! Choosing clothes would be so much easier if they gave a least a slight hint, but nope, it has to be a surprise.
I couldn't help the small smile that crawled up my lips thinking about my stubborn bum Alphas.
Finally admitting that they were my Alphas felt so surreal, it still felt impossible, but I knew it wasn't. We would officially be mates in three days; I can't fathom how amazing that will feel once the mate-bond fully hits!
Walking into the room, my eyes immediately fell on the massive bouquet of peach coloured roses that had the room smelling marvellous. Quickly coming inside and closing the door, I rushed toward the flowers; as I got closer, I noticed another box wrapped in a peachy sparkle gift wrap.
I didn't know how many roses were in the bouquet, but I was sure there wasn't any less than at least two hundred; the whole thing would cover my entire upper body. Seeing a white note sitting out, I grabbed it. It read:
My Sweet Angel,
I know these aren't as beautiful as you, but I wanted to start our day with a bang. I hope you like them!
P.S. I couldn't let my big brothers outdo me, so I got a bigger and better one!
Love,
Zeke
I couldn't help the chuckle that left my mouth, these Alphas were crazy! Leaning in, I inhaled the roses deeply, they smelt amazing! These small gestures made my heart swell. As much as the fancy expensive things were excellent, nothing beats the simplicity of flowers and chocolates; maybe they finally realized that.
Grabbing the wrapped square box, I shook it, to hear if I could tell what was inside, but no sound came out from it. Huh! Unwrapping the present, there was a Dolce and Gabanna box; never mind, they didn't realize that expensive gifts weren't needed. I chuckled. Opening the box, inside was a beautiful light pink sweater. It had small flowers of different colours knitted around the whole thing, with a v-neck and was one of those baggy style ones. It was beautiful. Unfolding it, another piece of white paper fell out;
My Angel,
It might get a little cold tonight. Maybe pack a sweater?
Love,
Zeke
I laughed. I got the message, Zeke, loud and clear. Shaking my head, I quickly went to the bathroom to shower. I had an hour to get ready. Quickly showering, blow drying my hair and then styling it into a french twist. I applied some makeup; my go-to winged eyeliner, pink blush and highlighter, but today I wanted to be a little brighter, so I put on a pale pink lip-gloss, finishing it off with a think coat of mascara.
Then, searching for an outfit for today, I was so confused. I didn't know where we would be going, and Zeke didn't give any hint about the attire needed. I guess casual then? I picked out a pair of skinny black jeans with a few ripped threaded holes around them, and paired them with a light pink long sleeve crop-top. Giving myself a once-over, satisfied, I went to choose my shoes for the day. I had never thought so much about my outfits before the quads; every day, it was like a mission to choose what to wear. There were so many options in this closet it was confusing, and everything being expensive and fancy sometimes made me feel uncomfortable, that maybe I wasn't fit to wear all this. I liked keeping it simple, but I guess these changes had to come with being the future mate to the quads and Luna to the second biggest pack of the realm.
Deciding on a pair of black Yeezy, I tied them. Getting up and giving myself a once-over again, I walked out. The moment I was in the room, there was a knock on the door and Zeke and Sam walked in.
