My Step-Dad Is My Mate novel Chapter 11

Roseanna's POV (Danica's Mom)

"I'm going to take a shower sweetheart." Richard said to me and I smiled to him with a nod as I rolled the cookie dough.

As he descended up the stairs, my face immediately turned into a scowl.

Who the hell does he think he is?

Does he honestly think I don't know what's been going on between him and Danica? And the balls he has to play nice about it. Son of a bitch has another thing coming.

He probably forced her into it. My baby wouldn't fall into the antics of men so easily unless he played her, made her blind to what he is really doing. Bastard is sleeping with my daughter and thinks he is slick.

I've noticed how Danica and him have been acting. He's even making my baby hate me and push me away. Well, this is the last straw. As soon as Danica gets home, I'm throwing all my cards on the table.

The truth will come out tonight.

Richard's POV

I quickly shut the bathroom door and turned on the shower head. After waiting a few minutes, I quietly opened the window and lifted it then climbed out.

I needed to keep an eye on Danica and that wolf boy. I see what he's trying to do. He's trying to take my mate away from me. Probably, I screwed up my chances with her but that doesn't mean I can't fix it right? Or at least try too.

As I landed on the ground, I didn't bother to take off my clothes and just shifted into my silver/grey wolf and jetted down the street, following Danica's scent as quickly as I could before it was completely gone.

Danica's POV

"Danica."

"Leave me alone let me sleep." I mumbled as I swatted the person's hand away.

"Danica!"

I shot up fast, only to hit my head on the rearview mirror of Aiden's car.

"Ow!" I exclaimed and rubbed my head.

Aiden chuckled and helped me out of the car while I pouted up a storm.

"Come on. We're here." He said and entwined our fingers while we walked by.

I watched around and notices the many houses around. It looks like almost like a pack. Wait, a pack?

"Aiden, where are we?"

"My pack." He said and pulled me towards a very large building.

I froze. Some Alpha's are extremely territorial and don't take well to people from other packs being on their land, especially if they don't know.

"Don't worry" Aiden assured me, "My Alpha knows your going to be here. He isn't bad, trust me."

I nodded and followed close by. Some pack members who were outside stared at us as we walked by with wide eyes and some were murmuring things.

"The Beta has found his mate?"

"She's very pretty."

"I can't wait to see the future Beta babies!"

A bright blush Crept it's way onto my cheeks and I looked down. They thought I was his mate, how ironic.

As we stepped up to the large building's entrance, Aiden opened the door and let me step in first and I couldn't believe my eyes.

It was something like an auditorium I guess I could say. White and red rose petals were scattered all over the floor as well as candles lined up on the floor, making a lit like pathway then the little pathway ends near a table in the center of more petals which were surrounding it.

"Aiden..." I didn't know what else to say. I felt like I had lost touch with my brain for the minute.

God, this is amazing.

"I wanted to make this special for you Danica." He said with a smile then kissed my hand and led me down the candle lit pathway.

"This .....is so beautiful. Oh my God...Just oh my God." I stared around me in utter shock like if I blinked everything would disappear and I'd wake up from a dream.

"Well, it's obvious you like it. I was afraid you wouldn't." He said as he pulled back a chair for me to sit.

"What girl wouldn't like this? Are you serious?" I asked as I sat down, still feeling mesmerized.

Aiden just shrugged then took his seat across me.

"I have some food being prepared for us, it will be here in a bit."

"Alright." I said as I struggled to contain my smiling. I've never felt this happy in forever, I so needed this.

"You dance?" He asked and I smirked as I recalled the night of my birthday and he laughed.

"Not that kind of dance."

I thought for a moment then shook my head. Like I said, I'd never been on a date before or anything like that so I never took a big interest in dancing.

"How about we try?" He asked and I bit my lip.
