His Human Mate

Chapter 4

Lola

I woke with a smile on my face, the sun was shining through the window rays dancing on my cheeks.

Rolling over I reached out for Dean but was met with an empty spot. Quickly sat up and looked down where he would have been laying my hand on the sheet it was cold so he left the bed a while ago.

Gathering the sheet up I flipped it off me walking to the end of the bed I grab my robe and slid it on tying the band around me.

I walked out listening I heard movement from the room at the end of the hall. Walking down I could hear music playing I popped the door open to find him lifting weights.

It's like he could feel me he stopped and turned to look at me.

"Sorry I didn't mean to bother you," I smiled at him.

Placing the weights down he walks over shuts the music off then comes over to me.

"It's okay I woke early and figured I'd get a workout done, you just waking?"

He says then kisses my cheek.

"Yes, When do you plan on leaving for work?"

"Soon actually I need to get going now have to meet a client this morning,"

He steps around me and walks back to our room,

"Is there something you needed?" He asked while starting the shower and stripping out his clothes tossing them in the basket.

" Oh Umm I'm off today it's my three-day off rotation I thought maybe we could have breakfast together,"

"Hmmm," Was all he said.

"Or maybe we can do dinner tonight? I'd like to spend more time with you,"

He stopped turning towards me.

"Well I can't make any promises but we can try for dinner I have some big cases coming up and it's gonna make me work late a little more than normal,"

I felt my heart dip a little at his words.

"Oh ok well I don't want to interfere with your work, if you want just message me, and if you are done early enough then we can make plans,"

I put on my best fake smile for some reason I just didn't want him to see my disappointment.

"That sounds great!" He steps forward kissing me. When he stepped back.

"This is why you are my wife you always understand how important my work is"

He then spins getting in the shower I just hang my head and walk out head in for the kitchen may as well make some coffee.

Twenty minutes later Dean come into the kitchen dressed to impress as always I made him a travel mug of coffee knowing he wasn't staying for one.

"Oh by the way we have the firm annual fundraiser this weekend,"

"Yes, I remembered I'm going to go dress shopping today,"

"Good, make sure it's something elegant I need you to look top-notch there are going to be people there that the firm is trying to partner with, and right now all eyes are on me,"

"I promise I won't make you look bad,"

"Good," He walks to me and kisses my cheek, grabbing his mug from the counter next to me he walks out without another word.

I just don't understand him any more last night was great and today he's as cold as a brick.

Taking my coffee I head to our room I need to shower and get a move on if I'm going to find a dress for this weekend which is only like two days away.

Just as I reach my room I heard my phone ringing.

Shoot maybe it was the hospital calling picking up my pace I hurried into the room grabbing it off the dresser.

"Hello!" I puffed out from rushing and trying to not spill the coffee all over.

"Lola you alright?" I hear Ava's voice.

"Oh, Ava it's you, sorry I heard my phone thinking it was the hospital calling I ran from the other room,"

"Ah, that's way your sound winded. Hey, I'm off today I was wondering if you wanted to maybe get some lunch,"

"Well I actually," I didn't even get to finish.

"Lola Carter, you are always turning down my offers! You never go anywhere you are always alone your husband is never there just this one time Lola,"

"Oh jeez, Ava! Calm down I was going to say I have to go dress shopping if you want we can go together and then grab lunch afterward,"

"Oh, Umm sorry about that, yes I would love to go. Wait what do you need a dress for?"

"Deans firm is having their annual fundraiser this weekend so I need a nice dress to attend with him,"

"Okay well I will swing in and pick you up text me your address and we can do a girl's day,"

"Alright, Ava but give me like an hour I need to shower first,"

"That sound good see you then don't forget the address,"

"Yes, Ava, bye!"

"Bye,"

I hang up quickly and text her my address, not even a second later.

( Got it to see you soon chicky)

Maybe spending the days with Ava will take my mind off, Dean besides I could use an extra opinion on a dress.

Laying my phone down I head to the bathroom need to be ready cause if Ava gets here and I'm not dressed I can see her going off the deep end.

Cash

"Ace we are taking that job at the fundraiser for Anderson Firm this weekend,"

Groaning he sits back against his chair.

"Why Cash? You know that old man is up to something,"

"I doubt and besides the other companies have turned his offer down we are the last ones,"

"Seriously, why would they turn him down? that new little company handled the security last year for it?"

"Yeah but I guess some press people got through posted some not-so-attractive pictures of drunk people it was a disaster,"

"Well, I hope you at least are gonna charge the s**t out of him,"

"Ha yeah man I sent him an offer this morning it's double what we normally charge, but hey if he wants the best security he gonna have to pay for it."

Just then my cell rings looking at the ID I see it was my sister calling.

Hitting the answer button.

"Yes dear sister what is it this time,"

" Now why would you assume I would be needing something every time I call?"

"Because I know you, either it's money or a favor,"

"Cash!" She screams my name holding the phone away from my ear.

Ace scrunches his face and winces at how loud she was.

"Dam Ava my ears!"

"Look I only had a question but if you're too dam busy for your sister then that's fine, I'll hang up now,"

"NO, Wait You know I'm only joking with you, Now what did you want to ask,"

"Fine whatever, The Anderson Firm they are having its big fundraiser this weekend you wouldn't happen to be doing security for that?"

" Well Mr. Anderson sent me an email the other day and I just sent him my offer for covering that event, Why?"

"If you take the job can I attend with you? I know you usually walk inside while the guys are outside, I want to attend,"

"You want to go to a fundraiser? Ava these people are crazy rich you are not gonna like it,"

"I know Cash, but my friend from work is going remember I told you about her husband? Well I want to go I know he will leave her alone and I want to be there for her,"

I looked at Ace he can hear what she saying even though we are on the phone. Great werewolf hearing. I raise my brow at him to see what he thinks. He shrugs and gives a small nod.

"Alright, Ava if they give us you can go with me, but Ava I will say this don't be planning anything stupid you hear me?"

"Yes Cash, I won't do anything,"

"Good, you even think about misbehaving and I'll have Ace deal with you,"

All I heard was a gasp and the line went dead.

"Really man,"

"Yes,"

"Why me?"

"Because She likes you and she has been avoiding you since your mate rejected you so threatening her with you will make her behave herself,"

I see him rub his chest at the mention of his mate, it's been a month which the with the next full moon their bond will be complete he will find his second mate,

My computer dinged showing I had a new email clicking on it I scan over it.

"Well Ace looks like we have a fundraiser to attend,"
