Her Mate Dilemma

14 - A Pleasant Morning

Brady 

    When I woke up to my mate snuggling against my side, there was no stopping my lips from curving up to form an ear to ear smile.

    I was trying to stay awake while Alexandria was in the shower, but I was entirely way too tired after the roller coaster of emotions I had been dealing with the past few days. However, I woke up enough to wrap my arms around her body and tell her goodnight, then I fell right back asleep.

    The next morning, I woke up before Alexandria, but this time I stayed laying in bed beside her. There was a little sunlight shining in between the curtains, and it was just enough to give me a good view of my mate's beautiful face.

    I loved how her jet black hair contrasted with her tanned skin. It was obvious that she had been spending a lot of her time outdoors, and I hoped to be included in her outdoor time moving forward.

    I was still admiring her face, when I saw the corner of her lip twitch a few times. It made me want to kiss her, so that's what I did.

    I slowly leaned closer, then I gently pressed my lips against hers and closed my eyes. A split second later, I felt her fingers run through my hair, as her full, soft lips massaged mine in return.

    Those wonderful sparks instantly flowed between us, and I didn't want them to stop anytime soon. After almost a minute of our lips being molded together, I swiped my tongue across her lower lip and waited to see if she would grant me the entrance I was asking for.

    A second later, Alexandria parted her perfect lips for me, and I didn't waste any time darting my tongue into her deliciously sweet mouth. As our tongues tantalizingly danced together, she fisted my hair and moaned into the passionate kiss.

    When we had to break the intense kiss in need of air, I trailed featherlike kisses along her jawline to her ear, then I huskily mumbled, "Can we just stay here like this all day?"

    Alexandria giggled at me, before she cheekily replied, "No way, mate. You already told me, I can watch you train today."

    I groaned in protest, then I playfully nibbled on her little earlobe, before I affectionately murmured, "You taste so sweet, I just want to lay here and kiss you."

    Her body trembled in response to my words, as she happily remarked, "We can come back here after training and kiss the evening away."

    "I love the sound of that," I mumbled against her ear, then I trailed soft kisses back down her jawline. When I reached her lips again, I gave her another passionate kiss.

    We were both enjoying a very intense make out session, when my dad barged into my bedroom, while enthusiastically chirping, "It's time to rise and shine. Training starts in twenty minutes."

    I tore my lips away from my mate and glared at my dad, as I angrily asked, "Don't you know how to knock?"

    "I know how to, but I choose not to. Now, get out of bed," he retorted with a small smile playing on his lips.

    I released a sigh of total frustration, then I glanced down at my mate. Instantly, the frustration I was feeling got replaced with happiness, as I gazed into her beautiful, light brown eyes that were swirling with love.

    She had the prettiest smile lighting up her face, and I just wanted to kiss those full lips again. However, my dad was still standing in my doorway, so instead, I rested my forehead against hers and dejectedly mumbled, "I guess we will have to finish this later."

    Suddenly, Alexandria used her strength to push me onto my back, then she straddled my lap and playfully replied, "We will finish this right now." After that, she glanced at my dad and nonchalantly stated, "Mr. Schultz, I will make sure Brady is downstairs and ready to go in a few minutes."

    My dad chuckled at her, before he cheerfully replied, "Thanks, dear," then he left my bedroom, but he didn't close the door.

    Alexandria glanced down at me and smiled, before she leaned down and pressed her lips against mine. Within a few seconds, we were rolling around the bed with our limbs entangled and our lips molded together.

    It felt great to be with my mate in such a way, and I didn't want the amazing moment to ever end, but I didn't have any say in the matter. After a few minutes of passionately kissing, Alexandria pulled her lips away from mine and breathily mumbled, "We better get ready before your dad returns."

    Reluctantly, I climbed off the bed and changed into a pair of silver gym shorts with a white muscle shirt. Meanwhile, Alexandria grabbed some clothes and went to the bathroom.

    When my mate returned, she was wearing a pair of black leggings with a bright, yellow tank-top, and her black hair was pulled into a bun on the back of her head. Her clothes were tight fitting, and I was able to admire her very, curvy body.

    She looked gorgeous as always, and I loved being able to see her neck.  However, that made my wolf want to mark her more than ever before.  I didn't want to do something she wasn't ready for, so I kept my distance until we were both completely dressed, then I grabbed her hand and walked down to the kitchen.

    My mum cooked us a nice breakfast, so we were able to get out bellies full, before we headed to the training grounds with my dad.  Alexandria was so excited to go with us, and I was happy to have her there. I couldn't wait to show my mate how strong I was, and I wanted to show her all of the different battle techniques I had learned over the past few years.
