"Eat first then we will talk food will get cold,"he said
He watched me eat to the very last bite .lt didn't take me more than five minutes to finish the food on the tray and oh moon goddess it tasted heavenly.At this point l wasn't even embarrassed,that's how hungry l was
"Should l go and get more,"he asked
"No I'm full"l said wiping my mouth with my the back of my hand.He just chuckled making me blush .l was very thankful when he didn't mention my very bad eating habits
"Now that's out of the way ,what's your name,"he asked
"Brielle"
"I'm Maverick, your mate,"he clarified
"Alpha Maverick,"l repeated
"Yes but to you it's just Maverick,"he said with a smile
"What were you doing in the forest at that hour,"he asked
"l got kicked out of my house,"l said avoiding eye contact
"Why?, was your father in debt or something,"he asked
"No ,my mother said she never wanted to see me again and she said l should get out of her house"
"Where was your father when all this was happening"he asked
"He was there but he did nothing,he always listens to his wife and can never oppose her"l sniffed
"What happened that made her so angry "
"Ever since they found out l had no wolf my family hated me and have treated me badly . Yesterday my younger sister lied to my older sister saying that l was trying to seduce her mate of which l would never do that and that made mother angry l guess"l explained
"Where is your family l have to talk to them,"he asked
"And say what,"l asked
"Brielle they cannot do this to you ,one can't help the way they were created and throwing you out was the worst of it ,what if you had been attacked by rogues,"he reasoned
"Are you going to send me back ,"l asked on the verge of tears
"No I'm not going to send you back ,"
"Then why do you want to see my family "l asked
"l just want to talk to them ,that's all "he said
"l don't want to see them ever again "
"ok l will respect that ,l don't know what you've been through so l cannot judge you without facts "
"Thank you,so where will l stay "l asked
"In this room with me ,"he said
"isn't that inappropriate,"l asked
"Your the alpha and I'm just...,"
"Just what, you're my mate so we have to live in the same room,"he said
"l ...l ..l have a request,"l started
"ok what is it ,"he asked
"Can l have my own room while we get to know each other,it's not a good idea to sleep in the same room while doing that "l asked
"ok ,"he agreed easily"but you have to take the room next to mine incase you need anything during the night or you have nightmares "
"ok "l agreed
"l have to introduce everyone tomorrow,"he started.In the meantime you have to meet your servants and meet with the seamstress so she can make you dresses ,is that ok ,"he asked
