POV Rasheed:

I can’t sleep at all; I keep smelling vanilla cupcakes and I honestly think I am losing my mind. I don’t know if it is from being at the bakery with Gianna or what, but the smell followed me back to my room.

“Trig…. Trig, you awake?” I mind link Trigger.

“Yeah man, I’m a little preoccupied with a she wolf at the moment, can it wait?” Trigger links back.

“It can wait enjoy your evening” I say and close off the mind link.

Man, what am I going to do, I have feelings for a she wolf who hasn’t even shifted. An annoying she wolf back home that I promised I would make my Queen Luna and, I can’t get the smell of them damn cupcakes Gianna makes out of my nose. I am straight up going through it right now. My head is so muddled, I need a drink and a dessert. I get out the bed and go to the bar to pour myself a drink.

“Lucas please don’t leave me! Please stay open your eyes Lucas PLEASE.”

I hear screaming and it sounds like Gianna, I rush into her room and find her thrashing on the bed.

“Gianna, Gianna are you ok, are you awake? Gianna?” I yell.

I rush over to her and pull her to my chest and rub my hand on her face. Trying anything to wake her up from the nightmare she is having.

“Hey, beautiful wake up, it’s just a bad dream. Wake up Gianna.”

I say while caressing her beautiful face. She opens her eyes, and they are filled with tears, they come cascading down her cheeks. She is startled and pushes me kind of hard to the point where I’m falling onto the bed.

“I’m sorry your majesty, I’m very sorry for pushing you. What are you doing in Onyx’s room, did you need something?” She asks.

I am flabbergasted, she rolls off the bed and puts on a robe, wiping her eyes in the process.

“You were screaming, and I came in to see if you were okay. You were not responding to me, and I had to come and wake you up. I apologize for scaring you, you just you scared me with how scared you were in your dream is everything ok?” I ask her.

She looks down and turns away from me.

“There’s no reason to be ashamed. We all have bad dreams.” I state.

“It’s not a bad dream it’s a Deja reve. I’ve had it since my best friend was killed in front of me a few years ago. I haven’t had one in a while. I’m sorry to have woken you. I do appreciate you waking me up and stopping it.” She says with glistening eyes again.

“You want to talk about it? Maybe talking about it will ease your mind and you can get back to sleep. I can stay with you until you fall back asleep, and leave the door open just in case you have another dream. You didn’t wake me by the way I couldn’t sleep and was going to have a drink, when I heard you screaming.” I say.

“Maybe talking about it with someone will be good, but you don’t have to stay or leave the door open. I am sure people will be in and out of this room when the morning comes. You know everyone wants to see the birthday girl. Maybe you can tell me why you are up so late, and you couldn’t sleep, not that my screaming helped with the insomnia” She lightly chuckles.

“Deal, want a drink?” I ask.

“Oh, the King is going to make me a drink? I most definitely would like one.” Gianna smirks.

“Calm down, I know how to do things for myself. I am not helpless Miss Gianna. Besides its only pouring Hennessy into a cup.” I laugh.

“Can you get me a chilled glass? I love when it’s extra cold.” She asks.

“You have chilled glasses in here? What kind of liquor connoisseur are you?” I joke.

After making us some drinks we headed to the couch in her room, she decided to talk in there so we wouldn’t wake up Onyx. She sits down and sighs, she looks as if the weight of the world is on her shoulders.

“As you may have already heard a few years ago we had a really bad rogue attack killing a few warriors and the Beta’s son. What wasn’t in the reports was that he and I were dating. Only my current Beta, Gamma, my brother, and a few of his dumbass friends knew. I was hoping we were mates….” I interrupt her with a low growl.

“Sorry. Please continue” I say.

“He passed away in my arms, in the club house and ever since that night I couldn’t bring myself back there. My dad offered to demolish it, but I just couldn’t, that was my childhood in that house. I knew it would bring joy to my siblings and generations to come, I just cannot step a foot back in there. It’s too hard.” She says.

She wipes away a few tears that escaped her eyes. I’m not sure what I feel right now. I am mad that she has another man in her heart but at the same time I am sad that she lost that love. I want nothing but to hold her in my arms and take away all her pain. She sighs and moves back slightly on the couch.

“Anyway, enough about me, what’s keeping you up late at night?” She asks.

I don’t want to tell her that I am falling for her and that I don’t want to take Octavia as my chosen mate. How can I admit to her that she is the most beautiful she wolf I have ever seen, and I want to take her as my chosen mate. As much as it kills me, I want her to find her mate. She has been through enough in her lifetime, I just want her to be happy.

“Oh, it’s nothing, you know just thinking about all the meetings and boring King stuff I have to deal with once I head back home. I don’t want to bore you to death.” I chuckle.

“It’s not going to bore me to death, maybe to sleep, but not death. I don’t mind hearing what is going on in the world of the King. Maybe we can bounce some ideas off each other.” She says.

This woman does not cease to amaze me, here I am making up lies about some boring meetings keeping me awake and she wants to hear about them. I start telling her about some meetings I have in a few days, and she tells me about her approach to them. It was amazing, Octavia never would of gave her input on my meetings, not that I would ask, but Gianna she dove right in and helped me actually. She is going to be a phenomenal Alpha, and a great mate to someone. I glanced down at my watch, and it is 3am.

“Well, it’s getting pretty late, and you have an eventful day today. I don’t want you to be tired because you spent the night talking to me about boring stuff.” I say.

“It’s not a problem, I enjoyed our conversation tonight, thank you for listening. It’s really hard to talk to anyone about Lucas, no one mentions his name anymore.” She says sadly.

“It will be okay, now hurry off to bed…… Oh, and Gianna….” “Yes?” She says.

“Happy Birthday”

She blushes bright red, stands and heads towards her son’s room.
