I sighed as I placed the syrup, butter and coffee on the table. I set the hot pancakes on Michaelangelo’s plate and placed a couple on mine on opposite sides
of the table.
I was brought out of my own mind by the warm chocolatey scent of my mate.
“Good morning delicious.”
He winked at
- me.
1 blushed under his gaze and cleared my throat before speaking.
‘The bacon’s done so I’ll bring it here here. Sit down.
I said as I pulled a chair out for him, he smiled at me gratefully and grabbed my hips before I turned towards the stove.
We walked to the table together so I could plate the rest of the bacon,
As I moved to sit, Michaelangelo pulled my chair out for me before going and taking his own seat.

My heart soared and I felt excitement flutter around in my stomach
even for me.

I questioned carefully
He reached across the table and grabbed my hand gently,
There is nothing more that I would want in this life than to be able to call you mine forever, but I will not take that choice away from you. You are so young, and I want you to enjoy it before we make everything official and take the titles of Luna and Alpha.”
