After a wonderful night's sleep, I woke up feeling fantastic for the first time in so long. I couldnât remember the last good sleep I had. It was good to again wake up in a bed. I wouldnât take that for granted for a very long time.
âGood morning,â my mateâs husky voice greeted me. I looked up at him. His eyes looked tired still, but there was a happiness in them I had not witnessed yet. âDid you sleep well?â
âYes, I did. Did you?â
He nodded, but the huge yawn he gave during the middle of the nod said otherwise.
âWhy donât you sleep more, Carmon, while I get ready?â I leaned up on my elbow to look at him better. He must not have slept. He looked exhausted.
âI think thatâs a great idea, love.â His eyes were already drooping. âOne more thing,â he grabbed my hand before I could completely leave the bed. âPlease call me Cal.â Then he was asleep.
Cal. The Witch had used that name for him back in the woods. I figured it was another name Carmon had, but hadnât had the nerve to ask him, and then I was kidnapped and couldnât ask. It had left my mind since being reunited with him.
I leaned over him and placed a small kiss on his forehead. âGoodnight, Cal.â
When I was done in the bathroom, I came out to find Carmon in the same state Iâd left him. I didnât have the heart to wake him. I remembered the room number my parents were in and called their phone. My father answered and after a quick hello, he put my mom on as I had requested. We made our plans and then I let myself out of my room and walked the short distance to my parentsâ room. There was a happiness to my step I hadnât felt since before I met my mate.
My mom, Adam, and Chris met me outside the room and we were on our way. Jeff was going to keep an eye on Carmon for me until I got back. Dalton and Drew were with my siblings, who were taking the opportunity to sleep.
Outside, the sun shone, and I raised my face to soak as much of it in as I could. Chris laughed at me, and I punched his arm. He pretended that I hurt him, but I knew better. Anyone who was related to my mate wasnât a wimp.
We headed toward the shops Iâd seen last night. I wanted to hit a specific one before my outing with Carmon later. Could I call it a date? Is that what it was? My heartâs rhythm picked up at the thought of going on an official date with Carmon. I almost skipped down the sidewalk with excitement, and Adam laughed at my peppy mood. I knew we were still far from safe, but I decided to leave that worry to the boys today. I was going on a very anticipated date tonight.
When we made it to the shop, I saw it was full of different style clothes and jewelry.
