Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

Adaline brushed her teeth as the first thing in the morning. Given that she was living with people that could smell anything from miles away the first thing that she always did was brush her teeth.

Her eyes moved to the other hand where the ring was as her right hand was brushing her teeth. 

Actually her eyes always remained in the ring. It had become like a body part but still something that she would never get over with. 

It was passing under the light of the bathroom and she could not help but sigh. 

This was the best feeling in the world. 

She had woken up to an empty bed but before that maybe a few hours ago, Xavier had woken her up as they had fallen asleep in her bedroom. He had to go and work through his entire morning so that he could free some time for her in the evening. 

They were going to go around for a long walk just talking or walking together and have dinner and because of this he had to make sure that his schedule was free. 

And what did she do as his queen?

She very conveniently went back to sleep leaving him to do all of the work. 

Now when she had woken up again she had decided along with him that she was going to spend the day with her aunt and family. 

Remembering last night, Adelene knew that she would have to search for something in particular. That was the only thing that he had and she did not. Now it became very essential for how to fill that missing spot. 

As she exited at the washroom Zara entered with her morning tea. "Good morning," Zara wished just as she entered. " Would you like me to clear everything?"

She was talking about the decorations that Xavier had paid for. Even though Adaline had a thing against flowers, she could not get rid of the decorations so easily even though they contained now dead flowers.

"Do it in the evening when I leave." Flashing Zara a quick smile, Adeline took her cup of tea and left the room only to go downstairs where her aunt was. 

Her aunt was sitting on the couch with her mother-in-law Jenna. 

Tessa had folded her legs on the couch and was having a blanket on her lap but just as she saw Adeline she raised the other end of the blanket beckoning the girl in. 

"How are you?" Tessa cooed at her baby while hugging her close enough to strain her breathing. "You are my little engaged baby!"

"Yes and engaged ladies do not need such smothering," Jenna commented from the couch in front of them. "Do you really need to hug this way? Your niece cannot breathe properly at the moment." 

Ignoring the women completely Teresa looked down at Adaline and murmured, "Can you?"

Adeline was feeling a little strain while breathing but she nodded her head anyway. Her aunt needed this and so did she. Smothering was lovely. 

"See?" By this, it was clear that her aunt was testing her mother-in-law. 

"I do see," Jenna retorted in her calm and ever so taunting voice, "perhaps it would be better to smother your child instead of a grown girl."

Oops. 

That definitely must have burned.

To diffuse the tension and flaunt the wonderful ring that she had in her hand, Adelene pulled out her hands from inside the blanket and showed everyone the glittering ring. 

"Oh my," Jenna gasped. "What a lovely ring! I am assuming that you said yes but in any case if you two ever break up, do keep the ring my dear." 

"Mother," Korr growled, letting his mother be aware of the displeasure he felt regarding those words. He had slipped in somewhere between when Adaline had entered and once she had settled in the blanket. The very cozy blanket.

She was definitely going to steal it away from her aunt. 

"What?" Jenna innocently shrugged. "You have to agree that it is a wonderful ring. Imagine if she has to give it back." 

Then she looked back at Adaline before giving her a wink, "I'm very happy for you, darling. I offer you my congratulations and blessings for eternity with him." 

Teresa on the other hand once again caught Adelene in a hug and this time kissed her cheek with the loud smooch. 

"It did not throw you off the track, did it?" Tessa whispered to her and had a concerning expression on her face. "I did not want to put any kind of pressure on you while he proposed that I was not allowed to say anything," she looked at Jenna and then at her mate before returning to Adaline, "courtesy of these two who kept me out of the house." 

Adeline shook her head softly, "No.." she whispered as she looked at the ring on her finger, "I loved it. Thank you for allowing it." 

Had it not been for Tessa, Adaline was not sure how far along she could have come in this. 

Sometimes it was not the constant support and words of someone, but the feeling that someone was silently standing behind her ready to catch her when she fell. 

Her aunt did not reply immediately, making Adaline look up only to find her staring at her uncle. 

About that, she would also have to ask her about what was up with all of this. Something had definitely changed in between her and her uncle. 

"Yo," Adeline bumped her shoulder with her, "what is it?" 

"Nothing," Tessa looked away from him and at her baby. "Are you sure you want to be pressured to do anything? We can wait for as long as you want."

"No," Adelene shook her head with a bright smile on her face making Janna comment,

"You look like a little ball of happiness and I cannot wait to squeeze you. It's like sparkle sparkles everywhere." She threw her arms dramatically everywhere making everyone laugh and her aunt snorted. 

Life was good.
