Alpha Niall And His Lost Mate

"Oww Niall! " I screamed in pain as I pulled my head away from him.

The look of terror crossed his features as his eyes darted from me to the comb in his hand.

"Wh-what did I do?" He asked, sounding confused but it was undeniably cute.

"If you haven't noticed, my hair is curly" I retorted in a sarcastic tone and he gave me a 'duh' look. "So, my dear mate, you cannot attack my hair from the roots first. You have to start from the ends and make your way up. Everyone knows that"

"Well I didn't" He mumbled as he pulled me back to him and kissed my forehead. "So I'm sorry"

"It's okay. You were just trying to help and it's my fault that it's so tangled. I hadn't brought a comb to it in five days" I laughed at how lazy I am with my own hair.

It's just like what Victoria said, I had to take care of myself now and she's not here to comb my hair for me. And everyone knows I'm useless with it.

"Yet you still managed to look great throughout all those days" Niall added, making butterflies erupt in my tummy.

He had a tendency to do that often, and I never got sick of it.

"You never fail to make me feel special don't you?"

"Well you are." He replied, placing yet another kiss on my temple as he gently began to untangle my hair like how I showed him.

I liked when he gave me small kisses.

We have yet to kiss on the lips, though that was very unusual for werewolf mates given that it has been a whole week since I got here.

Even though we stayed in the same room, things were very PG. Again, unusual for mates. I guess he didn't want to scare me off by rushing things, and I respected that.

We would go to bed around nine every night, and he would hug me from behind or lay facing each other then talk for hours.

We talked about ourselves mainly, since we were at the stage of getting to know each other; but we would talk about random stuff also like, what if the mirror is actually the right side of the world.

Overall, things were good so far even though he was busy most days with pack work. He would take regular breaks in the day to be with me, but the majority of the time I was alone.

The only friends I had here were his parents and Jared, and since Jared would always be working too, I was mostly alone unless his mom visits.

And I found that I could naturally relate to her since everyone from my previous home was a couple years older than me. So, it was really nice to know that my former relationships with
