Alpha's Ballet Mate novel Chapter 4

"Here, let me take that for you." Theo said referring to my suit case. I nodded and handed it to him because refusing and alpha was bad. He loaded my suit case into the back of his black Ford Raptor. He walked around and helped me into his truck.

The purr of the engine sounded beautiful. Dad had taught me a few things about cars so I wasn't a complete ditz for my mate. I waved goodbye to my family as the car pulled away. The nerves flooded my every cell. I had to close my eyes and focus on the song on the radio.

Mentally I was choreographing a dance to it. A deep chuckle brought me out of my thoughts. "So, Abigail. I never got to introduce myself. I'm Theo." I nodded to him. "Hello." I whispered to him. "You don't talk much do you?" He said with a laugh.

"No I don't. Kind of just want to stay in the shadows." I said a bit louder. For some reason I was becoming more comfortable with him. "How long have you been a dancer?" Dancing was the best thing of my life. "Since I was four. My mom had signed me up for classes and eventually I fell in love." The smile on his lips was so damn sexy.

"No wonder why you're such a good dancer." Blush creeped onto my face as I turned away. "Thank you." The rest of the ride was spent in comfortable silence. As we pulled up to the pack house the nerves came back. "Welcome to Snow Moon." Theo said.

He pulled my suit case out and helped me out of the car. "I can take that too." He said nodding to my dance bag. He might be my mate but there was no way in hell he was touching this bag. "I've got it." I said in my usual quiet voice. No one was in the house as Theo gave me the tour.

There was a kitchen filled with beautiful appliances with an island with a granite top and bar stools. There was a living room with a soft sofa and a flat screen and probably every movie ever made. The whole house was so beautiful I could barely take it all in. The crown jewel was the library. "Wow." Theo's smile met mine and suddenly I retreated back into my shell.

Half of his closest was empty with just hangers. No doubt he saved that half for his mate. "I'll leave you for a bit to get settled in." All I did was smile and nod. "Thank you." I whispered last minute. He smiled then left. My suit case was placed on the bed and when I opened it I sighed in relief. Why did my mate have to be an alpha?

There was no way that I would get my stuff unpacked unless I played music. My ear phones were in my dance bag and so was my phone. The minuet I pulled it out and plugged in the ear phones I shuffled my music. An instant calm washed over me. Suddenly the doing this simple task wasn't so daunting. Meeting your mate was a big change for anyone. It meant a whole shift to your life.

Back to December by Taylor Swift came on as the first song. Once I opened the suit case the first thing I started hanging up was my long sleeved shirts. Nearly every piece of long sleeved clothing I owned came from a dance store. Even my leggings came from there. I had a bit of OCD when it came to organizing my dance clothes. Not only were they color coordinated but they all had a cover up like thing over them. I made sure though the few leotards I had were all the way in the back. There was no way in hell I would ever live it down if Theo saw them.
