After lunch, we retreat to Oliver’s room, the air filled with a comfortable warmth that only comes from being in each other’s presence. I revel in the quiet moments we share, talking and laughing about anything and everything.

“I don’t want to have a party; I want to spend all my time with you,” Oliver complains, drawing me closer in a snug embrace.

“Come on, Olli, be a man now,” I tease, running my fingers through his hair affectionately. “You can’t ditch the party just because you want to spend some alone time with your girlfriend. They wanted to throw it for you because they love you so much.”

“I know, but-” Oliver begins, but I playfully cut him off.

“No ‘buts,’ you are attending the party, and that’s final,” I declare with a smirk, enjoying the playful banter between us.

“You know I love it when you take charge of me,” Oliver murmurs, his gaze intense as he hovers over me.

“Oh yeah?” I challenge him, a mischievous glint in my eyes.

“Oh yeah,” he confirms, sealing his words with a deep kiss that ignites a fiery passion between us. Our embrace grows heated, evolving into a passionate make-out session that soon leads to us making love with each other.

After two rounds, exhaustion catches up with me, and I welcome the opportunity to rest. Oliver watches over me as I drift off to sleep, his gaze filled with tenderness as I surrender to the peaceful embrace of slumber. And as I slip into dreams, unaware of his presence, Oliver joins me in the realm of sleep, his love a comforting presence by my side.

After a few hours of blissful sleep, May came to wake us up at 5 pm, signaling it was time to start getting ready for the party. I stretched, feeling a mix of excitement and grogginess wash over me. Quickly, I gathered my party dress and high heels, grateful that I had packed them beforehand. The last thing I wanted was to be caught unprepared on Oliver’s special day.

“It’s a good thing I brought the party dress with me,” I mused to myself, realizing how awkward it would have been to ask for a dress last minute, especially knowing it was Oliver’s birthday and there might be a celebration planned.

Following May to her room, I found Oliver’s mother waiting for us, surrounded by makeup artists and hairstylists. With a polite greeting, I made my way into the closet to begin getting ready. After a refreshing shower, I changed into my party attire, feeling a surge of anticipation building inside me.

May guided me to sit beside her, instructing the makeup and hair artists to assist me in getting ready for the party.

After some time of getting ready, there was a knock on the door, and to our surprise, Oliver stood there with May’s husband Anthony, Lilly nestled in his arms. They had come to escort us to the party.

“Ready to go, beautiful?” Oliver grinned, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

“Absolutely,” I replied, feeling a surge of happiness at the thought of spending the evening by his side.

As we arrived at the party venue, I realized it wasn’t a grand affair. Oliver had opted for a more intimate gathering, inviting only close friends, relatives, and business partners.

Oliver introduced me proudly as his girlfriend, and I couldn’t help but feel a rush of warmth at his words.

Throughout the evening, we danced, laughed, and enjoyed each other’s company. It was a night filled with joy and love, surrounded by those who mattered most to Oliver.

As the last of the guests bid their farewells, I watched with curiosity as May and Oliver’s parents prepared to leave with Sky.

“You are leaving too? Is everything alright?” I ask, concern lacing my voice.

May turned to me with a reassuring smile. “Oh, everything’s fine, Elena. It’s just a family matter that needs attending to,” she explained.

“Yeah, Sky and I have some business to take care of too,” Anthony added, nodding in agreement.

“Do I?” Sky asked, looking confused, and Anthony hit him on the back of his head and give him a side eyes and then he suddenly started to nodding his head.

“Yeah, I remember now that you tell me. I will grab my things now,” Sky said and goes to his room to grab his bag.

“Take care, Elena,” May said, her smile warm and sincere. “We’ll catch up soon.”

“Yeah, have a safe journey and stay in touch. Let me know if you need anything,” I said with while hugging her.

“You too,” May said, breaking the hug. We bid bye to each other. I walked into oliver room and changed into comfortable clothes and get inside the bed.

“Now I finally have you all for myself,” Oliver declared, his eyes sparkling with mischief as he closed the distance between us, enveloping me in a tight embrace. I couldn’t help but smile, feeling a rush of warmth flood through me at his touch.

As we pulled away slightly, our gazes locked, and I felt a shiver of anticipation run down my spine. Oliver’s eyes lingered on my lips, and before I could react, he leaned in, capturing me in a passionate kiss that left me breathless and wanting more.

Breaking away, our chests heaving with exertion, Oliver cuddled me close, his arms a comforting presence around me. “So, when are you planning to go back to your home?” he asked, his tone playful as he nestled closer.

“Why? Are you not happy to see me here?” I teased, raising an eyebrow in mock indignation. His protests only made me laugh, unable to resist teasing him.

“Aww, so cute,” I chuckled, pinching his cheeks affectionately.

Grinning, I explained the reason for my surprise visit. “I came here for a job interview at McKnight Interview, so I decided to surprise you on your birthday while I’m at it,” I said, unable to contain my excitement.

“So, did you pass the job?” Oliver’s excitement was palpable as he eagerly awaited my response.

“I aced it,” I exclaimed with a wide smile, feeling a rush of pride at my achievement.

“Wow, babe, that’s amazing! I’m so happy for you. That means I can see you more,” Oliver’s joy was contagious, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

“Hold your horses, boy,” I teased gently, knowing his tendency to get ahead of himself. “I still have to finish college first.”

Oliver’s disappointment was evident as he whined, pleading with me to reconsider. “But why? You don’t have to finish college. You don’t have to work; I can take care of you,” he protested, his desperation tugging at my heartstrings.

I couldn’t help but sigh at his persistence. “Oliver, didn’t we discuss this before?” I asked softly, trying to convey my determination to follow through with my plans.

His apology softened my resolve momentarily. “I’m sorry, babe, but I missed you so much. I don’t want you to stay away from me,” he confessed, his expression reflecting his longing.

“I know, love, but it’s only for this year. After that, I’ll be with you. We’ve come this far; you won’t stop me and jeopardize it, will you?” I reasoned, hoping he would understand the importance of my education.

“I will not,” Oliver promised, drawing me closer to him. Despite his reluctance, I knew he would support me in pursuing my dreams, just as I would always support him in his.

“Anyway, Oliver, what is Alpha and Mate? I have heard you and your family members use those terms, but I am not able to understand it,” I asked, snuggling closer to Oliver, seeking warmth and comfort in his embrace.

“Babe, I’ll tell you some other time, right now you should sleep; you’re tired,” Oliver replied softly, his arms wrapped protectively around me.

I complied with his suggestion, but the curiosity gnawed at me, leaving me restless. Why wouldn’t he just tell me? The mystery of it all lingered in my mind as I drifted closer to sleep.

Oliver pulled me close, his comforting presence enveloping me, and his scent soothing my senses. In his arms, I felt safe and loved, the worries of the day melting away.

And soon, the familiar blackness of sleep overcame me, my mind finally finding solace in his embrace.
