**Valenzano POV:**

After Vintage gave me back control, I sat up all night and looked at our mark on Cleo. Vintage allowed me to see, hear, and feel everything that went on between him and Cleo last night. While playing with her hair and rubbing her stomach, she starts to wake a little. She looks beautiful with her hair spread over my pillows. Her hair is different, it's longer and her beautiful curls are gone. I love her curls.

"Val", I heard her whisper.

"Good morning baby", I said as I kissed her.

"How are you feeling?", I asked.

"My neck feels stiff", she says with a whine.

"That is because you are wearing our mark baby. You are officially all ours", I said with pride. Vintage did a great job.

"I have always been yours even when I didn't know it", she says as she sits up and kisses me.

"That's true", I said with a laugh. She gets up and walks towards the bathroom. I feel her emotions throughout the mate bond.

"Fuck, my hair is a mess", I heard her say through the mind link.

"Your hair looks amazing", I said back through the mind link. She ran out of the bathroom in shock.

"Did we just mind link each other?", she said with excitement looking so cute.

"Yes, we did", I said with a smile. Then I felt her mood change and she started to cry.

"Baby, what's wrong?", I said as I picked her up bridal style and placed her on my lap.

"It's just the last person I mind link was my mother before she was killed", she says as she cries on my chest.

"Baby your human. How were you able to mind link at all?", I asked confused.

She stopped crying and explained to me that her adoptive father marked and mated her mother while pregnant with Cleo. And when she was old enough, she had the ability to mind link. My curiosity consumed me. And I asked her if she had any other werewolf abilities. She said she never got sick, or any broken bones, and she is strong but not as strong as a shifter but stronger than a human.

And when she focuses, she can be very fast. I guess that's how she was able to get away during the attack on her pack. We talked some more. Seems like I have an interesting mate. Her semi-supernatural abilities will make our kids stronger.

"And by the way, my hair is a mess", she said, touching her hair.

"It is perfect. I like your hair natural curls", I said as I twirled my finger around her curls.

"No, Val, I need my hair done so that I won't have to worry about it for at least 3 months", she said, trying to get out of my lap.

"Wait, you can style your hair, so it stays for 3 months?", I asked, shocked I had never heard such a thing.

"Baby, you have a lot to learn about black hair ", she says as she laughs.

"I guess I do since we are going to have two female pups", I said as I kissed her.

"Val, I need to go to the hair salon near my old apartment", she said, and I can tell she is hesitant.

"Absolutely not Cleo. You can't go back there. Out of the question", I say, trying not to lose my shit.

"Val, I wasn't asking. I really need this done", she said.


"Okay, you can go. But I am going with you", I said. There is no way in hell she is going back there by herself.

"Don't you have work to do instead of waiting 4 hours for me?", he asked.

"4 hours! Why the hell will it take 4 hours to get your hair done?", I asked. I never heard of such a thing.

"Because I decided to get passion twists and they take at least 4 hours to do. Again, babe, you have a lot to learn about black hair", she says as she starts to get dressed.

Of course, I had to make her eat. If she had to sit in a salon chair for 4 hours she would have to eat before we left. And I made her agree that I can feed her every hour. Before we went to the salon, she needed to stop buying hair to put on her head. I am extremely lost. How does someone buy hair to put on their hair? The store is wall-to-wall hair products, hair, hair accessories, and a whole bunch of other shit I didn't know girls needed.

While I wait for her to finish shopping for her hair products. I googled the type of hairstyle she wants. And I must admit she will look gorgeous with that style of hair. It will complement her Nubian features. After what seemed like an hour, I paid almost $400 for hair products. We arrived at the hair salon and as always, all eyes were on me it's a shifter thing we are sexy.

"Good morning, ladies", I say as I greet everyone.

"Good morning, Sir.... Cleo, it's good to see you", said a woman who I assume is the owner.

"Holiday it's nice to see you", Cleo said happily.

"And who is this snack you brought with you", she says as she looks at me.

"This is Valenzano. He is my fiancé", Cleo says, holding up her hand so everyone can see her ring.

"Oh, Cleo, I am so happy for you. And you young man. Make sure she is safe and happy", the Holiday woman said to me in a stern voice.

"I will always make her happy and safe. She is the mother of my pu....children", I said with a smile.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you I am having triplets", Cleo says as she rubs her bump.

They sit down and chit-chat, while I google black hair. I wanted to show Cleo that I am trying to learn. And as promised, every hour I brought her something to eat and feed her. All the ladies looked at me with so much lust. I could feel her jealousy through our bond, and I just looked at her with a laugh. As I research, black hair. Then a message from West came through.

West: Bro, where the hell have you been?

Me: I am with Cleo at the hair salon.

West: When will you be home?

Me: I don't know. We have been here for three hours already.

West: lol that's nothing. The longest I have been in a salon with Jazz is eight hours.

Me: Oh, my Goddess, please tell me you are lying. Cleo told me we will be here for four hours, and I am counting down the time.

West: No, I am not lying, and, in the future, any hours she tells you she is going to spend a certain amount of time in a hair salon, the time is estimated...lol.

Me: Is there any reason you are texting me?

West: Yes, mom and dad said they are coming here today. And I need you here when they arrive. Mom gave me an ear full about being mated and not telling her or dad.

Fuck my life, I knew word will get out that West and I had found our mates. But I didn't expect my parents to pop up without an invite. I don't need Cleo to be under any stress and my mother is stressed. She is a wonderful mom, but she always wished Avaya and I became official mates.

I am not sure if she knows our mates are human. Damn it, she will blow her top when she finds out. It's not like my mother has anything against humans, she is just proud that all our pack-Alphas and Lunas, are full-blooded werewolves. All born were wolves not one made.
