I gave him a questioning look but returned my gaze back to them.

"I don't need answers. These packs should learn to maintain their boundaries." I said, glaring at them as the cowered on the floor, shaking and muttering a series of pleas. That got me annoyed, I was never used to people begging me, I hate apologies and hearing it just made me more infuriated that it took Zane stepping forward for my canines not to get locked with their necks.

"You need to calm down Alpha." Zane said thoughtfully as he watched the intruders intently. "Whoever sent them my just want to start a brawl with or or even you of killing their members."

"That's an insane excuse." Matthew scoffed.

"They are insane packs anyways, we don't expect more from them." 

After series of explanations I finally let them go, letting them take along the body of their men that Darmac killd. We soon left the arena and made our way through the forest, I could hear the distant sound of water coming from the stream below the hills. A scent waffled through my nose and my ears perked, I sniffed the air to get any clues but all I could smell was the stream water.

"You know Zane was right, when are you marking Amber, I'm afraid any further delays would be grave." Matthew said beside me and I wondered why he particularly was also advising me on Amber, just a few hours ago I told hin to back off and now he wants me to claim her? Just talk of surprises.

"Hm, she might not be ready yet, she's isn't used to the doings of the pack, I can't let her there when she knew nothing about us and how we operate." I told them, whi was true. She was like a delicately teenager that wasn't supposed to be entangled with the ups and downs of a pack, she was to be treated by the kindest faces, taken care of by a caring man and living a stress free life. But in as much as I could give her all that, she has been what the pack had been waiting for for years and coupled with her identity as an omega, it was big blessing to us and were not going to mess that up by putting sudden responsibilities on her.

"If you say so." Matthew replied with a raise of his hand, a cheeky smile graced his face. The air was chilly and was exactly what powerful wolves like us needed, from my side I could see Zane relaxing and sniffing the air. His harsh and dark countenance dropped.

"You should smile more often Zane maybe you would find a mate. "I told him sternly. I, the Alpha wasn't as stone faced as he was. 

"Well, this stony face has brought lots of goods than the bads." He said, meeting my gaze with defiance.

"Too bad, you need a mate badly Zane. I can sense your wolves agitation when you try controlling your little…monster down there when you are around the females. Don't you think you should give one a shot?" I pressed on, not willing to drop the topic.

He shook his head and played with his steps. "I'll see to it." His response was stiff and brief obvious for me to let him be which I did. We walked further I silence. 

"Why do I smell some females here?" Matthew sniffed the air with his eyes squinted. "It's gone." 

I also made note of that, they were probably members of our pack. The scent was calm and soothing with no evil or killing intent.

"That's enough search for the night. We should head back, our women are waiting on us." Matthew said with a wink. Why was he so complex to read, why was he so eager to go home when he didn't love the woman waited patiently for him.

We soon got the pack after a while and I walked back into the mansion. It was about 2am and I needed to get some sleep for the day, I had lots of plans dor he day and which includes Amber. I passed by her room and heightened my sense of hearing, I could hear her soft snores and the vulnerability in her laying on the bed with no control.of force drew me into the room. It was dark but I made my way across the room to where bed was. The mood shone softly on her petite shape and her innocent face, he eyes were fluttered closed, her hair was scattered and a part of it covered her face which I pulled away.

Bending over, I placed a soft kiss on her lips. She moved her body and a smile formed on my lips. I got in beside her. Raising the covers from her body and covered our bodies together. She leaned into me, her back on my crotch that was hardening with every passing second.

I held her close to me and inhaled her scent, my nose were stuck in her neck and I snoozed off immediately.

"Holy fuck! What in the world!" A voice that seemed to belong to Amber woke me up from my slumber, my eyes fluttered open and I stared at her in amusement. It seemed she turned during the night and she had her face directly on mine. She was looking directly into my eyes, our nose were touching and i subconsciously held her tight.

She must have taken my shock in waking up as a good chance to escape, she pulled out of my hold with force and jumped off the bed like there was fire all around it.

I placed a smirk on my face and stared at her wide eyes. "Good morning Amber." 

"M-morning." She replied with a stutter, her face coloured with light red. She looked at me once again before speding off into the bathroom.

Smiling, I took the sheets of me and hoped out of the room telling Ayra who went in for her morning routine to make sure Amber shows up for breakfast. It has been a while since we had breakfast together and I kinda missed her lips working on the food her little moans of delight when eating. I whistled and went for a change in clothes.
