Chapter 11: Simon

I started the shower and stripped down. The steam started to roll out of the shower, and I knew it was ready for me. The sensation the water made against my skin was heighted. I felt each drop hit my skin and trickle down my body before it disappeared down the drain. It felt amazing.

The water washed over me, and I grabbed my dick. My thoughts drifted to the Omega with the nice ass and big tits. How her tits bounced when I fucked her hard. I could call her up to my room to take care of this problem. I could fuck her so hard, make her scream my name. I worked my dick to the rhythm that I was fucking her in my head. I felt my orgasm coming on. My dick got harder if that was possible. I continued to work it, even when my cum shot out and hit the shower wall. It came out in threads. More than I have ever done before. I shivered with pleasure. My boner relaxed a little but remained hard.

I dried off and tucked the towel around my waist and dug through my dresser for something comfortable. I slipped on some basketball shorts and a shirt. I abandoned the wet towel in the closet and made my way downstairs. I heard murmuring in the living room that sat to the left of the base of the stairs.

I walked through the eves into the living room, Jared and Greta were sitting on the sofa. Greta had her legs up and she leaned against Jared, he had his arm around her. They talked about the future. Children. Where they would live. It was a normal conversation that people in a relationship would have. My heart dropped. Until now, I didn’t realize how much I wanted what they had. I always liked the idea of a mate, but I enjoyed playing the field. I never really was bothered by not having a mate, only when the other Alphas would visit for meetings and made it a point of conversation.

Now, I wanted what they had more than I could express. I wanted it so bad that it hurt. From here on out, I wasn’t going to live the bachelor lifestyle. I was going to wait for my mate. This was a big step for me. I never felt like this before.

“Ahem!”

“Si, you’re here. Doc hasn’t arrived yet, come have a seat.” Jared said, he motioned to the open seats available on the sofa.

“Thanks.” I made my way to the sofa and continued to stare at them. They were so happy.

“What’s wrong? You feeling alright?” Greta said concerned. Even though she was more of a tomboy than the other she-wolves, she still had a sensitive side.

“I’m fine. Just thinking.”

“Don’t hurt yourself.”

“There’s that famous wit we adore.” I shot back at her.

“But no, seriously, what were you thinking about?” She looked serious.

I took a breath. This would be the first time I would admit it bothered me that I didn’t have a mate. “That I’m very jealous of you and Jared. I want what you have.”

Jared jumped up. “Oh shit, Greta call an ambulance. He must be really sick if he’s looking for a relationship.”

“Ha. Ha. Very funny. I’m being serious. It just hit me when I saw you two sitting on the sofa, talking and just being together. I want that.”

“Oh man, sorry. I know it’s not easy seeing us together. I never really thought it was an issue for you except with the other Alphas and Lunas,” Jared said sitting back down.

“I’m sure your mate is right around the corner. She will show up when you least expect it. That’s how I met this one,” Greta said and poked a finger into Jared’s side.

“It just hit me. I want to wait for my mate. I don’t want to fuck around anymore. I want my match,” I said, putting my face in my hands. “Even if it takes months or years.”

“Oh damn, you’re serious aren’t you. Hanging up that bachelor life. I’m proud of you,” Jared said smiling.

“I guess it does,” I laughed. “I never thought I would be saying those words, not gonna lie I’m a little scared.”

“When it happens is the best thing in the world,” Greta said cheerfully.

“And when you knew you knew, right?” I had to swallow my pride. I was the Alpha. I knew what was to come eventually, but never felt it. I could organize an attack on another pack in a few minutes, that came naturally. But the matter of love was a whole new realm.

“You cannot miss it. Like you get hit by a train of love. When you meet your mate everything else just fades away and it’s you and them and nothing else matters.” Greta waved her hands around emphasizing her words. She leaned back and smiled at Jared.

“Yup, that’s how it was for me. I knew I was talking to Tristan while I was strolling his lands, but I cannot tell you what he said after I saw Greta.” He thought for a moment. “I think that was important I should follow up with him on that.” Jared made a mental note.

“I just worry that I could have met her but my being a terminal bachelor and I missed my opportunity.” This moment of honesty was coming out of nowhere. I normally tried to avoid any emotional talk. I was the Alpha, I needed to be seen as strong and not steered by emotions.

“Impossible, when you meet her, you will know. It’s not just an attraction kind of thing, it’s a shift in your whole perspective. Without even talking to this person, your whole world will be focused on them, and you will want to protect them with your life. So, trust me when I say, you have not met her yet. Because you have never looked twice at any female that has come your way. I should know. I’m your best friend.”

“You’re right,” I said. I felt a little hopeful. If my world hasn’t changed yet, then that means I haven’t met her yet. The Yule Ball was coming up, that would be the perfect opportunity to meet new she-wolves and hopefully meet my mate.

“Seriously, you are going to meet her soon! I just feel it! And then we can finally get some more estrogen in this house.” Greta said and shook her head at us. “Sometimes I wonder if you boys even realize half the shit you do. Put the laundry into the basket, don’t just strip and leave it there! Ugh!”

I thought of the towel that was now laying on the floor in my closet. She was right. “That’s why we have maids, I didn’t want to worry about cleaning up after myself or making my bed.”

“You’re an adult and should be able to take care of these things.”

Jared pushed himself further onto the couch, trying to disappear, to make himself invisible so that he wouldn’t be drawn into the argument.

“I’m the Alpha and have more important things to worry about.”

“That’s true, but you should be able to put your dirty laundry into the basket.”

“I can see you are not going to budge on this…” My sentence fell short because there was a knock at the door. No one made a move. “Now everyone don’t go rushing to the door at once. The one who has the medical issue will go get the door.” I stood up and walked to the door.

“I thought you were this new superhero called, Raging Boner.” Jared yelled from the couch. Greta giggled next to him.

“That’s not my superhero name! Just a side effect.” I grabbed the door handle and pulled it open.

“Alpha, I didn’t think you would be getting the door.” Doc said as he looked at me up and down. “I do have to say though you look full of energy. Did you finish the IV?”

“Uhhhh, no. I started feeling really great and decided I didn’t need the rest.”

“Hmmm. Ok, may I come in? I still would like to do an examination. Greta seemed a little concerned which was out of character.”

“Of course. Come on in. We are in the living room.” I escorted Doc to the living room where Jared and Greta were still lounging.

“Hello again.” Doc said to the couple. “Can you please explain what happened? The chaos from earlier seems to have passed.” He set his medical bag on the coffee table and looked at each of us in turn.

“Of course, Doc,” Greta started. “He was lying in bed with his IV in, we were watching a movie. When all of a sudden, Alpha started to lift off of the bed. It was fucking weird.”

“You said lifted off the bed?” Doc grabbed my face in his hand and proceeded to shine a light into my eyes.

“Yes, a good three inches.” Greta lifted her hands to indicate the height I lifted off the bed.

“That’s new,” Doc said to Greta. “Anything else?”

“Yeah, I all of a sudden got this weird surge of energy. Like a network of volts charged through my body. I went to go look into the mirror and I saw this purple volt of energy shoot around my eye. It was crazy.”

Doc looked from me to the others. Straight faced. “I know you are the Alpha, but as a child you loved to pull pranks. Have you all been pulling pranks on any other pack members?” Doc asked, not amused.

“Doc, we aren’t pulling a prank. I swear on my title of Alpha that all of what we are saying is true.”

“It’s true. I saw the whole thing. The only thing I missed was the eye portion, but he did levitate and just jumped out of bed as if he had this huge burst of energy,” Jared agreed with me.

“Hmmm.” Dock said as he stroked his salt and pepper beard. “I do have to say I have never had a case like this. And you are feeling fine now?”

“Yeah, I feel better than fine. I’ve never had so much energy.”

“And earlier today you passed out?”

“Yeah, no energy and passed out.”

“Maybe it was some sort of bug. I will have to do some research. Nothing has an effect of levitation so cannot think of what it may be. I do have your blood from earlier and I will run tests. In the meantime, take it easy for the next few days and if you have any other symptoms let me know.”

“Sounds like a plan doc,” I said.

“We will keep an eye on him.” Jared said as he helped Greta off the sofa.

“Ok, no training for the rest of this week.” Doc said and pointed at me. “Make sure he takes it easy,” he said, pointing to Greta and Jared.

“Yes, sir!” Greta said and saluted him.

Doc didn’t find that amusing. He looked at her straight faced and turned and walked to the door. “Now I know you are young and think you don’t need to listen, but I really do want you to take it easy for a few days.”

“I understand doc,” I said as I grabbed the door.

“Good. Have a good night, Alpha.” He waved and then walked to his car.

“You too.” I closed the door behind him and made my way back to the living room. “Now who wants to see how far I can throw them?”

“Ooo.” Greta said and looked intrigued.

“Seriously?” Jared countered.

“No of course not. Well, kinda. I have all this energy and I want to know how far I can go.”

“No. Absolutely not. Doc said to take it easy, and I am going to follow the doctor’s orders.” Jared waved his hand in front of me in a sign that he dismissed my request.

“I will take it easy. But I’m for fucking sure not missing training tomorrow. It’s a spar day and I want to try this new energy out.”

“If you get hurt don’t blame me. I am against this one hundred percent.”

“Aww come on babe. We will keep an eye on him, if anything happens, we can help.” Greta compromised and then looked at me seriously. “Can I watch?”

I shook my head at her. “If I start to feel weird, I will stop. Wolf’s promise.” I said and held up three fingers.

“If you die, I will never hear the end of it.”

“Can we have your room if you die?” Greta interrupted, Jared turned to her and looked sternly at her. “What? I was kidding.” She said and gave him a smirk.

“Ok, it’s been a long day for all of us and I’m declaring that it is bedtime.” Jared said and pulled Greta toward the door. “Get some sleep Si. I will see you bright and early tomorrow.”

At the staircase, Jared threw Greta over his shoulder and ran up the stairs. She started to scream and slapped his ass.

They were good for each other. Greta had a crazy side that made Jared come out of his shell. He could be so serious, and she made him more playful. I followed them and made it to my room. I laid down and stared up at the ceiling.

I let my mind drift to who my mate would be and what type of person she would be. This new leaf may be difficult, but I know it will be worth it in the end.
