Alpha Kai
Alaska leaves me alone after I mark her and take her as my mate. I feel strange. I have never felt this way before. I feel so, and I do not know how to describe the feelings I feel for her. I knew I wanted to fuck her, and something was pulling me to take her as my mate, but what now? Is this the life I want?
She has to tell Beta Finn that she found her mate, and I will give her the privacy and time to do that, but until he returns, we can hide that we are mates, just for now. What the hell am I thinking? I am the Alpha of this damn pack. Beta Finn will bend his knee to me and allow Alaska to be mine without any problems, or I will kill him.
Beta Finn will fall in line, or he will die. Alaska need not fear. In reality, why should she trust me? All she has seen of me is sex and partying. I need to show her that there is another side of me. I have to show her that I do care for her. I want to see what happens next. Will I fall in love with her? Is that what happens when you mate bond?
I get out of the bed and make my way to the front door. I should go back to the packhouse. The she-wolves probably think I have lost my mind. I leap into the air, and when my paws hit the ground, I dig into the earth. I run hard and fast. I think of Alaska. I think about how she tastes and how she feels.
When I get back to the pack house the she wolves are done with their work for the day. Ellie and Christy meet me to check on me. "Hey Alpha, you in the mood for some fun?" Ellie asks.
I am but not with them. I never thought in a million years that would happen. "Wait, he smells different," Kim says as she approaches me.
The other she wolves make their way to me. "You found your mate, Alpha. Good for you," Tori says. She smiles and is actually happy for me.
Veronica looks pissed at the world. "Who the fuck is it?" she demands to know.
I rush toward her. "Watch your tone," I growl at her.
Veronica cowers down, whimpering. "Sorry, Alpha," Veronica says.
I walk toward the house. I should tell them something. I stop just inside the front door. "Ladies, I did meet someone and she is my mate, but I will not be telling anyone anything just yet. It is delicate," I say. Which is more than I should have said but it was too late. Veronica took off mad as hell.
"We are all happy for you," Tori says.
"I am sure you ladies will find other wolves to party with, but for tonight I have to think about how I want to proceed so I need to clear my mind. I will be at my house for the night," I say.
I normally am always ready to party at the pack house but not tonight. Tonight I will go to my house and wait. I will hope that Alaska comes to me. I am burning for her. My body wants her, my wolf wants her and I need her more than she will ever know.
I go inside the pack house and into my office. I need to handle a few things and then I will go home. Maybe someday I will have a home with her. What would happen if she rejected me after I marked her? My pack would kill her, that is what would happen. I cannot let that happen. I do not want to be without her.
Alask POV
I open the door to the home I share with Finn. How could I do this to him? I promised my parents and Beta Finn that I would always be his, and now I have taken a lover. Not only have I taken a lover, but I accepted him as my mate and let him mark me as his MATE!
Now, what will happen to my family? I need to tell my mother before I tell Finn. I rush into the kitchen to find my cell phone. I can never keep up with that damn thing. I rummage through drawers until I see it. Of course, it is dead.
I walk quickly to the bedroom. I know there is a charger by the bed. I plug up the phone and wait a moment for it to finish charging. Finally, I am able to turn it on. My phone ignites with messages from Finn. So many I love you, and I miss you notifications. I am a horrible person.
I scroll to my mother's number and select call. I place the phone to my ear and begin to sob as it rings.
"Alaska," my mother answers the phone.
I am sobbing and having difficulty as she panics on the line. "Alaska," she calls to me again.
"Mom, I met someone, and he is my mate," I say, still crying.
My mother takes a deep breath. "You have to reject him. You know what will happen if you do not give a child to Finn. You have to make this right, and then you can do whatever you want, but we owe the Larringer's a child. So suck it up and marry Finn, give him a baby and then do what you must," my mother says.
I stop crying and pull myself together. "I was not the one that killed Finn's sister. Joseph killed Ariel Larringer, not me. Why do I have to suffer?" I scream at her.
I can hear my mother pacing about and growling. "You will protect your family. No man is worth that," she says.
I take a deep breath. "He is the Alpha. He can protect us," I say.
My mother begins laughing. "No one can protect us from the Larringer family. They will kill us all, including your Alpha. Is that what you want? Do you want us all to suffer because you are selfish?" my mother screams at me.
I take another deep breath and let out a scream. "I am not the one being selfish, am I? Tell my brother to pop out a kid for the one he murdered and leave me out of this. I no longer have a family!" I scream at her. I close my phone.
My phone immediately begins ringing. It is my father. I turn off the phone and unplug it. There is only one thing for me to do. I should run. I should leave Alpha Kai and Beta Finn behind. I cannot be a pawn for anyone, not my family, not Beta Finn and his fucking family, and definitely not a horny Alpha.
I am unsure where my life will go from here, but I am done with all this. I am done with everyone telling me what to do and how to live my life. I don't believe that it is my fault that my brother murdered Beta Finn's sister. I am over it. I will not be giving birth to a child and marrying a man I do not love just to appease the Larringer family. Fuck them!
I grab a small bag from the bedroom and begin packing a few things in it. Where will I go? I do not want the life of a rogue. Maybe I should go to Alpha and tell him what happened? Perhaps he could help me. I have to tell him everything, and then I have to tell Finn that I will not marry him.
I stop packing and go to the front door. I open the door intending to rush to and tell Alpha everything, but I hear something coming from the side of the porch. There is no way the Larringers know already. My mother called them, and they sent their wolves to set me straight. I close the door slowly and lock the door.
Someone begins banging on the door. "Alaska, my dear, we need to talk," I hear a voice growling through the door.
I cannot do this right now. I need to get to Alpha Kai. If he is my mate, my true mate, then he will know that I am in distress and come to help me. I begin to cry. I have to calm myself, but I cannot. I cannot calm down. I need help, and I need Kai to help me. If Beta Finn truly loved me, he would never allow this. If Kai comes to help me, then I will know he is my mate.
I curl up in the corner of the room. I make myself into a ball, not that it will protect me from the Larringer Wolves. Growling, Loud Growling is coming from outside.
The Larringer wolves burst into the cabin. "Where is the little whore?" one of the wolves growls. I look up to see the wolves in my bedroom.
"We are here to teach you obedience, Alaska," the wolf growls at me.
I scream as the wolves come toward me.
"No, No, No, stay away from me," I cry out.
"ALASKA!" Alpha Kai growls. He is coming to help me.
"HELP ME!" I scream as the Larringer Wolves close in on me.
