Asher POVI can't get enough of her. Her taste. Her smell. The way she feels beneath my hands as I run my them over her body and find a place to hold on to. Her ass. It's like it was made for my hand. Round and firm and the perfect place to grab on to and pull her into me.She squeals when I pull her forward and the sound sends a electric shock through me. I want this she-wolf. More than she will ever know and even more than I can understand. No matter how hard I have tried to fight it these past couple of weeks, I can't stay away from her.When she began the words for her rejection, my heart surged with devastation. I couldn't allow for her to reject me. Not when I want nothing more than to be with her in every way possible and never let go.She wraps her arms around my neck, pulling herself even further into me and deepening our kiss. Still, we aren't close enough. I grab her hair and pull her face even more into mine as I am ravenous. However, she begins to fight against me and pull
Signe POVHe wants me. It's so hard to believe and I can barely grasp it, but it's true. The way he is looking at me now tells me so much in comparison to how he was looking at me earlier today."I said..." He leans forward and runs his tongue along my jawline and to the base of my ear and Aerona starts to purr in response. "Who do you belong to?" He whispers to me again."YOU." My response is instant and without hesitation. His mouth is on mine before I can say or do anything more. Asher bites my lower lip bringing it into his mouth while sucking and nibbling on it. I can't stifle the moan that escapes from my mouth. He pulls away from me and pushes me backwards. I land on the bed with a soft plump as I sink into the comforter laid on top of the mattress.I can't help, as I stare at this alpha wolf, but to feel an ache and a need for him deep within me. The way he is looking back at me is filled with warmth and affection and I've never felt so complete from a look before in all of
“Signe, let’s go!” My dad hollered from downstairs. “We’re going to be late. Get your ass in gear.” I rushed to throw my unruly hair into an equally unruly messy bun. Giving myself a quick once over in the mirror, I thank the Moon Goddess that I look at least mostly put together for my first day of taking over the training for our pack warriors. I mean, how my hair looks isn’t that big of a deal, right? They already see me everyday on the training grounds as it is. Sweaty. Bruised. Busting my ass to be the best warrior I can be for my pack. “It all matters. Today you need to make a good impression on everyone so they can learn to differentiate you from warrior-in-training to their future Gamma,” my Wolf Aerona reminded me. “Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I’ll just tuck a few of these strays away and we will be set.” I quickly bobby pinned a few strays into place so my hair didn’t look quite so…messy. I could feel Aerona give me the world’s absolute biggest eye roll. “Alright. That’s it
I started scanning everybody’s faces trying to gauge their reactions. It’s not like they didn’t know that this day was eventually coming. Hell, even I’m shocked that this day has finally arrived. I continued scanning the warriors when my eyes landed on Alpha Lance and Luna Adrianna. Next to them was Beta Owen and his Mate Nadine and finally, as I continued looking down the line my eyes met those of my two best friends. Our future Alpha, Xander and our future Beta, Lena. Xander and Lena both smiled at me and Xander mouthed the words, “don’t choke” to me while miming with his hands like he was being choked out. What a mature way for our future Alpha to behave. It took everything in me to not give him my best eye roll of the day. Great, now the image of me choking is running through the back of my brain as I try and focus on not making a total and complete ass of myself in front of basically the entire pack. “Welcome everyone! As you know, today is a special day for me as both
Alpha Asher POV The car ride was longer than I anticipated. Or maybe it’s just the fact that my wolf Thor hates car rides and gets extra annoying and claustrophobic when we have to ride in one for more than about thirty minutes. “No, I think you were right the first time. The ride is definitely longer than either of us expected it to be.” Thor replied not too convincingly. “Yeah, why don’t you just go back to sleep so that I can actually concentrate on the task at hand. I need to focus so that I can convince Alpha Lance to form this alliance with us so that we might stand a chance against Alpha Ian and the Midnight Pack. Alpha Ian has conquered too many packs in the last five years and has gained too much power in doing so. We’re the next pack in his sights and—“ “Brother, we’re here. How do you want to approach this?” My brother asked, pulling me out of my internal conversation with Thor. I glanced up at Alex. “Is there an option other than approaching this head on? W
Signe POV We stood around constantly checking the time. Occasionally, I’d peak out of the window in the meeting room to see if a car I didn’t recognize had pulled up. Alpha Lance was on edge. He was trying to hide it, but with all of my training I was able to pick up on a lot that most other wolves without my training would have missed. “How much longer until you think they arrive?” Xander asked for what I felt was the millionth time. Remind me to not go on a long trip with him for fear of hearing the phrase, “are we there yet?” Come out of his mouth just as many times. Although, I can’t say that I blame Xander or anyone for that matter about being nervous for his visit. Alpha Asher isn’t well known for his patience or his kindness. I’ve heard it’s react first and ask questions later in his case. He’s ruthless towards his enemies, which, ok, that one I definitely can get behind. I wanted to know how many of these rumors I had heard were just that. Rumor. Or if there w
Signe POV There he was. My mate. What the hell? How did this happen? I broke my gaze from his and looked to Alpha Lance who was just smiling at me. As I looked around the room I saw a mixture of expressions, from shock to anger, concern and even pleased. Such an array of emotions from others when I couldn’t even figure out what the hell was going on or how I felt about it. Mate? No…we must have that wrong. It’s a joke. Right? “It’s definitely not a joke, Signe.” Aerona said, and if we were in wolf form right now, I know she’d be drooling. I looked back at the man who I’d just met. Actually, I haven’t even met yet. He just simply barged into the room for goddess sake and here I was, swooning over him. I mean, he’s not bad to look at. Mate bond or pull aside, I mean, yeah, now I’m almost drooling. His green eyes, that I’d be more than happy to continue to be lost in for the next few hours are the first thing that I noticed. He has gorgeous dark brown hair that’s cut sho
Asher POVThe look on her face went from curiosity to utter devastation in two seconds flat. Rejection wasn’t easy on a wolf. They felt it down in the very depths of their soul. I felt bad that I had to reject her, but I couldn’t risk any of my enemies, especially Ian, using my mate against me to get what they wanted. “Are you crazy?! We can’t reject our Mate! I refuse to do it, Asher. I will not break her wolf like that. I can already feel her wolf and she’s strong.” Thor was frantic. The panic in his voice was something I had never heard from my generally over-confident wolf. A Mate was a liability. A way for others to get leverage over you and manipulate you to their will. I just couldn’t allow that to happen. My pack was counting on me to keep them safe and in order to do that I needed no distractions. It was obvious in just the first two minutes of meeting my mate that all of my beliefs were true. All my brother did was shake her hand and I couldn’t repress the growl that esc
