Signe POV

I couldn't believe that he walked by me without even looking at me. It's not as though I hadn't seen him already staring at me just a few moments ago.

I turned my body around as he rushed by me following his quick and powerful strides with my eyes all the way to the table. He stopped in front of Alpha Lance, thrust his hand out and just stood there. Waiting.

I looked over at Alpha Lance to see if he would accept Alpha Asher's extended hand. After what seemed like five minutes, but I know was more like five seconds, Alpha Lance finally extended his own hand grapsing Alpha Asher’s hand firmly. One quick shake and they were off.

"Alright Alpha Asher. Let me introduce you to those who help in advising me and protecting this pack. Here,” he gestured to his right, “is my Beta, Owen." Beta Owen stepped forward and shook hands with Asher.

"Next to him is his daughter and our future Beta, Lena." Lena just nodded her head at the introduction.

"Next we have my son and fu

    I was curious what this alliance would mean as well. “I’m not asking for all or even most of your warriors by any means. I would never want you to leave your own pack in a precarious position against Ian if he were to find out about our alliance and decide to attack you because of it.” Alpha Asher responded. Alpha Lance just nodded, encouraging Alpha Asher to continue. “Our pack houses are three hours apart by car and an hour to an hour and a half by wolf. I’m asking for added patrols along our shared borders to ensure nobody gets through onto Blood Moon or Crescent Moon pack lands undetected. I would do the same, also helping to ensure nobody was able to sneak onto either of our lands. I’d also like to request half a dozen of your best warriors to be added to my border patrol along the borders I share with Midnight Pack. I was also hoping for another hundred or two to be at the ready if needed.” Alpha Asher finished his explanation and continued to look at Alpha Lance expect

    "Wait! What?!" Aerona and I exclaimed out loud. Only, I was the only one that everybody could hear. I snapped my head to look at Alpha Lance. "I'm sorry Alpha Lance, but I don't feel as though the supposed mate bond between Signe and myself is really much of your concern." Alpha Asher growled out.“Supposed mate bond?” Aerona said as if she was questioning Asher’s sanity. Alpha Lance didn't even so much as flinch at Alpha Asher's response. "You're right. It's not. However, it is a concern to Signe and as she is one of my pack members, I do have a right as her Alpha to help her out where I feel necessary. As of this moment, I feel that one of those times is now." Alpha Lance responded in a 'I won't take no for an answer' tone. "I will not be forced to talk with somebody just because you say to, Lance." He spat out. "Asher, you're being unreasonable. Just talk with the damn girl. If the Moon Goddess-" Alex started to say. "Fuck the Moon Goddess. She doesn't run my life. I

  • Alpha Asher And The Mate He Never Wanted   Let's Talk

    Signe POV I was shaking a little, but trying not to show it. As much as I wanted to have this talk, I also didn't want to have this talk at the same time. "All right, do we want to step outside?" I asked Asher. "Signe, the rest of us will vacate the room and leave you two to talk." Alpha Lance said. He then turned to Alex. "Would you care to join us downstairs for lunch? Talk of war has made me completely famished." Alex nodded to Alpha Lance, squeezed Asher on the shoulder and followed behind the rest of my pack members that were in this room on their way out. Lena looked back at me as she was about to exit through the door. With a sad look on her face she mouthed good luck to me and disappeared around the corner. I took a deep breath and turned to Asher. He wasn't even looking at me. Rather, he was looking at his hands as if he had unexpectedly found something interesting there that he had never seen before. Suddenly, he looked up and caught my eyes and I couldn't lo

  • Alpha Asher And The Mate He Never Wanted   The Proposal

    Signe POVI threw him off guard with that one. It was only for a second that I could see it on his face, but it was there. He put his hand up to his face and ran it down the front, giving an exasperated sigh while doing so. I waited to hear his response to my spiel. The longer I stood there, the longer the silence stretched out between us. I shifted my weight back and forth. Was he waiting for me to speak up? Or was he seeing how long I could hold out if he kept silent?News flash Mr. Big Bad Wolf. I can stand here all day and you will be the first one to break the silence.We continued to stand there in silence for another minute or two. “This is ridiculous.” Aerona whined. “Just tell him your proposal. I can feel his wolf and his wolf doesn’t want to reject us.”“Really Aerona? Are you sure?”I didn’t want to get my hopes up too much, but if Aerona and Asher’s wolf were communicating, I knew that was a good sign. So much for not breaking the silence first. Come to think of it,

    Asher POVMom had sounded frantic on the phone, which was unusual for her. As the former Luna of Blood Moon, she's known for her sturdy backbone and her ferocity to protect her pack. To hear her so worked up had me on edge.I walked quickly out into the hall from the meeting room. I remembered Lance offering for Alex to join them for lunch downstairs. I needed to find my brother quickly so that we could make our way back to Blood Moon to assess the situation.My warriors on the eastern border were my strongest warriors being as that was my border that I shared with Midnight Pack. For one of them to have been murdered... I didn't want to think about it yet. I needed to locate Alex so that he and I could shift and make our way back to Blood Moon as quickly as possible. "Alpha Asher!" I heard her cry out behind me as I began my descent down the stairs. I turned to look up at her.Signe stopped in her tracks and stared at me with those unique blue and green eyes. I could see the hesitati

    Signe POVAsher left the room without another word leaving his brother behind. Alex stood up and looked at me. "Are you coming?" He asked with a huge grin on his face.I couldn't help but smile back at him this time. A real smile. I could tell Alex was the trouble maker in the family. I had no doubts about that. I quickly glanced to Alpha Lance who was giving me a little smile himself. I could tell he wanted to speak with me about my talk with Asher earlier. I turned back to Alex. "I need to speak with my Alpha first." I said smiling at him again. I couldn't seem to help it. Alex's smile was extremely infectious. "I understand. Well, you know how to get in touch." Alex gave me a quick little wink and the rest a wave, then dashed out of the dining room after his brother. I turned to look at Lena so I could try and gauge her thoughts on this whole thing and I caught her staring longingly after Alex. I giggled internally at my best friend. It seems as though somebody might have a ne

    Signe POV "Signe, how are you doing? Are you okay?" Dad asked me, already standing up and moving to my side. He enveloped me in a quick hug before taking a step back to look me over. He still had his hands on my arms and was now holding me out at arms length. He was trying to read me by studying my face and body language. "Signe, congrats on finding your mate." Alpha Lance broke the silence in the room. "Thank you Alpha." I said, then turned back to my dad. "I'm fine, Dad. We had a slight misunderstanding to begin with and now... well now he has at least agreed to give our mate bond a chance." I paused waiting for the inevitable question and I didn't have to wait long. "What do you mean he agreed to give the mate bond a chance?" Beta Owen asked. I looked quickly around the room at these three men who have been an intricate part of my life. They're my role models. Those who I look up to the most. I didn't want to let any of them down, but I really didn't want to let my da

  • Alpha Asher And The Mate He Never Wanted   Getting Ready For the Trip

    Signe POV I got to my room and began packing. But couldn’t get my conversation with Asher out of my head. I had two, maybe three months to change Asher’s mind about having a mate. That wasn’t very much time at all if you really thought about it. I wasn’t sure what the best way was to go about it. Should I just show up and hope for the best. That maybe my just being there would be enough for him to see who I am and decide that he does want me. Or would it be best for me to really try and impress him and to go above and beyond anything and everything that is asked of me. Ugh. I ran my hand down the front of my face and flopped myself down onto my bed. Why did something that was supposed to literally be the easiest and happiest experience of my life have to be the exact opposite. I picked my phone up off of my nightstand where I had plugged it in to charge when I first got into my room. It was three fifteen. Just under three hours until I was on my way to Blood Moon. I

    Signe POV Asher smirked back at me. "Is that right?" "Mmmhmm." I let my gaze wander up and down his body in clear admiration. "As good as you look in those clothes, I am sure you look better without them." "Well then. Can't have you just wondering what I look like naked. I suppose it's time to let you make the determination for yourself on how I look best." Asher winks at me and I feel my heart skip a beat. Our back and forth taunting and the constant teasing from him just made me want him more and more. "By all means." I wave my hand out in a gesture letting him know to please continue. Asher takes his clothes off slowly and seductively. Which, I won't lie, I wasn't aware that was something that men could really do. I watch as he strips off his final piece of clothing and he stands there in all of his glory staring at me while I stare back at him. I knew he had a good body, but I didn't realize it was this nice underneath his clothes. His pecks are well defined and his

    Signe POVThe sensation of his teeth biting my neck is almost enough to send me straight over the edge and he hasn't even bit hard enough to actually mark me yet. A low laugh comes from Asher as he pulls away from me. He tongue runs up my neck to my chin and he places a little nibble before peppering kisses across my jaw over to my ear. "What's the matter?" He says in between kisses. "Cat got your tongue?"Each time his lips contact my skin it sends a jolt of electricity coursing throughout my entire body. "Mmmm." Is all I can manage to get out as he continues to ravish me. I should be embarrassed by my lack of speaking ability, but it's clearly not my fault I've lost all of my speaking capabilities in this moment. "Remember that punishment I mentioned earlier?" He whispers into my ear. I nod my head and try not to appear too eager to find out just what my punishment will be."Good." He gives me a little sideways grin that makes my heart skip a fraction of a beat. "You're going to

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

    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 POVI sit down on the bed and face the door watching to see if Asher has decided to follow me yet. After a minute or so I glance at the clock on the nightstand. Four twenty-two. I will give him untill four thirty before I start packing my stuff to leave. Then I will find him and reject him and walk out of that door and his life for forever. 'We really shouldn't do this. Rejecting our mate will do us more harm than good. Maybe it's best if we just create some space between us. You know what they say. Distance makes the heart grow fonder.'She has a point. I don't want to reject him. Not truly. But the way he made me feel earlier in front of Ian. I have never felt more unwanted in my entire life. 'Honestly Aerona, I don't want to do it, but I feel he made it pretty clear where his thoughts lie on the topic before we came here and all this afternoon did was confirm what he has already told us. I thought that I could change his mind. That we could change his mind, but I don't thin

    Signe POVThe car ride back to the pack house is a quiet one, giving me plenty more time to think about what had happened with Asher and Ian. Mainly Ian.He called me Siggy. Only one person has referred to me that way since my arrival. As much as I don't want it to be true, I need to confront Alex about this. I don't want to believe that Alex would do that to Asher. But why else would Ian refer to me as Siggy, when he knows that my name is Signe.We park in front of the pack house and Asher gets out of the car without a word. I open my door before his warrior has the opportunity to do so and move around the car quickly to catch up with Asher."Alpha?" I say quietly, hoping he won't hear me or that he will ignore me and keep walking. I'm losing my resolve for my earlier plans now that my anger is beginning to subside due to my concern about Alex.He stops and turns to face me. "Yes?"There it is again. That emotionless face.

Actually, I am more than fuming. I feel like a bomb ready to explode at any moment and I know that Aerona is ready to shift the moment I say go.I look at Ian who is still smiling at me. Does he ever stop smiling? He's completely insufferable.I take a step toward Ian in my anger. "You! I won't be coming with you. Period. End of story. So get any crazy ass thoughts that it might happen out of your mind, because it's not." I huff at him.He stands there. Smile never wavering. In fact, it's only gotten bigger and now I can humor in his eyes. Does he really think this is funny? I can't look at him anymore or I might just lose all the control I am so desperately holding on to.I turn to Asher. "Alpha Asher," I'm back to formalities now.

    Asher POVIan appears giddy with the information he just revealed. As if he knows he has just opened a can of worms. But how would he know?“That’s interesting I guess. I’ve never met anybody with eyes like mine.” She feigns disinterest and I can’t help but smile internally. She’s smart and knows not to give anything away to Ian, but he’s still smiling at her as if he knows something she doesn’t. Not only that, but the way he is raking his eyes up and down her body, yet again, causes me release a growl deep in my chest. I don’t like the way he is looking at her. Not one bit. If he doesn’t learn to quit eyeballing my mate-‘He doesn’t know she’s your mate, you idiot.’ Thor growls at me. “You’re not even the least bit curious to know about her?” He’s trying to bait her now. “How her family never loved her and left her to die after trying to drown her in a river.”Signe makes a pained noise, but plays it off like her leg got a cramp.

Did he want to challenge me for taking his ear?Did he want to finish the job he started?Did he want to demand that Asher have me killed for attacking him?Too many thoughts, both rational and irrational going through my head and as I feel the car begin to slow down as we near the border I can't keep my heart from racing."Signe, you need to calm down. Your heart is pounding a mile a minute. Get ahold of yourself and we will figure out what it is that he wants and then send him on his way." He's trying to reassure me, but the irritation I can hear lacing his tone does anything but.I nod my head and focus on breathing. Aerona reaches out and I feel a sense of calm wash over me.'Thank you.' I say to her as she continues pacing back and forth in my head, still remaining more calm than I had
