Chapter Six - First Date
Last Updated:
2022-04-29 23:33:59“First rule is you never change in front of a human, Brayden!
Everyone knows that! We can’t allow humans to discover our existence. It’s too great of a risk and now we have people to worry about. What explanation do you have for that!?!” I snapped staring at the young wolf.
“He was kissing his mate and I couldn’t control myself” he argued.
“That’s no excuse. You put this whole pack in danger!” I yelled.
This was a serious problem because the last thing we need is hunters.
Especially since rogues have been noticed near the borders. It was my job to keep everyone safe and I wasn’t going to fail.
“You don’t understand because you don’t have a mate, and may never have one!!” he yelled staring at me.
My wolf pushed forward at this sign of disrespect, causing me to growl.
“Know your place. I am your Alpha and you will respect me” I hissed showing my canines.
He tried to stay bold but eventually he dropped his head as a sign of submission.
“Sorry Alpha” he mumured.
“You will be running midnight patrols for the next month and are forbidden from leaving the pack grounds” I meted out the punishment for his offence.
“But, my mate! I need to talk to her” he replied.
“You're FORBIDDEN, Brayden! Maybe this will teach you a lesson not to change in front of humans ever again. Now leave my office!” I spat, slamming my hand on my desk.
“Yes Alpha” he whispered dejectedly before leaving.
When the door shut, I went and sat down in my chair. Not up to two minutes later, someone was knocking.
“Come in” I sighed.
"Hey Alpha. I just saw Brayden and he seemed pretty upset. Are you sure you weren’t too hard on him? He is only 19 years old, young and stupid.” Henry spoke coming to stand in front of my desk.
“He may be young, but he isn’t stupid and he must understand the rules. We don’t change in front of humans” I responded.
“Yeah but, it was the mate bond. Sometimes it can cause you to think irrational. I know you don’t understand but..." He started off, and quickly cut himself, realising what he just said. "Shit, I’m sorry Alpha” he mumbled.
“It’s fine. I’ve been dealing with this for a long time” I breathed.
I wasn’t ready to let the pack know about Kelly yet. He was human and fragile so, I didn’t know how he would handle it.
Human mates weren’t uncommon but, an Alpha with a human mate was rare.
Our mate was meant to be a partner and add to our strength, which was hard for humans. Plus I didn’t how they’d react.
“Henry I’m going to need you to keep an eye on the pack. I’m heading into town to meet someone”, I breathed standing up.
“Of course Alpha” he responded nodding his head.
I grabbed my keys and headed out. I was a little excited to be meeting with Kelly today.
He was my mate, the one person I’ve been waiting my entire life for.
The drive into town didn’t take that long. I pulled up to Chili’s and headed inside.
I recognized his scent right away and followed it to one of the booths.
I was smiling when I walked over but, then I noticed he wasn’t alone.
Beside him was some brunette girl and she had her arm wrapped around my mate's shoulder.
The fuck! I cursed beneath my breath.
“Hi” I muttered as I took a seat across from them.
“Hey. Anita this is my friend, Rose. I’m sorry but, she didn’t want to be home alone. I hope it’s okay.” he murmured.
“It’s fine. You guys live together?” I asked.
“No. She’s just at my place more than hers for some reason” he chuckled.
“Because you're my bestfriend and I love spending time with you” Rose spoke, laying her head on his shoulder.
I noticed she had a smirk on her face for me whenever he looked at me, which was a lot of times actually. This action alone tells me that she was anything but a friend to Kelly.
I smirked back because I saw she wanted to play games, but she had no idea who I was; and an Alpha never backs down.
What do you think of Rose showing up on Kelly and Anita’s lunch date?
What do you think is going on?

This date was horrible. I had been looking forward to meeting up with Kelly and learning a little more about him.Though I could have just ran a simple background check at the pack house, but I also wanted to spend time with him.Unfortunately I’ve been here twenty minutes and the only thing I learned was that Rose liked my mate and couldn’t keep her hands to herself.She was constantly touching him and he didn’t seem to mind.I was two minutes away from jumping over this table and ripping her throat out with my teeth but, I had to tame myself no matter how difficult.I usually had amazing control over emotions but, the mate bond had a way of messing with a wolf’s rationality.All your feelings are heightened when it comes to your mate; Jealously, anger and possessiveness all rise to maximum lengths which is why it’s critical to keep your self control.That’s also the reason I won’t allow Brayden to see his mate.He needed to calm down before he did something he’d regret.“Anita, are

*Kelly's POV*“Stop ignoring me Kelly! I said I was sorry already a million times” Rose whined while following me around my apartment as I got ready for work.Ever since that stunt she pulled two days ago on my lunch date with Anita, I haven’t been talking to her. Though that was kind of hard, since she had a key to my apartment.“Rose you need to leave. I have work to attend to” I blasted, putting on my blazer.“I’m not going until you say you forgive me. I’m sorry for ruining your date with that woman” she grumbled.“Hey! That woman has a name!" I yelled. "Her name is Anita and I don’t forgive you. Once again, you were sticking your nose in a place it doesn’t belong. My love life is mine and I don’t need you or my mother messing around in it” I told her.“What love life? You haven’t dated anyone in months!” she sighed.“And that’s my business, not yours. Instead of worrying about me, go and get yourself a boyfriend. That way you can bother him and not me” I frowned, placing my lapto

*Anita's POV*“Please shut that damn thing off. It’s annoying the hell out of me” I groaned as the heart machine continued.“Sorry Alpha but, we need to keep it on” Leila said going over the clip board she had in her hand.After the rogue attack, Henry and David brought me to the pack hospital. I was badly injured and the wolfsbane wasn’t allowing me to heal.But, that wasn’t my only problem. I hated going to the doctor, always have, ever since I was little and learned what shots were.“Are all these really neccessary?” I mumbled as I tried to sit up, but was hit with a harsh pain in my side.“Yes. Until Charlie comes back from his supply run, you’ll have to stay in this bed." Leila chastised. "The wolfsbane was a strong dose, which is why you feel so weak. It’s going to take you a while to recover, even though you're an Alpha” she explained.“Can someone at least bring me the papers from my office so I can continue working?” I questioned.“Ignore her Leila.

*Anita's POV*“Let me get this straight, there is a bounty out on my head?” I asked, looking from my father to Henry.“Yes. The hunters want to wipe out our pack and they’re using rogues to try and do it." My dad started. "Plus, other werewolves are trying to take over this land and that means putting you down”, he explained.“This is crazy. I have people trying to murder me from all sides?” I groaned.“We need to keep you are safe, and that means you can’t leave the pack grounds from now. We have to crank up security too” Henry spoke.“I can’t stay here” I told them.“Anita this is no joke. Twice they’ve tried to kill you in one day. Who’s to say next time they won't actually succeed? Then what?” my dad argued.“I can’t stay here because my mate is out there!" I shouted. "He lives in town and how am I supposed to build up our mate bond when I’m on lockdown?!” I countered furiously.“Your mate, is he human?” Henry asked.“Yes, and we have a date tonight which I cannot cancel on.

“Anita are you sure about this? Your dad said it wasn’t safe. There are people trying to kill you” Caroline said.“I know Caro but, this is my mate I’m talking about. I’ve been too long without him and I refuse to allow some human bitch to best me." I replied. "If she wants him, then she’s going to have to get through me first. For years I’ve been alone and I’m tired. I know that everyone thinks I’m strong and have handled not having a mate. The truth is I’m lonely, Caroline. I hate going to bed by myself. It’s a horrible feeling” I explained.“Anita, I’m so sorry that you have to go through this. You don’t deserve it” she breathed, wrapping me in a hug.“Sometimes I wonder if I’ve angered the Moon Goddess and that’s why it took so long for me to find Kelly” I sighed sitting on my bed.“Don’t think like that. Everything happens for a reason. Maybe she wanted to wait until you were ready” she mumbled.“Maybe. I know that now, I’m ready. More ready than I’ve ever been” I hummed.“Just b

*Kelly's POV*"Are you sure this is okay? I know it’s kind of basic for a first date. We can always reschedule and I promise it’ll be better. More romantic” I spoke as we entered the ice rink.“Stop worrying. This is perfect. The romance comes from who you're with, not what your doing” she spoke, grabbing my hand.She looked so beautiful and I wanted nothing more than to pull her into my arms for another one of our mind blowing kisses.Whether it was because it’s been a while since we saw or it was just an effect she had on me. All I know is I didn’t want to release her lips from mine until I was on my last piece of air.We headed over to the counter and grabbed some skates.Sitting on one of the benches, I helped her lace them up before doing my own.She seemed pretty eager to get onto the ice as I watched her eyes follow some of the people out there already.“Have you ever done this before?” I asked standing up.“Once. There was a lake near my house and one time when it froze over,

*Anita's POV*“So, I’ve told you plenty about me, but I barely know anything about you. What’s with all the secrecy?” Kelly asked grabbing my hand.We had been spending a lot of time together after our first date at the skating rink.Day by day we grew closer and our mate bond stronger.The more I was around him, the harder I was falling.At the moment we were walking through the park where we first kissed.It was night time so, we were the only ones around.“You're not the only one with a strange upbringing, you know?" I started. "I come from a big family that practices unique, umm, customs. You wouldn’t classify us as normal” I breathed.“You guys aren’t satanic worshippers are you? Cause that would be kind of difficult to explain to my parents” he said jokingly, causing me to laugh out loud."No, nothing like that” I mumbled, pushing a piece of hair behind my ear.“Anita listen, normal is boring. Trust me, I’m an accountant for a living. I could use a little strange in my life but,

“You need to calm down Anita. You're scaring some of the pack members and they look up to you for guidance. Plus the blood covering you isn’t really reassuring” my father said as I paced back and forth in the pack hospital.“I can’t worry about that right now. My mate is hurt and there is nothing I can do. I thought they were after me but, they wanted him” I let out.“Someone must have figured out he was your mate which meant they must have been tailing you for a while. They killed the two guards watching you which was what allowed the rogue to even get that close” Henry spoke.“Right now I don’t care much about the rogue. I just want to know if Kelly is okay. I told him to leave so he wouldn’t get hurt, but instead he stayed” I sighed, taking a seat.“He may be human, but that doesn’t mean he can’t feel the mate bond. Probably not as strong as you do but, he’ll still feel protective and he’s a man. It isn’t your fault, Anita” my father told me.“It is my fault. His life was normal be

“Do you want me to go with you this time?” Anita asked as I fixed my tie in the mirror.“You have a meeting with Henry and your father” I muttered.“Not till later this afternoon,” she said.“I can go by myself. I prefer it actually” I replied.“Okay. I just thought this year might be different” she hummed.I sighed before turning around to look at her. She looked beautiful and it made me proud to know she was my mate…“It isn’t. It won’t ever be. You can’t come with me.I’m sorry but, that is how it has to be” I breathed.Anita’s eyes flashed florescent green telling me she was angry at my defiance but, she didn’t say anything else on the subject.“Alright,” she murmured leaving our bedroom.Grabbing my keys, I headed downstairs. I was about to walk out the door when I heard the patter of small feet behind me.Smiling I turned around picked up my son before he ran into my legs.”Daddy!” Joseph giggled.“Good morning.

“Are you happy?” Caroline asked.She decided to take me out to lunch since we haven’t spent much time together.She’s been with Henry and I have the pack and Kelly.We’ve spent time together trying to reconnect and get back what we lost.“I am” I answered playing with my glass of water.“Anita you are my best friend. I’ve known you all my life. What’s wrong?” she hummed.“Kelly and I have been working to move forward.He says he forgives me and I want to believe him.I do but, there is this doubt that I’m going to wake up and he’ll be gone.That he will come to some sort of revelation and leave for good.I wish I could just let it go because I hate feeling this way” I sighed.“What do you mean?” she asked.“He makes me weak and vulnerable. Two things I haven’t felt since I was a child.I’m an Alpha, therefore, I need to be strong and fearless.Other emotions just cloud my judgment. It’s difficult though because Kelly makes me feel everything” I confessed.“Well, you love him, sweethea

“Until we have seen someone’s darkness, we don’t know who they really are.Until we have forgiveness someone’s darkness, we don’t really know what love is”–Making the decision to come back wasn’t easy. It was actually kind one of the hardest choices I’ve ever had to make.I love Anita. I would be lying if I said otherwise. The thought of her death made me physically sick.I couldn’t lose anyone else. I made the decision to try and put what happened in the past.I wanted to move forward and when I pictured my life she was there, even after everything she still was my future.“Are you okay?” Anita asked.I have been back for about two weeks and things were still awkward between us.We barely talked about anything and I mostly stayed to myself.I wasn’t comfortable interacting with the pack members yet so, I mainly stay in the apartment and worked.At the moment we were spending lunch together.Though if someone would have come in they’d probably think were complete strangers to one an

A month. I had bed sentenced to bed rest because the pain was so bad.There wasn’t any medicine strong enough for my Alpha metabolism, which meant I was on my own.My wolf was barely there and I knew it was only a matter of days before she disappeared for good.I wouldn’t be able to survive without her so, I would perish as well.I didn’t regret my decision, even after all this. I did what I had to.I needed to protect my pack. My only regret was how I had hurt Kelly.I should have left him to his life. Bringing him here was a mistake.I had survived 23 years without a mate. I didn’t need to involve him but, I was selfish.The one thing an Alpha couldn’t be.My family and friends were all pressuring me to call Kelly and have him take back the rejection, but I couldn’t.I had no right to barge into his life again and ask that of him.Honestly, part of me was scared. Terrified that he wouldn’t want to take it back, that he’d take pleasure in seeing me wither and die.That my death could

Pain. It had grown more intense with each passing day.I had tried to hide it but, then I reached my breaking point.Waking up from night sweats in body wrenching agony was too much.I needed help whether, I wanted it or not.“Mr.Salvatore we have you hooked up to a small morphine drip.It should make you more comfortable as we wait for the test results to come back” the nurse told me as she fixed the IV in my arm.“Thank you” I mumbled.“Your welcome.Try and get some rest” she sighed before leaving the room.Staring at the ceiling I thought about all the events that led up to this point.Mainly the look on my mothers face when she found me on my sofa crying in agony.I had never seen her so scared. My whole family was on edge worrying about me.Therefore, I had no say in the matter when she decided to call an ambulance and have me taken to the closest hospital.I imagined pulling the needle out of my arm and leaving but,I knew it would only be a matter of time before the physical p

“Alpha we need to get Kelly and bring him back here” Henry said staring at me intently.“No. He doesn’t want me in his life and how can I blame him” I sighed sitting up.Its been a month since Kelly left, since he called me and said that he hated me.A month of hell. The moment the words left his mouth I could feel my wolf start to wither.He may not have formally rejected us but, it was enough.“Yeah well he thought that leaving would keep you safe.That he could walk away and not put you at risk.He needs to know how wrong he was. You don’t have much time” Henry argued.“Enough! Kelly stays where he is. We have no right,….I have no right to drag him back here.Not after everything. It wouldn’t be real” I stated.“I’m sorry Alpha. I didn’t mean to overstep” he muttered bowing his head in obedience.“It’s fine. I know your worried but, there isn’t anything we can do.I brought this on myself” I exhaled laying back against the pillows.The day Kelly left was the first among the days of

I couldn’t focus as I jogged downstairs. Every thought that seemed to pass through my head at the moment was incoherent.I didn’t understand it.The only thing I really knew at that moment was I wanted to get as far away from here as I could.Grabbing my keys from my pocket I walked out the pack house and proceeded across the grounds.I needed to get to my car and drive. Where? I had no damn clue.“Kelly!” I heard someone yell but, I just ignored them and kept going.That was until they ran in front of me and pressed there hands on my shoulders causing me to stop.“I need to leave” I sighed not looking at Henry. I knew what he was to Anita the Alpha.“You shouldn’t, not like this. You can at least try and talk things out” he suggested.“No” I muttered shaking off his hands.“Kelly-” he started but, I quickly cut him off.“I said no! She killed Rose! Anita murder my friend and that’s something I will never forget!So no, I don’t want to fucking talk!” I snapped before storming off.Rea

Weak. It was one word I refused to be associated with.Growing up, I knew I had to be strong, not just physically but, mentally.As an Alpha you had people depend on you for their safety.They looked to you for console and decisions that were in their best interest.I knew the moment, I was told there was a hunter on pack grounds they would have to be taken care of.I couldn’t risk the safety of my people. It was my job to protect them.1 life for the survival of hundreds. This wouldn’t be the first time I killed and surely not the last.“Alpha, we’re ready. Leila has her strapped down ” Henry said.“Okay, let’s get this done” I said standing up from my desk.I lead the way out of my office and over to the dungeons.When I entered the cell to see Rose hooked up and secured to the bed I knew it was something I’d never forget.“Hello Alpha” Leila greeted.“Hi. Are we ready?” I asked glancing to Rose. Her face was one of stone and it just showed her character.She was a woman that wouldn

“Are you sure about this? I mean talking to her alone”Anita asked as we stood outside the entrance to the dungeon where they were keeping Rose.“Yes. I’ll be fine” I told her before placing a kiss on her forehead.She still looked worried but, nodded her head to the guards.They opened the door and let me in. As I descended the stairs I was kind of nervous.Rose was my friend, one of the first ones I ever truly had.Part of me didn’t want to come in here, to see what kind of state she was in but,a bigger part needed answers and to see if she was ok.When I came upon her cell, the first thing I noticed were the iron chains around her ankle that was hooked to the ground.Anita had told me that this was were they usually kept rogue werewolves.It took her a while to notice my presence.“Kelly” she gasped standing up. She went to walk toward the bars but, was stopped by the chain only allowing her so far.“Are you okay?” I asked letting the worry leak through my voice.“I’ve been better
