After the kiss, I was pretty much awake, and I sat up while we continued eating and watching the movie. At some point, I became totally invested in the movie. And it was all his fault.

Some couples began to leave even before the movie ended, and finally, around 12 a.m., the movie finally came to a close. When I looked at all the food we brought, we had already cleared the plates—no surprise there. Werewolves are known to be hearty eaters.

We lay on the mat for a while, watching the moon as it shone down on us. I was in his arms, and I have never felt so safe and secured. I was content to be like this forever. No work, no Alpha position—just me and my mate, enjoying the moment.

But like all good things, it must come to an end, and so does this one. I felt a kiss on my forehead, and I smiled, closing my eyes as I savored this feeling between us. "We have to go now, love, or everyone would be wondering where their Alpha went to." He spoke softly into my ears so he wouldn't spook me.

    I was finding it difficult to concentrate on my work, despite the amazing time I had with my mate, but a thought kept plaguing my mind. I had offended my brother greatly, and I needed to apologize before it was too late.I must admit, I was guilty of everything he was accusing me of. I didn’t even think to tell him, even though I knew he would be happy for me. I think deep down in my mind, I was afraid to tell him, because he was yet to get a mate and I didn’t want him to feel bad. Liam only knew of my mate because he was with me when I first met him.With these thoughts plaguing my mind, I could only manage to finish a little portion of my work. The guilt was overwhelming me, and I needed to do something fast.With heavy steps, I made my way upstairs to his room. While I was staying in the Alpha’s quarter, he was in the room above mine. I could remember when I first got to the position and was asked to change rooms. I felt so guilty because I would be leaving him for a better place.

    Vincent and I had gradually begun to get to know each other better. Honestly, Vincent was just the sweetest. No matter how early I wake up, I always wake up to a good morning text. He was a big romantic and had no problem letting everyone know that he was in love.We have been talking regularly now, although we haven't gone on any dates since the last one. But I kept on bumping into him at every stop. He had made it his mission to always see me. Whenever we were at the gym, he would always try to bump shoulders with me and just be around my circle. It was safe to say that he was madly in love with me. and I think I was beginning to love him.Another special charm of his was his habit of sending me the corniest pickup line. It doesn’t matter what time of the day it is; he will always send one, and they are such a mood booster for me. It was on such an occasion that Liam found me. I was in my office, sitting on my desk, and swinging my legs as a child. He had messaged me that he got the

    I sat down beside my dad, feeling safe and secure as I became enveloped by his scent."I don't think it is wise to keep standing there like a soldier, honey. Go sit down beside your mate or on any free sofa. Make yourself comfortable; we wouldn't eat you." My mom said to Vincent as she saw that he was still standing.He nodded and was already heading to the nearest chair before my dad decided to ruin everything. "I don't know about you, but he may just be dinner." Vincent froze momentarily; his foot was left hanging in the air as he was about to take a step forward.It was a struggle to control my laughter when I looked at him. His eyes were darting from left to right, and beads of sweat started forming on his forehead. "Richard." My mom warned just as she chucked a pillow at his head, which he dodged effortlessly, of course. "Don't scare him into running away. He is our daughter's mate.""It is a harmless joke, baby; I mean, it is a very obvious joke. Isn't that right, Vincent?""Uh.

    We stayed with my parents till later in the day. We were pretty much resting in the living room when my family decided that it was going to be "operation embarrass the hell out of Jasmine." They decided to tell my mate every embarrassing thing I had ever done as a teenager, and I have done a lot.I didn’t mind, though. I think they were trying to desensitize him to the fact that even though I am an alpha, I still make mistakes and am not 100% perfect. It will be better if he sees me as a partner and not his superior.We left home that day with filled stomachs and happy faces. Although we were a bit tipsy, we dragged our drunken asses back home, but I didn’t go straight back to my room. We took a decoy and went towards the pack’s lake. I suddenly had an idea to run in our wolf form, and he agreed.We were hand-in-hand as we walked the bushy part. The forest was obviously alive by that time, as evident from the numerous sounds we were hearing. The bugs were not quiet, and neither were t

    We were a panting mess as we came down from our high. That was easily one of the best things I have ever experienced in my life. I was smiling so much that my cheeks were beginning to hurt. "Did you..." I trailed off, hoping he would get what I was trying to say. He was smiling, his pearly whites still visible in the dim light. "You know... did you?" I gestured, hoping he understood what I was saying. I don't know if it was appropriate to ask him that question."Yes Jasmine. I came. You can say it out, you know." I flushed from my roots, ducking my head into his chest. Why was I behaving like a virgin?"Maybe because you are actually one." Smart ass Maya replied, and I rolled my eyes—how convenient that she chose to appear now. I threw her to the bottom of my mind and tried to focus on my mate.I looked down, and I could see that there was a small wet patch on his crotch area. He actually came. I felt a little pride in the fact that I could actually make a man cum without necessarily

    They all gathered in my sitting room, taking up all the space in the apartment. I managed to find a spot beside my aunt Jessi, and I sat there. "So what are your plans for today?" She asked me as I sat down.I shook my head in the negative. I had nothing planned out for the day; I was just going to wait for the ceremony: "Are you ready to be mated?" My mom asked me, the excitement evident in her voice. From the way she was very excited, people will begin to think she was the one to be mated."I think I am. It has been long overdue," although not as long as my parents', or so I heard. Their relationship started out very rocky, and it is still a sore subject to talk about."We came hearing gifts for the newly to be mates." My uncle said before he handled me a little box."Thanks uncle." I kept it on the table, promising to check it out after they had gone.He stood up, towering over us. "I think I will have to take my leave now and leave you all to your girls' talk." He patted my shoul

    With three people dressing me up, I was done in no time. My mom finished applying the setting spray to my face; she wanted the makeup to be as light as possible so it wouldn't be totally different from my natural face. not that I even needed makeup to begin with.They were through with the makeup and hair. My mom had loosened those two braids I usually wear. She must be so happy she got to loosen them, because she had always complained about them, but I couldn't care less; they were practical, easy to braid and loosen, and it saves time. And the last reason was that I really loved it. I can't waste all my time on self-care when I've got work to do.My aunt helped me tie an anklet on my legs; I was to be barefoot for the mating ceremony, so she said it would make my feet look enticing in case he had a foot fetish. I shuddered just thinking about it. He had better not.Finally, we were through with everything, and it was just putting on the dress that remained. It was a strapless, flowi

    The next ceremony would be to bind us together as mates and leaders, and this one was a little gross. The elder presented us with a small knife, and he held a bowl in his hand. We were required to make a small cut with our hands and let the blood drop into the bowl. I took the knife first and made a small incision on my hand, watching as the red liquid dripped into the bowl, and on contact it made a sizzling sound. I passed the knife to Vincent, and he made a small cut, and the red liquid dropped into the bowl. On making contact with my own blood, it started sizzling and bubbling as if it wanted to explode, until finally it stopped. The elder nodded his head, satisfied with the results, and he took the bowl from us. He lifted the bowl up to the moon and started muttering some words, which we couldn't hear. After he was through, he gave me the bowl. "This will serve as a connection between you and the pack. Your blood has mixed together, meaning that you are now one with each othe

    Lucas was able to get me to see reasons why we should merge the pack, and I agree. I had already relayed the information to the pack. At first, they were sceptical about it, not knowing how to behave towards these new intruders. But as words passed around and the date kept drawing near, the excitement began to increase. Everyone had an individual reason for being happy. The nurses and warriors who had been previously sent to the other pack during the exchange were very excited about the news. They could finally see their families without having to get permission to go across the border. While the pack was excited about the possibilities and exposure I would bring. Imagine two powerful packs merging to become one; we would easily become the most powerful and unstoppable pack on the continent, rivaling even the best pack on the continent. I was happy for all those things, but nothing could be compared to the fact that I would get to spend every waking moment with my mate. I was ove

    I blinked my eyes, trying to get used to the bright light that was streaming from the window blind. I successfully opened my eyes after several tries and was greeted by the dull painting of my room.I groaned on the bed, feeling my head alight with pain. Something was different, but I couldn't exactly pinpoint what it was. But everything was just different.Maybe it was the way Lucas' scent was saturated in the room; it literally filled everywhere, like he had been staying here all day.I rolled across the bed till I got to the edge, and I placed my legs gingerly on the floor. I tested their strength to see if they could support me, and they could.I stood up slowly and made my way to the bathroom to relieve myself. I washed my hands after I had done my business. From there, I proceeded to wash my face, and I padded out of the room after I was through, back to my room.Someone, whom I assumed was Lucas, had changed me into shorts and a shirt. Just then, my stomach rumbled, and I looke

    I didn't know where the man had come from, but he had run up to me and collided with me. The impact was forceful enough to make me stumble all across the floor, and I was lucky I did.Because, just then, the man exploded into bits and pieces beside me, spraying us with his innards.Then everything was pure chaos.Someone screamed behind me, and I suspected it was one of the warriors. I could hear someone running beside me. There was a high-pitched noise ringing in my ears, and it continued, the bell refusing to stop.I could feel my body leaving me, and it was like I was floating in midair from all the chaos. The ringing began to gradually subside, and in that state, I realised that there was a girl who was also at risk of exploding."She can't be away from him; she would blow up. She can't be away from him; she would blow up." I kept murmuring the phrase like a broken toy. It was a way to keep me in touch with reality."Alpha, are you okay?" A cute face peered down at me, worry lines

    Under the guidance of Lucas, we were able to safely scale the landmine. And it wasn't until everyone had a good metre passed it and were safe that my breathing finally went back to normal.The fact that someone close to me also had a near-death experience was enough to sober anyone, and we all moved quietly as we walked deeper into the forest.The air was getting stale as we ventured in, and at a point, the hair on my body stood stiff, as if it could tell the danger lurking behind.The sunlight filtered through the towering trees, casting eerie shadows on the forest floor. Everyone was quietly walking forward, and it added to the eerie feeling.I tightened the grip on the hilt of my dagger and took a deep breath, summoning courage. While praying for the goddess to help me.The air grew colder as we ventured further into the heart of the forest, and the sound of nature was slowly fading away, replaced by an unnerving silence.I winced as my shoe got caught on a metal piece, and Lucas t

    We have been running for so long that I have lost count of the hours. The adrenaline that had been fueling me was gradually depleting, and I was already getting tired.But I still continued urging on; it also helped that Lucas was beside me, motivating me in his own way. He was running behind me, and anytime my speed was declining, I would feel his cold nose on my rump pushing me forward.That really helped because we were able to cross the border of a pack, and we were currently in another one. I had already gotten permission from the alphas of the pack we would be passing through; it was considered folly not to do so. I also beseeched them for their help, and they were happy to lend their support in their own way.I looked ahead of me and saw that the sun was glistening on a surface, which was no doubt a body of water. I gathered momentum, my legs suddenly becoming alive and kicking forward as I saw the lake.The sun had been scorching down on us in all its ferocity, barely sparing

    I could see the silhouette of a man fast approaching where we were standing, and I was instantly on high alert. My hands reached back automatically to the back of my jeans, and I removed an object, craftily hiding it behind me. I had hidden weapons all over my body, and I was currently holding a steel blade that had been so well sharpened that it could cut through anything.I had very good throwing skills, coupled with good hand-eye coordination, so should the person pose a threat to me, I would have the blade firmly lodged in his neck before he could move further, so perfectly that he would be unable to breathe freely.The silhoutte was getting closer, and with it was the scent. That sweet, enticing scent that could only belong to one person wafted to where I was, and I was sniffing it like a dog, wanting more from where it came.The man behind the alluring scent came out of the shadow, his sharp features clearly visible in the dark, and I was holding my breath.Just his presence alo

    Maya was urging me to ask my mom about the voice recording because she felt she would have opinions about it. According to her, Kiayra told her that she would know about it. Kiayra was my mother's wolf and had been with her since she shifted.So if there was anyone who would know these things, it was definitely Kiayra. So I listened to her, and I was sending my mother the voice recording. The parents were currently out of town because they went to pay a visit to my aunt.And yeah, my dad is aware of everything that has been going on; he only called to ask me if I was okay and if I ever needed help from him. My dad is a firm believer in letting people do what they want, as long as they are not doing the wrong thing.He said I was the alpha now, and the pack was mine. It was my decision to run it however I wanted to run it, as long as I didn't ruin it. Many people may not agree with that sort of reasoning, but it has helped me grow into a strong, independent woman.But I do believe I am

    I groaned as the loud ringing disrupted my sleep. Will there ever be a day where I get 7 hours of uninterrupted sleep? In another world, it may have been possible, but in this present world, I very much doubt that.I took a deep breath to calm myself before I lost it. "Patience, Jasmine, patience. It may just be important." Maya prodded me on, and I sighed as I picked up the device."Hello." I spoke into the receiver. Beside me, Lucas stirred as he heard my voice, and his eyelashes fluttered as he tried to open them, making me swoon because Lucas was always handsome on a regular day, but he was breathtaking when he was sleepy and a little cute."Alpha, help us." A voice whispered panic on the phone, and immediately I was up, every atom of sleep gone from my eyes. Lucas also stirred beside me and sat upright.I heard that voice; it was the woman's bratty daughter that was missing. "Suzy? Is that you?" Lucas' ears perked up as he heard the name. I had informed him of the missing person,

    The day was still young, and although the sun was still shining its bright light on us, I was drained and stressed out. I have been wrung out to the point that the only thing that could remedy it was quality rest. And that was what I was going to get now.I looked down at our jointed hands as we walked down the path to the pack house. I could feel curious eyes on us, but I could care less. I was happy that we didn't have to keep hiding the fact that we were mates.We had gotten up to the huge double mahogany door that stood tall and unyielding, and I was going to take another step forward when a thought flashed through my mind and I remembered that he wasn't living in this pack and may likely have somewhere to be. "Don't you have somewhere to be?" I asked, gently stroking the hairs at the back of his palm."Uh?" He raised his eyebrows, looking at me all confused."Your pack." I provided. "You can't leave the pack just like that. I am fine now, so you are free to go." It took great pai
