His Mate?

Author: K.Matthews

Setting me down next to a blacked-out SUV, he begins to unbutton his shirt before handing me the garment.

“Put this on.” He instructs.

I did as he asks, if nothing else, because I was cold and naked. The fact it smelt like him was just a bonus.

“Do you know what you are?” His question surprised me. So much so that my hand still as I did the buttons up, allowing just a little too much cleavage to be on display before him. But I was no longer thinking about my modesty. Just the two hazel eyes gazing down at me, willing me to answer his question.

I mull over his question. I didn’t. Honestly, I had no idea what I was. Or how I came to be what I am. But the girl from before had told me. And based off of everything had happened afterwards, there was no reason to disagree with what she had said. So, taking a deep breath, I say; “A werewolf.” The words seem to stick in my throat as I speak them.

“Tonight, it was you first shift?” He asks, his voice had returned to being soft, and I could tell by how he was holding himself, he wasn’t used to having these sort of conversations. Conversations where you have to show compassion. I didn’t respond. I wasn’t sure how to answer a question like that.

The living through it had been a harrowing experience. One that I had no intention of reliving any time soon.

My silence seemed to be enough of a confirmation for him.

“How is that possible? The fact you can scent me means you are eighteen. Werewolves have their first shift when they are sixteen. How could you have gone two whole years without the shift being triggered?”

His question lingered between us.

 “Aren’t you going to say anything?” He snaps, his eyes taking on a luminescent glow for a moment before returning back to their normal brown shade.

“What is it you want me to say exactly?” I snap back, finally the events of the evening catching up with me. “I haven’t got answers to your questions. Do you want me to say, I didn’t even know werewolves existed before tonight, much less that I am one. That I was abandoned as a baby, and I don’t even know with any certainty how old I am, let alone when my birthday is. I have no idea what scenting is, or why that has any sort of relevance to me being what I am. I am half naked, covered in mud, and all I can think about is how good you smell, and that I want to rub myself all over you and revel in it. That I’m hungry like I have never felt before. And so tired, so, so tired. I want a hot shower and to sleep. And I want to forget any of this ever happened. I want to strangle my best friend who made me come out tonight. But most of all, I want to go back to thinking that werewolves were just another bedtime story made to scare children into going to sleep. Is that what you want me to say?” By now I am all but screaming at him. “Well, is it?”

I thought he would be angry. That he would give me a dressing down for having spoken to him so rudely. But instead, he simply gives me the biggest, heart-warming smile I had ever seen.

“You want to rub yourself all over me?” He mocks with a grin.

“That is what you took from everything I just said.” I huff back.

“Oh no, I heard it all. That was just my favourite bit Sienna.” He opened the door of the SUV, my name lingering on his tongue like music to my ears, and I could feel myself swoon once again.

“What kind of name is Alpha?” I snap back to reality.

“Alpha is a title, not my name.” He chuckles at my naivety.

“Oh.” I look at the floor mulling the title over. “So, what is your name?” I ask curiously. Still studying my dirty toes.

“Get in the car and I will tell you.” He states.

Looking between him the cosy interior and over his shoulder towards the orphanage, I try to decide what to do.

“Don’t even think about it. I will catch up with you before you even make it to the traffic lights.” He pre-empted my thoughts. I knew there was no escape. It was fruitless to think there was.

“Fine.” I huff, sliding into the leather passenger seat.

“Put your seatbelt on.” He shuts the door in my face before I could respond.

Moments later, he was sitting next to me and starting the car. The doors audibly click to locked, making sure I knew I had no chance of making a quick getaway tonight.

“Mason.” He replied, tucking a finger under my chin and lifting it gently so I was looking directly at him once again. “Mason Donnelly.” His fingers seemed to fuse themselves to my skin, sending deliciously warm tingles that I could feel all over me. And in that moment a part of me begged to lean forward and capture his perfectly formed lips in a kiss. But I resisted.

“God, what the hell is happening to me.” I gasp as the little sparks set my core alight.

If Mason noticed the effect he was having on me, he was gentlemanly enough not to comment.

“I am your mate Sienna.” He says matter-of-factly letting his hand drop to the gear stick and shifting into the first. “We were made for each other.”

    I had no idea what a mate was. But the moment he said the little word, something within me roared to life.“What’s a mate?” I ask, doing my best to not look directly at the god sitting next to me with his shirt off. I could feel myself swaying forward, like two halves of a magnet. Mason remained still allowing me to come as near to him as I wanted. He made no comment or move to push me away. “As in a friend?”“No,” he chuckles, “As in husband and wife.”I still for a moment, before rocking back as I far as I reasonably could. “Your what now?”“It’s not as bad as it sounds. There is a lot that you need to learn about our kind. I guess it’s something I take for granted. I was brought up in it, so it is the norm for me. But I guess I can understand why your feel a bit shocked by it all.” I couldn’t help but notice the endearing blush that had crept over his neck and cheeks whilst he rambled. “Werewolves are given a mate. The one person that is meant to complete them and make them whole.

    “Ours, hopefully.”The moment he uttered those words, panic rose from my stomach, burning through my oesophagus and into my mouth.Pulling open the door and tumbled out onto the sidewalk and threw up everything that was left in my stomach. And at this point, there wasn’t much left at all. Bright bile burnt my mouth as I tried to take steadying breath and calm my raging mind down.It was too much. All of this was far too much.“I can’t be here.” I mumbled more to myself than anything. But it was loud enough for Mason to have heard it.As if my body was controlling itself, my feet shuffle forward. I had no idea where I was, or even how to get back to the orphanage from here. All I knew was that I needed to get away.Get away from Mason.Get away from the stifling confines of the car.Get away from the nightmare I seemed to be living.My feet moved forward blindly. I barely noticed the direction I was travelling, much less to where.I barely noticed the sound of the car door opening and t

    Mason Being an Alpha to a pack is not the easiest of tasks.It was a position that I had been born for, yes. But it was not the position I wanted.I had always considered myself a lone wolf.And even after years of being pushed by my parents to find my mate… or at the very least, to claim one, I had resisted. I had no plan to shackle myself to another. The freedom of doing as I pleased was far too desirable to ever want that for myself.Had I underestimated the power of the bond?Oh, without a doubt I had.The moment I set eyes on the scared little black wolf; I knew that I was in trouble.

    Sienna It was morning. The sun filtering through the window had broken my sleep. And now I lay in a state of not wanting to open my eyes. But at the same time, knowing that I shouldn’t fall back to sleep.It was like my brain was wading through thick sludge as I did my best to draw myself back into the here and now. The remnants of strange swirling figures and distorted faces of people I had no idea who were had plagued my sleep, and still danced intoxicatingly before my closed eye lids. And now, lying in the soft sheets of my bed, it felt like had been caught up in a whirlwind. My brain semi-registered that I was not where I should be, but it couldn’t quite work out where that was.My body ached. More than it had done since my early years of track and field. I ache din places that I had no idea could ache.

They are probably looking for me right now.”“A boyfriend perhaps?” I couldn’t help but notice the element of bitter jealousy in his words.“What?” I shake off the comments, “No, like friends. Like my carers. I am still legally underage; I need to at least tell them I am safe.

    SiennaI could smell him before anything else.The deep masculine scent that was completely out of place in the heavily fragranced floral haven I found myself.It wasn’t an unpleasant smell by any stretch. In fact, quite the opposite. It was as if my body had become attuned to the scent, and sought it out amongst the perfumed blooms. It was like a craving. When all you wanted was something salty, but the table before you, was laid out with nothing but sweets. Mason had become my something salty. And every part of my being longed to open my eyes and seek him out. To rush into his arms and relish his touch.But I refused to allow myself to cave to the persistent nagging within.And then came the sound of his feet crunching along the stone pathway to where I sat.Listening intently to the rhythmic sound of his feet as he made his way towards me with agonisingly slow strides.Was he walking in slow motion?
