All Chapters of Mated to the Alpha of the East: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Asher It took longer than I wanted to get my males situated, but I oddly felt a little better when I noticed my mate’s stunning white wolf keeping my conquered beta company where he was now slumped in the passenger seat of the car. A few of the guys had asked about Mari, but no one bothered her with more than a few curious glances after I’d announced that she was mine. I gathered as much information as I was able before returning to Nicolai and Mari, but I was unhappy with what I’d uncovered. Hopefully, Jace would be able to fill in the gaps if he did manage to make it sometime between now and when the rest of my pack arrived over the next twenty-four hours. Ryker had thankfully loaned out some of his warriors to drive my pack across the country, so my males were well rested and ready to begin patrolling the lands, which gave me leeway to spend the evening figuring out what the hell was going on with my friend. “Are you guys r

  Marigold I wasn’t sure if my mate was awake, and I didn’t know whether or not I still had time to go back to sleep before my day began. Irrespective, my churning thoughts told me it was unlikely I would get any more rest, and my nerves only increased as I continued thinking about the daunting days ahead of me. We had the memorial later this morning, and then we were setting off for the unknown. Asher had informed me that there hadn’t been a land-dwelling shifter cross the sea to the dragons’ land before, at least that we were aware of. It only made the rogue dragon who’d attacked our province all the more out of place. Hopefully, we weren’t making a mistake by extending ourselves this far from our homes, but at least my wolf seemed to think we were following the correct path. I shifted restlessly in my soulmate’s arms as I continued pondering the future, but I halted my squirming when his strong hand snaked out,

Asher Mari was a lot slower than I’d anticipated, but I didn’t complain as I reduced my pace to make sure she didn’t overexert herself. I wasn’t about to rush my true mate, and for once, my wolf and I were on the same page. I had a makeshift bag slung across my back that held a few items, but the insignificant mass barely registered after the initial irritation of it faded. We ran across one lone rogue during the hours we’d been rambling through the forest, but it was simple enough to dispose of him before my soulmate was in any danger. Night had rolled in in a hurry, but I knew we were almost to our destination. I could hear the water lapping against the shore in the distance, and the trees had disappeared a while ago. I indicated Mari should stay hidden where she was behind the small structure as I took in the scents of at least two wolf shifters down by the dock. There was a decent size sailboat moored, and I was hoping it

Zacharias I answered the alpha wolf’s question, knowing better than to test the limits of his jealousy at the moment after catching a glimpse of his claiming bite when I’d moved forward to cover the female in my cloak. The look of disdain on the blonde man’s face was laughable, but he couldn’t protest my action with the frigid temperatures. For that reason, I directed my concentration to the girl, needing to know the name of our soulmate, so I rattled out, “What’s your name, beautiful?” It was obvious that she was skittish, but I could see she had relaxed some as she noted I’d sent Maverick and Finn away. I already knew I would have a shitload of questions to answer later, but they would have to wait until afterward. The male opened his mouth, but I watched as the she-wolf rested her hand on his chest, pacifying his ire before I ensnared her within my gaze de novo. I didn’t have to repeat myself, her pretty li

Marigold My eyes were sealed shut, and I was reveling in the tingles still sparking from my lips and every point of contact that Rias had made with my oversensitive body. My wolf was baying with bliss in my head, but shame crept in as Asher’s lithe body pressed in close, filling the spot the other male had only just vacated. I didn’t know what to think about my warring emotions, but Ash’s voice intruded on my internal battle, reassuring, “Hey, gorgeous. Don’t do that. Don’t second guess how you feel. It’s clear that Rias is also yours, and I’m not going to force you to choose. I can’t promise to be perfect, but I will swear to try my best to put aside any lasting jealousy.” Asher’s mature response shocked the shit out of me, something he seemed to be doing an awful lot of here recently, but I didn’t have the energy to think about anything further than sinking into the inviting bed situated a few feet away. My blood still simme
