All Chapters of Alpha Asher And The Mate He Never Wanted: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“Signe, let’s go!” My dad hollered from downstairs. “We’re going to be late. Get your ass in gear.” I rushed to throw my unruly hair into an equally unruly messy bun. Giving myself a quick once over in the mirror, I thank the Moon Goddess that I look at least mostly put together for my first day of taking over the training for our pack warriors. I mean, how my hair looks isn’t that big of a deal, right? They already see me everyday on the training grounds as it is. Sweaty. Bruised. Busting my ass to be the best warrior I can be for my pack. “It all matters. Today you need to make a good impression on everyone so they can learn to differentiate you from warrior-in-training to their future Gamma,” my Wolf Aerona reminded me. “Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I’ll just tuck a few of these strays away and we will be set.” I quickly bobby pinned a few strays into place so my hair didn’t look quite so…messy. I could feel Aerona give me the world’s absolute biggest eye roll. “Alright. That’s it

Alpha Asher POV The car ride was longer than I anticipated. Or maybe it’s just the fact that my wolf Thor hates car rides and gets extra annoying and claustrophobic when we have to ride in one for more than about thirty minutes. “No, I think you were right the first time. The ride is definitely longer than either of us expected it to be.” Thor replied not too convincingly. “Yeah, why don’t you just go back to sleep so that I can actually concentrate on the task at hand. I need to focus so that I can convince Alpha Lance to form this alliance with us so that we might stand a chance against Alpha Ian and the Midnight Pack. Alpha Ian has conquered too many packs in the last five years and has gained too much power in doing so. We’re the next pack in his sights and—“ “Brother, we’re here. How do you want to approach this?” My brother asked, pulling me out of my internal conversation with Thor. I glanced up at Alex. “Is there an option other than approaching this head on? W

Signe POV There he was. My mate. What the hell? How did this happen? I broke my gaze from his and looked to Alpha Lance who was just smiling at me. As I looked around the room I saw a mixture of expressions, from shock to anger, concern and even pleased. Such an array of emotions from others when I couldn’t even figure out what the hell was going on or how I felt about it. Mate? No…we must have that wrong. It’s a joke. Right? “It’s definitely not a joke, Signe.” Aerona said, and if we were in wolf form right now, I know she’d be drooling. I looked back at the man who I’d just met. Actually, I haven’t even met yet. He just simply barged into the room for goddess sake and here I was, swooning over him. I mean, he’s not bad to look at. Mate bond or pull aside, I mean, yeah, now I’m almost drooling. His green eyes, that I’d be more than happy to continue to be lost in for the next few hours are the first thing that I noticed. He has gorgeous dark brown hair that’s cut sho

Signe POV I watched him seemingly waltz out of my life through the same exact door he had walked into it. I mean, his brother said they’d be right right back, but here I was standing there at a loss for words. Did I just discover and lose my mate in a matter of two minutes? What did I do wrong? Did he have a lover back home? Was he already mated to another she wolf? I hadn’t heard that he had a chosen mate back at Blood Moon, but that didn’t mean it wasn’t possible. The thought made my heart ache. So many questions with absolutely zero answers. I mean, it can’t just be me. He doesn’t know me. Yet, the only words he has spoken to me were that he didn’t want a mate. “He mentioned that he didn’t want a mate. Maybe he thought he was never going to get one and had moved on from the idea?” Aerona said. “Or he has a chosen mate back at his pack and he’s worried that a fated mate will ruin everything.” I contemplated. “Wait, when in the hell did you become so at peace with this

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
