Alpha Winter

Pitch Black

ROSE POV

She was awake but her eyelids wouldn't open. She could smell the intoxicating smell of sandle wood drift to her nose waking her up completely. She was laying on the sofa and covered in a warm blanket. She could hear voices behind her. Using her wolf hearing she tried to ease drop.
" Mandy thank you so much for stopping by to check on her, I know you hate leaving the hospital.." Said the deep male voice.
My wolf became excited. "Mate" she said. Not wanting to get up she ease dropped more.
" Anything  for you Alpha. " her voice in a suductive manner.
Rose wanted to rip her head off.
" Mandy.....you know how I feel about this. I have just found my mate. You just tended to her." He paused "You should go" his voice was controlled and stern.
Rose was so happy that he defended the mate bond. And even more excited that she now had a mate. She heard the woman walk from the room then heard a door shut. Then she heard his solid foot steps on the floor making their way towards her side of the couch.

"You can open your eyes now. "
She opened her eyes and there stood before her  was a 6'3 bulk of a man. His shoulders we huge and he had a massive tattoo that covered his entire right arm and traveled up to his shoulder and chest. His skin was a dark complexion and his hair was pitch black . His beard covered his chin and upper lip giving him an edge. His whole persona was power and authority. Rose was speechless. His scent over powered her and she was dizzy with attraction to him.

WINTER POV

Winter looked down at her. Even though she was sick with fever and her hair matted and full of dirt. Her piercing bright green eyes were mesmerizing . Her scent was so strong and nearly made him come undone. Smelling of roses and honey. The kind that grew in the meadow in the spring. They stared at each other a moment. As much as Winter wanted his mate he couldn't . She was a rogue and who's to say she wasn't the one who killed his father. His expression went cold.
"What's your name, woman?" He said. Sharply
Rose gulped.
"It's Rose." Her eyes still of Winter.
" names Winter. Now that the formalities are out of the way. Let's get down to what are you running from? And what are you doing on my territory?"
Rose wasn't sure how to answer. She had heard of his father's brutal death to a rouge this past year. How would he take it if he found out she was running from her last pack accused of murder? She had to think of a different excuse as to why she was a rouge. Other wise he would never trust her.
"I was running from a pack of wolves. One of them was willing to take advantage of me. So I ran to your pack because I needed shelter."
His gaze was questioning  her. He didn't believe her. It sounded stupid. Even though he was her mate she knew he wouldn't tolerate false hoods.
He didn't ask anything further. He just looked at her.
"You need a shower and clean clothes. Come to my room and I can help you."
Rose took the blanket off of her and she was cold instantly. They made their way up the stair quietly. Enjoying the fact that he didn't ask any more questions. She knew he was skeptical of her. Though she was his mate she was still a rouge and he didn't trust rouges. 
He turned on the light in his room. The bed was gorgeous made from oak with a shiny glaze on it. His sheets were a deep Crimson cotton. The floor was dark wood with a cream rug on the ground under the bed. He went and turned the bathroom light on and went to the tub and turned on the hot water.
" when your done with your dirty clothes just put them in the hamper and I'll get one of the girls that cleans to get them later, oh let me get you some clothes"
He went to his room and picked out a large black T-shirt. He handed it to Rose who looked at it. She could fit three of her in it. Just imagining him filling out the shirt made her cheeks heat up. Her body began to tingle with awareness of how small the bathroom was with him in it. Biting her lip she put the black shirt on the counter. Feeling the heat waves of the mate call.
The scent Rose was putting off let Winter know she was aroused. He needed to leave. She was too pretty and weak right now.
He closed the door without a sound and she undressed and got in the tub. It had been a while since she took a bath and the hot water warmed her up. Finding some man shampoo she washed her hair and rinsed then got out. She felt like a girl again. She did need a razor soon though. Hairy legs was something she couldn't stand to deal with. She opened the door to the empty room. He must have went down stairs. Rose sat down on the bed the mattress sank to her weight and she looked about the room.
Winter entered and looked at her. She was even more beautiful than before. Her skin was warm and brighter than before. Her eyes popped with awareness and her hair pulled back from her face. Winter could hardly breathe. She stood and he looked down her form. Even with the big shirt on he could tell she was small waisted but still had meat on her bones. Her breasts were round and full and he could tell she had some curves under that shirt. His mouth was watering. He felt like howling like those damn wolves in cartoons he saw when he was a kid. If he didn't have control he'd mark her as his right here on the spot. But he would wait for her when she was ready. He had heard from his father that when his mother and him mated; that the most intimate way for an Alpha to mark his Luna was on a full moon in the middle of  their love making. That's exactly what Winter wanted.
"Alpha, your scent it's making me uncomfortable " she said, biting her lip again.
Winter growled under his breathe.
"So are yours, you smell good"
Rose bowed her head in embarrassment. Winter walked slowly up to her and lifted her head by her chine. He growled. Deep and low.
Then he stormed out of the room slamming the door making the walls shake. Rose didn't know what she did but it had to do with her being a rouge. She laid down on the bed pondering on her next move. She couldn't leave her mate but what should she do if he refused her as his mate? All these questions roamed her head til she gave into exhaustion . She didn't know when Winter came in the room and laid down beside her but when he did she felt warm l, complete peace and oneness more than any other time in her life and she slept like a baby.
