Life as a Rogue

Chapter 10

Brad POV 

(since i bet you all silent readers wanted to know how he would be thinking...cause i sure as hell would.)

"How long do you think Ash will be like that?" one of the pup's asked Alpha Adam.

"I do not know...all we can hope for is that she wakes up once Her mate James arrives"

Her mate, i thought. She found her mate, and it wasn't me. What the fuck! 

Running a hand through my tousled hair. i thought out. I wonder if she wants her mate.

  "Of course she does you dumb ass!" my wolf Agu yells at me, causing me to flinch from the pain.

"Oh shut up you!" I yell back.

Preparing myself for the next yell i suddenly hear the sound of loud paws hitting the ground followed by the sound of labored breathing.

"He's arrived exceptionally early...." Deacon mumbles, while looking towards the door.

"Let him in" Alpha Adam commands, and suddenly i felt tense.

 Looking around the room, all 11 of us males are on edge. Males only get tense when there is another powerful male near.

He is not even in the room and i can already feel the waves of dominance and power seeping into my pores. This feeling made me feel week. useless, unworthy of what I want.

The old mahogany door groaned as it was opened, to reveal a man that seemed to be in his early to maybe mid twenties.

His entire upper body was shirtless. It showed various tattoos, and scars of war. This man, who was not much older than me in age, seemed to be much older than me in soul. 

He looked around the room, until his eyes fell upon Alpha Adam.

"Ah, exceptionally early indeed. Welcome to the Dark Shadows pack. I am afraid we did not meet in terms of war" Alpha Adam said chuckling at the end.

the man cracked a small smile as he walked through the young pups and towards Alpha Adam, where they both met and shook hands. each tightening the grasp on each others hand. As if testing each other's strength, and limits.

"Ha, good one Alpha Reed, but yes I have arrived exceptionally early for my mate. As you can see I'm drenched in sweat from pushing myself and my warriors." then the man chuckled as he whispered under his breath something along the lines 'sumo wrestlers'.

 Then it all clicked and Realization hit me like a ton of bricks. This is Ash's mate. As in the guy that I'm challenging for Ash.

"well shit" i grumbled instantly catching the attention of both Alpha's.

"What was that?" Both alpha asked in unison causing me to snicker.

This was the moment where i either fight or flight. I thought carefully. Should i announce my challenge to this Alpha, or....no I will.

"You are the mate of Ash right?" I asked already knowing the answer to my question.

"You shouldn't ask questions you already know the answer to Pup" The Alpha male growled.

His growl made me want to tuck tail and run. But i was a warrior, and as a warrior i had to fight what is mine.

"She's mine!" i snarled out to him, and instantly lunged to him. 

Body shifted to wolf in a matter of seconds, and landed on top of him, claws digging into the tuff skin and meat of his chest.

His face morphed from anger to Anger and pain. My wolf lunged for the kill shot. His neck was exposed and at lightning speed our jaw clamped down on shut.

Sweet thick blood oozed into my mouth and down his neck, as he struggled underneath my hold.

"He's not worth Ash, he is weak, and he will die." I thought bitterly, and clamped down harder.

Then, before i could tear out his throat and feast on it, something sharp and small pierced my hide at the base of my neck.

It didn't do anything and for a moment i thought i had imagined it. That is until my vision began to fade from blurry to black.

I began to growl and everything around me seemed to be slow. i could no longer taste the Alpha's blood in my mouth, nor smell it. Slowly my strength began to leave me and i was pulled back from the Alpha's throat and pushed to another place, away from it all.

The last thing i saw was a pair of seething Hazel eyes staring at me from afar.

A/N: Long time since i updated....forgive me, above is James, Ash's Mate
