Short Stories Collection

Chosen (Part 1/3)

I've read a few mating ritual, ceremony, choosing gathering stories and I think they are an interesting story line so here's my take on one. A short story of course unless you all like it that much I can try and write a full story on it

●●●●●●●●●●●

My parents thought it would be good to go to this gathering. All unmated wolves were going, my father needed me to be the alpha female he knows I can be.

"I don't need a fucking mate to be alpha dad! I'm 23 years old and already taking care of this pack since you've stepped down" I say as I pace back and forth in the office

"Baby girl, you won't be at your full potential without your mate I swear since your mother died you have become harder to reason with" He tells me which makes me chuckle

On that soft note I melt at the heartache I see in his eyes when he mentions my mum. I know he's on his way soon, it always happens. She's been gone three years and I'm surprised he's even lasted this long

"Ok dad I'll go, if I don't like any of the males or females there I'm not choosing any of them and I'm coming home to run the pack by myself"

...

My best friend and I don't have mates. We are fine just the way we are, well I am. My girl Lina has been wanting her mate for a long time now. Our pack thought it would be cool if the council let us do a perfect match list, of course I got all alphas and some betas, my girl got the same. We each got different people of course but knowing that we have that list doesn't make me feel any better about going.

"I think we should dim our wolf abilities a bit, these alphas and betas that are there will seek out the strongest physically and emotionally, we are both that but I want someone to pick me for my personality my beauty... everything else other than for breeding and being a warrior we already were trained to become those" My best friend sneered those last words. She hated knowing her mother trained her to be the perfect breeder and both our fathers trained us to be perfect warriors

"That sounds pretty good hun"

The driver pulls up to the hotel where wolves were filing into. It looked like a pretty big gathering.

"As much as I don't want a mate, what am I going to tell Parker?" I whisper to Lina

"You are going to have to tell the human that you can't be with him anymore and you will have to stop fooling around with those human boys" She whispers back

I met Parker a few months back in a humam club. Lina and I masked our scents and wolf abilities so it seemed we were humans. Parker and I hit it off straight away and we meet up everyday when we're not busy. He's from the town over from mine so the commute isn't long.

"This is why you don't want a mate because you've met someone else and he doesn't come with any drama that is being a wolf" She whispers while we walk around the hotel function room

"Yes it is. I'm alpha but for once it's nice knowing I'm with someone who doesn't know any of that" We sign in "Someone who I can be myself around without the title"

"You feel something for him don't you?" She asks "You feel a connection with him?"

"I feel something for him only a wolf would for their mate I suppose" I tell her when I'm hit by a familiar cologne "Lina" I whimper "Parker"

I turn around to see Parker with me in his sights, walking straight towards me. Like a wolf on a mission to claim or vent his anger. I can see both in his eyes.

"Natalia" He growls my name the way I love to hear when he's inside me. He takes my hand and drags me away

"Oh shit Nat!" Lina yells out. I turn my head to see someone I've accustomed to dealing with drag her away. I smirk in her direction, my beta picking her up bridal style and carrying her off.

"Parker" I say "Parker stop" He growls at me. I can feel my wolf starting to get angry. His wolf is purring towards us. Now that everything is out in the open, our wolves not hidden, I could feel him. Feel everything about him

"Parker stop" I break free from his grip and push him hard until he hits a near by door "Parker talk to me"

"You are mine" He growls. I blink back in shock "And I won't let any other male have you" I smile at his words

"You're not mad I kept being a wolf from you?" I ask

"Are you?" He asks

I pull him close and kiss him with all I have. As I pull away he growls and captures my lips once more.

"You fuck me like a wolf, make love to me like a mate, now I give you the alpha" He whispers

I gasp "What?" The one thing I wanted was an alpha claim me. I'm already an alpha, this will only just complicate things.
