Sweetheart?
Alpha he might be, but around her he felt like an omega. She was full of power! It took all of his alpha strength to maintain eye contact with her. Eye contact with her beautiful golden orbs was divine! Her golden irises were ringed with a bright green. So unusual!
He was holding her hand, his thumb running little circles on the palm of her hand. The back of her hand was heavily furred, the palm of her hand only lightly furred. Her hand had a flat palm like his hand, but the fingernails were claws... very, very, sharp claws!
Do you mean me?
Yes, we werewolves often call our mates by a sweet nickname, and you haven't told me your name yet.
He felt very sad that he didn't know her name.
Samantha
He sighed. A beautiful name! He couldn't take his eyes off of her... until his warriors snickered! Then he was away from her and in front of them. He felt even more powerful when they cowered before him and the rogues fell to theirs knees in terror.
Go put the rogues in the dungeon for now. I'll deal with them later! And whichever guards were distracted from their duty better be waiting for me in front of the pack house! I'll deal with them soon!
His alpha command rolled off of him in waves, pounding into the werewolves in front of him. They were quick to show their necks in submission before running to obey his commands. He snickered himself when one of the rogues didn't move fast enough for his frightened guards and got picked up and thrown over someone's shoulder. He watched them go in satisfaction.
Sweetheart?
His heart leapt! He spun to focus on her with tears of joy threatening to spill from his eyes. She called him SWEETHEART!!!
I don't know your name, you big oaf! What else am I supposed to call you?
He grinned in embarrassment, but somehow he couldn't mind looking foolish with her. She was smiling at him!
Jared, love
Jared Love is a strange name.
No, you are my love, love is another nickname. My name is Jared.
If you give me a different nickname every time you open your mouth I'm going to get confused!
He grinned in embarrassment again.
Anyway, I have to get the pups back. Come with me so I can introduce you to my Queen and her mates.
Her mates? As in plural?
That confused him. Werewolves only had one moon blessed mate provided for them by the Moon Goddess. How did someone have more than one mate?
Lycans are different. The alpha mate provides territory and protection for their queen, the beta mate provides training, the gamma mate provides security for the pups, and the omega mate helps take care of the pups.
She looked at him in amusement that he didn't know these things.
You are my alpha mate. I can sense the territory you have. It seems very nice. But you better find at least a good beta and omega mate for me! Come. I have to tell my mother and queen that I found my mate. And these pups will want to play with their omega daddy.
He followed her. What else could he do? She was his mate and he loved her. He was heartbroken that she expected him to share her with other wolves. His wolf would want to kill another wolf that got close to her! He followed in misery until she grabbed his hand and put it on the basket so he could help carry the pups. She trusted him with the pups!! He looked at her hopefully. She was smiling!!!!
The Moon Goddess doesn't make mistakes. It would have to work out somehow!
*************
I'm not sure my beautiful wolves, what do you think? Can this story work out? Can Jared come to terms with what his mate wants?
I love that he doesn't think twice about what she looks like. He doesn't even think about rejecting her for being different. He loves every different thing about her! He notices the differences and it doesn't change what he thinks about her. I want a mate like that! I can dream of a mate that won't look twice at the fact that I won't look normal because I'm going to lose my hair.
And the Queen is her mother! I bet Jared is feeling very nervous about meeting her parents. I know I would be!
