"Big Bad" Alpha

Mates?

I run effortlessly through the woods. Dodging trees and keeping a steady pace. As I am doing so I stop masking my scent. It would make it easier for my pack to know where I am.

I find a familiar trail and make my way down it, knowing where it leads. The rain has stopped by now but the ground was still moist and it still smelled of fresh rain. I slow my pace as I reach a small creek.

I kneel next to it and run my hand through the water. When a smell hit my nose. It was a strong smell and smelt like pine cones and almonds. I looked around confused. I have never smelt this before.

My wolf stirs inside me begging to be let out. I suppress her and stand up slowly. I am quickly shoved to the ground as someone looms over me. My eyes are shut in pain as I grab the back of my head. "What the fuck" I say as I open my hazel eyes which are greeted with bright blue ones.

The smell now engulfs me and I shiver by our closeness. I look at him confused as he heavily breaths above me. I push him off and stand up quickly. My hand stings in the process that's when I knew. He was my mate.

I look at him still confused as he begins to speak. "Why did you mask you scent?" He asks almost angry. "I could ask you the same thing" he looks annoyed as he steps closer to me. I instinctively step backwards until my back hits a tree.

He leans in close and say "I don't need no pathetic pup like you as my mate" he says hatred dripping off his tongue. I look at him with shock as anger builds inside me. I spit in his face. He falls back alittle looking ten times angrier that he was before.

I step towards him " look I don't give a shit what you think Chase. We don't have to be mates if you don't want it. Just reject me it's that simple." I say trying to keep my strength showing but inside I was burning at my words.

He just turns around with out saying a word and walks away. My heart sinks 'what the actual fuck' I think to myself. He's such a shitty person. Even though I am aware of that he is still my mate and I had a natural attraction towards him.

I head towards the river to have a chance to catch my breath. I ran and I ran hard after he left. I needed to get my mind off things. But what I didn't understand was why he didn't reject me. He could have done it right then and there but he didn't.

He's a coward. If he wouldn't have walked away I would have rejected him. Anger boils inside me again as I reach the river. I dip my feet in as the water was much calmer now. I sit there with my eyes closed.

A rock falls into the water on the other side of the river. I see a boy sitting there looking at me. "Ainsley" he asks curiously. I smile in return. "Hey Theo I thought I told you that it's not safe here"

He shrugs "well you're here so it must not be as dangerous as you say" I just smile at him because he is right. "What's wrong?" Theo says with his head tilts to the side. "Nothing. I just needed some time to myself." He nods and we sit in silence for awhile.

He looks dazed then looks at me. "Sorry Ainsley I have to go my mom is calling for me." We say our goodbyes and head our separate ways.

Zach mind links me and let's me know that we are done training for the day and that there is a party tonight. We had parties often. Since literally 150 of us are young parties were our favorite thing to do on the weekends.

I head back to the pack house and head up to my room. I quickly slip into the shower as I hear music already playing downstairs. I brush my hair and go to my closet. I grab a black mini skirt and a cropped white tank top that hung a few inches off my ribs because my boobs pushed it up. 

I put on heels and head to my friends room. Melissa is putting on earrings as I sit on her bed. SHe looks at me through her mirror. "Aw Ains you look so cute. I absolutely love the heels" she says in a giddy voice. She loves parties and always goes all out. Both before during and after the party. She drinks a lot and I can't even tell you how many people she has slept with after the parties.

She grabs my hand and pulls me out the room and down the stairs. My hair flows behind me as it is mostly dry.

We are now in the kitchen and I take drink after drink so I could forget about what happened today. Zach comes up to me and just smiles as he pours himself a drink. "Letting go tonight I see. It nice to see you with out your guard up!" He states as he turns to me.

I just give him a slight smile considering I didn't want to talk right now. I just wanted to drink.
