Alpha Dom (Completed)

Chapter. 40

Dom's POV

I hold her in my arms as she softly purr's in her sleep.

Thinking of her, thinking of us, our future.

How one day she'll carry this packs next leader. My pup. Our child.

One day we'll live in peace and harmony. No anger, no war.

We'll watch our children grow up and teach them responsibility, love, and leadership.

I can see her now. Little stef just as happy and pretty as can be. With her nose in a book but black belt in martial arts.

I grin.

And little Dom. Strong and eager just like his dad.

The day that I give my princess and my son away to their mates I know, will be the hardest trial I will have ever faced.

Just thinking about it brings tears to my eyes.

I know I'm the alpha. I know I'm supposed to be strong for everyone but when it comes down to my other half, my mate, my weaknesses are exposed. Her being my greatest weakness.

I think of how lucky I am. To have her as my mate, my other half. We were all chosen for one another but If things weren't how they were who knows if I would be we're I am now. Happy, in love, at my prime...

In our short time she's brought me so much joy and happiness.

Sometimes I think i might have moved a little too fast but, she always reminds me when I'm wrong.

Learning of each other's greatest fears and what makes us sad has only brought us closer and stronger.

Though I might be 'too' overprotective and have men on watch twenty four seven, I know she can handle anything at anytime. I've trained her myself.

I look down at her.

Hair pulled out of her face and up in a bun. chocolate eyes blanketed by sleep. Lips always pink. Her body covered in a t-shirt of mine, arms and legs wrapped around me.

After telling me her fear of water and all things that live in it I told stef my greatest fear. A fear that I've had since I was a kid. And that's losing my mate.

The thought of losing the one thing that I love the most right now keeps me up at night. Kind of like tonight.

As cliche as it sounds, I don't know what I would do without Stef.

Not just half of me would fall apart, all of me would fall then crash and burn.

Of course there's my family and the pack to fall back on but losing the one you truly love, in our world, is losing yourself.

There's no doubt in my mind that I would die for her. At any given moment. Not because that's what I'm supposed to do but, because I love her.

She stirs and her face settles in a deep frown.

Gently I stroke her cheek.

"I'm here pup."

Lately she's been having bad dreams.

I close my eyes and focus in on the rhythm of her heart beat.

Thump thump. Thump thump. Thump thump. Thump thump. Thump thump.

The pace is quick and loud.

I wonder what's going on in that beautiful head of hers.

She fidgets and whines.

Leaning over I start whispering sweet nothings to draw her attention away from her thoughts.

Minutes later she visibility relaxes then opens her eyes.
