In the two months before Anders takes over as Alpha, he and I, as well as Charles, Calvin’s son and
Anders‘ intended Beta, begin a new schedule of training. Patrick is slowly passing things over to
Anders and while we take the time we have to go away and spend with our mates, most of our time is
spent taking over the duties of the pack. Anders had Lily and I take over morning training, letting us
train together in the afternoons while he and Charles took over afternoon training.
One day, as Anders and I were finishing up our training schedule, we walked toward the kitchen to find
our mates for lunch. When I hear my mate’s snarling voice, I stop to hear what’s going on, pulling
Anders” arm to get him to stop too.
“Ladies. Are you so desperate and petty that you have to sit around the kitchen, talking about the good
old days when you had your 15 minutes of heaven with someone that is no longer avable and will
never be yours? I mean, if it were me, and, of course, it’s not because I’m mated to a Guardian, but if it
were me, I’d be more concerned about who was avable that maybe I could actually have a chance
with, not sitting around like a bunch of old maids talking of the days gone by. And, if the purpose of this
conversation is to make your future Luna ufortable with the fact that her mate slept with someone
other than her, rest assured that she already knows. But that is in the past. No one and nothing will
take Anders away from Calista.”
“Excuse me?” One of the she–wolves that Lily is addressing says.
Original from N?velDrama.Org.
“Yes, you do need to be excused. All of you need to get a life. Get over it. You may have slept with
Anders. Maybe you slept with Clint. That was then, this is now bitches. Those men are off the market.
Go
find your own.”
“And if we don’t?” Another girl stands up. Seriously? These she–wolves need to get a life. Anders and I
haven’t been interested in anyone else in months. And no one will ever be able to turn our heads from
our
mates.
“Not one of you even trains, do you really think I couldn’t take every one of you at once and not even
break a sweat. Don’t embarrass yourselves any more than you already have.” I hear Lily say.
“Lily.” I hear Calista’s soft voice say, just as Anders takes a step forward. I can see the anger on his
face that pack members have been making his mate feel ufortable, but I know my mate has it
under control. I grab his arm again, holding him back.
“Ladies, I understand how difficult it must be for you. You wanted to be Luna, or perhaps you thought
Anders loved you. But that’s not the case. I know any of you would take a chance to spend another
night with my mate, and I can’t me you for wanting that. Anders is an incredible lover. But he is
mine. He will always be mine. It would be better if you recognized that and stop trying to make things in
this pack ufortable with your constant chatter or your time with my mate.” Calista’s voice echoes
down the hall. It’s obvious that as she speaks, Shalies forward more and more.
Anders pulls away again and he and I walk into the kitchen. As if we had nned it, we bothe up
I
behind our mates, wrapping our arms around them.
“Let me be clear.” Anders says, running his nose up Calista’s neck and into her hair. “There is no one
that I will ever want, other than my mate. She is everything to me. Anyone that hurts my mate, will
answer to me.” His heades up and he pins each of the she–wolves with his stare, his Alpha aura
coming out and Zakaiing forward. “I will not tolerate any disrespect to my mate and your future
Luna.”
They all lift their necks in submission and a chorus of ‘Yes, Alphas ring out in the room. He turns
Calistal in his arms and pulls her into a passionate kiss. Anders isn’t one for public disys of affection,
so I know he’s making a point. Maybe the pack hasn’t seen how much he truly loves Calista, and he’s
making sure they see it now. It doesn’t take long before Anders and Calista get lost in the kiss,
forgetting about everything else around them.
When the she–wolves leave, I lean down to my mate’s ear. “That was so hot.”
She turns in my arms. “Which part?” She asks, while nipping at my throat.
“All of it, but I especially like how you reminded them that you’re my mate.”
“Hmmm.” She gets a contemtive look on her face. “Am I your mate? I forget. Maybe I need to be
reminded.” She gives me a seductive look, biting her lower lip.
That’s all the suggestion I need. I reach down, throwing her over my shoulder before taking her to our
room and reminding her for the next couple of hours just who’s mate she is.
Two months after graduation, Lily and I stand on stage beside Anders and Calista as they swear their
oaths and fealty to the pack as Alpha and Luna. Charles and his mate, Donna, are then sworn in as the
pack Betas. Afterward, Lily and I are sworn in as Anders‘ and Calista’s Guardians. We had all
discussed it and since my mate was a Guardian, and Anders already had me as his Guardian, it was
decided that Lily would be Calista’s Guardian. Lily was thrilled and I think Calista was too. Honestly, it
makes everything much easier for all of us. Any time Anders has an Alpha event, he can feel
comfortable bringing Calista, knowing Lily will be there to protect her and that keeps me and Lily
together more often.
It’s a beautiful evening full of dancing and celebrating. I know other males in our pack our jealous and
watch my mate with hopeful eyes. But I know she’s all mine. I make a point to show her at every
opportunity how grateful I am that she’s mine, how much I love her, how special she is to me.
And, I have to say, when my mate jumps in, she jumps in with both feet. There is never a day that goes
by where she doesn’t show me how much she loves me. Every time she looks at me, it makes my
heart stutter in my chest. Her love and respect for me are always on disy for everyone to see. I am
the luckiest man alive. I’m sure most people who have found their mates feel the same way, but they
would be wrong. No one and nothing is more special than Lily.
