Mate me - 10. Happy

“What’s an omega?” We were back in my room. She was sitting on my bed and looking so damn good. I wished she was naked. She smirked. Right the bond. “Focus.” She teased. I bet she didn’t realize she was doing that. My pulse quickened. My gaze hovered on her lips. When I looked up and caught her amused expression I blushed. “I just noticed something about you.” I shivered her tone was silky smooth. I was moving towards her.

“What?”

“I’m not going to say.” I crawled unto the bed laying beside her. I itched to touch her, to rip off her clothes, to taste her and to be inside her all at once. I needed to finish mating her. Because I would honestly go crazy from desire. I already wanted to scream. She raised herself up onto her side. “You ok babe?” Her smile was angelic. Fuck. I was overheating. I took a deep breath and counted to ten. She leaned into me. She was looking down into my eyes. Her hair fell forward unto my chest. It took everything in me not to flip her over and rut into her. I also didn’t want this moment to end. I didn’t want to ruin this. “Tell me what an omega is and you’ll get a nice reward.” I felt a surge of pleasure. I clenched my fists.

“Don’t tease me.”

“I wouldn’t dare.” She smiled serenely.

“In a pack there is one alpha, a bunch of betas. Betas are like worker bees in a sense. They can fill many roles except for leadership roles. Their wolves have no interest in that. An omega is super rare. They are the healers of the pack, the shaman, the medicine person. If a pack has one they only have one. They are that rare. An omega and alpha pairing is the only way to create an alpha.”

“So your mom was an omega?”

“Yes.”

“And your father was an alpha.”

“Yes.”

“Can that coupling only have alphas?”

“No they can have betas and omegas.”

“But you’re an alpha?” She rested her hand on my chest. I sucked in a breath.

“Omegas are irresistible. Even once mated…” I mumbled my edges blurring just a bit.

“Their beauty is unmatched, their personality alluring, their...” she leaned down and kissed me sweetly. I sighed into her. This was almost enough, it would’ve been if it wasn’t for my need. I pulled her on top of me, moaning when our bodies came together. “My omega.” I said before connecting with her lips. She wiggled against me. I sucked in a rush of air. She moved from my lips and traced a path to my neck. My lower body tingled. I groaned it was more like a growl, the sucking was feeling so good. My wolf was close to the surface. I needed this now. “Jacs,” I moaned. “Stop let’s talk.” She grumbled something about me being touchy feely but she stopped. Not before scraping her teeth against the sensitive skin she had been sucking on. I shivered.

“Talk.” She smirked.

“I um need to mate with you.” I swallowed. “I need to complete the bond.” She shrugged.

“Why are we talking.”

“This is serious Jacs. Once we bond, we would be mated. I would need you by my side. I need to know there’s a future here. I just can’t - this is real for me. Is it…do you-is it real for you?”

“Are you asking if I…?” I looked away. The four letter word hung between us.

“I just want to know, if you see this going anywhere.” She sighed and my stomach clenched.

“I don’t know about forever.” She looked away. “I want to see where this goes I want a relationship.” She finished softly. “I think this is really special and it could be...more.” Warmth spread in my chest.

“Would you like to be my mate?” I was shy, ’she grinned.

“I thought we already were mates. Now bond with me.” She laughed.

“I might get rough but I’ll always listen. I’ll always yield to you.” I didn’t give her a

chance to response. I flipped her over and covered her smaller frame with my own

 ***

“This is what it’s like.” She said as we laid in the afterglow.

“What are you talking about.” Her head was in the crook of my arm and her body was pulled into mine protectively. She grinned.

“This is what sex with feeling is like.” Her voice was quiet. She blushed. I felt a flutter. Just like that I wanted to take her again. She gave me a look. I smiled sheepishly and kissed her forehead. She needed to rest she was sore.

“That’s how it is with mates. With true mates.”

“What are..?”

“An alpha and an omega pairing.” I answered softly. Her look was thoughtful.

“You might be leading this pack.” She stated.

“Maybe.”

“I would be the healer.” I nodded. She tilted her head up at me and looked into my eyes. I’m scared but I trust you Riley. I know you’ll keep me safe. Warmth radiated through my body. I promise. Our lips touched and our breathe flowed between us. I’ll take care of you alpha. And I you, my omega. We belong to each other. And we fit together as one. The warmth between us overflowed, our hearts bloated with feeling. The words not being said by one but both. It was a contract that we both would honour. It was our mating vow. Our bond was complete. I leant down and kissed her soft lips. I hugged her tighter. I wasn’t usually possessive neither was my wolf but I wanted to embed my scent into her body so that there was no doubt we were together. As if the howls I let out during our union wasn’t indication enough. She chuckled softly against me.

“Everyone knows I’m yours now silly.” She stroked my cheek. “I can sense the pack, like a collective consciousness that I can’t really read clearly but I can get the jist of their emotion.” She paused. “They’re pretty pumped.” I was surprised that she could feel the pack. I wondered if with time she’d be able to communicate with them this way. Seems daunting. Her eyes were wide. It’s not.

“They’ll welcome you. They already have a good sense of who you are.” I spoke.

“They already accept you…There’s a pack meeting soon in a couple days probably. The pack wants to meet the new omega.” She blushed, I felt the subtle warmth, the rise in temperature. I felt like I was blushing. It thrilled me. She was looking at me it was my turn to blush. She shivered.

“Fuck, that’s so hot” She whispered.

“Our bond is strong.” Things were different. My wolf was settled and there was a newfound sense of comfort. I was home.

“It’s not always like this?”

“I don’t know… the bond is usually stronger with pairings like ours… I’ve never heard of feeling your mate blush..” My face grew hot. She was was my mate. Mine. She moaned softly. Stop I need to rest. Her face was a little flushed. My heart fluttered. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Stop turning me on. I can’t help it. I can’t resist my omega. I’m yours. I leaned down and kissed her. I savoured her essence on my tongue. I could never get sick of this. I wasn’t sure about forever, but I’m willing to try. I groaned, pulling her on top of me. Deepened by the kiss. I’m yours I’ll take whatever you give me.

It took three weeks for me to accept my position as the Alpha’s heir. Since the role required me to move into the Alpha’s guest house, Peter’s self imposed banishment began the day I moved in. Apart of me felt bad that I had alienated him from his father and the pack and maybe he might never find another pack. Wolf rules are simple you’re born into a role and failing that there is no back up. On the other hand he was a sadistic bastard who would’ve gotten away with murder if he had that much power. Jacs reassured me many times that things happened the way they were supposed. It took some coaxing but I got over it. besides it was clear that it was Peter who was cutting ties from his father. He was no longer in line for alpha but he was still the alpha's son. However, his pride and desire to save face was the reason for his self imposed exile. Jacs moved in with me shortly after Peter left the pack. She had to square things away with her family first. Her mother was accepting as we expected. We just had to promise to go over for family diners once a month. Convincing her father that this was a smart move took a week of me going over for family dinners and her father meeting her future landlord, Alpha Chris. Surprisingly they got along really well and since she wasn’t moving far away her dad felt better about letting go.

Once the alpha found out about Jacs education in medicine he pulled some stings and got her job with the local veterinary office as admin assistant that she immediately loved. She decided to go back to school and become a veterinarian in a year. I couldn’t have been prouder.

It didn’t take long to establish a routine. During the day I studied with the Alpha and my nights and weekends were spent with my mate. I was happy, we were happy. The pack fed off our happiness and it made us stronger. I was amazed and grateful that this was my life now and I would stop at nothing to protect it.

The End
