The Alphas Love

A Little Too Much

Sage P.O.V.

I turned around and saw two figures behind me. A man and a woman, both smiling at me with so much genuine love. A smile immediately made its way to my face as well, a feeling of familiarity and comfort washing over me. I could see their mouths moving, but the words coming out were muffled.

I tried getting a good look at them, but I couldn't see anything above their lips. It was weird, like I could see them but couldn't at the same time. It didn't matter to me though, I was just content with them being near me. I was relishing in the comforting feeling they gave me.

They opened their arms and started coming near me. My smile grew even bigger and I started running to them. When I got midway to them, a black shroud came over them and started pulling them away. I could hear their muffled screams and could see them fighting to get away from it. I started to panic and tried to run to them again, but it felt as though a hundred hands were grabbing me from everywhere, pulling me backwards. I started thrashing around, trying to free myself from these hands.

I looked back up and saw now the older couple was nothing but a mere speck in the darkness. I felt defeated. I started fighting off the hands once more, but when I looked back up, the familiar figures were gone. Taken away from me.

I felt a dark hand cover my mouth and, just as it did, I screamed 'NO' at the top of my lungs.

I jolted upright and looked around. I was sitting in Leons office on his couch. I was panting hard and sweating all over. I tried to calm my breathing and looked behind me. Leon was just getting up from his desk and running over to me. He grabbed both of my hands in his, the sparks traveling up my arms and into my chest. I took in a deep breath and looked at him.

His mouth was moving, but again I couldn't hear what was being said because of an annoying ringing in my ears. He lifted his hand up and cupped the side of my face. I leant into his touch and closed my eyes, the events from my dream were playing over and over like a projector on the inside of my eyelids. And just like that, I broke down in tears.

I couldn't stop myself, nor did I want to. I needed to get this out, to get this heaviness off my chest. I could hear myself sobbing but it sounded so alien to my own ears. Leon was quick to sit next to me on the couch and cradled me into his chest. He was petting my hair and whispering soft coos and sweet nothings to me while I bawled into his shirt.

Eventually, my sobs quieted down into just sniffles. Silent tears were still falling as I tried to make sense of the dream.

Who were those people?

What do they mean to me?

Where do I recognize them from?

Why is this having such an effect on me?

I let out a shaky breath and looked up at the man holding me. He looked down at me as well and gently pushed the hair that was matted to my face behind my ears. He then wiped all my tears away with the pad of his calloused thumb. I couldn't help the shiver that went down my spine.

"Do you want to talk about it?" he asked me softly.

I thought about it for awhile, should I tell him? I decided to wait until I had a better grip on my emotions to tell him, so I shook my head. He looked a little disappointed at first, but then gave me a small smile.

"I understand, just let me know if you want to talk about later. When you're ready." He slowly leaned in and left a lingering kiss on my cheek. I sighed at the feeling of his lips on my skin, setting off fireworks throughout my entire body.

I had to grip the edge of the leather couch to stop me from jumping on him and trying to take all the emotional pain away with physical pleasure.

Leon got up from the couch and pulled something from out of his mini fridge he had in the room. He brought the bottle of water over to me and sat down again, rubbing circles on my back.

"Aceso told me to give this to you when you woke back up, she said it'll help," he told me.

I hadn't even realized how sore my body still was from earlier, if anything, I felt even more sore now. I took the bottle from it and gulped it down in record time. As soon as I got it all down and took a breath, I instantly felt rejuvenated. My body didn't hurt anymore and I had the energy of a four year old. I looked over at Leon and smiled.

"Thank you," I told him and rested my head on his shoulder.

"No problem," he matched my smile and gave me a side hug, rubbing my arm. "So, Farah ended up going shopping on her own earlier, and she got back a little while ago. Would you want to go hang out with her for just a little bit? She's been bugging me to ask you."

"Yeah, I'd like that," I said, not making a move to get off his shoulder.

"Come on," he said, getting up and pulling me with him.

He held my hand the whole way leading me down to Farah and Travis' room. He knocked on the door and turned around to face me. I could feel my heart palpitating heavy in my chest. Having him this close to me was making my stomach do flips and my cheeks to redden. I felt like a tomato.

"I'll come and get you in a couple hours for dinner, alright," he said sweetly and then leaned in and kissed my cheek.

I felt my face burn even more and my legs were quivering. This man was having much more of an effect on me contrary to before. He walked away with a smirk and I was left staring into Farahs wide eyes. Before I could even utter a word, she grabbed my hand and pulled me into the room with her.

Once inside, I noticed Elaine sitting casually on a love seat with a glass of wine and a smirk.

"Hey there, what're you doing?" I asked as I sat down on the couch across from her.

Farah had their bedroom set up like a small living space, with their bedroom in the adjoining room next door. This room was more like a living space, with a couch and loveseat and a large screen television mounted on the wall. I stared intently at whatever it was playing, realizing that I had never seen one being with James, yet, somehow, I knew what it was. I shook my head in an attempt to clear my thoughts, and smiled at Farah. She had sat down next to me and focused all of her attention on me. After a few minutes, it started to get creepy.

"What's up?" I asked her wearily.

"You guys are at that level already?" she asked with a narrowed gaze.

"Level?"

"Yeah, Sage! He kissed you! I mean, not on the lips or anything hot like that, but still! I've never seen that man kiss any chick he's been with, ever."

Her statement caused me to blush, reminding me of the short, but passionate, kiss we exchanged earlier today. I looked away and bit at my lip, trying to hide my smile. But I failed, apparently.

"What?" Farah asked, leaning over to look at my hidden face. "What am I missing here?"

Elaines smirk never left her face, like she already knew what had happened between me and their King. I tried answering but I couldn't find my voice anywhere.

"I'm pretty sure something heated happened between those two today. The way that little Princess stormed out of his office this afternoon, she must have caught them getting down and dirty," Elaine said with a wink.

"No! We weren't doing that, we just kissed. A simple kiss," I exclaimed, throwing my hands around.

"Oh my Goddess!" Farah squealed while Elaine joined her giggling.

I shook my head at the two, the biggest smile never leaving my face. I felt myself bite my lip again thinking back to that moment. The way the sparks set off fireworks throughout my body, leading down to the special spot between my thighs. It was heavenly, nothing could top the feelings it gave to me just by having his soft lips on mine.

"Okay, so back on track," Farah started, "I want all three of us to celebrate. From having your closet filled with clothes now, your very first kiss I presume, and also Elaine helping out to break that connection with whatever b***h has done all this bullcrap to you. Tonight, we party!" She was real hyped up and they both had wine glasses that they lifted into the air. "Don't worry, I'll just be having some grape juice while you ladies have all the fun."

She got up and ran into their little kitchenette area, grabbing another wine glass and a bottle of wine. I was a little unsure if I should drink or not, I've seen the effects with James, but I felt safe here and it wouldn't hurt to have a little fun with these ladies. She sat the glass down on the table in front of me and filled it up a little more than halfway. She then proceeded to hand it to me and sat back down next to me. I stared at the dark purplish liquid like it was the most intriguing thing I had ever laid eyes on.

"So, how many women has Leon been with?" I asked after a few moments of comfortable silence. I wasn't sure if it was the right time to be asking this question, but it had been weighing on my mind ever since that Princess showed up. It was now or never.

"Honey, if you want me to answer that truthfully, then you'll probably want that drink," Farah said with a chuckle. "But, I can say that I have never seen him like this with any other female. I think he really likes you."

"Really?" I asked with a smile matching hers and Elaines.

"Yes, really. He's never even kept his attention on one woman for more than an hour," Elaine answered.

"Do you think that's why he was so possessive last night?"

"Of course," Farah said, faking exasperation. 

I couldn't hide the happiness that enveloped me. With that, I gave a shrug and knocked the glass back with a few gulps.

"Oh Goddess, you can't drink wine like that!" Farah laughed.

"Why not," I slurred, already feeling the effects.

"Uh oh," Elaine lowly chuckled.

"What?" Farah asked.

"You brought out the werewine, not the regular wine," Elaine giggled.

"Oh Hell," Farah said, facepalming, making me giggle.

**An Hour and A Half Later**

Leon P.O.V.

I was walking down the fourth story hallway with Travis, ready to go get our girls for dinner. Once we got a few doors down, we could hear the loud music blasting from his bedroom. We gave each other a concerned look and then I heard Travis mutter a few curse words before jogging the rest of the way down.

We opened the door and stepped inside. When I had found the girls, I also found myself rooted to the spot barely being able to breathe. I watched Sage closely.

She was standing up with Elaine, swaying her body to the song s*x And Candy by Marcy Playground with a wine glass in her hand. She was so beautiful, and moving her body with so much grace I felt like I was about to combust. Her hips were dancing with so much seductiveness, I was planning on walking up and taking her right there. My sole focus was on her and it made everybody else in the room disappear.

"Farah, what did you do?" Travis asked accusingly, making all three heads snap to us.

As soon as Sages eyes found mine, a big goofy smile spread out on her face. She put down her glass and ran over to me, jumping in my arms. Her scent had become slightly stronger mixed in with the werewine.

"Werewine? Really Farah?" I asked her.

"It was an honest mistake, Alpha, and I sincerely apologize," Farah said with her head hung.

"It's fine," I sighed. "Just don't let it happen again."

I turned my attention back to the smiling woman in my arms. Her eyes were hooded and glossy and she was having trouble keeping her balance.

"You're so pretty, it's not even fair," Sage slurred while pouting. She had grabbed both sides of my face and began smushing and stretching it every which way.

I could hear the girls giggling and I even heard Travis chuckle too, but I went I sent him a death glare, he tried to cover it up by clearing his throat. I rolled my eyes and gently grabbed her wrists, bringing her hands down from torturing my face anymore.

"Thank you, beautiful. We should get you something to eat so you don't wake up feeling like crap too badly tomorrow, alright?" She closed her eyes and nodded, the drunken smile never faltering from her lips.

Without even asking, I scooped her up bridal style and made the way back up to my bedroom. I'll just have them deliver dinner for us, then have her take a shower so she'll hopefully sober up enough to not be hungover.

As I was walking up to our floor, I could feel her tiny fingers playing with my hair at the nape of my neck. The sparks were sending goosebumps all down my spine and I had to push to control myself. Right when I walked into my room, my face was captured by two tiny hands and the perfect set of lips. Sage had maneuvered herself so now her legs were wrapped around my torso and she was grinding against me.

I lost control for a minute and slammed her back to the wall, rubbing my hands up her thighs and pushing myself against her harder. She let out a small whimper as she fisted my hair. She allowed me entrance almost immediately and my tongue started its exploration of her devilishly sweet mouth.

We stayed like that for what felt like hours, although it was only minutes if not seconds. She pulled away for air while I kneaded her thighs. The sparks were going off like tiny explosions all over my body and I was shaking by trying to hold myself back. I wasn't going to take advantage of her, not like this.

Not ever.

I put my forehead against hers and looked deep into her unique eyes. We were both still panting slightly, but I didn't want to let her go. Not yet.

I opened my mouth to say something, but before I could, she blurted out something I never expected to hear.

"I saw my parents in that dream. I want to find them."
