Not Your Typical Alpha

02 | Strange Feelings

*Alejandro*

“Welcome back to the Midnight Shadow pack, Alpha Alejandro.” I nodded at the alpha of our allies as he greeted me.

“We came here to help in any way possible. We heard about the attack, and we are sorry about all the lives lost.”

“Thank you, Alpha. We appreciate your alliance and help during this time. Please, you and your men can relax until after dinner. Then, we can discuss training strategies and doubling our security. I highly doubt we will be attacked again on the same day,” he informed me with a soft sigh as we all nodded in return before we followed him outside towards their nearby lake.

The Midnight Shadow pack had a decent sized pack of about six hundred fifty pack members with about three hundred or so warriors. They were not nearly as big as our pack, but they weren’t the smallest either.

Our pack had around five thousand pack members with about three thousand four hundred warriors, one thousand two hundred of which were probably the best in the world. We also had about fifteen hundred trackers to help in cases of attacks or kidnaps. No one really dared to mess with us. The best thing was that we were a big happy family.

“Wow, I love this view.” Apollo commented, forcing me to turn to look at him, since he wasn’t one to really appreciate nature. When I found him smirking downward, I followed his gaze to find that nature had nothing to do with his comment. Some she-wolf was playing in the water with another girl, both completely naked. The water was knee deep and you could completely see all that the goddess blessed them with. I’m not going to lie, they were sexy as hell, but we were on serious pack business.

I smacked the back of my beta’s head as I whisper yelled at him. “You know why we are here, you Herbert the pervert!”

“It’s been a minute since my last fūck,” he whined in return before blessing me with an eye roll when I squinted my eyes at him.

“Bro, you slept with Sandra two days ago,” I told him with a soft chuckle. Our seriousness with each other never lasted long.

“Exactly…” he huffed in annoyance, now making me roll my eyes.

“Fūck, your dīck is going to fall off. But I promise that before the alpha meeting, we will go out and find some girls so we can blow off some steam. I haven’t had a decent lay in a few weeks myself.” I turned to walk away when I felt some hands slide through my waist and up my chest, making a low growl rip through my chest.

I hate desperate women.

“Hello, Alpha. Would you like a tour of our pack house?” The naked she-wolf asked with a fake innocent smile.

“No,” I replied with authority before turning to the guys. “Let’s go.” I told them loudly through gritted teeth before walking away, leaving the she-wolf stomping angrily.

She can be sexy and all, but when they were desperate to jump in bed, it became a complete turn off for me. Regardless of that, every day it became harder to look at other she-wolves since I knew that I could meet my mate at any second. I wouldn’t want to be caught in a pregnancy or relationship scandal and lose my mate because of it.

Also, thinking about my mate sleeping around like I’ve been doing, makes me so pissed off. I don’t care about the double standards. I know I would destroy any man that even breathes the same air as my mate, let alone fūcks her.

“You okay, Alpha?” Apollo asked me, breaking me free from my thoughts.

“Yeah…yeah. I just have a lot on my mind. Do you want to go to a club tomorrow night?” I asked him as I looked around to make sure only my men could hear me.

“Fūck yeah!” He chuckled before looking over his shoulder. “How about you, Rafael?”

“Rafael, you seem awfully quiet today,” I commented, realizing now that he had been with us this whole time.

“Sorry, Alpha,” he replied as he leaned in. “I have a weird feeling.”

“Like what?” Apollo asked, quickly beating me to the question.

“Well, like, maybe I will be finding my mate—” he replied hesitantly.

“Well, would you not be happy about that?” I asked him, knowing damn well I’d be ecstatic.

“Yeah, but what if she is more powerful and wants me to move in with her?” he asked us, looking between Apollo and me with brows furrowed.

We both bit our lips as we tried to keep a straight face. We tended to joke around a lot, especially when it was just the three of us, but we couldn’t show our immature side when we were on pack duty.

“Well, you are the man and Gamma. You tell her that her place is with her mate, and she has to accept it.” I replied nonchalantly, knowing that if that was me, I’d do the same. Mate or not, I was the man after all.

“You aren’t considering stepping down for a mate, are you?” Apollo questioned him, forcing me to stare at Rafael as I waited for his answer.

I know Apollo wouldn’t, since he doesn’t really believe in how powerful the mate bond is. I knew the mate bond was something no werewolf could ignore, but I also believed that the she-wolf mate always had to follow the male mate unless they rejected them. Of course, not many survived a rejection, which was why it was rarely heard of.

“No, of course not. Just a weird feeling I’ve been having. It may not even be related to my mate,” he finally answered with a shrug, allowing us to sigh in relief.

“Let’s go, guys. Now I need a drink because of how tense your little topic made me,” I said, shaking my head.

*Xander*

“Alpha, we have all the luggage in the cars. The first SUV will have Doug, Kyle, Xander and you. The second will have three more warriors, including Oliver and Beta Winter. In the last car, we will have the female warriors with Gamma Summer.” Reina’s assistant, Kai, informed her with a smile.

“I can’t wait to have some alone time with you,” I whispered in Reina’s ear as she smiled at me with the cutest little smile.

I really love Reina. I know I promised not to get attached because we could end up finding our mates, but I couldn’t help it. She was so perfect. Perfect for me and I won’t allow anyone to take her from me now. Even if I had to kill her asshole of a mate, she would always be mine.

I leaned toward her and gave her a quick peck on her perfect lips before I opened her door. Once she slid into the black Escalade, I followed right after, closing the door after us as the SUVs immediately started towards our destination.

“Good morning. We are here to check in,” Reina greeted the hotel employee as he smiled back at her. I had to hold in the growl that threatened to escape as I pulled Reina in tighter by the waist.

She looked up at me and smiled as the hotel employee proceeded to ask the name the reservation was under.

“All six suites are under Stone,” she answered before he nodded, quickly handing us the room keys.

With keys in hand, we led the group towards the rooms that happened to be one next to the other.

“I’ll take the room in the middle. Here is your key, Summer. Room 7290. Here is your key, Winter. Room 7294,” Reina told the girls before she turned to some of the warriors that had followed us. “You guys take the rooms in front and switch every 8 hours with the other group.”

“Yes, Alpha,” they all said in unison.

Fūck, she makes me so hard. I loved it when she was all in command. It made me want to pound into her until we were both boneless.

“Okay, it’s been a long drive. Relax for a few hours and then we can meet up for dinner before we go out,” she informed them with a smile.

Once everyone walked into their rooms, I pushed Reina into ours and started ripping at her clothes. I was desperate to have her tight p***y around my dīck. When she started ripping at my clothes too, I almost lost it. I turned her around roughly and started kissing down her back passionately, desperate to show her who she belonged to.

By this time, we had reached the bed, so I pushed her face forward on it.

“Are you going to fūck me hard?” She asked seductively, making my dīck twitch as pre-cūm leaked out of the tip.

“Fūck yeah,” I growled as I finished ripping her pants and panties off.

I gave her ass a hard smack, making her moan echo into the air. The noises she made when I prepared to fūck her tight cūnt, always made me more feral, even more impatient to feel her.

I kneeled in front of her, spreading her toned legs around me and I started rubbing her clīt.

“You’re so ready for me, baby. So, wet,” I growled as I slid my fingers in her pūssy and started pumping into her hard.

She squirmed under my touch and after torturing her for a few seconds, I got up and removed the remaining clothes from my body before I quickly slid inside of her.

Fūck she was so tight.

“Baby, you feel so good,” I groaned, speeding up as I watched her grab the sheets tightly in her fists. When her delicious core tightened around me, I was about ready to come with her.

“Yes! Yes! Yes, Xander!” she screāmed before her sweet cream spilled on my cōck, making me come right with her.

Fūck, I came inside her. I hope she doesn’t notice this time.

“Stay here, baby,” I whispered in her ear before I left to the bathroom and wet a hand towel.

I quickly put on a condom, so she didn’t freak out. I would love to get her fūcking pregnant, but she would kill me if she found out I had been fūcking her without a condom this whole time and have been sliding the condom on after.

She was always so tired after sēx that she never noticed, but I tried to do it like that the least possible because if she did notice, I was definitely a dead wolf.

“I don’t know why, every time we have sēx, it never feels like you are wearing a condom and it feels different than other times I’ve had sēx,” she voiced as she yawned and flipped around on the bed.

“I—I’m not sure, baby,” I replied with a serious face, hoping she hadn’t noticed and it was just a random comment. “Let’s get you cleaned up.”

*Reina*

I stretched my arms quickly as I peaked at my phone. “Shīt, Xander. It’s 5:38. Get up!” I yelled, punching his arm as I scrambled to my feet.

“Damn, babe! You’re so gentle,” he stated sarcastically before he chuckled.

Every day it becomes harder to fake it. I care for him, but he’ll never be my mate. I don’t and won’t ever love him as he claims to love me.

Fūck, I don’t want to break his heart when the time comes.

“You okay, babe?” He asked with concern as he reached for my arm.

“Yeah. Come on. We are late and still have to shower.”

I ran through the room like a lunatic, grabbing my luggage before I pulled out a pink see-through lace body suit, leather jeans and my knee-high boots. I threw everything on the bed, including the toiletry cosmetics bag I always carried with me, and ran straight to the bathroom.

To my surprise, we managed to be done within the hour.

“Damn, babe, you look finer than wine,” Xander purred as he winked at me, making me laugh before blowing him a kiss. “By the way, that was record time for you.”

“Shut up. You take long as hell too. I’ve never understood why, since you don’t have to do anything with your face or hair.” I replied with a huff before rolling my eyes at him.

“Come on, babe, I know I was born hot and all, but I have to make a lot of effort to look at least a quarter of how good you look,” he murmured as he kissed my head.

“Shut up.” I rolled my eyes at him before punching his arm, making him growl seductively.

“So feisty.”

“Let’s go before you get any ideas,” I told him as I pulled him by his arm towards the door.
