3 – Emerson’s POV:
Earlier that same day…..
Emerson slams his car door shut in the student parking lot. His best friend and future Beta River comes up slapping him on his shoulder. “Hey Alpha, ready for today”. Emerson looks over at River, shakes his head and starts walking towards the front door. “Aww, was it something I said?” “Just my dad as usual. Getting on my case about taking the Alpha position seriously.” Oh, so it’s about Molly again huh.” “You know it. Come on man, let’s get to class before we are late.”
Man, my dad just really pisses me off. It’s like he is living in the dark ages. He still believes that us wolves shouldn’t have any kind of relationships until we meet our fated mates. Again, last night, my dad the Alpha called me into his office. “So, what are your plans when taking over the pack next year?” “I’ll be ready dad.” I said as I sat down across from him. “I just want to make sure you are taking this seriously. Have you broken up with that human girl as we talked about?” Sighing, I said “What are you talking about dad? Why would I break up with Molly? I’m in love with her.” “Son, what do you want? You can’t bring a human into our world unless she is your fated mate. If she is not, how are you going to explain this to your fated mate, huh?” “Dad, I want to make Molly my mate. I don’t want a fated mate.” My dad just stared at me, not believing what he had just heard.
Emerson knows that he just pissed his dad off. The aura that he is pushing out doesn’t make him cower, only because he is also an Alpha. Everyone else would be down on their knees cowering, baring their necks in submission. “Son, you are an Alpha. Alpha’s do not have chosen mates. We have always had our fated mates. It’s the most precious gift given to us from the Moon Goddess. If the Goddess forbids you not to have a fated mate, you will have to wait until you are allowed to take a chosen mate at the earliest 30 years old. Do you think she will wait that long to be with you? Or can you wait that long to become Alpha? You know you cannot become Alpha without having a mate to help run the pack. Not to mention that you’re fated mate makes you stronger. A chosen mate cannot do that.” My dad sighs, looking at me. “Maybe I should consider one of your brothers for the Alpha position. You don’t seem to want to follow the customs that we as wolves honor.”
He’s kidding, right! I jumped out of my seat and started pacing back and forth. I can feel the steam coming out of my ears with my own aura coming out in waves. “You can’t do that dad. I have been working hard all my life to become Alpha. You can’t take that away from me.” “Son, the problem is, if you don’t follow our beliefs, the pack will not follow you. They will not follow an Alpha without his fated mate.” I stopped, looking at my father. All hope of me keeping Molly for the rest of my life fell out of my grasp. “How can I just throw her away, dad? We have been dating since the beginning of high school. I I love her.” My dad stands up, walking over to me, putting his hand on my shoulder. “Son, that is why we don’t date until we meet our fated mates. Young wolves today see all their classmates (mostly humans) dating and having s*x. I understand you want to have just as much fun, but that is not how our world works. I warned you when I heard about you dating this human to start with.” Dad looked at me with a look of concern. “Don’t worry dad, I will find my fated mate.” I turned to walk out of his office. It just doesn’t mean I can’t keep Molly. What dad doesn’t know won’t hurt him. If he only knew that heart ache, his decision would cause everyone involved in the future.
Walking down the hallway with River, we fist bump as he turns right to his classroom and I turn left to mine. I’m still upset about the conversation I had last night with my dad. I pushed the classroom door with too much aggression and pushed it open, causing it to slam shut. Looking around the classroom, I notice a girl in the back corner pulling her hood up and around her face, weirdo. Finally, my eyes landed on Molly. I walked right up to her, grabbing the back of her neck, pulling her in for a deep French kiss. I just want to rip her clothes off, sink my hard length into her and pound into her until all my aggression and anger is gone. Her whimpering and moaning does not help my huge erection, just makes it throb more. Just then, the classroom door opens and Professor Johnson walks in. “Okay, love birds separate now or detention for both of you.” Goddess, I hate him. I’m trying to sit in my seat arranging my erection to relieve the pressure and pain. Hopefully it goes away soon.
