The morning arrived faster then Ezra thought it would. He didn't sleep at all the previous night, thinking about how it will be if he will finally have his mate.
The enthusiasm was making him go crazy, but of course he had to keep it cool.
Lost in his own thoughts, Ezra didn't hear the persistent knocks on the door. Like waking up from a trans, the alpha allowed the person on the other side of the door to enter.
'Good morning, alpha! The car is waiting for you outside, but first come and eat the breakfast.' Tom told him while bowing a little. He was the alpha after all.
'Good morning to you too, beta. I don't feel like eating right now. But I hope you did,right?' Ezra asked his friend, more concerned about his well being then his own.
'Yes,Ezra! I have already eaten. Are you sure you don't want to?' The beta asked his superior in a caring manner.
'I am sure. Don't worry about me. Now, let's go and find out if Markus's son is my mate.' Ezra said while getting up from the desk that has become his bedroom in recent months.
Him and Tom exited the office and made their way to the car that was settled outside the mansion.
Ezra's heart was beating fast, thinking about what will happen. He could not wait to find out if Faith, Markus's son's name which he learned last night while reading some files about him, is his real mate. From what he has seen, Markus didn't really exposed his son too much to the world.
There wasn't many information about him, which made the alpha a little suspicious. But he let it go, thinking that maybe he will learn more about the boy if he turns out to be his mate.
In the same time, the alpha didn't want to have high hopes. He knew that Faith may not be his mate, since he was disappointed before. But he really did hope that the boy was his mate, because 1.he really wanted his mate and 2.he didn't know how much time he can stand without his mate and not getting crazy.
'Hope dies the last, right?' Ezra told himself in his mind and his wolf, Kai, murmured a 'yeah'. The wolf was kind of quiet since Ezra looked at Faith's photo and biography. It made the alpha a little concerned but he let it go, thinking that Kai was just a little down with the moral.
The truth was that Kai felt something when he saw Faith. Like a wave of energy passing through him. 'Maybe he really is our mate.' Kai thought.

The sun's rays entered my eyes, forcing me to turn on the other side.
'Faith, wake up! You have to get ready, the Alpha will be here in half an hour.!' My mom came in my room telling me this while she moved the curtains, letting the sun light up the room.
Once I heard about the alpha, I jumped from my bead and ran to the bathroom. My wolf, Hera, was very happy for an unknown reason. She kept saying 'Maybe he is our mate!' or 'What if he is our mate?'. And for some reason, I was excited too.
I took a shower, brushed my teeth and made my hair a little. Then I exited the bathroom and got in my closed. There, I got dressed with a white skirt with black strips. Then I put on a pink sweatshirt that reached below my bottom and had 'Baby Boy' written on it.
It was normal for omegas in general to dress girly, and I really enjoyed it. Since my figure and curves were much more feminine for an omega, I was used to dress like that.
When I was done, I puffed on myself a few times from my favorite perfume that smelled of vanilla and peaches. My mom told me that you can't smell the scent of an omega. Just his or her mate can smell it. 'I wonder what my scent is..' I told myself in my head and Hera responded 'I bet you have a sweet smell!'. I laughed a little and exited my room.
Once I was in the living room, I spotted my dad and my mom standing on a couch. My dad was reading something and my mom seemed a little sad. 'It's probably because you will go with an alpha which you know nothing about.' Hera said through our link. I nodded my head lightly. She was right, I was going to leave my family.
'What the heck are you waiting for? Do you need a special invitation to sit?' My dad growled in my direction and I was a little startled by his voice. I sat down beside my mother which didn't talk with me. I guess she wasn't allowed to do that.
'Listen here! You will behave exemplary, do you understand?' My dad asked me while he kept looking on some files.
'Yes, alpha.' I answered him with a low voice.
'Good, cause I don't want the Alpha to find out anything abo..' He didn't have time to finish since a knock was heard from the door. My dad throw me a glare and then plastered a fake smile on his face while he made his way to the door.
My mom took my hand and led me to the door also. She looked at me and gave me a small smile. I smiled at her too, thinking about what's going to happen.
'Alpha Reed, welcome!' I heard my dad talking with someone, perhaps the Alpha.
'Thank you, Alpha Markus. I am happy that...' his sentence didn't end and for five minutes, there was a complete silence.
I had my head bend down, since I wasn't allowed to look at the Alpha without his permission.
My wolf was going crazy. She kept saying something like 'mate!' 'that's our mate!'. She tried to take control and pull me in the alpha's direction. I tried to keep her calm but she wasn't listening. It was like she only wanted to reach the Alpha.
'Mate. My Mate.' A growl was heard and I couldn't resist the temptation to look up. So I did.
The moment I looked eyes with him, I could feel my whole body worm up. I could swear that my face was as red as a tomato.
The alpha's eyes were focused on me, travelling from my face to my toes, making my face heat up more. His eyes switched to red, his wolf probably taking control of his mind.
'Mine' he muttered and walked to me in kind of a fast pace. When he was almost in front of me, he pulled me from my elbow and because of that I landed with my face buried in his chest. His scent was so alluring that I find myself burying my nose more in his hard-rock chest. Hera was purring from delight and I,myself, was doing the same thing. His presence was calming and I felt protected. Something that I didn't felt for a long time.
'We found our mate!' Hera said through our link. I just smiled and let the warmth to engulf me.
'You have no idea for how long I've been looking for you! Now I finally have you, I won't let you go for nothing!' My now mate whispered in my ear, sending shivers through my whole body and blood to my cheeks. I just buried my face deeper in his chest, trying to decrease the blush from my face.
'Aham...What is happening? You can't be for real,right? Is he your real mate, alpha?' My father asked my mate. I could feel him stiffing in his place with me still in his embrace.
'I think you forget your place, Markus.' The alpha told my father, with a hateful tone. 'Is he mad?' I asked myself.
'Yes, my dear mate, I am mad. Very mad.' He told me. He distanced himself from me, and I couldn't help but whimper a little from the loss of touch. The alpha looked at me once more, with a small smile.
'I'm not leaving without you. Stay calm,love.' He told me trough our link. The loving nickname made me blush again. Then he made his way to my dad, which made me a little concerned. 'What is he going to do?' I asked Hera.
'I-I don't know..' she answered.
'So..you dare to look me in the eyes while you know what you did?' The alpha questioned my dad. I was confused since I didn't know what was he talking about.
'I'm sorry but I don't think I understand what are you talking about.' My dad told him. My mate's pheromones started to get thicker, meaning that he was very angry.
'How could you sell your own son?' He growled, almost screaming. And I finally understand why was he mad about. He was mad because of my father and his decision.
'A-alpha, there is a m-misunderstanding here. Le-let me explain this!' The alpha begged my mate. The tone he used, I've never heard him talk like that. Or maybe he wasn't talking in that way just with me.
'I don't need any explanation! Now, I will take Faith with me and you will have your filthy money returned. But, you will no longer be the alpha. Your rank will be given to someone else who is better then you.' I widened my eyes in complete shock. I looked at my mother who had a stunned expression. She didn't deserve to be treated as my father. It wasn't her fault.
I made my way with small steps till I was behind my mate. I think he sensed me since he turned to me. He looked at me with a concerned expression, probably thinking that something was bothering me.
'P-please, d-don't do t-this. It's e-enough if he a-apologise.' I told him and he looked at me like I had two heads.
He turned to my father again and stayed like that for a few seconds.
'You heard him. Apologise! Bow down and apologise to your own son, who you treated like an enemy and not as your family!' My mate ordered him.
My father looked kind of shocked since an Alpha was never bowing to anyone lower in rank than them.
He hesitated at first, but after he looked again in my mates's eyes, he did it.
My dad, the person who hated me the most in the whole world, bowed in front of me.
'I apologise, son! I'm sorry for my behaviour and I hope you can forgive me!' he said with an annoyed tone.
'I-I f-forgive you!' I said in a trembling voice. Then I looked up at my mate and to my surprise, he was already looking at me.
'Now, if Faith is ready, we have to go.I can't wait for the pack to see you!' He said in a excited tone. I smiled at him and turned to my mother. Her face was stained with tears. I was going to miss her so much. Hera was crying to. It was our mother,eventually. I ran beside her and hugged her. I buried my face in her neck, taking in her calming scent.
'Stay safe, ok mom?' I asked her, taking a step back to look at her.
'Don't worry about me,pumpkin. Enjoy your mate and be happy! You've been suffering too much. I love you so much, my precious boy!' She said before giving me another tight hug. I shed a lot of tears knowing that she will be alone with dad. I hope he won't hurt her.
'I think your mate is waiting for you. Go!' She told me and pushed me to my mate who was standing at the door frame with my bags in he's hands. 'When did he got them?' I asked myself.
'Come on,love. We have to go.' He said looking straight in my eyes.
I looked one single time at my parents. My mom crying and my dad who had an emotionless expression plastered on his face. Even if he treat me like garbage, I still loved him. He was family.
We exited the house and my alpha..'God, that sounds good!' Hera exclaimed through our link. So my alpha set my bags in the trunk, then he got in the car, at the wheel.
'So, if you don't know already, my name is Ezra Reed and I am the alpha of the Dark Shadow pack.'
𝐸𝑧𝑟𝑎 I said in my head. I loved his name.
'I-I didn't k-know your name,sir. I-I'm s-sorry.' I didn't know why I was apologising but it felt right. Ezra looked at me in a weird way, making me think that I did something wrong.
'Why are 𝑦𝑜𝑢 apologising because your father never told you anything about the outside world?' He asked me and I kept quiet. I didn't know if I should answer or wait for him to let me speak. I choose the last one.
'Why are you not answering? Is there something wrong?' The alpha asked me again but I didn't know what to say. 'Was he mad because I wasn't answering?' I thought in my head.
'I'm not mad about anything. Especially, I can't be mad at you!' He said.
'I just thought that I scared you or something..' he finished his idea and I felt a hand lifting my head. Our faces where so close that I could feel his breath on my lips.
'Y-you didn't scar-scare me. I just don't know what to answer!' I was happy because my voice did not tremble at the end. His eyes lingered down my face and my lips especially.
'Don't you ever again blame yourself for your father's mistakes! You are not guilty of anything!' My mate said and I nodded my head slowly, our eyes still connected.
Then suddenly, he began to bend down and the next moment a pair of lips were on mine. I gasped from the sudden gesture but tried to stay calm. I could feel my heartbeat in my ears. I was sure that my face was red. Finally, I closed my eyes and let him continue what he started.
His lips felt so soft against my bigger ones. His tongue liked my bottom lip, lightly biting it. I let out a gasp and he toke advantage of that and inserted his tongue in my mouth.
He licked inside my mouth, probably enjoying the moment. Our tongues danced together, but since I didn't have any experience in any intimate action, he did everything.
After some time, we parted because of the leak of air. Our eyes were locked in an endless staring game. Which he won. His gaze was so strong that it made me whimper.
'We will do more serious things than just kissing. So be ready!' He smirked in my directions after seeing my flustered face. I turned my face to look out of the window.
In the end I hope I will have the family that I've always dreamed about. A family with my mate and our future pups.
