"Yes Alpha?" We were walking back towards the Packhouse and he says, "We have your quarters available, you can choose from the two rooms at the corner here." And pointed to a room at the end of the Packhouse with a balcony on both sides. I think she'll like that. "And the room next to it is also available. There's one at the other end-" "We'll take the one on this end, I think she'll like the view from the balcony." I say decisively and he claps me on my back grinning, "You're a smart wolf!" I frown slightly, "What you mean by that?" He chuckles, "Happy Wife equals a happy Life! Remember that and you'll be all good, Tank." I smile, "I will."
He clears his throat saying, "Abijah is a great girl, Tank. She's just been through hell with the Beta. I hate that he did that to her and right under my damn nose!" He was actively pissed I feel it rolling off him, but it doesn't affect me because I'm an Alpha also. He turns to me curiosity tinged in his anger, "Why didn't you kill him?" I sigh irritated, "She asked me to spare him so his pup wouldn't be an orphan." He seems genuinely surprised, "Compassion. It's an essential part of being an Alpha and Luna and running a successful pack. It's great to see you two making these types of decisions together already. Shows great leadership qualities. I've been thinking of having y'all be the Alpha and Luna here once me and Toya go South. What do you say? Think y'all can handle it?" He was staring at me intently with those candy apple green eyes, identical to his fathers' Alpha CJ.
Speaking of CJ, I need to find him to ask about making her one of us. "I'll have to ask Abijah, I don't want to overwhelm her with too much. She already has a lot to deal with, with the Mating Ritual and being added to the Pack. Now she has our quarters to design this week too. If she's able to move when I'm done with her." I whisper that last part. Alpha laughs, "Yeah that's true being newly Mated. Means you're going to want to 'Bury your Bone' in her constantly! Here's a piece of advice, heal her up after each Mating session and you can go all you want. It's what I did with Toya." He smirks and shrugs before he continues, "Just remember to let Zavier out okay. He'll want to be around her too. Just maybe not in the same way you want to." We both chuckle, that's some sound advice and I'll heed it.
We were walking back to the party and we run into CJ, "Hey I really need to ask you something. Do you have a minute?" I show my urgency in my voice. He nods, "Sure what's on your mind Tank?" Yes! "How do I turn my Mate into one of us?" He looks shocked glancing between me and his Son. "Oh what! You wanna turn her huh? Aight well there's a way. When you Mark her-" "I've already.. Marked her." I say feeling a bit guilty for not asking for her consent first. He looked surprised then suspicious, "Oh What, does she know you're supposed to get her permission first?" Damn I was really feeling the guilt now, my eyebrows furrowed and I rub the back of my neck nervously, "No, she's human so I don't think she knows. It was a decision me and Zavier made on the fly. We were.. impulsive." I couldn't even look them in the eye.
He looks disappointed in me, my Dad did too. I can even feel their wolves disappointment, sigh, "Now Tank you know damn well than to listen to Zav, he's a child! He thinks childish and has childish ways. I expect better from you in the future, do you understand!" My Dad says, "Wait, you didn't ask for her permission first? Tank what the fuck were you thinking? You're lucky she's a damn human, because if you did that bullshit to a she-wolf! Your ass will be getting rejected!" I whimpered hearing those words. Just the thought of Abijah saying those words to me sends horrid chills down my spine! They reprimanded me and I heed sighing deeply, "Yes Alphas, I am sorry." My Dad comes to my aide as always, "But Father, in all rights Tank is young as well. We shouldn't completely go ham on him. You know how us Alphas can be when newly Mated. We're.. impulsive!" He says and we all look at each other and share a laugh.
"Well since you've already Marked her, when you Mate her pray to the Goddess that she turns Abijah into one of us. If she hears your plea you'll know and then you can Master Mark her while Mating. Just remember to ask for her permission. Then be there for her through her transition, k?" Awesome I hug him and thank him. He says, "No problemo, hijo. Just remember to treat her right, okay. She's a special individual being chosen as a Luna." I nod, "And I want some great grand babies soon!" He chuckles but Dad says, "Hey your two sisters will be here by the end of the week. So not too soon!" We all laugh again and I go back to my Mate.
