"Hey sleepyhead get up,it's already seven o'clock we need to get ready for breakfast."I murmured,as I stroked Andie's soft cheek with my thumb.
My girl pouted her cute little lips,rubbed her eyes and pushed herself up off my chest. She spun her head around to glance at the clock on the nightstand." Why are you here so early?" She squeaked,it seems like my adorable little mouse is back this morning .
" I'm not, I never left sweetheart, you fell asleep and I didn't want to wake you up.Now come on get up." I coaxed, helping her crawl over my leg, swinging my legs around to stand behind her. I Grabbed her shoulders and pointed her towards the bathroom. " Go, I'll be back in thirty minutes."I ordered, turned on my heels and shot out of the bedroom.
It's not that I was in a hurry to leave Andie but just as I had expected, my cock was hard as a rock ,from breathing in her erotic scent all night. Just as soon as I stepped out the door ,I
adjusted my cock ,which only provided a touch of relief. Fortunately for me I didn't meet anyone in the hallway on the way to my room.
Not wasting a second, I stripped down and jumped into the shower. I closed my eyes letting the cold water fall over me as I stroked my cock with my right hand,and cursed those bastards for kidnapping my mate and putting her into cryosleep.
The more I thought about it ,the madder I got.If those greedy fuckers had just left my girl alone ,she would be of legal age of consent right now. She still wouldn't be able to feel the bond yet, but at least I could romance her and make her fall in love with me. Hell we could even get married with Alpha Lucius consent of course ,and try to start a family like a normal couple.
Well,there's nothing that can be done about it now. However, I can find the motherfuckers responsible for the kidnapping of Young Alpha Chase and the attempted kidnapping of Penny's little girl and hopefully put an end to them.
With that thought in mind, I soaped up and washed my hair in record time, brushed my teeth, threw on a dark blue pole shirt and a pair of jeans.Then headed on down the hall to Andie's room,tapped once on the door and stepped on inside.
" In here " Julie yelled from inside the bathroom.Curious to see what the hell Julie was doing to my girl. I sauntered on over to the doorway, crossed my arms over my chest and leaned against the bathroom door frame.
My girl was standing in front of the bathroom mirror while Julie braided two small pieces of hair from beside Andie's temples.
Glancing at my girl's reflection through the mirror, it wasn't hard to figure out that Julie was responsible for today's outfit too.But to be perfectly honest, it wasn't that bad this morning.
The only visible skin I could see was her cute little belly button with that adorable little belly ring. About an inch around the front of her
belly showed between the waistband of the light washed jeans she had on and the little white crop top she was wearing.
All other exposed skin the crop top didn't cover was concealed underneath the short light blue cardigan she was wearing .
Julie had even bought a pair of light blue shoreline chucks that matched the sweater. It made me wonder if girls need a different pair of shoes for every outfit. What the fuck, no wonder mom and dad had two huge walk-in closets in their room.
" Ready" I murmured,after Julie was done clipping the little sprigs of braided hair together behind Andie's head.I was starving and we needed to get going. I had two gossiping shewolves to punish for spreading lies about their Alpha and Luna and we needed to take those shirts to my lab in Juneau.
" All done" Julie chimed, smiling at Andie's reflection through the bathroom mirror.
" I like it, thank you."Andie murmured, turning her head from side to side, checking out Julie's handy work.
" You're welcome."
" Y'all ready?" I smiled and extended my hand beckoning my girl over to me " come sweetheart "
Andie nodded and strolled towards me placing her hand in mine, zapping me with that little tingling current that seems to be a lot stronger this morning.
Making me wonder if it's because Andie is growing founder of me or perhaps it's because we spent the night together.I'm hoping it's the former ,but everyone knows the more time a mated couple spend together the bond grows stronger. Which would be great if Andie could feel the bond also. However as it is now, I'm the only one falling head over heels in love with my beautiful little teenage mate.
We sauntered on down to the formal dining room on the main floor of the pack house, where my dad had ask us to meet him. I wasn't a bit surprised when I swung the door open to see Skyler and Brandy's family setting around the table with mine.
Actually it's not uncommon for our families to eat together. After all Skyler's dad was my dad's Beta and Brandy's dad was his Gamma.
We all live together in the pack house,a bit separate though. The Alpha's quarters are on the top floor, with the Beta and Gamma quarters on each side like separate condominiums flanking the pack house. Each having there own separate spaces,with four bedrooms each with an en suit bathroom,a living room,dining room,laundry room,and kitchen.
The center of the pack house has the event hall, a large main dining room, an industrial kitchen,thirty guest bedrooms and several recreation areas like the kids game room, my dad's private billiards room, an indoor swimming pool, my office, Skyler's office and my future Gamma's office.
My Gamma needs to be extremely intelligent with a sharp mind. He or she must be an ace with complex analysis and statistics and most of all they have to be willing to pledge their loyalty to me and the pack.
Gamma Blake is an economic wizard highly intelligent and strategic, he pledged his loyalty to my father when my father became Alpha. And Just like my father and Skyler's, Gamma Blake has also agreed to stick around for the next couple of years to help train my new Gamma.
However I'm sure he was hoping I would pick Brandy for that position. But like I said,the man is highly intelligent he knows as well as I do, that Brandy is a dumb ass and could never do what's required to be a good Gamma.
Actually I have already chosen my Gamma, my cousin Sam, she's my dad's sisters daughter. A brilliant young woman who works as my mining project manager and does mining consulting work on the side.
Usually women aren't chosen for top ranking officers in a pack,especially if their not mated. The reason being that she could find her mate in a different pack and carry secret information about her former pack with her.
Fortunately I don't need to worry about that with Sam. She has already found her mate, he's an exploration Geologist and already a member of our pack.They have already agreed to move from their current three bedroom two bath home in town to the Gamma quarters in the pack house.Gamma Black has also agreed to move into Sam and Hayden's current house until their new house is finished, making the transition simple.
Eventually Gamma Black along with my parents and Skyler's parents will move into the subdivision that mine and Skyler's grandparents live in. It's on the outskirts of town by the park,a gated community with a private lake and community building. Three new , four bedroom houses have already been constructed for them. The only thing left to do is for my mom, Skyler's mom and Gamma Blake's wife to pick their cabinets, countertops,flooring, lighting, and paint colors.
Sam has agreed to take on the responsibility of being my gamma. However she's at a job site right now and we can't schedule her ceremony until she gets back. So Gamma Blake is still acting as the packs Gamma at the moment. Meaning I still need to put up with Brandy's shit for the time being.
"Morning Zack " my dad greeted, "Have a seat" he murmured, tilting his head towards the head of the table where he used to sit.
It took me a moment to comprehend why he and mom had both moved further down the table. Then it dawned on me,it was because I was Alpha now. Not only had my parents moved Skyler's had too. Skyler was now setting at the opposite end of the table where his dad used to sit and his parents had also shifted down the table.
Feeling a bit awkward, but knowing it's my rightful place I lead Andie to the seat on the right hand side of the table next to the head seat.The place my mom used to occupy beside my dad.
I pulled the chair out for her to set down and took the seat at the head of the table as expected of me to do. Then just as my ass hit the seat my dad was talking I spun my head around in his direction,to give him my full attention. Even though what he was saying I already knew.
"Zack, your mom informed me about what happened to Penny yesterday. Now I want you to remember you and Skyler aren't alone. We are all here to help you in anyway we can."
" Thank you, but right now the only leads we have is the evidence we collected from the cave yesterday. Skyler is going to take the DNA evidence down to the morgue for Doctor Henderson and I'm going to take one of those shirts down to my lab in Juneau to see what Jessica can find out about the fabric." Then remembered one more thing. " So mom talked to Penny this morning?" I asked to make sure Penny was in the pack house.
I didn't know when Skyler had scheduled his meeting with her but if she's here this morning he can talk to her while I punish Brandy and her gossiping friend for talking shit about their Alpha and future Luna.
What they said may not sound like a big deal to a human. But to a werewolf having a true mated couple as their Alpha and Luna is considered a blessing for the whole pack from the Moon Goddess herself. Furthermore the jab wasn't just directed at me and Andie. It involved my dad and Alpha Lucius, suggesting that they were scheming behind the scenes to keep our pure Alpha bloodline going. Which would grantee the strongest Alpha for the next generation to lead the Starlight Pack. If other packs got that in their head it could cause problems between our packs. Other Alpha's could possibly accuse our dad's of cheating them out of a pure blooded Alpha mate to strengthen their pack.
"Yes, she and Robin ask me if they could trade shifts, something about Robin's checkup had been rescheduled for today. You know she's pregnant right?" My mom rambled absentmindedly, while occasionally pointing her fork in my direction like a school teacher with a wooden pointer.
" That's good, there's a few more questions we need to ask her." I nodded towards my mom, then called to my Beta to get his attention on me instead of the pancakes in his plate "Skyler, will you meet with Penny this morning while I speak to Brandy and her friend in my office this morning?" I ask, in an official tone, making sure everyone at the table knew Brandy was on my shit list this morning.
" Sure" Skyler mumbled,swallowing a mouth full of pancakes and adding " I'll mind link her now, I'm almost finished anyway."
" Good,"I said to Skyler, then turned to face Brandy calling out her name sternly demanding her attention."Brandy, I want you to go ahead and mind link that friend of yours and have her come to the pack house now."
"Geez Zack, she's at work right now." Brandy grumbled, rolling her fucking eyes at me.
Gamma Blake's eyebrows shot up, obviously at Brandy's disrespect and my dad shot me a side glance.
" That wasn't a request Brandy that was an order, do it now." I demanded releasing a touch of my Alpha aura.
She flinched and lowered her head immediately murmured " yes Alpha" and started mind linking her gossiping ass girlfriend.
'You mind telling me what this is all about.' My dad ask in my head, while everyone else just stared at me in disbelief.
I sighed " Well I guess everyone here should know why I'm going to punish Brandy and her friend. Yesterday at the parade Brandy and another girl that I don't know was maliciously spreading lies.Not only about her Alpha and future Luna but also about her previous Alpha and the Alpha of the Silver Moon Pack." I stated,projecting my best Alpha face as I glanced around the table at the shocked expressions on everyone's face.
Even my dad had a sour look, before he quickly gathered his composure.
