Chapter 3 - MY MATE

Jasper

I never thought I would find my mate after all this years it came to me by surprise. I have searched for them the moment I turn eighteen but over the years I have come to accept that I did not have a mate so why now.

Why did the moon goodness give me a mate now when I have yearn for a mate as long as I can remember. I never expected that the day I come to the human city for a meeting I would find my mate. Of all places this is the only place I never thought my mate would reside.

We are werewolves so off course it never occur to me that I will be paired with with someone who was not my kind. So it never cross my mate that I should search the human city.

I was shocked when I walked in that restaurant looking at young man who is supposed to be my mate.

______flashback______

I was on my way to a meeting which are held every year in a human city. It was agreed upon that the meeting will not be held in any of our packs since we like them to be private and also humans will not suspect anything they will just assume that they are normal business meetings since to them we do not exist.

Some humans have become our enemy over the years those kinds of human we call them hunters. Hunters are humans who have nothing to do with their lives so they begun to stalk us werewolves and kill our kind for a living.

I got settled in at a very luxurious hotel which is what I like. I made my way to where the meeting was being held I could tell that It was going to be a boring meeting but there is nothing I could do I have to attend this gathering for a few more days then I could go home.

I didn't want to be here in the first place but I was forced by my Beta to come to this yearly gathering since I always send him instead of me cause I find them pointless and a waste of time but this time he instead I should get out of the pack for a change and see new places so I agree since the last time I left the pack was when I was searching for my other half.

We were in our last day of meeting so far everything went well and they proved me wrong this meetings turn out to be meaningful than I thought it would cause I meet new Alphas from different packs We made partnership. This will make our pack more strong by having this partnership.

For the past week we have been here my wolf have been restless and anxious I tried asking him what was up and didn't have any answer either he just said something big is going to happen. I don't think it's something I should be worried about I think it's just Max being Max.

After the conference was over we said good bye to each other. I walked outside to ease the restless of my wolf being let out and go for a run calms us down but we were in the city with no woods in sight I figured we should take the best option we have.

I was walking with no destination in mind I just wanted to explore the city then I stopped in my track when I smelled the most amazing smell I ever smelled I knew it was coming from my mate.

Finally I have found them. I can't believe this whole time my mate have been here If I just looked beyond my horizon I would have found them but who would have thought my mate would be in this part of the world.

I started to follow where the delicious smell was coming from and It lead me to what seemed to be a local restaurant. I went inside the restaurant ready to claim our mate to my surprise a young man was the one who was producing that heavenly smell, I turn around looking at the people in the restaurant searching that maybe I may have made a mistake but no it was the young man who is my mate.

The reality started to sink in that I am mated to a male human. The most feared Alpha in the whole of the UK is mated to a male human that alone is unheard off. In our history no Alpha has ever been mated to a male human before.

"Mate" My Wolf screamed.

He for sure he didn't care by his excitement he was pacing with joy chanting mate while I on the other hand I was in disbelieve that this is really our mate.

There he stood my fucking mate who was way too thin and looked like he hadn't eaten enough for a long time his face was smooth I will tell you that and had a smile that brighten the whole room.He looked so innocent with curiosity in his sparkling eyes but everything else about him was wrong.

I took a sit on the nearest table and call for a waiter I knew he is the only waiter who is serving people so he will come and serve me which will give me an opportunity to observe him up close.

As I waited for him to come and serve my table I took time to contemplate on my new finding for starters my mate is a fucking male. Why did the moon goddess punish me like this all I wanted was a beautiful woman. A she wolf who would rule beside me and who will carry our pups. A Luna who will care and show love to our pack but now am stuck with a male human for a mate.

The whole time I kept studying him and off course my wolf decided to take over I kept mind linking him that he will scare him away with his eyes but he didn't care he just wanted to be with his mate.

I was so occupied that I didn't hear him approach my table. He asked what I wanted to eat I proceed to tell him what I wanted to eat and my wolf decided it was time to take over. Then max showed his true colours by asking if he could have the waiter for dessert.

The waiter replied that he do not sell I could tell it made my wolf mad the waiter seemingly misinterpreted what my wolf even I misunderstood what he was trying to say so he decided to just eat the food we ordered then proceed in telling the waiter to sit with us which I did not agree with.

My wolf proceeded to clarify the misunderstanding which did not go well either. I did not like their conversation with the male human so I stopped listening to them I then mind link my beta to get a sense were things are right now with the pack.

After everything we returned to the pack and me and my wolf were in the middle of an argument the moment we reached the pack it was about the human.

"I don't know what you see in that skinny human We could have any she wolf we want why do you keep insisting that you want that human." I mind linked him.

"I don't care what you do all I want it to have my mate with me" My wolf said.

"We need someone who is strong to rule beside us not some malnourished male human" I tried to reason with him again.

"You know you can't keep living in the past you need to let go of the past what happen to your parents was an accident you know that. I know why you are being reluctant but we need our mate beside us." I get where he is coming from but I can not just forget what the humans have done to our pack and accept our mate like nothing happen.

"We have always wanted a mate and we waited for our mate for years now we found our mate why can't you accept him the way he is. Did you see how cute he is also don't forget those lips and hips of his they were so tempting. Our mate is beautiful and perfect just for us."He mind linked me off course not forgetting to show his horny side.

Me being the sane one between the both of us I answered with a logical explanation. " I am straight not gay I don't swing that way I could never imagine my self doing anything intimate with another male besides you already know I hate humans and he is no exception" I replied.

"It's hard to forget when you keep reminding me on every sentence that comes out of that mount of yours." He barked.

I decided to let this matter go and focus on a more important like dealing with the pack rouge and Hunter threats and the time I have been away, I have been traveling outside of the pack to handle some business and other Alpha matters my Beta and some of our trackers have come across foots reprints.

I was busy in my office dealing with some paper work when suddenly my mind wondered to that waiter again I don't know why. I thought of rejecting him which will be a suicide for both of me and my wolf and his mate although he doesn't know what's going on am hell sure he will also experience the pain he never felt before.

Decision

Jasper

It has been two months since we saw that gay waiter and ever then Max behaviour towards me has changed even though he is my wolf he sees me as an enemy. I don't know when will he get it that we don't need a gay human hence I made my mind not to pursue that thing.

I will save our self from this mismatch by going my own way not following what the goddess has chosen for us. For sure I do not care about him so am not going to pretend and act like I care cause I don't.

As for my Wolf Max I know he will do just fine. I have heard a lot of werewolves have survived just fine they didn't go with the mood goddess choice they choose their own mates I intend to do the same.

Am very sure that the goddess herself must have made mistake in pairing me with a man. Something went wrong somewhere because it's impossible for me to be mated to a guy because am not into guys and for sure am not gay. She must have thought I am a woman hence she mated me to a man.

I was lost in my own thought that I didn't hear anyone opening the door of my office.

"Alpha I heard that you are...Why do you have that evil look on your face. Please don't tell me you are plotting something evil that I will have to disagree with." A voice said to which I recognise is my beta Cole's voice.

We have been friends since our diaper days, he is the only member of our pack I consider a true friend.

"What! am not plotting anything I was just trying to find a way of solve my situation." I said with the most innocent look I could master but by the look in his eyes it seems like he didn't buy it.

"Jasper I know you very well so don't try to lie to me. So are you going to tell me or I should bribe max into telling me what's going on, we both know he will tell me." He threaten because he know that it always work on Max my wolf.

People may said it's hard to convince someone else's wolf to agree on matters but when it comes to Max he is always ready to trade us up for something. The last time he trades us for gardening, we had to plant vegetable seeds for our pack for two hours which I already paid some people to do the job and there was a time he made us go and single for some random child birthday party I don't remember much about it but it was brutal since we don't know how to sing.

The shame, the embarrassment I felt that day was unimaginable. Max has said he always does this to teach me a lesson to keep me on my toes but Come one am the Alpha, He also said some of the things he does are for fun for him. The Last part I agree with him most off the times he does things that I do not understand at all.

My wolf is weird and freaky.

"Hey who are you calling weird and freaky I will have you know I just like a little bit of fun and adventure is that too hard to understand." He said trying to defend himself.

"Are you listening to me." Cole said while waving this hand in front of my face looking at me with concern in his eyes.

"The thing is I found my mate but I don't know what to do." I said in one breath. Since he is my beta also my best friend I tell him everything I am not ashamed or embarrassed because I know I can trust him and he will never judge me for it.

He may be disappointed in me sometimes but gives good advice am lucky to have him as our pack second in command and he does a good job at that title.

"Wow! you finally found her am so happy for you man. What do you mean you don't know what to do can you elaborate a little because I know when you find your mate you claim them instantly it's what we do." He said looking confuses with raised eyebrows up.

" What am saying is I found my mate but they are not what I expected them to be."I said to him trying to explain the situation.

"Jasper you don't expect anything from your mate! Do you think I expected a mate like mine; no but I accepted her anyway even when am in fear for my life everyday.A mate is a gift, your other half chosen for you by the moon goddess herself " He said even when he is clearly afraid of her. Cole's mate is the opposite of him.

He is kind to people and he thinks before he voice out his opinion while his mate is known by everyone in the pack for being rude and she is far from being friendly even their two girls are afraid of her.

People who have made a joke around her have found their face first on the floor with their hands behind their back. I get where she is coming from she was one of our best trackers now she teaches young werewolves who are interested in being the pack trackers.

"What you don't understand is." I pause to take a deep breath.

"My mate is a male I found out after the Alpha's meeting on our last day in the human city he was working at some restaurant." I was taken back by his response, the expression he put on his face was terrifying to me. He looked like a father being proud of their child when something good happen to their child.

"I can't accept him I decided not to accept him as my mate." I voiced out the decision I have decided to take.

After thinking this through I have decided to not take that good for nothing human as my mate. I can't have a gay young man as my mate.

With everything has been happening lately I felt headache manifesting plus the thinking I have been doing for the hours now. I looked up and I cringe at the scene of him. He had a shocked look responding to what I have just said.

"Why!" He asked but I didn't answer him.

"He is your mate why don't want him you were meant to be together." are we though I thought to my self. the more I think about being mated to a gay man the more I come to the conclusion that I was mismatched.

"You do know am into women and I don't swing that way and what am I going to do with a male mate."Just the thought of kissing, touching even being intimate with a gay male human is unethical to me I could never imagine my self doing anything like that with him.

"You make it sound like it's a bad thing to have a male mate. You may never know what your missing out until you try it you may even like him and fall deeply in love with him ."He said trying to convince me.

"How do you know what is like to have a male mate no cause you don't have one"I argued like a small child with a glare expecting an answer.

"I may not have a mate like yours but I know What is like to have a mate. You will miss a lot if you don't accept him.Its going to be painful and you and your wolf could fall into depression." He said with a thoughtful look on his face.

"I really don't want to listen to this anymore. You know what piss off I don't want to take about this anymore." I hiss at him with so much venom I could feel my whole body vibrating with so much anger toward him. The last thing I remember was my wolf push me aside and over my body to let me come down.

"Sorry Cole for the way he spoke to you,you know he just need to come to terms with the discovery and accept our mate"He said to him.

"Its fine Max I understand am just worried about him with the decision he is willing to take because his mate is not What he wanted" I herd Cole sighed and adds.

"Oh I almost forgot to tell him about our neighbouring pack are hosting there yearly harvest party and we are invited." He said.

"I will tell him when he becomes normal don't worry about what he said he is just mad because He can't make that bitch as our mate"Then I herd the door being opened then closed.

After he had left Max my wolf walked what seemed like outside cause i could feel the wind.He sat down on the chair and let out a sigh the whole time I felt like a child being scolded by their mother and have been put on time out.

We sat on the chair for what seemed like hours then he block his silence.

"Have you thought on what your decision will be. Am talking about a decision that will not affect me in anyway"He quickly added leaving no argument.

I cringe at the trace of hate I detected in his voice.

I know an Alpha is nothing without their mate but I can never turn myself gay for species I hate the most.

Humans.
