Zeus is on edge, has been for about two hours now, unfortunately, that happens to be the time I was to train the new members of the pack. Normally my dad would be training them as he's the head warrior and trainer but he's taken mom on a trip for her birthday so am stuck doing it.
The only reason I'm doing this because my dad asked me to. I have no interest in being around these people longer than necessary. The training consist of a thirty mile run through the forest and around the borders and back to the training grounds, which's about a quarter-mile into the forest from the packed house. There's a huge clearing where I do training, my dad would have used the backyard. There is a twenty minutes cooling down and stretching station follow by combat training in their human form than the same in their wolf form. When training was done all of them were battered and bloody. We wrapped things up about ten minutes ago and Zeus was still hitching for a fight.
Despite his bad temper Zeus doesn't really like fighting, he's much too lazy. He does, however, like to kill so he loves hunting. Just now in training, it took everything in me to keep him under control, and even then I couldn't fully control him. Hence the beating the pack members took.
>Zeus, knock it off, you're giving me a headache, What's got you riled up anyway?.
>She's close by, I can feel her, she is calling out to me.
>She, she who.
>Our mate.
>Our what! I don't want or need a fucking mate. I have to put up with enough people as it is. No not happening.
>So we agree, we will reject them if it comes to that but no mate.
>You don't want a mate, Zeus.
>NO!
Apparently, that was the end of the conversation as Zeus shout himself off from me. I took the long way home through the forest making sure I wouldn't run into anyone. I was just about to climb the stairs to go take a shower when I heard footsteps approaching my house.
That son of a bitch. I knew there was a reason I hated that bastard, other than the fact that he makes sliced bread look like Albert Einstein. At least now I know why Zeus doesn't want to mate her. Our mate is an alpha and Zeus Fancy's himself one. A mating between whoever the mystery alpha lady is would never work. She smell might find though.
I went to the door and opened it as they make their way up the tail to the front of the house. Cade came into view first and his face lit up when he saw me.
Asshole.
"Thank you for bringing the lady all this way Alpha. That will be all, Alpha Sutton you may come in". Fuck me, of all the woman in the world that I could have been a mate to it, had to be the one everyone refers to as a nightmare dress like a daydream and an alpha at that. I hate alphas.
I probably could have said that with a little less disdain*** but I so love winding him up, he's like a damn jack in the box. It helps that Alpha wolves are nothing but grease monkeys. A whole lot of bronze and no brains at least, not this one. You just have to know the right bottom to push and there like a Rabbit-dog whose only purpose is to kill. Usually, it's about respect or lack thereof, and from the way, Cade was shaking am guessing he didn't like me ordering him away. Oh well.
"Let's leave the drama for another time alpha. 'Alpha Sutton place comes in". I made sure that my face was blank of any emotions and held the door open for her while Cade grumbles his way out of my sight.
Before I even had the lock flipped Barbie death storm had me trapped against the door. Like seriously. I rolled my eyes down at her, why did they all have to be the possessive son of bitches.
"You smell good mate". Yeah right
"I smell like shit and wet dog but whatever floats your boat".
She looked a little confused by my response, see this is why I don't like people some are just plain crazy. Who goes around sniffing people. Stepping around her I went to the kitchen and grabbed two beers. Alpha Sutton was the only female Alpha on the continent and most say it has something to do with her blood lust. Maybe she had something to prove, not so now that she's become one of the most feared and ruthless alpha in North American.
I personally think it has something to do with the way she looks. Alpha Sutton was about five-eight with long blonde hair and bright blue eyes. Her skin was flawless and she had curves in all the right places. She would be every man's dream including mine if I was looking for a dream or a complete lunatic. I want nothing to do with her least of all mate her I also sure as hell did want to offend especially since Zeus has locked himself off from me. They look at her and all they see is a newborn puppy when in truth she's the hound that guard's the gates of hell.
"You don't seem pleased to see me mate, you wolf is shooting me out". Her voice was neutral but I wasn't fooled.
Here goes nothing, I handed her the beer and she shocks her head no. "If it's any consolation Zeus shouting me out too Alpha Sutton".
"Sutton mate, you call me Sutton". I think she could tell something was up she was on one side of the room and I was on the other and she has yet to make a move towards me, her face wore a blank expression but her eyes told a million stories and right now there was a longing in them. It looked out of place on her and I found myself wanting to chase it away. What the fuck, where the hell did that come from. Shaking the thought away I motion for her to sit. She continued standing so I took a seat on one of the singles, tip the bottle to my head and finish the bottle in one go.
"Zeus and I don't want or need a mate so I give you the go head to reject me or if you'd like I'll do it".
