Alpha and I

Catch Up

    I sit on my new laptop working on all my homework I had due. Rita had tried to get me to go eat supper with everyone, but I just wanted to work on homework and be away from the crazy world I now knew even better than the day before. 

    I am finishing up my anatomy assignment that I missed out on doing with the class the other day, since I am now prisoner. I am concentrating so deeply that I barely noticed the door unlock an open. I look up to see Dean, wearing black shorts and no shirt. He is breathing deeply like he just got back from a run, or a fight. What is with wolves and no shirts these days? 

    I look back down at my assignment and pretend he isn't there. I hear him sigh and walk over to the fridge and pull out a water bottle and the plate of sandwiches that I never ate for lunch. He set the plate down and turned on the TV guide to see what was playing. 

    "Eat," he grunted out.

    I glare at him through my peripherals, "I was watching something."

    He chuckles, "I watch you all the time and you always run off, so I guess we are even."

    Who the hell does he think he is?! Oh yeah, just an alpha werewolf who eats little girls like me for breakfast. Not really though, he actually likes a plate of bacon and fried eggs with toast. Now look at me, already remembering his order and I haven't even been here a week. Maybe this whole mate thing is real after all.

    I keep working on my assignment when he growl again, "You need to eat."

    "Okay DAD!" I holler at him.

    He chuckles, "Yeah babe, I'll make you call me daddy."

    I look at him mortified, "Oh and did that blonde slut call you that as well?"

    He stops laughing and turned the channel to the new Avengers Infinity. "At least you have good taste in movies."

    He looks at me an smiles, "Oh yeah? You like marvel?"

   "If you don't like marvel, are you even watching movies?" I throw back.

    He snorts, "I told you, my perfect mate."

    I sigh and put down my laptop. I grab a sandwich before taking a bite and chewing while I look at him. I assess his every facial feature. The way his jaw clenches when his thought's cross his mind, the way his black eyebrows arch downwards in deep thought most of the day, and the way his abs always are apparent, even when sitting down. God, save me now before I actually fall for this bastard.

    "I got you a job by the way," he states very plainly. I can tell he isn't thrilled with the idea though.    

    My eyes widen and I squeal before taking another bite and swallowing, "Doing what?"

    He looks at me with a smile on his face, his gold eyes kindly gazing down at me, "You can help the nurses and doctors with whatever they need. They said they would be more than happy to have you helping around."

    He stops and looks at me before putting a hand around the small of my back, "Just don't work too hard, okay? If you need a break or a day off, you can do whatever you want around here."

    I look at him dumbfounded, "Are my ears bleeding, or did my kidnapper just say I could do whatever I wanted?"

    He groans and put his face in his hands before wiping them through his hair, "Melanie, I hope you can really stop looking at me as your kidnapper. I couldn't help it, I wanted you to go home and make the choice yourself, but as soon as I let you go my wolf was so angry with me. He wanted to get you himself all over again and bring you back here! As soon as you crossed that border I could feel my pack and Alpha power weaken.

    "This is why you are so important to me, you are so special and you just can't seem to get it through your thick skull."

    I shake my head, "Then how come as soon as you got me you slept with the first girl who asked? Like it didn't even matter how it might make me feel! Mentally and physically that is. If I could say anything, I'd say it sounds like I am being used."

    His gaze deepens on me, "Hell I may never even forgive myself Mel, you have to understand that when I got you, I didn't know what I had. I wanted to push you away and push me away from you as well, but unfortunately my plan didn't even come close to working because no matter how hard I try I can't keep away from you. Hell, I am about to attack my sister out of jealousy because you love her more than me."

    I gasp out of shock, "You would attack your own sister?!"

    He chuckles, "I think that raging red head is perfectly capable of being the most evil girl I have ever known? Do you realize Rita put beetles in my cocoa puffs when I was only eight years old and she only twelve?! She is more crazy than me, just you wait an see," he looks at me wide eyes with a big grin on his face and chuckles deeply.

    "I believe you," I laugh along before going silent again. 

    He frowns as well and narrows those shining topaz eyes down on my face, "What is wrong?"

    I shake me head, "I feel close to you, I do; but every time I look at you, or think of you....all I see is her and you together..."

    He nods his head silently, I see his fist ball up to his side before he sighs loudly and releases his hand and grabs my hand, "Then don't forget Mel, remember what an i***t I can be, and know that I am and always will be yours. Nothing will ever change that and you have always been the one I wanted despite my actions and words. Learn to forgive me Melanie. That is my only hope that I am seeing here."

    His eyes are pleading with me and I feel so sad for him, but why should I feel sad for him of all people? I shake my head as his eyes widen, and his head jerks up to look at me harder.

    "I can't forget and I probably never will, but I don't see a life where I don't forgive you. So why not start trying now."

    His face and body muscles relax as he wraps his arms around my entire body, the skin that is touching his shoots out sparks and warmth. "What is that?" I mumble against his chest.

    He laughs deeply before answering me, "Its my pheromones mixing with yours."

    I groan loudly, "You have got to be freaking kidding me! Ugh what sorcery is this."

    He chuckles louder this time, but doesn't let go yet before releasing me and explaining, "It is how you know I am your mate, our hormones react together and create fireworks babe, what can I say."

    He isn't asking a question, he is stating this all so matter of fact like, but I am calling bullshit. "I know that wasn't fireworks Dean."

    He smiles, "No, but in my eyes they are."

    I snort, "Keep playing me these lines Shakespeare!"

    He rolls his eyes and flicks his hand away towards me, which makes me slap it playfully away and he shouts out, "Hey! Watch the abuse woman!"

    I snort, "Oh please!"

    He smiles at me and looks in to my eyes before carefully placing his hand on my right cheek. Was this happening right now? He leans forward, but the thing is, I am leaning in too. I feel the sparks crush against my lips and I feel his tongue finding his way to mine, as he fights for dominance. I feel his hands guide me down into the couch as he climbs on top of my sinking frame. His hand sliding up and down my upper thigh before I break from him to come up for air. 

    He laughs and pushed himself off of me, "My wolf almost just marked you."

    I scrunch my brows together in confusion at him, "What? Your wolf? Mark me?"

    He laughs yet again, embracing me in his ever so warm bear hugs, or should I call them wolf hugs? Hm, just a thought for later. 

    "Oh babe, there is so much you have to learn about our world."

    I smile at his words, "Our world?"

    He nods, "Yep, what is mine is yours babe," he mumbles into my chest. 

    "What does it mean to mark me?" I ask as sweetly as possible, hoping he'd answer me honestly. 

    He groans before looking up at me and sitting up straight in his seat. He places an arm around me before continuing, "I have an inner wolf, it is kind of like my wolf conscience. He senses our bond and led me to you through your scent and his instincts which radiate throughout me like a magical being. 

   "Although marking a mate is something completely different, especially when the mate is human. If my wolf marks you then you will feel the mate bond ten times what you feel right now. You will become stronger and be able to mind link with me and once you officially gain Luna title and officially join the pack...then your mind link will channel through the pack."

    Holy s**t, this all goes so much deeper than I realized. If this was possible, why didn't he do it sooner so I could be his mate faster? Is it possible that he really was telling the whole truth, he really wants all of this to be my choice in his own screwed up possessively sexy way. Great, now I am hooked.

    "Does it hurt?"    

    He looks at me with a stoned expression and shakes his head, "It would never hurt with me doing it."

    I nod my head and look at him with the same stone cold expression, "Well, do it then. I want to feel what you feel, I am tired of being out of the loop with all of this. If you are telling the truth then do it."

    He looks away before looking back in my eyes, "I am being completely honest with you and I won't do it if you think that all the consequences I spoke of won't happen."

    I laugh at his words which make his eyes start to turn the dark black shade I've grown used to, "None of those predicaments was a consequence, not one."

    I smile wide as he grabs me fast with both hands wrapping around my waist and presses his lips against mine. I feel his bite on my bottom lip, his hands trailing my waist and thigh, but careful not to go too far over the edge. His kisses and nibbles trail down to the crook of my neck making me feel sensitive between my legs. I hear a deep rumble and growl escape from his chest as I feel a sharp pain to the left side of my neck, it was like a burning fire had spread through me veins.

    I moan lightly, I felt a jolt of warmth spread through my like my own form of heroine. I breathe deeply with my eyes closed as he releases his fangs from their protrusion. 

    I was not in pain, but I felt warm and safe, tangled with a harmonious strand of DNA. I feel his tongue licking the wound and cleaning the punctures. He looks up and smiled at me, "Never seen a mark look so gorgeous on woman, let alone human."

    I giggle at his try of a compliment, "I thought there was a mind link?"

    He nods his head, "There is."

    Oh crap, so hear can hear my thoughts now?

    Yep, and I can speak to you to. As long as you don' t have your link blocked like I do frequently.

    "That's not fair! Why can I not talk in your head, but you can talk in mine?!"

    He chuckles at my childish expression and pinches my puffed out lower lip, "You can block yours too lil pup, you'll learn eventually. I won't ever block you from speaking to me though. Now you are going to regret it, huh?"

    He gives me a sly sneaky smile as I shake my head, "That was your plan all along, huh?"

    He shakes his head, "Not exactly, it was always my plan to mark you, but everything that comes with it is just that."

    Great, how things change so quickly.
