The Alpha’s Den

Mate

‘Ooooo you’re not going to believe this Izzy !!! Mate mate mate !!’ Mags is wagging her tail howling uncontrollably .

‘ mags no no no no!!! Calm down we have to not let it be known !! ‘

‘ maybe we should just kiss him look at those beautiful hazel eyes mmmm .. maybe he could be our first right in the bathroom bend us over and ..’

‘MAGS NOOOO’

“Who the hell are you and why are you starring at me “ he grumbles out husky almost but angry .he crotches down in the aisle to look closer at me .

Cole clears his throat in an obviously aggravated way

“ if you don’t mind going to your own aisle big boy this one is clearly full .. and maybe don’t talk to my brother “

My mate stares at him for a moment then at Atticus then to me .

“I was talking to the small one by the window not your go..”

“ AND THAT WOULD BE MY BROTHER” Cole stands up pissed as hell wolf nearly out growling at my mate .

“w..wa .. WAIT” I manage to get out a little louder than expected and I blush at the people who glance my way . Atticus leans back looking at me with a smirk clearly amused to see how this is going to go .

“ Shut up Israel … I’m dealing with a situation here” he says through gritted teeth .

I look at my mate who c***s his head to the side starring at me even more confused .

“Can this man not talk for himself .. he’s going to alpha school after all .. “

“He doesn’t talk to brutes with no brain who will be kicked out within the first 10 days when they make their first cuts “ Cole says blatantly. Rolling his eyes he sits back down .

“ listen here MUTT I’ll be sure to remember that when you end up in a differnt category .. and if short stack over there makes it to the actual academy sessions I’ll make sure to .. greet him personally “ he grumbles and goes to his seat not before giving me a death glare.

‘ oh my isn’t he a steam boat ..I would lick him alll day long he can boss us around and.’

Mags stop it !! Our mate wants to kill us!!! He hates us ugh !

“ So you two make friends very well I see “ Atticus chuckles . Cole grumbles rolling his eyes and looks at me with a concerned look . He sighs over the top then turns to face Atticus . Oh boy

“Alright .. we could use .. an associate .. I’m Cole and this is Israel “ he grumbles clearly unpleased to have to make a friend . Atticus grins leaning in close .

“You know what’s great about us all being from all over the place is you never know if someone has a certain skill set or a certain witch as an aunt .. that you just so happen to live with for the last week and just so happen to see a certain person not that long ago co..” Coles hand goes to Atticus’s mouth his other to his shirt .

“You say one more word I will kill you and throw you off the train saying you jumped and took the cowards way realizing you could not size up to anyone here “ he is whisper yelling at the poor guy . I smack Coles arm .

“You need to stop being a bully and on edge people are going to know exactly what Atticus is talking about if you keep acting over protective like that ! “ I try to reason with Cole he sighs and let’s go of our new friend .

“ Why thank you Israel ..” he bows with head being ever so gracious and jokful.

“Okay now the real question is .. is this your mate or..”

“ EWWWW no !! “ I screech Cole turns around shushing me .

“ could you please try to sound more like a man ! “ he grumbles .

“Oh so a sister .. I Have six of them so I get it .” He looks around making sure no one is listening .

“ okay so will you keep the secret “ I murmur not wanting to look up .

“ oh for sure .. I’m here to help as much as I can . I’m just here to get my ambassador section so maybe you could join my unit in that less combat training at least ..plus I love someone with a little mystery”

“ okay listen here just because you know doesn’t mean you need to start hitting on “ Cole starts but is cut off by Atticus’s laughing .

“ oh man you have me pegged on the wrong team there “ he winks at Cole and Cole goes pale . I bust up laughing at the sight . This is a beautiful start to a friendship .

“ alright so look no one can know and I just need Iz to not get kicked out .. he can stay at the bottom ranks but in no way can he get kicked out ..” Cole and Atticus start to get into the details of what it will look like .

The train is starting to slow down and the guys are jumping and yelling like idiots all around us . I stare out the window at what looks like a prison ..

“It’s called boot camp .. we have to make it here first then we go to the academy .. they want to make sure they only take the top 75% of us from here then there will be more cuts at the actually academy “ Atticus leans over whispering . I nod like I understand a single thing that’s about to happen .
