The Unloved Female Alpha

Taking His Time - 10

I begrudgingly left my room, making my way down the stairs, slowly as possible, Jade was howling and jumping like a rabid dog whom I had to threaten yet again to calm down or I'd make her calm down.

I could hear hundreds of voices and knew everyone who RSVP'd had shown up, as I reached the bottom of the stair case, it hit me, Siberian Fir and the smell of freshly mown grass, it engulfed me. Quickly scanning the room my eyes fell on an unknown face, a tall sexy black man with beautiful dreads pulled back in braids away from his face and into a ponytail at the back of his neck.

-Mate Mate Mate , He is here!

Fuck, I thought, I noticed him stiffen, before he could turn to look for me I bolted out the French doors towards the gardens, I knew he would come, he would find me, but I needed to compose myself, I need to be in control and not allow the mate bond to destroy my solitude.

Minutes passed and felt like hours, and I felt the energy in the air shift, a low primal growl came from behind me, I turned to find a pair of chocolate eyes staring at me, 'Mine' I heard, a whisper, but I heard it none the less.

'Took you long enough' I said trying to sound annoyed at having been kept waiting. 'My apologies love, I was delayed, It will never happen again' he said.

'and Your name is?' I asked, "James Black love, Alpha of the Black Moon pack and you are?' he questioned. Before I could reply we were stopped by another familiar voice, 'Are you ok sweetie?' my uncle Gerald asked. 'Yes sir, Alpha James here of Black Moon and I are gettint acquainted' I replied never breaking the young Alpha's gaze. 'Ok darling, Alpha, I trust my princess is in good hands' he said looking between the Alpha and I. 'Of course sir, I will be personally responsible for her safety tonight and for eternity' I heard him say to the Beta, and with a nod my uncle strolled inside the pack house.

'He's our Beta' I said, 'Daughter of a Beta, lovely, here I was petrified I'd end up the mate of your Alpha's crazy daughter' he said. He thought he'd be mated to my sister? What the hell, I was pretty sure everyone knew my sister met her mate when she turned seventeen, Gary, our best tracker found her when he turned eighteen, it made sense, he was always around while we were growing up, threatening to rip the limbs off anyone who got to close to her.

'Would you like me to show you around our pack house?' I asked. 'That would be lovely, but as long as I am with you, you could show me your sewers and I'd be happy' he said. I moved to walk past him when he caught my waist, pulling me into him, his head in the crook of my neck, taking in my scent deeply, his mouth grazed my marking spot sending fireworks throughout my body and making my panties wet instantly.

'Maybe we should just go to my room and talk some' I suggested. 'If that is what you want my love, lead the way'.

I led him through the kitchen towards our back staircase, but chose to take the elevator to get there quicker. We stepped inside and the smell Siberian fir surrounded me, I felt the Alpha's arms slide around my waist, I turned to face him and he looked as if he could devour me, 'You're perfect love' He whispered, his voice alone making a puddle in my not so secret Victoria's.

We exited on the fourth floor, and I led him to my room, I had never brought a man here before, but he is my mate and I need him and to be alone with him I thought as we walked in, me locking the door behind us.
