{Alpha Brandon}
I know I am going to have to go and face Josiah soon. I figured giving him some time down there alone would give him time to think about how serious this is. Tilden asked what I planned on doing about Josiah and I have no clue yet. I've known him since we were little and I don't want to ban him from our pack and I sure as hell don't want to have him executed but I know he needs to be punished. My mind is all over the place right now with this sh*t and worrying about doing or saying something stupid on my date with Georgia that I can't sleep. I got up from my bed and walked out onto the balcony. I stared out into the packland and sighed. I've always been looked at like a bad boy who's been laid more times than he can count and parties like there's no tomorrow but now that she knows the truth, what if she thinks I am just some little b*tch Alpha who's scared of being intimate? What if it's going through her head that the only way I can get it up is just imagining her doing dirty things with me? What if she does accept me as her mate and when the time comes for us to mate and I make a fool of myself by not knowing what to do? What am I going to do if she rejects me? I want to spend the rest of my life with that Mesmerizing Omega by my side as my Luna. I want to spend the rest of my life showing her how much I love her and I want to spend the rest of my life worshiping her as she deserves. She truly is a Mesmerizing she-wolf and I am thanking the goddess for giving me enough strength to resist the temptation of sleeping around. I wish I could go back and try to stop Tilden and Josiah from it but I know I can't and I am somewhat responsible for the way they have behaved. If I had put strict rules down as my father did, maybe just maybe Josiah wouldn't be sitting in our dungeon right now. I couldn't take it anymore. I had to get out of the packhouse and go for a run and let Braiden out. I put on a pair of shirts and headed down to the trail that leads into the field. I stripped out of my shorts and shifted. Braiden took off to the clearing. He ran for a while through the woods and then he went back to the field. Braiden was taking a drink from the stream when we heard a twig snap in the distance. He let out a low growl and turned in the direction the sound came from. We locked eyes on the most beautiful wolf. Skye came out of the shadows and lowered her head. Braiden huffed at her and lifted her head. He is annoyed that they can't communicate yet and is trying to give Georgia the time she needs but he is growing impatient. Skye slowly walks up to us and brushes against us as she walked to the stream. Braiden let out a growl and I knew what he wanted to do. I fought with him about not mounting her and taking what was his. I won thankfully. I had to argue that she would reject us if he did. He gave me control and I shifted back. I tried to cover myself as soon as I did but I heard Skye seductively growl and I knew she saw everything. She walked around me slowly like she was stalking prey and I ended up having to command her to stop. Even though I wouldn't have minded her doing what she wanted to do, I didn't want Skye to do something Georgia wouldn't be ok with. I ran over to the tree Braiden dropped my shorts behind and quickly put them on. I walked over to Skye and sat down next to her. She is a beautiful wolf. Even under the moonlight, her fur looks almost gold. She has beautiful golden brown eyes and her fur looks like it is soft. I reached out and ran my hand down her jaw and she turned her head, closed her eyes, and purred. I waited for her to open her eyes and when she did I just stared into them. She got close to my face and licked my cheek. She turned and ran off. I could tell Georgia was fighting Skye for control while looking into her eyes and her taking off, told me she won the fight between them. If she would have shifted and tried to kiss me or anything in the moment, I would have stopped her. I want her to have a clear head and know for sure what she wants before anything happens and I don't want her to feel like I am expecting her to do something when I brush my hand against her cheek, ask her out to dinner, or hug her because I don't expect anything in return. I just want to show her I am a good guy and my reputation is just rumors. I got up and headed back to the packhouse. As I was walking out of the woods to the tail, Georgia walked up to me and apologized for taking off. I told her there was no need to apologize and she told me she was fighting hard to keep Skye in line and was fighting the urge to kiss me. I told her it was ok and that I wouldn't have let her do anything I knew she wasn't sure she really wanted to do. She asked how I knew she didn't really want to kiss me and I told her because if she really wanted to, she wouldn't have had to fight the urge to do it. She put her head down and I lifted her chin and told her not to do that to herself. I told her I wasn't upset with her for needing time and I wasn't upset that she was unsure of kissing me. I explained to her I wanted her to have a clear head when she made any type of decision when it comes to me and she smiled and said thank you. I went to hug her and I was surprised when her lips connected with mine. She pulled back quickly and blushed. I asked if she meant to do that and she nodded. I asked if she was sure it was something she wanted to do and if she felt like she had to do it.
"Brandon, I wanted to kiss you. I didn't do it because I felt like I had to or felt like it's what you wanted me to do. I promise you I wanted to kiss you. I wanted to see how I felt doing it." She says.
"Well, how do you feel?"
"I don't think I should go into detail on how I feel just yet but maybe we can talk about it on our date. That is if you still want to go?" She asked.
"Of course I do, Georgia. I am looking forward to this conversation on our date. I must return to my room now so I can get a few hours of beauty sleep."
She smiled as I kissed her hand and I headed back to the packhouse. I wasn't going to admit this to her but I already know how she felt kissing me. She enjoyed that kiss just as much as I did.
