my friend the alpha

Mate-enemies

"What on earth do you thing you are doing, you have no right to drag me around to where ever you want. Nor to shove me into your fancy little car. You can't control me and I'm going to leave this town and all memories of you..."

I pull her in close and slam my lips against hers. Instantly I feel the shock and tingles of our matebond spread out across me and she melts into my arms. It was a perfect moment, one I have waited for all my life. But then it was over as

She shoved me off of her and pulled her self to the far other side of the car grabbing at her lips while she did. her expression chained from pissed off to confusion to joy to pissed off again in a matter of seconds. I knew I had to tread lightly if I was going to keep her from rejecting me and skipping town.

"I'm sorry Mae, I shouldn't have done that. I've wanted to my whole life and when I finally find out you are indeed my mate I couldn't help myself. I know alot has happened over the last few years but if nothing else please believe me; I never knew your mothers intentions until my dad mindlinked me when we headed to the principals office."

She just sat there stareing at me. I didn't know what to do. Do i comfort her. Do I stay quiet and let her lead where this goes. Do I just mark her right now, forcing her to stay with me until we figure things out and potentially causing her to hate me more. It felt like an eternity but I sat in the car silent just watching as she seemed to have an inner tormoil with herself.

Finally she spoke up.

"I want to run."

Panic hit me, I didn't want to let her out of the car let along let her run off and get lost again. I tried to play dumb.

"Tomorrow is the full moon. You will have your first shift then and it will be the most amazing experience you'll ever have. It will be painful too but I will be there to help you through it if you let me."

"No I want to run now. I've already shifted before, that night... I shifted. I can't be here right now its too much I need to go to my spot to clear my head, I need to go."

"How did you shift..." Then it hit me, extreme lose and emotional trama. Losing her mom was indeed more painful for her then I had imagined.

"Can I run with you? I won't say a word I just want to know you are safe. If at any time you want me to leave you I will but I'd like to be there for you. I may have missed your first shift and all the pain that came with it that night. But please let me be there for you now..."

She pondered for a while on it and finally shook her head.

"Fine just don't say anything"

I zipped my lips and threw away the key. My heart started hammering in my chest again. She said yes! My mate is willing to stay with me at least for now. I fought to hold back the smile I wanted to plaster across my face. I came here to kick her out of my life forever and now I want nothing more the to make her stay.

We got out of the car and walked into the woods, she found a patch of tall bushes and motioned for me to turn around. I did and a few moments later I find myself falling face first into a pile of mud. She snuck up behind me and pounced on me throwing me off guard and stumbling down to the ground. She praced around at my heels clearly enjoying her brief victory but it wasn't over yet. She hadn't felt the strength of our bond in wolf form yet.

I got up, wiped my face and began taking off my tie and unbuttoning my shirt. She froze as I revealed my abs to her, a little drool dripped from her mouth and just as my belt came off she snapped her head around and took off into the forest. I quickly shifted and chased after her. I could smell her lust and torment coming from her. This was going to be a fun night, torturous but If all goes well I will come home with not only my best friend back but also my mate and my luna.

Mae's POV

I cannot believe this. Tyler is my mate! Of all the cruel things the moon godess has given me it was this curse that could do me in. I never told him but there was a time I once thought I was in love with him. I had planned to say something to him at the dance but then Jess interupted us and my mom... My mom is gone. I blamed him for it for so long, but what if he was telling the truth. Maybe he didn't know what was going on and he really did just want to make things up to me. I don't know if that would have made a difference then. I was so broken I couldn't hear anything he had to say to me them. I still am broken. I still don't know how to function in a world without her in it. And of course the moon goddess thinks adding my mate into the mix will help. This is just way too much. I mean he's an amazing kisser but a girl need more then just mouth watering lips to rescue her from the deep dark abisk.

"I want to run."

I need out of this car its making me closterphobic and if I stare at him any longer I'm going to either murder him or pounce on him. Two things I'm not sure if I really want to do right now. I agree to let him come with me, anything to get some air.

As we walked into the forest I realized in order to shift we had to undress and I suddenly became very awake of his wondering eyes and my body. I didn't want him to get any ideas so I had him turn around. Taking off my clothing I bent down to the the ground and let my wolf take over. I hadn't shifted since that night but it came easily and within a few moment I opened my eyes and I was on all fours with fur and paws stretched out before me. I could smell his desire building. Not today buddy I thought.

"But he is so delicious please can we have him"

"What the hell now you finally have something to say, Your that boy crazy already that you've given up your vow of silence for a little tail? Theres no way you are my wolf if you're going to give in to a man just like that"

"My dear I was silent for you for two years while you grieved. You didn't need me to add in on how you should feel you had enough of that on your own. Plus I knew he was our mate. What did you want me to say 'Hello dear I'm Freya and the man we blame for your mothrrs death is our mate? It was hard enough for me to function knowing that I couldn't make you deal with it too. So I morned both heatbreaks silently for the two of us, one for your mother and one for the evil mate That you would one day be forced to love again once you were of age. My hope was that by then your pain for your mother would be a little less to handle this blow better. Thank the goddess he isn't really to blame."

Freya is it, I liked it better when you were silent. how do you know he's not lying"

"His wolf will not stop begging me to get you to forgive then its sweep really. That deep husky voice begging like a little pup for his favorite toy back. This wolf is going to be so fun to toy with hes already willing to bend the earth for us."

"Who says hes going to get the chance, I haven't accepted him yet. The point of this run is to get out of my head and hear you go filling it with more junk.

"I'm sorry love, let go we will talk more later, but Mae, please think about it. It's not just your mate you'd be rejecting... Its mine too."

My wolf would be the oposite of me and be totally selfish in her priorities. She wants her mate she doesn't care about what that could do to me. What if I can't handle this. Tyler still has his back to me

and I creeped up behind him and shoved him down to the ground.

The shock on his face was priceless as he spat the mud from his mouth. I couldn't help be do a little celebratory dance in front of him reminding him whos still a bad ass and enjoying the sweet victory of finally putting him in his place. But then he looked at me with lust in his eyes and something else too, sweet and gentle care almost like... Love. He tossed his shirt on the ground and my mouth watered. Those abs... it was like seeing a whole new man. He was hot years ago, obviously I had a crush on him for a reason, but now stareing into his eyes. Seeing the gentle caution hes taking with me. The intensitity behind his actions almost sufficates me and catches me off guard. so I turned and ran.

As fast as I could I dived through trees and around bushes trying to lose him from my trail. I cant have him in my head right now. I need to focus on mom not my selfish wolf, not that yummy eight pack man of steel that I just want to lick... stop it focus were trying to lose him.

I pushed even harder til I came to the creek. slowing down I didn't hear anything around me. I found the narrow path up the side if the hill and came around some bushes to face the cliffs edge when out of now there he was. His wolf stood tall towering over me He had light grey fur but his eye were still that beautiful deep sea blue. he had small black spots down his hine legs and tail. I've never seen such a beautiful creature in my life.

How did he know this is where I was headed. I looked at him with confusion. my mind began to buzz and burn and the next thing I knew he was in my head.

"Jess told me this is where she found you that day. I figured if you could be anywhere it'd be here."

"How are you mindlinking me we aren't marked nor are we family."

"I am your alpha, once a pup turn eighteen I am able to link them through the blood oaths of their parents if need be. I don't normally need to because most pups take their own blood oaths a few days later and it naturally forms. But you didn't, last week when you turned of age. Tho your parent are gone their oaths are still intact. It took a little work but I was able to tap into it and link to you."

"I don't like it."

"We can shift back if you'd like, I brought our clothes up the cliff with me, don't mind the drool."

All though I didn't like the thought of him being in my head I didn't want to really be alone with him either. Sighing I nodded at him and he pointed his muzzle toward a tree stump where our clothes laid and turned around.

I shifted back quickly and hurried and got dress not wanting to risk him turning around to soon. When I was done I whistled to get his attention. He trotted over and I turned my back so he could change too.

I felt a brush against my legs and he took a wide turn sto get his clothes and his tail wagged across me. desparate much pup.

Once he was dressed he tapped my shoulder and I turned to face him. We were inches apart his head hung just above mine and he looked down on me as if if he were to blink i'd vanish.

His warm blue eyes guilded along my face as if memorizing me and all my features. I blushed and tore my gaze from him not ready to soak him all in just yet. he gentle touched my chin and angled it up towards him. A gentle smile broke across his face as he said, "No matter what we will figure everything out together." And with that he kissed me so gently without a care in the world of what's to come he kissed me. Loving me like the last two years never happened, like we were the same people we used to be, like all he needed in this world was me and me alone.

But we aren't those children anymore. I broke the kiss and backed away from him. Tears fighting to fall from my eyes. We needed to talk and I had no clue where to start.
