my friend the alpha

Vicki Volkov

Logans POV

I am exhausted. True to his word Tyler did not let me get an ounce of sleep last night. I get it, pretty boy found his mate finally and wants everything to be perfect for her arrival today but what about me. "This body needs its beauty rest if it's gonna perform for the ladies. After the last week of non-stop searching for her I haven't had the time to get away and get some action for myself. Truthfully if I have to go one more day with out stretching someones thighs I will be forced to lower my standards to an easy omega around the pack. No one needs that kind of needy drama but It's sounding more and more appealing by the hour."

"Will you give it a rest man, We both know you hate hooking up with random chicks so just stop already. Every other wolf can wait patiently for their mate why can't you." Mike growls. he decided to help me after all but he also hates that I sleep around. "But I'm only young once let me get it while I can. I won't be young forever. Sure I feel like s**t the next day but what's the alternative? Letting it fall off from lack of use, no thank you. My mate will understand men have needs."

"You better hope she does, She deserves a patient and loyal mate."

"I will be loyal"

"We will see slut boy."

"Whatever"

I turn away from him and back to The Alphas list. Everything is ready for Vicki to arrive. Which should have been an hour ago... she needs to get her already so I can finally get some much needed 'sleepy time'.

"LOGAN!"

"Yes Alpha" I say rolling my eyes.

In walks Tyler clearly uneasy and nervous.

"Is everything in order?"

"Ya, I told you that 2 hours ago."

"Well check it again she's still not here and goddess damn you if this doesn't go perfectly when she gets here."

"Bro you need to chill, The omegas have done everything you asked down to the rose petals awaiting her for her evening bath now stop it your working your people thin. The only thing not in place is the girl, where is she?"

"She said she had a small disagreement with Sid but is on her way now and will be here shortly."

"In that case can I go to bed now?"

"You think it's wise to disrespect your luna like that on the day of her arrival?"

"She told you not to bother with any of this so don't you think she'll feel guilty when she see my beat ass?"

"You can wait ten more minutes for her to get here then you can rest until this evenings patrols."

"Fine but when you get introuble with her don't come crying to me."

Tylers POV

I didn't even bother with responding to him, I know he's tired but what does he expect I've waiting my whole life to find my mate and now I have to work even harder then the typical wolf because our bond is different then others. We don't feel the instant fated connect every other mated couple does. I have to make her want to stay.

The next 10 minutes fly by and we hear a honk from outside. I take a breath and exit the pack house to see Vicki glowing in the Afternoon sun. She has carmel colored skin and her long firey red hair is pinned up into a tight bun. I send the Omegas down to her car to grab her bags as I approach with open arms.

"The drive wasn't too terrible I hope." I say while embracing her in a gentle hug.

"Not at all, the view was breath taking coming up the mountains I never knew such large trees existed in the state."

"Our town is pretty well hidden you can often miss the road from the city if you don't know where your going. We've been here for nine generations and the pack grounds keepers like to maintain the bordering forest areas as well."

"I'll be sure to share my compliments with Them."

"The omegas will take your bags to your room. Would you like the grand tour?"

"That sounds lovely."

"You've already met my Beta Justin, My gamma Michael, And warrior leader Logan." They all bow there heads as I point them out and guide her inside. We start in the kitchen which is just off the main entry way. My lead Omega Mrs. Jacobson hands us a baskets of treats for our tour and scurries back to her duties.

"These look amazing," Vicki says picking up a freshly baked cookie and nibbling on the corner.

"Thank you my dear, I'm Mrs. Jacobson, If you have any special request don't hesitate to ask. I can whip you up anything you like day or night." she says as she cleans up the kitchen and takes her leave.

"That won't be necessary I'm really quite the simple girl."

We carry on into the pack dining room and round back to the main stairs. I show her my office, her office, the beta and gamma quarters and of course our floor. She requested her own room for the time being so until I can get our room developed to accomodate her own space she will be staying on the beta floor. This is less then Idea and I'm still torn with maybe moving Justin and Jessica down to Michaels floor; so that she won't have anyone on the same floor as her. They will hate that but they will live I want her as comfortable as possible.

We head back down stairs and continue outside to the packhouse grounds and follow the small stream down to the town where the pack lives. We wrap up with the schools and daycare before she asks to return to her room for a light nap.

I leave her at her doorway but can't help but feel like something isn't quite right. I shake it off just saying it's the weird mate bond and my nerves. Things will get more confortable with time.
