The Alpha and His Special Witch Mate

Welcome to Silver Throne Fang

Chapter 2: Welcome to Silver Fang

The car trip to Silver Throne Fang was not very eventful. It was as plain and boring as another long trip that takes over 18 hours to get from one place to another. They stopped for bathroom breaks here or there, they made a few stops for breakfast, snacks and lunch and they brought a few gifts and souvenirs along the way. Tate and Zainer loved stopping and smiling for Thomas and Tyson for pictures, they even dragged Carter and Valerian into doing a few pictures with them or got one of the two to take photos of the four when Zainer wasn't taking photos of the three brothers. And it had been a fun time catching up with Jordan and meeting the council of witches for Carter and Valerian. It was short and brief, but overall a good time. They would make sure to visit again when Jordan had his baby, hopefully for a longer visit. Though he knew that was unlikely as the convent of witches didn't like guests staying for too long. 

Carter noticed that Tate always seemed to wear the same clothes, sure they were clean version of the clothes, but the young witch always seemed to wear an oversized orange-yellow coloured sweat shirt and black tight leggings with black boot style sneakers. Though today seemed like black tight skinny jeans instead of the black tight leggings that the other wore yesterday. Why did the other always wear that? It was too hot for it, not that Tate looked he swearing or anything. Carter knew that his alpha would be thinking the same thing, but neither of said anything. Maybe there was a reason behind it? It's not like the others were saying about it either. Though, it was the first time that Carter and Valerian had noticed that Tate had his left ears pierced, it had three sleeper earrings on his upper ear, a silver stone earring in the normal spot of the lobe of the ear and another smaller silver earing in the inside flap bit of the ear. Neither of them knew what that part of the ear was called. 

Thomas on the other hand had knee length jeans, black combat like boots and a blue shirt on. His silver hair was styled in a wild kind of fashion. He had his right ear pierced with three sleepers on the upper part of his ear.

Tyson was the dressed in midnight blue sports, an orange tank top and sneakers. Tyson had both of his ears pierced at the lobe with plain looking silver ball earrings, and he had a black cap with blue sunglasses over his eyes. It was almost like Tate was the shy nerdy kid, Thomas a chilled skater or something and Tyson was the sporty cool jock. 

Zainer on the other hand was wearing mostly black, he had on long baggy black jeans, black boots, a black hoodie and Carter and Valerian were sure he had on a black shirt. He was almost like one of those emo or punk guys, just like a cute looking nerd version or something. His light brown/sliver coloured hair really stood out, so did his green eyes while he was wearing all black. 

Carter was in dark blue jeans, a white shirt and black shoes while Valerian was wearing black shorts, a yellow shirt and sneakers. 

After breakfast and lunch, Carter and Valerian took turns driving while their drive, Marco, slept in the back. Marco was one of the many warriors in the pack and cousins with the Head Pack Warrior, so it made sense for him to go with Carter and Valerian on their trip so that the alpha and beta were protected at all times. 

When Carter drove, Valerian tried to do twenty questions to find out more about the witches. But none of them were really interested in the game. When Valerian took over driving, they more looked at the sights and scenery. Talking a little but not much, which was fine as Carter was making phone calls and organising things on the phone with the pack.  

The Coleson Brothers and Zainer stared at the Packhouse and the pack lands the whole time. They seemed to be in some of kind of state of shock or something. The place a lot bigger than they had expected, but it was beautiful.  

Valerian parked the car as they arrived about 3.32pm in the afternoon, around the time that Valerian thought they were would get back. He thought they could get back between 3-4pm. He noticed a lot of the pack members walking over, seeming happy and excited to see that their alpha was back so soon from his trip to get a new pack witch. While also looking nervous and wary as they knew it meant another stranger coming into their lives. And Pack Witches were so hard to come by, or in this case, were so hard to keep. 

A blond haired male smiled and walked over to the group through the small crowd of pack members wanting to get a look at their guests and wanting to say hello and welcome home to the alpha. 

"Vale!" the blond shouted and over. "One of the alphas from a nearby pack came to visit! Perfect timing for you to come home!"

Valerian groaned a little as he was tired and wanted a shower from the long car trip, though it had been fun. "Coming! Coming! I'll introduce everyone to our pack witches when I'm finished, Carter. Show them to their floor of the rooms in the pack house. We'll do a tour after I finish this unexpected meeting and introduce them to the pack."

"No problems, I'll come right to the officer after. Wyatt, go there now with Vale and I'll meet you when I am finished up," Carter told the other. "Either yourself or me should be with the alpha for the meeting seeing as we're beta and gamma."

"Right," Wyatt nodded as he noticed the four witches. He frowned a little, thinking it was odd that there was going to be four pack witches. But then again, maybe they're a family and only one is going to be the pack witch and the others came along not leaving that brother on his own or something? Wyatt has heard of families wanting to stay together, but it was so rare to happen since there wasn't much in werewolf packs for witches to do since they were pretty much human. "See you soon Carter." A smell picked up but disappeared just as quick as it appeared, as if it was trying to hide from him or something. He had his wolf stirring a little, but he didn't have the time to worry about now. He'll just worry about it later. When there isn't another pack Alpha visiting. 

- 

Valerian smiled happily after his shower. He felt so much better after finally being able to have it. He put on some new fresh clothes. The meeting had gone longer than he expected, so he was going to introduce the Coleson Brothers and Zainer tomorrow morning. Though, Carter did show them around and introduce them to a few people as well. 

Valerian walked out of his room. He had another meeting with the same alpha. They were due up for an alliance renewal, so it was going to take longer than just this afternoon. They would talk about tomorrow after Valerian introduced the pack to their new pack witches. 

Valerian left his room to go get his dinner from the kitchen, the cook had put it aside for him in the fridge while the meeting had been going on. 

The black haired walked down the hall looking over a clipboard where he had notes from the treaty and meeting. working out what needed to be fixed up, added or taken away. He didn't expect for someone to walk into him, knocking the clipboard out of his hand and that person falling down. Valerian picked it up and looked at who walked into him. He stared a little seeing that it was Tate. He was so surprised he didn't his mate before they walked into each other. The Alpha couldn't help but stare at the other as he was wet having clearly just showered and he had been walking around in a towel.

Matteo tried to surfaced but Valerian managed to keep him at bay. The last thing they needed was for Matteo to do something stupid, like mark and mate Tate while Tate was still underage. They only had to wait thirteen more days. Thirteen more days then they could have Tate as their mate. 

"Why are you walking around in only a towel? And we should really stop meeting with you running into me," Valerian smiled at the younger male. Not that the black haired male wasn't enjoying the view of the other's slim toned body. He was enjoying the view quite a lot. 

"I technically walked into you this time... but I understand what you mean. Sorry Alpha," Tate told the other. 

"It's just Valerian, or Vale for you Tate. Or anything else you want to call me," Valerian smiled at the witch. He didn't want his mate calling him Alpha. They were equals. "Though my mother calls me Va or Vally sometimes. But anyway, why are you walking walking around in only a towel?"

Tate went to explain that had ruin his clothes, ripping them as they were old handy downs from his older brothers when a female voice shouted. "Vally!"

"Speaking of my mother," Valerian sighed lightly. He took off his shirt and handed it to Tate who blushed as he was staring at the other's hard toned muscles. "Wear my shirt, it will cover you up a bit. if there is one thing you should about werewolves, alphas especially when it comes to their mates, we're very possessive and protectively of them. And I don't want anyone to see you and your beautiful body." Putting his shirt over the other before he could protest about it. Valerian wanted the pleasure of viewing Tate and his nakedness all to himself. "I know you haven't accept me yet, you're probably still reading and learning about mates from that book that Jordan gave you on witches and werewolves and mates. But just so you know, I have accepted you, and I will love you forever. No matter your choice." Giving Tate a small kiss on the lips before the other could speak up. 

The silver haired male was shocked, blushing and speechless as Valerian moved away from him. He seemed happy about the whole situation as chuckled lightly. His body felt pleasure and shivered a little from the sparks he felt when Valerian touched him. From their bare skins touching. Matteo and Valerian could both smell the other's small arousal from the small act of a kiss. It was hard to not jump the younger male but Valerian reminded himself and Matteo that Tate wasn't of age yet. So they had to wait, like it or not. 

"My room is the third on on the right if you want any more clothes, or to stay the night. I won't do anything but cuddle if you choose to stay the night,"  Valerian told Tate. "And Matteo won't try anything either. not until you're eighteen in thirteen days and have accepted us."

Valerian started to walk away after he picked up his clipboard and went back to work going over things. Heading towards where he heard his mother's voice come from, it was downstairs at the kitchen. She probably noticed he hadn't eaten yet or something. That, or she knew about the new comers and what to know what was going. The alpha hasn't had a chance to update his mother on what was going on and happening. Valerian liked to keep his mother updated. 

Tate watched the other walk off and he had to know something. He had to how how the sparks felt. He wanted to test them more. Was this the mate bond sparks that the monarch explained and the book explained that mates could feel? Or something else? He had to know, because it felt so good and in all honestly, he wanted more of it. 

The alpha turned round hearing Tate race up behind him. The black haired male faced the other male who suddenly kiss him and knocked the clipboard out of his hands this time. Valerian was a little shocked and he didn't know if this was a good thing or bad thing, or both. Was Tate giving him a payback for the kiss he gave the other just before? Or this way the younger male's way of experimenting? Or was this Tate's way of accepting him as his mate? 

Tate's arms wrapped around Valerian's neck. The alpha picked the smaller male up from the ground as he wrapped his arms around the slim male's waist. He felt the other's legs wrapped around his waist and the black haired male pushed the younger male up against the wall. Matteo was howling in happily inside Valerian's head. 

Valerian could feel himself tightening in his pants as he grew hard. He knew he had to stop this before it went too far and before they went to the point of no return, but at the same time, he didn't want this to stop at all. The alpha also knew if his wolf had it his way, they would mark and mate their young male right here and right now, underage or not. The kissing was getting very heated. 

"Tate," Valerian moaned lightly into the kisses. "We need to stop or I won't be able to stop myself. Or worse, Matteo will take over and not be able stop." 

"R-Right... sorry," Tate said a little breathless from the heavy kissing session. 

"You have nothing to be sorry about Tay," Valerian told Tate in a very loving voice. "Just thirteen more days. Then we don't have to stop. I'll win you and your brothers over in thirteen days."

"And Zainer," Tate laughed lightly as Valerian moved them off the wall and Tate stood up again. 

"And Zainer," Valerian said as he kissed the other's forehead. 

"Valerian, I was calling for you. Who this is male your having an arousal for and he for you and why you aren't you two screwing the other's brains out?" a very tall woman said as she was holding a plate in her hand and feeling the wall with another hand. 

"Mother," Valerian sighed lightly only just realising she was there. He wondered how long she was standing there and sensed him and Tate. "Mum, this is my mate Tate. Tate, this is my mother Victoria. And before you say anything mother, Tate is human and a witch, who is underage, he's only seventeen. If Tate will have me and Matteo when he turns eighteen, then I will mark and mate him, but not before." Valerian really hopes his mother doesn't try to help, her help was not always helpful unless it was something involved with fighting. 

"This young man is our future Luna? He smells wonderful and I can tell he is very strong, and probably special from how strong he feels," his mother said happy and excited. She could sense how strong this young man was, he was the strongest witch she has ever encountered, and that was saying something. As she has met many witches in her life time, and this young man was even stronger than the current Monarch of Witches, which was saying something. Because Jordan was the strong witch she had met until now.  

"H-Hello," Tate said with a small wave and smile on his face. Suddenly very shy despite his confident kissing manner before. 

"Valerian, you need to eat. And Tate sweetie, let me be the first one to welcome you to Silver Throne Fang," Victoria smiled at the young man. "I am sure you, your brothers and your friend will love it here. I bet you all very capable witches."

"Silver Throne Fang is a very beautiful place ma'am. I think we will like it here too," Tate smiled at the former Luna. "It is so different to any place i have been too and everyone has so far has been very nice and welcoming."

"That's wonderful to hear! If anyone wasn't, I would have to hunt them down and beat some manners into them," Victoria told him as she handed Valerian his plate. "I hope a Luna Ceremony happens in the near future and a wedding between you. You will find that no-one is a better mate then my little Vally. He is strong, confident, resource and very good handsome. Just like his father."

"Mother," Valerian sighed in annoyance at her. He loves his mother, he really does, but sometimes she was just some overwhelming and annoying. 

"L-Luna Ceremony? What's that?" Tate asked Victoria and Valerian. 

"It's where the alpha grants you to be his Luna. Some like to mate and mark in front of the whole pack. Others do it in private then show off the marks the next day," Victorian explained happily. "I remember the whole pack watching me and my mate. We marked for several hours and everyone saw our little Vally created. Well, we were mating a lot before and after my Luna Ceremony, but we're pretty sure that's when Valerian was made."

"Mother! Enough! You'll scare him!" Valerian said with a small blush over his face. He didn't like hearing about his parents' s****l adventures. It was a weird and gross thought and not what the black haired male wanted on his mind, at all. 

Tate was very red faced. He liked the thought of s*x with Valerian, but he didn't like the thought of others watching. The thought of Valerian doing whatever he wanted to Tate had the seventeen a little excited and arousal. He never lie about that. Valerian was very much his type. Tall, honest, kind, sweet and strong and really loyal, oh and loving. Valerian seemed like he was all those things and that was Tate's ideal man.  

"I-I have to go..." Tate said. 

"Of course, I will see you tomorrow morning. After breakfast I'll introduce you guys to the pack officially then I have work unfortunately," Valerian informed the other. "But I'll make it up to you when it's finish. we can have dinner, if you like."

"L-Like a date? A dinner date?" Tate asked a little excited about the idea, but also nervous about it. 

"Yeah, like a date," Valerian said with aa happy smile on his face. 

"O-Okay! Sure!" Tate nodded his head. Looking excited about the whole thing. "I-I'll see you tomorrow then!"

"Of course," Valerian smiled watching the other raced off. 

"I like him," Victoria told her son. "He sounds so cute and nice. I bet he is very cute."

"The cutest. If I didn't know better, or had seen him looking gloriously naked right before. I would would have thought he was small boobed girl or something," Valerian told his mother. 

 "And I know girl or boy, boobs or no boobs, you would love your mate no matter what," Victoria commented to her son. 

"I know mum," Valerian said holding onto his plate. "Let me eat and sleep because I have a really busy day tomorrow."

"Of course, and what are you going to do for your date?" Victoria asked her son. 

"See if I can Uncle Danny's restaurant. Go for a drive into the human city and see a movie after getting dinner at Uncle Danny's restaurant," Valerian said thinking about it. "Go to the beach for a walk afterwards. I just need to get some flowers, chocolate and a toy of some kind."

"Sounds good, I'll see what I get. Have Malik get it for me for you," Victoria smiled. Malik was the young man who she choose and got Valerian to take her place as the Head Warriors of the Pack or as the tile is Pack Head Warrior. 

"Mum, don't bother anyone about anything. I will organise it myself," Valerian told his mother. 

"No sense, I am your mother. I know what I am doing," Victoria huffed at him. Valerian rolled his eyes at her and she hit him. "Don't roll your eyes at me young man. Show me some respect. I am blind, not stupid."

"Sorry mum," Valerian mumbled. 

"Good, know let your mother handle everything and you just worry about your alpha duties," she smiled happily as she walked off. 

Why did Valerian have a bad feeling about this? But who was he to argue with his mother who would just what she wanted to anyway. "Fine mum, whatever, night!" he told her. 

"Night to you too!" she called over her shoulder. 

_

Tate was excited as he got back to his room. He and Zainer were sharing while Thomas and Tyson were sharing another room. The two rooms could be joined together by just opening the joined room door between them. which was always open. 

Zainer noticed the other's mood as he got some clothes out and got changed. Then Zainer was confused as he saw Tate going through all of his clothes then race off to his older brother's room and go through their clothes. Thomas was already asleep while Tyson was reading some books. Tyson noticed his brother throwing his and Thomas's clothes everywhere. 

"Can I help you Tate?" Tyson asked as he looked over his book. 

"I need something nice!" Tate said very quickly to his brother, not really explaining himself. just telling him what he was doing, looking for something nice to wear. 

"For...?" Tyson asked. 

"A date. I have a date and I want to look nice," Tate confessed to his older brother. 

"The alpha asked you out?" Tyson asked a little shocked to hear, but at the same time not shocked to hear it. 

"Valerian did... He said I didn't have to call alpha. Just Vale or Valerian," Tate told his brother. "Help me Ty. Please. I want to make a good impression on everyone. I feel a really strong pull to him. Like the book said happens to humans and witches to their mates who are of creature blood. I know I don't really know him or anything, but I really like him and I want him to like me." 

"He likes you, don't worry about that," Tyson sighed lightly as he got out of bed. Going through the clothes and pulling out something he thought would be nice. "Here black skinny jeans that are new a nice yellow shirt and a yellow sweater. Yellow looks good on you."

"Thanks Ty!" Tate said taking it to the room to get set up and keep it looking nice. Tyson noticed the shirt that his brother was wearing. It wasn't one of his or Thomas's old shirt. Whose shirt was that? 

"Tate? Whose shirt are you wearing?" Tyson asked his younger brother. 

"Oh Vale's shirt. I kinda ruined the one I took with me to change into after my shower... and the pants too so I had to come back to the room in only a towel. I ran into Vale and he gave me his shirt to wear," Tate said looking happy about it. "I like the shirt... it feels warm and nice..." It was an orange coloured shirt and it suited Tate, though it was a bit big on him, almost like a mini dress. 

"Okay, we'll have to pay some new clothes and go through our old ones and go through the old ones," Tyson said, making a mental note to himself about it. 

"Okay, thanks Ty," Tate nodded his head. 

"You have a date? With the werewolf alpha? Why?" Zainer asked, sounding and looking a little jealous. 

"B-Because he asked me out on one and I like him...." Tate said nervously, not sure why Zainer seemed upset about it. 

"Whatever, have fun. Don't come crying to me if you get hurt," Zainer said going the bed and putting the blanket over his head. 

Tate looked confused a little confused as he looked at his older brother. Tyson was really confused by Zainer's behavior too. "I'll swap rooms with you, you sleep in here with Tom. I'll talk to Zainer tomorrow when we wake up, okay?"

"Okay... thanks Ty," Tate said as he moved the stuff and swapped rooms with his older brother. Turning off the lights and going bed. 

"We will talk about this Zainer," Tyson told the other. Knowing he wasn't sleep, but didn't a response,  Tyson sighed and turned off his light. Maybe Zainer had a secret crush he didn't know about on Tate? Or maybe Zainer was worried about Tate getting hurt by Alpha Valerian and didn't know how to tell him about his thoughts or thought that Tate would argue with him about it? Who knows, but Tyson knew that he would talk to Zainer about it. Whether the other liked it or not. 

They had had such a good welcoming so far too. Welcome to Silver Throne Fang, hopefully tomorrow will be better with the big huge welcoming and introductions to the pack. Maybe Zainer was nervous and he was he taking it out on Tate since Zainer was sure the pack would like Tate more easily or something? That would make a lot of sense. Since Thomas and Tyson were thinking that same thing since Tate was going to the Silver Throne Fang Pack Luna after all. Why wouldn't they like him more than them? Tyson shook his head. He needs to sleep and work this out tomorrow or else he will be thinking about it all night.
