Alpha Samson.
Until 5 am the next morning, I was all awake, staring at her face as she slept. This was one thing I didn't get the chance to do, and I wished it would continue. But she had rejected me, and I wasn't sure if there was any hope of getting her back again.
I massaged every joint of her body casually, because I knew those areas would hurt her due to the much work she'd been doing at the hospital. I was supposed to return to my pack three days ago, but the thought of her almost gave me a heart attack, and my wolf swore to make us go feral if I didn't look for a way for us to meet her before leaving.
She slept so peacefully, and I didn't want her to see me leaving. So I stood up and covered her body with the blanket, kissed her cheek softly, and watched as she adjusted her body, then I began dressing up and left later on.
Once I left through her balcony, I took a last glance backwards and left completely. Nothing made me so happy as I was able to achieve what I had always wanted. I deflowered her; she did the same to me, and it felt so good knowing the first and only one to get a taste of my c**k was my mate.
I wished to have her as my Luna so I could claim her each time, for the feeling from last night was one I hadn't ever experienced and would really miss. I had already vowed that she alone owned my c**k, so until the time we ever meet again to lose guard this way, I would be for her alone.
By the time I returned to my pack that day, the ceremony my beta told me about was already being hosted. I saw my parents, who looked so happy that they were celebrating the recovery of their son, and my belly twisted into a knot. The pack members being so delighted seemed innocent to me, so I smiled back at them and, after exchanging pleasantries with anyone and presenting a speech, I entered my apartment and locked up the door.
It was about an hour later that Berg knocked on the door, and without opening the door for him, I mindlinked him instead, ‘Everything okay? I'm not interested in that ceremony because I don't know what's awaiting me after now.’
‘Your meal…’ he said, and I hissed. ‘You need to eat something.’
I ran my fingers through my hair and replied to him, ‘Take it back, don't taste it either. I'll order something later.’
‘Yes, alpha! But your siblings wanted to see you, and when they saw your door locked, they left, fuming in rage.’
I scoffed, ‘They should go back to their husband's house and stop misbehaving. I'm not seeing them.’
‘Fine! I'll be back soon,’ he said and cut the mindlink.
I breathed out and walked to the window, looking out through it.
One would think I had the best parents. Some would even say that my parents do well to guide me.
But what no one knew was that they never loved me and just wanted a puppet they could rule through. They knew my mate would make me stronger than they were, which was why they didn't want her around me. And what they didn't know was that I had made up my mind after my mate disappeared that I wouldn't be what they wanted anymore, because I was an adult who could rule with my subordinates.
I had finished washing up and wanted to leave as usual for my lodge in my best resort, when a heavy knock came on the door…and without even asking who it was, I opened it and let them in. “Dad, Mum…”
“I'm not your mum…” she yelled as usual, and I just stepped back a bit while still applying my lotion. “If I were your mum, then why won't you obey my words?”
I glanced at her, "I've been obedient from the start, and nothing changed now.”
“Everything changed, Samson. This wasn't the agreement,” my father said, and I scoffed at him.
The agreement? Who goes into an agreement with their only son on how he would rule, instead of watching them rule and correcting them where necessary?
I see other alphas take over their father's throne and even misbehave, yet their father does nothing. I had assured them I would do a good job in the pack if they let me be, but they insisted I must follow their orders. And I was finally tired of it.
I was so tired of demoting officials who did nothing wrong but exposed the truth, punishing the poor and needy because they made a mistake everyone would have made, taking the people's land, making them pay taxes, but not giving them development in the pack.
The painful part was starting a war with another pack and sending our soldiers there, all because the other pack had more developments than us, and my parents wanted to take over it instead of letting me build ours.
I was tired of all those and hadn't done them in the past six years since I lost my mate, which was their anger, and I didn't give a damn.
“Samson!” my dad called out, and I raised my head. “You’re supposed to be making pups with your Luna by now, but you had refused. I hope you aren't thinking of bringing back that wolfless healer into this pack because she was your mate? If you keep doing this, your mum and I will not be interested in your safety again and wouldn't care if you die from an attack. Think and choose wisely!” he said, pointing his fingers at me.
Once he was done, he turned around and left the room.
I bit my lower lip so hard that I tasted my blood, because I just hated how he called my mate wolfless.
My mum approached me once my dad slammed the door shut behind himself, and her twisted expression turned into a sinister smile.
“You must think you became too powerful to look down on us, huh? And you forgot that your mum is under my captivity?” She shook her head, while a knot twisted in my gut. “Better have a change of mind and life henceforth, or I will have your mum pay for your stupidity.”
A lump rose to my throat. I battled not to talk back to her and just watched her leave, before I let out a heavy breath and walked to the sofa, where I sat. I gripped the side of my head with my palms, my chest rising and falling.
My mum! I have to save her from this wench.
But I really didn't want to go back to what I left again. How could I win over Annette? Having her by myself was already enough to pull them down and save my mum.
I didn't realise how my eyes welled in tears until they rolled down my cheek, and I quickly wiped them off. Since I became the alpha king, I hadn't set my eyes on my mum and only talked to her via phone call.
The last time I spoke to her was a day before the rogue attack, so….
Fuck! I searched for my cell phone and dialed her contact several times, but it no longer existed.
She would think I hated her. How do I reach her safely?
I never thought she would try using my mum as a threat on me.
