You're Not My Mate

Training with Antonio

Aurelia POV

“Baby? You awake?” I groan in response and turn around to hide under the quilt, trying to get a few extra minutes sleep. I could smell the sweat on Liam, meaning he’d already got up and done his morning workout. I have no idea how he does it. It’s not normal to have so much energy so early in the morning. The covers shuffle and I can feel his warm body come behind me. “Baby girl..” He whispers into my ear, his hot breath tickling me and making my shoulders shoot up to block my ear from him, stifling a giggle.

“My sweet, sweet, baby.” He mutters, gently placing kisses on my neck and cheek. I shuffle my body backwards against his chest and he wraps his arms around my front, pulling me even closer. I let out a small sigh, my body content with the little sparks shooting around from our bodies touching. I snuggle further into his hold, trying to merge our bodies together. “Babe.” He warns and I can feel him starting to stiffen behind me. I ignore his warning, grinning to myself and wriggling my ass against him. “So naughty.” He whispers, kissing my neck. I clench my legs together, feeling my own body starting to get excited as he starts to nibble my neck and shoulder, gently rolling his tongue over his mark on my neck.

His hands roam up under my night dress, his right hand starting to massage my breast, running his thumb over my n****e and then squeezing it, pulling a soft gasp from me. I can feel the wetness starting to pool between my legs and I quickly clench my thighs together. “Are you wet for me, baby?” He asks, while sucking the sweet spot of my neck and running his right hand down my body, before pushing his fingers between my folds. I let out a gasp as he runs his fingers up and down my slit, and starts to massage circles, arching my back and pushing my head back into his chest. He runs his left hand up my body and starts to play with my left breast and n****e while his right hand continues to rub circles and squeeze my c**t.

A moan escapes as I push my ass back, rubbing against his now solid d**k that felt like it was bursting to get free. I lean my arm behind me and push my hand down under his shorts and pants, grabbing hold of his d**k in my hand and running up and down it. I can hear his breathing quicken and his heart rate pick up as he starts pushing fingers inside of me. “Oh, Liam.” I moan, struggling to keep my hand moving with the way his fingers were working me. He was pushing 2 fingers in and out of me, curling them around and scissoring inside me, while using his thumb to push down on my c**t. The pressure was out of this world, and I can already feel my stomach twisting and getting ready for the impending o****m that I know Liam is going to give me. 

“f**k. I love how wet you are for me.” He moans softly in my ear as my body arches with the pressure. “I’m so close.” I stutter through moans. “Give it to me baby. Let go. Soak my fingers as they f**k you.” His dirty talk always pushes me over the edge and he starts to speed up his fingers. My grip tightens around his d**k and stops moving as the o****m rips through me, pulling a loud moan from my lips. I can feel him take my hand off his d**k, and before my o****m has even finished, he thrusts himself inside me, making me scream at the surprise and fulness of him in my hole.

“I love f*****g you, and burying myself in you.” He grunts, as my body arches in to his, my moans fill the room as he quickens the speed, and lifts my right leg up in the air. The new angle feels even deeper and my moans are getting more high pitched, and more like screams at this point. The force of Liam pushing himself into me is making the whole bed shake, and my whole body is being pushed up and down with the force. I lean my arms up over my head and grab the back of Liam’s head, pulling his hair. He threads his arm up and starts playing with my c**t, making me pull even tighter on his hair. “Fuck.” He groans, but I still can’t loosen my grip on him. The sound of my almost screams, his dirty talk and our skin slapping together fills the room. And all I can smell is Liam and our arousals. “Don’t. Stop.” I beg between moans, feeling his d**k force itself deeper inside me, my walls stretching to fit him in.

“I won’t baby. Not until you’ve come all around my dick.” I can feel my body start to twitch and Liam uses this as an opportunity to slow everything down. He pulls himself almost all of the way out, and then slowly pushes all the way back in. His fingers start to slowly circle between my folds, applying hard pressure. I let out a cry, my body going crazy with the pace and yet how sensitive I am and how amazing this all feels. I let out a small cry, silently begging for more. “What do you want baby?” He asks, kissing and sucking on my neck. “You. I want you to f**k me, Liam. I want all of you.” I moan, pushing my body back against him and meeting his thrusts.

“Do you like it slow...” And he pulls out even slower than before, and then carefully pushes back in. “Or fast?” And this time he pushes in and pulls out faster, making my breasts jiggle with the force. “Fast. f**k me fast and hard Liam. Make me scream your name.” He lets out a growl, and the speed picks up. He pulls my leg up even higher and uses my body as an anchor to thrust in me hard and fast. My whole body bounces with the force as I push myself back further onto him meeting his thrusts and feeling him go deep inside me. “Oh, f**k. Liam!” I moan, feeling my whole body tighten. “So f*****g tight. I love f*****g you, and hearing you scream my name.” He slaps my ass cheek as he pushes in again, and leans his hand around to start forcefully rubbing my c**t. I start crying out his name, feeling my o****m building and my body starting to shake. “Let go, baby. Give me your release.” And with that he squeezes my c**t and bites down on his mark on my neck. I scream his name as the o****m tears through me, making my whole body shake and yet he continues to thrust inside me, making me ride out my entire o****m until I can hear him growl and fill me with his own release.

I collapse against his chest, and he rolls onto his back, pulling me on top of him, still inside him. He runs his hands up the sides of my body and massages both of my breasts. “Have I ever told you how gorgeous you are?” He asks, gently kissing my neck. I smile and nestle my head further into his chest. “Every day.” He nibbles my shoulder gently. “You are so perfect.” He whispers, while rolling my n*****s between his finger and thumbs, making me gasp. “Liam. Again?” I ask, surprised that he even has this much energy after his early start and a workout. “Baby, making you o****m is my favourite part of the day.” I blush red at his words and my whole body arches as he continues to play with my n*****s and I can feel his d**k growing hard underneath me again. 

“LIAM. AURELIA. COME ON.” Shouts Cruz through our mind links. I groan and Liam starts firing off curse words both in the mind link and out loud while still playing with my n*****s. “GUYS. Come on.. Alpha you have an important business call this morning you can’t miss.” Liam starts to shout back at him through the mind link and I shut it off, blocking them and just enjoying the feeling of Liam underneath me, playing with my n*****s. “I hope you’re ready for a quick one, baby girl.” I gasp as I feel him push himself inside me, using his legs he pushes my own up so that my knees are bent on either side of him and instantly I can feel his d**k even more, all of my walls tightening around him as he thrusts in and out. He keeps one hand playing with my left n****e while the other journeys down my body and starts to play with my c**t. He whispers dirty promises in my ear of all the things he wants to do to me, and it doesn’t take long before we both fall apart, wrapped up in each other. 

“That was a nice way to wake up.” I softly mutter, making him chuckle. “It was the perfect post-workout recovery.” I shake my head thinking how crazy he is to still be so active in the morning, when I can feel him starting to get hard inside me again. “Liam, we have to go. And it’s too early for me to have another orgasm.” He pouts, letting out a series of small groans before chuckling and sliding himself out of me. My whole body craves him as soon as he’s out of me, but I know we’re probably already way behind schedule to get to work.

Liam POV

“Sir, what do you think?” I turn my gaze back to the screen with the men who were waiting for my decision, away from Aurelia who had decided to wear the sexiest outfit she could have possibly put together today. And yet she’s sat there looking all innocent, as if butter wouldn’t melt. I swallow and nod my head at them all. “I agree. I think this is a great idea for a business, and I’m sure it’s going to be a great success. I also agree that right now, I don’t have the time to devote to being the best business partner for something, but I can have my business manager put forward an investment if that’s what you would be interested in.” 

The chatter starts again and I steal another glance at Aurelia who was sat opposite my desk, smiling at me. She stands up and gestures for a drink. “Coffee, please, baby.” I mouth and she nods, walking over to the counter to start making it, allowing me to take in her whole body. She was wearing a black satin long sleeve blouse, that was too low cut for my liking for her to wear in public. The blouse was tucked into a high waisted, long cream pencil skirt that hugged her figure perfectly, with a small gold belt. She had on tall cream heels, and all I could picture were them around my neck as I f****d her on my desk. I swallow trying to calm the tent down that was forming in my pants.

The meeting ends and we all say our goodbyes. Aurelia comes back to the desk, handing me my coffee. I open my legs and she flashes me that million dollar smile, taking her seat on my right knee and leaning into my body. “Thank you.” She whispers. I raise an eyebrow, looking at her, waiting for her to expand on why she was thanking me. “For letting me listen into the meeting and getting some experience. And for having me here with you. And honestly, for everything. I really love you. And sometimes I forget to show you how much I appreciate everything you do.” I smile and cup her face, planting a gentle kiss on her lips. “Don’t ever think that. Everyday you shower me with love, kindness, support, compassion.. You’re perfect, baby girl.” She grins up at me before leaning forward and pulling my shirt slightly down so that she can see her mark on my neck, and gently kissing it. “You are my favourite person in the whole world, Liam Kustoff and I’m so grateful I have you.” I can’t stop the smile lighting up my face as Theodore wags his tail in delight hearing the compliments from our mate.

“And you, baby girl, make me the happiest man in the whole universe. I love you.” I kiss her forehead before sending her back to her office to finish up her work. Although, not before giving her a playful slap on her ass which earns me a playful glare. I chuckle to myself before heading back to my emails and getting ready to sign contracts for my new investment. Our new investment. This was the first big investment since finding Aurelia, and instantly I found myself doubting my decisions. Should I have asked Aurelia for her advice? Her thoughts? Her input? This is half hers now too really.. I shake my head and instead decide to stick with my original plan. Teach her everything about business and let her decide where she wants to go with it.

The rest of the day is smooth sailing. Aurelia comes in to have lunch with me, which was chicken, mash and gravy today. And then she heads back to her office again, setting up more appointments and replying to emails. At 4 o’clock she comes tearing into my office and throws herself on me, making my chair spin around with the force. “What’s up, baby?” I ask, panicking and looking around us. I couldn’t smell or sense anyone.. “It’s time!” She squeals. I look back at her, confusion across my face as she playfully pouts at me. “For us to go home.. So I can train with you and Antonio. Duh.” I let out a small sigh, mixed with laughter. I’d been dreading this training session. But how could I say no when I knew Antonio was right with what he was saying.. And Aurelia was so desperate to do it. If I was ever away from her, or something happened to her... I needed to know she could defend herself. “I hope you’re ready for me.” She warns, grinning from ear to ear. I smile encouragingly at her, while internally rolling my eyes. It was her cockiness that would be her downfall. I was an Alpha. One of, if not, the strongest Alpha around. I’d been training everyday since I was a child. But, I idolised her, and of course I would encourage her. 

The ride back home was quiet. Every time I drive somewhere, Aurelia would sit in the passenger seat, resting her hand on my thigh. The warmth of her hand and the feel of those electric sparks made me smile. It was impossible to not be happy around Aurelia. She had a wave of light and goodness around her. The pack loved her, and respected her probably more than they did with me. Everywhere she went around our grounds she would be stopped, greeted, and she would show an interest in everyone. And every night I get to wrap my arms around her and hold her close. During my years of training to be an Alpha, many other Alpha’s around the world had warned me that a mate would weaken you. And to avoid seeking them out. But with Aurelia by my side, I felt stronger than I ever had. Because for once in my life, I had something - or someone - to fight for.. To LIVE for. Sure, I’d always had my pack. But for them, I would fight because I had something to die for. With Aurelia.. I wanted to live forever.

“What are you thinking about?” Her soft voice pulls me from my trance as I sit on the bed watching her get changed into a pair of gym leggings, a sports bra and I waited impatiently for her to put a t-shirt on. There was no way I was letting her out training in just a bra. “Just how lucky I am to have you by my side, baby.” She pulls her hair up into a high bun and then turns to me smiling. She rushes across the room, jumping onto me and, as always, I catch her, pulling her close to me and wrapping my arms around her. “Are you ready for this?” I ask. She nods, leaning back to face me and grinning from ear to ear. “Don’t take it easy on me. I’m the Luna. I want to be a strong fighter.” I grimace. There was no way I’d ever attack her. The only reason I’d agreed to do it was because me and my wolf would end up killing anyone who dared show her any harm. “Seriously, Liam. Please. I can look after myself. I think you’ll be surprised.” I try to suppress a sigh and just nod, lifting her to her feet and taking her hand in mine to walk down to the training ground.

As I get closer I can see Antonio has set up an obstacle course. He always started with checking your fitness and speed. Aurelia hadn’t worked out - to my knowledge - since being here. So I was expecting her to collapse halfway through. Antonio was one of the best trainers around - but he was always someone who would work you to the bone. “Evening Alpha, Luna.” I nod greeting him while Aurelia pulls herself from my hand and steps closer to Antonio to greet him back. I resist the urge to grab her hand and pull her back to me. It was still hard watching her be close to other males. It was werewolf instinct to keep your mate close to you, away from others, and as an Alpha everything is heightened even further. I can hear them both talking away about the training Antonio had planned for her, but I had zoned out, instead just watching Aurelia glow with excitement. She had said that she’d trained as a warrior before at her old pack, and the whole idea of that filled me with nerves, dread, anger.. “Alpha, have a seat there while we work through the obstacle course.” I look up at Antonio who had interrupted me and nod, taking a seat on the grass to watch.

45 minutes later and Aurelia had powered through the entire obstacle course multiple times - and she barely broke a sweat. Antonio had raised his eyebrows in surprise a few times and asked me repeatedly if she’d been secretly training. I chuckled, it wasn’t often that anyone impressed Antonio. And as far as I know, she’d had no training. 

“She must have had one hell of a trainer back at her pack. Or spent most of her life training, Alpha.”

I nod slightly at him so Aurelia wouldn’t notice while watching her taking sips of water, cooling down before our sparring session. “Luna, Alpha, are you both ready to spar? It’ll be human form today.” Aurelia jumps up, grinning wickedly at me. “Give me your best, Alpha.” I shake my head, knowing there was no way I’d ever give her my best. 

Aurelia POV

“Ok Luna, first I want to see how you attack. And then we’ll move onto defensive strategies. Does that work for you?” I shrug, furrowing my eyebrows but nod. It was backwards to what I was used to doing back at home. We’d always been trained that defence was the best form of offence. “Something wrong?” Liam asks. I bite my bottom lip wondering whether to say anything and decide to just say it. “Well. Back at my old pack, our trainer always taught us that defence is the best form of offence. So we always started there.” Antonio’s eyebrows lift and he nods in agreement. “I agree. But I have a feeling it’s going to take a little coaxing for Liam to go on the offence with you first. So I want you to show him what you’re made of.” I nod, that sounded ok. Liam smirks at me and I roll my eyes. I was ready for this, and he definitely wasn’t.

“Alpha, put this red ribbon in your pocket. Luna you need to attack him and get that ribbon back. Pretend that it’s something valuable to our pack that we absolutely have to have.” I nod at him,. “Ok, positions.” Antonio calls. I step in the middle of the sparring arena with Liam stood opposite me. “Give him your all, Luna.” I grin at Antonio, and turn back to Liam. It went against every instinct to hurt him, and I had to keep reminding myself and Crimson that we were doing this to be better fighters. To protect our loved ones. But most of all to show Liam that we are of an Alpha bloodline too. And we are strong and powerful.

“GO!” Antonio shouts. I lunge towards Liam who moves to his right. But I’d already predicted this. Liam favoured that side, and it was natural for him to go that way. As I get to where Liam was I spin a roundhouse kick to where I knew he’d go and catch his chest. I can hear the wind wheeze from him and he bends over slightly trying to compose himself. I smile sweetly at him as he looks at me flabbergasted. Antonio is beaming with glee. I spin around to try to get behind Liam while he’s flustered to grab the ribbon but he recovers quickly and spins away. It’s hard to remember that he isn’t going to be attacking back. This is my turn to just be on the offence, and I keep waiting for a hit to come, but it never does.

I circle around him, planning my attack to get to the ribbon. I remember what Caesar always used to tell me. Use your enemy’s weakness against them. I was Liam’s weakness. And I just needed to incorporate that into my plan. We spend the next 15 minutes working our way around the arena. I’d managed to deliver a few more blows, and Liam was sporting a dark bruise on his cheek from when I’d managed to knock him off his feet and deliver a kick to his face as he tried to get back up. He had gone from all smug to suddenly serious and trying to defend himself against his lunatic mate. It made me happy when I realised he was starting to get out of breath. Even with the last few months of no training, I was still feeling fit and energetic. And Crimson was more than up for the challenge of this. 

I look across at Liam and plan my attack. I know where it’s going to go, I just need to make sure I can carry it out. He was a lot taller than me, which meant I was going to need all of my energy and precision for this one. I sprint towards him, waiting for him to move. He favoured his right side, and was weaker on his left, so naturally he moved right. As he moved I jumped into the air, throwing myself left towards his new position, flipping over him and grabbing his head, pulling him to the ground with me. I jump over quickly, straddling him while he lays on the floor, grabbing hold of his hands and pushing them into the ground. I lean over him and hover my face closer to his. His pupils dilate as my lips get closer to his, I lean down, close enough that they’re almost touching. I slip my tongue out and lower it to his lips, feeling his body tense. And then, I pull out the ribbon from his pocket and hold it up, declaring myself as the winner.

I jump up waving the ribbon around, grinning from ear to ear while Liam scowls. “That’s cheating.” He groans. I shake my head. “Nope. I just used your weakness against you.” Antonio claps, applauding my efforts, technique and winning strategy. “She’s right Alpha. She’s your weakness, and we need to work on your reactions to that. It could be something that costs you in a fight.” Liam sits up and scowls but nods in agreement. I flit back over to his side and plant a kiss on his lips. 

“Sorry, Hot Bun.” I mind link, searching his eyes. He smiles back at me, and strokes my face, then grabs the back of my hair and pushes me to the ground on my back, laying his body across my body, pinning me down. “What the..?” “We’re starting your defence training now. Never get distracted, baby girl.” I groan and close my eyes concentrating on my position. A position that Felix used to train me in. I pull my legs up and raise one hand up between our bodies. I angle my right arm under his chin and use my hand to forcefully push up against his neck. I can hear him splutter, and I use this as my chance to push up and roll out of his grip.

“No unprovoked attacks, this is defence only, ok?” Antonio calls, reminding me as I stare at Liam who was now jumping up and looking at me, full of surprise. I grin in success. That had been one of the first moves Felix had insisted I learn - for fear incase anyone ever tried to r**e me. I guess it paid off. Liam comes charging at me and I dive to my left, trying to avoid going for my weaker side, but Liam is quick and throws himself into the air, jumping on to me and trying to grab my upper body. I drop to my knees quickly trying to avoid the impact and rolling to the side. I let out a breath I hadn’t realised I was holding. That was close. Before I can recover, he grabs me from behind into a choke hold. I was still on my knees and I could feel his grip tightening against my throat. I had made him swear to treat me like an enemy so I knew what I’d be up against another Alpha. And now I was starting to regret it. I tried to think through all my years of training, taking into account how much bigger, heavier and stronger he is. I take into account that he’s crouched over to reach my height, which puts his balance off slightly, and that’s what I need to use against him. I thread one arm up and try to force it through his grip, next to my neck. I manage to get it through while clawing away at some of the skin on my neck and grab hold of my other hand with it. I take a deep breath, lifting myself up, placing all my weight on his arms before swinging forward hard, pushing down against his grip with my arms. He loses his balance and stumbles forward while I leap and get out of his grip.

He turns around and charges at me again, knocking me off my feet and delivering a kick to my side, although I note how gentle it is and it’s more of a warning that I’d left my right side open. I doubt it’d even bruise. He turns again to start chasing me, and so I do the same, running away from him towards a tree. I run at the tree, knowing that I need to time this perfectly.. And when I get there I use it to run up and flip back over so that I’m behind Liam instead of trapped between him and the tree. He spins around facing me, walking slowly. I step backwards, being careful of my surroundings to avoid tripping over anything or getting myself cornered. “You can’t run away from me, baby.” He taunts, getting closer and closer to me. He charges forward and I break right to mix it up from earlier, but he’s too fast and predicts that. He rushes at me, grabbing my arms above my head and pushing me to the floor, straddling me. He holds my hands above my head and smirks. “Got you.” I widen my eyes and feel my heart rate quicken. There’s no way I’m going to let him beat me. 

I look down at our position looking for weak spots. Caesar had taught me a few ways to get out of this hold, but I needed to choose the right one the first time or I’d lose the element of surprise. I pull my feet up, bending my knees and start to scoot backwards. He follows the move like I thought, allowing my arms to now be held either side of my head, rather than above me. I take another deep breath, before forcing my pelvis up into a bridge move. He instantly loses balance and falls forward above me, while he’s falling I use his momentum to pull my hands down out of his grip and to my sides.. I quickly turn my head to the side to avoid him crushing me and then wrap my arms around his waist. I swing my body back, using my elbow to push against his arm, making him lose balance again before raising my other arm above his shoulder and using the momentum to roll us over so that I’m sat on top of him. “Nope.” I grin at him, smugly. 

He chuckles, while Antonio walks over to us clapping. “Good. Very good. I have to say Luna.. I’m impressed. How long have you been in training?” I shrug. “Caesar and Felix were always really protective of me. I think Caesar made me start training with him when we were real young, like 5 or 6. Felix joined in too. They knew that there may come a time I’d be away from them and needed to defend myself. They would spring surprise attacks on me every day as well as our usual training. The Elders had spoken once about how Alpha females in Italy were being kidn*pped to be r***d and being used to breed with rogues to build armies. Caesar wanted to make sure I’d never be taken and that I could defend myself.” Antonio nods while Liam’s jaw tenses. “And you haven’t trained since coming here?” I shake my head. “Memory is one of my skills.. I guess muscle memory counts within that too.” 

He nods his head looking me up and down. “And in your wolf form?” I grin. “Even stronger. When I turned 18, me, Caesar and Felix would spar in wolf form. I won most of our fights, even when they teamed up against me.” Both of them look surprised. “You beat two Alpha males.. On your own?” I nod, pouting. “I’m an Alpha too remember? Everyone forgets that because I’m a girl.” Antonio bows his head down ashamed, while Liam smiles and caresses my cheek. “No. I’m saying even any Alpha would struggle against two other Alpha’s.” I nod, forgiving him and shrug. “I told you I was a good fighter.” He grins back at me. “Luna.. I’d like to see you fight against Liam and Cruz.. Or Cruz and Marcus tomorrow as your wolf.. And if it goes like I think it will.. I’d like you to be in one of our group sessions next week as an example.” 

A growl rips through Liam before I can agree. “Not a chance.” He seethes. Antonio rolls his eyes and looks to me. I nod at him. “Sounds good, Antonio. I’ll see you tomorrow morning.” He nods back, waving at me, understanding my dismissal while I turn to face Liam who’s eyes are black with rage and I can almost see the steam coming out of his ears. “NO. Absolutely not.” I take his hand and pull him down to sit on the floor with me. “Liam. With everything that happened with my father.. I need to be sure that I can defend myself against any given situation. And it would be good for you to see that too. Plus.. If I can be used as an example, maybe it will encourage other female wolves that they can fight and defend themselves too. Maybe me and Antonio could start a female fight club!” I grin excitedly.

He throws himself onto his back on the floor, shaking his head. “Aurelia. It’s hard enough watching you defend yourself against me, who I know isn’t going to hurt you. I can’t stand back and watch two other people do the same to you.” I sigh and lean back, nestling onto his arm to stare at his face. “Liam. You’re going to be right there. It’s Marcus and Cruz. They’re not going to intentionally cause harm to me.” He sighs and pulls me closer. “Baby, please..” He begs but I shake my head, adamant. “No. I’m Luna and I have just as much right to protect this pack too Liam.” He sighs defeatedly and just leans his head against mine. “Fine. But I don’t like it.” I roll my eyes at him. “You don’t have to like it. Just be there to spur me on.” He gently laughs and starts peppering my forehead with kisses. 

“You’re an amazing fighter, baby. I’m proud of you.” I grin up at him. A compliment like that was huge for me. Especially when it came from Liam, a strong Alpha. “I wasn’t expecting you to be such a strong and clever fighter.” I nestle into his chest, breathing in his hot cross bun smell. “It’s all thanks to Caesar, Felix and.. One of my friends. They really taught me everything.” I can feel him nod and start to hum, helping me relax. “Bath and bed?” He asks as my eyes start getting heavy and I’m having to fight to keep them open. I nod slowly, and then I can feel him lifting me up bridal style and carrying me into the house. I was exhausted
