Stuck Between Alpha And Beta

Rurik!

Nicolai Volkov

It's still unclear how the priest got to know that I found my mate, but the disturbing part of it is that everyone now knows about it and they're on my neck to bring her here at once, so the coronation can start. There's no way I'm doing such a thing. I mean, it's not possible to end up with a human of all creatures, right? Blue moon pack is the most influenced and strongest park in the werewolf realm, and all alphas of other packs look up to us. Ending up with a human will only taint my image and belittle us in the eyes of the other packs. What will it feel like to know that the Luna is no one other than a human? Never will I accept her.

Standing in the garden and staring at the flowers, I keep thinking of what to do about this. Something must be done about it, and that's it.

"My lord..." A familiar feminine voice sound behind me as the familiar scent fills my nostrils. It's Zoya, one of my concubines, and my favorite.

"Olivia..." I turn around to face her as a smile lace up my lips. I'm always tender when it comes to women, especially the ones I'm benefitting from if you know what I mean. They're always at my call and will do anything to get on my bed and spend a night with me. Don't blame or judge me, but I've slept with almost all the women in the pack, both the mated ones. What was I supposed to do when they kept throwing themselves at me. I don't want to be anyone's enemy, so I gladly give them what they want. Vitya has always been against it, giving me quotes he has learned from the human world, but who cares about that? As long as I see women to lay, every other thing can go to hell for all I care.

"You look troubled; are you OK?" She questions me while staring up at my face. Her hands are wrapping around my waist like the loving and caring mate she will never be.

"Yeah. I'm fine," I nod and she smiles.

"Come on, I have something to show you," She suddenly hold my hand and start dragging me with her, while I just follow her obediently. I know what it always results in each time she says this. It's always the other way round.

As expected, we end up in my room and on my bed. And you know what that means. After having a session with Zoya, as I always call it, I watch her dress up. She has the perfect body shape that keeps driving me crazy. Maybe that's why she's my favorite, or maybe because she's perfect on bed, just the way I like it.

"So, when are we seeing again?" She finally turn to face me with a smile dancing on her lips. She looks so happy.

"I don't know," I groan, sitting up on the bed while having the quilt covering my body. That was one hell of a sweet moment. Zoya never disappoints.

"I'll be heading out now," She bows slightly and with that, she turns around and strides out of my room while I stare at her round butt until she's finally out of my room.

Still sitting on the bed, the door suddenly burst open and I almost scream at the top of my voice. There is my annoying friend, glaring hard at me as if I just killed someone. Not again, please.

"Hey! Stop giving me that look," I wave at him, flinging down my legs to the floor and he scoffs giving me that disgusting glare.

"What was that for, huh? Come on, Nicolai! I thought we've talked about this," He groans and I sigh, running my fingers through my hair. Yes, he has been trying to talk me out of flirting with women and changing them like clothes, but what do I stand to gain if I don't do that? For someone that gives no attention to women, trying to be the good guy, I don't expect him to know how it feels to be the center of attraction. Nicolai is handsome, even as a man, I admire him a lot. If I were to be a woman, trust me; I'll do anything to get him to be mine. Just like myself, he has women throwing themselves at him, but the dude is trying to be a saint that he's not.

"Yeah, we did. And I told you that I can't do what you want. Either you join me in this, or you let me live my life in peace. That's just it. Excuse me," I manage to stand up from the bed and wear my brief while he turns his face away. Maybe he's not comfortable with watching me get dressed in his presence.

"You're unbelievable!" He huff and I smirk at him.

"Same way that you are. Get the ministers to wait up for me in the court. I'll be there in a few minutes. I have something to talk about with them. Also, send a message to alpha Felix to meet me later in the day for something important. Remember we planned to go hunting later, get the horses ready. We'll leave as soon as we're done with the meeting," He glares at me as I talk. I finally drag my feet into the bathroom and close the door behind me.

Having a cold bath after s*x has always been my favorite thing to do, and isn't an exception. I strip out of the remaining fabric on my skin and soak myself under the bathtub that has been filled with cold soapy water. It feels so great being here, and I love the feeling.

Again, the thought of the girl flashes through my mind, and my wolf growls inside me in excitement.

"Nicolai...what do you think about our mate?" Rurik, my wolf asks me and I scoff angrily.

"She's not our mate, Rurik. And please, stop asking me such questions," I shut him up, and I bet he's angry. My body suddenly becomes hot, which tells me that he's in rage.

"She's a human for goodness sake, you aren't expecting us to accept her like that, are you?" I question him, scrubbing my skin slowly with my hands. If anyone walks in here, they would think that I have lost my mind and talking to myself, but the truth is, my wolf communicates with me while still living inside me.

"She's..."

"That's enough, Rurik. We are not talking about her," I cut him off as I step out of the bathtub and wash the foams off my body before I finally exit the room. Rurik has never disappointed me, but I don't know what's wrong with him now. As far as I know, there's nothing special about that girl and trust me, I won't go back on my words...
