~ DAMIAN’S POV ~
I woke up the next morning with my beautiful sexy mate on top of me and my reaction was instant. I had a boner and I know that if I didn't restrain myself I would take her without her consent.
I hear a groan on top of me and she shifted a little before she fell asleep again. I made sure she was sleeping and I gently and carefully lifted her off my body and put her in the space next to me. As I sat up and got ready to take a shower, I heard her whimper in her sleep, and her body automatically moved towards my body heat.
Her hands settled on my pillow and she pulled it closer to her and inhaled deeply before cuddling the pillow thinking it's me. I chuckled a little and smiled at my angel.
Her face looks so pretty and innocent while sleeping. I wish I could be with her in bed forever but I have duties to attend to as the alpha king. I averted to the shower and I know that I am about to take one of the coldest showers I have ever taken in my 20 years on earth.
I exited from the shower in nothing but a towel and when I reached the room I saw my mate sitting on the bed looking all confused and dazed.
I wish I could take a picture at the moment but I am soon drawn out of my reverie when I see her getting up from the bed and moving in my direction.
She moved over to me and hugged me. The tingles that spread throughout my body from her hug due to the mate bond are unexplainable. When we pulled away I couldn't help but place a kiss on her lips. I showcased all my feelings to her through the kiss and when we pulled away she looked at me with a shy smile.
"Good morning beautiful" I greeted.
"Morning" she replied.
"How was your sleep?" I asked her.
"It was good. But when I woke up you were not in bed" she replied with a cute pout.
"Oh sorry. I had to go and take a shower. I have duties to attend to."
She hugged me again and I think this time she realised the change in my temperature.
"Why are you cold?" She asks.
"I just finished taking a shower" I reply.
"Yeah I know that but why a cold shower?" She asks with confusion written all over her face.
"Because of you" I reply with a smirk tugging at my lips.
"But why..... ooh I get it now. I'm sorry"
"What for?"
"For making you take a cold shower"
"There's nothing to apologise for"
"But..”
"Shhhh. You don't ever have to apologise for the way my body reacts to you."
"But..”
"But nothing. My body wants you and I want you.
Telling me sorry I'd like apologising for how beautiful you are and you don't ever have to apologise for that. I thanked the moon goddess when I woke up today for bringing you into my life.
I know I've met the right mate and words cannot even explain how thankful I am for that."
She looked at me with tears filling her eyes and hugged me tightly. I became confused for a while but I hugged her anyway because I guess that is what she needs.
I felt tears wetting my chest and I pulled away from the embrace to clean her tears and whispered words of encouragement to her. She connected her lips to mine once more and I showed my feelings to her through the kiss. She pulled away and left for the bathroom to take a shower.
I entered my walk-in closet to select an outfit for today. When I was done dressing, my mate exited the shower in nothing but a towel.
"Damn, mate has got a nice body." My wolf Deon compliments.
"Oh shut up" I retort.
"I swear if I were in control I would have her against the wall right now" Deon replies.
"Then you would scare her and she will never forgive us"
"At least I get to be inside that hot, tight....."
I cut the mind link and try to drive out the images that Deon was placing in my head before my need to take her increases. Usually, wolves mate within the first two weeks of meeting and with me being a very powerful alpha and the king of all werewolves my need for her is 10 times stronger.
I only met her five days ago and I feel like I have known her all my life. I noticed that my mating drive has increased a bit since yesterday.
Very soon she'll be going into heat and if we have not officially mated or I have not marked her, her heat will make us unstoppable.
She was done dressing and we both exited my room and moved downstairs for breakfast. In the dining hall, all pack members are patiently at their tables waiting for my mate and me. I sit down at the head of the table with my beta to my right and my mate to my left.
I started to eat and everyone said to take a variety of food. I saw my mate take two pancakes, three strips of bacon, and pour herself a glass of pineapple juice.
I began eating, my warriors at the southern sector mind link me that there is a rogue invasion and that a rogue has a message for my mate and me.
I told them to detain the rogue till I get there. I got a little disturbed because I wanted to keep my mate a secret and prevent a situation like this where rogues and hunters will be after her. Now that this rogue news, it makes me wonder who else knows. I didn't want my enemies to target her to hurt me.
I waited for her to finish up her breakfast and then I asked her and my beta Scott to follow me. Her eyes show confusion as to why I'm asking her to follow me but nonetheless, she obliged.
We walked hand-in-hand to the cellar and my mind went back to the time she was in here because I didn't know who she was and I thought she was a rogue. We reach the middle floor to see a rogue who is being beaten in his cell.
Judging from the fact that I have never seen him here before I assume that he's the rogue who claims he has a message for my mate and me. I told my gamma Trent to stop whipping him and he stopped.
The rogue made contact with me and his eyes glanced over to my mate and our intertwined hands.
His lips quirk up in a smirk and then for a moment, I feel like hiding her.
"I see you brought her"
"Yes. Now tell me the message you claim to have for us."
"Oh yes. I will tell you but in exchange, you will grant me my freedom."
"Just get on with it. And why the hell do you think that I would trust a rogue like you? For all I know you could be lying to us."
"Yes, I could be lying to you. But why would I risk my life to come into the alpha King's territory only to deliver a lie?"
"Ok, then go on."
"Yes"
"Now tell me the message you have" I pointed.
"Patience Alpha" he says with a grin on his face.
"Watch your tongue rogue" I snap angrily
"Your mate is the moon goddess' chosen."
"What you liar. I roar angrily.
"I am not. Your mate has been blessed and chosen by the moon goddess. She is the one to end the upcoming war between the hunters and the werewolves. The moon goddess gave me a main message to deliver.
"What is it?"
He glances he glances over to Selena and looks at her dead in the eye. My wolf growls in my head in a pang of jealousy that stings my heart.
"Your training starts soon. Let him do it. The moon goddess told you how to activate your powers. Do it soon."
"My message has been delivered now Alpha King, I need you to set me free."
"And how do I do that?"
"You have to kill me."
"No!" my mate shouts.
"Damian don't kill him. He doesn't deserve to die."
