Alpha's Forced Mate

Chapter One

Issac

    "F***k!" I groan out as Arthur, my beta, body slams me during training. 'damn he has gotten strong' I think to myself. As I eye him up and down thinking of my next move.

    "You good Alpha?" Arthur says while chuckling. I just shake my head, "better than you're going to be!" I state with a smirk. Before he can prepare I charge for him and tackle him to the ground. As we both thud against the dirt training field I hear the buzzer indicating training is done. 

    I start to get up and brush off my athletic shorts watching the dust fly off. "How's Mel?" I casually ask Arthur. For years it has just been Arthur and I - best friends since we could remember. Then when Arthur turned 21 Mel came into our lives. Chosen by the Moon Goddess to be Arthurs mate. Something I never want. They say you're stronger once mated with your true soul mate, but from my experience the loss overcomes the strength. I watched my father become someone I didn't know. I was just 16, but I knew once my mother got sick I would inevitably lose my father too. I know Mel is good for Arthur I just fear the outcome if something happens. 

    "Issac? Hey!" Arthur says startling me. 

    "Yeah - I'm good." I say not realizing I have been spacing out. I make eye contact with Arthur to ensure he knows I am listening. 

    "Okay.." Arthur says with a concerned look. "She's doing good. Constantly after me to f***k" Arthur says shrugging his shoulders and chuckling. I hit his arm and give him the, I'm happy for you man, look. I glance down at my watch. 

    "S**t! I was supposed to meet with advisor Martin five minutes ago!" I am totally screwed. It is never good when the advisors request your presence. I am going to get my ass chewed for being late. I tap Arthur on the shoulder twice before I start jogging to the pack house. Before I get to the door I quickly throw my t-shirt on. Before I can open the door it swings open. Advisor Martin is now standing in the door way in front of me. Even at my 6'8 height this man is intimating. 

    "Mr. Bohn, we had a meeting scheduled for precisely ten o'clock this morning. It is now seven after ten. Do you care to explain?" Martin says while scouring at me. 

    "My apologies sir. I was training - can we meet now?" I ask still intimidated by the equally large man in front of me. 

    "Yes Mr. Bohn. Please - follow me" Before Martin finishes his sentence he has turned and heading towards his office. We take the moderate walk through the large pack house to Martins office. He gestures for me to sit in the large brown leather chair angled in front of his desk. 

    "Mr. Bohn as you know your office ceremony to be announced as Alpha is coming up in two weeks time. This being said before doing so you must be mated to an adequate Luna." Martin states sternly. Before I can fully comprehend the facts that Martin is speaking about he continues. "The match maker has selected an Alpha's daughter for you to make your Luna. Callista Mateo will arrive tomorrow and the following day you will make her your mate." I am now in utter disbelief. Not only did I not want a mate, but now I will be mated in two days. While I have a million things to say I know better than to question the advisor. I nod in acceptance and request to be excused. Martin nods allowing me to leave his office. I need to clear my head so I start walking through the pack house and out the large mahogany front door. I continue directly towards the woods where I start to strip off my shorts, boxers, and t-shirt and shift to my wolf. A run is exactly what I need right now. 

    After shifting to my wolf I take off. Running away from my thoughts and worries.

After about an hour and a half I finish up my run. I know reality is going to kick me in the ass, but what choice do I have? I am my fathers only child it is my duty to follow his lead as Alpha. After getting dressed and walking down the stone path back to the house. I head towards the kitchen to cure my hunger.

“Good afternoon Miss Macey” I smiled towards our seasoned cook. She smiles towards me happily as I grab a couple of her freshly baked cookies. I have decided to take the rest of the day off to prepare for Callista’s arrival tomorrow.

This is neither of our decisions so I want to make our pack house as inviting as possible. I mind link Lacey, our housekeeper, to arrange a bedroom and bathroom for Callista.

I spend the afternoon just going over files and taking things easy. I begin to walk out of my office towards the sitting room to meet Arthur and Mel. All of the sudden a wall of beautiful smells hits my nose. Lilac, honey and mint. I begin to hear my wolf howling, and pawing it’s way to the front. ‘What is going on?’ I frantically ask myself as I look around the room.

“Mate” I whisper towards the gorgeous brunette standing in our doorway. Her clothes hug all the right places, and her lips are to die for. I can tell when she notices me too, because she eyes grow wide.

“Mate” I hear her faintly say.

    Automatically my brain knows what to do. I begin my way to where she is standing not wanting any room between us. I just want to grab her into my arms and show her how beautiful she is. I am now inches away from this magnificent goddess. 

    "Mine"  I whisper into her ear as I wrap my arms around her. She doesn't push me away but instead pulls me in. I want the whole world to know that she is mine. The thought of another wolf marking her infuriates me. My hand makes its way to her chin gently moving her head upwards so we are making eye contact. A few seconds later we are engulphed in a passionate kiss. She begins to pull away and I bring my hand to curve of her back bringing her back in. 

    "Ahem." I hear behind me. I let out an annoyed grunt, and turn around not daring to release the beauty next to me. 

    "Mr. Bohn I see that you have met Callista." Martin states. I quickly look at her and
