Alpha's

Sweet Capture

"Pleasure doing business with you." Tony shook hands with Jerome. His face was a stone facade.  The wind blew around them as they stood in a secluded clearing surrounded by woods. Dean stood behind Tony watching the area and Pieter. Gaby stood next to him in a sweatshirt, jeans, and a t-shirt with a blindfold over her eyes. Jerome nodded at Tony and motioned for Dean to bring Gaby to him. Pieter watched Dean roughly pull Gaby along and he snarled. Dean smirked pushing Gaby into Pieter's arms. Pieter caught her stumbling body and righted it. He stood stock-still as the car they had come with came to a stop right next to where Pieter stood. Pieter whispered into Gaby's ear and her body collapsed into him. The back passenger seat door opened and Pieter slid her body across the back seat fastening the seat belt across her body. He came back out of the car and shut the door. The doors of the car locked. Jerome glared at Tony before watching Tony retreat quietly to his waiting car. The luxury sedan looked out of place in the woods. Dean got into the driver's seat and Tony sat in the passenger seat. As Jerome watched them drive off he glanced around casually. Pieter got into the car and waited. He heard a thump of a body hitting the ground from a height and a grunt. Jerome strolled casually to the car and got in. The vehicle was a rugged 4x4 built for the terrain they were in. The large tires looked ready to take on any ground. The car quietly drove over the rocks, dirt, pine cones, and pine needles. As the car drove onto the main road Jerome sighed. Pieter drove down the road, steadily increasing the speed. The two men did not speak. Pieter drummed his thumbs against the steering wheel. A while later they pulled up to a non-descript-looking building. Pieter gently took Gaby's body from the back seat and walked into the building. He knocked on a door and his mate opened the door to reveal Dr. Hemingford in a gunmetal grey dress. Gaby bounced out of his arms and ran blindfolded towards her mother. Pieter raked his eyes over his mate. She was in a silver-grey dress that hugged her curves gently without being revealing. Pieter's eyes brightened with a hint of True Nature. "I'm ready for dessert." He announced.  His mate smirked. "You can have it after dinner." Pieter pouted. His mate gave him a peck, turned him around, and pushed his body in the direction of another room. Pieter sighed. He walked to where his Alpha was and started getting dressed in a room several feet away from where the girls were. Jerome had already changed into a charcoal grey tuxedo. An air of anxiety hung about him. Pieter walked over to his life best friend and held out an arm. Jerome took the shirt sleeve that had a cufflink hanging off of half his friend's cuff and adjusted it so that the cufflink was in place properly. He waited patiently for the other sleeve and did that cuff up when Pieter put his arm in front of him. Pieter grinned. "Now do the same thing for your future wife." He instructed his friend. Jerome smiled a tight smile. "I'm being selfish. Damn the CoC for taking back their word but Gabriella shouldn't pay for it."  "You've been over this already 'Ro. You're doing this for your sanity and her protection."  Jerome looked at his friend, "We both know that is one reason and not two."  Pieter scowled, "For you. For me, it serves two purposes. I get to care for my Luna and I get to care for my Alpha, properly. I finally have someone I can moan to about you who will really get it. I've waited two decades for this."  Jerome laughed, "You traitor."  "Hey, a man's got to have some peace." Pieter retorted. "I'm just glad she accepted your marriage proposal."  "Is-" Jerome ran his hand over his hair and sighed before looking at the ceiling. He took a deep breath and looked at his friend. "Is she going to be in a lot of pain?"  Pieter's eyes widened, "Shiiit, with your little pencil? Nah."  Jerome unconsciously stroked himself through his pants. He looked very uncertain. "PDW, I don't think I can hurt her like that."  Pieter frowned, "You won't. She was made for you. It might take a moment for her to adjust to accommodating you in her but you were chosen for her pleasure. Just make sure she is ready for you, completely. True Nature will guide you."  Jerome sighed. "You're right. I can do it. She needs me to do it right."  Pieter tucked in his shirt and looped the black belt into his grey trousers. His black socks stuck out as he walked towards Jerome. He put a hand on Jerome's shoulder.  "You love her. Hurting her is not your intention. She's as nervous as you are. She's putting her trust in you. You don't have to rock her world tonight. If she's not ready you can do the other stuff that you've scarred my mind with images of.  "As Alpha Male, it is your duty to take care of your femme's needs. Whatever they may be. If she wants a cuddle, you give it to her. If she wants to have your tongue between her lips you give her that.  "Give her that and she will probably return the favor. Gaby is a sweet girl. You are the only male she wants. Take it easy."  Jerome chuckled darkly. "All I want is to have her covered in my scent. Inside and out."  "Ew, that's my Luna you're talking about." Pieter jokingly complained.  Jerome grinned. "Yes, my femme."  Pieter smiled softly at his friend. "You'll know what to do. Plus, all that Mates Education stuff really does come in handy when it's just you and your mate."  Jerome nodded. The door cracked open. AJ walked in wearing a grey suit. He looked amused.  "Boys. Of the three of us I never imagined 'Ro getting married first." He grinned.  Pieter chuckled, "Just imagine, 'Ro's going to be balls deep in your little sister tonight, AJ."  AJ shivered with revulsion."I do not want to know." He turned to glare at Jerome. "Be good to her 'Ro. She's really delicate right now."  Jerome nodded. All of them could feel his nervousness. AJ smirked. "I was hoping you'd be savage and MnM her so I could beat the living s**t out of you." AJ nonchalantly mentioned.  Jerome grinned. AJ growled. "You wouldn't dare."  "Eat what's rightfully mine?" Jerome asked his eyes flashing.  "We are not having this conversation!" AJ put his fingers in his ears.  Pieter howled with laughter. "Okay, guys. It's showtime."  AJ frowned as he walked out of the room. This had to work or he was going to have to break rank. Damn anyone who tried to stop him. When he had originally taken on the assignment it was a few months undercover, collect data and go back to his pack. Several years later he had missed his sister's entire childhood and was now virtually a pedophile. His skin crawled imagining what his father would say if he ever got wind of this. He sighed. His father was gone.  He did have a chance to save his sister though. He had given Wilder a run for his money literally.  In the end, the deal was the car which was worth well over two million crescents; a new apartment building for expansion and overflow from the other clubs; a private airstrip, and an additional three million crescents in cash. Diamond was the best business deal he had ever had.  The Council of Council had taken back their approval for Wilder to mate with his mate. Jerome, in defiance, had made the offer on Diamond, and Tony had accepted. When the Transfer on the properties and the cash was in hand Tony had handed Diamond over.  For Diamond's sake, Wilder had lavishly proposed in the club amid a heavy club traffic load. Diamond had in true flare accepted the proposal to spite Tony. Hours before the now-infamous Club Manager and his hostess had been seen arguing over Wilder by the seasoned gossipers.  AJ checked his cuffs and looked around at the room he was in. His breath left him when he saw his stepmother walk through the door. He knew that Wilder had put a fair amount of his power around the building and so anyone who walked in looked different to anyone observing the building.   He knew the moment Ramona recognized him. She curtseyed before him. "Alpha."  "Mom." AJ took her in his arms and hugged her. "Goddess, I have missed you."  "Gaby told me she found you and was going to bring you home. I was so scared that you were dead." Ramona hugged her son back fiercely. She let go to look at him. "Oh you are your father's son. Where is your mate?"  AJ grimaced. "She's on 'Ro's team. She's his third in charge. When he figured out who she was to me, he had her operating from a safe house and remote controlling the team through Thabang."  "Your sister has an amazing mate."  "He follows the rules too much," AJ growled.  "Says the resident bad boy." Ramona chuckled.  AJ grinned sheepishly. "We're almost done. I can't believe 'Ro is defying the Council of Councils when it comes to Gaby though. He could lose his pack."  "Yes, well, his brothers would happily take over if it meant their little brother is whole and has his mate." Ramona mused. She saw AJ nod.  Ramona grinned, "After all, what is more important, a sane but somewhat disobedient Alpha or an insane yet obedient Alpha. The Council of Councils is lucky to have him under their ranks." Ramona's expression turned dark, "They have no idea who they are trying to control. When Gaby comes into full maturity they better hope he has Mated and Marked her or the wrath of True will have no channel."  AJ's eyes widened. "You didn't tell me Grandma was involved."  Ramona chuckled. "Have you looked at what your little sister can do?"  AJ shuddered, the power combination between his sister and her mate was like strong alcohol. Too strong to drink but heady just by scent. They could purge the world with very little recourse for anyone seeking revenge.  He had heard of the stories of people picking on his little sister. He smirked considering what they would do when they discovered whose daughter they had deliberately abused. Heads would roll.  If he was honest, he could not wait. He watched Wilder walk to the front of the room. The officiant smiled at Wilder.  Wilder's movements were stiff. His body tension eased slightly as his Beta walked forward and stood next to him. In an instant, Alpha Jacob Wilder and his Luna appeared at the door and walked towards the front of the room.  Every ten seconds another member of the Wilder Clan appeared in different parts of the room. Soon the large room was filled with more than navy blue and grey decorations. A holograph of the Beta and his female appeared in the front row.  On their side of the room, Dean appeared behind AJ with his mate. The third in charge and her mate appeared next to Ramona. The two women hugged.  Soon all the guests were in the room. A hush fell across the room as Gaby appeared at the doors that led into the room. Jerome drank in her appearance and the nervousness that had hovered in the room spiked. AJ watched as his little sister smiled and alleviated the agitated nervousness in the room. He smirked, all she had to do was smile to tame the Alpha. Pride swelled in his chest as he walked towards her.  She beamed at him and his heart settled. This was his little sister and no one would stop her happiness. Relief filled AJ as he realized that his sister's mate was his greatest ally. Tears filled his eyes and he smiled. AJ held out his hand and gently grasped his baby sister's hand. Gazing at her perfectly made-up face that was simple and yet striking he marveled at how grown up she now was. Her white dress with a sweetheart neckline and long sleeves hugged her body delicately.  It was not deathly tight and preserved her modesty, unlike the things she had worn as Diamond. It was perfect. Her dark thick hair was up in an elegant French Roll with blue and silver pins that traced a pattern from her crown to her nape.  Her hands and feet had intricate henna patterns that told the tale of her heritage and her future. The veil over her face represented the barrier that only her husband would lift once she was fully his and his alone. Her feet were bare as was the custom when the daughter of a Goddess was to be wed.  She walked to the front of the room with her brother. AJ heard her heart beat furiously and squeezed her hand in comfort. He whispered how beautiful she was and teased her about how nervous her future husband was.  As they reached the front of the room AJ took her hand and placed it into Jerome's hand. "Hurt her and I will castrate you with my bare hands." The growl hid the words from those who were curious.  Wilder looked amused, "As if your sister would allow you to take the pleasure of doing it herself from her. You have my word older brother, she will not want, in any regard."  AJ's lip curled up in disgust at the subtle jab. "Do not taunt me."  Wilder's eyes glinted with mischief. "Apologies big Brother. I will care for her as if her life were my own." AJ turned to his little sister. "Don't let him hurt you. If I feel a tear slide down your face I will carve a permanent tear track on his face. I love you, baby sis. I am so damn proud of you and everything you have done. Thank you for giving me this honor." AJ kissed his sister's forehead. He turned to face the officiant who stood patiently before them. The officiant asked, "Do you give this goddess away in marriage?"  The room gave a collective gasp. AJ grinned. "I do."  "And by whose authority do you do so?"  "Alpha Anthony Hemingford and Goddess True." The room held its breath. Tradition held that if lightning struck the room the pairing was not to be. A light flickered and someone gasped.  "As priestess for Goddess True, I say from her Trueness, this is indeed ordained and accepted." The officiant said solemnly before smiling as the light that had flickered moments earlier burned brighter. The room buzzed with a murmur of awe before settling into silence. "Jerome Wilder, kneel before me, child." Jerome dropped to his knees while still holding Gabriella's hand. "Good." The officiant turned to Gabriella, "Do you see this man kneeling before you?"  Gabriella nodded, "I do."  "Good. Do you Gabriella Hemingford, accept this earthly man as your king, mate, and friend?"  Gabriella smiled widely, "I do." The officiant nodded. Gabriella looked at the man kneeling before her and smiled at him.  "Alpha Jerome Johan Wilder, do you see this goddess standing before you?" The priestess asked gently. Jerome felt his mouth dry up, he swallowed and nodded, "Yes." Goddess, she was beautiful.  The priestess smiled openly, "Indeed, she is Alpha Wilder. Do you accept this gifted goddess as your queen, mate, and friend?"  A sigh of relief escaped Jerome's lips, "I do, for as long as I have life."  The priestess chuckled, "May those many years be blessed."  The priestess had them exchange vows and rings. After that, they signed their wedding certificate. After they had signed the wedding certificate the priestess grinned at the newlyweds.  "Alpha, your impatience is telling. Would you like to kiss your bride?" The priestess asked trying to suppress her smile.  Jerome nodded as he tried to keep the hunger he felt at bay. His wife was starting to smell delicious and he had no idea how to control himself for the duration of the reception. His canines were itching and he really wanted to get rid of everyone.  No one else mattered. He heard AJ snicker and Pieter clear his throat nervously. If anyone knew how close he was to snapping it would be Pieter.  The priestess looked at Jerome with admiration before turning to Gabriella. "Please take the Alpha out of his misery before he literally whisks you away." Gabriella smiled and stepped forward, standing on the tips of her toes her bare feet were finally revealed. Another small collective gasp went through the room. Jerome's arm went around her waist as he bent down silently telling himself not to take the kiss too far. His lips touched hers gently and he pulled back. Gabriella held onto his neck and looked him in the eye. Her tongue darted out to her bottom lip briefly. Jerome dropped his head again and captured the same bottom lip with his lips before kissing her deeply.  A shockwave of pleasure rocked his body through his taste buds. The temptation to carry on and ignore their guests was great but he allowed her to stop the kiss. He smiled at his wife.
