The Alpha's Half-breed Mate

Back together again

Elizabeth

For weeks, I had to watch my mate with Britney. She is apparently insisting on shoving their union in my face at every turn. Just two days ago, I had Emily with me around the pack, showing her where she would go to school, where her training would be and such, when Britney appeared out of nowhere and pushed Emily so hard with her leg that she fell and hit her knee on a rock. When she started crying because she was bleeding, Britney had sneered at her, called her a stupid brat, and to watch it when the Luna of the pack was around, and that she should stop crying and bow to her. I was so mortified and pissed off by her disgusting attitude towards my daughter, that I lifted her from the ground, slapped Britney and stomped off to the pack house, practically fuming and barged in to Johns office, not caring the slightest that the Beta was there. My expression made him bow his head slightly to John before leaving. I heard Britney stomping through the house, but thankfully John was able to get her away from the pack house. I had placed Emily on the couch and checked her knee, which was still bleeding, but she had stopped crying.

"What happened? Brit is screaming through the link that you slapped her for no reason, and that she wants you gone." John stood up, and walked over to us. He had seen Emily's hurt knee, and had dropped to his knee before slowly licking at the wound, making it heal up. I had smiled at him and thanked him, before sitting next to my kid and looking at him, still standing on one knee. "Your so-called Luna, pushed her so she fell on a rock and split her knee open, and had the audacity to sneer at her, calling her a brat and blaming Emily for being pushed in the first place, and then after proceeded to try and have her bow to her! That's what happened, John. I slapped her, because I was mortified that she could sink so low as to hurt my daughter. She is clearly threatened by me, and the fact that you haven't marked her yet, is making her into an insufferable b***h!" I was fuming, but I kept my voice chill, knowing I would scare Emily if I raised it. John's eyes flicked between shock and then disgust as his eyes went blank. His hand rested on my knee, calming me, and I could feel his emotions when he was mind-linking, whoever it was. His eyes focused back on mine and he sighed. "I'm sorry. The only reason she is even with me, is because I was trying to get over you. You didn't reject me, and I knew deep down that you were coming back, but when I saw Emily, I just froze. I let Britney behave like a b***h, knowing it would hurt you, because I didn't believe that you had adopted Emily and was a single mother. I believed you had a mate, because Britney put the idea in my head in the first place when your father told me you were coming home." His eyes filled with grief and regret, and before either of us understood what was happening, he held my face between his hands and kissed me. Every feeling I'd ever had for him, came rushing back fast, the mate-bond snapped in place, and I eagerly kissed him back, forgetting the world existed before I heard a scream. We quickly pulled back, seeing the pissed-off expression on Britney when she realized she would never become Luna to this pack. She had stomped off, screaming bloody murder and biting off heads as she went. But John also understood that I couldn't just jump back to where we had once been after he had been with her for so long, so we decided to take things slow.

Two days later, I open my eyes, and turn to see my mate in my bed, one arm lazily draped around my waist and one under my pillow, holding me close. He spent the night, much to Emily's joy, and things felt right again. I turn around, facing him, and snuggle closer to him. I giggle when he wrap his arms and legs around me, pinning me to him as he starts to kiss my nose, cheek, eyes, chin and finally his lips claim mine. "Good morning, beautiful." His eyes are locked on mine, and I smile. Oh, how I've missed this. "Good morning, Alpha. How did you sleep?" He kiss me a few more times before answering. "Like a baby. I can't remember the last time I slept so well, and all because you are finally back where you belong; in my arms."
