Secrets of his Mate

Nineteen

Alessandro

    "Alpha!" Eric came storming into my office. "He's awake. Roman just woke up. How would you like us to handle him?"

    My body turned stiff at the mention of his name. He's been knocked out overnight and all morning. I wanted to snap his neck and end his life quickly, but I also wanted him to suffer. I was still unsure of the best way to punish him, but I needed to come up with something quick. I couldn't risk him running away before meeting his fate. I knew he wasn't the type to run, but I didn't want to leave it to chance.

    "Keep him tied to the hospital bed. I'll deal with him shortly," I stated with authorization turning my attention back to the laptop resting on my desk. He nodded and exited quickly shutting the door behind him.

    I had been staring at the screen for over an hour battling whether or not to press play on the clip before me. I mentally argued with myself. I needed to watch Elana's videos displayed on the monitor not only to better understand her, but because I needed to accept the fact of what she has done without judgement. Unfortunately, each time I made an attempt, my hands started shaking, my heart began pounding, and I became clammy. It enraged my wolf. Just the thought of seeing her naked with another man, or even a woman, set my temperature through the roof as jealousy overcame me.

    With a frustrated sigh, I shut the laptop and rubbed my temples. There was too much going on in such a short time frame. Between multiple deaths, Elana's mood swings, and now Roman, it was all too much for one man to handle. I knew I was somehow being tested, but as an Alpha, I was determined to defeat any hurdles that came my way. I was going to live the life that was handed to me and I couldn't show any weakness.

    I drowned down a shot of whiskey before rising onto my feet. I took a few calming breaths before making my way to the infirmary. As I opened the door, Roman's body came to view. It took a lot of strength to not strangle him that second. His eyes made contact with mine and gave me a look of anger, but didn't say a word. How could he possibly be the one angry at me? He shifted his gaze to the ceiling waiting for my reaction.

    Although I was furious, I almost wanted to chuckle. He was expecting an outburst or possibly another fight, but I was not going to give him the satisfaction of a predictable outcome. "Why didn't you tell me about the videos?" I seethed.

    He arched an eyebrow at my question then shrugged and looked away again. "It wasn't my place to tell you."

    "When I demand to know information about MY mate, I expect my Beta to follow a direct order." My tone was even, but he knew I was steaming. "You knew about her from the start. Did you think you were going to keep her for yourself? Did you really think I wouldn't find out?"

    "Your Beta," he scoffed quietly. He even had the nerve to roll his eyes. "Of course I knew you would find out. I was hoping you'd find that out yourself or at least something else about her."

    I studied him for a moment. I had every right to be furious, yet he seemed to be impatient with me. It was as if he grew a new pair of balls over night. What the hell had gotten into him? "Why didn't you fight back last night?"

    The question caught him off guard. "What?" he asked snapping his head to me.

    "You're my strongest fighter in this pack. Last night when we fought you held back. A lot. Why was that?"

    Roman let out a deep sigh. "After you shoved me into Elana, I saw the cut on her arm. That was all I could think about."

    A loud snarl rumbled out of me vibrating the room and in an instant I was standing over him. "I never pushed you into her and she is not your concern," I spat. "She is mine! You are nobody! You will always be a nobody to her, to me, and to this pack!"

    Again, he rolled his eyes. I had to suck in a breath to avoid ending his life right then and there. He knew better then to test my patience. I gave him one last menacing look before walking towards the door.

    Roman's brows furrowed together in confusion. "Where are you going? What's going to happen to me?" The shock was evident that I was leaving without him receiving a punishment, but it was definitely going to happen, just not at that moment.

    "Get dressed. The burial begins shortly." With that, I stormed out leaving him wide eyed and his mouth hanging open as he processed what I said. He would soon find out he wasn't off the hook.

    I went back into the office pouring myself another glass of whiskey. I sat in my oversized chair behind the desk and fixated my gaze to the laptop. I was ready, or at least as ready as I would ever be. I opened the laptop and forced myself to hit play on the video displayed. I watched a few dozen or so before I let my hand rub over my tight jeans while closing my eyes and sighed.

    I had so many mixed emotions at that moment. Luckily, there weren't too many videos of other men touching her. The ones that did were mostly her ex and some random man or woman for an occasional threesome. Words couldn't describe my fury and disgust, yet I had an obvious hard on. Most videos showed Elana alone dancing and teasing. I understood she was a free spirit. She liked to have fun and was definitely a party girl. Shame came over me as I realized I have been locking away and secluding a woman like that. I sighed again. I needed to see her.

    The guards in front of Elana's room bowed their head when they saw me approaching and cleared the way. I was about to knock on the door when I thought better of it. She wouldn't answer me regardless. I turned the lock and swung the door open. On the bed, Elana lied flat on her stomach reading a book wearing nothing but an oversized tee shirt ending just barely over her butt. It made my wolf want to have her.

    She watched as I made my way to the bed and sat next to her. I heard her scoff before closing the book and turning her body away from me causing her shirt to rise above her buttocks exposing the strings around her hips of a black thong. I tried my best to control my wolf and cleared my throat.

    "I don't want to fight, Elana," I gently said almost defeated.

    "Neither do I," she said in an irritated tone. I couldn't blame her completely after the last things we said to each other earlier. But dammit, I was trying here.

    I put my hand on her waist and sighed. She didn't embrace my touch, but she didn't move away either. "I watched your videos."

    She turned her body back to me and looked at me with a raised brow. "What?"

    "You heard me." I stared deeply at her as she processed what I was saying. "I wanted to watch them. I wanted to try to understand you better and," I exhaled slowly. "I don't know. I just thought-"

    "Do you?" It was my turn to raise an eyebrow at her. "Understand me better I mean."

    I shrugged honestly. "I understand you must be miserable being locked up in this room, but I figured that before even watching anything. I know you like to be shown off and trust me, I don't mind showing off to the world that you are mine. Once things settle down around here, I'll take you out into the city. We can go to restaurants or clubs or whatever you want."

    "Really?" she almost whispered.

    I nodded and smiled at her. "As long as you're clothed and don't kiss or touch anyone else. You are still mine, Elana." I said the last bit forcefully and slow. It was a small warning that she still knew her place.

    A small smile was tugging at her lips satisfied with what she heard. "I'd like that," she said softly.

    "Good." I smiled again at her. "Now you need to get ready. The burial for our three she-wolves is today. We need to get going soon."

    "Why wasn't the burial yesterday with the Remembrance Supper?" she asked curiously.

    I smiled sweetly at her. "The Remembrance Supper is for the leaders of the pack so we can joke, laugh, and mourn in private. That way we can be strong for the rest of the pack as they mourn the losses."

    "Oh, okay," was all she said before she jumped off the bed.

    I watched her hips sway as she walked into the bathroom. She gently pushed the door behind her, but it didn't close all the way. There was enough space left open for a full view of her body through the mirror. She turned on the shower then stepped back taking off her tee shirt. Her breasts slightly jiggled at the movement causing my still rock hard c**k to twitch. I took ahold of it over my jeans and slowly rubbed it keeping my eyes on her.

    She turned to look at herself in the mirror. That's when she caught me with my hand on my crotch through the reflection. A bit of color flushed her cheeks in embarrassment as she looked down and then back at me. It was adorable. Then, to my surprise, she didn't close the door. Instead, she turned her back to the mirror taking hold of the strings of her thong and bent over slowly. She was giving me a perfect view of her plump, juicy ass. Her p***y lips exposed under her round bottom as the tiny fabric was pulled to the ground. My eyes rolled back and I licked my lips. She didn't bother looking back before she stepped into the shower. She knew exactly what she was doing to me.

    "Elana," I moaned next to her ear. She was startled and jumped back confused at how I was so close to her in a flash.

    "How did you-?"

    "Werewolves have super speed," I cut her off impatiently. I didn't want to waste time explaining things to her with what she had just done. "Are you teasing me?"

    She shook her head slightly. "N-no," she lied.

    I grabbed her by the neck and pushed her back on the tile wall, stepping into the shower with her. "Don't lie to me," I told her sternly. She bit her lip and looked down. I allowed my free hand to slowly trace down her cheek to her n****e. I felt her quiver under my touch. I smirked at her. "Tell me you want me," I ordered.

    "I- I," she was fighting the urge to submit to me. She tried moving her hand onto my belt, but I wasn't going to allow her. I quickly grabbed her wrist and pinned it against the wall. "You don't get to touch my c**k until you say it." She looked at me with pleading eyes. I smirked again and leaned down to nibble on her earlobe giving her neck a little squeeze. "Say it!" I demanded.

    I heard her gulp hard. "I want you, Alessandro," she begged into my neck.

    Just the sound of her sweet voice saying my name sent electric shocks through my being. I released my grip on her neck and grabbed her by the hair to pull her head back as far as I wanted. I crashed my lips on hers as she kissed me back just as hard. My other hand found its ways to her breast and began fondling it rough. She let out a small gasp in sensation as her hands worked on undoing my belt and jean zipper.

    My left side was soaked causing my clothes to stick onto me. I took a small step back and yanked off every piece instantly. Elana and I took the second to catch our breath while staring at each others bodies with hunger. She made the first move by pulling me closer as her fingers wrapped around my c**k. My head rolled back while she stroked my full length harder and faster. In one quick motion, I pinned her hands above her head and positioned myself perfectly between her legs so my c**k's entire shaft was rubbing against her throbbing c**t.

    "Mm," Elana let out a whimper while she closed her eyes.

    I kissed her neck and allowed my hands to explore her body. I felt her legs going weak. My hands settled on her ass squeezing both cheeks before lifting her body. She wrapped her legs around my waist and kissed me passionately. I let my lips kiss down to her neck then began sucking on her breasts. With her back against the wall, I took a free hand to grab my hard c**k. I began stroking the tip from her warm entrance to her c**t slowly back and forth. Her hips moved along with me moving harder and faster wanting more.

    "f**k, baby. You're so wet," I exhaled a breath I didn't realize I was holding in. "How bad do you wanna feel me inside of you?"

    "I want-" I didn't let her finish her sentence. I shoved my full length into her hard and fast. "Oh!" she exclaimed loudly throwing her head back and gripping my shoulders for support. My tongue licked the spot I would soon be marking her one day satisfying my wolf. I began thrusting harder and faster making Elana scratch my back and pull on my hair. I could feel us both getting close so I picked up the pace.

    "Oh f**k! Oh f**k! Oh fu-" Elana's body trembled. I felt her release her sweet juices over my c**k. She was in a daze as her body continued shaking. "I love you." It was barely a whisper. Her eyes shot open as she realized what she just let slip out of her pouty, full lips.

    It was music to my ears. I moved even faster and harder. "f**k!" I let out a husky growl as I came inside of her. I kissed her lips one more time before I set her down.

    She looked down at the floor avoiding eye contact. I knew she must've been angry with herself for letting those three words out, but I couldn't help smiling to myself. She loved me. There was no going back now. I wondered if the potion was now working its magic on her. Guilt almost washed over me about that, but I refused to let it get to me. If this victory was a result of that, I didn't care. It was only to heighten her true feelings, and her true feelings were that she loved me.

    She moved passed me reaching for the body wash. I watched as she began to lather herself questioning if I should let it go. It was probably what she was hoping for, but I knew I couldn't. My hands massaged her soapy waist until my arms were fully around her and our bodies made contact. I kissed her on the neck softly. "I love you too," I whispered in her ear.

    Her body went stiff for a moment. I noticed she pursed her lips together then continued showering as if nothing was said. I wanted to chuckle. She was still fighting the damn potion after what just happened.

    "Elana." My voice was hoarse as I inhaled her intoxicating scent, not letting her go. "Are you going to ignore-"

    "Don't," she quickly interjected. "We both agreed we didn't want to fight, remember? Let's just get ready. I'm assuming we're probably late for the burial anyway."

    I had already forgotten all about that with my attention fully focused on the gem in front of me.
