Unwanted Mate

Sebastion hated being at these parties, they were always full of stuck up spoiled little girls. He didn’t want to be here, but it had been five years of not finding his mate. Five years of these boring parties. He had almost skipped it this year, but his twin made him come. Arianna was just as tired as he was about finding her mate. She was ready to give up just like he was, but she begged him to go. His twin was one of a handful of people that he would do anything for. Well, almost anything. This party tonight was pushing his limit.

His black tux is too tightly fitted. He wanted nothing more than a beer and his faded blue jeans. He tied his dark brown hair back at the nape of his neck at his sister’s insistence. She claimed he was too wild looking with it undone, and she wanted him to at least give an effort tonight. He donned the bloody thing for his sister and the thought that maybe he would find his pack’s Luna. Not that he wanted to find his mate. He didn’t want a mate. He was happy with his mistress, Gia. That woman was his ideal mate. He would make her his Luna if tonight was a bust. Even if it wasn’t, she would still be his mistress. They had been lovers since they both hit puberty. Having a mate would not change that. He loved Gia and would keep them just the way they were.

He shook his head and sighed, adjusted his tux one last time, and walked around the car to help Arianna from her seat. She is dressed in a knee-length pale blue dress that left him shaking his head. She is not dressed as conservatively as she normally did. She said she was pulling out all the stops and showing off all her goods, hoping if she didn’t find her mate tonight that she would at least get lucky. He cringed at that thought but went along with her as he knew she would not budge from her plan.

“Ok, Sebbie, let’s get in there and see what will happen.” Oh, how he hated that nickname. He had fought everyone else who tried to use it. No one else in his pack dared to use it anymore. Once he took over as Alpha from his father, he knew that no one would dare to again. He took over five years ago and had made the pack stronger. His sister ran their businesses, he ran the pack, between them they made Redwood Pack a very strong, very rich pack. They were one of the strongest packs on the west coast, and he hoped to keep it that way.

He turned to Arianna and offered her his arm. Once she took it, he escorted her into the mansion. Once inside, he already wanted to turn around and leave. The smell of too much perfume, thick cologne, and over-eager women made him want to gag. When she felt him hesitate at the entrance to the ballroom, Arianna stomped on his foot and pulled him further into the she-wolves’ den.

Let this night begin. Midnight couldn’t come fast enough for him.

He allowed his sister to pull him around the room and made pointless conversation with people he promptly forgot the name of for an hour. He felt the agitation in his body grow as midnight drew closer. That he could not pinpoint. He knew that tonight was going to differ from all the other parties. He could feel his wolf’s restlessness, Aries was doing circles in his mind. Something was off and he wasn’t sure what, but he was sure that he would find out in another thirty minutes. Another thirty minutes of Aries doing laps in his mind, just great.

Sebastion excused himself from his sister’s side and made his way to the terrace outside the ballroom. Once outside he reached into his jacket pocket to retrieve his phone. He notices that he had three missed calls from Gia and grimaced. She no doubt was waiting for him to give up on this party and come home to her. He was sure that she would be naked in their bed and waiting for him. He frowned and wondered briefly what would it be like in his home if tonight he found his mate. He knew that there was no way that he would give Gia up the same way that he knew that his mate would probably not accept his mistress. He smiled at the thought of having them both in his bed and he could feel himself get hard at the idea.

Sebastion is pulled out of his thoughts as a pair of hands wrapped around his waist and ran up his chest. Her scent hit him. He knew who it was instantly. He twirled her around, crushing his mouth to hers. Gia molded her perfectly sculpted body to his and met his kiss with her equally hungry one. They are lost in each other for what seemed like hours when a throat being cleared behind them broke them apart. Sebastion looked behind Gia to see Arianna standing there tapping her foot.

“If you are going to have sex with your whore at least do it in privacy and not out here where anyone will see. Have a little respect for others and your potential mate.” Her voice was angry. She spun on her heel and stomped back into the ballroom.

His sister had never liked Gia. Few in their pack did as he noticed almost weekly during the meetings with his Beta Flint and his Gamma Justin. They hated her because she tried many times to seduce them in the past. He didn’t truly believe them. They both claimed she had tried to seduce them. Flint claimed that he had blinders on for his first love. Justin said much the same, but with less diplomacy. He had a mate when he said that Gia had crawled into his bed when he was alone and tried to have sex. Sebastion was angry that his two closest friends would lie like that about the woman he loved. He ignored their stories and complaints. Thinking they were just trying to get him to toss her aside and focus on the idea that his true mate was still out there. Just waiting for the day he found her. He saw their point but refused to acknowledge it. Gia was his and he would keep it that way.

Sebastion reluctantly let Gia go and took a step back from her. “What are you doing here Gia? Not that I mind, but you agreed to stay home and not join us to find your mate.”

Gia looked up at him with her kiss-swollen lips in a pout. Her brown eyes going dark with anger before she slapped him across the face.

“I am here to show that mate of yours that she will not have all of you. That you belong to me!” Gia practically yelled at him.

Gia is dressed in a skin-tight black leather dress that hugged all of her sexy curves and pushed her full breasts to almost spilling over the bodice of the dress. Her dark blonde hair is swept up in curls and pinned up around her head, leaving her neck bare just how he liked it. She stood there glaring at him and he could feel his member harden with lust.

“I know that I belong to you, baby. She will know too if I ever find her. You will be my Luna in every way that counts. We have talked about this already, my love.” Sebastion cupped her cheek as she stood there with her pouty lips and anger in her eyes.

“Yes, but I want to be here to see you break her knowing that she will be nothing to you. Just a fake mate. Never your Luna.” Gia practically growled the last part of that statement.

The longer he entertained finding his mate, the more possessive Gia became. Aries growled in his mind and he knew that his wolf was not happy. Aries didn’t like Gia or her wolf. He wanted his true mate. He was becoming increasingly frustrated with Sebastion for wanting to keep Gia with him. Well, he would just have to deal with it because that was how things were going to be. Gia had been his first lover and he would keep her with him always. They talked about what they would both do if they ever found their mates, Gia saying that she would reject hers and he knew that he could not do that. He would never love his mate, but as an Alpha, he knew that his pack needed a Luna. Knowing his pack, he knew that they would only accept his true mate as their Luna. None of the pack elders liked Gia, many times threatening to take action if he ever made her the pack Luna.

So, he continued to come to these damn balls and search for his mate. Five years of nothing. Five years of going home without his mate. Five years being divided in his mind. HIs wolf longed for his mate. His body and heart hoped he never found her. Yet he knew that as Alpha, his pack needed their Luna as they were stronger with a mated ruling pair. Damn the Moon Goddess for making it so difficult for him.

“Look, babe, you know why I have to be here and you know that I do not want to be. Please ease up ok. Nothing between us is going to change.” He looked at her and smiled.

“That bitch will know who is in charge and it will not be her. I will make her know who will be in your bed every single night. Me! Not her!” Gia poked a finger into his chest and continued to glare at him.

“You know I will have to bed her. My mother will want an heir and she will not relent. The Elders will demand a traditional mating ceremony. Proof that we are fully a mated pair, I will try to do what I can for that not to happen, but it is tradition.” He cupped her cheek and looked into her brown eyes. “You are my heart and mate or not, nothing will change that. However, she will be my mate in the title only. I will never love her. I will never choose her”

“You better not!” She pouted.

She looked so damn sexy that he wanted to find a place and wipe her that pout off her face. He knew that he had about fifteen minutes until midnight. That would not be enough time for anything good, but he would make it worth it. He grabbed her by the arm and pulled her into the mansion to find somewhere with a door that locked. After looking for a few minutes, he pulled Gia into a closet under the grand staircase and closed the door behind them. This will do. He would not be sorry if anyone found them.

As soon as the door was closed, he moved things aside and pushed Gia up against the back wall of the closet and lifted her face to his before crushing his mouth to hers. Gia quickly made work of his belt and the button of his pants before her hand pulled his long, hard member from his pants. She stroked him but stopped as he spun her around to face the wall. He pulled up her barely legal short skirt and was happy to find that she was not wearing any panties. Gia spread her legs and angled her ass for him, and he happily obliged and rammed into her to the base of his shaft. She was more than ready for him, so he thrust hard and fast, lost in the haze of lust for this woman he didn’t care at all who heard them.
