The Alpha's Wife

The ball room was starting to get crowded as almost every unmated creature was arriving by the minute. There seems to be more creatures attending this years ball.

I dreaded this time of year.

For the last ten years, I have been attending this ball. Every year is the same yet each year that I go to this event, I always get disappointed.

I come each year hoping to find my mate, my luna. Nothing.

I am not even interested in any other females. I only want my mate. My mate is the only one that I will ever set my eyes on. My luna is the only one who will completely have my heart even though I have no clue who she is right now.

After the first three years of not finding my mate, I then started to drink at the end of each ball. If I had to attend to these balls, I am going to have a little bit of fun.

This year is different. I am twenty eight years old. My father wants to step down from being king. He refuses to hand over the crown unless I have a wife by my side. Someone who will give me an offspring or an heir to the throne.

If I don’t find my mate by tonight then I have no choice but to marry the beta’s daughter, Caroline.

I feel disgusted....

Upset...

I don't understand why my parents want rush me in finding a mate. I understand that in order for me to become king, I must have a queen to stand by my side. But why rush something so important? Something so precious to our species. A mate is a blessing from the moon goddess herself.

I don't want Caroline as my mate. She is not my mate. She is pretty but I am not attracted to her. I only see her as a friend.

Caroline says that she is really attracted to me but I know she is lying. Caroline is attracted to my beta. Everyone can see how she acts towards him. Flirty.... In love.... Smiling...

Caroline only wants one thing from me. My title, my power, and my crown. Caroline trys to act like she likes me too. However, I can see right through her. She is greedy. Her father is even more greedy.

Even though marrying Caroline and taking her as my mate might change everything, something else feels different tonight. My wolf is on edge more than usual. He keeps pacing back and forth in my head. A feeling I can’t shake.

Before I can figure out why my wolf is on edge, my brother steps closer to me. Out of all my siblings, he is the one who I am closest too.

“Hello brother!” Seth said as he extended his hand. “Hey! What are you doing here?” I said to Seth as I shook his hand.

“Keeping you company Weylyn. Plus, I heard you have a really good stash of whiskey in the kitchen,” Seth said with a chuckle.

“Oh I see, you are trying to drink a couple of shots before Angela is due with your pups. How is your mate?” I said with a grin.

Before Seth could even get a word out, I raised my hand to silence him. Something strong immediately hit my nostrils. The smell of vanilla and cherries is sweet and sensational.

I automatically knew that the scent was coming from my mate. The pull to go find my mate is strong. Seth started to smile. He knew as soon as he seen how strange I was acting and said, “go find your mate. We can talk later.”

I quickly started walking towards the scent. Her smell is intoxicating and I can feel my wolf going wild. He to loves her scent.

I stopped in my track.

There she was standing near the refreshment table talking to Kieran.

Kieran!

Of everyone here, she is talking to him.

My jaw starts to tighten as I notice that he takes my mates delicate hand into his and softly kisses it. This makes me angry and I am fighting my wolf to not growl at him. I don't want to scare my little luna.

I can sense that Kieran really likes her. Although I don’t like how another man likes my woman, I couldn’t help to wonder why he was so smitten with her.

She is so beautiful that for a second my breath was taken away. I seemed to be so mesmerized that I completely forgot what just happened.

My mate is standing in front of me. After ten long years, she is finally here!

She has an hourglass figure that any guy would love for their mate to have. Her skin looks so soft yet has been kissed by the sun. Her hair is long and luscious with brunette as her color. Her dress hugged her figure and flowed out from her hips. The color of her dress is a bluish purple with Swarovski crystals all over.

Her breasts is prominent in her dress. My craving to caress them and to take what was mine was even more evident. At this point, my wolf was going crazy and can feel my erection getting bigger.

I stop the thought immediately knowing that I can’t get a hard on here in the middle of the crowded room. Instead, I walk directly to her thinking of words that I want to say to her.

Before I knew what I was going to say, I was standing in front of both of them. My eyes were locked unto hers. Kieran gazes at me with a stern look probably thinking what the hell was I doing. I didn’t care what he was thinking because I was only here for her.

Only her.

Her eyes here mesmerizing. I could easily get lost in he bright blue eyes which had sparkles in them. I could sense that she wasn’t a werewolf nor a vampire.

What type of creature is she? I am curious to find out more about my mate.

Her heart is beating fast as I extend my hand to her. I hope I didn’t take to long to ask her.

Hell... My heart is probably beating faster than hers at this moment.

“May I have this dance?” I said as I started to smirk at her.
