Chapter I'm Waiting
His silence was making me nervous and the longer I stood there with my heart on my sleeve, the more I regretted even coming back here. Why was he so scared to commit? I know he was hurt by his first mate but I am not her and I have shown him that time and time again.
"Well?" I said as I pulled away in sorrow when panic sunk in and I did the only thing I could think of. "Look, Bishop I know I have been hesitant about us but I'm not anymore. After I went to bed last night I kept thinking about what kind of Alpha I would be and every scenario I came up with ended in pictures of you and I with our children. I have been going about this all wrong, all this time I was trying to be somebody I wasn't, trying to force myself into the role of Alpha when I wasn't born to lead that way. I was born to be a Luna, where I could encourage and uplift other women. My mother had the same opportunity as me and she has nothing to show for it, which is why I was so against it at first. I watched her day after day, be fine with complacency but that was only because she didn't have the option to do anything else, my father's council wouldn't let her but you would let me. You have never told me that I couldn't do something, in fact all you've ever done was support me knowing that if I did go back home, you would lose me."
He grabbed me around my waist with one hand and wrapped his other around the nape of my neck, pulling me into him. His emotions hitting me like waves in the ocean crashing against the rocks, leaving me breathless once again. His lips covered mine in a hot passionate kiss that made the heat inside me boil with pleasure.
Brushing my hands through his hair, he let out a low moan that had my thighs shaking and my panties soaked. I cried out as he broke the kiss and began peppering my jaw with kisses, making his way down to my neck. Every nerve in my body was electrified with yearning when I felt his elongated canines scrape along the soft skin above my collar bone.
"Please, Bishop. Tell me you want me and that I'm yours."
He sank his teeth into my skin sending me soaring into a euphoric state. Flashes of light stole my vision as he poured everything he had into that one bite. His love, his fears, his dreams, and his pain, making my knees go weak. It felt like years passed by and within seconds my vision cleared as he sealed his mark with a kiss and licked it clean.
He dropped to his knees, tilted his neck to the side and said, "You're mine, Red. Now make me yours."
My body propelled forward at his command and I stuck out my tongue, running it along his neck until I reached his sweet spot. Teasing him for a moment, I traced small circles with my finger as his increasing pulse began to pound beneath the surface making me press my legs together to prevent my juices from seeping down my legs.
Just seeing my big, bad Alpha mate kneeling before me, laying his heart on the line for us, excited me in ways I had never felt before. I leaned down and sunk my teeth into his skin, becoming drunk on his intoxicating blood, as our two souls merged into one, beconing the other to consummate our bond.
My body went limp with desire, making me crash into his arms as he flipped me on my back onto the ground. His eyes were glowing an amber, brown with flecks of green but flashed back and forth to his dark browns, letting his wolf join in. Lust flowing between the two of us so strong you could feel it miles away.
Ripping my pants from my body, he pressed his thumb to my clit and pushed his tongue into my core. I screamed out as he thrust in and out with so much force, the entire lower half of my body became numb.
He worked his skillful phallus as I writhed beneath him, bucking my hips for more friction when he climbed up my body and slammed his hard cock deep into my wet, awaiting pussy. He began pounding so hard, my body was leaving an indentation in the dirt.
With his claws digging into the ground, he used the leverage to slam into me time after time, making the orgasm inside build quickly.
“Bishop, yesssssss.”
“Cum for me, Red!”
My breathe hitched as he leaned down and ran his lips across my mark making my entire body explode in ecstasy. Orgasm after orgasm, he fucked me until I couldn’t take anymore then he finally growled out his release, emptying himself completely inside me.
I laid underneath him in utter bliss before he stood up with me in his arms and carried me all the way to his pack house. My eyelids were heavy and even though I was totally exhausted the thought of him ravishing me all night had my insides burning again and when we finally made it to his room, he did just that.
After hours of rough, primal sex, I snuggled into his chest and ran my hands up and down his chest then said, “Does this make me your Luna now?”
A moment passed by before he grabbed my hand and held it. He kissed my knuckles lightly while turning on his side to face me and said, “Why the sudden change of heart, Red?”
I felt disappointment creep into my chest from his words but they weren’t his emotions. I felt as if this whole time I had been chasing a dream only to end up coming up short because of my inabilities.
“My father never would have considered me for Alpha if my brother hadn’t taken over his mates pack. His only other choice was to train me and hope the council would accept it because there was no other option. I never got a say, I never wanted to be Alpha but he didn’t care. In fact, I had my whole life planned out and it didn’t involve any of this.”
“Being a Luna is hard work, Red. Not as demanding as my position but it still requires work. The pack members come to you for advice and comfort. You will become the mediator between families and sometimes my rule but we are a team and when I strike out, you are there to hit a home run.”
His analogy made a lot of sense, we were a team, two separate roles played on the same field, cheering each other on for support. Smiling at him, I finally felt complete, like I belonged and I was meant for more than just raising pups. I was born to lead but in a different way, a counselor if you will to members who needed motivation and insight.
"Tomorrow, we will introduce you to the pack, and then I want you to meet someone. She has helped me many times and I think she can help you too."
I chuckled as I thought about him going to someone for help then I suddenly got jealous at the mere mention of him going to another woman for any needs that he needed met. A low growl escaped my throat as my wolf threatened to tear the mystery bitch to pieces.
"Easy there, killer. It's not like that, I think it's time you met my family."
WHAT??????????????? Who saw that coming? They frickin marked each other, and how sexy was Bishop when he asked him to mark her???
Maybe Ember becoming Luna will finally make her happy and mature a little bit. I know being Alpha would have made her proud to say she could do it but could she really have handled the pressure???
And now he wants her to meet his family? Wait, who are they? Does he having siblings? What will his parents be like? I can't wait to hear about this reunion.
