Chapter Seven

Lina POV.

I hurried up to my room, found my 2 big travel bags, and started to fill them with my clothes and the few books and stuff I had that was mine. I was getting out of this house, away from Ken and my foster parents. I did not have a lot, as a foster kid, we learn to not have more belongings than we can carry.

Walking down the stairs it is deadly silent down there. For a moment I got worried, maybe Alex had changed his mind, and left without me. When I entered the kitchen, I let out a breath, I didn’t even know I was holding in. Alex was still here; he didn’t leave me. He heard me stand up and came to me, caressing my cheek.

“You okay Beautiful?” I nodded my head, feeling all relieved. He looks me in the eyes, and I can see he know why. “I would never leave you.” He whispers I’m in my ear. And I relax.

“Okay, let’s go Beautiful, time to go home.” He says giving my foster parents a nod. I look at them before saying

“Bye.” They don’t answer, but I don’t care, I am just happy to leave. Alex takes my bags, and we leave the house. He puts my bags in the back of his car, turns around before putting his arms around me.

“You, okay?” He asks. And I nod my head. I have never been better. He smiles and opens the door for me to get in, then walks around and gets in next to me.

As we start driving, I am not sure what to say, what will his parents think? do they even know about me? Will they get mad that he took me home with him? The questions are running wild in my mind, as I am looking out the windows, at the beautiful forest.

Alex POV.

We are driving to the pack and are now driving through the forest. Lina is sitting quietly looking out, I know she is nervous, I can feel it through our bond. I reach over and take one of her hands in mine, and squeeze it lightly, loving the sparks I get from touching her. She looks at our hands but does not say anything.

“My parents are at home, my mom has been wishing for me to find my mate, so don’t be scared if she gets a bit too excited,” I tell her softly and she nods her head.

“Do they know, about me I mean?” She whispers.

“To be completely honest, no. But it’s only because I wanted to get to know you first. And I know this can be a lot to deal with for a human. But don’t worry, they will love you.” She nods her head.

“Their names are Elisabeth and William,” I say to make sure she knows.

We drive up in front of the packhouse and stop the car. The packhouse has 4 floors, the first one where kitchen living rooms and other rooms. Where all pack members can come and go as they wish. Plus, it has the Alpha’s office and rooms for bigger meetings. The second floor is mainly guestrooms and where a few of our omega's taking care of the house live. The third floor is divided in two, one side for the beta family, and the other side for the gamma family.

Then there is the top floor that is for the Alpha and his family. It has 5 bedrooms all with its own bathroom, then a small kitchen space for quick snacks, a private dining area and living room plus a small library. It’s a big house I know, but very common for a pack to have.

I get out of the car and walk around to the passenger side and open the door for Lina. She gets out and looks at the house with big eyes.

“It’s big I know,” I say amused. And she nods her head.

“You live there? She asks.

“Yes, but so do the beta and gamma family, and a few others. Also, pack members come and go as they wish all day. Two first floors are open for everyone where the others are for the Alpha, beta, and gammas family’s top floor only for the Alpha and whoever we allow there.” I tell her. She looks at me and nods her head again and speaks.

“It’s beautiful.” She smiles at me. I reach inside the car take her bags to grab her hand and walk inside. When we get in, I greet one of our omegas.

“Mary, this is Lina, can you please Make sure these bags get up in the room across from mine, and while you’re there make sure it’s ready to Lina.” Mary is our head Omega in the house, and she always spoiled me, Logan and Mike, when we were kids.

“Hello Lina, it’s so nice to meet you, if you need anything don’t hesitate to ask.” She greets Lina and smiles at us.

“Thank you. It’s very sweet of you.” Lina answer and Mary give her a big smile.

 “Alpha, your father, and mother are in your father’s office. Just brought them lunch. I will bring in more if you like.” She smiles

“We will go there now, but wait with food, I think we maybe eat upstairs instead,” I tell her and walk towards my dad’s office with Lina’s hand in mine. When we get there, I whisper.

“Relax Beautiful, everything will be fine.” I kiss her forehead, trying to calm her down. Before knocking on the door, and we go in.

When we come inside my mom and dad are sitting on his couch eating. They look at us as we walk in and my dad says.

“Alex, why are you not at school? And who do we have here?” he gives Lina a warm smile.

“Dad, mom, this is Lina, my mate.” They both stand up to greet Lina welcome my mom giving her a big hug. Lina looks at me surprised, but smiles.

“Welcome Lina, I am Elisabeth, and this man here is William.” My mom greets her.

“Alpha, Luna, it’s very nice to meet you.” Lina says nervously.

“Oh child, you do not have to call us that when we are in private.” My dad says also giving Lina a big hug. “Where did you find such a beautiful mate son.”

“I found her at school dad, I wanted to get to know her before taking her home. But some things have been happening, at school and Lina’s foster home. So, I decided we would get her stuff and move her here.”

Lina looks nervously, afraid they want her to tell what things. but they don’t

“Foster home, how old are you, sweetheart.” My mom asks.

“17” Lina answer almost in a whisper.

“I understand if you do not wish for me being here, I don’t want to make trouble.”

“You don’t look like a troublemaker sweetheart.” My dad laughs and Lina smile.

“I mean with me being here, being human and all.” Dad smiles warming to Lina

“Lina, let me ask you this. Do you want to be here? how do you feel about being Alex mate?” Dad asks.

“From, where I come from, to be here. It makes me feel a little like Cinderella. I have lived here for the last 10 years. I know about werewolves and their mates. I know some find human mates, I just never thought I would be one of those humans. Since I met Alex, a part of me has been happier, feeling safer, and I can’t help but be calm and relaxed when he touches my hand, or I can smell his scent. But I understand he is your son, the future Alpha, I know he needs

 to be strong and can’t have anything of anyone to make him weak.” Lina answer quietly but with a strong voice. My dad looks at me.

“I already told her it doesn’t matter to me if she is Human.” I mindlink him. He nods his head.

“Let me tell you something Lina.” Dad says.

“My beautiful mate, Elizabeth here, this packs Luna, is also human.” Lina looked at my dad and mom surprised. And mom nods.

“So, you see, we do not care if you are human or a wolf. A mate is not just a girlfriend/boyfriend wife or husband. A mate is that last piece we wolves need to become complete, to become our strongest self. If our moon goddess has chosen you as Alex’s mate, she has a reason for that.”

“You mean I can stay?” Lina looks at my parents then at me. And I see a tear forming in her eyes.

“Of Couse, you can Stay sweetie.” My mom rushes to give Lina another warm hug. I can feel Lina relax a little again.

“Mom, Dad, I will show Lina the room I have Mary get ready for her. She has had a long and hard morning. I think she could use a nap.” Both of them look at me, and I know why. Normally Lina would be staying in my room, with me. But I know with everything, it will be too much for her right now. So that’s why I did the next best, made sure she is close to me. My parents nod their heads.

“Of course, son, you go have a nice nap sweetie. We will see you later. Alex, can you come back down when you have shown Lina her room. Got some stuff we need to look at.” Dad says.

“Yes, I will be back in 15-20 minutes, which be okay.”

“Perfect.”

We say our goodbyes and leave the office, showing her upstairs. I open the door to her room and see that Mary did an excellent job. The room is all set. Smiling to Lina I say.

“This will be your room. You can do or change anything you like. The two doors are the walk-in closet and bathroom. I am sure Mary stocked it with shampoo, but you can change that too if you like.” Lina is standing still, not saying one word while she looks around stunned.

“This is the most beautiful room I have ever seen.” She whispers. “Are you sure it is okay, that I am here?” I cut her off before she can finish speaking, going to her grabbing her face, and leaning in to give her a soft kiss. I remember how sweet she tasted this morning.

“Stop Beautiful. Yes, it’s okay. I want you here.” Giving her another kiss that she deftly responds to.

I put my arms around her deepening our kiss, but without being too needy. She relaxes in my arms and after a little I feel her arms hug me back, making me smile against her lips. I gently let her go look at her.

“Get some rest. It’s been a long day. Or if you want a bath to relax your muscles, you can do that. But try to get a nap, I will wake you up later. Or if you wake up, feel free to look around. Or text me on my phone. Here’s my number.” She looks down, feeling a bit ashamed again.

“I don’t have a phone.” She whispers and I smile.

“Well, guess we need to get you one then babygirl. Until you are ready for us to complete our matebond, we need a way to get in touch if we are not together.” She looks up and just smiles at her.

 “Get some rest baby, I will find you later.” I give her another soft kiss and leave to give her some peace.

Don’t worry, you are safe here, safe with us, for the rest of your life. I think to myself, and Hunter agrees. I know he will kill anyone trying to hurt her again. With that in mind, I go back to my dad’s office.
