Mmmm. What’s That Smell

Signe POV

We stood around constantly checking the time. Occasionally, I’d peak out of the window in the meeting room to see if a car I didn’t recognize had pulled up.

Alpha Lance was on edge. He was trying to hide it, but with all of my training I was able to pick up on a lot that most other wolves without my training would have missed.

“How much longer until you think they arrive?” Xander asked for what I felt was the millionth time.

Remind me to not go on a long trip with him for fear of hearing the phrase, “are we there yet?” Come out of his mouth just as many times.

Although, I can’t say that I blame Xander or anyone for that matter about being nervous for his visit. Alpha Asher isn’t well known for his patience or his kindness. I’ve heard it’s react first and ask questions later in his case. He’s ruthless towards his enemies, which, ok, that one I definitely can get behind.

I wanted to know how many of these rumors I had heard were just that. Rumor. Or if there was any truth to them.

“He will be here when he gets here.” I say to Xander for what I definitely now know is at least the millionth time. “Maybe this is part of his strategy. He wants to get us all worked up so—“

That’s when I felt it. An odd, tightening sensation in my chest.

“What the hell is that, Aerona? What did we eat last? Goddess, don’t let it be heartburn.” I whined to my wolf. I so don’t need to deal with heartburn right now.

“That’s not heartburn.” Aerona replied, but it didn’t really feel like she was completely there with me. Instead, she sounded as though her focus was elsewhere.

Oh, and speaking of focus…

“Hello! Earth to Signe! He wants to get us all worked up so what? Is this part of YOUR strategy? Leave me hanging and wondering what you were going to say so that I wasn’t thinking about when he was going to get here? Because, if so, it’s working!” Goddess, Xander could be so annoying when he got all worked up.

“Xander! That’s enough. You are not here with your friends. You are here with other high-ranking wolves within your pack to discuss a very serious matter with a very temperamental Alpha from a neighboring pack. Now get your shit together before I remove you from this room myself.” Alpha Lance growled out with a fuck around and find out tone.

But I wasn’t really focusing on either of them at the moment. I was focused on this odd feeling in my chest that just kept getting stronger as the seconds ticked by.

Despite my distraction, I did notice when Xander threw himself into his chair irritated with my lack of response and his lecture from his dad. He really was such a child sometimes.

Suddenly, Lena yelled out, “They’re here! I just watched two of them walk in through the front doors of the pack house.”

We all looked at Alpha Lance. I stood up as straight as possible and I walked over to my post by the door to ensure no surprise attack would get past me to my Alpha.

Goddess please! I can’t fully focus with this feeling in my chest. It just needs to—

“Oh my Goddess. Aerona, what’s that amazing smell? That has to be the most mouth watering smell my nose has ever had the pleasure of smelling.”

I kept sniffing the air and all I could smell was pine needles mixed with a warm breeze. I would like to just bottle it up and carry that smell around for safe keeping.

I was literally salivating as the smell continued to fill my nostrils.

I jumped when suddenly the meeting room doors burst open. In my distracted state I had forgotten I was supposed to be at the ready to prevent any possible surprise attack.

What was wrong with me? I never become distracted this easily.

I glanced up and leapt into a fighting stance ready to protect and defend my alpha. Only, when I looked up to face my possible opponent, I became frozen on the spot.

It’s like I my body was drawn to him. Like a literal moth to a flame, there was nothing I could do about it. Not that I really wanted to.

He looked right at me with those deep green eyes that reminded me so much of the forest Aerona and I love to run through. For a second, I got lost in those eyes in a way I would never get lost in the forest.

And then, as if we had rehearsed this scene one thousand times prior to this meeting, we utter one word simultaneously that will change the rest of my life.

“Mate.”

  • Alpha Asher And The Mate He Never Wanted   Chapter 52

    Signe POV Asher smirked back at me. "Is that right?" "Mmmhmm." I let my gaze wander up and down his body in clear admiration. "As good as you look in those clothes, I am sure you look better without them." "Well then. Can't have you just wondering what I look like naked. I suppose it's time to let you make the determination for yourself on how I look best." Asher winks at me and I feel my heart skip a beat. Our back and forth taunting and the constant teasing from him just made me want him more and more. "By all means." I wave my hand out in a gesture letting him know to please continue. Asher takes his clothes off slowly and seductively. Which, I won't lie, I wasn't aware that was something that men could really do. I watch as he strips off his final piece of clothing and he stands there in all of his glory staring at me while I stare back at him. I knew he had a good body, but I didn't realize it was this nice underneath his clothes. His pecks are well defined and his

  • Alpha Asher And The Mate He Never Wanted   Chapter 51

    Signe POVThe sensation of his teeth biting my neck is almost enough to send me straight over the edge and he hasn't even bit hard enough to actually mark me yet. A low laugh comes from Asher as he pulls away from me. He tongue runs up my neck to my chin and he places a little nibble before peppering kisses across my jaw over to my ear. "What's the matter?" He says in between kisses. "Cat got your tongue?"Each time his lips contact my skin it sends a jolt of electricity coursing throughout my entire body. "Mmmm." Is all I can manage to get out as he continues to ravish me. I should be embarrassed by my lack of speaking ability, but it's clearly not my fault I've lost all of my speaking capabilities in this moment. "Remember that punishment I mentioned earlier?" He whispers into my ear. I nod my head and try not to appear too eager to find out just what my punishment will be."Good." He gives me a little sideways grin that makes my heart skip a fraction of a beat. "You're going to

  • Alpha Asher And The Mate He Never Wanted   Chapter 50

    Signe POVHe wants me. It's so hard to believe and I can barely grasp it, but it's true. The way he is looking at me now tells me so much in comparison to how he was looking at me earlier today."I said..." He leans forward and runs his tongue along my jawline and to the base of my ear and Aerona starts to purr in response. "Who do you belong to?" He whispers to me again."YOU." My response is instant and without hesitation. His mouth is on mine before I can say or do anything more. Asher bites my lower lip bringing it into his mouth while sucking and nibbling on it. I can't stifle the moan that escapes from my mouth. He pulls away from me and pushes me backwards. I land on the bed with a soft plump as I sink into the comforter laid on top of the mattress.I can't help, as I stare at this alpha wolf, but to feel an ache and a need for him deep within me. The way he is looking back at me is filled with warmth and affection and I've never felt so complete from a look before in all of

  • Alpha Asher And The Mate He Never Wanted   Chapter 49

    Asher POVI can't get enough of her. Her taste. Her smell. The way she feels beneath my hands as I run my them over her body and find a place to hold on to. Her ass. It's like it was made for my hand. Round and firm and the perfect place to grab on to and pull her into me.She squeals when I pull her forward and the sound sends a electric shock through me. I want this she-wolf. More than she will ever know and even more than I can understand. No matter how hard I have tried to fight it these past couple of weeks, I can't stay away from her.When she began the words for her rejection, my heart surged with devastation. I couldn't allow for her to reject me. Not when I want nothing more than to be with her in every way possible and never let go.She wraps her arms around my neck, pulling herself even further into me and deepening our kiss. Still, we aren't close enough. I grab her hair and pull her face even more into mine as I am ravenous. However, she begins to fight against me and pull

  • Alpha Asher And The Mate He Never Wanted   Chapter 48

    Signe POVI sit down on the bed and face the door watching to see if Asher has decided to follow me yet. After a minute or so I glance at the clock on the nightstand. Four twenty-two. I will give him untill four thirty before I start packing my stuff to leave. Then I will find him and reject him and walk out of that door and his life for forever. 'We really shouldn't do this. Rejecting our mate will do us more harm than good. Maybe it's best if we just create some space between us. You know what they say. Distance makes the heart grow fonder.'She has a point. I don't want to reject him. Not truly. But the way he made me feel earlier in front of Ian. I have never felt more unwanted in my entire life. 'Honestly Aerona, I don't want to do it, but I feel he made it pretty clear where his thoughts lie on the topic before we came here and all this afternoon did was confirm what he has already told us. I thought that I could change his mind. That we could change his mind, but I don't thin

  • Alpha Asher And The Mate He Never Wanted   Chapter 47

    Signe POVThe car ride back to the pack house is a quiet one, giving me plenty more time to think about what had happened with Asher and Ian. Mainly Ian.He called me Siggy. Only one person has referred to me that way since my arrival. As much as I don't want it to be true, I need to confront Alex about this. I don't want to believe that Alex would do that to Asher. But why else would Ian refer to me as Siggy, when he knows that my name is Signe.We park in front of the pack house and Asher gets out of the car without a word. I open my door before his warrior has the opportunity to do so and move around the car quickly to catch up with Asher."Alpha?" I say quietly, hoping he won't hear me or that he will ignore me and keep walking. I'm losing my resolve for my earlier plans now that my anger is beginning to subside due to my concern about Alex.He stops and turns to face me. "Yes?"There it is again. That emotionless face. The one that reflects how I was feeling not long ago when we
