mate!

             Wilder

I reached the pack, unable to think straight throughout the morning. I was very exhausted and I went straight to my office.

“Alpha Wilder, we have an emergency! It’s Luna Gloria, she just slumped and she was rushed to the hospital” Beta Jeremy burst out immediately he entered my office and I stood up immediately, all my tiredness and drowsiness disappeared immediately.

“Meet me in the hospital with new clothes!” I barked, and rushed out, shifting into my wolf form and racing my way to the hospital.

My mom has been ill ever since my father was killed. I had managed to recover from the shock and trauma but it’s been two years now and still no change.

I entered the hospital and the security tried to stop me but after recognizing that it was their alpha, they just bowed and opened the door.

I entered, darting for the doctor's office as I growled, causing everyone to be filled with fear as they all gave way and began trembling.

I was let into my mom’s private room and I stood beside her bed. I felt like standing so I could touch her with my claws but my claws were sharp and there was no telling what mistake I could commit with my trembling.

“Mom,” Wilson wailed as tears dropped out of his ocean-blue eyes. Jeremy entered, panting with new clothes and I shifted back, not minding the pain that followed with it.

I went to the restroom and wore my clothes. I came out and rushed to her bed. I helped her pale hands kissing it softly as tears came to my eyes.

“Mom, please just stay for a longer period. I promise to do all your wishes” I pleaded and Doctor Mary walked inside.

“Alpha Wilder, she’s fine now and just resting. You don’t have to worry about her” Mary replied and I ignored her.

How could she tell me not to be worried when my mom was slowly withering away? Her hand moved slightly and I raised my head up, almost breaking into tears as I watched my mother’s pale face.

She smiled weakly and I smiled too, of course, I didn’t want her to know that I was almost crying.

“Wilder…”

“Yes, mom? You should rest, you passed out suddenly” I whispered and she touched my head weakly. She was the most beautiful woman ever but depression and sadness made her look like she was almost twice her normal age.

“Did I make you worry? Forgive me, you can return to your work” She replied and I shook my head.

“No Mom, I wrapped up things before coming. I wanna stay with you” I replied, placing my head on her body and she patted my head lovingly.

“You’re always stubborn” She replied and I smiled.

“Alpha wilder, I found some information about your meeting with Ella” Jeremy muttered and I squinted my eyes, remembering everything about last night.

“Mom, I’ll be back. Position two nurses here to watch her” I instructed and my mom sighed as I kissed her hand and walked out.

“What information?” 

“We found that you were drugged yesterday and after you went to your room, the guards stood watch at the elevator side, not letting anyone enter Ella came up, she struggled to enter but they failed to allow her. Also, the one you were with” I tensed as he reached that topic.

“The lady is the daughter of the old beta… She’s the one you’ve been searching for,” Jeremy dropped finally and Wilson growled.

“Where is she?” I requested with my eyes shining bright. I clenched my fist.

“We can’t find her” Jeremy replied calmly and my heart sank. I had been searching for her for almost two years now.

“Get the plane ready and a car, I’m going to the Blood Moon pack” I replied with my eyes blazing and Jeremy left. I returned to my mom’s room.

“Is something wrong?” Mom immediately asked as she saw my face and I shook my head.

“No, I just need to fly out for some hours, I promise to return as fast as possible” I pleaded and she nodded.

“You can go, I know you don’t wish to leave me but I promise I won’t die in your absence” Mom replied and my face went dark and she burst into laughter, her eyes were shining and I remembered those days when she used to be genuinely happy.

“I love you” I replied as I kissed her forehead and headed out. I began strutting towards the car. I need to go settle some scores with Ella.

I drove to the airport with my anger steadily rising as I thought of all the tricks she had played all these while.

The journey was a few hours and it was late when I got there but I was hellbent on seeing Ella.

I entered my car and suddenly, a scent began to waft around my nostrils. Initially, I wanted to head directly to Ella’s house but suddenly, my hand swerved and I began heading towards the pack house.

I stepped on the brakes, trying to stop but my heart began racing as I tried to fathom what was happening to my body. Wilson began growling and purring, the scent began even thicker and I felt a delightful feeling.

My body was quaking with excitement as I thought about what was coming my way. “mate! Mate” Wilson kept echoing the words in my ears and the car stopped in front of the pack house.

I was shocked and eager to know who my mate was going to be. If it was Ella of course I would reject it but if it turned out to be someone else then I would accept her even though I feel my heart belongs to someone else.

The gates opened and my lights flashed, I saw Louis and Ella standing outside. My heart began palpitating as I thought maybe she was my mate.

I stepped out after switching off my engine and headed towards them. On the floor a chubby lady lay, weeping profusely and I went towards her, compelled by a force.

“Mate!” I let out as I stood in front of her with my domineering eyes glistening with joy. My insides were churning with delight, it was a feeling I’d never felt before.

To my surprise, her eyes lit up and Louis walked toward me, blocking my gaze as he peered at me with fury.

“Mate!” Louis screamed with a scowl and I stepped away from him, crunching to my knees as I stretched out my hand to the lady whose face was swollen. I felt pity for her instantly. 

“She’s my mate!” Louis spat out and my head rang. I stood up and glanced at him coldly and I could see his eyes wavering slightly. What kind of absurd joke was this? Calling my mate his.

Wilson felt possessive immediately, he growled, enraged that someone was trying to claim his mate.

“Your mate? Why would your mate be here? Why would she be on the ground, pleading for your mercy?” I demanded, stepping closer with a lot of fury in my eyes. Why would he treat his so-called mate this way?

Treating his true mate that way wasn’t something I was bothered about but treating my mate this way was absurd. How could he reduce her to nothing in front of the maids was beyond ridiculous.

First I’ll save my mate and I’ll make Ella pay for what she did to me and Louis pay for treating my mate this way. I wouldn’t let them off easily.

“She committed a crime and is refusing to take punishment” Louis replied, unwilling to back down and I growled lowly.

“Refusing to take punishment? You’re absurd. You and I both know punishment isn’t debatable. You’re an alpha and no one has the right to refuse you. Don’t you think there’s something shady going on here? Would you explain to me or wait till I find out myself why you’re punishing my mate” I replied and he staggered back, somewhat scared and I could see Ella shaking visibly from her own side.
