Not MY Mate

Third Person POV“Zachary,” Nova calls her mate and Alpha before he loses what is left of his temper.“Yes, my Luna is correct. Without a calm head, we will all dissolve into chaos,” Alpha Zachary Biczi stands at the head of the table.Down the right side, Alphas and Betas from the werewolf packs that now control all of Canada and most of of what used to be the United States. Down the left side, delegates and leaders of the remaining Humans, currently holding on in the former state of Florida and it’s Keys.“If the Humans would simply accept us as the superior beings, we could allow them to live among us,” Alpha Justice states.“You are an invading force, why should we submit to you?” President Choctran asks. “We still have control of weapons we can use.”“We disabled your nuclear weapons,” Alpha Zachary informs the humans. “There was never a good reason to create such things.”“Well, the other countries will come to our aide,” President Choctran slams his fist into the table.“The re

Over the next two years, Temperance and Sebastian both train to be the best warriors they can be. They fight each other, Zachary, Janice, older pups and even a few new wolves. Tempe starts to see the gap between them closing.Temperance and Sebastian are now 12 years old; their education will be half general studies and half pack leadership.As Alpha and Beta, they are expected to master their leadership classes. Sebastian’s are for Betas. Learn support and security. Temperance’s are for Alphas and as soon as she gets her wolf, she will be off to other packs, learning from them as well.“Who knows about mates?” Shirley, the wife of Elder Abner, asks the newest group of year sevens.The kids raise their hands. “Good, so starting about 14, you will start to get your wolves. Future Alpha Temperance and Future Beta Sebastian will get theirs early, because they will have powerful wolves. Starting at 16, your wolves will let you know who your mate is. For those of you who discover your mate

“Alpha Temperance?” Jasper Justice meets her car at the front of his pack house.“Yes,” Temperance shakes his hand.“Welcome to Justice Pack. My wife and Luna, Mora,” Jasper introduces the lovely woman behind him.“We are going to be friends,” Mora smiles at her.While Temperance is learning, building an Alliance, Sebastian is getting a different kind of training.“Seb, you are a handsome boy, just like your dad. I think you should be exploring your abilities with females,” Abner tells him.“I’m 13, what females are going to be interested in me?” Sebastian asks.Cole- I don’t like this guy.“Oh, come now, you should have a girlfriend. Kimberley Anderson seems very interested in you,” Abner tell him.“Kim is like Temperance’s best friend. She isn’t going to be interested in me,” Sebastian shakes his head.“Every girl will be interested once they know you are the next Alpha,” Abner tells him.“How am I the next Alpha? Temperance can still beat me,” Sebastian says.“But Temperance is not

“I asked what the hell is going on here,” Zachary asks again.“Alpha, I am just encouraging our future Alpha, your son,” Abner answers, with a smile. “Didn’t you say only a few years ago that the goddess made him your son?”Zachary steps closer and squints his eyes at Abner. “I said that in a private conversation in my office with the door closed. Sebastian maybe easily influenced, but I doubt he would say I said that.”“I didn’t Zach, I swear, I didn’t,” Sebastian is trembling at the aura his stepfather is putting off.“I know you didn’t Seb, you need to sit over there while you heal,” Zachary directs Sebastian while staring directly into Abner’s playful eyes. “You have been the one putting the ideas in his head. All the problems in my house are because of you. You created the monster and I have two years to fix it. You wanted to rob my daughter of her fated mate. Weaken my pack.”“I’m an Elder, no one will believe you,” Abner jokes.“Sebastian, has Abner here been the one to put you

“Eric, can you hear me?” Temperance asks as she rubs his face.“Alpha, did I get him?” Eric asks weakly.Temperance smiles at him. “You did very well. You got Dean, but you were shot twice. But you got the video recording out and we caught Abner and Shirley because you hit the panic button. Do you think you can stand? We need to get you to the hospital?”“Yes, Alpha,” Eric nods at her and she helps him to the stretcher. “I’m proud you will be my Alpha.”“Thank you, Eric,” Temperance gives him a smile as they take him away.“Trouble in the border pack is not good,” Zachary says, looking around.“We should kill the Races now and show both sides we do not tolerate this,” Temperance says, looking at her Dad.“I have Elder approval. Thanks to Eric, we don’t need a trial. He is a hero,” Zachary tells her.“And he should be honored. After the funerals for Doug and Grant,” Temperance says.Sebastian comes down into the cells. “You okay?”Temperance doesn’t look at him, not realizing he was sp
