He Is Mine
And there he stands, the man who makes my heart beat like crazy, the one I’ve been dreaming about all evenings. He was gifted to me by the Moon Goddess.
He stares at me, in his eyes I read an incredible love and longing but also an immense concern. Zane stands there in all his authority, in a dark tuxedo. He’s handsome as hell, I can’t take my eyes off him. I can’t believe that gorgeous man there is all mine, and mine alone.
“Zane!” I cried out madly and ran into my mate’s warm arms. I grabbed his neck and pressed my body against his chest, laughing relieved.
“How I’ve missed you, mate. No going away this long anymore, I won’t survive that again.” His arms slipped around me naturally, he lifted me until he was able to bury his face in the crook of my neck. With a few strong inhales, he absorbed my scent and I felt him relax.
“Oooh, my woman! It was really all too much.” After our hot kiss, he slowly slid me against his body back on my feet.
And then he looked ahead.
The crowd witnessed our fiery reunion, started to scold Jasmina. She lowered her head in shame.
“What the hell is going on here? Cleo, I demand an explanation, NOW!” With his arms tightly around me, we walked to the center of the training ground. It is very quiet, everyone was holding their breath out of fear. Cleo bent his head.
“Alpha, I tried to prevent this, but I was bound. Jasmina challenged Mercedes for the Luna position”, he groaned. And in front of all, he reported what happened half an hour ago to Zane.
After Cleo finished the story, Zane looked around at his pack members before his eyes landed on Jasmina.
He stared at her at first with narrowed eyes, full of disgust. The bystanders gaped at the icy aura he emitted.
“Did you really think to become my Luna this way, Jasmina? Then let me take you out of your dreams, if you kill my mate, I will wipe you and your family off the face of the earth,” he bellowed. “How dare you challenge Mercedes? You can’t even stand in her shadow!”
He took a step towards the she-wolf.
“Apologize! NOW!”
Jasmina, who has slumped to the ground, crawled in front of Zane.
“Alpha, have mercy on me. You know I’ve adored you since I was a kid. Was it wrong to want to be your mate?” she still dared. The bystanders begin to shuffle impatiently at her brutality.
“I said, apologize! Don’t test my patience, girl!” he growled at her. Noticing he’s not playing, Jasmina ultimately looked at me.
“I was wrong, Mercedes. Forgive me, please”. I nodded and turned to Zane.
Unwilling to continue arguing with Jasmina, Zane turns his stern eyes on all the women in the pack for a general message.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“I want you all to understand that Mercedes is my fated mate. No one takes her place, only the Moon Goddess determines who my mate is. No challenge or other nonsense will change that”, he emphasized. “The next person who thinks to challenge my mate for the Luna position will be publicly beheaded whether they win the battle or not. I will not tolerate disrespect from anyone.”
He pauses to make his message gets through to everyone.
“Cleo, throw Jasmina into the rogue dungeons. No food for a week, and after a month we’ll see if she’s willing to change her attitude,” Zane decided. Upon hearing the judgment, Jasmina begins to scream in horror.
“Zane, please. Pity me. You can’t do this to me,” she begged, terrified. But the Alpha was done with the case. He picked me up, I clung to him with my legs wrapped around his waist while carrying me into the packhouse. His face was in my black locks again.
We go straight to his room and fall into bed. Our lips meet in a ravishing kiss.
“Oooh baby! The days were so long,” he sighed against my neck. We ripped each other’s clothes off to be as close to each other as possible. We kissed and satisfied our lust as usual until hours later, we fell exhausted into each other’s arms. Right now, I’m lying naked on Zane’s chest as he twists a lock around his finger.
“Zane, I’m so sure we’re fated. This feeling I have for you can never be deceiving”, I whispered to him. He knew exactly where my statement was going. Although we are perfect together, I want to fully own him, feel him deep inside me. I want so much more from him, it is a hunger that my body is eager to relieve.
My mate smiles softly.
“Patience, my love. When the day comes, the wait will be well worth it.” He bowed his head and looked me in the eye.
“Baby, I can’t wait for the day you wear my mark and everyone knows you belong to me.” He caressed the spot where his mark will be engraved in a few years. “The same day, I’ll take you to my pack to stay by my side forever, day and night”. My body heated at the prospect.
“Oooh Zane, I can’t wait for that day. Be prepared, as soon as my wolf recognizes you, I will run to mark you wherever you are. I won’t wait for a second longer,” I stated breathlessly. He strokes my back, I feel him tighten with pure expectation.
Then he gets out of bed and grabs his briefcase. And when he comes back with an expensive looking jewelry case, I sit up straight. Of course, he brought me another present. When he opens the case, I see a breathtaking masterpiece lying on a cushion. It is a jewelry set of yellow and white gold.
“Zane, baby”, I whispered with my eyes wide as saucers. “This one is amazing”.
He sits behind me and loosens the platinum necklace I have permanently on. And then he takes the one out of the case and fastens it around my neck. We walk to the mirror, where Zane stands behind me while I admire my latest gift.
“Gorgeous”, he sighed, kissing my neck. Gratefully I turned to give him a deep kiss.
“All the best for you, Mercedes. I love you so much,” he emphasized again.
We decided to sleep another hour before Zane gets out of bed to meet the high rankings in a meeting. The Alpha must report on the agreements and contracts made with other packs.
I still stay in bed, grab my phone and share the arrival of my mate on social media with a happy photo of us in each other’s arms that I took a few weeks ago.
#LoveMyMate#, I write in striking neon letters.
The congratulations soon follow, sometimes a jealous remark that I ignore.
All I know is that Zane will
