The One and Only Alpha
Page 16
The girls' mates did the same thing to them.
""I-uh.
"" She stuttered.
She was terrified.
""Axel!"" I yelled at full volume.
He flinched at my sudden outburst and my brothers looked at me in fright and awe.
I made my way passed him and he grabbed my waist and brought me back too him.
""Skylar.
Don't raise your voice at me.
There is a rogue here, I'm trying to protect you.
"" He said sternly.
""I will if I want.
Give her freaking time to speak.
"" I said back at him.
The girls were shifting from foot to foot uncomfortably.
You see, pregnant she-wolves can have very bad mood swings when they are pregnant.
And it's even worse because I'm a Luna.
""You will not disrespect us.
"" His wolf was coming out.
""I'm not.
I'm just saying you should give her a chance to speak.
I met her at the mall, and she told me her story.
You can at least listen too it.
You will find it very interesting.
"" I felt my wolf getting frustrated too.
""Axel.
Calm her down.
Por favor.
"" Elyse pleaded.
He looked at her confused, but turned to me.
I felt my eyes glowing which means my wolf is coming through.
""Okay.
I'm sorry, I will listen to her story.
"" He said defeated.
He pulled me into a kiss and my wolf calmed down.
I was back to normal.
""Skylar what is going on.
"" I tensed up.
""Nothing.
"" I said quickly.
""Tell me.
"" He said, his eyes boring into mine.
""I will.
But not today.
"" ""Why?"" He asked angrily.
""Tomorrow I will.
"" I smiled and pecked his lips.
""Fine.
"" ""Do you guys smell that?"" Jaz asked us while she is sniffing the air.
""Smell what?"" Elyse asked confused.
""That smell.
It's so""¦intoxicating.
I smell pine and the woods.
It's really manly.
"" She giggled.
""Oh my gosh!"" Amber screamed.
""What?"" Ryan asked.
""Her mate!"" All the girls screamed.
JazI started laughing when the girls screamed.
I kept sniffing the air.
It was so intoxicating.
The smell was delicious.
I heard footsteps running down the stairs and they were coming closer.
As the footsteps got louder, the smell got stronger.
""Do you guys smell that?! It smells like vanilla and strawberries!"" This sexy voice said.
I froze.
A man about 6 feet tall, with soft looking brown hair, and piercing emerald green eyes came into view.
Once we made eye contact, time stopped, we were the only ones there.
We both whispered ""mate"" at the same time.
A smile broke across on his face and he dashed towards me.
He scooped me up into his arms and put his face in the crook of my neck and inhaled my scent.
""Mine.
"" He growled possessively in my ear.
I shivered and felt him smirk on my neck.
He placed a kiss on the spot he would soon mark me and I had to bite my tongue to stop a moan that so desperately wanted to come out.
He pulled back and gave me a passionate kiss.
The sparks flew, and they felt like fireworks.
The kiss was breathtaking.
Our lips moved in perfect sync and we both smiled in the kiss.
We heard someone clear their throat and my mate growled at the disruption.
""What?"" Mr sexy green eyed guy snapped at the Axel dude.
""Congratulations man.
But save it for the bedroom.
"" He laughed.
I blushed a crimson red and hid my face in sexy guy's chest.
""Well.
.
what are you waiting for? Introduce yourself!"" Elyse yelled.
""Sorry about my brother.
He can be rude sometimes.
"" She laughed.
""This is your brother?"" I asked laughing.
""Sadly.
"" Sexy guy growled and I giggled.
He looked at me and his eyes softened.
""Oh.
Um my name is Mark.
I'm the beta of the Rising Moon Pack, which is where you are now.
"" His smile was gorgeous and his emerald eyes were so memorizing.
I snapped out of it and saw him smirk.
Of course he caught on""¦"" um my name is Jaz.
I was from the.
.
"" My voice trailed off and I looked at Skylar sadly.
She came over and gave me a hug.
""It's okay.
He won't judge you.
"" She said softly.
Mark looked at us confused so I finished.
""I'm from the Red Rising Pack.
Well was.
"" I said quietly looking down.
Mark growled a low fierce growl and pulled me close to him holding onto me as if he let go I would disappear.
I hugged him back tight.
""It's okay Jazmine.
I'm right here, I won't leave you.
Ever.
"" He looked down and he was absolutely serious.
I smiled and kissed his cheek.
""What happened?"" He asked softly.
But you could tell his voice had possessiveness lacing off of it.
I looked at Skylar and the girls and they nodded and smiled.
I took a deep breathe and turned around.
He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close to his chest.
""Tyler was a cruel, cruel man.
He worked us all so hard.
He made the men go out and explore for months at a time to try and find Skylar.
"" I was cut off when Axel pulled Skylar close to him protectively.
His eyes darkening.
""Axel.
It's okay, he's gone remember?"" Skylar whispered kissing his lips.
Axel nodded for me to continue, so I did.
""He worked the girls like house slaves and some of the younger ones""¦for ""˜his' purposes.
"" I said looking down.
""You mean like.
.
sex?"" Axel asked.
""Yes.
And one of those girls was me.
He did it because he was so frustrated.
And if you tried to get away, he would beat you until you just laid there and let him do it.
"" Mark growled possessively and pulled me impossibly closer to his chest.
He put his face in my neck and inhaled my scent deeply.
He kissed my neck and growled.
""You're mine.
You belong to me, not him.
"" His grip tightened on my waist and I smiled.
I nodded and pecked his cheek.
He looked up at me and his eyes were glowing bright green.
""I think his wolf took over.
"" Elyse said.
The guys moved in front of the girls and held them behind them.
A possessive wolf that has full control can sometimes get out of hand.
""Jaz.
Calm him down.
"" Axel said watching Mark just incase something happens.
I nodded and turned to Mark.
His wolf was staring me down, and let me tell you""¦it's pretty scary.
It's kinda intimidating actually.
""Mark?"" ""Jazmine.
My name is
Kaydon.
I am Mark's wolf.
"" ""Oh hello Kaydon.
"" I smiled at him.
Kaydon shivered and I giggled.
He smiled and kissed my lips.
I kissed him back and he growled in approval.
He pulled back and leaned down to my ear and let out a low chuckle, which I shivered in delight too.
I saw him smirk.
""˜Jerk""¦' I thought to myself.
""You are mine Jazmine.
Not Tyler's, not any other guy.
Mine.
No other guy can touch you the way I can, look at you the way I can, or even think about you the way I can.
You are mine and you belong to me.
I don't like sharing whats mine.
Do you understand me?"" Kaydon's protectiveness and possessiveness was really hot.
It surprised me to be honest.
I was so shocked I couldn't speak, so I just nodded.
He smirked at me.
""Good.
"" He placed a kiss on my neck and a quiet moan escaped my lips.
He chuckled and his grip on me tightened.
""I'm glad you understand then.
"" ""Can we have Mark back now?"" ""Why?"" He asked getting angry.
""Kaydon calm down.
Don't worry, I only belong to you and Mark, no one else.
Tyler is dead.
Skylar told me about the war you guys had and you guys killed him.
Remember?"" He sighed.
""Okay.
"" I smiled and pecked his lips.
""Thankyou.
"" ""You're welcome.
I love you Ari and Jazmine.
"" Ari is my wolf's name.
""We love you too.
"" Kaydon closed his eyes and reopened them.
Back to Mark's eye color.
""Sorry.
"" He apologized.
I lifted his chin and gave him a kiss.
""It's okay Mark.
"" He smiled.
""Oh.
Let me introduce you to these people.
"" I turned around and he introduced them to me.
""Alpha Axel and Luna Skylar, Ryan and Elyse, our Third is Caleb and Amber, Stephan, Tristan, Alpa Carter and Luna Taylor, Spencer and Jordan, Austin and Katie, And Turner.
Alpha Carter, Austin, and Spencer are Skylar's brothers.
Skylar was from the Blue Creek pack which Carter is the current alpha of.
"" ""Hello everyone.
"" I smiled and waved at them.
""Hey.
"" They all said back with warm smiles.
""I'm sorry for snapping at you.
"" Axel apologized.
I waved him off.
""Your alpha, you were doing your job.
"" ""Okay.
"" He let out a small chuckle.
The rest of the day we just sat down and got to know each other a little bit more.
Today was quite surprising.
Who knew after a year of being on the run, I would find friends and even my mate.

"Chapter 37: Dinner surprise
SkylarI have been a nervous wreck.
And to make it worse, the girls are starting to smell me.
When a wolf is pregnant, they give off this certain smell and anyone who smells it, you can tell that they are pregnant.
The girls have been trying to keep Axel away from me as long as possible and it's extremely hard.
He got so frustrated that he threw a chair at the wall.
""˜Where the hell are you Skylar?!' I heard Axel ask me through the link.
Crap.
.
'um.
.
I'm in my room.
'""˜I'm coming to see you.
'""˜No! Uh I mean.
.
you can't.
'""˜And why not?!' His wolf was starting to get pissed as well.
""˜Because uh I'm sick?' It sounded more like a question.
""˜What? Are you okay? Do you need to go to the pack doctor? Oh my gosh my baby.
I'm coming to take you right now!'I giggled.
""˜No Axel.
Stay put I'm fine.
The girls are taking care of me.
' I rushed.
""˜I'm still coming to see you.
'""˜No you aren't.
'""˜Yes I am.
I'll be there in 10 minutes.
Stay put.
' He said the last part sternly.
""˜We need to run!' I yelled at Faith.
""˜I know this.
I want it to be a surprise.
'""˜Me too.
I have an idea!'""˜Speak women! I need details!' Faith yelled laughing.
""˜We can get Tristan and Stephan to hide me until dinner tonight.
Which is in about 2 hours.
So I can take my clothes and such with me.
'""˜Brilliant.
Hurry up and call them!'""˜Okay okay.
Jeez calm down.
' I said laughing.
She rolled her eyes playfully.
""˜Stephan! Tristan!' I yelled through the link.
""˜What?! Are you okay?!' They both yelled concerned.
""˜Axel is coming! He's extremely pissed that he can't see me so he is like I'm coming in 10 minutes.
Hide me! He will be able to smell me! Help!' I pleaded.
They chuckled at me practically begging them.
""˜Okay.
Come downstairs and bring your clothes.
You can hide out at Amber's until the dinner.
We will call her and tell her why you will be coming.
'""˜Thankyou thankyou thankyou!'""˜You're welcome.
' They laughed.
""That was close!"" Amber said plopping down on her bed.
""I know!"" I said plopping down next to her.
""It's a good thing you got out of there.
I'm already starting to smell you.
"" She laughed.
""Just great.
Everyone will be able to tell when we arrive at dinner.
"" ""Make up and excuse.
Say like, umm you got a new perfume.
"" ""That's brilliant.
Thankyou so much Amber!"" I yelled tackling her in a hug.
""Hey, what are sisters for.
"" She laughed.
""You're the best.
I'm glad I have you guys as sisters.
"" I said.
""And we are glad we have you too.
"" ""I can't believe you girls are laying down when we have a very important dinner to attend to tonight!"" I look up and see Elyse, Katie, Jordan, and Jaz laughing while Taylor is freaking out.
""Come on let's get ready! We don't have all day!"" She yelled dragging me into the bathroom and throwing my dress at me.
I was putting my dress on when I heard Axel.
Oh come on people! Give me a break.
Just this once? ""˜I thought I told you I stay put.
' He growled out.
""˜Axel I'm fine.
You can't see me right now.
'""˜Why not?!'""˜Because you will see me at dinner tonight.
'""˜No I want to see you now.
'""˜Axel you will.
'""˜No.
I mean now!'""˜Calm down!'""˜Skylar.
' He growled out.
""˜Axel.
' I growled back.
""˜We are talking when we get home.
Why are you so moody all of the sudden.
'""˜Whatever.
And because.
'""˜Don't say whatever to me!'""˜I just did.
'""˜Skylar.
Tell me what's going on.
' He demanded.
""˜I can't right now.
Got to go get ready.
Love you babe.
' I cut him off before he could reply.
I slipped on my black dres
s that goes a little over my mid thigh.
It's strapless and has a nice white, lace bow that goes around my waist.
I slipped on my some white heels that have straps as well and Amber has finally finished my hair.
She put my hair into a loose fishtale so it hung over my left shoulder, and clipped my bangs back.
Next Elyse did my make up.
She gave me a smokey eyeshadow look and now I am ready.
The girls look incredible.
""Oh.
My.
Gosh.
You guys look hot!"" I screamed laughing.
""Why thankyou kind lady.
"" Jordan said using a fake British accent.
We all died of laughter and made our way to the car.
We were meeting at my parents house this time.
""Skylar! You're so grown up!"" My mom said bringing me into a crushing bear hug.
""Mom careful.
"" I said quietly.
She pulled away and looking at me worried.
""What's wrong?"" ""Oh nothing.
"" I said and I smiled at her.
She giggled and then looked at me weird.
""Is that a new perfume?"" ""Yes it is.
"" I said winking at Amber.
She chuckled and we all walked inside.
""My baby girl is back! Is Axel behaving himself?"" He asked sternly.
Oh fathers these days""¦""Yes dad.
He is behaving himself.
"" I smiled and gave him a hug.
""You need to visit more young lady.
"" His eyes staring into mine.
I nodded and kissed his cheek.
He smiled warmly and brought us over to the table.
Axel, Mark, Caleb, and Ryan were all heading over.
Axel made Turner, Stephan, and Tristan do patrol.
He was gonna have Ryan do it with them, but I must say""¦Elyse put up a pretty good fight.
So now Ryan is coming to dinner.
""Hey sis.
"" Carter says pulling me into a hug when him, Austin, and Spencer walk into the dining room.
""Hey.
"" I replied back and hugging him as well.
""Don't forget your favorite twins.
"" Spencer said smiling while both him and Austin gave me a hug.
""No that would be us.
Well I guess I mean me.
"" Ryan said while walking over to us.
""Hey dude.
"" Carter said smiling.
""Hey.
"" Ryan said smiling back.
The rest of the guys walked in and my eyes landed on Axel.
He looked""¦.
well pissed.
""Heads up.
"" Mark said quickly before going over to Jaz who was smiling like crazy at the sight of him.
Genial.
""We need to talk when we get home.
"" He said pissed off.
""Axel I can explain.
"" ""Good.
You can start now.
