Mates with Alpha Maddox

3

We start walking for a while until we get to the village. I follow Maddox to the big house that I have learned is the Alpha house.

I can feel all eyes on us. Some hungry stares from the unmated wolves. Looks like I am not the only one who notices that they were staring at me since Maddox stops abruptly and pulls me close to him.

"MINE!" He growls loudly and I can hear everyone gasp.

"If I see any unmated males trying anything with her, they will be severely punished! Nobody tries to take what is mine!" He growls and drags me inside.

He slams the door shut and I just stand there looking at him awkwardly while playing with my fingers.

"Jayda baby, Are you hungry?" He asks me softly.

"A little," I shrug.

He grabs hold of my hand and tugs on it softly so I follow him. We enter a huge kitchen, the microwave, stove oven and refrigerator are stainless steel, the island is made of black marvel, same as the counters.

He sits me down on the island then starts looking through the refrigerator.

"What do you want to eat baby?" He asks looking at me with a small smile.

"A sandwich," I say smiling back at him.

"You sure? I can make you whatever you want, my love."

I blush when he calls me his love. "I am sure Maddox, don't worry about it," I say walking up to him and kissing his cheek.

When I am about to pull back he smiles pulling me back and leaving a sloppy kiss on my cheek.

I giggle and then we just stare at each other with goofy grins on our faces.

"I am so glad I found you," he says with truthfulness on his voice.

"Me too."

"What kind of sandwich do you want?"

"Ham and cheese," I say.

"One ham and cheese sandwich coming right up," he says with a cheeky grin and I grin back.

He quickly makes a sandwich and hands it to me.

I eat it quickly and turn to him.

"Thanks for the sandwich, I need to go-" I start but a loud growl cuts me off.

"MINE!!!! You can't leave me! MINE!" He growls pulling me closer and burying his face in the crook of my neck.

I just stare at him dumbfounded.

He pulls away slightly, his eyes are a charcoal black and they look at me with pain deep inside of them.

"Why do you want to leave me?" He whispers brokenly.

"No! I don't want to leave, I just have to go get my stuff" I tell him reassuringly.

"Just send an Omega to get them-"

"No, I want to get my stuff" I say sternly.

He nods and pulls away.

"I'll see you later," I smile and he smiles back kissing my forehead.

He nods, giving him one last hug I walk out the door.

I start looking for my dad when I find him with some lady, must be the tramp he left my mother and I for.

"Beta Leonardo"

He turns around and looks nervously at me "Did you talk to the Alpha? Did he let you stay?" He asks and I nod.

I don't tell him that Maddox is my mate since its not really his problem.

The woman looks at me nervously.

"Sorry for interrupting you and your... wife," I say, distaste clear in my voice.

"No its okay, what do you need?"

"Well I need you to drive me back to the cemetery to get my car, and while I am there you look for any papers I will need to sign to be able to move into one of the houses in the pack village," I say in an emotionless tone.

He nods "Okay, the houses are already furnished," he turns back and looks like he is going to say goodbye to the home wrecker but hesitates.

I roll my eyes and start walking out of the village.

Dad drops me off at the cemetery and I drive to my house.

It was a cozy one story house. When my dad left we had financial issues since he was the main provider, My mom started working as a nurse but had to quit when she got cancer and since I was the only one working we had to move to a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom house.

The first thing I did when I got home was take a quick shower and change into some denim shorts, a blue tank top and blue flip flops.

I sighed and started packing. Maybe this will be good, a fresh start.

While I was packing I dialed Ellie's number multiple times, but she never picked up.

I wanted to tell her that I found my mate and that packs existed and I joined one but I guess that will have to wait.

2 hours later my clothes and personal belongings were all packed.

I called Ellie again, but like before it went to voice mail.

I was getting worried, she always picked up when I called her.

I sighed for what felt like the hundredth time today and started loading my suitcases in the trunk of my old car.

When I got to the pack village I quickly mind-linked my dad to tell him to come.

"The house is ready, all you need is to sign this papers," he hands me a bunch of papers. "Then we take them to the Alpha and once he signs them, then you can go ahead and get settled in your new house," Father says with a small smile.

I nod politely and sit on a bench to start signing the paper.

Once I was done, my dad took the papers and told me to follow him towards the Alpha's office so he could sign the papers.

Dad knocked on an office door and we heard a, "come in."

When Maddox saw me he smiled brightly.

My dad seemed taken back by Maddox's smile, he also looked a little freaked out. I really don't know why though, my mate's smile was perfect.

Maybe he doesn't smile much.

"Beta," he says in acknowledgement. "Jayda, how are you?" He asks looking at me lovingly.

My dad looks at me confused.

"I am good Maddox," I say smiling at him.

My dad tenses as soon as I say his name. He looks like if he is about to have a heart attack.

Maddox just seems amused at my father's reaction.

"Forgive my daughter's disrespect, she is new to the pack life. She didn't know she can't call you by your name Alpha, we just needed you to sign this papers to give her permission to live in the house next to mine in the pack village then we'll be in our way," my dad says politely, bowing his head.

"What?" He roars, "My mate will live with me in this house Beta!"

My dad gasps and gets as pale as a ghost.

"M-mate?" My dad stutters.

"Yes! Jayda is my mate" Maddox says glaring at dad.

Dad gulps. "I am so very sorry Alpha, Jayda had not informed me that she was your mate."

"Why not?" Maddox asks, looking hurt.

"Well, it's not really his business," I state simply.

Maddox looks confused. "He is your father, Jayda," he states and I roll my eyes.

"He abandoned me! When he left 8 years ago he lost all of the rights to be called my dad and to have anything to do with my life, he preferred some tramp over my mom and I--" My dad growls at me for calling his wife a tramp. But as soon as he growls at me, Maddox stands up and at lightning speed is in a protective stand in front of me. "We were both heartbroken but I got over it! Sadly my mom didn't," I say coldly.

"I found my mate!" My dad explains and I roll my eyes at his excuse.

"As soon as I found out about mates I stopped dating," Maddox cuts me off with a growl, probably because of the thought of me dating another guy. "You grew up knowing about mates but you still made my mom fall for you and married her! Then one day you just left and she had to get the divorce papers through the mail! You knew she was human and that one day you would find your mate, but you didn't care because you were a selfish bastard and for that I hate you," I was yelling now. "I hate you so fücking much! You ruined my mom and thanks to you she lived her final years being miserable." When I was done I had tears in my eyes.

"Beta, leave," Maddox boomed.

Dad nodded and left.

Maddox pulled me closer.

I started crying in his chest. I am glad that I got that out of my system. Every time my mom asked me how I felt I told her I was fine, bottling all my feelings towards my dad in and thats why my hate for him kept growing.

Maddox picked me up and brought me to what I think was his room because it had his scent all over it and laid me down on the soft silk sheets. He strips out of his shirt and jeans staying in his black boxers. He Took off my flip flops and laid down next to me, wrapping a protective arm around me. I curled to his side and before falling asleep I whispered, "Thank you." He kissed my forehead and for the first time I felt something I hadn't felt for many years, I felt content.

I felt happy.
