Filed to story: The Omega Destiny
I walk with little woll down to the mess hall. We both steal side eye glances at each other along the way. I look upon her in awe of her beauty. Also, with a fear she will bolt. She probably looks upon me with a fear I will break her heart again. Both of us of afraid of the same things. Both of us not knowing where to go from here. I know where I want to go but need to take a gentle approach. I will remain gentle as long as she doesn’t attempt to drag this divide but too much longer. I need my mate. My luna. My luna of lunas. I flash her my dimples every time I catch her looking to reming her of one of my parts, she loves the most. I plan on burying the rest of my parts she loves, deep within her soon. Hopefully. I flash the dimples, she blushes. It is a cycle we are repeating along the way there and I enjoy it..
I can’t remember the last time Late in the mess hall. Most of my time is spent having meals in my office while I work and plan. 1 haven’t had time to sit and eat with the pack mates that live here, not outside of a celebration, in fates knows how long. I hold the door open for little wolf and lead her into the dining hall. Chatter starts to go quiet as my pack mates watch us enter. I am sure they are just as shocked as I am, but I wanted to get little wolf out of her room and her mind off of rejecting me. If I keep her busy maybe I can turn this around. I just need to keep worshipping her as my luna until she sees reason. With eyes following us, I lead little wolf over to an empty table and pull out a chair for her. “Thank you,” she whispers, and I take the opportunity to flash the dimples again and flex my forearms a little unnecessarily while scooting, her chair in. She notices.
“Why is everyone looking at us?” she asks nervously. “I believe they are staring at you because you are stunning and myself because I cannot remember the last time I ate in here.” I take a seat next to her, my back to the crowd so I can watch the door, an old habit of mine. My dad always said to never put your back to a door, and I don’t intend to start. I can sense her anxiousness, reaching my hand under the tablecloth and setting my hand over her knee, gently squeezing. I am sure rumors will abound now that we are together in the open. I am not quite sure how to handle the questions yet regarding my luna but until she is ready, they need not know.
Alpha Thane, what an honor to have you down here with us. What can I get for you?” Monica asks and turns to little wolf with a big smile on her face, one little wolf returns. I am sure they missed each other. “Ayla I am glad you are feeling better. Alpha said you haven’t been well this past week. Will you be back in the kitchen soon?” “Yes” she nods “No” I say. we both answer together causing Monica’s eyes to go wide and little wolf to narrow hers at me. “Sorry Monica, we haven’t discussed that. Can you bring us two breakfast platters, a doughnut and some juice please?” “Yes alpha.”
“What do you mean we haven’t discussed it, Thane? What is there to discuss? I like my job in the kitchen. You can’t take that from me.” she huffs, and I have to hold back my smile. She is adorable when she is irritated. “Ayla, we will finish this conversation when we return to your rooms. The ears are all hearing here.” I remind her of our shifter hearing, she probably isn’t used to thinking about her heightened senses since she has gone so long without them. She nods but looks down at her hands in her lap defeated. “I am sorry little wolf. We will get this all sorted out.” I squeeze her leg again, trying to offer her some calm reassurance. I have to remember that just eating in here with me is a big step for her and I don’t want to overwhelm her.
Here you go alpha. Two platte and your drinks.” “Thank you, Mon I notice little wolf hasn’t revealed to her only friend that she can talk. Interesting. She must be fearful and still attempting to humb her emotions. Something I will need to rectify, thus making me a hypocrite but I didn’t have a mate before, so maybe I will be different now. The thought of feeling my grief has me deciding quickly that I won’t be different. “Dig in little wolf. It will ease me to see my ma…you..see you eat. I haven’t seen it since you were in your wolf form, and she is quite the messy eater.” I laugh to myself, and little wolf smack my chest with the back of her hand. I can get used to this playful side of her, “I was trapped in my fur bag for five days. I saw how she ate. She needs practice.” “Fur bag huh? That is much too derogatory for your wolf. She is the host beautiful, elegant wolf I have ever seen. Even when she has food flying all over the place.”
My mate bond is starting to ache in my chest. I don’t know if little wolf can feel it, but the bond will start calling us together more forcefully until it is either sealed or rejected. I catch her rubbing her chest out of the corner of her eye and realize she feels it too. “Here little wolf. Let me cut up your food. It will help ease the bond if we are taking care of each other.” I whisper in her ear and watch a little shiver rack through her body. So responsive for me. Perfect for me, I cut up her meat and load up her fork. It takes everything out of me to not actually feed her myself, but that will have to wait until we are alone, or the pack knows. She reaches reful herself. “You are right. It is helping.” “I am right little wolf over and pours my juice into a cup for me and brings it close, usually am.”
We continue to eat our breakfast in private when the smell of lemons assaults my senses. I don’t even have to look up to see that Della is headed this way with her tray. “Thane, since when do you eat down here?” she asks through gritted teeth attempting the fakest smile I have ever seen. How have I been so blind? “Since today Della.” She walks around the table and sits her tray down directly across from little wolf. Della has no idea what she is doing. She has no idea Ayla is my fated mate and her luna. She needs to tread carefully because I don’t think I can handle any disrespect from her. This bond is unsettled, we are more agitated and possessive. Hopefully it calms down after we claim each other. “Della I don’t think sitting here is such a good idea.” “Why? We are just friends. Childhood friends. It isn’t like you threw me away the second this she wolf got her nails into you. Oh wait. You did. I remember you threatening to rip my throat out if I didn’t leave your office.” I can feel little wolf’s teal eyes burning holes into Della. Della however is staring at me, completely ignoring little wolf.
“Della, it would be best if you leave. We can talk about this later in private. We don’t need to discuss this here.” Della smiles at me and turns towards Ayla. She smiles at her as well and gets up from the table, grabbing her tray of food. She stands next to me and places a hand down on my shoulder causing an immediate growl deep within little wolfs chest, Aramana close to the surface. I have no doubt she would tear Della’s arms off and beat her with them. “Go Della.” I say sternly as she walks away towards the kitchen. I turn back to look at my mate, to find her glaring at me. “What is wrong little wolf?”
Ayla
The fight I am having with my well to remain seated and to stay calm is close to coming out hand. She is warring within me to dominate Della. To stake her claim to her mate. I have no doubt that if allowed to, Aramana would finish Della off for even looking at Thane wrong. I try to get myself under control, feeling my glare urn to a look of disappointment. He is my fated mate, yet he agreed to meed Della privately to discuss the situation at hand. The situation being our mate bond and his apparent involvement with her. He didn’t stand up for me at all. Never mentioned the bond to her. My heart is sad at my perceived betrayal. I know that he is the alpha and he has to remain diplomatic and handle Della like any other member, but I also don’t trust either of them right now. He had so intense feelings for me, that he allowed Della on his lap and over his desk. I don’t understand it. Instead of having this conversation with him, I just want to leave.
I get up from the table and walk past Thane. I need to get out of here. I am starting to get anxious, and I don’t even know why. “Ayla wait. Where are you going? Come back,” he says while head down the hall and to the elevator, I could run up the stairs or even outside, but I know that he would catch up so hopefully I can get in the elevator and get the door shut before he gets to me. Yeah right.
Thane tugs on my elbow gently and turns me to face him. I can’t bring myself to look at him right now. He is my fated mate and all I can see in my head is Della in front of him presented. She isn’t even an omega. I see that image any time I even think of her. Oh, my fates! Does Thane’s imagination take him to images of me with other men when he thinks about being intimate with me? Me strapped down to a bed with disgusting alphas surrounding me. I can feel the bile climbing up my throat and I have to stave off the urge to vomit.
Hey, stay with me little wolf. I didn’t think it was possible for you to get any paler, but you are. What are you thinking about? Whatever it is, you are safe with me. Don’t go there little wolf. I am here, right now.” I look up at him, trying to calm myself and fighting with my emotions. “Every time I see Della, I will always have the memory of her over your desk in my head. It hurts Thane. So much.” I know Ayla. I am sorry. I am so freaking sorry. I don’t regret much in my life, but I regret that. It shouldn’t have happened. I know you don’t want to talk about it all, but we need to. I need you little wolf.” He takes my hand and brings it up to his heart. “You feel that? It only beats for you. You are my perfect half. Predestined for me by the fates. Nobody else matters. You are my world now and I will be damned if I let anyone else come in and try to screw it up. You want her gone? I will make her transfer.” Do I want her gone? That isn’t fair of me to show up at this pack, steal her perceived man and force her out without her family and leave behind everything. I have lost everything, I don’t wish that on someone else.” “No, No, that isn’t what I want. I just can’t see her right now. It is too soon.”
We step into the elevator and at to heat up. Thane has me backed up against the rear wall and rune his fingers up the back of my hair and cupt the back of my head. “I am sorry you had to see her little wolf, I thought it would be good to get you out of your room, but apparently not. I would do anything for you. I want you to know that. When I pulled you out of that damn cage I knew, looked into your eyes, and I just knew that you were different. That you were special. That you were mine. I could feel it, I just didn’t know what it was. My wolf wants you Ayla. We want our fated mate. We want this bond. We want our Lund. I am sorry little wall. When I was with her, I thought of you, i thought of you that first night you were here while I was with her. I thought of your silky, snow white skin. I thought of those stunning teal eyes and your pouty lips. I thought about those pouty lips wrapped around my cock.”
I don’t want to hear about him with Della, but he is certainly distracting me with his foul mouth, pine scent and thick muscles under his tight black shirt stretched a crossed his tan skin. Before I realize it, a whine escapes me and it suddenly dawns on me that now that I have my wolf back, I will have my omega instincts as well I remember learning about them before I was taken, but t hope it comes second nature to us when we need it. I just want Atana and 1 to be connected and working as one unit with two halves.
