The Alpha Who Saved Me

CHAPTER 142

Declan

I never expected the change within myself. As soon as our mate bond snaps into place, I feel it, the slow build of pressure, and I never let my eyes never leave Quinn. I thought this was mainly about her, I mean, of course, she needs her fated mate to take her rightful place, but I never expected to change with her. The legend always talked about its Queen, so assumingly, we as their mate were insignificant, but now I’m starting to wonder whether that is true.

When the others mention our size, and I see for myself how tall Duke has gotten, it’s surprising, sure, but not as much as learning that Quinn and I can actually talk in our wolf form. That really throws me for a loop! I’ve never heard of it happening and to be honest, it kind of freaks me out a little bit…a talking wolf?

Now, the mating and the marking part is the best thing that has ever happened to me, aside from having my son, of course. I now feel whole, and I never felt as though I wasn’t, but the feeling in indescribable. When Quinn marked me, I could feel everything; every heartfelt moment, every moment of sadness, and there were many, and every bit of pain that she has gone through in her young life, I feel it all. The love she’s had for me for the past two years, along with what she felt and still feels for my cousin, it’s all there. How one young woman can go through all of that and still come out as strong as she has; I just don’t know how she does it. All I know is that she has me now, to help her through it all, and I plan on making sure she is happy for the rest of her life.

Watching her deal with Lila, challenging her for her title, almost has

me pulling her back to the house for another round. My mate is a force to be reckoned with and I feel sorry for anybody that crosses her path in the future. Tala and Quinn are a perfect fit as human and wolf, neither one takes any s*it and man do they have a mouth on them, not to mention neither one blink an eye when someone needs to be taken out. I’ve witnessed it and let me tell you, I’m glad that I’m her mate and that she loves me unconditionally.

I’m just watching my mate in awe as she handles Lila, but then the she-b*tch’s next words catch my attention, “What about our son, Alpha?”

The hairs on the back of my neck rise as Duke tries to come forward but I hold him back, “You have never been his mother. You were his incubator and that’s all, Queen Quinn is his mother.” I glance at Quinn proudly. The fact that she has stepped up, even not knowing whether we were mates or not, and gave her time and attention to my son, to our son; I just have no words for it.

I pay no attention to her outburst at my response as I gaze at Quinn, and how she is carrying herself as she deals with this nuisance. I let her take my hand and pull me away as she reminds the soon to be denounced Luna about being ready. It’s almost as though I have some kind of spell on me; I can’t keep my attention from Quinn.

When we finally hit the fresh air, I get a little bit of my senses back, but I’m still hungry for my mate, “We still have forty-five minutes until we meet with the pack, let’s go back to the house.”

She giggles, “We can’t because if we do, we both know that we will not come up for air again for a while. Let’s just take care of what we need to take care of, and you can have me all to yourself.”

Duke’s grow! is loud, “I want my mate!”
