Chapter 7

Mason

My mate is so f*uc*king hot when she goes all Alpha on the Council Elders and the Alphas who don’t appreciate what it means to be a true Alpha.

Title of the document

I give her the space to make her point, but much like she calmed me earlier, it’s time for me to do the same for her. I don’t care if the Alphas in this room hate us. There isn’t much they can do. My pack is stronger than most of theirs and my mate is stronger than most of them.

Elder Jason takes control of the meeting after that and while we catalog the total number of she-wolves and what packs they are in, we avoid the discussion of childbearing ages, pregnancies and planned pregnancies.

That night, our group decides to go out to dinner, to get the girls away from all of the frustrations of the other Alphas. Jara feels comfortable including Alpha Luke and Alpha Zaire and Zaire asks me about bringing Alpha Saul. He is another Alpha that claimed his mate several years ago. He and his mate have an underaged daughter and there is another female in their pack who has an underaged daughter. Alpha Zaire felt that he would fit in nicely with our group and since we’re trying to get as many Alphas on board as possible, we agree.

Dinner ends up being an enjoyable affair. Our mates sit with us, and it changes the dynamics of the conversations. Both Alpha Saul and Alpha Zaire say that their mates would like to participate in these types of events when Annabel asked them. And somehow, Alpha Saul recognized that Mignon was pregnant.

“There are signs, differences in how we treat our mate when she is pregnant.” He turns to Alpha Zaire. “Wouldn’t you agree, Zaire?”

“Yes, I had noticed the same thing.”

“What kind of signs?” Jara asked.

Zaire, who is sitting next to her, leans toward her. “See how he’s always leaning toward her, in a protective stance? It’s not just protective, but instinctively, he’s listening for his pup’s heartbeat. And his arm always around some part of her body? That’s in case something happens, and he needs to get her out of harm’s way quickly. Eventually, probably once it’s more well known that she’s carrying his pup, he won’t be able to keep his hands off her stomach, always wanting to touch not only his mate, but his pup as well. And she, the pup, will respond to his touch.”

“Why do I feel like you’re giving all of my secrets away over there?” Asher says to Zaire and Jara.

“Maybe he is, but it’s good knowledge. Something that might be helpful with our petition.”

“Your petition? What petition?” Alpha Saul asks.
