Alpha Loren

Chapter 24 A Cold Morning

October 16th

The next morning was different from usual. I was cold and the space next to me normally occupied by

Leo was empty. I crawled out from under the covers and wandered out of the open door and stood at

the top of the stairs. I could hear voices coming from Leo's office: Blair, Antonio and Leo.

"So what's the deal with Ella?" I heard Antonio say.

"Just ask what you really want to ask Dad," Leo groaned, "We're all adults here and I don't have all

day."

There was a pause, "Why haven't you had sex with your mate yet?"

"Because she's resisting me," Leo replied frankly, "She stops me before we get far."

"Why?" Antonio probed.

"She doesn't like who I am so she's refusing to let me have a fuck," Leo said.

"What the hell has happened to you, Son?" Antonio asked. "You never had issues getting women into

your bed before. Why can't you get your own mate to sleep with you?!"

"She is very determined not to give me what I want," I said, "And she's stubborn and hard-headed. It

may take a while to get it."

"It sounds like she's playing games and you're just playing along," Antonio said, "But you are Alpha.

You can't afford to fuck around. You need an heir to take your place preferably before you are forty and

you are already twenty three."

"It hasn't even been a week," Leo said.

"Well how long are you going to let it go on for?" Antonio asked, "She could resist you for years and

you'd just accept are.

Leo paused, "Are you suggesting I should fucking rape her?"

"If she won't co-operate then you need to show her who is in charge," Antonio replied.

"Alpha, I couldn't help but notice that you don't have any problems seducing her," Blair said.

I cringed.

The car.

The time Leo nearly made me cum in the back of Blair car.

"She may be strong-willed but I believe you could very easily persuade her to consent to mate any time

you like," Blair continued.

There was a very tense pause.

"So Leo?" Antonio asked, "What's stopping you?"

Another moment of silence.

"You have her wolf wrapped around your finger," Antonio said, "Just fuck her."

"Ella is my mate so it is my business," Leo growled eventually, "What happens between us and when is

none of neither of you's business. I apologise that you witnessed that Blair but from now on, we are not

discussing this."

There was silence for a bit before the office door opened and Antonio and Blair both walked out. Leo

stayed in his office. As soon as they had closed the front door I came down the stairs and slowly

entered his office. Leo was sat in his chair behind the desk staring at the floor.

"Leo?" I asked softly.

"I'm guessing you heard all of that." He sighed lifting his head to look at me.

"I feel like the whole forest did," I replied nodding my head down.

"Come here," He said patting his knee. I slowly approached him and cuddled myself into his warmth.

"You're freezing," He said wrapping his arms around me.

"Why are they on your case," I asked resting my head on his shoulder.

He let out a big sigh and kissed my cheek, "They are concerned that you're...unconventional..."

"Am I?" I asked.

"Very," he replied with a smile.

"What was that about needing an heir?"

"Our son will take the Alphaship when he's seventeen. They worry that if we wait too long, I'll be too old

by the time that day comes, leaving the pack vulnerable. They say Alphas want to be handing down

their titles when they're about forty or younger."

I sighed, "And you're twenty-three. That means they want me to have a baby in the next year."

He nodded. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

"But you would never do what your Dad was suggesting, right?" I asked.

"Rape you? No," he said, "Never."

"So we'll keep taking it slowly, yes? I won't deny it, my wolf wants you. But the other half of me wants to

wait so you won't take advantage...will you?"

There was a pause before he finally shook his head.

"No," he said in a strained tone.

I gave him a small smile, "Thank you."
