He’s My Alpha by Cassandra M (Jake & Clair)
Chapter 42
Jake
I woke up with a soft body against my torso and my nose automatically sank into her neck, letting her smell consume me while sparks traveled all over my body. It would be nice to wake up next to her every day. I moaned hungrily and found my lips starting to nibble and suckle her skin, making her stir but she remained sleeping.
I felt my d*ic*k coming to life, but before I could do more, I heard soft knocks on my door.
My body automatically jerked up from the bed as I palmed my face!
F*uc*k! This will be messy!
I got up from my bed and put on my sweatpants before grabbing the blanket to cover Clair from head to toe. I had no idea what I was trying to achieve, only that I hoped not to wake her up yet.
I opened the door slightly, just enough space for the person outside to see me. Standing outside my door was Jenny, a worried expression written on her face while my Gamma and Beta were fast approaching. F*uc*k this!
“Alpha. We’ve been trying not to disturb you but we ’ve been looking for Clair for two hours now. Maybe you can…” She was shifting in her position and I knew she was having a hard time asking me to do something. She knew I hated being commanded.
I cleared my throat and was about to tell all of them to meet me at my office when a shuffling in my back caught all our attention, and a sound of someone yawning sweetly but loudly was heard.
Jenny’s eyes widened in surprise as Aaron stepped on his toes to peer inside the room through me. I let out a sigh and shifted my eyes to Beta Gavin before turning my head around to look at my little mate.
She was stretching one arm, while her other hand clutched the blanket tightly, hiding her n*ake*dness. She seemed clueless about the attention she got.
A smirk formed on my Beta’s lips, he was trying to suppress a full smile from coming out because Aaron was fuming in anger.
“What the f*uc*k, Clair?” Aaron shouted before turning to me.
“How could you? I trust you man!” He pushed me with one hand on my chest before Gavin was able to pull him away. Before he could say and do more, my little mate was already in front of him clutching the blanket tightly to cover her up.
“Shut up, Aaron! Let me put my clothes first! And then we’ll talk!” She snarled at her brother before shutting the door in their faces.
She then looked at me, determination showing on her face. “I’ll handle this. I just need clothes.”
She walked towards my cabinet and started going through my clothes before picking up a big shirt and boxers, and then heading to my bathroom, slamming the door shut.
Clair
I opened the bathroom door after I freshened up myself, wearing Jake’s shirt and boxers. I saw marks on my neck and thighs but had no way to hide them, so I just had to own up to them.
I stopped in front of him and just looked at his face. He didn’t look worried at all. If anything, he looked relaxed and calm. But I could live with that. It was better than seeing regret, or worse, resentment, in his eyes.
“I’m ready,” I told him, to which he replied with just a curt nod.
I took a deep sigh before turning on my heel and opening his bedroom door, ready to face my brother.
As expected, all heads turned to the door when I stepped out of it, followed by Jake.
I stood in front of Aaron and crossed my arms against my chest, my gaze looking straight at him. ” I don’t know why you’re angry. Whatever happened last night was consensual. So don’t make a big fuss about it. Okay?”
Aaron’s nose flared again as he glared at me. ” Consensual? That’s a f*uc*king lie! He took advantage of you! He could have locked himself and avoided you at all cost but of course, he’s a f*uc*k boy! He’d been waiting to f*uc*k you all this time!” He shouted, pointing at Jake behind me.
I heard Jake growl as he walked past me and pushed Aaron, holding him against the wall to keep him still. “Watch your mouth or I’ll make sure you won’ t be able to talk again!11 He warned him as his eyes dilated into black.
Beta Gavin stood between them before Jake could do more. The beta stopped him from hitting my brother.
“Stop! Please stop!” I couldn’t hold it anymore. I knew it was all my fault but I never thought I had to be embarra*s*sed this way.
“I’m not a kid anymore Aaron! I did what I had to do. Stop embarra*s*sing me!” I shouted at him.
“No! Clair, I told you to be careful! So what, after this, do we just all forget and move on?” He shoved Jake’s hand off him while the Beta pulled Jake away from him.
“So what’s your problem with this?” I rushed forward, after the Beta stepped to the side, taking Jake with him. I pushed Aaron’s chest with my small hand. “Is this your body? Do you even know how it feels to be in heat? Do you know?” I snarled at him.
I pointed a finger at his chest, pushing it hard while I berated him with my anger. “It’s burning you alive and you wish you could just die, but death doesn’t come easily! It makes you want to stick anything inside you just to calm your senses!”
I step back from him, anger coursing through me as I continuously glare at him, letting the tears fall this time. “You want to hear more? I doubt you want to hear about your sister’s sex drive while she’ s in heat, but let me tell you! I could go out and wait until an unmated man finds me and has his way with me! Or I might get lucky and more men would come and then we could all go with group sex! Amazing, yeah!?
But I went in for the safer one. I just have to choose between the Alpha and the Beta because they are around! And guess what, I don’t know where the Beta’s room is!
Do you want to hear more?! Do you want to embarra*s*s me more?! Then hear this! I knocked at his door!” I pointed my finger at my side where I knew Jake stood.
I heard him growling and knew he was trying to control himself, but I kept talking. “And begged the Alpha to f*uc*k me! And he f*uc*king refused me! But I kept begging!” I couldn’t control all the tears from flowing as all my pent-up emotions about this mate ordeal just came flooding out.
Jenny tried to hold my forearm but I shrugged her hand away.
“Do you know how it feels to beg, Aaron? You don’ t! Let me tell you, it’s embarra*s*sing! I feel so little! This little! I felt like a whore!” I swatted the tears trickling down my face with the back of my palm as Aaron stepped forward to reach for me, but I stepped back and shook my head.
“And you know what’s worsts? This is all happening because my mate doesn’t want me! He f*uc*king doesn’t want me!!! So don’t make a big deal if I spread my legs to anyone who wants a piece of me because I’m nothing special anymore!” I pushed my brother away before I ran out of the
hallway towards the stairs. I just wanted to get away from here.
I was running down the stairs and was about to reach the ground floor when my body stiffened. My father was standing by the entrance door of the pack house. I wasn’t sure if our voices from the third floor were heard at the entrance. Explaining to him would be the last thing I wanted to do right now.
But before I could say anything, he smiled at me and moved out of the way. “Good morning, sweetheart! I prepared breakfast, so better head home now while it’s still warm.”
I nodded and ran past by him, thanking the Moon Goddess that my father didn’t make a fuss over me today. In fact, Dad never tried to go overboard with me anymore after our last fight before I shifted. I guess he learned to trust me, more than my brother did.
