10 1440Words Parker Parker sat there at that table staring right at his Goddess-Gifted.
He knew he should be all over her, or wanting to be.
He could smell her, and he knew touching her would give off those mate bond sparks as well, which would help to create a wanton need in him.
But he was actually unhappy with her attitude right that minute, the very words she had just stated, I dont care about those rules.
That bothered him greatly.
He was one to follow all the rules, doing so, kept the peace.
Kept him and his packs out of trouble, and doing so could even prevent wars from happening.
This she-wolf who was his Goddess-Gifted Mate, he now knew, didnt seem to have the same values that he did; that could be a very big problem.
He could see that they were going to fight over it at some point.
Hell, they were practically fighting right this very minute, here in the pack dining room in front of his pack members who were there having lunch, likely listening to everything that was said.
He could see them all looking at him and now her, because she was being very vocal about who she was to him, and was completely uncaring of the rules, of his exit clauses to his mating alliance with his former Luna.
She was uncaring of how he might be feeling even though she knew he had just suffered through a rejection.
She, right this very minute, was showing him that only her feelings seemed to matter.
Where was the compassion for ones Mate, she didnt look to have any at all, and he understood it must be difficult for her to know he had a Luna.
But she was also wolfen and should understand that Alphas do taken Chosen Mates at times, to prevent wars; which is what hed told her.
His and Belladonnas mate bond was a pack deal to prevent a war between him and another pack.
Parker thought she was ticked off because when she had scented him out, he already had a Mate, and she hadnt understood how that was possible, because she was his Goddess-Gifted, so in her mind he should still be unattached.
It hadnt gone down so well in that pack of hers.
Not with her or her father for that matter, they had both demanded to know what the hell was going on.
Hed stated simply I have a Mate by a mating alliance, it had been the truth of the matter.
When hed asked for that basic, Ill get to know her agreement, not a mating alliance with Carina that, had not gone down so well either.
Though hed been honest as to why, stated point blankly that from what hed seen of Carina at that mating ball.
She didnt appear to have the Luna qualities that he was looking for.
Her father had snarled at him and Carina had looked at him incredulously, and yelled right at him You dont know me.
To which hed just nodded and then stated, Hence the getting to know you, agreement.
It was a basic deal where she would live within the pack for one month, to see if they could get along, to see if she was going to make a good Luna, hed worded it though If shell treat all my pack members with respect, including the omegas.
He had to be cautious.
He was an Alpha to a wolf pack conglomerate, not just one pack, but many under his rule spread out over the state, and most knew of him and how wealthy he was.
So, patience and watching were key for him.
Those very words which hed chosen with full purpose had made Carina glare at him.
He was highly doubtful but was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt at the same time, seeing as she was his Goddess-Gifted, and an Alpha shouldnt reject one without due cause.

Her father and stated after seeing her out of the office Alpha Parker, I admit that I spoiled my little girl rotten, probably way too much.
Shes my only daughter.
She is a good girl, just raised by me.
Her mother died when she was very little.
Please do give her a chance.
Shes strong and beautiful, and will make you a good Luna, Im certain of it.
Just… the man had sighed a little and had shrugged, Needs to be made to submit to you, Id say, is very dominant and, due to my spoiling her, she is very used to getting everything she wants.
That is on me.
Hed seen just about everything in life when it came to unruly spoiled ranked members, male and female, hed even seen that a Goddess-Gifted could turn their whole lives around.
So, it was possible that Carina could very well change, once she was Marked and Mated by him.
It was likely that some of this attitude he was getting now, and had been getting since theyd scented each other out, was due to the fact that he was already claimed by another, and she was simply very unhappy about it.
She was also probably going to have this attitude up until Belladonna was out of the pack altogether.
Only then would she be able to truly relax.
Its very likely shed taken one look at Belladonna and seen her as a threat to her status as his Mate; and she was right to.
Hed not once said anything bad or demeaning about Belladonna, the entire time theyd been coming home.
Carina had snapped at him twice on the way here Do you love her? and been very angry when asking him that question.
Hed looked at her and said nothing at all; by way of answering the question, he had stated calmly I dont like your attitude.
I wont take being yelled at either Carina.
Ive explained the situation to you.
and he had.
She just refused to accept it, or didnt want to believe him, he supposed.
He wondered if she thought he had lied about it.
Show me around.
Carina stated and stood up.
How about you ask me nicely, I am the Alpha Carina.
You dont get to make demands of me.
Im your mate and equal.
I can tell you… she was grating out at him.
Parker cut her off by standing up abruptly himself, his chair tipping over and clattering to the floor.
You are not my equal unless I claim you, and so far, Im not seeing anything in you that wants to make me claim you.
Youre no different to how you were at the mating ball.
Ill not claim and mark you, make you my Luna to this pack if I dont think youll be nice to my pack members.
He stated.
You might want to check your attitude.
And then he had left her there, walked away from her, he couldnt deal with her right this minute.
All he really wanted was to be alone, and he knew it, she was not in any way helping to ease his pain, as a mates presence should be able to do.
She was only showing him that he should have rejected his Goddess-Gifted and never told Belladonna about finding her.
If hed done that, Belladonna would still be his Mate and Luna right this minute.
Hell, theyd be up there in her suite completely naked, and he would be blissfully happy, making love to the woman he actually loved.
He had to shake it off, there would be no more of that, Belladonna was no longer his to have.
She was free to be with whoever she wanted to be with from now on, she was going to be leaving this pack in 24 hours, and he couldnt even ask her where she was going.
Didnt even know if she knew where she was going.
Did she have a plan or was she just going to leave and return to her home pack? He thought about that.
Their alliance stated he was to never return to that pack, and that they wouldnt ever come here.
That Belladonna would find another pack to go to after the rejection was issued.
Not to return home to her father.
That was odd, hed not thought about it back then.
Only did it now because he wanted to know that she would be safe
