Book 1 of Alpha Wolf: Mate Mine

“You don’t need to relocate right now… I mean, you can spend sometimes here, as much as you want of course, and then, when you are ready, you can finally move… and well, we can even decorate Giulia’s room before you move in, so she could stay with us, especially at the beginning.” Crucifero said shyly, looking at the floor.

“Crucifero!” Marco laughed which made him look up in confusion. “You are rambling!”

“Mmh” He scratched the back of his neck as felt his cheeks and ears heated in embarrassment.

“I love it when you blush,” Marco smirked, placing his palms on his chest.

“Shut up.” Crucifero grinned, peppering his jawline and neck with hot kisses.

Then Marco realised what he had said before…so he cupped his face and kissed him passionately… His wonderful mate made sure they had a spared room for Giulia! Since he knew how much brother and sister love each other!

‘But wait! How about poor, mateless Rex?!’ He asked himself.

“Ok but we will also need a room for Rex, since he will come basically all the time!” Marco breathed out, after their third make-out session was over.

“Argh, he can sleep in our guest room. There is no need to have an entire room available just for him!” Crucifero grunted, before furrowing.

“And how about Elena? Don’t you want her at our place too? Wasn’t she your best friend? I swear god, if something had happened between the two of you in the past, before you were gay, and I discover that you haven’t told me, I will kill her!” He roared as his nostrils flared.

Marco gaped. ‘Is he serious?! Me and Elena?!’ He burst into loud laughter, patting him on the shoulder.

“Come on, don’t be ridiculous! Plus, I have been gay since I could remember!”

Crucifero smiled at Marco, his mate’s laugh was music for his ears!

“You haven’t answered my question yet! Why wouldn’t we need a room for Elena while for Rex and Giulia yes?”

“Because, you dummy, she won’t need a room at our home.” Marco smirked mysteriously.

“Since she will be staying somewhere veeeeery near!” he giggled as if he was hiding something.

Ohhh!

‘Well, well…it looks like my dear mate knows about my Alpha’s little secret too…’ Crucifero thought, chuckling internally.

Crucifero wrapped his massive arms around his mate’s waists.

“No, she won’t need it at all.” Eventually he admitted, receiving a grimace from Marco.

“So, you have knew it all this time and never bothered to tell me?!” He seemed outraged and offended as he tried to escape from his mate’s arms...

In vain, since Crucifero had no intention of ending their hug so soon.

Crucifero sighed at that, shaking his head in exasperation.

Marco was the perfect companion, the love of his life, however he ate gossip for breakfast and Crucifero did not want to spread Mirko’s business. Not even with his mate.

“Well yes, I know they are mates, but Alpha…” However, he couldn’t finish since Marco had puffed his chest to imitate Crucifero and started to tease loudly. “Alpha here, Alpha there! My Alpha is the best, blah blah blah! Come on, give me a break, mate!”

Rolling his eyes, Crucifero groaned playfully. “Ok, so what’s the problem, since you already knew that they are mates!”

“I didn’t know! She has never said a word to me! Thanks for confirming it by the way!” Marco exclaimed as Crucifero rolled his eyes again.

‘What a pest!!’

“I sniffed Alpha Mirko’s scent all over her…so I have assumed that they are mates… Uuuuh, I can’t believe that little minx didn’t say anything to me!!” He was getting angry and turning red like a pepper.

“Oh… As soon as I see her, I will scold her sooo much that she will think twice before keeping something so big away from me! Her best friend!”

“I thought Rex was her best friend…” Crucifero pointed out, pensive.

“Shush you, mate! I’m the best friend of all my friends!” Marco punched Crucifero on the shoulder cheerfully. “Don’t you already know?!”

“Okok. Yes, of course you are, my love. Of course!” Crucifero chuckled, raising his hands in defeat before hugging him again.

“And, by the way, I have also smelled him all over her!” Crucifero affirmed, shaking his head at the idea of Mirko with a real mate. Sure, she seemed to possess the right amount of sweetness and feistiness, required to keep up with the Alpha. But still, Mirko was Black Alpha...

“He damned made sure his smell was well spread on his mate.”

Marco giggled at his mate’s words before adding: “I can’t wait to see Alpha Giacomo’s face when he hears the fantastic news! It is better for your precious Alpha to hide his ‘jewels’ .”

Crucifero laughed at that “We need to remember to buy pop corns for the ‘show’! I have never thought I’ll see my Alpha having father-in-law’s issues!”

After some more giggles, Marco sighed in content.

“All of this is so perfect. We’ll be together all the time as soon as Elena moves here with your Alpha! Imagine! Oooh, and how I wish Giulia’s mate also belonged to your pack!”

Then he became thoughtful, reflecting on his own words.

“Although I’m not really sure to want my adorable little sister to be paired with a Black Devil’s beast!”

Marco seemed thoughtful, reflecting on what was better: having his sister with him but paired with a Black Devil’s wolf or not having her in the same pack but paired with an ‘easier’ companion?!

Hard choices.

“Black Devil’s beast, uhm?” Crucifero repeated, staring at his mate with ravenous eyes.

Marco gulped as he grabbed Crucifero’s biceps, leaning forward.

“Yea, beast. That’s what I just said.” Marco confirmed, teasingly.

Marco’s words made Crucifero groan as a wave of arousal crossed him.

“Mmmh, I think someone needs a punishment ... for calling us beasts.” Crucifero murmured in his mate’s ears, loving the smell of his excitement.

“Yes, I need one so badly” Marco moaned, looking into his beautiful eyes. They were filled with lust and love.

Crucifero chuckled darkly, pressing his lips to the mark on his companion’s neck.

“Let’s go inside our new house ... to inaugurate it ... and I’ll show you the real beast,” he proposed in a hoarse voice.

Hearing those illicit words, Marco shivered with anticipation and excitement, throwing his arms around his love’s neck.

“Oh yeah! I want to ‘inaugurate’ every single room of our future home.”
