My hidden mate

(Him)

We are in my dad’s office with Logan, Leo, Sage, and my parents. As I told you, mom is leading the pack as much as dad. This is why they’ve waited so long before having another child. Asher is not here as he should and I would like to know where he is.

“Where is Asher?” I question his father.

“He has a competition with Lana. It’s a competition organized at the castle by our Queen Anna-Lynn. As they have accepted the invitation months ago he was not able to cancel.” He explains.

“So what? One competition is more important than a pack meeting. As the future Gamma, he should be here. If he is not taking more seriously his position, I will find another Gamma. Maybe I should ask Clint.” I reply annoyed by his absence.

“Erza!” Mom reprimands me.

Clint is Asher’s little brother and they are not getting along really. They have 17 months age gap but opposite to Logan and Mariana, they are fighting all the time. It's well known by everyone that they hate each other and their parents are suffering from this situation. Propose the Gamma to Clint will be the worst thing I can do, so I really hope that will push Asher to be more involved.

"I will let him know, Future Alpha." Sage replies bending his head. Did I use my Alpha voice?

"Yep!" My wolf comments.

"Sorry, it's just he is according more importance to Lana then the Pack." I tell him.

"I wish to know what is so special about that her?" I ask myself but of course, my wolf has to comment:

"I don't know but we are too drown by her."

"Absolutely not! She is the most annoying girl we have ever met." I totally deny it.

"Yeah, keep lying to yourself." He replies before shutting me out. Sometimes it's really annoying to have a wolf.

"Back to the main reason for this meeting. Ezra, Logan, we would like for you to start to take responsibility in the pack. So from today, you will be managing everything concerning our members under the age of 25. And you will be reporting to us once a week." Dad tells us.

"Wow, thank you, dad! It means a lot that you give us our trust." I reply.

"Yes, Thank you, Alpha for your trust!" Logan adds.

"As for Asher, until you meet your mate, he can't really start. Did you smell her again?" Mom comments.

I sigh and shake my head. I'm starting to be desperate. When will I find her?

"Maybe she is a rogue and she scared that you will reject her." Mom adds.

"I don't know but I know she is here under my nose. I don't know how to explain that but I'm feeling it. This is so frustrating!"

"Then why she is hiding?" Dad asks.

"I don't know!" I put my head in my hands.

"Then maybe you should choose a mate. If she doesn't want to be your mate then she doesn't deserve you." Dad adds.

"Elijah!" Mom says, slapping his head. She is calling him by his full name only when she is angry against him.

"What? Look at him! This is driving me crazy to see him like that. Who will be his mate will be lucky. There is no reason to explain how she is acting. Let me tell, she is marking point if one day she wants to become my daughter-in-law." He defends himself and I can see her melt.

"I will think about it!" I tell him even if it's not true. The only one I want is my real mate and I will fight for her, against her if I have to. I want what my parents have and I will not have it with a chosen mate.

"Fine! One last thing before this meeting ends. We were contacted by the Black Wolf Pack, they want to go after the Lycans and would like for us to join them. " Dad explains.

"I hope you said no! We don't have anything against Lycans and I would rather not have them sneaking in our territory." Mom replies. I nod in agreement.

"Not yet but I will. I just wanted to let you all know before answering them." Dad tells her.

"Good!" Mom approves.

"Thanks. You can go now." Dad says.

Logan and I bow our heads in respect before to get up but before we open the door, mom adds:

"Enjoy the party tomorrow but not too much."

"Thanks, mom! But no promises." I smirk and she laughs.

The party is like all the parties organized by a frat, fun, and full of alcohol. Alcohol mix with a bit of wolfbane, like that we are feeling the effect of it. I'm feeling a bit tipsy and it's nice. We are looking for Mari as she came with us and we lost her an hour ago and Logan is worried about her. When we finally find her, she is with Asher and they are in the middle of a heated discussion.

"What going on here?" Logan asks them.

"Nothing your sister is drunk, you should bring her back home. She doesn't know what she is saying anymore." Asher says.

"Ah, look this is a real man. The perfect man." Mari says, coming to me and caressing my torso. Then she kissed me, I'm so surprised that I let her kiss me.

"I wish he was my mate. Look at you, you're just a fag who loves dancing. Do you really think dancing makes you sexy and attractive? You just a shame for our species!" Mari tells him and I can see how hurt he is.

Lana laughs in our back: "Gosh, you're so stuping. You have no idea how dancing built his body and his stamina. Believe me, at bed, he is able to do things that Him will never able. Things that you can even imagine!" She pointed to me when she said "him".

Mari slurs: "I would like to see that!"

Lana smiles defiantly and suddenly the music changes. Swalla of Jason Derulo starts. Lana catches Asher by his arm and they start to dance together. Well, I don't know if you can call that dancing as indecent, it is! I have never seen someone dancing like that. It's sensual, sexual and Asher is totally dominating her. The things they are doing with their bodies. Everybody is looking at them, in awe. How is it possible to do that? I didn't even know you could be that flexible! Before the music finishes Mari separates Lana and Asher and leaves the party. Logan runs after her. I don't know why but my wolf and I are furious. My wolf is fighting to take control.

I catch Lana's arm and tells her: "I'm so grateful that we aren't mates. You have no shame. I knew you were a lot of things but I've never expected you to be a slut."

She slaps me, hard. I look at her, her eyes are full of tears.

"Fuck you Ezra!" She says before running away.

"For your information, we both are virgins as we are waiting for our mates. She was just defending me as the friend she is!" Asher says.

"Fuck you Asher! And miss another meeting and I will find another Gamma."

He shakes his head: " I don't who you are anymore."

"That makes both of us then."
