The Dark Thrall Mating Olivia

Chapter Fourteen

Micheal

"I'll let you know after I've thought it over." I said, to the man on my computer screen.

"Think it over, Alpha Micheal. It would be a good match. My daughter would make a fine mate for you." Alpha Timothy said before ending the video call.

I exited out of the call menu. Closing the lid of my laptop, I leaned back in my chair. Listening to

it squeak beneath me as I thought about the meeting that I'd just had with Alpha Timothy. He had a daughter who was of mating age that he wanted me to meet. She didn't have a beast, though.

I could handle that; my mother had a dragon, but her beast had never woken up. It didn't change my relationship with Mom, and I knew that I could handle having an almost human mate. Mon's beast not waking didn't mean that she wasn't accepted. That didn't make her any less cherished by the pack. They had learned to love her after seeing how much she cared about my dads and the pack. Making them her family too, even now, she liked to be at the main house when a baby was born to welcome them.

Goddess, she was still very much loved by our pack still. I just knew that anyone I mated with was going to have some big shoes to fill with winning my pack over. Then again, Mom would show

them the ropes.

If I mated with Timothy's daughter, it would also get her and my dads off my back. They were ready for me to settle down, and mating with her would align my pack with another one that was almost as strong as my own. That was a very good thing and would benefit us both, but she probably wasn't my fated mate. Then again, a chosen mate could lead to love.

I'd seen it firsthand with Olivia, Killian, and Jay. The way that the dragons had chosen her to be their mate. How quickly they had fallen for her and she for them.

At first, I was worried that they would hurt her. She had been through so much with getting pregnant and her mate rejecting her. But both men had loved her and accepted her daughter as their own, easing my worry for my friend. Eventually Nick had come back into the picture, and the four of them had figured things out together. Making a family of their own that was full of love.

It had been a beautiful thing to watch, and it was something that I longed for. I had grown up in

a similar situation, but my mom hadn't known about shifters, vampires, or demons until she found herself mated to four men who were anything but human.

Mom had been fated to two of them and I wanted that. My father, Sam, had fallen for my mom. They had been friends at first, but he had always known that she was the only woman that he would ever love. The times that I visited, I still caught him gazing at her with wild adoration in his hazel eyes. The way that they would flicker to red when she would catch him looking at her. That was what I wanted. I didn't want just a fated mate; I wanted someone that I could love with every part of my being. Someone who would accept me as a man, a wolf, and as a demon. My phone let out a chime and I picked it up off the desk. Looking at the screen as a text message flashed across it. I smiled as I got a text from my best friend.

Livie: Stop sulking in your office, it's the weekend and you're unmated. Go find someone to have fun with.

Micheal: I'm not sulking, I had a meeting.

Livie: Had. That means you're still in your office... Sulking. Go have fun, or do I need to send Nick to drag you out of there?

Micheal: Are you trying to boss your alpha around?

Livie: No, I'm bossing my best friend around, who works too much. Go have fun, so you can be a good alpha.

Micheal: Fine, Livie, I'll go out.

Livie: Don't scowl. You'll scare the pretty girls away. Say hey to Everly if you see her. She's back in town.

Micheal: I will if I see her.

Shaking my head, I stood up and turned off the lamp that sat on my desk before heading out of my office on the first floor. It would be good to see Everly, I hadn't seen her since before she had left for college.

Closing the door to my office, I headed towards the garage. The pack house was fairly empty tonight, but I could hear the sounds of a few people who had chosen to stay in. Almost everyone was out tonight, looking for their mate or just having fun.

It felt like forever since I had done that. Forever since I had taken a break to just relax. Livie was right, I needed to get out there more. I wasn't going to find my mate being cooped up at the packhouse.

Unclipping my keys from my belt loop, I pressed the button on the key fob. The lights flashed on my silver Dodge truck. It was a bit older and beat up, but I loved it and refused to replace it. Opening the door, I slipped inside and started the engine before pulling out of the garage. I guided my truck down the long gravel driveway, looking at the roses that were in full bloom along the way. It didn't matter what time of year it was, those red roses would always be in full bloom. Their scent perfuming the air. It was beautiful and another example of the love my fathers had for my mom.

The moon hung heavy in the sky, and it felt like the goddess was watching me. I'd never felt more connected to her than at that moment. I couldn't explain it, but it felt like something big was coming.

It was just something I felt. I didn't know if I was just overthinking it. But it was better safe than sorry, so I shot a quick prayer up to her before driving into the city. I didn't know what she had planned for me, but I was ready for anything.
