Her Forbidden Alpha
Chapter63　Her Mate

Scarlett entered the hall; her heart was thundering so loudly she wondered if everyone couldhear it. Angela suddenly froze, gripping Scarlett's hand tightly.

“My mate..." She said. Scarlett's eyes widened looking at Angela who was scanning the crowds.A tall slender woman with blond hair in an elegant updo and deep blue eyes stepped towards them,dressed in a deep pink coloured gown, her eyes widening as she looked at Angela.

“Mate.” She said softly, her eyes flashing when she saw the girls intertwined hands. “Mine.” Shegrowled, making Scarlett pull free and raise her hand in surrender. She was shocked to say the least,Angela had a female mate. She never knew Angela was bi.

She looked at her friend who looked shocked too, staring at the woman who now stopped infront of her.

“Hi, I'm Cassandra.” She said, holding her hand out. Angela just stood there stunned, thewoman before her was beautiful but she was not expecting a woman...

“Uhh... Angela.” Angela said confused, sure she had a few crushes on women over the years butnever thought much of it. She appreciated a hot woman when she saw one and the one before herwas indeed ravishing. She let her eyes dip lower taking in the woman's curves, feeling her stomachknot and quickly looked back into her eyes. The woman smiled seeing this and Angela quickly tookher hand, gasping when she felt the sparks.

“Beautiful name for a beautiful woman.” Cassandra said, leaning forward she kissed Angela'scheek as Scarlett simply stood there too shocked to speak. Angela now looked at Scarlett, confusedwith the emotions that went through her and the feelings that swirled in her chest.

“I'm Scarlett, Angela's best friend.” Scarlett said trying to help her friend out. Cassandra seemedto relax a little at this, still holding Angela's hand

“Nice to meet you, mind if I steal my mate?” She said. Scarlett shook her head, not missing theconflict in Angela's eyes. She felt a little concerned for her friend, someone who had never evermentioned her interest in women before was now blessed with a female mate. She watched the twowomen walk off and hoped Angela found happiness with her mate.

“Now that, I wasn't expecting.” Liam's voice came from behind her, Scarlett turned not missingthe disappointment in his eyes. He looked her over, she wasn’t his mate. The moment he had seenher across the room, it had hurt but he wasn't sure how to feel about it. Relieved that she would notneed to reject him? Or sad that he had no chance? Smiling softly he looked into her soft green eyes."You look beautiful by the way.”

“Thanks, you look good too.” Scarlett said, her nerves playing up realising Elijah must benearby. Liam looked at her understanding what she was thinking about.

“He headed outside.” He said motioning with his head at the open doors on the far side of thehall.

“Thanks...” Scarlett said, giving him a small smile trying to calm her nerves as she made her waythrough the crowds of people. So many scents filled her nose but nothing stood out. With each stepshe took her heart thundered louder, pausing when she saw the open doors, her chest rising andfalling as she slowly made her way closer.

There he stood in his perfectly fitted black suit, his back to her, his hands braced on the rail. Butit was the surge of emotions that coursed through her when she looked at him that made her stopin her tracks. A dangerously intoxicating scent enveloping her, it was completely new, never had shesmelt something so good. She took a deep breath noticing Elijah’s normal scent was mixed underthe overwhelmingly tempting scent that now came from him, making one thing crystal clear.

He was her mate.

She placed a hand to her chest as if trying to calm the emotions that swirled in her chest.Happiness, disbelief and relief, the moon goddess hadn't let her down. She had granted her thegreatest blessing she could ever hope for. She was brought out of her thoughts when he spoke.

“I Elijah Westwood, future Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack reject you as my mate and Lu-"

“Don't say it.” She said breathlessly, her heart racing as she looked at him. Elijah froze, thatvoice... His heart raced as he slowly turned to look at the woman who had spoken.

There she stood looking like a Goddess, her glittering dress accentuating every curve of herdivine body. Her vibrant locks were pulled back and her large green eyes glistened as they looked athim with shock clear in them.

“Red...” He said, his voice hoarse; He could feel the bond sizzling between them, the pull to takeher in his arms and kiss her driving him nuts. No matter how much he wanted to hold her, he wastoo stunned to move. She was his and he was hers. Even the goddess had fated them to be.

Scarlett stepped forward closing the gap between them, her eyes locked with his blue ones,feeling her wolf going crazy in her mind. She was a mere two feet away when Elijah seemed to comeback to reality and closed the gap between them. He pulled her into his arms tightly, burying hisnose in the crook of her neck. She gasped feeling the strong sparks jolt through her, sendingpleasure to her core. If she had thought he had an effect on her before, what she was experiencingnow was more than anything she could have ever imagined.

“You're mine, you're fucking mine.” Elijah said, his strong arms tightening around her. He kissedher neck, the urge to mark her taking over and he pulled away looking into her eyes for a splitsecond before his lips crashed against hers. Scarlett's eyes fluttered shut as the wave of emotionsand sensations hit her strongly. He kissed her with everything he had, she could barely keep up withhim as he devoured her with that kiss. He had kissed her many times but there was somethingabout this one that would forever burn in her mind. He kissed her with passion yet at the same timeas if she was a glass doll that may break if he was too rough. She could feel the strong pool of hisemotions through the bond, enveloping her like a blanket.

He broke away when she needed air, both breathing heavily as he pressed his forehead to hers,she could feel him shaking just as much as she was.

“I'm yours.” Scarlett said softly opening her eyes, very aware of every inch of his body that wastouching hers. His hand on her waist held her tightly, the other on her upper bare back, her skintingling under his fingertips.

“Now and forever.” He said looking into her eyes. A huge burden that had been weighing downon him had been lifted and he felt light and free. “You look so fucking beautiful, I don't think anywords could ever be enough to describe how perfect you are.”

“Your eyes say enough, you look incredibly sexy yourself.” She said leaning closer and kissinghis lips softly, her core throbbing as the sizzling pleasure rushed through them both. His hand randown her back making her breath hitch, pressing her thighs together. He growled the dangerousscent of her arousal hitting his nose.

“Fuck, don't make me take you right here.” He said, squeezing her ass as he pressed her againstthe hard-on that he was now supporting. She smirked.

“As much as that sounds tempting, Id rather we don't have an audience.” She said amused, herhand running down his chest and abs.

“Kitten...” He said throbbing, wanting her touch despite the fact they were in a semi-privatearea.

“I'm sure no one will realise...” She said biting her lips, looking up at him seductively as shemade swift work of his belt. Slipping her hand into his pants she stepped forward, backing himagainst the railing. Taking a moment to scan the gardens, there was a few couples, some walking,some making out and one on the bench who seemed to be doing a lot more. She smiled teasinglyup at him.

“Scarlett...” He said biting back a groan as her hand pushed his boxers aside.

“Elijah...” She said in an equally breathless voice, her free hand wrapping around his manhood.

“You're a vixen Red...” He said squeezing her ass, he could feel her perfect cheeks under the silkgown and couldn't wait to strip it off her body. Burying his head in her neck once again as she ranher hand up and down his shaft, despite not having much space to manoeuvre she managed wellenough. Making pleasure rush through him.

“I think I have you totally at my mercy handsome.” She teased, her own pussy throbbing, shecould feel the dampness pooling between her legs. Elijah’s hand on her ass tightening, she sped up,kissing his neck sensually. Her canines elongating, itching to mark him right there. Her heartthumped as she fought the urge, feeling him tense as he tried his best not to thrust against her.Knowing if anyone looked out, they would get caught if observed long enough.

“Fuck that's it, sweetheart.” He groaned feeling himself nearing, pleasure consumed him tippinghim towards the edge. Scarlett felt him nearing as he bucked against her hand.

“That's it baby let go.” She whispered, his breathless groans driving her crazy and the urge tomark him took over. Her hand twisted into his hair tugging his neck to the side as she bit into it, hiseyes flew open as her sudden move made his orgasm rip through him, making his vision blacken fora moment. Pleasure from her bite sending jolts of electricity through him and he felt their bondstrengthen.

“Fuck...” He whispered, groaning as she milked him for every drop worth.

The sweet taste of his blood and the sound that left him made a moan escape her. She lickedthe mark, not knowing how quickly it would heal with her abilities. Slipping her hand that was nowcoated in white cum out of his pants, she stepped back glancing around. Blushing when she saw afew couples watching them curiously, she turned away not caring as she raised her hand to hermouth and wrapped her lips around a finger and licked it clean.

“You taste delicious..” She said softly, looking into his lust coated eyes as he zipped his pants upand buckled his belt.

“That was... hot.” He said unable to replace the words, he didn’t know what it was but seeing hertaking control at times, to do whatever she wants was fucking amazing and an incredible turn on.She smiled slightly as he took out his pocket square passing it to her, she blushed lightly wiping herhand clean on it.

“I'm glad you liked it.” She said, her heart thudding realising she had marked him. “I'm sorry Imarked you without-"

He cut her off, not letting her finish her sentence, kissing her passionately. He moved back aftera moment and looked into her eyes. “Don't ever apologise for claiming a right that belonged toyou.”

A soft smile crossed her lips and she locked her arms around his neck, her heart filled with somuch warmth, who said life couldn't be perfect?

Their eyes met, lost in a world that only contained the two of them. Scarlett took a deep breath,wanting to say the three words she had been tempted to say for a while now and this time shewouldn't hold back.

“I love you Elijah, so, so much.”"000000000000000
