Micah POV.
My father is dead, my mother is dead, my supposed beta betrayed me, and is now dead too, I killed him, my mother killed my father when he went to hurt me, and then she suicided, she could never love me. After meeting my mate, I understood her, I could never love anyone but him, I would never allow anyone else to touch me. I can’t even imagine having a kid with anyone but my mate, I understood where she’s coming from, but now she’s dead too.
Jordan dragged me inside the house, everyone else congratulated me, they were all saying a good job and good riddance, my father failed to make me into a monster like he was, I’m different. Walking inside the house, it’s cold, it’s always cold, but my father is gone, no more coldness, I looked at Jordan, tears still going freely on my face, I can’t take any more of this cold.
“Turn the damn heat on! This place is freezing, make the whole place get warm,” I tell Jordan and no one in particular, anyone, who would obey their new alpha.
“Yes, alpha,” one of my enforcers answer me, they are mine now, they obey me now.
“Let’s go, Jordy,” I beg my mate to take me away, I need some time alone with him, I need to be able to think this through.
“He needs to rest, warm the house, clean it up, we’ll be having a party tonight,” Jordan says taking charge for me, I only nod my head yes agreeing with everything my mate is saying, he’s right.
He took us toward his room, the small room he’s been sleeping in, but it’s not as cold as it’s usually is, it’s much warmer, he took my clothes off, and mine, dragging us toward the bathroom, I should be shy at being naked for the first time in front of him, but I didn’t look down, our eyes only met each other. Jordan cleaned me, he scrubbed the blood and dirt off me, the water was hot, helping my soul feel better, feel whole again.
“Jordan, I’m tired,” I say, my soul felt heavy, I could feel everyone in the pack, I’m their alpha now, they are all connected to me, although my wolf couldn’t dominate them all, he could lead them, he could be there for them, and he would. He got us out of the shower, drying both of us with a towel, dressing me in one of his hoodies, and wearing one of his ones along with sweats for both of us.
“Let’s let some rest, the pack need to see their alpha strong,” he says, they do, but I’m not strong right now, can I be weak for him? Would he catch me if I fall?
“What about you?” I ask him, he knew what I mean.
“Sleep now, we’ll talk about some rules when you’ve rested,” Jordan tries to tell me, but I can’t rest until I’m sure about him.
“I can’t sleep, I need to know,” I say making puppy eyes to him, I can’t.
“Fine, Micah, sit down,” he order me, pulling me to sit facing him on the bed, I looked at him, waiting for him to start talking.
“In a relation like ours, we need to have rules,” he says, I just nod yes, we do need rules.
“What are those rules?” I ask him, I trust him.
“Rules being you trust me, never hide anything from me, if you need a rest I’m here for you, I’ll be your shoulder to lean on and cry on. You’re alpha for everyone else, but you’re my little prince, you can be strong, you can be weak, you can be everything, you’re my spoiled baby,” he says kissing the top of my head, my heart melted there, he’s my everything now.
“Do I get to give you rules too?” I ask him, I need him, I need his help, I would never be able to do this on my own.
“Yes, what do you got in mind?” he answers me with a smile.
“I want you to be my beta,” I say, I only trust him, I don’t trust anyone else as much as I trust him.
“I’ll be honoured to be your beta baby,” he answer me smiling, that’s one less thing to worry about.
“I want you to always be there with me, I don’t know how to do this, I know you came from a proper pack, I need to build mine now,” I say honestly, we’re a broken pack in need of guidance.
“It’s not just yours, I’m your beta, it’s ours, you’re my mate too,” he assures me hugging me close, now I’m ready to sleep, I yawned, I’m exhausted, and I’m starving.
“Let’s rest please,” I beg him, laying my head over his chest listening to his heartbeat beating strongly under my ear, my mate, my daddy.
I fell asleep soon, I don’t think I’ve woke up when Jordan slipped out of the bed, nor when he left me in the room alone, I was in deep sleep the whole time, until he came and shook me awake, telling me it’s time to get up. I woke up grumpy, tired, and in need of extra cuddles and love, I raised both hands for Jordan, and he hugged me tight, assuring me he was here for me.
“I kind of took my beta job too seriously,” Jordan says hugging me, patting his back, his hands doing circular motions around my back making me pur.
“What happened?” I ask him.
“We have a party set for the new alpha, the pack wants to celebrate you, hope you don’t mind,” he says.
“Party? We never had a party before!” I say excited now, party!
“So you’re happy about it?” he asks me, I just nod my head yes, I’m so happy about this.
“I might have taken the privilege of getting us new clothes too, we can’t keep on wearing my hoodies,” he says with a wink, he showed me a few shopping bags in his arms.
“I’m so happy for having you here,” I say hugging him, getting ready for the party.
“Let me help you, my baby alpha,” Jordan says helping me sit up, he took off the hoodie and pulled out a jumper and jeans for me, along with a leather jacket, he got similar clothes for him too. He brushed my hair, the one that’s getting longer, we were ready to leave for our party, it’s going to be our mating and becoming alpha and beta party, I leaned forward, our lips meeting in the middle.
“A kiss for luck,” I say with a smile feeling more confident than ever.
