Rubbing another hand over my face I turned in my chair slightly, running a hand down her side as I took her in. She looked amazing in my shirt, it practically dwarfing her small but curvaceous figure."Come here," I spoke softly, gesturing for her to sit on my lap. She did so willingly. "I have a lot on my mind," I confessed. Too much to allow me to sleep."You want to talk about it? I don't mind. I may be able to help."At that I couldn't help but pause, letting the thought roll over in my mind for a few moments as I considered it. While I didn't want to put my mate under the stress of my alpha duties, I was not only extremely curious about what her opinion would be on the matter but I also didn't want to discourage her from offering her help in the future. My mate was still nervous enough not to have fully come into her alpha female position, especially when it came to giving orders to others, and I didn't want to hinder any progress she had made. She was my equal after all.With that on the forefront of my mind I instinctively felt my grip on her tighten as I held her close, letting her ground me as I pulled out of my thoughts. Perhaps it would be a good idea to ask her what her opinions were, my inner wolf purring in encouragement as he enjoyed the thought of my mate seeing us as even more of an equal in the relationship. I certainly didn't see her as my lesser, not at all.Grabbing the crisp sheet of paper I gave it to her, monitoring her emotions carefully as her eyes scanned the page before she looked at me frowning. I was immediately on high alert."What's wrong?" I asked gently, worriedly.Holly shook her head, her fingers running down my bare chest before she shook her head after getting momentarily distracted by the sight of my inner muscles twitching and rolling under my skin. Her glazed look made me leer at her hungrily, debating on whether attempting to seduce her would be a good idea on my part. Sex was meant to be good for pregnant women, right? If my mate was going to be horny then it was my duty as her other half to help her out, I wasn't going to let her suffer and squirm.It wasn't like it was going to be a duty I wasn't going to enjoy, rather I was going to be enjoying it a hell of a lot."What?" I grinned cheekily, running the pad of my thumb against her bottom lip."I don't understand," she spoke softly as she stared at the sheet of paper. "This pack, they are in trouble, yes?"Sensing the seriousness of the situation I nodded, wiping away my previously playful expression as I pulled her tightly against me. "The alpha by the sounds of it is incredibly lazy, caring for himself above the rest of the pack and now they are all paying for it.""So…they want you to help them?"I sighed, nodding."Are you going to?"I shrugged. If I was being honest with myself I just didn't know. While I didn't want them to suffer, my mate was more important and always would be. She came, and would continue to come, first. Curious about her opinion I asked her outright what she thought I should do. While it wasn't often I asked for another's opinion on something that could affect the pack so greatly, I couldn't help my curiosity.She shrugged gently. "I don't know, but if they need your help surely it wouldn't take long if you gave them a few pointers.""It would be more than a few pointers, sweetheart" I told her gently. "I would have to take a few pack—mates with me and 'whip them into shape' as I have heard the phrase. We would probably have to stay for a week or two as well."I watched as she visibly brightened. "We?"I grinned. "Of course. You didn't expect me to leave you behind, did you? Because you are not leaving my sight!"She giggled, leaning down to kiss me sweetly on the lips. "I wouldn't have it any other way."Good," I nodded. "So if I agreed to this," I gestured to the sheets of paper scattered on my desk. "You would not object to coming with me?"She shook her head. "Of course not."I took a deep breath, burying my face in her neck. "If there is any moment it gets too much for you, you will tell me, right?"She nodded."No, tell me out loud, baby! Promise me!" I had to hear her say it. She smiled. "I promise."Well, I guessed that was my decision made then.
Chapter 101
Adrian's Pov
So it was decided, we were going. Since I had made the decision, with Holly's support, that I was in fact going to help out with the troubled pack I had given the order to the pack members I was talking with me. I had put Paul in charge for the predicted two weeks we were going to be away due to him being the Beta of my pack, I trusted that he would be able to keep things under control. Though, he was under firm orders that any decision he made was going to go through me first or else. He wasn't completely ready for this sort of control, and while I knew he was still learning and gaining experience from it all, he needed to follow that order to the absolute T. I had no doubts that he would. I trusted him completely.Ryan and his mate Kelly, however, were coming along with me as well as Jake. He may be a lower member of the pack but he was quickly making his way to the top. He was a brilliant fighter and respected me to a whole other level. He would be perfect. While he was slightly annoyed at having to leave Annie I knew the distance would do him good in a small dose. He had yet to tell her about not only being a werewolf but being her mate as well, but I wasn't rushing him. It wasn't down to me when he wanted to come clean, I wasn't the kind of alpha who demanded they spill the beans instantly since that would be cruel on both parties, but I knew the distance would be the slight push in the right direction they needed to make that final step. I also knew that even though Annie was a human she would also feel the lack of his presence even if it wouldn't be as strong as Jake would sense, they had been spending a lot of time after all. I hoped it would make her less stunned when the news came about, and so in result work in Jakes favour. Neither of us wanted her flipping out. I had also chosen to bring Laura and her mate, Jack, along with Simon and Mark who were also a mated couple. It was incredibly rare for two males to be mated, especially since they couldn't produce pups, but getting to know them personally it was clear they didn't need it. They were perfect together, they didn't need a child and that was fine by them. I knew some packs would have acted incredibly differently, perhaps refusing to allow or accept it, or to go as far as to banish them outright. I would never forget the utter wreak both of them looked when they came to tell me the news.I couldn't have been happy for them. I may be known as a strict and evil bastard around other packs, but I looked and cared for my own. That was how it should be with every pack, it being one of the reasons why hearing about my own mate's bad treatment had infuriated the Alpha inside of me as much as it had. It was an Alpha's duty to protect and care for their pack, the fact hers hadn't, and had gone as far as to abuse her was just outright infuriating. If I ever met the bastard…I had also chosen not to take any more members other than a few guards who had been trained to perfection. They would scout out the
