He’s My Alpha by Cassandra M (Jake & Clair)

Chapter 45

Jake

We’re heading off to Aeon’s party anytime soon. If it weren’t for the pack business that, for unknown reasons, he chose to conduct on the same day as his party, I would not be attending his gala.

He might have wanted me there for a certain reason, but I just shrugged it off until his invitation to Clair came forward. He must have known that Clair wouldn’t go unless she came with someone from her pack.

If it were up to me, I would not let her go to this party, but my Beta informed me that she wanted to go. Her agreement to go caught me off guard. I always thought she hated this kind of gathering, but I couldn’t avoid thinking she might be considering Aeon for her chosen mate, like what she told me last time at the stream.

Now I have to change my plan for tonight. I initially thought that I would just attend the meeting with Aeon and leave as soon as we were done with it. But now I had to stay for the gala as well and watch her all night.

Aeon might be a close friend, but Clair is mine. And whether he is a friend or not, I would not let him take her as his prey. She’s mine, even if I kept denying it to myself.

I slid my coat

over my arms and took one more look at myself in front of the mirror before heading down. Clair was using the guest room to prepare herself. I thought I heard Jenny earlier, so she must be helping her.

I hadn’t seen Clair the whole day, and it was just my Beta who notified me that he let her use the guest room. It slightly pissed me off that my Beta was the one making the decisions when it came to Clair, but I tried to shake off any negative thoughts about it. I should trust my Beta.

I stood in the hallway facing the door of the pack house as I gave instructions to the warrior standing in front of me. He and another warrior would accompany us to the event.

He nodded as confirmation that he understood what I was explaining to him when his gaze suddenly turned upward and his jaw dropped. I saw his eyes dilating into black and knew he saw something mesmerizing. I already knew what it was, or who it was.

I turned my body slowly to where he was staring, towards the stairs, and saw my beautiful mate descending from it. She was indeed mesmerizing. I felt my body stiffen from the view in front of me. Her scent was just as sweet and tempting as she is.

She wore a floor-length long strapless midnight blue draped satin gown with a sweetheart neckline. She’s been nailing this formal wear look more than I could admit, and blue really did suit her. She had straightened and pulled her hair back into a sleek ponytail and fixed it in place with a glistening gold band.

She cleaned up well with just a faint make-up, not that she needed one, but it accentuated her prominent cheekbones and her beautiful sapphire eyes. Her accessories were also limited to gold round earrings embedded with a sapphire stone paired with a bracelet of the same style. Her neck was bare showing off her unmarked neck.

I didn’t care if Selene would agree or not, but to me, she looked like a goddess.

To control myself from taking her abruptly into my arms, I clenched my fist tightly as she approached. Her scent was clouding my senses, and my wolf wanted to stake his claim on her.

I wanted nothing more than to take her away somewhere just for myself.

“Alpha.” She nodded her head to acknowledge my presence.

I felt my voice constricted in my throat. I just looked at her, and I saw her cheeks start to blush into a scarlet red.

When I failed to respond, she squinted her eye before flashing a sly grin. “Shall we go now?”

I cleared my throat and nodded, offering my arm for her to hold. And as she did, I felt sparks dancing between our skin, and the slight jerk of her body confirmed that she felt it too.

I glared at the warrior beside me as he openly ogled Clair, and he backed off immediately, bobbing his head in a rush before dashing off out of the pack house.

Clair and I walked in silence and headed for my black car. I was reveling in her warmth and her scent, loving the way she was clinging to me like she was meant to be holding me this way.

As soon as we reached my car, I opened the door and held her hand as I leaned closer to her. “You really look lovely tonight. I only wish you were dressing up for me and not for Aeon.”

A smug smile crept onto her lips as she tilted her head to look at me, our faces inches away from each other. “Is that jealousy I detect?”

I swallowed the lump in my throat. She rendered me speechless again.

“Jealousy? Maybe not. Possessiveness, right?” She mocked me, the smug smile still on her lips. “But to keep your d*ic*k twitching in your pants, let me tell you…” she said in a whisper. She raised her finger to trace my lips. “I wear this color because it’s almost the same color as your eyes. I always wanted to wear a part of you.”

She said it s*exily as she dragged my lower lip with her finger at an agonizingly slow pace, her eyes following the movement of her finger as she bit her lower lip on purpose before turning around to sit inside my car.

I took a hitched breath and closed her door while she buckled her seat belt.

She got me there.

I adjusted my pants discreetly before striding towards the driver’s seat. This is going to be a long drive.

Clair

I stepped inside the passenger seat of Jake’s car and fastened my seat belt after I just seductively teased him. I knew his body responded to my teasing.

With a satisfied smile, my eyes followed him as he tried to adjust his pants discreetly before walking towards the driver’s seat. I watched him walk gracefully. The suit fitted him well but it did nothing to hide his broad shoulders or his muscled arms. Damn, this man! Tell me again why he’s so perfect?

I felt myself still on a high as he slipped inside the driver’s seat and roared the engine to life.

But the magic dissolved instantly when the back door of the car opened and Beta Gavin slipped in flawlessly. He was also in a formal suit. I almost forgot he was coming with us.

A low growl hummed from Jake’s chest, which made me bite my lower lip, waiting for his next move. I knew Beta Gavin didn’t tell him he was coming, but I didn’t expect him to ride with us. “What the f*uc*k are you doing here?” An annoyed look was written on Jake’s face. His brows were furrowing as he glanced at his Beta through the rearview mirror.

“I’m going with you.” The Beta replied.

Jake turned his head to face him. “And who’s in charge here? I didn’t ask you to come.”

“I informed Aaron beforehand. He will take charge. Clair asked me to come with her.” He answered calmly, securing the seatbelt around him.

I swallowed hard because I certainly didn’t ask him to come. It was the other way around, and the anger rolling off Jake’s aura right now was something I didn’t want to mess with. But it seemed like his Beta wasn’t rattled at all. In fact, he looked like he was enjoying this.

“Is there something going on here?” Jake’s eyes shifted to me.

I raised an eyebrow and tried my best not to mind his anger. “Would it bother you if there was anything?” I threw it back at him which I regretted in an instant because it didn’t sound right. Me and my loud mouth.

“Out!” He roared, and I jumped in my seat, ready to leave the car.

“Not you!” His eyes were glazing over red and black now, and he was deeply staring at me, his hand clutching my wrist.

“But… but he needs to come… I’m not going, if he. ” I stuttered. I was so scared of the anger in his aura that I meant it when I said I wouldn’t come with him unless the Beta would.

“He’s riding with the other warriors. Moved now, Beta!” He snapped the last command.

Beta Gavin opened the door and stepped out of the car, stopping only to talk with me. “I’ll see you there, Clair.”

I nodded my head before he closed the car door and moved swiftly to the car behind us.

Jake started the engine again and we drove in very uncomfortable silence for a while. I could still sense his anger rolling off of him and I found myself cowering and leaning my body closer to the door beside me.

“So you’re f*uc*king my Beta, huh? Was he good?” He asked sarcastically, hatred plastered on his face. He was driving at a crazy speed, matching his

mood, and making me hold onto the edge of my seat.

“You really think I’ll just f*uc*k anyone with a d*ic*k?! Can you slow down? You’re scaring me!” I snapped back at him, my hands still clutching tightly to my seat. My eyes glared at him. Just the thought of him thinking so low of me made me boil in my own anger.

As soon as my words came out, I felt his shoulders relax as he took consecutive deep breaths. The car speed slowly went down a bit and his strong aura faded slightly. It took a moment before he spoke again.

“Do you like him?” He asked softly this time.

“Yes. He’s easy to like. He has better humor than you.” If I wasn’t boiling with anger right now, I would have answered differently.

He let out a sarcastic snort. “Wow! My mate likes my Beta. I didn’t see that coming. Remind me to kill him soon!” He said with gritted teeth.

“I like him because he looks after me. Not because I wanted him the same way I wanted my mate. I could never want anyone, even if I tried to…” I closed my eyes and moved to lean my body back on the soft leather seat.

I felt him stiffen beside me, but he didn’t say anything more.

There was silence, and all I could hear was the beating of my own heart.

I was tired of provoking him. I was here because Gavin was right, we needed time away, just the two of us. I hope Jake will just stop hurting me.

I opened my eyes and gazed at his side, and I knew that no matter how many times I looked at him, I would never get tired of it.

He was good-looking in every sense — everything about him screamed dominance and power. And as much as I hated to admit it, I kept falling deeper and deeper in love with this man. He threw a side glance and caught me staring at him. Instead of a scowl, his lips curved into a smug smirk.

“Like what you’re seeing, little mate?” He was flashing me those deep dimples again.

“Eyes on the road, Alpha,” I told him, my gaze still fixed on him, and I didn’t stop my lips from curling into a smile this time.

“I can’t concentrate when your eyes are undressing me.” He turned his attention back to the road, but his lips still had the same smug smirk.

“And you seemed to enjoy it. You’re actually cute when you smile.” I told him.

“Cute? Do I look like a puppy? I’m a f*uc*king wolf, a big one. Cute doesn’t apply to me, princess. Or is it queen now?” He looked at me and caught my eyes before throwing a wink at me.

I felt like sinking into my seat at his words. Gavin must have told him about that incident with the waitress at the diner.

“F*uc*king Gavin!” I cursed the Beta under my breath.

He chuckled at my expression and made no attempt to conceal his smirk. I shifted my gaze back onto the road, trying to hide the scarlet flush slowly creeping into my cheeks.

Arrogant beast! He was clearly enjoying this.
