Andrew kissed the top of her head and smiled.
“Thank you, Em,” he mumbled, rubbing her back gently.
Watching him with her made my heart swell. I was so proud of him. He was amazing. He was loving and caring, and I couldn’t have wished for a better mate.
Emma let go of Andrew. He smiled at her before looking up at me.
I approached him, and he pulled me into his arms.
“You are going to have a pup just in time for a new kindergarten,” Emma said, making us laugh.
Andrew kissed my temple, and I leaned more into him.
A huge smile spread across my face. I was so lucky. I couldn’t have asked for a better mate and a better family. I was so happy, and I knew that it would always stay like that as long as I had them.
Drake & Amy
CHAPTER ONE – A Weird Feeling
Drake’s POV
“You really need to stop staring at her,” my Beta told me. “She is a mated she-wolf. She is a married woman.”
I gulped down the shot of whiskey and glanced at him.
“I am not staring at her,” I mumbled. “I’m over her.”
Josh sighed and rolled his eyes.
I was telling the truth. I was over Emma. I would always be fascinated with her beauty and her power, but I was over her. She wasn’t mine. She was Logan’s, and the more I watched the two of them together, the more I knew that the Goddess had made the right choice. They were perfect together. They were really made for each other. I was glad that Logan grew the fuck up and realized what kind of a woman he had next to him. I was glad that he realized his mistake before he lost her. I was glad that Emma forgave him.
“Tell that to your eyes,” Josh mumbled. “They are staring at her.”
I was staring at her, but not because I wanted her. I was staring at her because I wanted someone like her. I wanted a mate. I wanted someone who would love me just as Emma loved Logan.
I watched as she looked at Logan and smiled. I watched as Logan wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed the top of her head. Both of them looked at Alpha Greg and continued to talk to him.
We were having a small gathering for us Alphas, who were allied with Logan. It was a yearly tradition. Some Alphas even brought their daughters, hoping that one of us unmated Alphas would be their mate. Not to lie, I wanted that too. I hoped that one of those girls would be mine.
But it was the same every year. None of those girls were my mates.
‘She died, Drake,’my wolf sighed.‘I want her too, but I don’t think that she exists anymore.’
My heart clenched, and a sharp pain spread through my chest. Even though I had never met her, it was still painful to think that she had died.
‘I know, Dean,’I sighed.
“Alpha Drake?” a soft voice called my name.
I looked away from Emma and turned around. A huge smile spread across my face.
Emma’s friend Amy was standing behind me with a small smile on her face.
I really liked her. She and I spent a lot of time together over the last few days. I had some issues with my fields and food production at my pack. My agronomists were having trouble figuring out what was happening. Emma suggested that Amy take a look at it. Apparently, Amy was really good with plants, and she knew her way around the soil. I took her back to my pack a few days ago, and she immediately knew what was wrong. She helped my agronomists, and things were looking up. I was very grateful to her. I was really impressed. Emma was right. Amy definitely knew her way around planting and soil.
“Hi, Amy,” I said as my smile grew. “Please, don’t call me Alpha. It’s just Drake.”
She smiled, and my heart did a weird little flip. She was beautiful. Her brown eyes looked like a pool of liquid gold. Her strawberry-blonde hair looked so soft. I wanted to run my fingers through it. Her mouth moved, but I didn’t hear a word she said.
