Savage Mates

Chapter 31

Chapter Thirty-One: Claim her. Punish her:

The sweet mouth watering scent was coming from him, but along with that was another scent that i

knew so well.

Ryan, my best friend. He was my pack. They both were. I should have been elated for them but all I

could feel was sadness. There was no way that I could tell them how I was feeling. What was going on,

even if the answer to my problems was his.

“Did you hear me, Jason? Travis said, stepping closer to me. Worry was clear in his bright green eyes.

Dimming some of the happiness that he was feeling.

Fuck, I should have been listening to him. Congratulating him for finding his mate. It was just hard to Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

think about anything other than the way that he smelled. How her scent clung to him, making

everything inside of me tingle with the need to go after her. “I’m sorry. What did you say?”

“She’s fucking perfect. I can’t wait for you to meet her.” Travis answered, before shaking his head.

“You wanted to talk to me about something?”

“Yeah, maybe we could go somewhere private?” I asked, looking around the club. It was crowded and

there were too many ears here that I didn’t want to hear what I was going to have to say to him.

A feral alpha was a dangerous thing and could cause problems between us and the packs that

surrounded us. That was something that I wanted to avoid at all costs. If word got out, others would see

it as a weakness and strike. Things were going smoothly for us and war was the last thing that I

wanted.

“Sure, let me get some water from the bar. Did you want anything?’ Travis asked and I shook my head.

Did I need anything? Yes. But I couldn’t tell him what I needed, couldn’t take the risk that my wolf was

howling at me to take. The beast didn’t care that she was mated to my beta and best friend. He knew

his mate was here and that’s all he wanted. I could feel him lurking beneath the surface, watching and

waiting to see just what she was like.

“You know what? It can wait.” I said. My voice was rough and I worried that he would be able to tell

something was wrong.

“Alpha…” He said, looking over at me. His lips pressed together as he took me in. Mentally, I cursed. I

didn’t want to do this. “Jason, what’s up?”

“It can wait, you should be… You should be celebrating with your mate.”

“There will be plenty of time for that later. You are my alpha. My friend.” He said and it hit me like a

punch in the gut that he was worried about me like this.

Shaking my head, I let out a breath. Trying to clear my head of the scent of their coupling. “Fine, I’ll tell

you. Just not here.”

Travis nodded before turning away from me. The two of us made our way to the bar and I watched him

slip past the counter. Checking on Clover before reaching into the fridge behind the bar and grabbing

three water bottles. I watched him tuck them into his arms before looking at the hazy mirror behind the

bar.

I looked on edge. My blond hair was disheveled, falling across my forehead in messy waves. It wasn’t

how 1 normally liked to keep my hair, but when I had been leaving Kelly’s straightening myself up had

been the furthest thing on my mind. My gray eyes were dark with my beast. I could see him looking

back at me. Flickering on the edge of taking over to take what he wanted. What he knew would keep us

in control.

Mate.

I closed my eyes, dragging my hand over my face to try to scrub away the thoughts. He wanted to hunt

her, to find her and claim her.

Punish her. r

My skin rippled and I let out a groan as my dick twitched at the thought. I wanted to punish her because

I hadn’t found her sooner. Punish her for mating with Travis, for possibly mating with Ryan.

I wasn’t having the most healthy thoughts and I knew it. I needed to get myself under control. Well,

what little control i had left.

“Jason, come with me.” Travis said, stepping out from behind the bar. “Let’s head to my office. We can

talk there.”

Nodding, i followed after him. Tucking my hands into my jacket pockets as I went. I shook my head,

trying to push those thoughts away. I didn’t need to be thinking about all of the things my wolf was

screaming at me.

Take her. Claim her. Mine. Ours.

The beast didn’t care that she was with the two of them. I didn’t know if she was mated to both of them

or if they had just shared her. Ryan was into some kinky shit, but I didn’t figure Travis would be the type

to share his lover.

The times that he had shared with me about him taking other people to bed, it had seemed like he was

a one on one type of guy. He didn’t care about the gender of the person. As long as they were a good

fuck and willing to submit to him.

That was part of the alpha thing and I could understand it. He was strong enough to lead our pack on

his own, it was why I had asked him to be my second.

We made our way up the stairs to his office and I looked out over the crowded dance floor. So many of

our pack was here tonight. People that I was responsible for, I knew that I couldn’t let them down. I

couldn’t put them in danger. I was going to have to tell Travis the truth.

Excitement thrummed through me and I tried to stomp it down. I shouldn’t be feeling this way. She

wasn’t mine.

Travis stopped in front of the door to his office, twisting the doorknob before he stepped inside and I

saw her. My teeth lengthened and my beast surged forward, taking control from me in his need to get

to her. I pushed past Travis, making my way into his office. Her cherry scent filled my senses, making it

hard to think of anything other than her.
