Chapter 4: Rules To Stay
Tricia’s POV
When I left the hospital my mate fallowed me close by as if he suspected me to forget about my duties to my pack and do whatever he wanted me to do.
“We still have to talk about the alliance between our two packs.” I told him as I led him back to the pack house.
“Wait just a minute Mate, I won’t be signing any alliance until we know weather or not your going to fully accept me as your mate.” Alpha Richards told me. And it made since so I didn’t argue or press the matter.
“Okay, but I didn’t have training for myself planned for today. I did however plan to invite you and your men to stay with us tonight for dinner before you went to your pack.” I informed him.
“Alright Mate, but you have to sit on my lap during dinner.” He said as if I wasn’t already thinking that.
I already know how possessive Alpha’s are, and I’m not about to piss him off because then I would have to beat his ass. I just turned around and walked into the pack house when I smelt dinner. I’m guessing that dinner is done so I will just go ask Silvia what we are having and if it’s done then I will take my seat at the head of this table.
“Silvia, what’s for dinner? Please tell me it’s your famous lasagna because that sounds so good.” I asked while laughing.
“Well child, I can confirm that’s what we are having for dinner. It will be done in about five minutes so if you want to take your guests and go get washed up for supper. You know how your momma always go onto you and your father for coming to the table with dirt on your hands.” She said. Silvia has been here for me since the beginning. I don’t know where I would be without her here.
“You heard the lady. Come on I’ll show you and your men to the guest rooms.” I told then while walking up the stairs to the second floor of rooms where his worriers will stay. The next floor is for our teens that choose to stay at the pack house. The fourth floor of the house is where my room is located, and my mate will use the room at the end of the house.
My pack house is an older Victorian style home. Its absolutely beautiful, and its huge so that’s why if I do decide to accept Alpha Richards as my mate then I will not accept leaving my home. We aren’t separated by much land. It’s a 10-minute run in wolf form and a 30-minute drive to his land. Plus, my pack is far bigger than his, so I know that my land will be able to accommodate both packs just fine. We can even build a second pack house if need be.
“Alpha, are you coming down for dinner?” I heard through the mind link.
“I’ll be right down.” I replied as I turn off the water to the sink.
I made my way down stairs and low and behold everyone was waiting on myself before they started eating as it was one of my packs traditions that the Alpha gets the first helping. Since we have two Alpha’s here tonight they must have already informed my mate that it was a tradition. I go and stand next to my Mate and before he can pull me to his lap I cleared my throat to gain everyone’s attention.
“Thank you all for being here on this day. I have something that I want to announce to my pack members, since most of you are here. As you all know I had I meeting to talk about an alliance with Alpha Richards pack, well I am here to let all of you know now that Alpha Richards is my mate.” I paused to look around the room and give everyone time to process all of the information that they have just been told today.
“I know a lot of you are going to have questions regarding what is going to happen with the pack and I want all of you to know that I will have an answer for you at the end of the month. As of right now you do not have anything to worry about and can continue your lives as you always have. I will have a meeting with the whole pack at the end of the month to inform all of you of my decision. That is all so lets eat!” I finished my speech and sat down on my mate’s lap.
“My name is Justin by the way.” He huskily whispered to me.
“We never got the chance to have a proper introduction before so instead of calling me by my last name I would prefer you to call me Justin.” He concluded.
“Alright, and my name is Tricia.” I told him with a smile on my face even though I was blushing and try hard to control my wolf from her slutty desires.
During our meal I made conversation with my pack members and I heard a lot of their concerns. I plan to address those at the meeting with the whole pack. Afterwards I led Justin and his pack members to my office so that we may be introduced and that way we can get some things out in the open because they all seemed really tense, and antisocial at the table.
“Okay as you all know I am the Alpha here, with that being said I have to take into account what is going to be best for MY pack.” I stated with emphasis on my. “Justin and I have discussed it and he has agreed to give me the time that I need to make my decision. I have no problem with you all staying here for that time, but if that happens I want to lay out some ground rules.” I said and looked into my make’s beautiful brown eyes for confirmation that I can continue.
The only indication he gives me that I can continue is a simple nod of his head.
“Rule number one, you will NOT cause any harm to my pack members no matter who is at fault. If you have a quarrel with one of them, you come to myself or Justin.
Rule number two, you will be required to train with the rest of my pack along with the other worriers that are going to be joining us. Training starts at 5am for all of those who do not have school and will be held with my Beta, Taylor Christian, and for those of you that attend schooling of any kind will be required to start training at 4pm.
Rule number three, if you slip off of back grounds and nobody knows of your whereabouts do not come crying to me if one of my guards hurt you. I will have no sympathy for you.
Rule number four, if you don’t remember anything else that I have told you today please do remember this one. Don’t piss me off I will have no problem kicking your ass.”
I laid the rules out to be pretty simple. The whole time I was speaking I could tell my mate was getting aroused by the demanding tone in my voice. He wore his signature smirk the whole time. Now its just to make sure that they all stick to the simple words I have laid out for them.
