Page 148 of The Alpha and His Song: Volume One

Eventually I said, “Nothing. Because we are not dating.” Lisa shrieked, “Yes, we are! We are meant to be together, we always were!” I argued, “We aren’t, but I’ll bite. What did you get me?” Lisa’s jaw dropped, “You know Valentine’s Day isn’t about you. You get me presents, not the other way around.” I snorted, “Typical, I’m leaving.” Lisa yelled, “No you aren’t!” I heard a growl behind us.

To my astonishment it was Malachi. The Beta of the pack said, “Lisa, you don’t want to get between me and my plans with MY mate. Get out of Keaton’s way.” Lisa sneered, “This isn’t your business.” I warned, “Don’t you ever talk to him like that again!” Channing shifted on a dime and snarled at her.

Malachi said, “Channing, it’s fine.” Channing snapped his jaws. Kincade Famer called, “Channing, I’m here too. It will be ok.” Lisa scoffed, “He won’t hurt me.” Malachi shouted, “Shut up!” Channing lunged and bit her, hard enough to break the skin.

Lisa screamed, “How dare you!” Colton chuckled, “You were warned. Stopped messing with an Alpha blood, Lisa. You’ll lose your life. Keaton, shift back.” Channing huffed, “I should’ve gone for the bone.” I shifted back and someone snapped clothes on me.

Malachi pursed his lips, “By the way Lisa, you’ll be running a border patrol at night for the next month as their shadow. Would you care to make that two months?” Lisa shrieked, “Keaton, do something Your wolf bit me, and Malachi is being unreasonable!”

I offered, “I’d go for six months, Malachi. Oh and Lisa, his name is Beta Malachi to you.” Lisa started crying and reached for me. Kincade and Colton stopped her, but Channing had already taken over to jump into my truck to avoid her touch.

I asked, “What the hell Channing?” Channing answered, “I don’t know, it was just an instinct.” Ok then. I demanded, “Move, Lisa.” Lisa screamed, “No.” Colton shrugged, “Run her over, Keaton.” Malachi groaned then took over and had to physically remove Lisa from behind my truck. I took off.

I linked him, “Thanks, Malachi.” He replied, “No problem. Now your ex needs to calm down so I can get to Adlee.” I linked Colton, “Don’t you have plans?” Colton replied, “I’m on my way now. I told Malachi to let her scream down the pack.” I nearly laughed.

Colton’s Beta was probably on the way to help given Kincade had left as well. Malachi did do me a favor, and Adlee awesome. Really Adlee was the nicest she wolf. Unless someone tried to mess with her plans, then she was cutthroat. I linked her, “Hi, Adlee.” She answered, “This is a surprise. Hi, Keaton.”

I said, “Well, I wanted to help. I know you don’t like your plans being interrupted.” Adlee growled, “Alexandria has Emmett tied up, quite literally, all evening. What could’ve happened?!” I said, “Wow. That was too much information. Though I’m definitely giving Emmett shit about that. Lisa was keeping Malachi from getting to you when I drove off.”

Adlee yelled, “That fucking bitch! I’ll handle it.” I said, “Thanks! I hope you have a good Valentine’s Day.” Adlee confidently stated, “Oh, I will. I’m going to sic my grandmother in law on that wicked bitch.” I laughed knowing Isabella would get Lisa for sure.

I drove to Odette’s place, took the stairs to get their faster, then knocked when I arrived at her door. Immy answered the door as Odette ran out of her room. My mate looked at Immy, perplexed. Immy smiled, “I got the dish out of the oven, and I opened the door for Keaton.”

Odette asked, “But how did you…?” My mate quickly stopped herself. They were looking at each other, but I was looking at Odette’s outfit. Channing agreed, “Who cares what they are talking about? LOOK AT MATE!” I was.

Odette had on ripped skinny jeans and a red sweater with white hearts. She looked amazing. I blinked at her and lost my voice. Odette had red lipstick on too. God, why was that so hot? Channing growled in my head. Immy announced, “I’ll just be leaving. Have fun.”

The second the door shut I grabbed Odette and pulled her into me. I kissed her hard on the lips. When I pulled back, she whispered, “Happy Valentine’s Day, Key.” I kissed her lightly before replying, “Happy Valentine’s Day.”

Odette smiled, “I made lasagna and cheese bread from scratch.” I looked around the apartment. I observed, “You also decorated.” Odette giggled, “Immy did.” I nodded, “It looks great.” She sat me at the table and then put everything on plates.

The food was really good. I told her, “You did an amazing job.” Odette smiled, “I had to learn how to cook, but I’ve never made lasagna before.” I leaned over and kissed her, “Well I wouldn’t have known, because it was wonderful.” My mate blushed, “Thank you.”

I linked Ken, “I left Katie’s present in my truck. Can you bring it up?” Ken snorted, “Yup.” I asked, “Do you have any plans tonight?” Ken answered, “Later, yes.” I said, “Well, I hope you enjoy it.” A few minutes later Ken knocked on the door.

I opened it and he came through with the wrapped gift. Odette gasped, “What on earth did you do?” I nervously admitted, “I made a gift for my girl.” Odette’s eyes filled with tears, “You made me something? Made it? For me? Really? No one has ever made me anything.”

Ken said, “Aww.” We both looked at him causing him to straighten. Ken quickly declared, “I didn’t say that out loud.” He left and went into the hallway. Odette whispered, “I didn’t make you anything.” I disagreed, “You made me dinner.”

Odette argued, “That’s not the same.” I told her, “I haven’t done anything like this for a while, but you inspired me.” My mate smiled and tore open the present. Her jaw dropped and a few tears leaked out. Odette whispered, “You made this?”

I teased, “Well, not the books. I bought those for you, but I carved the bookshelf.” My mate ran her fingers over the carvings. I’d added an O and a K to it at the last minute. Odette turned and launched herself into my lap, pressing her lips to mine.

I pulled back asking, “Do you like it?” Odette gushed, “I love it, Key.” She threw her top off over her head. I growled, “What the fuck?!” She had on a red bra that was see through. She jumped back off me and winked.

I growled, “Odette.” My mate announced, “My present for you is in my room. Let’s go see it.” She sauntered away and my eyes went straight to her ass. My mouth watered as I moved after her. I ran my hands over her ass.

Odette nervously handed me a bag. I threw the tissue paper out of it and my brain blanked. My mate quickly said, “We don't have to but….” I asked, “My Song wants to use this?” Channing purred, “Yes.” Odette gulped but nodded. Channing was delighted, “Use them all now.”

I felt something very primal taking over me. Odette had gotten fuzzy handcuffs, a blindfold, and a paddle. I ordered, “Take off your pants.” My mate shivered then did exactly what I said. I commanded, “Now, get onto the bed.”

Odette practically jumped onto the bed. I took my shirt off and grabbed the blindfold. I slid it over her eyes then quickly handcuffed her. Odette whispered, “Keaton.” I said, “Tell me anytime you want to stop and I will.” She nodded.

I nibbled down her whole body. I grabbed the paddle and lightly tapped the inside of her thighs. Odette moaned, “Key.” That set me off. I ripped off her underwear to lick her clit. I got Odette close then backed off, causing my mate to whimper.

I lifted her legs in the air and swatted her on the butt with the paddle. Odette yelled, “Keaton!” I chuckled, “I’m just getting started with my present.” I had no idea where this was coming from, but I liked it. Channing agreed, “I like it too, it’s the best.”

I liked seeing my mate like this, and I liked that I could smell how aroused she was. I really liked feeling in charge like this. I could see faint impressions of the heart on the paddle. I was rock hard at the sight. I growled, “Fuck!”
