The Alphas’ P**n Star Mate
Chapter 44 – The Alphas’ Porn Star Mate

Chloe POV

"Mate," the tall, muscular man practically growled while staring at me. His face was rugged, with a thick beard and messy, unkempt hair. His sun-tanned skin was rough, but his eyes were kind. He was incredibly handsome in a rough sort of way. His eyes were the same color as Mick's. He could have had more features similar to Mick's, but the beard and his tan made it hard to tell.

One thing was sure. I was feeling the pull towards him that made me unable to look away; unable to move. There was no way, but I could not deny the pull towards him. It didn't make sense. I was already mated again. To Mick.

Mick was furiously tense. I could feel his worry the entire drive here. He barely even talked to explain himself further about being a wolf less Alpha. He just muttered, "I was never an Alpha," and asked me to talk about it later, without three curious ears listening in. I could feel his anxiety so I didn't push him and now he has these ranging feelings of disappointment and sadness.

I could feel the pull to this new guy, but Mick was still my mate. I'll be pissed at him later. Right now, I just don't want him to be hurt the way I feel him hurting right now.

The mystery man tried to get closer, his eyes never leaving mine. Mick made a low, deep, threatening sound, shielding me entirely with his body. I let him. Despite the pull, my head was still about me, unlike when I felt the bond with Mick. I was clearly thinking, and the issues I had with being mated again were still at the front of my mind.

"He's our mate too," Cortina said softly, wanting to go forward to claim him, but also feeling the war inside of Mick. She didn't want to hurt him either.

"I didn't want one mate. I sure as hell don't want two. I don't even know who this guy is."

"He's our mate," she said, like it answered everything.

"That's close enough Miles," Mick snapped when the man tried to get even closer, craning his neck to look at me. Meeting his eyes was weakening my resolve, so I did the cowardly thing and buried my face against Mick's back, breaking the spell. "Move, Mick!" The man said forcefully, and I could feel the weight in his words. I knew instantly what that weight meant.

I closed my eyes and scoffed, softly shaking my head in disbelief as I clung to Mick. "Not another Alpha," I whispered in a broken plea to the universe.

Mick's back tensed, and I could feel his anger flare. "You're scaring her. I'm not fucking kidding, Miles. Back the hell up and stop."

"But..... I....."

The man, Miles, had a tremor in his voice like he was fighting himself. It tugged at something inside of me, something I was unable to ignore.

I looked around Mick's back and saw the man with a heart-wrenching expression, longing clearly on his face. What threw me off was it wasn't just directed at me, but at Mick too. It softened my resolve just enough to want to know who he was, at least. "Who is he?" I asked Mick in a quiet whisper.

Mick tensed again, but before he could answer a wolf broke through the tree line and came running up to Miles, shifting halfway.

"Mick!" The naked man yelled, a huge smile on his face.

"Billy," Mick said in recognition, with a lighter tone, without the harshness he used while speaking to Miles.

Before I knew it, Mick was being tackled to the ground, the naked man named Billy rolling on top of him as I jumped back in surprise. "You asshole! Bout fucking time! I didn't miss you at all, you shithead."

"Then get off me!" Mick groaned.

"I didn't miss you a single bit," Billy rubbed his face against Mick's chest like a cat.

"Your dick is touching me! Get off!"

I bit my lips to stifle a giggle. Mick was starting to wrestle with the naked guy, which I found hilarious but adorable, like watching kids wrestling when they first started their training. It's more good-hearted playing than actual sparring. I've never seen Mick like this. My laughter brought the Alpha's attention to me again. I could feel his eyes like they were physically touching me. It made my heart hammer against my chest and my skin prickle with goosebumps. I tried not to look, but I could help it. The pull on the bond was strong. Strangely strong. It reminded me of the pull I felt towards Mick yesterday when he was carrying me to the stage, only the pull was clearly stemming from a mate bond. I was still tied to Cameron when I first felt drawn to Mick, which is why I didn't recognize it for what it was. I am mated to Mick now. Fully. I didn't understand why this was happening, but I felt like I was under a spell once again.

Only one thing could break that spell, and that was my current mate. Mick snarled viciously, throwing his friend off him with a burst of rage and leaping to his feet to block Miles's view of me. He moved with the ability of an Alpha, even if he claimed not to be one. It made that part of me that was reluctant to accept this bond stir.

All eyes were now on Mick. Our guys looked like they were anticipating a fight, one annoying person eager for it. Miles, Billy, the Beta that had been interrogating us before the others showed up, and all the warriors of this pack were staring at Mick in shock, like he had grown an extra head. "You....you got your wolf?" The Beta asked.
