Winter Rejected By One Alpha Love By Another One
Chapter 15

Later that night after making love Shane and Winter are laying face to face wrapped around each other. They're discussing Nicholas searching for her. Neither one can figure out why is he having his members calling all the packs.

"Star Eyes did you ever reveal your name to him?" He's looking at her concerned.

She shakes her head. "No, I didn't. As far as I know, he still doesn't know who I am. My father had commanded me not to let anyone know who I was. Even when Nicholas rejected me I still didn't say my last name. Yes, I know that I was rejected for a pack. But I don't know any of the details. Bob sure was happy as hell"

"Bob?" Shane leans his head back a little looking at her confused. "Star Eyes, who's Bob? How did you find out the reason for your rejection?"

Winter laughs "Irving is Bob. He has a lot of stale jokes that are only funny to him." She stops laughing and looks at him seriously. "Igor, Irving's wolf was concerned about Nicholas and Wilder. But I blocked him out because the reason why didn't and doesn't matter to me. My parents, especially my father always said that some people's greed will get the best of them. That in the end, that person will always get what they deserve."

Shane kisses her forehead. "Star Eyes I did hear a little bit about it. I was waiting until I had the full story before I told you. In case you had questions. I wanted to be able to give them to you. I wasn't and never will keep anything from you. Winter moves closer to him. "I know that you won't keep anything from me. Thank you for taking care of me the other night."

I'll always be open and honest with you. Good communication makes a relationship stronger." He smells her hair. "Now are you going to tell me what you're planning for me?"

She laughs' "Nope If I tell you then it won't be a surprise."

"True but it is another ride on the Ferris wheel. Then we can go right now. Damn, I still can't get over the things we did in that seat. That was one hell of a date night." He's still smelling her hair "We definitely have to take it with us." "Sorry to disappoint you but it's not a ride on the Ferris wheel. I agree we do have to take it with us. But I promise you that you won't be disappointed." She slides out of bed and walks to the bathroom.

He's smiling looking at her beautiful naked body. When Optimus starts humming again. "Okay, now what is with you and this humming? You don't hum?' Shane is talking to his wolf

"Well now that we have our Star Eyes and Rieka why can't I hum. Especially now that we have everything that we ever wanted" Optimus fades out

Shane is repeating what Optimus told him. He's brought out of his thoughts when Winter straddles him. Are you ready for round five, McDreamy"

He pushes his hard shaft inside her hot cherry. "You tell me, Star Eyes" Shane winks at her

"Ooooh McDreamy" She moans as he flips her on her back

The twins are in Harper's bedroom. They are on a portal call with their mates. All four of them are concerned about Taffy's connections with the rogues that were hanging outside of Winter and their apartment. Bronson has managed to find out through a relative that Irving and Morlock made the deal but forced Nicholas into it. What Irving used against Nicholas is unknown. Also, that Taffy is peed off because Nicholas refuses to share her bed. That Nicholas pack members don't recognize her as the Luna.

"Well, King Reese has ordered us to meet you all with some warriors. He doesn't want to take any chances since word has gotten out that a new queen is being crowned. He is concerned that some of his enemies have discovered that Winter is his daughter and might come after her. The King is also concerned because he doesn't know how many enemies Shane has. He just wants everyone here safe." Ace is looking at Harper smiling.

"That just you two excuses to see us sooner" Harpers smiles looking at the two men

Both men laugh "True"

"Ace and I do miss you two. I know that we came to visit you three weeks ago. But we can't wait to have you two home with us." Bronson winks at Parker

"Bronson is right. I'm going to see if I can get the names of the rogues that Taffy hangs out with. Just in case she decides on another attempt after finding out who Winter is. I checked to see if Nicholas has RSVP. he and his father both have. But we'll make sure that security is tight for the party. " Ace smiles looking at Harper. "I miss you Kitten"

Harper smiles "I miss you too babe"

Parker blows Bronson a kiss.

He pretends to catch it and hold it close to his heart.

After talking for ten more minutes they say goodnight. Parker looks at Harper. What do you think Irving used to make Nick reject Winter?"

"I don't know but we'll find out. I'm just glad that Shane was and is here for her. Those two belong together. Hopefully, Nick won't' cause any trouble." Harper is looking at her gown for the party.

"But as for Loose Legs, she better think again before she comes after Winter. Even though Winter is mated to her McDreamy she still owes that b***h a good a*s-whooping." Parker is holding up a pair of black leather Gucci 3 1/2 sandals.

"Oh hell yes. perfect." Harper reaches for the shoes. "If Winter doesn't want to get her hands dirty on the b***h. I'll volunteer to beat the hell out of Loose Legs Taffy."

"Something just occurred to me. For some reason, I have a feeling that you don't have to volunteer. I believe that Winter is already planning that thang's demise." Parker laughs

****

"Damn it Winter turn your damn phone on. Hell at least, you can return my call or text me that you're safe" Nicholas yells as he walks to the table to have breakfast.

Taffy looks at him and rolls her eyes. She's about to say something. But he looks at her. "Don't say a f*****g thing."

Sabrina chuckles looking at Taffy. "Son I'm sure that she's fine. She just needs some time to herself to comprehend all of this just as you and I do. To be honest I don't think either of us can stomach this situation or these two for too much longer. She looks at Taffy and Irving. Irving takes a deep breath looking at Sabrina. "Dear, I'm right here. Why are you speaking about me as if I'm not here?"

"That's because the man that I mated with years ago doesn't exist anymore. He has turned into a greedy bastard that will sell his son to the devil." She looks at him and points at Taffy.

Taffy's mouth is wide open looking at Sabrina.

Blake walks into the room. "Nick, can I see you for a minute?" He rolls his eyes at Taffy

Nicholas nods his head and stands up

"Oh Nick I'm going out for lunch with some friends" Taffy is talking to him but is still looking at Sabrina

He turns to look at her. "What you do is your business. If you need money then your s**t out of luck. Mother, can you have someone bring my breakfast to my office?"

"Yes go ahead." Sabrina is getting up from the table. Nicholas looks at Blake "Tell me that you have found Winter."

Blake looks at him and motions with his head

Taffy mental screams

Irving is looking at Sabrina walking into the kitchen. He snaps his head looking at Taffy. "You're worthless. Hell even more worthless than that damn Winter. At least she was in the damn-giving mood. All your a*s had to do was give my son an heir to the pack. I should send your a*s back to your lying a*s father and slutty mother. Just stay out of my damn sight. Don't do anything to embarrass us at the palace." He throws his napkin on the table and walks out of the room.

Taffy jumps up and runs down the hall. She's stopped by Kirby. "Why are you n such a big hurry?' Kirby loos at her.

"Nicholas is still looking for that b***h" She screams.

Kirby leans closer to her. "From what I heard you have a bigger problem to worry about. It seems that you were behind that attack the other night. Now you all the members angry. By all, I do mean all. Your old pack is furious as ever because their friends and family were killed. Some say that you tried to seduce the Alpha and failed. They want to see you dead."

"s**t" Taffy whispers but is mentally yelling.

"So it is true. I knew that you have done some pretty low things to get the Alpha. Not once did I think that you would start a war to f**k the Alpha. I can't be seen talking to you." Kirby walks away shaking her head.

Taffy is looking around the hall to make sure that no one was around to hear the conversation. "I can't believe it. How in the hell did they find out?" She's walking toward Nicholas. "That is just a waste of time. I have to find a way to win him and that dame wolf of his over." She mumbles.

In Nicholas's office, Hayden was waiting on the two men. "When are we getting rid of that b***h?" Hayden yells

"Soon. What did the prisoner say?" Nicholas sits behind his desk.

Hayden plops down in a chair. "The mother ordered them to attack us. Morlock wasn't aware of it. It seems that Penelope has always been controlling them to attack not only us. But also has some rogues friends. Dan the prisoner said that they had planned on kidnapping Winter. But never had the chance."

"I knew, Damn it that night at Cuddle Bugs I knew something was off. As for Taffy, I have a big-a's surprise for her. b***h had her wolf Tunic try to seduce Wilder. Hell, he put her in her place fast as hell. But he's still acting weird. He also said that he'll never stop looking for Rieka no matter long it takes." Nicholas nods his head. "I agree with him.

Blake sigh before he looks at Nicholas. "We still don't have any news about her. But we found out that Shane Atkinson has found his second chance mate."

"Good for him I have always thought that he was a fair and good Alpha. I still don't know why my father detests him and his father. Who is she?' Nicholas is trying to call winter again.

Blake and Hayden shook their head looking at him

"Damn it Cuddle Bug" Nicholas yells and rubs his chin. "Anything else?"

"Nope " Both men are looking at him.

"Just find her. I can't wait to see if she'll be at the coronation I need her here with me now" He yells again

"Good luck" Blake is thinking, still looking at him

At Shane's pack, the members have been packing the main house before daylight. Now it's the afternoon and the only room that hasn't been packed is the bedrooms that are occupied. Shane, Gage, and Dimitri are doing the last official pack business. They have been in there all day. He's looking at Tonya and Flora walking in to pack his office up.

"Well, now it seems real" Shane looks around his office.

Patrice packed our stuff last night. Man, she was like a tornado." Gage laughs.

Dimitri laughs "Same with Yolanda you can tell that they are sisters. It seems that now that they have finally met Winter. They are more excited about moving."

"What in the hell is that noise" Shane looks into the hall he sees Winter, Parker, and Harper walking past his office with several men. Tonya looks at him "We can't tell you"

"I want to know what Star Eyes is up to" Shane smiled "As your Alpha, I command you to tell me."

"Sorry but your mate ordered me not to say a word to either of you " Tonya looks a little nervous. She has never disobeyed him before.

Shane, Gage, Dimitri, and Flora are looking at her in disbelief.

"Oh s**t that's right Star Eyes is a higher rank than me." he chuckles. "I'll have to get used to that. But it's all good. You both and your mates will be attending the event. Star Eyes and I will let you all know your ranks soon. She said that she wants to speak to her father about a few details before we arrive." Shane is looking at Winter walking back past his office. "What my beautiful Star Eyes doing. s**t, should I be worried?

Down the hall, the twins are telling Winter about the conversation that they had with their mates. "Okay do whatever you feel is necessary just make sure that we're ready to leave here in the morning. Shane and I moved the day up since he sold his land quicker than expected. I need to discuss something with my father. I want to change the order of the crowning and my belated birthday party." Winter is rubbing her stomach with a slight frown "Are you alright" Harper looks at her concerned.

"Yeah, I guess I'm having butterflies about the big day." Winter rubs her stomach again and shakes her head.

Parker walks over to her. "Are you sure?'

"Girl yeah. Now did you get the song that I asked for?" She looks at Harper.

"Yep everything is ready" Harper is still looking at her worried.

"Good I'm going to my room." She's also communicating with someone through the link. She smiles.

What do you think that's about?" Harper asks looking at Winter

"I hate to say what I think" Parker shakes her head looking at Winter than at her sister.

Harper turns to look at her. "Oh no"

When Winter walks into the room Shane is already there waiting on her. "I hope this is appropriate for my surprise." he's dressed in white jeans and a white tee-shirt.

"Perfect" she's undressing.

Shane is looking at her confused "Star Eyes I'm feeling overdressed.

"Oh no, you're perfect. This dress is not appropriate for the occasion. She slides on a pair of white shorts and a white crop top. "Now let's go McDreamy" She takes his hand leading him out of the room.

Shane chuckle she leads him past his office into a room that has been emptied.

"Surprise" She yells as they walk into the room.

"Are you serious" He looked around a room that has been converted into a skating rink. "Oh, Star Eyes I haven't skated since I did with you. I don't know about this." He's looking at two pairs of skates on the floor beside a table.

"I promise I won't let you fall" She kisses his cheek.

"Okay." He laughs as they are putting their skates on.

Shane stands up and extends his hand to her and helps her up. He leads her to the floor and gives her a peck on her lips. Shane turns her around she lays her back against him. He has his left hand around her waist. His right hand is on her upper thigh. She lays her head back on his shoulder and right hand around his neck. As she starts slow dancing to Spend My Life With You, by Eric Bene't and Tamia.

I never knew such a day could come

And I never knew such a love could be inside of one

I never knew what my life was for

But now that you're here, I know for sure

I never knew 'til I looked in your eyes (oh, baby)

I was incomplete 'til the day you walked into my life, ooh

And I never knew that my heart could feel

So precious and pure, our love is so real

Can I just see you every morning when I open my eyes

Can I just feel your heart beating beside me every night

Can we just feel this way together 'til the end of all time

Can I just spend my life with you

After the song, she turns to look at him. "I love you, McDreamy. Thank you so much for loving me for me"

"I love you more than anything. You're my life, Star Eyes" Shane kisses her.

****

The next day Patrice, Yolanda, Ariel, and Ciara are making sure that all the members of the pack are loaded and ready to leave. Shane, Gage, and Dimitri are talking to the warriors. Shane is also informing them that some of the royal warriors will be meeting them along the way.

After giving the pack their orders Shane walks over to Winter. She wraps her arms around him." I should have told you who I was before we mated. Now you're leaving your home because of me."

"It wouldn't have made any difference. I'll follow you anywhere." He kisses her forehead.
