He’s an Alpha She doesn’t Care novel Chapter 55

Jared

He walked from Wynta’s apartment with a smile on his face, as he casually strolled to his car, and connected himself to the retrieval team that were stationed to protect her. ‘I’m headed home. What’s that warrior doing?‘

‘Nothing, just sitting in his car.‘ Came the response.

‘Did he report my being in Wynta’s apartment?‘ he asked curiously as he got into his car, and turned the engine over.

‘Not by phone, no. But it’s possible he could have mind–linked to his Alpha, that would depend on his bloodline and how far his Alpha is, in range or not.‘ He was told.

Jared thought about that, where Wynta’s apartment was and just how far it was to the hotel that Alpha was staying in, as the crow flies. It was completely possible, he realized. If the one sitting here watching her place was of an Elite bloodline, Jared could connect that far to an elite off pack territory but not a regular warrior.

Mind–linking inside a pack was different to outside of pack, if you had the connection to the land as did the receiver of your mind–link, it didn’t matter how far away they were, as long as both were inside the pack it connected.

Outside the pack, you were limited as to how far away you could be before that mind–link just wouldn’t connect at all. ‘Did anyone else turn up?‘

‘Not that any of us saw, he was informed.

‘Alright, stay diligent, if she’s going to be snatched, it’ll be now after I leave, with all that warrior heard. If that Alpha is looking for her to be his Mate, of course.‘ He smiled to himself, knew if that Alpha was looking to reclaim her, he was not going to like it being reported that Jared had just spent hours in her apartment pleasuring the woman.

Jared heard the amusement in the one word that returned to him ‘Agreed.‘ And he cut the link.

Jared let it go, he’d told them it was all an act, but maybe they knew it wasn’t. If any of them had not tuned it out, it was very likely they knew exactly what he’d been doing in their, he shrugged it off wolves liked to f**k. It would be no surprise to them, they likely heard it a

million times before in their line of work.

He headed home where he washed all her toys that he’d taken great pleasure in using on her, and then popped them in a box he had, he’d take them to the office. If she wanted them back, a deal would have to be struck. He smiled to himself something fun and in the office it would be for each one of them.

Though hearing her muttered words of she’d just go and buy more, had nearly made him laugh out loud, perhaps he should be the one to purchase her new toys. He showered and stretched out in his bed, a smile still playing on his lips. He’d more than enjoyed himself, and he knew she had up until he’d denied her, her release that was. But she’d known that was going to happen, and still she’d enjoyed everything he’d done to her.

He had liked watching her try to ignore it when he’d involved her toys in his game or punishment is pleasure with her. The way she’d bitten her lip and tried not to feel anything at all, it was cute her stubbornness.

And her still telling him ‘no‘ to being initiated into the pack. Well, was he really concerned about that right that minute? ‘No‘ was the answer to that question. Because that just meant he could find more reasons to punish her. Saturday could be a lot of fun for him and a part of him really hoped she would refuse to move into the apartment downstairs. Just so he could tie her to his bed and punish her all night long.

Jared slept soundly and woke with a lazy smile still on his face. It seemed that one little rogue female could preoccupy his mind quite a bit. He stood and dressed for the day and wondered what she would wear. He had told her to wear the red suit, would she? His eyes moved to the moonstone band on his wrist, just maybe this full moon would be interesting, after all.

He had a meeting to attend to all morning, and it would likely run into the afternoon, though he’d be out of the office for it, so he’d have to have Jenson’s team keep track of Wynta throughout the day. Though he had noticed she rarely left the marketing floor, so once she was at work, everything should just go smoothly. She would be fine, safe.

He also knew that the team watching her would report to him all her movements if she did leave the office, and seeing as it was his job, according to his father, to protect her. He’d have that team do that if he wasn’t there to do it himself.

He met his unit at the elevator, and he saw the three of them look right at him. “Go somewhere last night?” Dwane asked him with a knowing smile.

“Yes,” he answered with a nod. His unit didn’t always trail him everywhere he went, they were old enough to have their own lives to lead. Unless it was something pack–related, they were allowed to do as they pleased, and move about in the human world attending their human world jobs, go on dates and hang out with others in the pack, or catch up with their families.

Today, the four of them were to be with his father and his unit, to attend pack–related business dealings. Though he had questioned his father as to why Lance and his unit weren’t the ones attending these meetings with him, seeing as it was Lance that was now the next in line.

His father had counted him with his own words, “Son, you are the eldest, and could become the pack’s heir even if all your brothers find their mates and have pups. You could do that yourself a year before Ethan turns 100. So, I believe you need to attend these meetings. All your brothers have attended them before. You, however, living in France have not.”

How could he argue with those words. He’d just nodded and stated he’d attend, only to take a very unhappy call from Lance about it, not long later. To which Jared had told him to speak to their father, he’d voiced it should be Lance attending. Nothing had come of it, of course, his father was the Alpha and would do as he pleased and he and his brothers had to abide by it.

“Head over so we can pick Wynta up,” Jared told Emerson as he got behind the wheel.

“Sure,” Emerson chuckled.

“Knock that crap off. It’s all just an act to see what that other Alpha does. Nothing more,” he’d stated to his unit.

“Sure.” They’d all laughed into the car.

“You just happened to be gone half the night.” Dwane smiled at him. “I’m certain it’s just an act.” He shook his head.

“What did you get up to in that apartment of hers?” Andy asked.

“Role play and nothing more,” he stated simply, and the three of them shook their heads, they were not fooled at all, it seemed.

“Your father will be happy,” Dwane murmured. “Seems he’s getting what he wants after all.”

“He is not.” Jared shook his head. “He told me to charm the woman into becoming a pack member, that’s all I’m doing.”

He heard Andy huff from the front seat. “I don’t think you should play with her like that. It won’t work, and if this Alpha who’s tracking her was her Goddess–Gifted Mate, and is looking to rekindle their bond. It could well push her into his arms once more and your father will be ticked off.”

“It won’t, if she wanted that to happen. She’d never have walked away from him in Monterey.” Jared dismissed it.

“It’s still a risk,” Andy stated, “if you tick her off, and she opts to go back to her home pack, and before the full moon. What then? You’ll never know, and for all you know Jared, she could be your Mate, or any of ours for that matter, and you’re ticking her off could see all of us losing out on the chance to find out if she’s our Mate.”

Jared sighed internally at those words. As he looked at it from that point of view, his eyes once again moved to his moonstone band. Anything was possible, but at the same time, he liked playing with her as well. He wasn’t willing to give up his punishment is pleasure game with her. It was fun for him, and she also liked it. He knew that, because not once had she told him no.

The car pulled up, and he got out and walked to her door, knocked on it and waited for her to open it. She narrowed her eyes upon him as if to say ‘why are you here?‘ and he chuckled just a little, “Morning sweetheart, did you sleep well?” he asked softly.

“I did, actually.” She nodded. “You?”

“Like a baby.” He leaned on her doorway as she went and collected her handbag. She was wearing the blue dress he’d purchased her. “You look good in that dress,” he smiled. Though he really did want to see her in that red suit.

“I do,” She nodded and breezed out of the apartment past him as if it wasn’t him that had bought her that very dress. He chuckled as he followed her, as she played the she doesn’t care game with him. He didn’t think she didn’t care, just wouldn’t let him see that it annoyed her was all.

“Why are they all here?” she muttered as she saw his unit.

“Where I go they go. But don’t worry, I’ll not be in the office most of the day… So you’ll get a relatively Jared free day.” He stated as he opened the door for her to slide into the car ahead of him.

“Morning boys.” She addressed his unit.

“Morning,” they all replied, as he slid into the car next to her, she looked tiny between him and Dwane.

He got out of the car at the office and took her hand. “Let me help you.”

“Enjoying yourself I see,” she murmured as she got out, and then she managed to dodge his lips touching her neck, as she pulled herself quickly from his grip. “I don’t think so,” she stated and walked away.

“Dinner tonight?” he called after her as he scented out that other pack. It was much stronger than normal. They were close by.

“I’ve got a late meeting, so I won’t be able to make it. Find someone else to entertain you,” she called back to him.

He narrowed his eyes on her. She was acting distant with him, cold almost. What game was she playing at now. They were supposed to be playing at being a couple to keep the gossip. about her limited or gone altogether, because who would dare to gossip about his girlfriend, knowing who he was, and that he could fire them for it.
