  Santiago Pack 1

  An Alpha for Me

  Gregory Santiago is Alpha Successor of the Santiago Pack. The war with the vampires is over, and it's time to ensure that their pack is run well and remains self-sufficient. As the largest pack in the US and the pack to which all others look to, Gregory is the cornerstone in ensuring their pack never loses the feeling of pack dynamic.

  Will Mendez is a gamma, a type of wolf shifter, not strong like an Alpha or beta nor exhibiting the qualities of an omega. But the gammas are softer, kinder, and a balance to their Alpha and Beta counterpart in the absence of an omega. With him and his three brothers on the run from murder charges against the youngest son of the third largest pack in the US, he never imagined meeting his mate.

  But when the past comes calling, what will happen to their mating?

  Chapter One

  Gregory Santiago, next in line for the Alpha seat of the biggest pack in the U.S., confidently made his way into the Alpha’s main house in the compound and toward his father’s office. He had been summoned by his father, the current Alpha, demanding his immediate attention. In his own opinion, things had been progressing smoothly, thus leaving him with a blank as to what could be so urgent.

  The Santiago pack was a very large one, and it was in fact, the biggest pack in the entire U.S. The Pack was a city all on its own with each pack member living in their separate homes around the Alpha compound and in the city. The Alpha compound was located right at the heart of the city, making the place more accessible to the pack members and the Alpha more approachable. The pack had one of every business in the city, with no two shops having the same purpose and their population far outnumbered their neighboring packs.

  Pack wolves were divided into four ranks. Alphas, the ultimate leaders and those who wished to become enforcers, securing the pack borders as well as defending their pack should they wish not to leave the pack to form one of theirs. Betas, the law keepers and second in hierarchy to the Alphas, both the leaders and the enforcers together. Gamma, a type of wolf not strong like an Alpha or a Beta nor exhibiting qualities of an Omega but a softer, kinder species and the perfect balance to their Alpha and Beta counterpart in the absence of an Omega, and the Omega species, a rare type of wolf who were closer to mother nature and exhibited qualities and powers far beyond the magic of shifting and what anyone else could do. They were also mediators with their final unbiased verdict the absolute law to any conflict.

  The treaty the Santiago Pack had brokered with King Kevyan Melrose of the Melrose Coven, who was the king of the entire vampire race, was in full effect. And as the pack to which all others looked to, every other pack across the globe had followed the lead of the Santiago Pack, brokering a peace treaty with every Vampire Coven in an effort to stop the centuries long war between the species, which had resulted from an unforgivable act by an Alpha against the Vampire Princess.

  Peace had not been easy to achieve, especially when they’d all come to realize that the fault indeed lay with the Shifter kind, but war weary, they had all been desperate to put a stop to the deaths and massacre of war and an agreement was reached between the two species. Had it not been for the presence of an Omega—the first ever seen in centuries—there was no guaranteeing the tentative peace between the two species of shifters and vampires. But with their omega mated to the Vampire king and the undisputed facts of the whys and whens of the reason of war, they’d all seen for themselves with their own eyes, restitutions were made and peace brokered.

  Trade had opened between the two species in the form of the nightclub set up and managed by both species with Shawn McKay, a beta from their pack, and Justin Chandler, second-in-command to King Kevyan, taking over the reins of the club. A few of the pack members had gone to work in the club, thus encouraging the tentative interaction between the two species.

  What else could be the problem that would now demand his attention? He had no idea but was all for hearing about it. When rumors about an omega had reached them during the ongoing war between the two races, Gregory had been the one to silently infiltrate the vampire mansion to confirm the fact.

  To say he had been unprepared for what he discovered was a complete understatement. The truth was that he had been completely blown away by what he had discovered. Never in a million years had he expected to find the missing brother they had all longed for and searched for given the limited resources they
had and the battle they’d fought with the vampire race.

  He had not only found his missing brother, Dorian Keller, but he had also discovered that his brother was an omega. A very rare type of werewolf. In fact, the omega was such that they were a species that had been unseen for centuries. To know that his brother, who had been lost at birth, was one and the same and, more than that, the mate of the vampire king had knocked the wind right out of him.

  Once the surprise had worn off, they had been hit by another surprise, experiencing but a small fraction of Dorian’s omega powers. When Alpha Stephen, their father, as well as several alphas from neighboring packs had realized that Dorian would only agree to have anything to do with them and the wolves if they were willing to compromise, they had quickly agreed to come to an understanding. The mating of their omega with the king of the vampire race had grudgingly been accepted when left with no other choice, and that had been the beginning of the peace between the two species. Both species were wary and distrustful of the other but not outright or openly voicing their opinions.

  It was extremely clear that both species were tired of the war and constant battle, hence, in his opinion, they had all jumped at the first sign of peace without either of the groups having to submit first.

  Opening the door, Gregory stepped into his father’s study, shut it behind him, and nodded to his father before settling himself comfortably on one of the chairs. A strange scent, so seductive and alluring it called to his wolf, filled his nose, and he inhaled deeply. Turning, Gregory traced the scent from its source, noticing the other men in the room for the first time, as he had been preoccupied earlier.

  His gaze glanced off the large burly-looking men until he came to a stop on one smaller than the rest. In fact, it seemed as though they had all been shielding the man, but the breathtaking, androgynous face, which peeked at him from behind one of the men, arrested his attention.

  In short, the man was beauty incarnate with his full head of reddish-brown, short hair and the chocolate eyes peering at him. Gregory felt his cock thicken and harden in his pants and his wolf growl and snap in possessiveness, wanting to have the man all to himself. His wolf was howling with giddy anticipation and unable to tame the beast, Gregory leapt to his feet and stalked the man.

  In three long strides, Gregory reached out and pulled the man out from behind those who were shielding him from his gaze. Three pairs of eyes snapped to him, and the men started to form a barricade around the smaller man, but Gregory bared his teeth, eyes flashing in challenge.

  “Mine,” Gregory snarled.

  Pulling the smaller man to him and wrapping his arms around the man, he dared the others to confront him, but when he saw them sniff and relax their stance, he followed suit, holding his mate tightly to his body but not letting his guard down completely. Gregory buried his nose into his mate’s neck, inhaling deeply with his gaze trained on those around them.

  “Mate. Mine.” Gregory snarled again, baring his teeth and forcing his alpha will on them to back down or challenge him.

  Three sets of eyes widened in surprise, and then as one, all stepped back. Satisfied that he and his mate were no longer in threat, Gregory swung the smaller man into his arms and marched away, leaving the door open in his wake.

  Soft lilting laughter floated to his ears as Gregory moved with speed, filled with the desire to rip the clothes off his gorgeous mate’s body and plow into him. Looking down, he gazed at his mate, puzzled as to why the man was laughing, even though the sound soothed and pleased his beast.

  “What?” Gregory growled, his arousal thick, as it affected his voice.

  “I’ve never been carried by a man before,” his mate said, beaming widely at him. “I love it.”

  Gregory grunted. “What’s your name, pup?”

  “Will Mendez. My brothers are very protective of me. I’m surprised they let me go with you,” Will said with a chuckle.

  Gregory growled, his wolf rearing its head up at the “let me” part of Will’s words. He scoffed. As if those brutes could stop him from doing what he wanted. “You are my mate, Will. I would hate to kill your brothers should they try to keep you from me.”

  Will frowned. “You can’t kill them. They are all the family I have.”

  Gregory sighed. “I don’t plan on killing them unless they provoke it.”

  Will nodded. “That’s good enough for me,” He said, taking in the man whom fate had decided was for him. Licking his lips hungrily, and seeming restless with giddiness, he asked, “Are we going to fuck?”

  Gregory groaned, and there was a hitch in his steps as those words, spoken through those delicious lips in that masculine voice, shot straight to his dick, which hardened instantly.

  “You are so gorgeous. I’ve never had sex before, but I can’t wait. I want you to fuck me hard and deep, then fast, then slow like in romance novels.”

  Gregory groaned lustily. “Pup…” The sound strained and strangled at the image his mate was painting for him. Hearing that this would be his mate’s first time was enough to make him shoot, but he needed in that tight ass before he could allow himself his release.

  “Do you think I’m beautiful?” Will asked, sucking his bottom lip into his mouth and gently biting down in an erotic movement.

  Gregory was so hot he was about burning up with desire and lust for his provocative mate. His mate was sin on two legs, and when he opened his mouth, Gregory found himself wanting to do crazy things to those plump, tempting lips.

  “You know you’re damned beautiful, and if you don’t quit, I’ll take you against this wall, and I won’t care if anyone sees.”

  “Can we? Can we? Oohhhhh. That would be even more delicious. Let’s do it.”

  Gregory about popped out of his jeans with the motherfucking erection straining hard against the offending material. “Lord help me.” He moaned breathily, burying his face into his mate’s neck as he hurried faster through the hall and slammed open the door to his bedroom, kicking it shut.

  Chapter Two

  Gregory threw the man down onto his big comfortable bed and followed, lying on top of the smaller man. He took the other man’s lips in a brutal kiss, desperate to taste and to feel those soft tempting lips against his. He was soon rewarded with a moan as Will surrendered to his touch, giving as much as he was receiving, even in his inexperienced enthusiasm for his mate.

  “Exquisite. Beautiful and all mine.” Gregory growled with possessiveness

  A giggle-turned-moan escaped from the beautiful man in Gregory’s arms. “Less talking, more fucking.”

  Gregory growled and buried his face in his mate’s shoulder, taking in the other man’s delicious scent. “Bossy little shit.”

  Gregory bit and nibbled on Will’s shoulder, sucking the flesh vigorously into his mouth to leave his mark on Will. He relished the feeling of satisfaction that came over him when Will arched into his mouth and pulled his head tighter against him with his hands on Gregory’s nape.

  “Kiss me, mate!” Will demanded, “I want to feel your lips on mine again.”

  “Gladly.” Gregory let go of the skin he was sucking on and slanted his mouth onto Will’s.

  Gregory licked into the sweet hole that was Will’s mouth, driving his tongue in and out as he tasted the delicious heat in there. He drew Will’s inexperienced tongue out to play, relishing teaching the other man every carnal pleasure he knew and liked.

  Without breaking off the kiss, Gregory pulled Will’s legs wide apart and settled comfortably between them. With his thick cock tenting his pants, he thrust against Will, hitting and nudging Will’s cock and balls, nailing him every time he dry-humped the man.

  Gregory tore his mouth away, allowing them both to take in a much-needed breath, and then he began kissing his way down Will’s neck, grunting at the moans of delight the little man released. Fumbling between their bodies, Gregory worked the button and zipper of Will’s pants free. Gregory sat up away from Will and straddling his mate’s stomach, bent,
and growled against Will’s ear.

  “Get these off you.” Gregory growled, wanting to tear the fabric away with his claws but resisting for his mate’s safety.

  Will used the momentum of his feet against the bed to lift up then pulled his pants and boxers all off in one go. Will panted and sighed when Gregory took his earlobe in one mouth and bit down gently then began sucking on it. He cried out Gregory’s name when the other man withdrew, blew on the moist ear, then continued sucking once more. It was so erotic what Gregory was doing to him, that Will had no other choice than to give himself up to the expert mouth of his mate. “More, Gregory. I need,” Will said on a whimper.

  Gregory trailed open-mouthed, wet kisses down Will’s body, stopping to pull the buttoned down shirt off Will before continuing. He stared down at his mate, trailing his eyes down the perfection bared before him and licking his lips.

  “So perfect.”

  Gregory trailed kisses on Will’s naked body until he reached one of Will’s nipples and pulled the small, round nub into his mouth. He bit down gently, sucking and laving at it until it was painfully erect and sensitive, drawing moans from the smaller man under him.

  “Gregory!” Will yelled, then arched into the man’s mouth, hands holding Gregory’s head securely to him.

  Gregory placed a kiss directly on Will’s heart then moved onto the other nipple, paying it some more attention. Gregory was soon trailing more kisses down Will’s body, moving to dip his tongue into Will’s navel then crawling until he was soon between Will’s thighs. He lifted one of Will’s thighs in his hand and held on to it, dropping a kiss to it. Then he began laving and kissing it, trailing his mouth up toward Will’s pelvis.
