The Alpha’s Fight for His Omega by Jess K

Chapter 78

Chapter 78

***Rowen***

The time seemed to crawl by for me, and I could hardly sit still. In just a few hours I would get to spend another weekend with my sweet girl. After a month apart we needed it. I know we had spent sometime together the previous weekend, but it was minimal as we were both busy with getting ready for Melissa, and Ross’s ceremony. This weekend would be a bit different. I would get there in time to have dinner with her, sleep with her in my arms tonight. I knew some of her time tomorrow would be spent getting ready for Robert’s swearing in ceremony, but we had all day Sunday for just us. I arranged it that way on purpose as we never really got that.

Now if the time would just move faster. I was in my father’s office going over the plans for the community center, as well as the needs list, but I couldn’t stay focused. I kept glancing at the time, but it didn’t seem to move, at all. I looked up when my father sighed, and dropped his pen on his desk.

“Son, you’re not paying any attention.” My dad grumbled.

“I’m sorry.” I muttered.

“What’s going on with you? This is your project, but you’re not paying a bit of attention. I’ve asked you the same question five times now.”

“I’m excited to see Chastity. We’ve had so little time together.”

“I know. I get it.”

“Did you ever have to go through this with mom?”

“Yes. There were a few times that I had to spend a month or more away from her. I felt like I was losing my mind. We didn’t have video chat back then or any of it. We had phone calls, and mail. That was it.”

“That had to suck.”

“It did, but we got through it. How do you think we ended up with you before we even planned to start having pups?”

“Dad! Really. I don’t need to know this.”

“Well now you do.”

“Did you, and mom want more pups?”

“We did, but after Gina your mom stopped being able to have more. We tried for awhile, but eventually we gave up. It was too much stress on your mother, and it broke her heart every time she didn’t get pregnant. We had a good life.”

“It’s still hard for you, isn’t it?”

“Every single day. Your mother was the best woman in the world. Our life was pretty perfect.”

“Do you ever consider looking for your second chance mate?”

“No. Nothing would ever be better than what your mother, and I shared. Would it be nice to have a woman to share things with, sure, but it’s not something I need.”

“She wouldn’t want you to be alone though.”

“I know that, but right now I’m not ready. I have you, and I have Gina. That’s all I need in my life. If I’m meant to have a second chance mate, I guess I’ll meet her when the time is right. Right now though who ever she is would be left heartbroken because I’m just not ready.”

“I can understand that.”.

“Yeah. Besides I figure I’ll have some grandpups running around here some day that are going to keep me plenty busy.”

“Yeah well you have a long time to wait for that.”

“At least four years.”

“How do you figure only four?”

“Chastity will be gone for three. Gina, and Braxton will be just old enough to realize they are mates when she comes home. I figure about a year after that one of my pups will have a pup of their own.”

“No pressure or anything there dad. I think Chastity would like some time to be a midwife and Luna for a bit before she becomes a mother. Wait. Did you say Gina, and Braxton?”

“Sure. Braxton may not realize it yet, but he’s circling her as much as she’s circling him. He’s a bit slow on that one.”

“He’s also a few months younger than she is. The teen hormones haven’t quite kicked in yet.”

“You were about his age when you started chasing the girls around.”

“I….I was not.”

“Bullshit son. You think I don’t know what you were up to back then? Why do you think I had your mother giving you a shot once a month, and had you getting them when you went off to school?”

“Wait! You put me on birth control without me knowing it?”

“Of course I did. I’m not stupid.”

“Dad! I ALWAYS used protection! ALWAYS!”

“Nothing is one hundred percent effective. I knew I couldn’t stop you from behaving like the typical Alpha male you are so I did what my father did. Made sure that you didn’t end up with something you weren’t ready for,”

“I’m not sure if I should thank you or kick your ass. You know I made sure to get those damn shots once a month even on my trip? Good thing too.”

“Typical.”

“Seriously?”

“Of course. I had my fun in my younger days.”

“And that is the end of that conversation.”

“Alright. You ready to get back to this?”

-“Yes.”

At 12:00 we stopped working, and I headed off to my apartment to shower, change, and make sure I had everything I would need this weekend. My suit was in a suit bag, I had clothes, extra shirts and a hoodie for Chastity, as well as my toiletries, and the gift I got Chastity for tomorrow. It was a white gold charm bracelet that had several flower charms on it. I hoped she liked it. Once I was sure I had everything packed, I grabbed my stuff, and headed to the cars. I was surprised to see Colby putting bags into the back of the SUV.

“You’re coming with us?” I asked

“Yeah. Lex called me the other night, and asked me to be a buffer between her, and Anthony. The twit is leaving the pack next week, and has been bugging the shit out of her. She thinks if he sees her with another guy he’ll leave her alone.” Colby explained as we got into the SUV.

Molly, and Jax were already cuddled up in the third row. Colby rolled his eyes at them then took the seat behind his dad in the passenger seat, while I took a seat behind my dad.

“I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing that she asked you to be a buffer.” I admitted as we pulled away from the house.

“It’s no big deal. She’s a cool girl, and fun to hang out with.” He responded, but I caught a glimpse of hurt in his eyes as he said that, but I shrugged it off as it was none of my business.

“Yeah. She is a cool girl, and she is good to Chastity.”

“She is that. Chas needs that in her life after everything.”

“She does.”

“So you’re spending the weekend at the school with short stack?”
