An Alpha’s Pride

Daniel’s head tilted. “You’re not afraid of me, are you?”

“Let’s just say that I appreciate the muscle you’re able to throw around without even trying, but no, I’m not afraid of you. Now, if you had asked me that a month ago, the answer would not have been the same, but I think I’ve learned a little more about you since then.”

Daniel suddenly frowned. “I’m sorry about Ben.”

“I am, too, baby. You never should have been put in a position where you had to kill to defend me.” Carlton kissed the side of Daniel’s head. “I guess I never realized how much prejudice Ben had against vampires.”

“There’s going to be a lot of that, you know. Ben isn’t the only one with prejudices against vampires and wolf shifters being together.”

“Then we’ll just need to be strong enough to show them the errors of their ways. And that means I need the man that chained me to his bed and ripped out the throat of my beta.” Daniel stiffened, as Carlton knew he would. He grabbed Carlton’s chin and tilted his head back. “I need you to stop hiding and be the man I know you are deep down inside.”

“What if you don’t like the man I am deep down inside?”

“Then I imagine we’ll argue a lot, but I hear makeup sex is the bomb.”

Daniel sat up straight and swung his legs over Carlton’s. “I’m serious, Carlton. What if we’re not compatible? I’m an electus.

You’re an alpha. We’re both used to being in charge.”

“Daniel, we’re never going to be happy together if you continue to pretend to be something you’re not.”

“You seem to like it,” Daniel snapped, his face darkening.

Carlton couldn’t help but smile. It was the first sign of resistance he had seen in Daniel in ages. “Baby, I love you, and yes, I like it when you submit to me. It’s sexier than hell to see you on your knees before me. But I also like it when you make me submit. That’s called 84

give and take, compromise. I think we’re two rather intelligent people. I think we can handle it.”

“I don’t know, Carlton. What if—”

Carlton pressed his finger over Daniel’s mouth. “No ‘what ifs,’

Daniel. I think fate gave us to each other because we’re exactly what the other one needs.”

“I’m not sure that makes sense, Carlton.”

“We’re both leaders in our own right. We both hold positions of power and strength where any sign of weakness could not only get us killed but get our people killed. With me so far?”

Daniel nodded.

“Okay, what people fail to realize is that underneath all of that power and strength is a man, one with wants and needs just like anyone else. Someone like Rowan wouldn’t do for either of us. We both need someone just as powerful as we are to stand at our sides.”

“I thought you were all fired up about mating Rowan. That is how we met, remember?”

“Rowan is unique.”

“I know,” Daniel grumbled. “I’ve experienced his uniqueness firsthand.
