Mateless

Eric

"Stop this mother I've had enough, I told you my mate will come when the time is right and as of now I just want to be focused and strong for my pack" I angrily stood up from the dining table and was about to leave when my mom voice brought me back.

"Stop right there young man, you may be a powerful alpha and a powerful werewolf but I am still your mother and you will respect me and not raise your voice at me" mom voice echo around the house.

Mom is a very jovial person but whenever she is angry, you see the warrior in her. The death of dad took a toll on her, she was very sweet and caring, calm and collected even when dad was angry she was the only one that could calm him down. Then dad died, she became obsess over controlling everything for instance my mate.

I ran my fingers in my hair in frustration and went back to sit down with my mom.

She stares at me with an irritated look before speaking up.

"You have to find your mate, she is your second half and you can't be a powerful wolf without your mate, you need your soulmate"

"But am already a powerful wolf, I control one of the biggest pack in the world and I don't need my mate to be strong"

"You need your mate and that is final, Eric Love is a beautiful thing and everyone should be able to experience love" mom should just give up already.

"What if I don't have a mate"the thought of that made me optimistic at least I would be free of all this mate bullshit.

Again another lecture from Mom about finding my mate, this has been a regular topic between mom and me ever since I turned eighteen years old nine years ago. Since when dad was killed by hunters mom was scared I will die alone because after dad I became angry and went on a rampage and killed the hunter who killed my dad and after everything I shut everyone out of my heart. The only people that could talk to me without shivering was my mom, my gamma and my best friend and beta Paul.

Mom has been tormenting me to find my mate even though she knows I don't want a mate. Mate makes you weak, I Know what losing my dad did to mom.

"Are you even listening" mom voice brought me back from my thought.

"Yes mom"

"You need love Eric, I just want you to be happy"

"I know mom"

"Does this means you will think about it"

I stood up and grabbed my jacket.

"I have to meet up with Philip to discuss about the monthly run coming up tonight so I have to go" I told Mom.

"When will you visit again"

"Whenever you want me to okay" I tried to leave but mom caught my hand before I could take my leave.

"You haven't answered my question"

"What question"

"Eric don't play with me" I have to answer her because mom won't give up.

"Okay fine, I will think about it, are you happy now"

"Yes am very happy. I love you so much Eric"

"Love you too Mom"

I hurriedly left mom's house then got into the car and driver drove off.
