Mates

My name is Anna Latham
no
that isn't right
my name is
Anna Cornick
sorry,
I'm a newlywed
I'm not used to
carrying his name.

After all my old pack put
me through
I never thought
that I would marry ever.
I swore men off,
until I met him,
met the man that
my wolf craved.
The man that makes me
feel good about myself
for once.

He understands what
I am
and doesn't try to put me under
his heel
no, he holds me
at his side.
His strong arms
protect me
his love
nurtures me.

I'm not used to
dominant wolves
who accept me
for what I am
an Omega wolf.
Understand
what makes me unique
and are willing to
teach me
how to use that uniqueness
to better my pack,
and myself.

His name strikes fear
in every wolf
except me.
To me
he is my mate
my lover and protector.
With him I can be raw
vulnerable
and feel safe that he
will protect me
from those that mean me harm.

His name is Charles Cornick
he is the Marrok's son
and enforcer…
that's just fancy talk for
an executioner.
He hates it,
I hate it,
but he doesn't dare
say anything
to his father
It isn't worth
fighting with
his "Da" over or so
he thinks
I think otherwise.

At the end of the week
end of his assignment
he comes home
and I hold him
I take care of him,
with a hot meal
and my love
and when my past
plagues my nightmares
he is there
to support me
with his love
and the promise
of safety
I find
in his touch.
