Mated To An Extraterrestrial Alpha

Chapter Six

Roman's P.O.V

As we walk towards the common room I can feel my large hands flex at my sides as excitement and slight irritation fills my body so much that it seems to roll off of me and into the air making it thick with Alpha pheromones. We stop short and wait for the large doors to slide open. Once they do we step into the room; where my eyes land on Hobs and Johan having a loud discussion about who will win the next warrior battles back on our planet.

They then make their way over towards the corner where our thick large crimson red coach sits with Oscar already drinking and William sitting next to his side while quietly reading. Quinn leaves my side and makes his way over towards Oscar who is trying to horde all of the alcohol to himself. Quinn's hand stretches out, quickly disappears into the box, and comes out with a can clenched in his hand. After a few minutes of no one noticing my presence I loudly clear my throat. Their heads snap up towards the sound and their eyes grow wide as they realize they just completely ignored their Alpha's appearance. They all quietly murmur their apologies as I walk further into the room.

“I know you all are tired but we need to discuss what we have found and what needs to be done,” I speak out loud to gain all of their undivided attention.

After a short pause, I continue. “Usually we secure the cargo and then make our way back home not giving it a second thought. But since this is somewhat of an unorthodox find we need to go about this differently.”

“You're not thinking of opening the pods are you Alpha?” Quinn asks uneasiness seeping through his words.

A loud growl radiates from me at the very thought of the first being that was found not being alive and well. I can feel my breathing start to get heavy once more. My eyes dilate and turn pitch black; indicating that Luke is trying to push through and take over. The crew stiffens up as fear and shock filled their faces at the lack of control I am exhibiting in front of them. William starts to calmly walk towards me as growl after growl comes out of my mouth. His large hand stretches out and collides lightly with my black short-sleeved shirt-covered shoulder. He squeezes down hard as his mouth opens slightly.

“I have no objections of opening them if that is what you wish Alpha. I just ask it to be done in the sickbay just in case.” William calmly says as he looks into my eyes.

It takes me a minute of blinking before my eyes start to change back to normal and for my breathing to even out. The calming words and presence of William seem to have calmed Luke slightly into letting me take control again. I glance at William with a small smile upon my lips as my head nods slightly.

“Oh hell no! Who knows what those things are and what s**t they could do to us.” Oscar exclaims as he quickly stands up from the couch.

His already drunken body sways as he staggers back a bit. Within a split second, William's hand shoots up and rests on Oscar's back in an attempt to steady him.

“Just sit your ass down before you fall down and I have to carry you to the sick bay.” William snaps while rolling his eyes at Oscar's now pouting face.

I glance at William with a small smile upon my lips as my head nods slightly. He smiles warmly back at me as he pats my shoulder a few times before turning and making his way out of the room.
