Filed To Story: The Guardian Wolf and her Alpha Mate
“Really?” I ask sadly.
“I saw him hit her once” she admits. “I was 6 at the time and they told me it was a game, as I grew up I knew it to be more but I never saw it happen again so I thought it was a one time thing. I don’t think he was physical again..but I think he was very controlling.”
“That’s really sad” I comment as she nods. “Theo said the Doctor checked her over and their bond appeared to be weak. It’s as if she was already accepting of the fact the bond would break, both her and her wolf.”
“My mum is a strong woman, fiercely protective and incredibly intelligent. She couldn’t reach her full potential as Luna and I know she feels sad about that” Mila says. “But that’s not her fault, and she did an amazing job as it was. But I know she would have done many things differently to my father.”
“Maybe this is for the best then” I say quietly.
“I think it definitely is” she agrees. “Let’s go for a massage shall we..I’ve been looking forward to it all day.”
Jumping up I link my arm with her out stretched one and we make our way upstairs to Jax and mines suite. Opening the door my eyes widen in excitement when I see the massage stations set up and makeup artists busy in the corner with the vanity.
“Oh my goddess I’m so ready for this” I giggle as I hug Alice and Naomi.
“Relax those worn out muscles of yours” Naomi says with a gleam in her eyes.
“Dirty woman” I chuckle as she tilts her head back laughing loudly.
“I’m lost” Alice says looking between us.
“She finds it appropriate to comment on her Alphas sex drive” I say. Seeing Alice’s eyes widen in interest I hold my hand up, “nope..not even going there Alice.”
Her mouth snaps shut and she pouts at me, “I’d tell you about Theo.”
“And as I’ve told you before, I don’t want to know about my brothers shenanigans” I laugh.
“I’ll second that” Mila laughs from where she’s getting some drinks ready, “I heard enough from the twins growing up, let’s not throw Jax in the equation.”
“Thank you” I exclaim with relief as we all chuckle between ourselves.
“A glass of wine for us” Mila says handing me a glass, “and some sweet mocktail for you pregnant ladies” she adds on with a sad face.
Clinking out glasses we toasts to today and then lie down ready for a massage, “if I fall asleep don’t judge me” I hear Alice mumble already sounding tired.
“Wouldn’t dream of it” I chuckle aware of how cranky she can be. “Time to relax ladies” I cheer quietly.
Jax POV:
After greeting the first guests that have arrived I quickly shoot up to my office to give my uncle Henry a call. “Laurence where did dad go?” I link him quickly.
“He’s at the lake house, got 4 wolves watching and monitoring his movements as didn’t know what he would do. Seems he is just resting at the moment” he links me back immediately.
“Can’t believe that happened” I link him back.
“I’m kind of not surprised” he admits through the link making me pause.
“You’re not?” I ask in surprise.
“She was pretty angry after their altercation the other day. Her mate has lied to her and hurt her pups amongst other things. I don’t like to say it but I always felt like he held your mum back a bit” he links me quietly.
“Yeah it was always father’s way or no way at all” I reply back with a sigh. “Ok I’m going to call Henry now, although he’s probably on his way here already.”
“Ok boss, just let me know if you need me to do anything else” he replies. “I’ll keep handling the guests for now.”
“Thanks mate” I reply quickly as I slump down in my office chair and retrieve my phone from the drawer. Finding my uncles mobile number I call him whilst rubbing my forehead to try and release the tension I feel.
“Jax my boy, checking where I am?” My uncles cheery voice says through the phone.
“Hey Henry” I say and I hear his breath immediately hitch when he hears my tone.
“Whats up? Is it Nova? Is she ok?” He asks his words tumbling out.
“Yeah yeah, Novas fine. Getting a massage as we speak curtesy of moi” I reply with a chuckle. “Unfortunately this is about something else.”
“Oh, what’s up?” He asks curiously.
“Ma rejected father” I say bluntly as he stays quiet on the other end for a moment.
“Well shit” he finally says as I stand up to walk to the window. Watching the pack members hurry around making everything look beautiful for the ceremony I nearly forget I’m on the phone.
“What brought that on?” He asks when I don’t say anything.
“Ah man I don’t even know where to start. His admittance of the way he treated us growing up, the methods he and his beta used, the fact he arranged with the council for me to marry Genevieve and his that from me. Or maybe it was the fact he invited Genevieve to the Luna Ceremony today for her to challenge Nova for the Luna position. That’s not mentioning the doubt he has been trying to install in pack members about my brothers capability and my own” I rant.
“Fuck sake David” he growls, “I swear he never learns.”
“Yes well it’s done now, he accepted the rejection because he knew mum had had enough” I say.
“I think your mum had enough a while ago” Henry admits.
“Huh?” I ask confused.
“She gave him an ultimatum a few years ago, either step back and let you run the Midnight Sky Pack and be successful in your own right or keep doubting his pups and continue to cause tension in the family and end up losing her” he says quietly.
