Filed To Story: The Guardian Wolf and her Alpha Mate
“It has” I agree. “But everybody who has arrived seems prepared.” As each pack had arrived Nova and I had taken the time to introduce ourselves to the warriors which had helped them see who we are and what kind of leaders we were.
“Sorry I’m here now” I hear Nova say from behind me bringing me out of my thoughts. Looking over her I see the tiredness creeping into her eyes as they lack a little bit of their usual life that shines bright.
“How you holding up?” I ask gently kissing her temple as she slumps on me
With a grimace she purses her lips before answering, “I have a massive headache and I’m feeling all sorts of emotions. It’s actually quite overwhelming” she sighs. “I’m finding it hard to regulate which is unlike me. It helps when Im in your company, kind of dulls the feeling.”
“Share it with me” I say quietly, “I know you keep that side of the bond closed off a lot of the time so I don’t have to deal with your emotions but I want to Nova. We can share in this.”
“I know love, but I can deal with it” she says with a small smile.
“Lower it Nova, at least for now please” I ask desperately wanting to help her as she nods reluctantly. Seeing her take a breath I rub her shoulders soothingly as she slowly lowers the barrier leaving me to feel what she does.
Suddenly it feels like I’m being hit by a lorry as I feel wave after wave of different emotion, ranging from worry to excitement, anger to happiness and guilt to love.
Staggering back I claw at my chest as I gasp for breath from the onslaught of emotions, reaching for the bench I haunch over as I spot Nova worryingly rush to come by my side.
Feeling her put his barrier back up I am able to control my breathing again as I stand upright slowly.
“What the hell was that?” l ask her quietly
“I’s a lot isn’t it” she mumbles in embarrassment.
“Nova… that’s too much. How the hell are you still standing?
“I whisper yell aware of others nearby who have thrown my some worried glances
“I don’t know” she whispers. “It wasn’t this bad this morning I swear, it’s gotten worse as the days gone on.”
“It’s gotten worse?” I ask her slowly. “But why?”
“I think perhaps seeing everyone arrive has made it all far more real than it was before” she says quietly as I step forward and pull her in close.
“Is ki ok?” I ask her sensing her strength has dimmed slightly.
“She hasn’t spoken to me all afternoon, she’s in pain” Nova says biting her lip to avoid crying.
“I don’t think that’s normal Nova” I say with concern as she looks at me worriedly. “Perhaps your father can help you control it all?”
“I hope so” she whispers as she massages her temples lightly.
Hearing rustling growing louder I straighten in preparation for Kingsleys arrival. “They’re here love” I say quietly as Nova simply groans in response.
“Alpha Jax” I hear Kingsley say as he steps from the tree line into my line of sight
“Kingsley” I smile in relief as he grasps my hand in a firm shake Seeing others slowly make their way out of the tree line I smile warmly aware that they are probably feeling nervous themselves. After they’ve all emerged and are standing in a large group behind him I look around before addressing them.
“Hello everybody, l’m Alpha Jax and this is Luna Nova, you’ve all probably heard about her from your King” I say referencing Kingsley with a slight smile in his direction. “I’d like to personally thank you for coming to our aid and helping us. I’ve heard good things from Kingsley here and I’m looking forward to seeing you all in action. If there’s anything you need just ask for us or for Omega Brea. I know you’re camping but meal times and training rotas will be provided shortly, l’ve got my Gamma Theo distributing them and he will bring them once he’s finished his training session.”
With that everybody utters their greetings and thanks me for the kind words before melting into the forest to set up
camp.
“f**K” Nova moans loudly before sinking to the ground as I rush to her side.
“Nova..nova” I shout shaking her slightly as her eyes flutter.
“What’s happening?” Kingsley shouts as he rushes to his daughter’s side.
“She’s struggling with the intensity of her emotions, it’s overwhelming her. What did you do to help it?” l ask frantically
“I never experienced it to this extent” he frowns. “Yes everything was heightened but I controlled it just fine, Drake took most of it whenever we were in a highly emotional situation. Is Kia not doing that?”
“Yes she is but she’s not spoken to Nova all afternoon, it’s too much for them” I growl as I kiss Novas forehead.
“These aren’t her emotions” we hear a voice say from behind us as we turn to see Esmerelda and Kara stood watching.
“What?” I snap.
“You heard me Alpha” Esmerelda says with a slight smile.”
She is feeling the emotions of everyone around her.”
“She is?” Kingsley asks shocked. “Why has she never said this before?”
“She did say her emotions were heightened but maybe she believes that’s how it’s always been?” I say in confusion.”
She would have said if she knew it was other peoples emotions she was feeling.”
“She can’t have known” Kara says as she kneels beside us.
“Nova love can you hear me?” I ask her gently as she writhes on the floor, her body convulsing as she tries to control her pain subconsciously.
With no response I meet Kara’s gaze which is full of concern. “If you are happy for me to try Alpha Jax I believe I can help her control this for now?” Kara asks gently.
