Filed To Story: The Guardian Wolf and her Alpha Mate
“I still remember the boy who froze when he held his sister for the first time like she was some precious china” I laugh. “You two will be great uncles though, and dads when the time is right.”
“Thanks man” he says with a wide smile as he turns to his work again.
“Wow” Laurence mouths to me as I look at him in amazement.
“Oh goddess” I groan loudly.
“What?” They both ask quickly.
“I’ve just realised you’re going to teach all my pups the horrible tricks I taught you two” I groan rubbing my forehead dramatically.
With a loud laugh Axel nods enthusiastically, “that and more.”
“Brilliant” I mutter before smiling widely to show my humour.
“Ok I’m off for some food, I’ll be back after eating and you can show me what you’ve got. Laurence come join us, Nova will enjoy seeing you” I say as he quickly stands.
“See you soon boss, Beta” Axel says his attention back on his laptop.
Nova POV:
“So how have you gotten on?” Jax asks Axel once we have returned to the office following lunch.
“To be honest i don’t think you’re going to like it” he admits turning to face us.
Sighing Jax looks at me in frustration before motioning for Axel to continue speaking. “Well it seems to not be activated at the moment” he says slowly.
“So it’s one that can be activated and deactivated?” I check.
“Yes. Dr Norton didn’t disclose that information when asked but it’s because he wasn’t asked the right question. Once I caught on to suspecting it was the case I asked Elder Martin to check and he has since confirmed it” he says looking downcast. “I apologise for getting your hopes up.”
“You don’t need to apologise Axel” I say gently, “if he ever does activate it we can then monitor his movements, I assume they have them for emergencies. It’s more than what we had previously and for that we are grateful.”
“Thank you Luna” he says with a small smile. Yawning he stands up stretching, “I’m going to look into it more after the pack run.”
“That’s great Axel, thanks bro” Jax says as he takes a seat. With a smile to the both of us Axel quietly leaves the office leaving us to our thoughts.
Not even a minute later there is another knock on the door which Jax stands up to open.
“Alpha Axton” Jax says politely, “come in.”
“Hi, I didn’t meant to intrude I just want to extend my thanks for allowing us to stay for the night. Luca and Sophie are both ready downstairs to travel back to our pack” he says with a smile.
“That’s wonderful” I say softly. “I imagine Luca is excited.”
“Like a little pup” Axton says with an eye roll as Jax chuckles lightly.
“I’m sorry for not being around much, I’ve been making arrangements for the pack” Axton continues.
“It’s no problem, I’m sure you’re eager to get home now” Jax says as he leans back against his desk casually.
“Very” Axton agreed quickly.
“I’m not sure if you’ve heard but I have pushed Novas Luna Ceremony to be moved to Sunday, you are of course welcome as is Luca and Sophie who I believe already know” Jax mentions.
“I did hear you had arranged it, I appreciate the invite. If all is well in the pack and I feel it’s ok for me to leave for the day then I will be there, I will confirm in the morning if that isn’t too late?” He suggests.
“That’s fine Axton, I hope all is well back at The White Mountain Pack” I say with a smile.
“I’ll make sure to let them know about your ceremony, I think everyone will be excited for you” he tells me genuinely.
“We will come downstairs with you, I can’t let Luca and Sophie leave without saying goodbye” I laugh as I open the door. “Have you thought about how you will introduce Sophie to the pack?”
“Yes and I got Elder Martins view on it also” he starts, “I will say she was a rogue through no fault of her own and that once she has adjusted to pack life and feels comfortable she will share her story in time. I don’t wish to say more and endanger her as to be quite honest after the last few days I don’t know who to trust with the information.”
“I think that’s a good idea” Jax agrees as we walk down the stairs. “From what I have gathered during my visits Luca is a very well respected Beta of your pack, I think people will trust him and his mate.”
“Exactly” Axton smiles. “He’s been waiting a long time, everyone will be very happy.”
“Do you think anyone will mind the age gap?” I ask quietly knowing 8 years a bigger gap than most.
“Honestly..no. Sophie comes across as shy but once you have gotten to her true self you can see she is mature beyond her years. She has had to endure a very different life to most and it’s made her tough” Axton muses.
“Her confidence has grown since spending time here and being around Luca. I think she will be a brilliant beta female” I say.
“She will” Axton says confidently, “plus she can fight. She may seem delicate but she has thick skin, I think she will pleasantly surprise many.”
We walk outside the pack house to see Luca and Sophie finishing loading their car with my father shifting nervously beside them.
“Hey” I call waving to them all as we walk down the steps.
“Hey Nova” Luca grins before greeting Jax.
“Hi” Sophie says coming to stand in front of me as I look at her carefully. Sensing no nerves coming from her I grin happily making her brows furrow.
