Chapter 20

    Greetings


    Jax POV:


    Throughout breakfast I can’t help but nce at Nova as she chats animatedly with


    Flo and Theo. Hearing her soft giggle has me smiling into my food like a love struck


    puppy.


    “She has to be our mate” I hear Zeus tell me with conviction, “I hope so” I reply.


    Thinking back to how peaceful she looked when she fell asleep on mest night, her longshes


    fanning her face as she breathed lightly on me I grin at the fact she was so happy to spend the night


    with me. It felt right having her snuggled into my arms. and I slept peacefully through the night. Plus


    this mornings actions made the thought of her being my mate more convincing. Never before has a


    woman made me feel such pleasure, each sound she made spurred me on more and I loved the


    feeling of


    her soft toned b*dy moving against mine.


    “You look happy” Laurence links me as he sits down beside me.


    “Nova stayedst night” I tell him.


    His eyes met mine in shock, “seriously?”


    “Yeah”


    “I shrug, “after she fell asleep on me I couldn’t stop myself from asking her.”


    “And?” He probes looking excited.


    “Best night in a long time” I chuckle through the link.


    Speaking aloud to the table I gather their attention, “the other packs will be arriving within the next hour,


    I need to head to the office and make sure some paperwork is finalised. Laurence, Nova and Theo can


    youe join me in 30 mins or so. Florence can youe up with me now as we run through what I’d


    like doing in my absence?”


    “Yes Alpha” they chorus as their business mode switches on.


    Standing I nod bye before sneaking a wink at Nova.


    “I saw that” Florence sings to me as leave.


    “And?” I reply bluntly.


    C


    1/7


    Greetings


    “I like it” she replies giving me her approval.


    “Good” I smile knowing she thinks of Nova as her family.


    “Theo and I always hoped she would meet someone who loves her for her, she’s Incredibly special”


    she tells me with a slight warning in her tone.


    “That she is” I admire.


    After entering the office I run Florence through the training ns I’d like her to make whilst I’m out


    along with a few visits to new mums and pups I’d like her to make on my behalf. “Can you assure them


    I will be round tomorrow to offer my personal congrattions” I check.


    “Of course Alpha. I’ll make sure everything is done” she replies confidently.


    “Thanks Florence” I say just as a knock sounds on the door. “Come in” I call out and they all walk into


    the office.


    For the next 20 minutes I exin the cause of the meeting and say what I’d like to achieve from it.


    Hearing that Laurence and I had found no trace of a family with the Prince name ever residing in our


    pack made Novas eyebrows furrow as a thought passed through her head.


    “I assume they believe thisdy resides In the White Mountain Pack due to them only showing


    aggression towards them, however I can assure you I checked the history information myself and found


    no trace of a Prince family either” Nova informs


    everyone.


    “Do you think the pack would have been able to keep any information hidden from you?” Laurence


    asks her making me realise that thought had never crossed my mind.


    “No I did think that but not that I’m aware of. I basically did all the paperwork during my time as Luna so


    I had ess to everything. I could check with Luca but I can’t think of a reason for them doing so” she


    answers him.


    “Worth asking” he shrugs looking a bit lost.


    “Let’s head down, I’ve just been told Alpha Brent has arrived at the gates, he’ll be here shortly” I say


    standing up and gesturing for everyone to head downstairs. “Florence if there are any issues then link


    me, I’ll stay in range” I tell her.


    O


    27


    Greetings


    Walking down Nova falls in step beside me, “how are you feeling about seeing Axton


    again?” I ask quietly for her ears only.


    “To be honest I’m not putting much thought towards it, it hurt yes we were a chosen mate pairing where


    we grew to love each other. He was kind, supportive and good to me, but unfortunately his recent


    actions quickly erased all that. All I hope is that he continues putting his pack first” she says looking up,


    “plus I love it here. The pack members are so lovely and supportive, I feel like I belong here I can’t


    exin it. Plus there is you..”


    “Me?” I ask cheekily distracting her as I open the front door seeing the others has disappeared ahead.


    “Yes..” she drawls not borating.


    “I’d love to hear more” I wink as she dips under my arm and outside allowing me


    great view of her behind in her tight navy summer dress. Following her I see she has


    spun so is now stood facing me.


    “You’ve been understanding, patient and I’ve never met someone like you before, plus you’re pretty


    good at making me feel good” she says smiling at me widely hiding her meaning from any potential


    ears that are listening, making me dip my head and whisper in her ear, “you’re blushing.”


    Hearing her melodic giggle I lift my head proud that I’ve aplished making her


    smile.


    “Nova” I hear a voice shout from a car making us turn around.


    Seeing Luca leaning on the car waving enthusiastically at her I see her smile as she runs down the


    steps to give him a big hug.


    “Hey” she exims happily, “I’ve missed you.”


    “So have 1” he says putting her on the ground, “it’s not the same


    it you.”


    Looking to my right I see Laurence speaking to Alpha Brent so I follow Nova down the steps until I’m in


    front of them both, “good morning alpha Jax” he says reaching his


    hand out for me to shake.


    “Good morning Beta, how was your journey?” I ask politely.


    3/7


    Greetings


    “Let’s not go there he grimaces before the other door of the car open and Alpha


    Axtonsrge frame steps out followed by his new Luna Rose and a warrior.


    Peering at Nova out the corner of my eye I see no hint of hurt or upset cross her features, instead they


    stay nice and rxed as she continues chatting to her brother.


    “Good morning Alpha Jax” Axton says as he shakes my hand gazing at me


    questioningly.


    “Good morning Alpha, how are you today?” I ask as his Luna walks around and slips in his arms


    looking at the pack house behind me in awe and with a hint of greed.


    “This is gorgeous” his Luna interrupts making Axtons mouth form a straight line of


    disapproval.


    Chuckling slightly as I’m aware of how much grander my territory ispared to the White Mountain


    Packs own, “thank you Luna Rose. I appreciate hearing that.”


    Just then Nova and Luca join us with Nova standing to my left. As Axtons gazends on her I’m


    surprised to see the longing still lingering in his eyes as he takes her in.


    “Good morning Nova” his deep voice says. From N?velDrama.Org.


    “Good morning Alpha Axton, Luna Rose” she says politely bowing her head, “I trust you had a safe


    journey?”


    “No need with the formalities Nova, I will always be Axton to you” he says quietly.


    Laughing lightly as she shakes her head, “oh I couldn’t, you’re a visiting Alpha it’s only


    polite.”


    Turning her attention to Rose she lovely today Luna” shepliments.


    s the cold re directed at her, “you look


    “Thank you, the dress is thetest Ralph Lauren release, gorgeous isn’t it?” Her nasally voice replies. I


    look at her dress and have to hide a scoff behind a well timed cough, her dress couldn’t be any tighter


    showing off her assets but not in an attractive way. For an expensive dress she somehow managed to


    make it look cheap.


    “It certainly is” Nova replies as her eyes sh to Axtons, “I didn’t realise the pack was splurging on such


    luxury.”


    With that Roses face drains of colour as Axton shakes his head, “she shouldn’t have


    Greetings


    been” he growled.


    “Ah..” Nova replies simply having made her point.


    Turning to me her eyes light up as I catch her gaze, “well yed” I link her.


    “Let me greet Alpha Brent then we can begin heading towards the meeting ce, I would suggest


    changing to wolf form as


    running would be much quicker” I mention


    so they’re aware.


    “Of course” Axton replies.


    Holding my arm out for Nova I gesture my head towards Laurence and Brent, e say hello, he


    wanted to speak to you previously but obviously past events stopped that from happening” I exin


    casually.


    Her soft hand reaches out to wrap round my arm as I bring her in close to my side, “thank you Alpha”


    she says with a slight flirtatious ring in her voice gazing into my


    eyes.


    “You calling me Alpha does certain things to me that would be highly inappropriate right now” I growl


    yfully through the link making her let out a cute snort ofughter.


    “Shush” she exims out loud hitting my chest slightly as a warning.


    As we reach Alpha Brent I don’t move my arm, instead I hold out my other for a


    handshake as I greet him.


    “Good morning Alpha Brent, how are you?” I ask.


    “I’m grand mate, Laurence here has been filling me in on the meeting ns. I’ve got to say you’ve got it


    all covered” he admires.


    “Thank you” I acknowledge, “I brought Nova over as I’m aware you wanted to speak to


    her before”


    Seeing his eyes take in our closeness I swear I see a small smile grace his lips before


    he nods politely at her, “good morning Nova, I trust you’re being taken care of well?”


    “Very much so thank you Alpha” she replies a faint tinge of colour reaching her


    cheeks.

    Greetings


    “I just wanted to see how you are dear after ourst meeting. I have to say your


    strength was admirable and you are a born leader” he says graciously.


    “You’re too kind Alpha” she waves off, “but I’m doing very well. The whole pack has been wonderful at


    epting Alice and myself.”


    “Im d to hear that young one” he says gently, “you look happy” he notes knowingly


    as they share a smile.


    “Hi Alpha, sorry to interrupt, I just wanted to check everyone was ready to go?” Theo


    asks as he heads over hugging Nova as he did.


    “Theo?!” I hear a voice exim from behind us.


    Hearing his name Theo spins to spot Luca, “Luca, man how are you?” He asks a wide


    smile on his face.


    “Hmmph” Luca shrugs off the question, “you’re back with Nova. That’s brilliant” he


    exims.


    Theo wraps his arm around Nova bringing him into his side, “yes we’ve been reunited” he says softly


    looking down at her with love.


    “Moving on?” Luna Rosements as she sneers at Nova, looking at her gazing at


    Theo I see her take in his muscr form as a hint of want appears in her eyes.


    With that Nova, Theo and Luca burst out in a fit of giggles, “you’ve misunderstood


    Luna, Nova here is my sister” Theo informs her proudly.


    “Brother?” Axton interjects as he shakes off Roses tightening grip.


    “The two young children I helped for a couple of years when I was 17, they became


    fine warriors and are now Alpha Jaxs Gam mas” Nova says looking up, “I had no idea


    they would be here, it was a lovely surprise. I’ve missed them terribly as you’re aware Alpha Axton.”


    Realisation dawns on his face as the information links to what he’s been told


    previously. “That’s great to here” he replies tly.


    “Plus Theo here is Alice’s mate” Nova adds on grinning at Theo as she reaches up to ruffle his hair


    yfully.


    “You are the only one who gets away with that” Theo growls.


    6/7


    Greetings


    “I know” sheughs, “I’ll never stop.”


    Heughs shaking his head at her, e on then everyone, let’s go run” he says letting me lead us


    towards the forest edge.
