Breakfast
Nova POV:
I woke up early with my mind racing at the events of yesterday. For the past 3 years ! had worked hard
at being the Luna people needed me to be, I dedicated my time to the White Mountain Pack and
strengthening them so they would be stable and successful when my time to leave them would be.
Now I had a new path and this one in only 2 weeks had been more dramatic than anything I can
remember. Going from being part of a loving family to finding out about my birth parents and my
grandparents was a shock to the system. Not knowing what the future held was
making me wary and nervous, and I needed to control that.
“Maybe to control your emotions you need to think about yourself for once” Kia suggested to me
pausing my racing mind.
“How do you mean Ki?” I ask.
“There is obviously a much larger play in this than we ever imagined, with our grandparents being
hunters, our biological mum being the daughter of them was
something we didn’t imagine. Finding out that they killed our parents is a hard find. But to help others
we need to get to the bottom of this and find out why they haven’t been stopped yet, what is there drive
behind continuing to chase us? To protect those we care about we need to think for ourselves and get
to the bottom of our
family drama.” Kia comments.
“True..”I reply pondering.
“You okay?” I heard Jax murmur in my ear as his arms wrap round my waist bringing.
me close.
“Just thinking” I reply quietly.
“Care to explain?” He asks.
“Ki thinks we need to delve into our family history a bit more and to get to the bottom of why my
grandparents are chasing me by all accounts. To protect those we love we must otherwise people will
continue to get hurt” I let him know.
Hearing that he turns me round and looks into my eyes steadily, “you’re right” he

agrees.
“Really?” I ask surprised. Hearing that he c***s his eyebrow and looks at me questioningly, “I thought
you’d ask me to be safe and to wait till we know more.”
“Well I think it would be beneficial to wait yes, I do know a way to bring your grandmother out of her
coma..luckily our pack has some of the best doctors available. Plus there is the fact that in no certain
way would I want you to do this without me by your side” he says calmly.
“So gain information first then decide what we do?” I check.
With that he nods his head.
“Together?” I ask quietly.

“Always” he promises dropping his lips to mine. After a moment we deepen our k*ss. naturally as our
bodies press close together. Moaning into his mouth makes him lift me up so I can wrap my legs
around his waist. As he nibbles on my bottom lip I gasp as the heat pools below, “f ucckkk” I moan as I
grind myself over his hard shaft through his trousers.
“You’re stunning” he whispers against my lips as he pushes me against the wall.
Taking his lips once again in mine our mouths move together passionately as we
pour our emotions into our k*ss. After a moment he pulls away breathing heavy, his
eyes dark with lust.
“If we continue I won’t be able to stop, and as much as I want to f**k you within an
inch of my life I will not be doing that here” he groans.
Hearing those words has my heart racing as excitement builds in me, “do we have to
wait till my birthday?” I ask biting my lip.
Seeing his eyes focus on my plump lips following my actions he takes a moment to
respond, “I can’t wait” he mumbles as he bucks his hips into mine making me moan at
the friction it causes.
“Good” I whisper as I lean down and give him a gentle k*ss.
“But you’re right, getting carried away here is not a good idea” I chuckle pulling away as he lowers me
to the floor gently before stepping back and running a hand through his hair in frustration. I look down
and can’t stop a small giggle escaping me as I see

He quirks his lips before shaking his head, “don’t..around you I loose all sense of control.”
Looking down at his bulge he groans before muttering “we should really go breakfast.”

Nodding I hold my hand out but he shakes his hand making me frown at him slightly, “just give me a
minute love, I don’t think you realise the effect you’re having on me.”
Understanding I nod and offer him a small smile before asking, “what do you think will have come of

flash to mine before he replies “if she was my mate I’d be devastated, she’s honestly a nut job. Who
drugs their mate to sleep with them?”
“Hmm it’s weird. She seems very insecure to me” I shrug.
He chuckles softly, “well you don’t have anything to worry about with that spell, she
seems to have cured my problem” he gestures down to his trousers making me
giggle.
“You wouldn’t be effected anyway Jax, being our mate mean no one else can control
you wether it be via a spell or a drug, nothing would work” Kia suddenly links making
us both jump.

“Really?!” He exclaims amazed.
“Wait but he’s not officially my mate because it’s not been my birthday yet? How can we protect him
now?” I ask bewildered.
“We have recognised him as our mate Nova, on our birthday it will be stronger the
mate pull, the sparks, our connection..everything. But can you not tell how connected
we are to him already compared to a week ago?” She asks keeping the link open so
Jax can hear.
Looking at him with widened eyes I grin as I realise I officially have my mate beside
me. “You’re protecting me..” he says with awe.
“With our life we would” Kia replies, hearing that my eyes being to well up as
emotions surge through me.

Breakfast
“What’s wrong?” He asks gently wiping away a few tears that have escaped.
“I’m just amazed that’s all, I have a mate! And to hear Kia announce that solidifies how real this is, with
a Guardian Wolf a mateship is so much more. It’s our life…if you died we would also die” I tell him.
“That’s why you are able to protect me..” he realises.
“Yes” I murmur.
“Then I am one incredibly lucky man” he says giving me a lingering k*ss on the forehead. “Come, I
can’t let my mate go hungry” he says playfully leading me towards the door.
He continues to make me giggle as we enter the dining room when silence suddenly falls across the
room as I look around at my old pack mates faces.
“Hi” I say gently waving to everyone as they stare at Jax and I’s joined hands.
It’s silent for a minute before a large round of applause sounds up as people get to their feet cheering
and shouting their happiness for me.
Seeing a little flash run up and grasp my legs I look down into Delilah’s large eyes, “oh my gorgeous
girl, I’ve missed you” i exclaim picking her up and holding her close. “Have you been looking after the
big softy over there?” I whisper not too quietly.
“I heard that” Luca calls out amused as Delilah’s little b*dy shakes with laughter.
Her big eyes turn to Jax as she studied him, “are you Luna Novas mate?” She suddenly asks.
With that his eyes soften in amusement before she continues, “you have to look after Luna Nova, she’s
the best wolf we know” she says fiercely as I lower her to the floor. Jax drops to her level before holding
her hand, “I promise to look after Luna Nova forever, she’s an amazing woman” he assures her making
me eyes water again. With that her little face breaks into a big smile before she gives him a k*ss on the
cheek.
“You are adorable” he says ruffling her hair as he looks at her appreciatively before she runs off
shouting about pancakes.

“You loved here weren’t you?” He asks as we walk towards Luca where I smiled at everyone on the
way.

“Yeah. I was” I say gently trying to keep the sadness from my tone.
“You still are” he comforts me.
“Morning you two” Lucas cheerful tone says as we take a seat beside him.
“Someone’s chirpy” I comment.
“Well a certain so called Luna got put in her d amn place” he shrugs with a smile quirking his lips.
Chucking I shake my head as a plate of food gets put in-front of Jax and myself.
“Thank you so much, I could have got that” I say kindly to one of the warriors.
“It was my honour Luna Nova, it’s great to see you back here” he says before bowing his head and
walking back to his seat.
“You will always be seen as a Luna to them” Luca simply says as I turn to him in
shock.
Everyb*dy hushes once again and I turn to see Axtons broad figure walking towards
US.
“Good morning Nova, Alpha Jax” he says reaching out to shake his hand.
“Good morning Alpha, how are you?” I ask softly sensing the conflicting emotions.
within him.
“Honestly?” He asks.
“You know I always appreciate honesty” I say calmly.
“Conflicted” he admits before tapping his knee as he does when he’s got a lot on his
mind. “She is my mate but the way she has acted makes me ashamed and
embarrassed. She has drugged me from within the first two hours of meeting
me..she didn’t even give me the chance. I went to speak to her last night” he
admitted.
“Would you like to say more?” I ask not pushing the subject.
With a deep sigh he looks across at me with regret in his eyes, “I’m ashamed of
myself Nova. You did everything and more for this pack and myself when you were Luna, and the way i
treated you was despicable. I thought I had been weak

succumbing to the bond but last night she admitted to something she did when I pulled back on her.
After continuing to k*ss in the lounge I said I needed to do right by you she then offered me a drink and
the chance to get to know one another, but she drugged me. We have never had s*x when I haven’t
been drugged” he admits quietly with hurt lacing his voice.
With that I feel my eyes soften at him, “I’ve forgiven you you know Axton” I say his name to show I’m
speaking to him as his ex mate and not as another pack member.
“You have been wronged just as much as I by her I would say. But I have to ask as what’s done is
done, what are you going to do moving forwards?”
With that he gulps before looking away stressed, “I’ve spoken to the council of the elders. They’re
coming to hold a Luna trial where she will be deemed worthy or not.”
“I sense a but” I say softly.
“I don’t love her Nova. I know what love feels like and this isn’t it. I cannot be her mate
after what she did to me, she essentially forced the marking and has hurt this pack in
the time she has been here. Our finances have taken a hit, it’s only thanks to you!

do an unreasonable amount of work since you left. She stopped me from being the
Alpha this pack deserves, I took an oath when I was sworn in. I don’t intend to
continue breaking it.” He says solemnly.
“You’re going to break the bond?” I gasp.
“Yes” he nods, “I have to. If she had given me the chance to begin with then I could
have followed the bonds connection and we could have finished our agreement. But
she ruined all chances of that. I hope to be granted a second chance mate but that is
up to the Goddess.”
After a minute of looking at him I see Jax straighten next to me before he speaks, “I
hope you don’t mind my opinion but I think you are doing the right thing. The way you
have dealt with what she has done has been admirable, by contacting the Elders it shows your sincerity Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

restraint on your behalf..I am very grateful
for your strength.”
Axton looks at Jax as relief shows in his eyes, “thank you Alpha. I am truly happy for

you both, I still love you Nova but I know it is not my place to have any type of hold over you after
what’s happened. It may take some time for me to adjust to seeing someone else make you happy but
I want you both to know I support it.”
I stand up and walk round to his side as he stands up. “Thank you” I whisper as I pull him into my arms,
feeling his tighten around me I look at Jax where I see understanding in his eyes. After a minute we
step back from one another as I see his eyes slightly wet from my actions, us both knowing it was a
goodbye hug.
Clearing his throat he sits back down before speaking, “if you ever need my support you know where I
am” he assures us both.
“And it goes without saying but should you need us during Roses trials you don’t need to ask, we will
be there” Jax assures him.
