Chapter 66 - Jake
Last Updated:
2023-10-15 18:05:46Jaxx is snarling in my mind at the things Uncle Jacob is saying. But he isn’t wrong. The things he says make perfect sense. If he was saying it to someone else, I would be agreeing with him and I know I would. I would be telling them the same thing. So why, when it is me, is it so hard to agree with?
At least Jaxx is back. He had been silent since we had been walking back from the forest earlier. Not willing to communicate with me in anyway. But now, the things Uncle Jacob has said seem to have flared him up enough to wake him, irritated him enough to disturb him, proving he is never fully gone, just hiding. A little like a ghost. A spirit wolf. There when he wants to be. Which, if anything, only irritates me. I needed him earlier and he wasn't there for me.
“Jake, she did not need to attack Ruby. She could have spoken to her. Spoken to you. There are ways to deal with it. Not attacking. Not aggressively. No violence. This girl was

I had escaped to my house, needing the space, having told Lilah everything I could remember for her to pass on to Knox, but I just needed to be on my own. I needed to be away from everyone. But I guess Lilah decided otherwise because no sooner was I home than my sister and my cousin arrived, declaring they were here for me, and that they would not be leaving me. Evidently, I needed looking after in their minds. In my own mind, I needed to be on my own. Why did they not see it the same way? I am not a fucking child. And I truly do not appreciate being treated like one! Esme is following me around like she is scared she is going to lose me. Where she thinks I will vanish to in my own home I have no clue. It is not like I have been training in magic tricks in my spare time. I realise it may have scared them to know that Rose had planned to take my life, but I do not think I can cope with having my sister clinging onto me like a leech! I like my personal space, and right about now Es

The five of us are meeting outside of our homes, the guys saying goodbye to their mates. Lots of sad faces as they leave their mates and their children. Gabe is definitely unsure about leaving Esme, which seems unlike him, he is normally fine going away, usually quite enthusiastic about it actually, so something is going on with him. I will have to ask if he is ok. I wonder if he is a little shaken by all of the stuff that happened with Ruby?I feel sick with nerves at the prospect of travelling over to Rose’s pack, to tell them what has happened. But Knox has informed them we were coming, or their Alpha at the least. He had briefly spoken to their Alpha on a number of occasions, from what I could gather. Surely they had to see that we were terrible people. Or I was. I was the cause of all of this.Manny had his warrior head on. I could see that a mile away, he had given his boys a hug and was saying goodbye to Lola. He was acting like he was going off to battle. I am hoping that it i

The flight was straight forward. Long and boring, as many long-haul flights generally are. We did our best to try to sleep, but it was not for finding me. My mind was too focused on what awaited us. Unsuprisingly really, when we would be going to break the news to a family that their daughter had gone. When they were completely unaware too. Unaware that she had even travelled over to us.Thankfully, the Alpha of the pack had been very understanding when I had spoken to him. He had said Rose was known for being very argumentative, and that he couldn’t even say he was shocked she had gone to attack another she-wolf, but he fully understands why she was attacked in defense. Any pack member would do that to defend another member of the pack being attacked unawares. He was not holding our pack accountable for it. He saw it as being in defense,and as an unprovoked attack, which is what we said it was. Rose should never have gone to attack Ruby.We just need her family to see the situation t

We are sitting in a large car driving to Autumn Moon Pack, where Rose was from, having already dropped our cases off at the hotel we had booked. We had chosen to book a hotel away from the pack, deciding it would be for the best to do that in case there was any hostility from her family once we told them the news. I say in case of hostility, of course there would be hostility. At the end of the day, we had killed a pack member, or I had. We were literally coming to tell them that. Though Knox did say that the Alpha of the pack had offered us accommodation whilst there, which I find quite bizarre. Especially considering Knox had since told me that the Alpha was fully aware of the whole situation. Yet he was still fine enough to allow us into his pack. It made little sense to me,The scenery we drive through is breathtaking. Hills in almost every direction we look. Trees everywhere. I can see why Rose had said the area was beautiful. Though I still have to say I think where we

We pull up outside the Autumn Moon Pack packhouse. I have to say I feel a slight apprehension about this. Yes, I have already spoken to the Alpha, John Johnson, and he seemed quite a reasonable man, so I am hopeful he stays that way when we come to speak about this in full. I do not want any issues while here. Not without full back up. Yes, we have a small warrior back up, but most of our other warriors, and then other allies in other packs are back closer to home. We would be waiting a hell of a long time for back up!We would go in as a group. There was Jake, myself, Dan, Gabe and Manny, plus Lola and Esme’s brothers, Luis and Diego were with us, who had become additional friends within our group because of the connections to their sisters. But they were here with us for the fact they were warriors like Gabe and Manny and we needed their back up just in case of trouble, which I was truly hoping did not happen! I had planned this the best I could without turning up loo

My brain replays what he has just said. Yes, I want to get this over with. He isn’t wrong. Why the hell else does he think I am even here? I am here to do the right thing and get this done. So I can then find a way to work on the gut wrenching, soul-destroying shit going on within my mind, in my shattered remnants of my heart, and find a way to cope with it so I can then somehow find a way to continue living my life. Albeit alone now. And hopefully, find some semblance of happiness if possible.So yes, I am here to get this over and done with. He is most definitely not wrong. But what the hell does having a proper chat mean? That seems to imply to me that he hasn’t got us here to talk about Rose dying? That he potentially isn’t bothered by Rose dying? This seems so wrong. A pack member has died, he has been called to be notified of that. Told that an Alpha of the pack in which she died will be travelling over to notify her family formally, and he is fine wit

I am sitting listening to the Alpha and he is happy with everything I have told him? Did we even need to travel here then? I had spoken on the phone prior to us travelling. And forwarded a copy of my report to him before I sent it to the Werewolf Council so he could see what had happened. Seemingly he was fine with the situation, and he didn’t seem to blame Jake for his actions. Which is what I had hoped. He too, saw it how I had, that he was protecting a pack member, which is what any higher ranking pack member would have done, in my view I believe.But hearing him say that Rose had previously attacked people here bothers me. She had attacked people and they had done nothing? Is that what he is saying? Or is he just not giving the details of what happened? It is not really my place to ask questions either. We are guests here, and we are here for awkward reasons, so putting the Alpha under interrogation to find out more about the woman my Beta killed was not possible. S

I am stood in the meeting doing my best to follow what is being said, though I am having very little to do with it. I am here for back up is all. But I will not complain with being able to travel to a foreign country as a warrior. It was a privilege and I should be honoured for that. It is more than I had ever done in my old pack. And having gone over the plans and information, I doubt there would be trouble. I doubted that having heard the assignment brief, and having got here and spoken to the Alpha, I doubted it even less. He seems likes a sound guy. So friendly and kind. Getting on well with Knox too, and that had to be a good sign, and importantly he is saying he would have done the same as Jake did. So if he agrees with what Jake did, then we have got to be good, right?His accent is funny as hell. But other than that, he is a decent guy. Friendly and seems to have accepted the reasons behind what happened to this psycho of a mate that Beta Jake had been fated. Fuck kno

The wedding ceremony had gone as planned and now we were celebrating with our friends and family. Our pack members. Today could not have been more perfect. The sun was shining for us, and Ruby looked as happy as I felt as she danced with her sister and cousin and their children. She had our little boy Leo, in her arms, Esme had Jorge in her arms, and Lola had Dario and Xavier around her feet. Big smiles on all their faces.As our mates were enjoying themselves on the dancefloor, me and my friends were sat relaxing as the sun was setting, all enjoying the music, while drinking beer together, much as we had discussed earlier. A pack party was always a good time, and always good fun, time to spend with friends and family, good food, good music and drink. The kids all having time together with one another, running around being crazy together, while the parents all chilled out together too. Like we had done when we were their ages. It was a perfect way to spend time. And today it was even

1 year later I stood at the end of the aisle, where the wooden gazebo was in place, next to Knox, my best man, and Alpha. Today was the day I had been looking forward to. Not only would Ruby be my mate, but she would become my wife too. The sun was shining and the pack was beautifully decorated for our special day we had spent months organising. I had wanted everything to be perfect for my perfect mate. The perfect day to celebrate our love, our relationship, our fate. I looked to my friends Dan, Gabe, and Manny, all of whom stood by the side of Knox. All smiling at me as they wait with me for my mate. I had to have them with me for today. All four of them, my closest friends, are like brothers to me, so my wedding day would not be complete without them being involved. Gabe winks and nods his head as he sees me looking at him.'You all good?' he mind links.'Couldn't be better' I responded. 'Just ready to get today underway'Gabe grins ' Always so impatient aren't you, J?

“Well beautiful, now they have gone, are we going to get your things moved in?” I ask, desperate to have her moved in officially. “Haha, you waste no time, do you Guapo?” she chuckles, walking to the lounge having waved our friends off from the front door. They had stayed for a large portion of the morning and early afternoon. Nothing like taking up my quality time with my new mate! I would make my friends pay for that in training, they could be sure of that! Despite all my hints for them to leave once we had eaten the food they had brought with them, and we had caught them up with the new developments, they still chose to stay and chat, endless, boring chat… or that is what it felt like. Maybe that is because my mind was focused on other things - things like the fact I wanted to get my hands on my mate! And them being there was stopping that from happening. “Well, is there something wrong with me wanting my mate to move in?” I ask. “Just want her snuggled up in bed with m

“You guys are so perfect for each other, it is about time you got together, we have been saying this all along” Indie says, still in a high-pitched voice. God damn, I wish she would speak less loudly. She gives me a headache! How Dan is not deaf by now I do not know. “Well, seems fate had that planned for us.” Ruby said with a smile so beautiful, she was clearly overjoyed by this new development. “So you took her as a chosen mate after all?” Dan asks. Jake shakes his head. “See, that is a development you don’t all know. We happened to bump into each other yesterday. And well, there were signs of fated mates there… seems fate had decided that we would be second chance mates after all”. There is a look in his eyes that tells me he is emotional. I am not surprised! Second-chance mates are rare. But they had both been blessed with one. One that could not be more perfect for them either. And they both truly deserved this second chance at happiness. Indie squealed in deli

It was always fun to tease and joke around with Ruby, she was so easy to wind up, but that was irrelevant right now with her laid underneath me. I kissed her again before she had a chance to argue with me. Her lips surrender to mine, kissing me back, her tongue finding mine in an instant. Mmmm, I knew she couldn’t resist me… Her hand was roughly running through my hair, making me shiver as our kisses deepened. I let my hand wander down to her hips, gently beginning to explore with my fingers, teasing with them as I let them move to where I wanted to go… Boom Boom Boom. There was a heavy knocking at the door. Dammit! What the hell?! I pause what I am doing for a moment. “Maybe if we ignore them they will go away?” I whisper. Ruby smirks at me and nods, pulling me back to her for a kiss. Continuing our kisses, allowing our hands to begin to wander once more just as the banging at the door too continues. Boom Boom Boom. “Wakey Wakey Jakey Jakey!” I hear a voice that s
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 102 - Ruby
I woke up feeling so sleepy, I don’t think I slept last night. I stretched out in bed, not wanting to open my eyes, knowing once I did I would not be able to get back to sleep. I felt something touch my hip. And I froze. What the fuck was that?! My heart began to race. Whatever it was was still there… I balled my fist up and lashed out sleepily, whoever or whatever was in my fucking room would regret it! “Ooph Rubes!” I heard Jake's voice. And my heart drops, as I suddenly realised what I had done. Shit. I had forgotten. How terrible am I?! I quickly sit up, I’m most definitely awake now! “Oh Guapo, I am so sorry, are you ok?!” I look down at him, he is holding his face. Did I punch his face? “Was I that bad last night that I deserve a black eye?!” he chuckles. “Or is just that I kept you awake most of the night?” I blushed, not wanting to admit to him I had forgotten I was in his bed. Admit I had forgotten we had marked and mated one another. That makes
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 101 - Jake
Woah… that was fucking mind-blowing! Literally… Every touch had felt amazing. I had thought of this moment for so long… Been wanting her for so long and the day had finally come, and it had been everything I had dreamt of and more… Every time we kissed, or touched, feeling myself inside of her… it truly was like we were meant to be. And then the moment we reached our peaks, I knew I didn't want to wait then, I had to mark her, my fangs had elongated, needing to bite her, give her my mark. I leant down and punctured the skin along the collar bone, where her neck meets it. The metallic taste of her blood hitting my tastebuds almost immediately, but it not being unpleasant. This was my mate. I was marking her! And I licked up the blood dripping on her skin, as she shivered at the contact. It added a whole other level of arousal. I truly don't think things could be more perfect. This girl had been made for me, of that I am certain. Then suddenly she was sinking her canines into
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 100 - Ruby
I have a feeling Jake was either unsure if this was what he wanted, or he was feeling a little more nervous than he wanted to let on. I was kind of hoping it was more the second of the two, which, in many ways, was quite sweet really. There is nothing wrong with being nervous. Hell, I am nervous. It has been a long time since I have been near a man. Well, the only man I had been near was Seb. And obviously, the quick fumble with Jake on Esme’s graduation. That has been my whole experience with men. So, far from vast. But I do find it incredibly sweet to think he may be a little on the nervous side about being with me, though the longer he took in the shower the more I was beginning to think it was more that he was simply beginning to question his whole decision. Until he came into the bedroom, half naked, still damp and a towel slung low around his hips. My poor eyes did not know where to look! So I avoided looking at all. I already have seen him in swim shorts at the lake and
A Beta's Regret - A Twist of Fate? Chapter 99 - Jake
After watching Gabe's display of horrendous spy action, (Oh he was so far from being the next James Bond!) and dragging Ruby inside the house, we had sat talking for all of five minutes or so and I could not wait a moment longer. I literally stood up and said to her “Now, do I get to take my mate to bed, Miss Ruby? I have been waiting for quite some time for this I can’t lie…” And I truly wasn’t lying, it was something I had wanted for a long time, since before we knew we were mates. The fact we hadn’t actually done anything, and we were going to do this for the first time, as mates, was kinda special, without a doubt. So, as much as I have cursed fate lately, it seems fate truly did have a plan for me and my Rubes all along. I just want to make sure this is special for her, perfect... Ruby reaches for my hand, a shy smile on her face, as she looks up at me through her long, dark lashes. I have waited so long for this moment, I truly want it to be perfect. Make her feel amazin
