Chapter three

POV Axel.

I stare at her as she disappears into the Forrest. Finally, I have found my mate. But she is Jack’s freaking daughter. Why her? I ask myself as I walk back home. What was she doing on our side of the border anyway? And why would she think I am a rogue wolf?

I walk through the back door and I am headed to the kitchen. As I walk into the kitchen I see my beta Hunter with a pack of milk in his mouth.

“What happened to you,” he asks almost choking on the milk.

“Nothing, shouldn’t you be in bed?” I reply while opening the fridge looking for something to drink.

“Says who?” Hunter replies

He has a point. Hunter is my beta and also my best friend. Basically a brother. His parents died when he was 8 years old. My parents took him in like he was their own. We grew up together.

“So are you going to tell me what happened?” He asks staring at me as I pour a glass of orange juice.

“Fine," I tell him knowing he won’t give up until I tell him what had happened.

“I found my mate," I tell him with a big sigh.

“That’s amazing! Took you long enough. You should be happy. Why aren’t you happy?” he asks confused at my frowned eyebrows.

“She is alpha Jack’s daughter. “

“Shhiii... what are you going to do now?”

“I don’t know. I think she is in as much shock as I am.” I bite my lip thinking about her face when she realized who I am. She looked like she just witnessed a murder.

“I Uhm, I don’t know what to do. I’m going to take a shower and get some work done.”

I walk upstairs headed to my bedroom. I turn on the shower. The hot water hits my back. I keep thinking about her. My mate. Why her goddess. Why couldn’t she be someone else’s daughter?

I turn off the shower and get dressed. I go to my office to get some work done. I can’t focus. All I can think about is her. Kristy. Her beautiful blue eyes. I close my eyes as I drift off, picturing her in front of me. Her long dark hair and perfectly shaped face. Don’t even get me started on her scent. She smells like flowers on a summer morning. I inhale deeply, almost able to smell her scent. I wonder if she is thinking about me as well. I long for her touch. Her warm body against mine.

I am startled from my daydream when my office door opens with a sweep.

Hunter walks in.

“Am I interrupting?”

“Can’t you knock?” I ask him irritated he woke me up from my daydream.

“Anyway, what is the reason for you startling in my office.”

“Some wolves tried to go over the border this morning. The border patrol took some pictures. They were able to scare them off. Do you recognize any of them?” hunter throws a few pictures on my desk.

I recognize them immediately.

“They are alpha Jack’s wolves.” I look up at him. Hunter nods.

“What were they doing here?” I ask him

“No clue. They haven’t crossed in a while.”

“You think Jack knows I am his daughter's mate. Or is he just looking for a fight again?”

“I don’t know you tell me. Maybe you should go talk to your girl".

He is right. I will try and reach her tonight. See if she knows anything.

“I will get to the bottom of it. Let's bolster border patrol for now. At least until we have more information.”

Hunter nods and leaves to inform our patrolman.

The day crawls by. Minutes feel like hours and all I can think about is her. Her beautiful blue eyes, rosy cheeks, and chocolate brown hair. I should see if she can meet me tonight. I need answers as to why her father's wolves tried to come over the border. I try to mind link her but she blocks me.
