7-Blackthorn

Jordan POV.

I yawned again, staying up the whole night watching movies with Ashlynn was something different than driving the whole night, the movies were fun, this is just annoying, the snow made the roads more dangerous, harder to drive. But I managed to drive through, I drove through most of the night, especially with my wolf small detour to have a late-night run, but I'm almost there.

"Mom," I answer the phone annoyed, I'm tired, and annoyed, pissed truly, my wolf wasn't giving me any rest, I'm going to stop and get a coffee and some breakfast.

"Where are you Jordan, you were supposed to be there two hours ago," she says over the phone, she was just worried about me, but that only made me angry.

"I'm here now mother, I'm getting some food," I say skipping the coffee part, she'd lose it on my ass about me having coffee before food, but I'm twenty-one years old now, I'm an adult.

"Jordy, the alpha isn't always the nicest person, to be honest, he's a bitch, but it's good training and he owes me a favour," mom says on the phone, I nod my head but she can't see me nodding, Kiara is rubbing off on me.

"Okay, mom don't worry, I'll spell him into loving me," I answer her, I know I won't my sass would push him away, I will annoy him more than anything else.

"Jordy, he's a heartless jerk, his own kids can't stand him, but he's a good trainer, his pack is one of the strongest out there," mom explains to me, it's all politics, favours being exchanged, and this guy have to give my mom a favour, that is taking me in for training.

I don't like politics much, I don't enjoy them, no wonder Keiran is always frowning when he gets alpha meetings, being an alpha is more than just being dominant, and taking care of everyone else, it's being able to play nicely with others. I parked my car in front of a cafe, it's a small shop like the ones we have back home, I doubt they have a BDSM shop like the one we got back home, I thought to myself with a frown, I loved that shop, sometimes I just walk around the shop and imagine when I got my own mate what would they be interested in.

I walked in the shop and saw people eyeing me, the new person in town, I went to take a seat waiting for my waiter, they took their damn sweet time, before coming toward my table, looking at me with a raised brow.

"Who are you?" she asks instead of asking what I want.

"It's the wrong question honey, it's what would you like to order," I explain to her.

"You're in our town, we don't take in rogues," she says, the word rogue, it got to the bad part of me, the angry part of me, I jumped on my feet and turned to her with a growl.

"What did you call me?" I ask her between gritted teeth, I was close to biting her head off, I'm not a rogue!

"We don' take lone wolves in, leave," she says, but I couldn't leave, mom sent me here, I had every right to be here.

"I didn't ask to be taken in, I'm here for coffee and breakfast," I answer her putting my hands up in a sign of peace.

"We don't serve lone wolves here either," she growls at me, she really had a death wish, but I remember mom's order, play nice.

"Fine, I'll take my coffee on the go," I say with a smile, I should just get back home, this won't end up well for me.

"What are you doing here?" she asks, I wasn't here to get interrogated, I was ready to leave, I turned to leave the stupid cafe, their coffee is bad anyway.

"Stay here, I'm calling the alpha," the same lady says, now she's calling the alpha, I took a seat back and looked at her.

"Please do call the alpha, but in the meantime, get me a coffee please," I say, mom should see me now, look at me using my manners, I said please.

"You...you..." she says annoying me even more now, my teeth were showing, my eyes were going a lot darker, I looked at her with a firm voice, I only use when training with my own pack.

"Get me a coffee, call your alpha, and for fucks sake, stop calling me rogue before I get your head on a stick," I say growling, I've only been here ten minutes and they're getting my nerves, what did they expect me to be? happy? Apologies and leave? I'm pissed, thankfully she did manage to do one thing correctly, she got me my damn coffee, I took a sip of the cold java closing my eyes, finally enjoying a minute of peace.

My peace was broken soon, a man walked in, he had a dark aura around him, he had a big frown on his face, three people were around him, all of them were sharing the same dark aura, the same black one, how does mom even do business with them, they all look shady as hell.

"Who are you boy?" the one in charge asks, he was trying to intimate me, but I was raised with two brothers, this isn't even near as scary as the games we used to play back at home.

"Jordan Nightingale, you must have heard of me," I say with a smile, but the man doesn't smile back, his frown got even worse.

"You're the one alpha Cameron sent?" he asks with disgust, I wanted, I felt the need to bite his head for saying my mother's name, I'm not a rogue, my loyalties are there with my mother, I felt a bit better now, I felt more confident talking to their jerk.

"Alpha Cameron, my mother sent me here," I say proud of calling her my mother, even if we don't share blood bond, she's still my mother.

"You're the one I'm supposed to train, well first lesson boy, don't get in my town unclaimed," he growls at me, don't come unclaimed! He knows I'm coming.

"I'm sorry, I was informed my alpha has already reached out to you," I say with a fake smile, trying to be diplomatic.

"Yes boy, but when coming in, you should pay the alpha respect first, let's go," he order me, leaving the cafe, expecting me to follow, sadly I had to follow, I walked out with him, but was distracted by the sweetest scent ever, my mate...
