Jovita's POV

“He's such a handsome man, dear child, I wish I could go back to being nineteen, oh my gosh, the moon goddess sure has good eyes for matching couples”, my Mimoh gushed.

I threw her a deadly glance, going back to stirring the pasta we were having for dinner.

I had been on my way to see my besties to relay the event of yesterday, but I met my Mimoh on my way out, and somehow I ended up in the kitchen, making pasta and listening to my Mimoh's unbearable ramble. In my favourite evening dress!

“Gosh Mimoh, I've heard enough, drop it already”.

“Jovie darling, don't be a vibe killer, maybe we should invite him to dinner”.

“No” I screamed, earning a curious glance from my Mimoh.

Ever since the day Jayden dropped by my house in search of me, Mimoh won't stop talking about him.

It was always “Oh my gosh he's so handsome, how could he be so perfect, his very respectful too, he even helped me feed my cat, he'd make a perfect mate for you, see how stunning he looked when he smiled, I

    Jovita's POVI stared at my room window, nervous and unsure what to do. A part of me wished Jayden would jump through the window this instant, and another part cringed at the thought of seeing him.He said he was going to come last night, but he had broken his promise.Though I knew he wouldn't, I hoped he was going to show up. And maybe we could talk more about the Uriel issue. I had stayed up most of the night waiting, and woken up with a bad headache and a sour mood.I knew I had no right to be angry, but my stubborn personality wouldn't let me. Jayden was right, I had almost died at the hands of the person I called my ex-best friend, and it was stupid of me to still want to meet him. He had only tried to elaborate that fact to me but I had been adamant.I knew the guy I dined with at the mall wasn't the same Uriel I saw at Conan's party and on my date with Jayden, but I had no proof. What if Uriel was just playing games with me? A part of me couldn't go with that no matter how I t

    Jayden's POV“Go easy on the controls, man”, Phil teased, laughing loudly.I sent him a dagger stare, focusing back on the game. I had won him twice in a roll. The boys were hanging out at Eric and I’s house for the weekend.“Our man is quite excited for his date”, Conan teased Phil, playfully swatting his head.“Seriously, Phil is the only romantic dude in this room”, Eric said, erupting a feat of laughter from the boys.“Seth is quite good too. He was sweet on Jovita when we were younger”, Phil said.The whole room went silent, and all eyes turned to me and Seth. Phil scratched his neck nervously, throwing Seth and me a pleading look. I saw the hurt flash in Seth's eyes before he turned his attention to his phone, not saying a word.I felt slightly jealous at the thought of Seth being sweet with Jovita, even though it was in the past. I made a mental note to beat whatever he had done.“Who wants a glass of some vintage red wine?” Eric asked, heading for our cellar.“Me”, the boys

    Jovita's POVJayden led me into our garden, and I followed silently. A part of me was still wondering if he was mad at me. We had spoken during dinner, yes, but it was all formal and courteous talk, nothing more, and now he was leading me aside for a private chat, far from the eyes and ears of my parents.He looked stunning as usual in black cargo pants, a white T-shirt, a black puffer jacket, and black boots. His long hair was packed in a low bun, giving a mature look.When we got to the garden, he sat on the bench, while I stood facing him.“You said you were going to come last night!” I voiced out without realizing it, the words had been in my head, but I didn't know they were going to come out of my lips.The surprised look he threw me did nothing to lessen my anger. I knew he was the one who was meant to be angry right now, but I couldn't care less. I waited all night for him.“Did you miss me that much? I didn't think you would”. He had a growing smirk on his face.“You made a

    Jovita's POV“I love how your body responds to my touch”, Jayden breathed in my ears, sending shivers through my body. “Come here”.He led me to the bed, straddling me on his lap, his gaze locking with mine.I sat on him, feeling stupid, and unsure of what to do.“We should lock the door “, I mumbled, trying to hide my nervousness. “Are you shy, mate? Just tell me if you're not okay with it and I'll stop. His eyes twinkled with excitement and a smile spread on his handsome face. He was enjoying himself.I gave him a pouty face, refusing to answer his question. I didn't want to look stupid in front of him.“You'd never look stupid in front of me”. My pulse quickened as my hands slid under my shirt, rubbing my bare back through and fro. His eyes looked like they were darkening with each stroke.“I…umm.. it's just”. I wanted to say the words, I wanted to let them out I'll but to be honest I didn't even know what to say. Okay so, this is like my first time being intimate with a guy, and

    Jayden’s POVI woke up to see Jovita watching me, her hands in my hair. I'd come to love the feel of them there.“Good morning”, she said shyly.“Morning”.I stood up from the bed, searching where I had flung my pants last night. Once again I had a peaceful night's rest in her arms. I could never get used to this.“Are you leaving already?” She blinked her eyes shyly, I could see she was unsure of what to say and her thoughts were still filled with the events of last night. Her innocence warmed me.“Would you prefer I go down with you for breakfast, or take that off and continue from where we stopped last night”.She gulped, holding onto the sheets she was using to cover her gorgeous body. God knows if I wasn't in a hurry this morning, I would have gladly covered the distance between us and ripped them off.“Umm…I thought maybe you would, you…know, want something too”.I laughed softly as I realized what she was talking about.“Now no, but in the future, hell yes!”“Okay”, she replied

    Jovita's POV I laid down on the mat Maddie had spread, staring at the other students as they ran and played around the ghost beach.I was surprised when Maddie informed me that Jacob, one of the school hotties, was throwing a party here, and we were invited. It was unusual to have people throw parties on this particular beach. They rarely came near here at all. It had many ghost stories that kept people away.“Why so grumpy Jovie?” Anne asked, passing me a sandwich.“She's scared of seeing a ghost”, Maddie said laughing loudly.She had been taunting me with those words since I had told her I was having an ominous feeling about this party.A group of handsome boys walking by turned to stare at us with amusement on their faces. They winked at us, blowing kisses. “Gosh the one with the wavy, black hair is so beautiful”, one of them said, staring directly at me, a seductive smile on his face.“She's taken. You don't want to be on Jayden's bad side”, his friend said, laughing.“Oh my, sh

    Jayden's POV I shut my eyes as the plane took off, headed for France. It's been just a few months since I left home, but it felt like ages, and surprisingly, I had missed it.As much as I tried to prevent it, my mind kept drifting back to Jovita. I wondered what she was doing, and hoped she was fine.Seth, Phil, and Conan had promised to watch over her while I was away. Though I didn't like the idea of Seth being with her, people were known to go the extra mile to protect the ones they cherished the most, and in this case, it was Jovita.My wolf growled inside my head, and I chuckled. It was surely one hell of a jealous mate.I felt like an incompetent person, leaving her at a time when she was currently being hunted by an obsessed vampire.I wondered why my father had summoned me anyway. It had better be for a good reason.“We'd have a glass of red wine and whatever nice you have to go with it”, Eric said, winking at a pretty air hostess hovering over us.I hadn't even realized she

    Jovita's POVI felt my eyelids burn as I tried to open them. I wasn't yet sure where I was, but I was breathing so it meant I was on land. I could hear the sound of the roaring waves, so I was still close to the sea.What had happened? Had I been washed to the bank? A flicker of hope filled me.When I managed to open my eyes, I saw I was at the bank of the sea, but not the bank in Forktown.Fear gripped me as I observed my surroundings. I was surrounded by a thick forest, and the sun was beginning to set. I was cold, hungry, and alone with no means of communication. I was finally going to die, but never imagined it would be on an unknown eerie beach, alone.I felt sobs build in my chest, and I tried to fight the tears that ran down my cheeks. I had no idea what I was meant to do.“I see you're awake, I was scared the water had left a stronger impact, but thankfully it didn't”, a familiar voice said among the trees.I scrambled to my feet both glad and terrified to have company. Though

We're now all sitting in the throne room.We buried Jayden’s father a week ago, and though there's still tension in the air, the fighting has stopped, and the pack is finally willing to accept Jayden as their leader, with me by his side.Marcus turns to me with another crown in his hands, and a murmur starts to go among the crowd.“I still don't understand why we have to accept her as our Luna”, one of the elders in the crowd says.“We won, you're hardly in a position to make suggestions”, Eric says. He is sitting beside Jayden.“You betrayed the pack, Jayden, look at all the havoc you caused”, Kreed says.“I gave my life to the pack, and they took it gle

I'm dressing up to go and join Jayden and the others on the battlefield. Things are getting tougher for them.This whole fight, as much as I hate to admit it, it's all because of me. If Jayden hadn't chosen to be with me, then all this won't be happening. I can't let anyone die because of me. Not anymore.“I'm going to join the others”, I say to Maddie, packing my hair in a high bun.“You’re not going anywhere”, Maddie replies, planting herself in front of me. Betty and Anne went along with the boys to fight, while Maddie stayed behind to protect me.It was agreed I wouldn't fight because of my supposed pregnancy and the fact that I was the major reason the fight was happening in the first place. Killing me would be the best way to win.“I have to help, they're all out there risking their life because of me”, I say to Maddie.“They're n

It's time to fight.We're all in our wolf form, waiting for the battle line to be drawn.My uncle is visibly the largest wolf among us, though I'm slightly close to his size since I have two wolves. My Dad who insisted on fighting with us is standing a few feet from us. He is a warrior white wolf so he is almost up to my size. My pack’s council starts to walk towards us. They stop just a stone's throw from us. They're three extremely old great whites that have lived for probably a hundred years. They're revered and feared by all.“I see you went to join your son, Edward”, Castiel, one of the trio says. He is a handsome, well-built man, looking very much like he just reached his fifties. He is the leader of the trio.“He is my blood, and I believe he has a right to choose his love”, my father replies.“The pack comes before love”, Marcus says. He looks a bit older than Castiel.“I've always th

    Jayden’s POVI follow my uncle wondering why he wants to see me. He asked me to leave, so why is he asking for me now?My uncle walks outside his castle to a black Phantom parked in front of the building.“Get in”, he orders, taking the wheel.“Where are we going?” I ask.“To see your mother”, he replies.By going to see my mom, my uncle meant going to see my mother's grave. He took her body that day, seven years ago, and he never let us see her again.“Why are you suddenly letting me visit her?” I ask, trying to control the emotions raging inside me.“Because she has been asking of you. She won't let me rest if I don't help you, so I don't have a choice.My uncle runs his hands through his black long hair as he starts the car.“Does she speak to you?” I ask after a while.“Yes. I'm sorry Jayden, for how I treated you all these years. It wasn't your fault, and I should have blamed you, but I was too angry”.I stare at my uncle in disbelief. Was he apologizing?The rest of the drive wa

    Jovita's POVI lay down on Jayden's wet shirt anticipating what was to come.Jayden joins me on the shirt and leans himself up on his elbow to hold his weight so that he is lying on his side facing me as I lie on my back. I suddenly feel shy as his eyes wash over me, and I move my hands to cover my body.Jayden sits up and grabs my wrist, planting them on either of my sides. “Don't you ever try to cover your body, not from me”, he says with seriousness in his voice.“I’m just a little bit shy”, I say with a nervous chuckle.“You don't have to be. There are many things I want to do to you, Jovita”, he whispers in my ears, climbing on top of me, his weight supported by his hands. He is in a push-up position. His wet hair drips on my face, and I squirm, laughing.He places a soft kiss on my face before his hands start to explore my body. He starts from my neck, down the valley of my breasts, down to my stomach until he reaches my panties. He pauses for a while, watching me.His hands re

    Jovita's POVI wrap my arms around Jayden and rest his head on my shoulder.“It's alright. It's fine”, I whisper, patting his back.“I'm sorry I kept it all away from you. I couldn't bring myself to relieve the pain”, Jayden says between sobs.My heart breaks as I hear him crying, and I forget that I'm angry at him. We haven't been this close since forever, and it feels good to hold him again.“It's fine, Jayden. You have to stop blaming yourself for your mother's death. You aren't the creator, and it was all bound to happen”, I whisper.“If only I had stopped her, things would have been so different”, Jayden replies.“It's the past now, and she would want you to let go of the guilt. She would want you to be happy”.“I don't deserve to be happy, Jovita”.“Of course you do”.“Everything I touch burns. Everyone around me gets heartbroken”.“You know that's not true”.“It's true, Jovita.

    Jovita's POVI take off my clothes and head outside to meet Jayden. Thankfully I wore my favorite black undies. I reach the door and then turn back. I'm too shy to go out there to meet him in only a bra and panties. So I wear Jayden's shirt. I can't help but admire how his shirt smells like the rich cologne and the lovely smell I can only describe as Jayden.When I reach the pool, Jayden is already in the water. I can see water falling from his black hair. He smiles and pushes his hair back with one hand, his eyes twinkling with surprise.“Are you going to swim in that?” He asks, his eyes darkening as they take in my body. Impulsively, I tug at the bottom of his black T-shirt, trying to push it as far as it would go.“Yes”, I reply to his question feeling stupid. What was I so shy about? We've slept together about five times now.“Come on, are you shy, mate?” Jayden says, laughing.“I don't know”. I feel helpless right now.Jayden takes his bottom lips between his teeth, and I can s

The others are still in the room.“I'm fighting for my Luna and my throne”, I correct her.“Does that even make sense to you?” You could always find a new mate and rule”.“Don't you dare say that?”She runs her hands through her hair and bites on her pink bottom lips. “People are going to die, and why, just because of me? I can't bear that”.“It's you I'm choosing no matter what”, I say to Jovita, taking her hands.“Jayden?” Jovita whispers, her eyes glossy from the tears that are building up.“Please don't refuse me, Jovita. Tell me you want me too, tell me you want us”. I'm desperately waiting for an answer now.“I want you too, I want us, but I don't want anybody getting hurt because of me. You should do what your park wants. It's much better since your uncle refuses to help”.“I'm going to do what I want”.“Then let's not fight. I don't care abo
