Jayden’s POV

I 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?

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

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

    Jovita's POV"He's here!" Maddie screamed in a shrill voice.My head snapped in the direction of the entrance door along with many others.There had been a rumour earlier this week that there was a new Alpha on Foxtown town. He had relocated from Alaska due to a clash with the cold ones; he had killed one of their royals and had been suspended from his pack for two moons to maintain peace.According to the rumour, he was going to be attending Torin High School, which was my school."God, he is so hot!" Anna screamed."Cut it out!" Betty snapped at me and my two best friends, Maddie and Anna.Betty was Maddie’s distant cousin, and the Luna of the most powerful werewolf pack in Foxtown; her family was what you call royalty in the human world.Rumour had it that Betty had shifted during the spring break, and this had Alphas lining up and waiting, hoping the moon goddess would favour them with such a powerful Luna.I drew my besties backwards as Betty walked forward to meet the new Alpha;

I was meant to come a day earlier with my cousin and best friend Eric, but I had a few issues to sort out, so I asked him to go before me.Instead of going home from the airport, I decided to drive straight to Torin High School to meet him.On getting there, I was told the students were having lunch already and directed to the cafeteria.When I walked in, the whole room turned to stare at me, but I continued my search for Eric unbothered; I was used to people throwing admiring stares.Just as my eyes fell on Eric, I cut the scent of something familiar other than Eric’s scent, and I felt my body react with excitement. _She’s here,_ the voice in my head whispered."Hey man," Eric said, coming to hug me; he must have perceived my scent."My flight was delayed, otherwise I’d have arrived earlier". "How is your first day at school going?""Not bad. I’m popular with the boys already, I got the girls drooling, and thi

She knew all of my secrets.When she was younger, she ruled the Grey pack and fought many battles for our clan. It's said that she was fearless as a lion and sly as a wolf.Staring at her little form right now made me laugh, from a wolf to a puppy, I thought with a chuckle.Thump!!!“Mimoh!” I screamed as a firm, old hand hit my back.“Oh, so you're making fun of me in your head, forgetting that I can hear your thoughts. I'm going to break that tiny back of yours, turnover.”I twisted out of her arm and fled the store; the old woman could be a lion again when she was offended.“I'd go see if Mrs. Brittany is done with the jar; I'd be back soon,” I screamed.“You better not return today.”“I will, ma. Bye, Mimoh.”I started down the road that led to Mrs. Brittany's store, then changed my mind and he

I think he's currently taking refuge in the woods,” Eric said.I turned to the white Brothers. “Are there houses close to the woods?”“Yes, from what I know, Jovita's house is quite close to the woods. I think there is a house or two a few miles from hers,” Seth replied.“You know Jovita's house?” I asked.“Yes,” Seth replied simply, a look of surprise spreading on his beautiful face. His hair was held back in a ponytail, highlighting his features.“Okay,” I said. I quickly shook the thoughts of her off, knowing Seth and Eric could hear my thoughts.Eric threw me a knowing glance. “I'd watch over her house and the surrounding houses while you run,” he said.Relief washed through me. “Sure, the rest of us will… Don't worry about Jovita, Eric. I'll take care of her,” Seth intercepted.I turned to stare at Eric, communicating with my eyes. He looked at me helplessly, not knowing what to say. Seth stared at both of

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
