Ares’ Pov I know Jason is surprised by my action, but all I could think about at that moment was how much I wanted him and how long it’s been since I’ve been with him. Like with him, with him. “Baby, you have no idea what you are asking for” Jason whispered before flipping us over with me under him. He trailed his hands softly down the sides of my body before bringing his left hand to raise my head up for a bruising kiss. The force of the kiss forces me to arch my back off the bed. He growled into the kiss before breaking away to kiss my mark. My nipples hardened to a painful point and Jason wasted no time tending to it. He sucked the first into his mouth while he fondled the other with his hands. Pleasure coursed through my body at an unprecedented pace. I released a sigh of contentment the more he touched me. Groaning and moaning with each pleasure. “I've missed you so much, love” he said “especially those little sounds of pleasure you make.” “Don't tease me Jason” He didn't
We had our, got dressed and headed downstairs together. I was surprised to not find anyone even as we made our way out of the pack house.“Where is Everyone?” I asked Jason when I couldn’t hold it in anymore.“They are already waiting for us at the hall.” he answered “I called them while you were still dressing up” I nodded without pausing my movement.We simply held hands as we walked the rest of the way to the hall. I hear voices as we get closer to the hall. The air was buzzing with energy and positivity.The minute one person saw us he stopped talking to his friend and started clapping, then his friend joined in and soon the entire hall was in an uproar and we slowly made our way to the stage together.The applause continued on for the next two minutes before Jason signalled them to stop.“Evening everyone” Jason smiled at the crowd and received beaming smiles right back. “I’m sure by now you all know what happened the last few days” the crowd nodded.“Well, I’m going to give you
Jason’s povIt was strange seeing Ares talking to Lyla last night. She used to suspect her, but suddenly they seemed close. There was a sense of familiarity and a new bond that had formed between them.“Josh,” I called as I walked towards my parked truck. “Meet me at the border in five minutes, you’ll be going with me to Killian’s pack” I informed him.I drove steadily to the pack’s border and found Josh already waiting for me. “Get in.” We drove steadily to the Jade wolf pack. I still have to properly thank him for his help.Two hours later, we slowly pulled up at the Jade wolf border. The guards let us through after confirming our identity. I even recognise two of the guards. They went with us to Maverick’s pack. They had a look of awe on their faces as we nodded in their direction.We pulled up and made our way over to his office. I’m sure the guards already informed him of our arrival. As if confirming my thoughts, he was outside already waiting for us.“Jason” Killain said as he
“When you say leave, what exactly do you mean?” I asked seriously. I was seriously confused about what brought this on. Did he feel mistreated at the pack? Was he still scared about losing his parents? Was he too stressed at work?“I don’t mean it in the way you think” he tried to hastily explain.“Please help me understand,” I said. “I just want to move out of the pack. Everything is fine.” he said in his usual calm tone “I mean Luna is fine, the pack is safe and now just feels like the best time to find my own thing” he finished“You want to leave because the pack is safe?!” I asked “okay, where exactly are you planning to move to? Another pack or something?”“I’m thinking of moving into town. With the humans. It will let me be closer to the job and clear my head” Cole said “plus I don’t have the best memories here or anywhere actually and I’d really love to make some.”“Is it because of the rejection thing?” I asked in concern. “What about your sister and your aunt? What do you p
Ares’ Pov“Come on. It’s one party until you leave us.” Madison whined to Isabelle again. Trying to convince her to come to the party we were throwing her. “I’m sure your mate wouldn’t mind waiting one more day. Back me up here Ares”“Yeah. She’s right. I think James might understand.” I offered her a small smile. “He’s going to have you everyday from tomorrow. So just give us the rest of today.”“Fine. Fine. You both suck at convincing someone,” Isabelle chuckled a little. “But I’ll go if you stop trying.” She finally stopped packing. “So where is this party going to be held?”“The living room actually. We could just have wine, eat and say our tearful goodbyes.” Madison said. “Plus I have news that I’d like to share with you.”“What news?” Isabelle and I echoed after each other.“More reasons why you should party with me” Madison said in a sing-song voice.“You definitely got my attention now,” Isabelle said, dropping the clothes in her hands.“Athena, I know I’m supposed to be letti
We went to bed that night with troubled minds. If werewolves are coming all over from different packs just to join our pack, who is to say the people that tried to kill when I was a baby haven’t heard too. The next morning, I followed Jason to the pack’s border. Apparently he told them he wasn’t going to let strangers into our pack and they decided to camp outside our borders last night without questions. The guards on duty kept a watch on them the entire night, but they didn’t do anything strange. Which made things even stranger. “Morning Alpha, morning Luna” the guards greeted. “Morning guys” I replied with a smile, while Jason just nodded at them. “Anything happen?” Jason asked while keeping his eyes on the group of people camping not far away from our border. “Not really,” Gareth answered. “They have been quiet since you left last night. Honestly, it’s kinda creeping me out.” “Can you go ask them to send a representative so we can talk?” Jason asked. “Okay.” Gareth bowed and
Two weeks ago.“This pack seems to be unguarded. Should we check it out?” a male voice asked.“I don’t feel like adding extra work for ourselves.” the other voice replied. “Let’s just get what we are supposed to get for Damon and leave. You know how he gets when he doesn’t get what he wants.”“But come on. Aren’t you a little curious?” the first voice asked.“Fine. two minutes and we are out”They headed in and made their way to the field by following the footprints and witnessed something remarkable. They saw Jason use his flames whips, but the most remarkable thing was seeing Ares using her bow. That’s not something that happens everyday. They slowly made their way back out while they were occupied with Fiona. “Isn’t it a good thing I made us check it out?” the first voice asked.“Isn’t that the princess that Damon thought had died?” the second voice asked. “How is she still alive?”“Don’t ask me, Vincent.” the first voice said “I’m just as shocked as you are.”“We are definitely g
Jason’s pov“Jason,” Ares called my name softly. We were in the comfort of our room after she told me to take my time that she could wait.“I’m listening beautiful,” I answered.“Remember back when I told you I spoke to the moon goddess and my parents?” Ares asked slowly.“Yeah I do.” I replied. “Did she tell you anything?”“Yes she did” she answered. There was no look of worry on her face, but I could tell how uneasy she felt through the mate bond. Which made me uneasy too.“Please tell me.” I pleaded softly. “Don’t make me guess.”“Let me just start at the beginning.” she said. “When I met Josh and we went into your office to talk, well I found out that my parents died trying to save me and so did Josh’s dad. Who left as much information as he could for us behind before he joined the fight again.”I nodded my head and she continued. “Well, Selene just warned me about how the people that attacked are still alive and they know that I am too and they aren’t all forgiving.”“Basically,
Cole’s pov It’s been 10 years since I rejected my mate, 9 years since I left the pack to reside with the humans and in two minutes, I’m about to meet a man that will change everything. Jason had given me all the rights to make decisions with the business. Leaving me as the acting CEO. While he remained as the largest shareholder. I had asked the HR to find me an assistant. A competent one. She’s been holding interviews for the past week. Each one she deemed good enough wasn’t for me. I told her if she couldn’t find one before Monday, she would be my assistant. Then she found one. Evans Bernard. I was knee deep in documents, when a knock broke off my attention. Everyone knew not to disturb me while I’m working unless it was absolutely important. “Come in,” I said. The moment the door opens, I’m hit with the most wonderful scent that takes me by surprise. I looked up startled to find the HR, Mrs. Kent and a man, not older than twenty-five or twenty-six beside her. “Mate,” my wolf s
Ares’s povThe next months were a blur. My belly got bigger. Adriana turned five. We got even closer. She’s so excited for the baby. She even promised to give all of her toys to the baby. Bless her pure soul.Lyla told me she’s informed my parents of my pregnancy and they sent their wishes. She, Felix and the elders have been guiding Jason through the whole ruling thing. He started holding meetings with other Alphas once every two months.They knew I was pregnant now. No big shirt could hide it. They all gave their blessings, but one can never be too careful. I was spending my afternoon with Adriana, when my water broke. “Jason, get home now!” I said to the mate link. I rubbed my stomach and tried to breath through the contraptions.“What’s wrong?” he asked worriedly.“The baby!” I said, taking deep breaths. “He’s coming! Get here fast, please.”He got to the house in record time. I could see the sweat dripping off his head, as he went on to take the things he needed. Adriana helped
Ares’ pov All Alphas and Luna's present erupted into cheers, and applause as we were crowned. The pack members cheered the loudest. “Long live Queen Ares and King Jason!” the crowd repeated. Even if they weren’t happy or were uncertain about what the future held for them with Jason and I ruling, they still had to cheer. We sat on the throne for a while before making our way to speak to some familiar faces. “Your majesty, may I have this dance?” a voice sounded beside me, interrupting my discussion with James. James offered me a small smile and excused himself, leaving to go find Isabelle, who was probably in the pack house with Madison and the twins. I turned to see Alpha Killian. An Alpha of a neighbouring pack and somewhat ally. He had this mischievous look in his eyes as he stretched his hands towards me. I accepted it with a smile. I had an image to maintain now. I caught Jason’s eye as Alpha Killian and I made our way to the centre of the room. He led me into a graceful wal
Jason’s povThe mate ceremony yesterday was so beautiful. Watching Ares walk down the aisle to me was the most beautiful sight ever. She shined. Everything about her was glowing. She wants us to hold the ball along with our coronation at the same time before her belly starts to show.After spending half the day with me, she sent me off to go and start working on the invites. She offered to help, but I’d rather not stress her out. Plus I knew more Alphas than she does. It would be easier for me to get the word out.I had Luke help out on sending the invites to other Alphas and Lunas. They were allowed to come with their betas if they wanted, but no more than two extra guests. We sent the invite to over twenty alphas and their lunas. Including Alpha Killian and Cain, who had been of great help to us these past few months. The invitation was for them to attend the grand ball and our coronation too, in the next two weeks. The event would also serve as a way of announcing Ares as the late
Ares’ pov“Wait, what?” I must have misheard him. There’s no way he said I’m pregnant. His face falls at my question.“You don’t want it?” he asked. I could see the hurt on his face. I didn’t mean to cause that. Oh my god, I’m really pregnant!“I’m pregnant!” I said this time with a smile. “We are having a baby.” he nodded, but was still reluctant to smile. My earlier reaction must still be rubbing him the wrong way.“Do you want this baby with me?” he asked again. I could tell from the mate bond that he was a little hesitant to hear my answer. “I know you said you wanted to wait for a year or two first.”“Of course I want this baby with you,” I said, smiling. “I just can’t believe I’m really pregnant. I was trying so hard. I didn’t want to put my hopes up. I saw your reaction, and even felt your emotions when we did the test last time.” I explained to him.“We are having a baby,” he said this time with a smile. I moved closer to him and he pulled me into his chest. “We are having a b
Jason’s povThe next few months were a blur. I gave permission to have other packs in ours. Other packs had volunteered to help. The news had gone round. If they were skeptical about having us rule, they did a good job of hiding it.Felix came back the same time those elders did. He told us we could open the things he brought back after the coronation. He was purposefully leaving us in suspense. Every two weeks, Ares and I were required to take classes with the elders concerning the throne. In less than a month, we would be done with building the castle. The first good news we received was that Madison, my mates best friend, was in labour. Isabelle and Cole came down to the pack so they could be witnesses to the birth. Luke was on tenterhooks about it.He nearly brought down the pack hospital with his pacing and yelling. After an hour of hearing Madison yelling from behind the door, she finally gave birth to twins. A boy and a girl just like her and Cole. We all assumed it would be
Jason’s PovAs the others worked on the castle, I worked alone on the house. I had to tear down some worn out parts and replace them. Cole helped a lot by helping me send the things I ordered down to the pack.It took a lot of time, but I was finally happy with the result. All that was left now was to show it to her. I had already moved our things and Adriana’s to the house before I went to the office to get her. I walked in to find her bent over seriously looking over documents. She had taken it upon herself to take care of the pack work while we worked on the castle. Killian had been kind enough to send some people over, but knowing him, It’s definitely not from the kindness of his heart. He would want something in return. Maybe not now, but I know he will.When he saw Felix though, I saw him smile for the time. A real genuine smile. They chatted and caught up like old friends. He looked more human that day. Cain helped too, and so did James, who got closer to me as we worked toget
Ares’s povI search his face for signs that he was joking, but I see none. I smiled, moved closer to him and cupped his face in my hands. “It’s fine, Jason,” I said. “I don’t think I’ll be changing my mind.” I smiled at him and he leaned in to kiss my lips. We went to bed that night with clear hearts and minds. Tomorrow, we begin building against our future in a year's time. The next morning, after Jason made breakfast for Adriana and I, I barely saw him for the rest of the day. The pack was so busy with people going back and forth with tools and whatnot. I still went into his office to continue the pack work. Josh came around during the day to help out. We sorted out documents together, and I signed documents that needed my approval on things. I have no idea how Jason has been doing it and juggling his company with Cole, but I’m just about ready to call it quits on the whole paperwork.Things went on like that for the next two months. I started getting used to him less and less. W
Jason’s pov“I plan to meet with Luke later and explain things to him,” I said to Ares as I got ready to go to my home office. I looked over to watch her as I finished getting ready. She looked absolutely perfect.“That’s fine with me,” she replied, kissing my cheek. “I trust all of your decisions.” I smiled and gave her a deep kiss before leaving the room. I called Luke as I headed to the office.I’ve explained to Luke what our plan is, so today Ares and I plan to announce it to the pack. We plan to tell them the whole truth. After hanging out with our daughter, we gathered the entire pack in the hall.We waited until everyone was present, including the elders, which I had stayed at the back with, Felix, Hayley, and the guards on duty. Lyla said it would be safe. We waited until everyone was settled in before I started addressing them.“Good evening everyone,” I said to the crowd. “Your Luna and I have a lot to tell you this evening. Those of you that went to fight with us against M
