JAYDEN'S P. O. V
Talking to his best friend Leam about a new project they were delegated to complete before their internships beginning. The absolute last thing he expected from the day was the hand that swung at him. Fuck. Who the hell dared? Lucas? The hell! Facing the fuming alpha that looks to be seconds away from shifting in front of a human.
"What the fuck was that for?"
Leam helped him get up and they faced the alpha, the human got in front of him to prevent future attacks. There is no way he can get his best friend involved in his world, he will just get hurt that way and if that happens his brother will never forgive him.
"This is the engineering faculty and you just assaulted the faculty head!"
Still shocked. Jayden controlled his stance and acknowledged the fact he just got the punched shitless. Regardless of his anger and fury the secret of their native existence is far more important than the disarray here between them especially when there was a human literally between them. Leam was like an angry dog it was as if he was the one that got punched in the face but that was Leam he was defensive to a fault, his safety. Pulling the angry human far away from the furious alpha, for peace sake he turned Leam around to face him stopping him from thinking or doing anything stupid.
"Leam I will call to give you information about the assignment and a list of places to apply for interviews later. Leave us alone, please."
"But he just-"
"Leam. Trust me. It is fine. It is probably a misunderstanding or something that warrants such a level of violence."
Nodding Leam left accepting Jayden's confidence, he had to assure the man that he can handle the douche who came out of nowhere.
.
The last thing he expected was the man to hand him Leo's phone, confused he accepted it. When Lucas turned to leave his shock eased and he stopped Lucas. His instincts telling him something was seriously wrong, could it be his Leo? Despite the man punching him on his damned face, the most important thing is making sure his fated mate is alright before contemplating any type of revenge.
"What the hell was that for and what the fuck is this?"
"I warned you, I swore I would beat your ass if you were dare to hurt Leo's feelings. Consider the single punch a courtesy, never show your face near Leo again. Oh and the phone keep it, he does not see the use keeping your memory around now."
What the fuck was this guy talking about? Jayden's confusion resonated within him because the alpha continued.
"Dude he saw the pictures trending of you and some misfit you screwed. You done fucked up man. Leo is not one to easily forgive and in this situation I do not see any reason for him to forgive you."
"Screwed? Forgive me for what? And what pictures are you talking about? And courtesy, really?"
"Here. Look."
"Yeah? That's Shawn. Wait... And of me. Together?"
"No shit."
The picture were indeed incriminating. He was asleep in blankets covering his lower half but he was naked, next to him was also a semi naked Shawn. Sleeping. In Leo sheets? What the hell. Shit, what must his mate be thinking? He has to rectify this, this is not what his mate thinks he would ever in a million years want to do...
"This shit is photo shopped. I do not know how but I know I would never cheat on Leo, he is my fated mate. And look... This picture was taken in Leo's room, those are his sheets."
"That means..."
"You all jumped into conclusions. Where is Leo?"
"They went to Lex's apartment."
"You wrong... They went to the Wonder Bar. Alex called sounding really panicked, she said they got separated. Leo is drunk and drunk at time means possible trouble. Your man is in trouble common hustle. Move it. Alex is shit worried and is blaming herself wherever she is. So I suggest you ladies pull up you big boy panties and hustle! Lift your legs guys we do not have all day, hop in my car I will drive us there. The most important thing right now is to find Leo and you two can continue your chit chat later."
Before they hustled into the car he turned around and swung... He hit the alpha square on the jaws and he laughed as the alpha shook his head surprised by the swing. He opened the door in the front seat and sat down waiting before the other man to close the door.
*
Noah arrived at the packed club and unlike other nights, the man was dead serious. He must be shit worried about Alex, the enigma and with that extension Leo. That there was evident by the disregard of laws that ensues road safety.
The club was packed and his fated or Alex in that matter they were nowhere to be seen. Stress made his adrenaline rush down his spine.
'No. Stop. No. Let me go.'
Everything in this part of the club smells disgusting, alcohol, vomit, pee and the scent of fluids encouraged him to decrease the extent of how much he is willing to smell. Unfortunately without his abilities finding a drunk Leo proved to be very difficult and it didn't help the vile scent was getting to him. During his search he saw a man trying to force himself on a drunk, unwilling person although he was desperate to find Leo he could not in good consciousness leave the molestation to happen
He banged the man's head on the wall. Damn he must have misjudged the proximity between the drunk ass and the smaller man. The smaller man almost followed judging by his unsteady stance, almost hitting the questionable ground. Thankfully his adrenaline and instincts worked together to catch him. That is when he realized he just saved his Leo from hitting the foul grounds. His wolf sneered at what could have happened. Growling, his wolf wanted this human to forfeit his life for touching his fated and trying to force himself on him.
"Ahh."
He held his head as if trying to stop the constant swimming and his full attention followed his fated. He wants to get him out of here but Leo is still drunkenly fighting him.
"Leo. Shit. Don't worry I got you."
"No. No. Let me go. No."
Tears soaked his t-shirt and he held on to hand and kissed it reassuring his fated.
"It is me, Jayden. It's me your Jay, baby."
"Jay. Jay."
This was the second time he blacked out in a span to twenty minutes. What if he was late? What if the man managed to defile his fated? What if Leo called out his name and he was nowhere to be seen? What if Leo hates him after tonight?

LEO'S P. O. V
2 days later
Leo woke up warm in large comfortable bed in arms with... It took him a minute to realize that hot incredibly warm body belonged to-
Suddenly jumping up as it he has been burnt, he suddenly got light headed and used his hands to balance on Jayden.
"Leo. Are you fine? You ran a slight fever... Alex said you will be alright but-."
Jayden checked on him as if all was forgiven. He remembers everything and remembering how tender and loving he is hurts more because he still cheated on him.
"Stop! We. Done."
Shit he really fell for a cheater, gosh his an idiot to never have seen the signs of a cheater. His head and heart hurts so bad that he cannot stand this alphas presence right now.
"Leo."
"Let me go. My head hurts. My heart hurts. Seeing you makes me hurt. Stay away from me."
"Leo."
"What?!"
Suddenly he realized what helped him balance grew in length under his touch. When he realized he held onto this man's.... His face flushed a perfect shade of pink, he did not know what to do from here... Jayden was not complaining and that messed with his mind more because he did not know what to do, in his head they are done.
"Shit! I am so sorry."
He apologized absolutely modified, this counts as the worst and embarrassing break ups known to mankind.
"You still touching it."
Goodness still?! Jayden winked and the man unlock a new shade of embarrassment this man did not have the privilege to see.
"Yeah. Right. Sorry. Um. I. It is getting hot. I am leaving. No. I have got to get going. Bye."
A hand stopped him and he tried his level best not to look down. Eye contact, Leo. Eye contact. His body still weakened and it took everything not to jump his bones? Eat him up like his own personalized Thunder dome ice cream, eye contact dammit. Leo you must be mad. Angry. He cheated. You hurt. He cheated. It is over. Do not cry. He cheated. It is not your fault. He cheated. Hold your tears back. His a cheater.
"This is your room."
"I will go to Lex's place."
"She took a trip with Noah to attend a wedding or something I am not in the slightest interested in."
"Then you get out."
"In this state?"
"Yes. You deserve each second of that. I knew it was going to be more challenging for us to work but you messed up. You were not faithful- you are an asshat! Dammit you cheated on me! Hell if I care about your problem- in fact bare the aftermath."
"You are not that cruel."
"Wanna bet- asshole?"
He smirked but then he realized Jayden still held on to his arm.
"I bet you do not have proof of that."
"Oh yeah? I will be right back. It was all over the Newsfee-… I***a… Face.... You took it down. Get out! I do not have time for this mental fuck!"
"Here is my phone."
"What do you expect me to do with your phone?"
"The picture you looking for is there."
He took the phone and when he saw the picture that brought him to so much hurt, he slammed his phone on the alphas chest.
"Take this. Bye!"
"This is still your room."
Leo, just did not want Jayden to stand before him and disrespect him by lying.
"I know it is. Now get out!"
"Stop being stubborn and look at the picture, it is clearly photo shopped. Look."
The sheet, curtains were his. This was a picture without the disgusting home wrecker. He took the picture of the handsome alpha when they started their thing. The third time he was horny, he decided to call Jayden to come over and after their marathon. Leo woke up earlier and saw how perfect his fated looks. He took the picture to have something to masturbate to.
Shawn clearly tried to hide the focal parts, wait Shawn? That douche has his phone and he clearly does not know how Jayden's bedroom looks like. Fuck he jumped the gun. That means Jayden is innocent? Dammit. His going to pay for that accusation and maybe the picture thing. Mhmm... His going to pay for that...
"Shit. Jayden. What happened to your face?"
"Nothing much, it just seems Lucas jumped into the same conclusion as you. Here take your phone, it is yours and don't you ever disrespect me like that again. This phone and everything I give you are gifts, I do not want them returned even when you are angry. Got it? (Leo nods) One last thing, I hope you do not have to walk anywhere tomorrow."
Shit there was no escape, his body has already submitted to his heated gaze making him melt on the spot.
"I am sorry. I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions, putting my life in danger after that and not believing you."
"I got punched, accused and I had to deal with an annoying Shawn who destroyed your old phone."
"I said I am sorry. You can punish me, please."
"Deal. Apology accepted. Now before we start. Hands. Perhaps, me binding you will teach you to wait for me to relieve you..."
"Jayden."
"Say it."
"Please. Make me yours. I want you to make me yours, please. I should have heard you out now something bad almost happened to me. I was scared, if it wasn't for you- please make me yours I want to belong to you, alone.
Next time I have a problem I will come to you, mm first. I am sorry, for the trouble you have been through because of my jealousy and insecurity. I love you. Please do not be mad at me. I do not know what else to say but please. Sir?"
"Leo look at me. I can never be mad at you. I love you so much more than you will ever know. Please come to me next time before making a drastic judgment. When I said I only want you and have eyes only for you alone. I mean it my love.
I will never let go of you, you mine now and I treasure as well as possess what is mine. Tonight I will make sure you never second guess my love for you. Okay, now enough with the chit chat. Kneel..."
Kneel... Leo guessed he will be paying for everything minus the half nude picture that he took, which is fair.
NOAH'S P. O. V"What gift should we get your bother?"Long story short Alex forced him to make a stop to purchase a gift for his brother. Okay that is putting it lightly, what she basically said was:"Get your brother a gift or else I return home, I refuse to go to a wedding empty handed it is bad manners even if I am just accompanying you.""Do not worry we truly not required to buy him anyth-"(Alex got out of the car) and this was before they got to the airport. Lucas, Toby and Jayden tagged along. Jayden was surely eating this drama up mostly because woman always submitted to him with no effort from his end and now there pouts an adorable female he really wanted in his life."What I mean is that we can just show up empty handed, my mother has already prepared our the gifts. Besides she (Noah's mother) just wants to see the reason I refuse to let her guilt me into seeing one of her friend's daughters."Either way Alex did not stop moving towards the mall, Lucas and Toby got out a
ALEX P.O.VDuring their drive to Noah's family house they argued... Noah rented a car that was so expensive for just two days. Toby tried to reassure her of Noah's status here but she did not want to hear anything. Eventually Noah turned back and she chose a nice but less expensive car for them to rent."See. This is comfortable.""Alex, Noah is like a king here... this small car-"She shot the tiny peep squeak an icing glare and he immediately changed his position. She refuse to hurt such a small creature but if it continued running its mouth all bets are off. her wolf snarled in a low deadly tone and the tiny man was then covered by her best friend."Lex your eyes...""Whats wrong with her eyes?"Shooting the tiny man one more glace she was distracted by what Noah considered funny. Her wolf looked ahead but she felt herself resting on her paws and watching 'The office.' She also found that to be funny and laughed eventually the episode ended and they got to talking. At first it was
NOAH'S P.O.V The woman that has always been on his radar have always been models tall, thin and blond or sometimes when he felt frisky brunets. It's not like he went out of his way to avoid woman who are slightly curvy, its more like there was just an unlimited warmth of options. How he stumbled upon his gorgeous fated is beyond him, she's not a model, she's average height, she has more grab than his average type and she smells like honey and coconut milk. Although he has never had sex with a woman this sallow friend in the past would call a '304 not worth his time.' Begrudgingly his interest at first was based on the worst intentions but he does not view Alex as an object nor a means to an end, his views changed the day he met his beautiful fated. The first time they met it was pure coincidence, the second brought intrigue and the third was destiny. Noah thanked fate when his fated left the bathroom in nothing but her towel. There is a study he read that said: 'if you wish something
ALEX'S P. O. V"Are you sure you are fine?"Noah continues to fuss over her as if shes some fragile omega, she is an omega but this man did not know that. Noah leaned in for a kiss but she held her hand to stop the kiss from connecting and he smiles up at him."Yesss. It does not hurt that bad anymore. Sorry for- you know for being rude earlier... You know the whole me being a raging bitch thing."She forgot she lied about the excruciating pain, she just wanted aspirin and coke without questions. Let's not forget the amount of time she spent panicking in the bathroom, she just realized how fertile she was and was stupid enough to not have protected sex. She mentally kicked herself taking doubled dosage of the suppressant pill and spent the rest of the morning packing before watching Tiktoks on the bed. The coke and aspirin in some cases can be used as an efficient morning after pill, drinking both wa
ALEX'S P.O.V "Your parents are very nice." "Come here." Noah pulled her into his embrace, stroking his hair gently before planting a kiss on her forehead. "They are friendly. Warning my mother has a way of getting into someone's head. Stay with me for a while. She is a psychiatrist, a good one. I love her to bits but she is like an unrelenting dog when she sees someone she wants to fix, in a sense. I do not want her to scare you off so please, promise not to leave my side." Nodding. Not because She was terrified of opening up but because of the concern and love in his gaze. "Ready?" "No, but let us go downstairs." . Noah's family is significantly way more richer than she imagined, normal (far from dysfunctional), close and very lively. Now She gets why Noah is always happy or making stupid jokes, there is always someone that gets his way of thinking here and she laughed because they got each others jokes. Although he is future alpha he treated the help with respect. This famil
NOAH'S P. O. V He knew Axx might be nervous in fact he prays to the Goddess of fate to be listening... He did not want his family to screw up the absolute best thing to have ever bumped into him. Their relationship was new and the grounds it stood progressed into something mind braving. She trusts him. Which means his beautiful fated must feel the same way he feels. Yesterday in the throes of passion, he remembers so clearly how his fated bit him (like a love bite). A claim from her is at best marking her territory not to even mention the scratch marks that raked down my back... Of course her bite is not as life changing as his would. His relationship with his fated is getting to the point he wish it to reach and he just hopes his family does not screw that up for him but the fact his fated is still here confirms everything he feels about him. His leaving Axx side due to his father pure manipulation. How dare his father manipulate his beautiful, sweet, gullible fated mate? Maybe it
ALEX'S P. O. V Noah left. He is gone. Did she do something wrong? Why is she being emotional? They had unprotected sex once. Fuck. No. She cannot risk getting pregnant by having unprotected sex again. She explained the whole blood situation and he was really indifferent about the disgust she expected was replace by love as well as concern. Argh, why does this man love her? She should have probably kept the whole tidbit of information to herself, that would have brought her more time to think of solutions to her current problem at hand. Basically she hasn't been 'intimate' with anyone for like more than three years and when she was intimate, her hymen did not stretch. Since she was intimate with Noah her hymen must have stretched enough to break causing the embarrassing sight this morning. So technically the person that broke her hymen is the same person that just left her alone in a big ass room. That selfish jerk left her alone with her thoughts... What if they do not work out? Tha
NOAH'S P. O. V Alex usually takes forever getting ready for anything so he used Logan's bathroom to shower and change for bed. He got downstairs to see his mother patiently waiting for him to walk to her. "Mom." "How is she?" His mother pulled a seat out for him and he took it releasing a burdened sigh. "Why can I feel her emotions as of they are my own?" "Because she's unaware that she's projecting. Son you have found you fated now, you have to take responsibility and be responsible." "Mom, in case you haven't noticed she tames my wolf before she even realized she did. I have developed feelings beyond our fated bond and I've never been so lost." "She's a troubled one indeed... This is your story son. I know that I've raised you right." "You know." His mother smiles and rests her hand on his. Perhaps Alex told his mom about her previous pack and as that thought popped up her face changed to that of pity. This is how she would look at him when he failed to get some answers rig
GAB'S P. O. V "Here." He directed Toby and his friend. "This is Alex. Alex this is Gabriella but everyone calls her Gab." She never wished to give Toby a bad name ever, even amongst his friends so she willed her life to behave. She politely smiled, shaking her delicate hand. It was clear as day this omega is super high on suppressants. How do they stand the scent? Why is she taking such large dosages of suppressants? Does she not have her alpha? There are cases she has witnessed where pimps would force their sex workers to drink the drug, to of course avoid pregnancies. She was not part of the crowd but her friend was. Eventually the scent blocker became something she avoided, that drug was a reminder of a life she was grateful she was saved from. She did not want to say anything or ask in case she does have a reason to hide her nature. Everyone has to have a reason to do anything, right. Like my reason to visit Zoe as her sister, a sister that trusted an entire pack to do what
LEO'S P.O.V Everything was going well until it did not and it did not the day Jayden bit him. They are still very much interested in each other, in all aspects of the word but they grow distant as if something crucial is missing. Leo feels wrong being with his mate and there are times when he has this terrible thought that tells him this emptiness is not worth it. That he must master up all his strength and run far, very far away so that this feelings can evaporate. He knows that his logic is nonsensical, they are fated mates now and they took a literal term to 'to death do them part'. That was his decision to commit which means there's no escape from all these feelings and that knowledge is enough to make him want to cry. There are days he wanted to leave his dammed beloved. Oh, goddess of fate forgiveness but it is nothing bad he just contemplated it. Okay, it does not help him if he keep contemplating his decisions. It does not help that he keeps overthinking his situation more
LEO'S P. O. V"Happy anniversary!"A very confused Jayden walked in, exchanged his shoes for indoor flats and stared dumbly at Leo. It was yet to ring a bell."It is our first f*ckerversary. We were not together so for the years this date passed, I just let it slide but now look. Cake!"He said with a smile wide, his focus evenly distributed between the man before him and the sweetness of the cake he baked. It is not the best looking cake ever and probably tastes like diabetes more than anything. His not sure if homemade cake should give you the heartburn his currently experiencing. Jayden wouldn't judge him harshly for the thought and effort his lover put on this, cake? Okay yes, he sucks at cooking but he really worked hard on making the white covered icing cake with a 'Happy F*ckerversary' elegantly written.*This is a special moment to him that called for a major celebration in his life and of course it did not go without warning from his fathers. It is not like his going throug
ALEX'S P.O.V Self-pity, embarrassment and shame override her entire being. What the fuck is wrong with her, with her dammed nature? How the fuck did she not know? How the fuck did she not sense it? Why did her body betray her this way? She literally took suppressants not so long ago, why is this happening now to her? She huffed hands clasping the sink and she prayed the Earth have pity on her and swallow her whole. It is her body, how could she not detect the changes. She has never willingly been intimate with someone before Noah. Perhaps that is why she naturally thought the increase in her sex drive was due to the raging endorphins spurring her hormones. Argh! Common, she should have known better. She should have been able to treat every changes in his own body as they come. For goodness sake she is the damned doctor with extraordinary capabilities and she couldn't get that right? How foolish she has been indulging her uncontrollable, insatiable, irresponsible parts of herself. S
ALEX'S P. O. V"Alex girl, what took you so long? Noah."She got out and hugged Lucas and Toby. Is she at peace with the relationship? No. But she's trying to be more open to this world and she's trying to be a better friend. Her action of getting out off the car sprung up a simple question she was not yet ready to get into, right now."Alex what is this?"Shit. She literary forgot she had the bag in her hand that Toby's wolf would recognize, if he ever used it. She faked a smile dropping the bag in the front seat, as the alphas took the bags. She looks down at the fairly frozen ice cream which she handed to Toby."I don't know if you like ice cream but I've eaten so much ice cream."Without answering she jumped in the car trying to come up with a story, it's unfortunate she knows that Toby is not one to easily drop things."Thank you. Do you have a spoon? Oh and you didn't answer my question."She handed him a disposal spoon. Her avoiding answering the questionis now raising attentio
ALEX'S P.O.V "Come child." Mrs Zheng directed them to a bench and she faced her with a frustratingly unreadable facial expression. She pulled out a small bag and placed it on her hand, she took it confused as to why she was handed her this. "This is green tea mixed with ancient herbs and this helps with scent and these are the ones you chew on when you get 'stressed'." She smiled at her with so much understanding that her brain failed to register what just happened. "Huh? Wait. These are..." "Suppressants. Don't worry Xing took Noah downstairs and I cleared the yard before you got here." Huh? What? What is going on right now? She's restless and a dark part of her circled contemplating. [Finally. Now we can come out to our mate-] [SHUT UP.] She jumped not expecting the new foreign dialogue, why is she helping her deceive her son? "Hun, your scent is faint but we picked it up... I am not sure if Noah knows but you must be keeping it a secret for a reason so I am handing you th
Two days Later... ALEX'S P.O.V They were all packed up and ready to leave his family home and head back to human civilization. She definitely enjoyed staying here for as long as she did, the only family shes had for a couple of years are just Lucas and Leo. Its beautiful to be a part of a functional family for as long as she did, the people are more respectful and her wolf did not help by considering this home. She looked up at the perfect view of the woods, pack schools, play grounds and the most beautiful sunset. . . . NOAH'S P.O.V "I will miss seeing the sunset. Your family is really nice and I will especially miss eating unlimited ice cream for free." They laughed and Noah brought her closer to his embrace, he rested his chin on top of her head. He loves this, they watched every sunset since they have been here. He is delighted she likes Blue, for some inexplicable reason he really wanted Axx to view it as home. He kissed his fated mates cheek and for a few moments just to
