JENNAI took a shower and hid in my room. It pained me to admit but the thought of Jason in my home, in my sanctuary definitely altered my brain chemistry. I had no idea how I was going to deal with him. So I chose the easy way out and hid in my room.Julia informed me they were all settled in.I couldn’t let him book a hotel room for the guys and himself, from what I understood by his statement.We don’t know how long they are staying for. Though I am praying it wouldn’t be long.I wanted him gone because his presence was messing me up. I couldn’t wait to go back to my old life. So the earlier the better.And we’ll work faster by staying in the house to gather. It was big enough that they’ll be comfortable and I’ll not feel like they were intruding in my space.My main problem was him, and hopefully with the guys, I didn’t have to worry about running into him most of the day.My room was on the second floor, along with the nursery.When the triplets were younger. We stayed in the roo
JASONThe doorbell rings, causing Jenna to get up and go open it herself.We were sitting together, both lost in our thoughts. After breakfast, the guys said they wanted to go into town for sightseeing but I chose to stay back. I couldn't tell you why.I’ve learnt more things about her since last night that we arrived. She had a cook, a cleaner and a driver. All of them don’t live in the house with her, which made me wonder how she managed when the kids were still here.She seemed okay. She made sure the guys felt like they were at home.She has known most of them all her life.I didn’t know if that treated her the way the rest of the pack did. She didn’t look like she held anything against them. She was nice and hospitable, and did everything to make sure they felt comfortable.When she came back, there were two women by her side, a man and two little boys. I wasn’t prepared for the onslaught of emotions I felt when the boys got close.They watched me from a distance, not sure if the
JASON“I was very close to sending out a search party for you.”Was the first thing said when I picked up the call. I decided I couldn’t avoid her forever. And if I wanted her to understand this, then the best thing wouldn’t be to ignore her.I should give her no reasons to think she has to worry.When in truth, you know you don’t like her even a little bit. You’re going to ruin more lives and save none.I shook my head, focusing on what I’m currently doing. Answering the call of my fiancé, the same fiancé I’ve been ghosting for the past few days.I assured her that everything was fine and I was fine.“I’ve gone out of town for a little emergency,”I heard silence on the other end. It made me think she didn’t hear so I repeated myself.“No, I heard you the first time.” She goes quiet again. “I’m just surprised you’re just telling me.”My forehead creased. I ignored the voice in my head telling me I owed her no explanation. Even if I didn’t, it is common courtesy to tell her something
JENNAI had no idea how just speaking with Jason started to make me feel things I haven’t felt in years.I couldn’t force myself to bring my hands down. Somehow feeling insecure of how I looked.I wasn’t as I used to be. Even if I hadn’t gained much weight after birth. My body was different. Nothing like how I was when we were teenagers.Of course, I was different. I’m twenty five and I had kids.Why was I even thinking of how I looked? Jason isn’t going to see me that way ever again.He is engaged to be married. And I’m focused on my business and kids.Telling myself that definitely didn’t stop the flood of warmth I was feeling everywhere. Or the tingle in my core.I had almost forgotten that part of my body existed for something beyond the basic functions.One day with Jason, and it was already remembering other things it shouldn’t. He should be the last man I should find interest in.My wolf doesn’t contribute to that argument, which I don’t blame her for. While he gutted her with
JENNAThe sheriff visited and he and Jason spoke. He told him of the progress they have made—which isn’t much. Jason made it clear he was ready to do whatever to get the kids back.I know it is the barest minimum but it still made me feel butterflies. I was glad he isn’t letting whatever is happening between us get in the way of him doing the right thing.“We have it handled, you can go.”I looked up at Jason a little surprised. I didn’t even hear him enter. Last I heard, he was in a meeting with someone I’m not sure I know.“Holy cow. That’s your baby daddy?” Claire’s surprised gasp reminds me of her presence and what we were discussing.“I’m Jason, nice to meet you.” Jason stretched his hand out for her to shake.She jumps up from the seat, almost tipping the glass of water she’d been drinking. She grasped his hands with enthusiasm, smiling widely.I rolled my eyes, looking away from them.“And I am Claire. The pleasure is all mine, handsome.” She says in a flirty voice.I knew she
JASONI don’t know what I was thinking when I invited Jenna to come out for a walk with me. She shocked me even more by saying yes.“Give me a second to wear something else.” She pointed to the baggy shirt she’d been wearing.I swallowed thickly, seeing the outline of her tits from the light material. She doesn’t like wearing bras at home. One of the things I’ve noticed hasn't changed about her.I could remember our childhood days, where she would rather wear sports bras. And that too it's only when we’re training.I stood on the foyer until she appeared. Now wearing a bra, thankfully and track pants. I wasn’t sure I would be able to keep my eyes off her when we were outside.My wolf might grow possessive and hit someone if they dared look at her.No matter how much I told him she wasn’t ours. He found that hard to understand. If anything, he started fighting me for control.Her changing was the best.“This place is nice.” I commented a moment later.We’ve been walking for a while now
JENNAMy heart thunders in my chest, matching the erratic beat of Jason’s. His hold is tight against me but he doesn’t move. I mirror the stillness of his body. Hating that I notice just how perfectly our bodies fit against each other.Even in this awkward position. It wasn’t hard to miss.I felt Jason grow rigid but he doesn’t move, he doesn’t release me either.I’m not seeing anything that is happening but someone was walking towards us. Maybe two people from the sound of multiple footsteps.“Did you get her?” A whispered voice asks.“Both of them.”I didn’t know what they were talking about, but I’m guessing it is the reason Jason started feeling dizzy. They didn’t touch me though.God, I hope he is better now. I don’t think I can fight off two men, especially if they are wolves.“What should we do now?” The second voice asks this time.They are standing over us. Their shadow looms over us, making the place dark as they were hiding us from the setting sun.“Take them I guess. What
JASONI knew the sheriff was only doing his job. But he still annoyed the fuck out of me. And he was driving slow as hell. To make matters worse.Jenna didn’t seem as pissed as I did. Which is a good thing at least. I didn’t want her worrying about this. And thankfully, they didn’t hit her with whatever they did to me.I’ll need to go to the doctor and make sure it wasn’t anything dangerous. There are a few drugs that could cause real damage to wolves. And right now, we couldn’t handle any type of weakness or errors.We gave our statements and he assured us that he’ll keep in touch and let us know whatever they find out. Jenna thanked him when he offered to drive us home. Saying we’ll catch a cab. I didn’t know why she said that but I didn't ask either. Trusting she knew what she was doing.We walked out of the station side my side. The more my hand brushed hers, the more I felt the need to take her hand in mine and just hold it close to me. Not knowing how she’ll react to that made m
