Nova POV:
“I know we’ve had a lot going on love but tomorrow is going to be amazing” Jax says as he feeds me a
delicious dessert. Moaning in pleasure his eyes darken slightly before he clears his throat, “those
sounds” he mutters as I giggle.
“I’m excited for tomorrow, as soon as I’d finished work today it’s all I’ve been able to think about” I
admit. “I was just speaking to Naomi about it.”
“I asked her to hold you up” Jax smirks.
I
“Oh” I laugh, “well I enjoyed it. Was nice to just relax and have a chat, I used to make sure I spent time
with Alice and other pack members. Having a balance is important isn’t it.”
“We can make sure you do here as well” Jax assures me.
“I will don’t worry, but at the moment we have more pressing matters” I say with a
small smile.
“How are you feeling after this week?” Jax asks.
“Relieved, conflicted, worried but also confident in a way” I reply with a shrug. Seeing him raise a brow
I explain a bit further, “relieved because we managed to find the
traitors and gain some more information. Seeing Rose be convicted was a relief, but I have to admit
I’ve been worried about my old pack. I’m conflicted because I’m aware of the danger I’m bringing to
those around me but I know I couldn’t do this without
you and many others. But confident because I know now that I have a family to support me, an
amazing mate and a pack that will motivate me to always be my best.
“Amazing mate huh” Jax says with a wink.
“I said all that and that’s what you picked up on?” I ask chuckling.
Smirking he nods before replying slightly more serious, “I get why you’re feeling all those emotions,
plus I’ve been able to feel how you’re feeling remember. But it’s all perfectly understandable. You’re
handling it amazing though love.””
O
I’m worried about my mum” I admit quietly seeing his eyes soften at my words.
“I know” he says softly, his deep voice soothing. “Conditioning can be reversed though, don’t give up
hope.”
“It’s not just that” I explain, “even if we can reverse the conditioning and get her true self back, what’s to
say she’s going to forgive us? Even now we are putting off getting her..and for what?”
“So you’d rather go hunt for your mother blind and without any clue as to where she is?” Jax says with
a pointed look.
“No” I sigh in defeat.
“Gaining information is important, not just for your safety but for everyb*dy involved. Having some
insight into what waits for us is better than nothing” he says resting his large hand over mine. Nodding
my head I know he’s right but I can’t ignore the guilt I’m feeling.
“Nova your mother is alive, that’s more than what you ever imagined until a few weeks ago. We will get
her back and then we can address if she is ready to forgive everything that has happened” Jax says
quietly. “As much as I hate to say this I doubt it will be you that your mother will struggle with.”
“Dad” I sigh feeling sorry for him.
“Yeah” Jax admits. “We know he was tricked and it was done to hurt your mother, but as his mate she
will feel betrayed. I’m sure in time she will come to realise, and if we can get proof of what your
grandparents did to him it will help hugely.”
I
“You’re right” I say lifting my lips slightly at his logical thinking.
We sit in comfortable silence for a few minutes enjoying the wine before he speaks again.
“I do have one thing that’s been n ig g ling me” he admits.
“What is it?” I ask.
“The spell Rose apparently had put on the tea for me..was that from the same witch she was involved
with to fool Axton?” He asks with furrowed brows.
“We didn’t find out did we say with a sigh. “I can’t believe that slipped my mind.”

“Mine too” he says with a shrug. “What do you think though?”
Taking a breath I ponder over his question, Rose was desperate and naive. Going to
lows that shocked me, but she also appeared to have multiple options depending on outcomes. “I think
it was a back up.
“It makes sense” Jax says slowly.
“Well if you think about it, Axton made it perfectly clear whilst we were there for that
visit that he wasn’t happy with how she was conducting things around the pack. She
must have sensed things weren’t going well and they clearly didn’t expect us to find
one another so soon. The plan was for me to somehow end up with Alpha Jacob…not
you” I explain. “So I think she needed to try and get between us.”
“Yeah I think you’re right Nova” he says with a small smile. “Either way she’s the past
now. It was just something I realised we didn’t ask her.”
“Well let’s concentrate on the future for the time being” I say with a light chuckle.
“Oh it’s all I’ve been thinking about” he says with a wide smile as he leans back on his
chair. “I can’t wait for you to officially be known as this packs Luna.”
“Naomi did say you were very happy doing your paperwork today” I say with an
amused smile.
“I was” he shrugs, “knowing I have none to do tomorrow and instead we have the
ceremony put me in very high spirits.”
Standing up I put the dishes to the side carefully and finish my wine as Jax watches
me. Moving over I straddle him and grind myself slowly over him feeling him harden
quickly beneath me.
“Care to show me how happy you felt today?” I whisper as I bite his lobe lightly
making him moan slightly.
Pulling back I see his eyes dark as he grins at me, “do you really need to ask?”
Shrugging I bite my lip before leaning forward pushing my breasts into him. “I’m ready for you
whenever, wherever” he says huskily as he holds my hips still so he can press
his bulge into my core.
Whimpering slightly as I feel my panties grow wet he smirks before pulling me down

and claims my lips with his own in a hungry k*ss.
Pushing into him just as passionately he stands holding my as s as I wrap my legs
around him. Lowering me gently onto the bed he hovers over me gazing at me with pure affection
blazing in his eyes. “I’m so lucky you’re mine” he whispers as he slides
my top off of me before sitting up and pulling his over his chest.
“D amn” I whisper as I stare at his broad shoulders and defined 6pack. Flicking my
tongue out I wet my lips as I reach up and pull him back down.
“Tonight is about us” he murmurs in my ear making me shiver, “and I’m going to show
you just how much you mean to me my Luna.”
With those words I surrender to his touch excited for the pleasure I know he’s going
to bring me.
