The Claiming By Cooper

Chapter 110

The Council by Cooper (Jara & Mason)

Mason

I’m not surprised that the pack is excited to know that not only is Jara possibly pregnant but that two other she-wolves are joining our pack.

Title of the document

First, we all know the value of having pups. But the possibility of being pregnant so soon after she was claimed is a big accomplishment and only shows the strength of the bond between me and Jara. Joe and Stella took years to have a pup, and they now have a son. It’s great, and I’m happy for them, but one pup for our entire pack isn’t enough. One pup per couple isn’t going to help us repopulate our numbers. So yeah, Jara potentially being pregnant already is big deal.

It says a lot that Mignon and Hana are pregnant as well. Hopefully, it means that this group of she- wolves will be happy in their relationships and will be able to produce several pups, hopefully with most of them being females.

And, the second part of their excitement is that the more females we have, the more we know they are safe. My pack takes the lives of she-wolves very seriously, knowing the impact not having them has had on our pack. But it will also be nice to have another pup around. And not just a pup, a female pup. She may possibly become the princess of the pack in a very short amount of time.

I’ll have to have a talk with Luke and his mate. I don’t know what type of environment they came from in Alpha Shawn’s pack, but here, my pack members will want to be around them, but with no ill intent. I

don’t know if Luke’s mate was a ranked member, but any female pup has the potential to have an impact on our pack members. Nothing like the impact that Jara is having, but still something positive.

As I take Jara’s hand to lead her to our bedroom to shower, I turn to Lewis.

“Lewis, meet me in my office in an hour.” I tell him. His eyes go wide, and he looks over at Jara quickly before looking back.

“Yes, Alpha.”

“It’s not about you sparring with my mate.” I tell him. “Although if and when we find out that Jara is carrying my pup, sparring with my mate will be off limits.”

“Yes, Alpha.” My field of warriors says. I probably didn’t have to say it, but the protective side of me needed to.

I take Jara upstairs and we shower together. I didn’t think through the timing of the meeting with Lewis. I don’t have time to take care of my mate like she likes, but there’s a thing called a ‘quickie’ and I introduced her to it before we got out of the shower.

She pouted of course, wanting my knot.

“Look, you insatiable woman, I’ll give you what you want tonight when we have plenty of time.”

“Promise?” She says, giving me a sultry look, while she tosses her towel aside and stands gloriously n*ake*d in front of me.

I growl as desire races through my body, heading south. “Have I ever denied you anything?” I say, pulling her against me, letting her feel how much I want her again already.

“You’re denying me right now.” She says, pouting.

“Okay, your choice, get f*uc*ked and knotted by your mate until you’re hoarse from screaming my name, or Lewis gets his interview about being your guard.” I say, knowing what her answer will be.

She smacks my chest. “That’s not fair. You know I can’t deny him.”

“Neither can I, love.” I kiss her forehead and slide my lips to her ear. “So, I’ll f*uc*k you until you’re screaming my name and give you my knot as many times as you can take it tonight. Deal?” I whisper, feeling the shiver of excitement run through her body at my words.

“I love how you negotiate, Alpha.”

“I love how you can’t get enough of me.” I tell her, nipping at her neck before licking my mate mark, making her shiver again.

“Now, get dressed, I want to introduce you to Luke’s mate and child at dinner.” I say, turning her toward the closet and smacking her a*s*s to get her moving. She does, but not without making me regret my decision to wait until tonight to have her. She walks slowly toward the closet, her round hips swaying as she goes, making my d*ic*k go from semi- hard to standing at full attention. When she gets to the closet door, she turns, looking at me over her shoulder.

“I can’t wait to have that for dessert later.” She says, pointing to my d*ic*k, her s*e*xy eyes dark with desire making me ache to be inside her again.

I growl at her again but she just smirks at me before walking into the closet. Damn that woman will be the death of me.

After getting dressed, I head to my office. I leave the door open and move to my desk. When he gets there, Lewis knocks on the doorjamb.

“Lewis, come in and close the door.”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

He does and I gesture him to a seat as I come around my desk to sit in a chair across from him.

“How are you doing, Lewis?” I ask and I can see that he’s nervous, not sure why he’s been called to my office.

“I’m good Alpha.” He takes a deep breath, before looking up at me. “I’m better with Luna Jara here.”

“I’ve noticed, so have Elijah and Jara.”

“Oh.” He says, still nervous.

“Which is why I called you to my office. Jara noticed that while we were gone, the symptoms of feral- fever seemed to increase with you.”

He nods, looking down.

“Yes, Alpha. But it’s better now that she’s back.” He rushes to tell.

“That’s what she told me too. And she’s worried about you.”

That brings his head back up. “She is?”

“She is. And she has asked if she could include you as one of her guards when she goes to a neighboring pack this weekend.”

He blinks. “She wants me to be her guard?”

“She does but I need to know, Lewis, that my mate will be safe with you. I need to know that if something were to happen that you would be there to protect her. Alpha Typhon is still out there, and I guarantee that he will try to come for her at some point. Anyone that I put on guard duty for my Luna has to be willing to do whatever it takes if she’s attacked. That means giving your life if needed.”

“I would do that for Luna Jara. I would be honored to give my life for my Luna, and she has done so much for me already, she and her mother. I didn’t realize how close I’d come to going feral until they got here. Now, I know what to look for. I knew it was getting worse while she was gone.”

“I wouldn’t just be sending you. Her guard at the claiming, warrior Luke, will be going to. We can use this as a test run, Lewis. If you do well, I will consider making you a permanent member of Luna Jara’s guard.”

His eyes go wide. It’s a great honor to be considered worthy enough to guard your pack’s Luna, arguably the most important member of the pack.

“I won’t let you down, Alpha Mason, you or Luna Jara.”

“Luke will be in charge. He has the knowledge, so you will follow his lead. He will report back to me and based on that, we’ll decide.”

“Thank you, Alpha. I appreciate this opportunity.”

After he leaves, I go to find my mate. It’s time to meet Luke’s mate and their daughter.
