Chapter 7
Returning Home Jax POV: Watching Nova put Alpha Axton and his new Luna in their place was strangely satisfying, and to see her display of strength made my wolf and I a bit too excited that we go carried away by hugging her. “She is going to be such an asset for our pack* Zeus admired to me. “Yes she is, but first and foremost let’s help her settle into the pack, it’s going to be a big adjustment I’m sure” I say back to him. “How are you both doing?” I ask the ladies as we leave the territory behind. “I’m strangely quite alright” Alice smiles at me in the mirror, “I couldn’t have stayed there under Axton as Alpha and he knew that, Nova will always be my Luna.” She adds on with a large smile. “And you Miss Nova?” I ask looking at her in the passenger seat, aware of her title change. “Just Nova now Alpha” she says with a small smile, “I could have done without the drama at the end but it’s done now, although I can’t lie, it was nice to remind Axton who the real strength was in the pack” she adds with a tin ker of a laugh. “I found it thoroughly entertaining” I can’t help but grin at her, “now I know you both have announced yourselves as rogues so your scent is beginning to change. I have already spoken to my Beta and explained the situation over the past few days, he has the initiation trinket set up in my office ready for when we arrive if that is ok with you both.” “Thank you Alpha” they both murmur at me. “Nova I have your pills here ready for you to take” Alice says quietly to her reaching her hand over to pass them to her friend. “Thank you Alice” Nova murmurs as she takes a swig of water and swallows them quickly. Seeing my intrigued look she explains, “it’s to help with the awakening of my wolf. Obviously I can shift but I did mention to you how when I turn 25 she will truly be awakened. Over the last few months she has grownAll text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
considerably and doesn’t seem to be slowing so this is to help with the shifting pains, I can shift incredibly
||| Returning Home quick and quietly however the pain is increasing each time. I’ve been reassured that it is what humans refer to as “growing pains” and we refer to them as “shifting pains” similar to those of our first shift which makes sense, once I turn 25 and Kia is her true self I’m confident they will stop.” “Kia?” I ask quietly. With a large smile Nova turns to me, her cheeks flushing happily, “my wolf, I call her Ki and she allows those close to her to call her that. But Kia is her true name. It actually means mountain which I always found amusing being the Luna of the White Mountain Pack, now I believe it’s down to her sheer size being a she wolf” so laughs. “It’s funny, I’m so petite and well, ki is definitely not. I’m not quite sure how we are one.” “Beautiful name” I hear Zeus purr in my mind as I can’t help but smile and agree. Realising I haven’t felt this comfortable around a woman in a long time has me lost in thought and before I know it we are pulling up to my pack ground gates. Seeing the guards wave in greeting I raise my hand as we roll through the entrance, pulling up at the pack house I see my Beta Laurence waiting for us. Stepping out I walk round and open the ladies doors extending a hand to both of them, “welcome to the Midnight Sky Pack house” I say with pride. Seeing them both gazing up at the pack house in admiration they then turn to me as Alice squeals, “it’s stunning!” “Thank you” I say graciously, “this houses the Alpha, Beta family and my two Gam mas, we also have guest quarters for those visiting the pack. For now we have a suite prepared for you each here, in the future if you would like a house it can be arranged.” I add on almost reluctant in my admission of them
potentially moving. As we move to the front steps Laurence extends his hand to Nova first bowing his head respectfully, “it’s lovely to meet you Miss Nova, welcome to the Midnight Sky pack.” Turning his attention to Alice he does the same, “I have asked my mate Naomi to ready some food for us all to enjoy. If you wish I can show you to your suites to freshen up before hand?”/ “That would be lovely Beta, thank you” Nova sweetly says. “But please, Nova is fine. I may have been a Luna previously but here I’m just Nova.” 2/4 Returning Home “Of course Nova, if you’d both please follow me I’ll show you upstairs” he gestures for them to follow. “Thank you for your help this morning Alpha, will we see you for lunch?” Nova turns to ask me. “Of course, I’ll see you both there. I hope you like your suites” I smile at them as I turn to go meet my Ga mmas at the training grounds. “Best let Naomi know you’ll be joining us for once” I hear my Beta link me with mischief in his tone. “I’m hungry” I link back defensively. “Sure it has nothing to do with this gorgeous woman I’m currently showing to the Luna suite?” He laughs. “The least we can do is offer her comfort and support, that suite is most similar to what she had previously” I once again defend my decisions although I’m unsure as to why. “See you at lunch Boss” he links back cheekily. Shaking my head laughing him off I quickly head down to the training grounds where I can see my warriors sparring hard. Gesturing Ga mma Theo over I wait for him to reach me. “How’s it been going since I’ve been gone?” I ask authoritatively. “Good Alpha, the warriors have been training hard. I’ve had them continue both in Wolf forms and human. We have had two new shifts since your departure and I’m happy to report they have settled into training well. I did let them know you would issue a pack run when convenient to welcome their wolves, they were understanding as to wait for you.”
“That’s great! Who shifted?” I enquire. “My cousin Annabelle and a young man called Mathew. Annabelle is light grey Wolf with a front right black paw and Mathew is a brilliant fiery red wolf, he’s quite amazing to look at in the sun to be honest” he admires. “Well I’ll announce a pack run after dinner this evening, it would also be nice to welcome Nova and Alice to our pack with a run.” I muse. 3/4 Returning Home “Ah yes I’ve heard we have two new pack members, how are they both?” He asks whilst keeping an eye on some members training in-front of us. “Good, Laurence is showing them to their suites and we will be having lunch shortly. I’d like for you and Florence to join us please” I add on. “We will be there, Alpha if you may excuse me i must carry on with the training session” he happily says bowing his head before turning and jogging over to the wolves nearest. Hearing him praise them both before suggesting a couple of small adjustments I smile happily seeing my pack running smoothly. “Let’s head back and do some paperwork before lunch” I sigh to Zeus. “Rest time for me” he growls back at me playfully making me roll my eyes.
