Filed to story: The Alpha’s Defiant Mate Novel >>

Jay-la POV

Kora nearly stumbled over her own feet as a Mate call was unleashed upon her, loud and aggressive, something that could not be ignored. She skidded to a stop and turned to see who it was. Havoc was running straight at her, he had not stopped as Kora had, ‘Mate,’ she whispered, backing up slowly as he came straight at her.

‘No.’ Jay-la could not believe it, this couldn’t be right, she had seen this wolfs human with her own two eyes, been no more than a meter away from him, only a desk between herself and Havoc’s human counterpart. She didn’t believe it. But she knew it to be true. Kora knew it was true.

Havoc stopped right in front of them, he smelled so good, like the smell of rain just before it fell, with a hint of oak and cinnamon. He was her mate. But why hadn’t she know it then, but knew it now?

‘Kora be careful he will mate you.’ Jay-la murmured to her wolf, though she already knew Kora was going to let him, for weeks now she’d had this lingering feeling of Havoc in her mind, and that howl she had let out tonight, had told him she was lonely and didn’t want to be apart from the pack anymore, she wanted to come home. Kora would not reject the father of their pups, not now. He was her goddess-gifted Mate.

Havoc’s behaviour towards Kora surprised Jay-la, although he had come racing after her and she fully expected him to just aggressively mate the hell out of her wolf on the spot, he didn’t. He was being gentle with her, a little playful and quite loving. He purred at Kora, and she purred right back.

‘ Well, now what do we do?’

‘play.’ Kora piped up and suddenly bit the end of Havoc’s tail, then hit him in the face with her tail and ran off, though Jay-la knew she was not running to get away, she was running to have him chase her. It was what wolves did when mating, playing with each other. There was no stopping it, Kora was not about to give up control even if Jay-la asked her too. So she didn’t just stayed in the back of Kora’s mind quiet and let her be with her Mate.

She had no idea how she was going to deal with his human counterpart, or even what Nathan thought this very minute, didn’t want to know, needed time to try and process everything. Nothing made sense to her at the moment. Shouldn’t she have been able to scent him out when in his office? Or he her, for that matter, he must be as shocked as she was.

The only good thing she guessed was that Havoc was never going to let him hurt her, or punish her, so there was some safety in that. She would have to wait and see. It appeared he either had no control of Havoc at all or he was just allowing them to bond and mate as she was. Jay-la had no idea, was too confused at this point.

She sighed, Kora and Havoc ran about playing and mating each other many times. Kora was so happy, Jay-la didn’t think she had ever felt her this happy, right this minute she was running at will through her own pack, with her Mate, knowing her pups were safely tucked up in their beds.

Havoc was her Mate.

Jay-la’s train of thought suddenly changed. If Nathan was her Mate, that would make her…the future Luna.

Her mind moved to being here in the pack today. She’d been placed in the Luna Suite. Jackson had asked her if she’d rather he put her in the Alpha’s Suite? That couldn’t be a coincidence. Surely not. Had stated Nathan would kill him if he’d put her in his bed, Jackson had even joked about Nathan wanting to punish her in the fun way. That bastard knew, oh he was going to die.

They all knew she suddenly realised, which meant Nathan also knew and had informed all of them, but why had he not told her that day, something else was going on, maybe he didn’t want her? That one thought brought pain to her heart, she had to stop thinking about it, focused on nothing. Just sat back there in Kora’s mind and watched them and tried desperately to keep her fears at bay.

She had no idea of how long Kora and Havoc played and mated, just that at some point she could see the pack house coming into view, the show-down she had been dreading was coming, at least it wasn’t going to be done with her children around. Did she even want to talk to him right now? She didn’t know.

‘He’s your Mate, he will not hurt you Jay-la.’ Kora piped up, speaking to her for the first time since finding out Havoc was her mate.

‘He was so angry, Kora. You didn’t see it.’ she sighed.

‘Maybe you misunderstood it. Havoc wants us, trust in him’

Havoc strolled right into the pack house and, to her surprise, so did Kora. Wolves didn’t usually come into the pack house, shifted outside, then came in. They were headed for the alpha’s office. She shivered as she recalled the last time she was in there. ‘It’ll be okay.’ Kora said softly.

She watched as Jackson opened the door and stood aside while Havoc strolled into the office without a care in the world. Kora followed him, he was her Mate and she was going wherever he went.

She heard the door close behind her and heard him shift ‘wait.’ she begged Kora, she wasn’t ready.

Didn’t even know if she could do this. A large part of her was filled with fear and wanted to run, right out of this office, she could feel Kora’s resistance to the thought she was having.

He was standing in front of her now, completely naked, watching her wolf. She had not shifted as he had done, he had probably expected her to, she realised.

Kora was happy to look at his naked body, her head tilted as she assessed him completely from head to toe, he chuckled at her wolf. Then he walked over to her and hunkered down ‘How about I put some clothes on, huh.’ he smiled right at her and ran his hands over her head and scratched behind her ears for a minute, making Kora purr. ‘You got bigger I see.’ his tone was light and playful ‘But still very pretty.’ a hint of seductiveness could be heard in his tone.

He winked right at her, then stood and walked off. She turned and watched him ‘I might just eat him myself.’ she murmured to Jay-la playfully. ‘see he is not mad at us.’

Jay-la sighed, he’d didn’t appear mad, but she could only recall the last time she’d seen him. Kora had not been with her, she hadn’t seen it. Couldn’t understand what she had felt or seen that day.
