JESS POV
I headed to my room and quickly took the morning after pill. There's no way I'm getting pregnant with everything going on. I'm not ready for that.
I then decide to head for the lounge. Not only that, but I need some alone time to think. But I want out of this bedroom at the same time.
When I reach the lounge I'm relieved to see its empty I take on the sofa by the window. Out of view from others.
I think about what Rita said. Could I really be a human Luna? Can I really live my life like this? Do I want to? Part of me wants to stay with Jack. I think I'm falling in love with him. But it's everything else that's bothering me the most.
Then I remember Rita said about Lola.
I quickly get my phone out and send a message
Hey Lola, its Jess Rita said you would be expecting to hear from me. I wonder if you had a moment to chat. Not only that, but I figured if anyone knows how I'm feeling it would be you. I'd appreciate your help. From Jess
A few minutes pass before I hear PING
Hey Jess so glad you got in contact. Would you like me to ring you, or we could talk in person if you like?
I quickly reply
I'd love to meet you. When would you be free?
PING
How about tomorrow. Mick and I are free. Mick is good mates with Jack. So we shall surprise him. Don't say anything we will come to you around 11am. Is that okay?
I quickly reply again.
That's fine. I won't say anything. I look forward to meeting you
PING
Excellent see you tomorrow.
I'm now excited to meet Lola I wonder what her story is. If she can help me understand everything better. I decide to just sit here a while longer. It's been a long day, and I'm enjoy the peace and quiet.
JACK'S POV
It's 5:30pm and I haven't heard from Jess since she left my office. I've interrogated the rogues in the cells but there not speaking yet. So they can stay and be whipped by Tim for a while. Maybe tomorrow they will give me some answers.
I decided to find Jess.
Anyone knows where Jess is I ask via mind link
No alpha everyone replies.
I wonder where she is.
I check her bedroom she isn't there.
Likewise, I go for the kitchen, but before I get there I catch a whiff of her rose scent coming from the lounge.
I walk in to see she is curled up in the corner asleep. My poor Jess must be exhausted. I walk over and sit next to Jess and gently pull her into my arms
"Hey sweetheart you need to eat I say.
Wakey wake" I say.
"Hmm a little longer" she says.
"Isn't that my line" I chuckle
"Yeah, but I'm tired food can wait shh" she says.
"I'm sorry about today I promise it's not always like that" I say
"Shh not now I'm trying to sleep" jess says.
"You sound very awake to me sweetheart" I say just like she said to me the other morning.
"It's your fault you woke me up" Jess Complains.
"I know" I say before kissing her forehead.
"Come on let's go" I say then carry her to the kitchen.
As we enter my mum and dad are sat at the table.
"Hey mum hey dad" I say.
With that Jess suddenly opens her eyes and says "put me down".
Making my mum and dad laugh.
"Why are you sleeping" ask my dad
"Sorry Sam it just happened. But your son here insist I eat and dragged me here" Jess says looking annoyed
"I think he carried you" says my dad.
I sit down with Jess on my lap.
" I can sit on my own" she says.
"I know, but I like you here" I say.
Jess rolls here eyes at me.
"Dear, do you feel better now" asks my mum
"Yes I do thank you. Oh, by the way I took your advice" Jess says
"I'm glad to hear that" she says
"What advice" I ask
"Never you mind" says my mum
"Yeah it's between me and your mum" says Jess
"Dad" I moan
"Don't look at me son your mother won't tell me either" he says
"By the way Rita I spoke with your friend and good things will come" she winks
"What friend" me and my dad say at the same time
"Never you mind my" mum says before laughing at me and my dad.
"Don't worry dear get what you mean like I said we chatted beforehand I know what to expect the secret is safe with me" my mum says to Jess.
My dad and I just look at each other confused.
"Okay what's been cooked for dinner" I ask.
"Pasta salad" says Skylar walking in. "Will be done in half hour" she adds then she dashes off to get it started.
"Would you like a hand" asks Jess
"Oh your fine just relax" says Skylar
Half an hour later dinner is being served. Eddie, Vic, Chad and Annie have joined us.
"Do you fancy a movie night tonight" ask Annie to everyone.
"No me and Sam are going to have an early night, we will leave you kids to have fun." my mum says
"Sure" says Eddie.
Earning him a slap from Vic on the arm
"What" he says.
"Did you forget our plans" she asks.
"Sorry babe" he replies.
"Sorry Annie Vic requires my presence tonight" Eddie says
Annie just chuckles
While Chad says" of course she does have fun guys".
"What about you" Jess I ask.
"Could we do it tomorrow night instead I have a pillow calling my name" jess says
"That's fine says" Annie says
" what about you Vic and Eddie tomorrow night?" Jess asks.
"Yeah sounds good to me" Vic says.
"Rita and Sam" asks Jess while winking at my mum
"Oh I see yes we will be there" my mum says
"What's that about" I ask
"Your soon find out" Jess says.
Everyone seems puzzled except for my mum and Jess who have mischief twinkles in their eyes.
"Son I think Jess and your mother here have teamed up no point trying to figure it out trust me" my dad says.
"Okay we shall soon find out I guess" I say.
With that my mum wishes us good night before disappearing with my dad.
Jess looks at me and says "I'm going to go on up I'm tired".
"Okay I will join you" I say.
We bid everyone else good night and head up to the top floor.
Jess is about to go into her room when I pull her close to me.
"Where do you think your going" I ask?
"To my bed" she replies
"Wrong answer" I say
"What's the correct answer?" Jess asks.
I will show you.
I lift Jess into my arms and carry her into my room
"This is your room though" she says.
"No this is our room now. I can't spend nights away from you, I need you with me sweetheart" I say
"I'm tired though" she moans.
"I know, but I just want to hold you in my arms nothing else I promise is that okay?" I ask
"That's all you're getting" she says.
"That's fine" I say smiling.
"Um Jack I don't have my clothe" Jess then says.
"Don't worry you can wear one of my t-shirts it will be like a nightie on you anyway" I say
"Okay" she says.
I lay Jess on my bed. Quickly go get changed into just PJ bottoms and grab a t-shirt for Jess.
I help Jess get changed kissing her neck as I help her get the t-shirt on.
"You said you would let me sleep" she says.
"I know I just wanted to kiss you" I say while we climb into bed
Jess snuggles closer to me.
"Jess sweetheart did you remember to take the morning after pill during the craziness of today" I ask
"Yes I did" she replies.
"Okay then" I say
I wouldn't of minded if she didn't I want her forever, but I understand she isn't ready, and I don't want to add any more pressure, so I had to check for Jess’s sake.
"Jess you know I will always protect you from danger right?" I ask.
"Yeah I believe you" she says.
"That's good to know" I say.
"I'm scared though" she says
"What are you scared of?" I ask.
"If the rogues come back again" Jess says.
"Sweetheart even if more come I will protect you with everything I have don't be frightened I'm here" I say
I kiss her, and she moans.
"I thought you wanted to sleep" I say
"I do" she says snuggling closer.
I just hold Jess like this until she is asleep.
I mind link Eddie
"I don't give a crap what you're doing, but we are about to go sort some rogues" I say
"Alright I'm on my way" he says.
I gently slip out of bed change into some shorts and head for the cells where the rogues are being kept.
On my way Eddie meets me
"You realise Vic is fuming with you right now right you ruined our night." Eddie says.
"I know, but Jess is scared after today's events it's time to get even" I say.
We head into the cells.
"Alpha, beta" says the guards
"Open the cells" I say.
There all chained up. The chains are laced with silver to make there wolves weak.
"Anybody ready to speak" I ask
No one answers
They got punched a few times. All you can hear from them is Screaming
30 minutes later I ask again
"Anyone ready to talk yet".
One says "I will just don't kill me".
"Alright I won't kill you speak up" I demand.
"You killed our friends Saturday night our alpha ain't happy he wants revenge and this won't be the last attack" he says.
"Destroy em I say to the guards" walking out.
"Eddie make sure to double the patrols right now at all times, until this is over with" I say
"Get Chad to take control in sending the trackers to find where the rogues are hiding out" I add
"Warn the warriors to be on alert" at all times no ifs or buts this isn't a drill" I go on to add.
"And we will meet in the morning to discuss this more" I finally state.
"Sure thing" says Eddie
"What about Jess though" he asks
"No one says anything to Jess I don't want her any more frightened understood" I say.
"Yes" Eddie says
I head back to my room. I quickly shower. Get my PJ bottoms back on. Then climb back into bed.
Jess stirs
"Where did you go" she asks all sleepy.
"Shh I just grabbed a drink go back to sleep" I say kissing her forehead.
JESS POV
"I'm not tired now" I say
"I'm sorry sweetheart" he says
I snuggle closer and realise Jack's hair is wet.
"Why's your hair wet?" I ask
"Oh I quickly showered before I got a drink" Jack says
"Why?" I ask.
"Shh don't worry just sleep sweetheart" he says
"Okay then" I say.
I snuggle closer. What's wrong with Jack why would he be having a shower after we went to bed. I remember my friend saying her boyfriend used to do that leave middle of night come back all showered. Turns out he was cheating on her with her roommate. Would Jack be sleeping with someone else?
He said he loves me though. I can feel my heartbreaking at thought. That's when it strikes me that I actually do love Jack. Damn just as I realise I love him, he is probably cheating on me.
I sit up
"What's wrong" Jack asks.
"Nothing I just need a drink" I say
"Okay want me to get it" asks Jack
"No I can get it myself you stay here" I say.
I quickly rush out the room. Gently go into my room and lock the door.
I throw myself on the bed and cry.
JACK'S POV
I get a gut feeling something isn't right.
Alex shouts at me
"Mate is upset go to mate go now!"
Crap!
I get up dash out the door when I can tell Jess is in her room I can smell her scent… I try to open the door, but it's locked.
Furthermore, I run to my office grab the spare key.
Not only that, but I unlock the door and run to Jess
Pulling her into my arms
Go away she says you lied to me
"Lied about what?" I ask
"I'm not stupid it happened to my friend" she says.
"What happened to your friend" I ask
"Who is she" Jess shouts
"What are you talking about" I ask?
"Don't act like you don't know!" he says in an accusing tone.
"Sweetheart I don't know what your talking about tell me" I say
"No you tell me why did you make a deal for me to stay for two weeks if you had a woman anyway" she shouts
*Women what women? You're the only one for me, I don't want anyone else" I say
"Don't lie to me why else would you creep out then shower before getting into bed!" she asks.
Then it dawns on me
"Sweetheart look at me" I say.
She doesn't
"Sweetheart I went and spoke with the rogues I didn't creep to any other women's room" I say
"Don't lie to me" she shouts.
I mind link Eddie
"Eddie can you come to Jess room please" I say
Then I shut the mind link off
"I swear sweetheart I'd never cheat on you. It may have happened to your friend, but I swear I'd never do it to you" I say
"Where were you then" she asks?
"With Eddie" I say
"No Vic said they were busy" Jess says.
"I know, but I needed his help with some pack stuff" I say.
Eddie knocks the door
"Come in" I shout
"Eddie where was I this evening" I ask
"You were with me and Vic is fuming you dragged me away again" he says
"Okay you can go now" I say
"Fine but try not to call me away again otherwise I think Vic will come hunt you down" he says.
*Okay sorry" I say and Eddie disappeared
"Jess see I wasn't with any other women" I say
"I'm sorry" she says
"It's alright just trust me please" I ask
"I'm trying" she says.
"I know I'm sorry I promise I will try to make things better. I won't leave you again" I say. I wrap my arms around Jess a little tighter
Jess soon falls asleep again.
I can't help but smile as how easily my women sleeps. She sure loves her sleep.
Alex says "she sure is beautiful when she sleeps".
"I know" I say
"I can't believe you screwed up again" Alex complains.
"I didn't mean to! I hope you're ready for when the rogues strike because we are going to destroy them they showed up and that's upsetting our mate!" I say
"When the time comes just give me full control and I will deal with it no one hurts our mate" says Alex
"I agree".
Then I block Alex out so I can sleep
