Little Luna and the Big Bad Wolf

Chapter 4

*Alpha Jackson's POV*

I was so proud of Sterling, she had found her fated mate. As long as this Jasper boy accepted her she would be able to take her rightful place as Luna and head of the Briarwood pack.

Sterling had asked me to give them a moment to get acquainted. I happily obliged, waking Missy up and taking her over to the pack house to meet Alpha Nathan.

"Missy, Jackson welcome!" boomed Alpha Nathan, my oldest friend. He has become a mentor and an uncle-like figure to my girls over the many many years we have known each other.

"Nathan!" I exclaimed, shaking his hand vigorously. Missy was off in her own little world beside me. She was staring up at the gorgeous five-story black and golden marble exterior of Nathan's packhouse. She wanted to study architecture when she finally graduated from high school.

"And where has Sterling run off to already?" Nathan asked with an outstretched hand. Nathan was one of the few from other packs that respected our decision to allow Sterling to run the pack when we step down, even though she is not an Alpha by gender - She is an Alpha in her heart and soul.

"She is with a boy" Missy chimed in, not taking her eyes off the building.

"Her mate apparently," I added, smiling at Nathan. He knew what this would mean. I would finally be able to retire and enjoy life without so much headache.

Nathan made an O with his mouth. "Well if he's from my pack he'll treat her right, what's his name?" Nathan asked me directly.

"I only met him for a moment, but he said his name was Jasper." replying to Nathan as honestly as I could. I had only met him for a short period of time.

Nathan's eyes lit up, he must know this Jasper fellow quite well. Maybe there really isn't a need to worry about my little girl's safety.

*********************************************

We stood outside the packhouse, waiting for Sterling and I would assume Jasper.

Eventually, the car we had arrived in came into view. The rear door slowly opened, Jasper stepped out first, holding his hand out, Sterling appeared beside him with a look in her eyes that could only be described as devotion.

Once both of them had hopped out of the SUV, they interlaced their fingers and began to walk over to where our little group was standing.

James, Nathan's head trainer had joined us as well as his wife Nicole and son, Hunter. He would be taking over for his dad in two years or so. He wasn't eighteen yet so he hadn't found his mate yet. "Maybe it would be Missy or Chelsea, my other daughter," I thought to myself slyly.

"Well look who finally decided to join us" Nathan laughed with a jolly-ness to him.

Sterling's face turned a dark shade of scarlett. Jasper was the first to speak. "Alpha Nathan, Alpha Jackson" he bowed his head to us as a sign of respect. He was a warrior, he lived and breathed to protect and serve. How he planned to handle being mated to an Alpha's daughter who would take my place as leader would be a fun thing to watch indeed.
