Jax POV:

“What is going on here?” Nova growls her eyes showing Kia is prominent in her mind.

“These rogues don’t belong here” the warrior that spat at the other man growls.

“Name and pack?” Nova demands coming to stand in front of him.

“Ben, warrior of the Dark Night Pack” he says proudly.

“And you?” Nova asks turning to the the other man who showed aggression.

“Trevor, warrior of the High Mountain Pack” he says although his voice falters slightly when he meets Novas furious gaze.

I see Novas eyes glaze over momentarily and realise she must be notifying their Alphas. “Ok, let me ask again what was going on here?” She snaps her aura bristling with unspoken anger.

“We were reminding these rogues that they don’t belong here” Ben snarls.

“Calmly” I growl at him as he realises my presence for the first time.

“Alpha Jax” he startles.

“And why don’t they belong here?” Nova asks as I don’t say anything further to Ben.

“Because they’re filthy mutts that’s why, they kill, rape and beat our pack members” he retorts.

“Did these men in particular show you any aggression?” Nova asks him to which he simply rolls his

eyes.

“They didn’t have to..” he starts before I stride up to him and shove him hard again the wall, my

forearm across his throat.

“Show my Luna respect, you’re only a warrior. Remember your place” I snarl with Zeus growling loudly in my head.

“Luna?” He gasps his eyes widening to look at Nova. “I apologise..I didn’t meet you earlier.”

“And why was that?” I ask him with narrowed eyes.

“I was on the phone to my mate” he mutters.

“Ben” I hear Alpha Brad shout furiously angrily as he arrives. “Did my words to you before I left fall

on deaf ears?”

Pushing more of my weight against him I growl lightly for him to answer his Alpha. “I’m sorry

Alpha, she was calling nonstop and I didn’t want to worry her” he gasps fighting for breath before I drop him as he collapses to the floor.

“Your mate knows what’s at stake here, tell Lauren she should also heed the warning her Alpha

gave, you both will suffer the consequences when we are back at the pack” Brad snarls angrily.” Incompetent fool.”

“Now” Nova calls gathering the attention of the warriors as the members of her father’s pack

attempt to fade away. “Don’t go” she says shooting them a look stopping them in their tracks.

“Let me tell you this once and once only” she growls, “these rogue pack members are here under

the leadership of MY father. He is the new Rogue King and is a Guardian Wolf, he is bringing order

and peace to the rogues and giving them a chance at a better life. They cause no harm, no

aggression and have worked hard to make their life’s better for themselves and their families.”

“How do we know that?” Trevor interrupts causing Nova to snarl at his interruption.

“Listen and do not interrupt boy” I hear Kia speak through Nova causing the warrior to snap his

mouth shut immediately and take a step back.

“They have all taken a binding oath with their pack witch, if they hurt anyone that isn’t ordered by

my father then they quite simply die. They are fighting the same cause as us and they belong here

just as much as any of you do..is that clear?” Nova shouts looking around as everyone hesitantly

agrees.

“If you call these gentlemen mutts or even rogues again you will have me to deal with. Yes they are

part of a rogue pack but that right there should explain something to you, they are PACK members.

Do they scent as strongly as normal rogues we encounter?” Nova cleverly points out. Taking in a

breath I realise she’s right, although they have an undertone of rogue scent they also have the

heavy scent of forest wood and grass. “They do not pose a threat to any of us, in fact the only ones

here that have shown aggression are you bloody idiots.” With that the men begin to look

embarrassed by their earlier actions.

“Can I ask your name?” Nova asks the rogue member gently as he looks at the ground.

“M..me?” He stutters as Nova smiles softly.

“Yes you” she chuckles.

“Ham Nathan Luna” he says clearly.

“If you feel comfortable can you please explain why you were a rogue in the first place?” She asks. “If you don’t wish to then don’t feel like you have to.”

“No Luna I’m happy to share” he says looking up as he lifts his chin proudly. “I was a warrior in my
