The One He Claimed by cooper (Sophie and Hunter) novel Chapter 231

Chapter 231

“You want him to shove his mate bond up his ass?” I ask.

She pulls back and sees me fighting my laughter. Her eyes narrow, but then I see her lips twitch. “It’s a fractured mate bond. It would hurt like hell if we shoved it up his ass,” she says, and I burst out laughing.

I pull her to me, both of us needing this bit of levity.

“Oh, goddess, Sophie. I love you so much.”

“How much do you love me, Hunter? I think you should show me,” she says seductively.

I spend the next hour showing my mate just how much I love and adore her.

Sophie

After Hunter showed me how much he loves me and wow does that man love me, I needed to get back to the pack.

As I walk to the door of his office, I turn. “I don’t even know Alpha Zahn’s mate’s name,” I say.‘

“I didn’t either. It’s Jocelyn.”

“Jocelyn. Not his fated mate, right?”

“No. I don’t know about his first mate, it’s possible she was. But this one was one he hunted down as you said.”

Even more reason for Jocelyn to not want to be mated to Zahn. I have no idea what he expects to gain by coming here.

“Oh, and thinking of Jocelyn reminded me, we need more homes built at the survivor center. The surviving mates are asking to leave the packhouse,” I tell him.

“I figured. I’ll talk to Lucas about getting them built quickly. Is Leah moving out?”

“I’m going to confirm with her and Brooklyn that they don’t want the house they’ve been living in, but Brutus has a room here. Otherwise, I‘ m sure he’d be willing to build them a house on the pack lands.” I say.

He looks at me thoughtfully. “You know, that’s not a bad idea, Sophie.”

“What’s that?”

“Building houses for pack members who have pups or just don’t want the craziness of the packhouse. We’ve always had space for everyone, but we’re getting bigger, growing with the number of ranked females who keep coming to our borders. Maybe others would want their own space, away from the hustle and bustle of the packhouse.”

When we get to the border, I can see that the patrol was right. These girls look practically emaciated. They don’t smell like omegas though.

Warriors, but exhausted, starving warriors,‘ Hunter confirms in my head.

I get off of Shaw’s back and after glancing at the women who look terrified, I focus on Jaime.

“So, what name are you going by these days, Jethro or Jaime?” I ask him, smiling.

I watch the tension in his body relax at my calm greeting.

“Jaime. And you, Luna? You never mentioned that you were the legend that everyone was talking about,” he says casually, making the women look at him in surprise.

‘Relatives?‘ I ask Hunter who has shifted back to his human form. I see him lift his nose in the air.

‘Yes. Sisters, I’d guess.‘

He had mentioned sisters when we’d met at the diner, in what feels like a lifetime ago.

“I didn’t know anything about being a legend back then. I was hiding, remember?” I ask.
