She's the luna I want novel Chapter 3

JACE.

Zero spent a long time running around and playing with Amara’s wolf, whose name we didn’t even know.

Amara and I came from different packs, which means mindlink doesn’t work between us and our wolves. Although Zero could sense her aura and her emotions, like the excitement she felt at the moment, there was no way to communicate with them.

But despite that, our wolves seemed to enjoy each other’s company so much that I didn’t even notice that we had run too far from her dormitory. I wanted to tell her to turn around, but I had no way to communicate with her, so Zero just followed her around.

We had been running for some time now when my mother’s words dug into my head.

‘Jace?’

‘Mom...’

‘It’s dinner time. Your dad will be here soon. Where did you go?’

‘I went for a run. I think I will miss dinner tonight. Can I make it up some other nights?’ I had no idea why I didn’t tell her about Amara’s shifting. Maybe a part of me just wanted to be the only one to know at this point.

‘Are you okay?’ She asked, her voice laced with worry.

‘I am. I just want to be alone for now. Tomorrow night, my mind won’t be mine alone anymore once the whole pack’s mindlinks are passed on to me.’

‘I understand. Be careful, okay? I will set aside food for you.’

‘Thanks, Mom.’

‘I love you, Alpha.’

‘I love you too.’ I smiled at the warmth of her voice before I cut off our mindlink.

My mother, Luna Clair Galhart, had never seen me pass the little boy that clung possessively onto her arms, and although it did suffocate me sometimes, I knew she meant well and had always my best interest at heart.

When Dad finally decided to retire from being an Alpha the moment I turned eighteen, Mom was against it. She thought I was still too young to have the responsibility of an Alpha. Not that she thought I was not capable — she just didn’t want to push and force me into taking responsibility if I didn’t want to. But I wanted this.

And good thing that Dad couldn’t be swayed.

He was banking on me, and it was now all up to me to prove to my mother that I was prepared to be one.

This Alpha title was the reason I spent my whole life trying to excel at everything I needed to do to prepare myself for this day, and I never allowed any females around me to throw me off track.

I have a loving mother and a smart younger sister. For the time being, having them as the only females in my life was enough — until I met my fated mate.

Zero stopped running all of a sudden, his paws firmly gripping the ground so he wouldn’t crash into Amara’s wolf as she was already slowing down.

We let her run in front of us so I could see the whole perimeter and make sure she was secured.

She must be tired as we’ve been running and playing for a long time now.

I immediately shifted back into my human form and walked around her until I ended up in front of her. I didn’t miss her wolf’s eyes as they lingered on my c*ck and I couldn’t help but chuckle before I crouched down to the ground.
