Chapter 19
Jaxon’s POV
I’m just sitting in my seat, resting, I’m hurting from my battle with Alora. Her wolf Xena kicked my wolf Bruno’s ass. Bruno whines in my head, I chuckle. “What are you whining for?” I ask him. “I can’t believe I lost to a female.” he whines. I chuckle “We lost to the Alpha of all Alpha Females, Bruno, she’s special, I think I would be honored to serve as her Beta.” he’s silent for a moment. “The Alpha of all Alpha females, Beta to that title would be an honor.” he finally said. I settle back, happy and at peace.
Bruno settles down now, content now with the results of the battle. My phone dings with a notification. I look and its an urgent e-mail through ‘the student message board. I open
the e-mail, its from the Principal, I’m to meet the Alpha at the pack house tomorrow at ten to discuss a career opportunity. Suddenly Bruno and I are excited and can’t wait for tomorrow to be here.
Matt’s POV
Today is the worst fucking day of my life. To start off with rejecting my mate and being rejected in return. Which broke the spell a sachet of herbs Sarah had given me under the guise of it being made to ward off evil. Ha! Ward off evil my furry ass. It allowed evil to manipulate me for the last six years! It explained why I’d been ignoring Aries. And it’s what made me make the biggest mistake any wolf could ever make. Rejecting their mate.
I wanted to howl in despaire at the wrong done to us. Sarah is pure Evil. Withant tha All
Without the spell I would have been working all this time to be the wolf that truly deserved a female like Alora. There was nothing we could do now, we lost our chance. Hell. Sarah had made sure I never had that chance. I swear to the Moon Goddess if she ever see’s fit to bless me with another mate I wouldn’t allow anything, not a damn thing to get in my way claiming her.
I may not deserve a second chance mate. But Aries did, none of this was his fault. It was all mine, for not being strong enough to withstand a spell sachet. My father told me that the satchet carried a layering spell. Which meant over time the more I was exposed to it, the stronger the spells effect on me. It was the shattering of my mate bond, an even stronger magic, that had broken the
spell.
But that was a small consolation. Compared to what it was the small, seemingly harmless, packet of herbs had cost me. That she-wolf needed to be held accountable. My father said I can bring charges against her. And I think I will. Now that the fog was lifted I realized there were allot of things I’d seen that spoke of her evil.
She liked to hurt people. I’ve been remembering some of the things I heard her tell her friends. They all would laugh about who she hurt and how. Those three were just as evil as she was. Then I pause, or were they? Now that I think about it. Those three come from good loving families. Maybe they had sachets themselves? The only way to find out was to ask them. Sarah was going to be with her parents immediately after we’re released for the lunch break. Maybe I can catch the three girls on there way
out. 2
So my father doesn’t worry I text him. I tell him my theory and my plan. It’s a simple plan really. Ask them if Sarah ever gave them a packet of herbs they were told to keep on them. That’s all my dad had asked me. My dad texts me back. He tells me he’ll wait nearby where I’m going to try and stop them, so he can keep an eye on me in case something happens.
party.” added Beatrice. “She said they were to make sure we always remaind best friends.” this from Agatha. (2)
“Did she say how she got them?” I asked. “Yeah, she got them from a Witch.” Said Lauren “Sarah calls the Witch Aunty.” said Beatrice “The Witch was best friends with Bettina, they were always together before the Witch was Banished.” said Agatha. “Sarah was really upset when that happened.” said Lauren.
“We had a Pack picnic about three months before it happened, but after we received our Satchets.” said Beatrice “That was the day Sarah had us help her throw Alora into the River.” said Agatha. “I remember my parents being so furious at me for being involved.” said Lauren. “My mother was horrified, told me I humiliated her and dad in front of the
- Alpha.” Beatrice told us “My
grandmother was really disappointed in me, she wouldn’t talk to me for a month after that.” said Agatha.
“What are you going to do with the sachets?” asked Lauren. “The spell on these is harmful to all three of you, so what I’m going to do is burn them to get rid of the spell.” I tell them. I get out my lighter, the one dad gave me when I went on my first survival mission in training class. The girls are muttering between themselves, I crouch down, set the sachets down on the ground, then set them on fire.
They burned different colors, blue, then green, then red, before the flames dimmed and the sachets were nothing but ash. They had gone up quickly, the herbs being dry and the material of the sachets had been worn with age.
I look back up at the girls, they were
standing there, staring at the ashes of the sachets. Each had different expressions of shock and other emotions. It was Beatrice who fell to her knees with a scream of anguish, it was heart wrenching. It took me only a moment, for me to recognize that pain. And as cruel as I was beginning to realize Sarah was, I didn’t doubt I was too far off my mark.
She screamed once more, before sobbing, tears rushing down her face “She had me reject my mate!” she curls up into herself on the floor, her pain and despair a voluminous cloud around her. Lauren and Agatha fall to their knees, one on each side of Beatrice, tears on their faces they both hug Beatrice. Supporting her as her anguish cripples her. Sarah has done so much damage. She was a horrible she-wolf, evil incarnate. It’s the only way to explain what she made her friend and I do. O

I'm really enjoying the story but the overuse of "my mate" starts to get old. Also, I understand that it isn't a final edited copy but lot of grammatical and spelling errors that I'm coming across on all the chapters. Is there someone editing this? Is there a way to remove the update references?...
