Chapter 19: Chapter Nineteen
**Jaxson**
When we finally make it to the Blue Moon pack we decide to get acquainted with Alpha Robert. The rooms he has us in are nice, once we are in our rooms we decide to relax for a while, but then John and I quickly become bored of just laying around, there isn’t much for us to do while we are visiting another pack, we are used to always being busy and having something to do, so I mind-link John and ask him if he knows of anything there is to do for fun around the pack territory.
He is quiet for a few minutes then comes back to me telling me that we could ask the Alpha if we could go for a run through the forest, maybe there is a lake nearby that we could check out and go swimming.
My wolf seems to be a bit interested in that idea as I feel him start to wiggle around in the back of my mind. He has been cooped up for a while now, it's been a couple of days since I've been out on a run, so I link him back and tell him I’ll ask the Alpha when we meet him downstairs for lunch.
I certainly don’t want to sit here all day bored out of my mind. We got here early this morning and went over all the peace treaty info, and details for tomorrow along with anything else the Alpha and I had to accomplish so now we can just relax the rest of the weekend.
While John and I are sitting at the table for lunch with the Alpha and his family along with a few pack members. I look over and notice some girl sitting next to his son, I think his name was James or something, anyway, this girl sitting right next to him keeps looking at me with these puppy dog eyes and trying to catch my attention, I know her type she is only into finding her Alpha, someone that will make her a Luna, she is looking for her meal ticket someone who would be willing to make her a Luna of their pack. I don’t think she really cares who it is as long as it gets her where she wants to be. I don’t even think She would seem to mind if the Alpha she wants is her true mate or not.
But the way he was acting with her earlier tells me that they are together but neither one of them seem to think they are committed to each other. Which brings me to another conclusion that they are only together to get the Alpha and Luna title no matter who their mate is. This couple is a power-hungry couple. I am also now aware that when this pup becomes Alpha, we would have issues in our peace treaty because I won’t put up with the kind of power this kid will want to gain.
The Alpha and I have talked about how there is going to be a lot of unmated females at this Ball tomorrow night, he asked me if I’m hoping to find my mate while I’m here and I tell him how any wolf should be excited to find his true mate. When I mention this I look around the table and I notice that James ends up with this….I don’t know…almost regretful look on his face, but before I can fully catch the look, his face turns back to stone showing no emotion at all. But either way it was there, and I saw it. I know what I saw and now I am curious as to why he would even have that look on his face if his girlfriend and future Luna is right beside him.
I wonder what that was about, He must have felt that I was looking in his direction because when he looks over at me and gives me a slight nod, I take it as if he thinks we are equal, but he has another thing coming if he thinks he is my equal, he isn’t Alpha of this pack yet so to me in my book he is just some punk kid that thinks he is hot shit and that tries to get away with everything. I need to remember to keep an eye on this kid.
When I turn back to the Alpha, I ask him if he minds that my beta and I go for a run around the pack and explore a little bit maybe even check out the lake and maybe even go for a swim. He is kind enough to let us run wild. He is a bit older than I am, but not by much, maybe old enough to be like a big brother to me but not old enough to be a father, but either way he is kind enough to let us loose and that he also let us know that he will inform his border patrol that we will be out and about throughout the pack lands.
After lunch, John and I make our way out front and walk towards the edge of the trees and start to strip down so we can shift, this way we can keep our clothes intact for when we are done and put them back on, but when I start to strip down I feel eyes on me from behind and when I turn around to see who it is, it’s that girl who was sitting by James at lunch, she is walking towards me with lust in her eyes and her eyes trail my body from top to bottom and back up again and I feel chills run down my spine, and they are not the good kind.
When she makes her way to us, she looks me in the eye.
“Hey Alpha Jaxson, you guys going out for a run and to swim by the lake?”
This girl is trouble with a capital T, and it pisses me off.
“Yea, my Beta and I were going to go for a run and check out the area.”
“That sounds like fun, you mind if I tag along, I could show you some cool spots that I like to run through.”
I need to get rid of this girl, she is trouble, and I can already tell she isn’t even eighteen yet, so no wonder she is trying to latch on, she doesn’t even know who her mate is yet.
