Chapter 79: Book Two- Her Alpha Savior- Chapter Thirty-One

Chapter Thirty-One

Josephine

ONE WEEK LATER

I think to myself this would be a perfect opportunity to mess with Tiffany and have a little fun with Max too, maybe get him a little riled up.

Yes, let’s do it. Let’s mess with her and tease Max a little in the process. It will show her that she has no place by his side.

I give my wolf a mental nod to show I agree with her and when I feel Max stand closer to me, I lean back a little more so my back is to his front, and I push my butt back a little so it gently grazes his front and when I wiggle a little, I can feel the rumble in his chest, and I can’t help the smile that comes to my face.

I feel Max wrap his arms around me, and I feel his fingertips graze the front of my hips on the small space of skin that shows between my leggings and tank top, and I feel the tingles intensify and I feel a small quiet moan want to break loose and I need to try harder not to let it show.

“How much longer until you’re done here?”

“I will be done here just in time for dinner.”

When he nudges his body closer to mine and I feel his arms wrap around me and I feel them tighten around me. Then I feel the tingles again and then I realize I missed something. I come back to myself and gather my wits and Max must realized this too because he pulls his arms from around me and leans over my shoulder to look at my face and he give me a look of concern.

“What’s wrong Josie?”

I just look at him and I can’t get the words to form and then somehow it all just clicks into place.

“Ariel, can you finish the for me? I need to speak to Alpha Max for a minute.”

She turns to me and looks between the two of us and give me a nod of her head.

“Of course.”

I drag max out of the kitchen and up the stairs to my room. I can’t risk anyone hearing what I have to say, who knows how many people know already. I don’t want to risk anyone hearing me, especially not Tiffany and her groupies.

Once we are in my room and I lock the door I make my way to my speaker and plug in my phone and put on music. I don’t know if the rooms are soundproof or not.

“Josie, If I would have known how serious you were, I would ha-“

I put my hand over his mouth to keep him quiet, that is not why I brought him up here.

“Max,”

I take a deep breath because what I am about to say is going to be a shock to me if I am right.

“Are you and I mates?”

Max just stands there and looks at me like he has seen a ghost. And it makes me think that maybe I was wrong. He takes a step closer to me and gently grabs my hands. Now I am beginning to feel like an idiot because I was wrong. Max and I aren’t mates and I am just imagining everything. Maybe the tingles are just nerve damage or something from the attack.

“…you figured it out.”

With Max’s words I focus back in, and I realize I missed the beginning of what he said.

“I’m sorry, what did you say?”

I say it with a look on my face to make him think I was surprised from his words. He gives me a huge grin and says it again for me.

“I said I’m so glad you figured it out.”

“Figured what out Max?”

“Your right Josie. We are mates. I couldn’t say anything until after your birthday or unless you figured it out first. I have been going crazy for the last few months, I knew we were mates when I first turned eighteen, but because the of stupid council laws I couldn’t say anything. You have no idea how happy I am Jo. This is amazing”

He wraps his arms around me and pulls me in for a bone crushing hug and starts kissing my cheeks, my forehead and all over my face.

“Max, Max. Wait. So, we ARE mates?”

“Yes, you silly little thing. You are my mate, my Luna, my everything.”

I never thought this could happen to me and now I don’t know what else to make of it. I am going to be Luna of our pack. Am I capable of being a good Luna?

“Don’t go there Josie. You are going to be the best Luna for this pack. That is why the Moon Goddess paired us together, she knows that we need each other. Plus, my parents are so happy that we are mates too, they already love you like you are their daughter.”

“This is a lot to take in Max. It’s going to take me some time to get used to all this. With the way my life has been over the last couple years, this going to have to be a slow go for me. At least the taking over a Luna part. I’m so happy that you and I are mates and I already feel something fierce for you, and I want to see where this goes, but I want to take thing slow. Can you do that for me Max?”

“Of course, Jo, we can go as slow as you need. I’m just happy you know now that we are mates.”

I am so glad to hear Max say that. I know that I want to give this a go with him and see where this life now takes us, but I am just not ready to jump into anything right away. I’m not ready to give myself completely to him yet. I know I will be one day, but right now I just want to take the time to get to know Max better. So, with that I stand up on my tip toes and give him a kiss and I feel him wrap his arms around me and I can’t keep the smile off my face and the kiss deepens a bit more. But then we hear faint noises from downstairs and we regretfully pull away and make our way back downstairs for dinner.

When we make our way to the kitchen Max notices that his parents are in their seats and He sees that his spot is open for himself the one looks to the spot that is reserved for me, or that is supposed to be anyway and when he see Tiffany sitting there with a sickly sweet smile on her face, he gently grasps my hand and pulls me along with him and when we reach his place, he doesn’t say anything to her about her sitting there. Instead, he sits in his chair, and I feel a bit confused until I feel him gently pull on my hand and then his hands reach for my waist, and he places me down.

Right. On. His. Lap!

WHAT. THE. HELL.?

Then he brings his lips to my cheek and kisses me sweetly. I hear a huff next to us and I can’t help the smirk as I look over.

If looks could kill, I would be dead and buried already. But whatever.

“Well, son, I am guessing that she finally figured it out?”

“Yes, she has. But right now, I just want to enjoy this meal and you, and I can talk in detail about everything later.”

His dad gives him a nod, and everyone tucks into their dinner. Max and I sit together. In his one chair and we eat out meals. I have a hard time focusing once on a while because I end up feeling little sparks from time to time along my hip and I know it’s because Max can’t keep his hands off me and I feel death glares from other girls around the table. Especially from Tiffany. But I am only focused on Max.

Once everyone is done Max and I make our way back upstairs to his room and we crawl into his bed, and we decide to watch a movie together. Once we find something to watch we snuggle up and I lay my head on his chest and I feel his fingers brush along my backside in a loving way and I feel myself getting sleepy. I tell myself that I don’t want to stay all night, but I know that’s a lie, but I close my eyes anyway telling myself I’ll just rest my eyes for minute.
