Chapter 82: Book Two- Her Alpha Savior- Chapter Thirty-Four

Chapter Thirty-Four

Josephine

She can’t find the courage to speak apparently but I do feel her try to move her head in a yes motion and I release her from my grip with a shove and I tell her to leave, she quickly scrambles to the door and runs out to her car and speeds out like her ass is on fire.

I then turn to find Max standing there with a look of shock and awe in his eyes and dare I say…. lust? But I can’t let what happen go, I feel like he is just as responsible as she is. So, I look to him and I raise my eyebrow to him waiting to see what excuse he will give me.

“What do you have to say for yourself Max? Is everything you told me that night a lie? Do you not want me as your mate? What did I do so wrong to be treated with such disrespect?”

“NO! My little mate, you misunderstand what happen. I opened the door to go get the car for you and when I opened the door, she ambushed me and you just happen to come down right when it happened, I pushed her away right away my love, I swear, I need you my sweet, I love you more than anything, I would never do…”

I hold up my hand to cut him off. I have heard enough. I see the look in his eyes, and I believe him. I can’t let him know though that I forgive him so easily. While standing here letting him think I am still upset with him, I contemplate having a little fun and whether I should make him sweat a little bit. Granted I know how conniving Tiffany can be and I know she has always wanted Max and will always do anything she can to steal my place as Luna. I am done letting everyone push me around and I am done being known as the weak she-wolf. Everyone thinks I don’t have a wolf, but little do they know, I actually do have one and Mila showed me how to cover my scent when I was in the hospital and she also told me that when the time is right, everyone will know the truth. I am going to show everyone how strong I really am.

“I know Max, I can see in your eyes the truth and I believe you. But that doesn’t mean you are off the hook yet. She never should have been here to begin with.”

I lean into him and give him a chaste kiss and tell him to get me to school we have stuff to do today. When I turn to walk out the door, I can’t help but giggle at the growl I hear coming from behind me and I know it’s my mate and I can’t help but feel the chills run down my spine and I know that in the back of my mind that I won’t be able to hold him off for long with wanting to mark and mate with me.

Don’t worry, you won’t have to wait too much longer. I promise.

I turn to see Max following behind me to the car and when he opens the passenger door for me to step inside and close it, I buckle myself in and watch as my big, strong, mate walks around the front and opens his door and climbs in. He starts the engine, and we pull out of the packhouse drive and make our way to school.

When Max pulls into his spot that is right out front, we both step out and there are gasps and looks of shock and awe from everyone around us. Max comes to stand beside me and wraps his arm around my waist, and we make our way to the main doors of the school, and I try my best to ignore the looks of hate from the other she-wolves and human girls that wish they were in my place. And I can’t help but feel special with the looks I’m getting from the guys.

Now everyone wants to be my best friend or be with me, but before they couldn’t even spare a glance my way. I know it’s just because everyone has realized I am with Max now. I don’t mind. I am done being a push over and I am done letting everyone treat me the way they did before. It’s odd really, I woke up this morning and I suddenly felt this power rushing through me and when I saw Tiffany trying steal Max from me it’s like a switch flipped and now, I am this new, strong, powerful person and I am going to show everyone what belongs to me, and I am not going to let anyone take away what is mine. It’s like once I found out Max was my mate, I have had this power and this feeling that makes me want to stand up for myself and not let anyone push me around anymore. It's weird but exhilarating.

Max and I make it our lockers and grab what books we need for our classes, and I turn to see Tiffany standing there with a sneer on her face looking right at me. I look to her and lift my eyebrow at her in a ‘what do you want’ look. She takes a deep breath and straightens her spine.

“You have a lot of nerve to push me around the way you did this morning Josephine. You stole my spot as Max’s mate and his Luna. You need to step aside and give me my place back.”

I can’t keep the laughter in anymore and I let it out and I laugh deep and loud for everyone nearby to hear it. When I can get control of my laughter again, I see her looking around at everyone watching us and I see her look to max like she is asking to help her, which is funny, she thinks he is going to take her side over mine. This bitch is crazy. I take a deep breath and look into her eyes. I clear my throat a little and I make sure to speak loud enough so those around us will hear me too. I am considering this a little payback for all the humiliation she has given me over all the years.

“You think you are Max’s rightful mate and Luna? Are you crazy? You and I AND Max all know that is not true and it will never happen. You are nothing but the pack whore and a simple Gamma’s Daughter. Even if I wasn’t Max’s Mate, I would still have more power over you, I am a beta’s daughter. You are nothing, and now that I am future Luna, you will show me the respect I deserve. I am done being everyone’s punching bag and I am done letting everyone push me around.”

I feel the same kind of power that I felt this morning and I can’t keep it in I let it out and I when I do everyone around me gasps and lowers their head in submission and when I turn to look around and I look to Max his eyes grow to the size of softballs. “Baby…your eyes. They’re purple.”

I turn back to everyone else, and they all have a look of shock and awe in their eyes, and I don’t know what to do. So, I do the only thing I can think of, and I run. I run to the main doors, and I run out of the main building and towards the woods across from the school and I continue to run until my legs give out and I can’t go anymore. I collapse to the ground and when I look around me and I see my surroundings I notice that I am at the small lake that Max brought me to for our first date and I sit and think about everything that has happened and I try to make sense of everything, but I can’t.

Then I hear one of the only voices I know that can help calm me down.

Don’t worry, it’s okay. We may have to show ourselves a little sooner than I planned but it’s okay. We will get through this.

I know, but this is going to cause issues, isn’t it? I don’t want any more trouble.

No matter what life we live, there is always going to be trouble. We are werewolves and you don’t fully understand everything yet, but once you do, you will know why I had to keep certain things from you. You will understand everything very soon.

Mila, what is going on? Why can’t you tell me anything else? I need to know what is going on.

I need you to just trust me right now Josie. Can you do that please? I will reveal everything soon.

Fine. I trust you Mila, it’s just frustrating that you can’t tell me anything yet and I just want to know what is going on. I already know what you... I mean we look like in wolf form, but I don’t understand why it is such a secret.

We are a special kind of wolf, and you know this already, but mother said we were not ready yet. But she said we are ready now; we will come into our power, and we will be strong.

Mate is coming.
