Jacob's POV
"What?!?" I exclaimed when I heard her say that. At least for me, knowing that I was her second chance mate was impossible. I never heard someone find a second chance mate for someone who never had one before, and I have never had one ever since. She was my first mate.
Maya was looking at me, wondering maybe why I was in shock. She didn't know I had never had a mate before. Even in humor, mate was never included.
One more thing was, she said her mother was a witch and her father was human. How could she have a wolf when none of her parents were one?
I was still thinking whether she was telling the truth or not when she said, "You don't believe me, don't you?"
I was eyeing her intently. In the short amount of time between meeting her and staying here, she had gradually answered, if not, knew exactly what was on my mind. I don't know about Ken, when they were together, but with me, it was hard to believe that she was just saying things with my facial expressions as her basis.
"Let's say I don't believe you. What will you do?" I asked her.
"Well, I will ask you to reject me. "Because I am not going to stay here anymore," she said nonchalantly.
"Is that easy for you? The rejection? " I accused her.
"I already told you, I have been rejected once and a future alpha at that." It was painful, but I endured it. Well, I can't say the same for him. "
"What do you mean?" Ken asked.
"The gamma there told me that his father, the current alpha, was looking among his pack members to replace him." He had been giving some alpha challenges, or tasks, to those who wanted to try them. I don't know if there was even one who was qualified to be one, though. Well, that's beside the gamma, and that is if he was not old yet. "
"What did that incident have to do with your mate?" I asked irritably.
She smiled and said, "Oh, yeah, after I accepted his rejection, he writhed in pain and his wolf never emerged anymore." He was still alive though, but as good as a human. "
"And you wanted Alpha Jacob to reject you?" I accused Ken with a concerned look that was, I'm sure, intended for me.
"I never wanted it." Who would want to reject his or her mate? Well, beside my first mate and the one we know, who doesn't want one? " Maya then glanced at me. "So you see, it wasn't me. It was the other way around, "she added.
"Alpha, what do you think?" Ken shifted his gaze to me.
"Aren't you just telling us that so I won't reject you?" I angrily asked her."As I recalled, we agreed that we would give this mate thing a shot. But before that, I told you that you were free to reject me. So tell me, why would I need to make up stories so you wouldn't reject me? Aren't you too full of yourself? " My face darkened when she finished talking.
"Don't get too hyped, Alpha. I was just explaining to you that I had no reason to do that. One more thing, I was just telling you what had happened to my first mate. "
I was still looking at her when someone knocked on the door and got in.
"Alpha, everything is OK now. To make sure it won't happen again, I added a few warriors to guard there. " My grandma Dom told me as soon as he entered."Have a seat." I told him, and glancing at Maya, we would talk later. She nodded at me and we discussed our next move as per Maya's information.
shock was all over Dom's face, but I decided to ignore it. Ken and I were already in that state, so I told Dom to get over it as soon as possible.
Because Maya said she had already put on a shield of some sort in that particular part of the territory, the warriors that were assigned there plus those that Dom decided to add to guard was enough. We continued our meeting and were stopped again by Maya.
"I am hungry. Can't we take a break and eat first?"
"Why are you always hungry?" I complained...
"It was lunch time already. Aren't you hungry? Ken, Dom, are you not hungry yet? " She asked for both my beta and gamma's sympathy.
"Yeah, we eat first." Dom, who was angry at Maya at first, agreed without hesitation.
I couldn't do anything but agree, as I noticed Ken was eyeing me too. I rolled my eyes at both of them and stood up.
We all went to the dining hall, and there we found other pack members who were having lunch as well. Everyone was looking at her, wondering who she was. She doesn't mind the stares she gets from everyone.
"It's rude to stare, you know?" she said, looking at everyone in the table who was confuse as to why she was with us. She smell like a rogue and I know that everyone doesn't like her.
"Is it I smelled rogue?" she asked. No one answered and couldn't look at her anymore.
"I'll take it as a yes then. OK, I'll do this." she told them and said something unclear. All of us hears it bit none of us understand it.
"How about now? Do I still smell rogue?" she asked again and everyone sniff. We were all shocked that we cannot smell her at all.
"How did you do that?" I asked her.
"It wont take long, probably 30 minutes the most. It's just a little spell that could masked my scent. This was something I invented for myself. I cannot prolong the effect though." she informed me.
Although I was still hesitant to her with the thought of being her second chance mate, I was still glad that she explained it to me.
We were starting to eat and was giving her a look from time to time when I heard a familiar voice...

Third Person's POV Ken was watching his mate sleeping on his bed. It has been 5 months since the war ended and until now, his mate hadn't talked to him yet and he started to get worried. He was greatly affected by the fact that his mate was pushing him away and Jacob and Dom were worried about him. Although they were sure to get annoyed when he started to brag about his mate, they wanted that rather than seeing him in the state he was now. "How are you?" Ken asked when he saw his mate open her eyes. She looks at him and Ken feels something different with the kind of look she was giving to him. "Is there something wrong?" he asked. His mate shook her head and that made Ken really happy. It was the first time that he got a response from her. His mate sat up and Ken supported her. He sighed in relief when she didn't push him away. With their sudden touch, Ken saw his mate's eyes dilated and he smiled. "You don't have to show up." Ken said, "I know that you wanted us but we need to give
Jacob's POV The king and queen became our closest ally. All the packs around the world knew how much the palace favored us and our neighboring packs had started to contact us to form an alliance with them. I had been appointed as the head ambassador of all regional ambassadors. Everything they wanted to tell the palace, they had to come to me first. That’s why we have started to expect the Were kinds to come and visit us from time to time. My mother was in the pack when we got back and I found out that while the rogue king was busy with the warriors, Maya teleported her to the pack and then came back to the war. She could have stayed there, but because she was planning something else, she did. She wanted to defeat her father, the rogue king. She had been wanting to live in peace so even if it was a little painful for her to help the queen in taking her father’s life, she still did it. SHe thought that the Luna Queen was more hurt because it was her son as the direct descendant of
Third Person's POVJacob was in the palace hospital and was being cared for by the doctors. Maya was a little worried but she knew that he would be fine. She already asked Mirabella for an antidote when she talked to her about bringing Durant back to the rogue king. I told her that someone might be needing the antidote and Maya gave the ingredients for it to Luna Queen Roxy. Everyone who had been affected by it was now under close observation. The only thing that made them calm was the doctors said that they had stabilized them and would only need a rest.Dom and Ken were perfectly fine and Maya was thankful for that. "I'm sorry Luna, we should have not gone too far from Alpha." Ken said."None of these were your fault. Jacob was really the target of the rogue king thinking
Maya's POVI had a feeling that it was about to come. I was in the training ground and everyone was busy and in high spirits. That's what I wanted, it's perfect for this day. The day that we will put an end to the rogue king, the reincarnated son of the moon goddess, my father. I blended well with the others until I managed to conceal myself. I can feel it, his coming. Maybe because he was my father.He is not a witch so I decided to conceal my scent as well. I know that this will be hard for Jacob, Ken and Dom. Not being able to smell me will jeopardize their mission of protecting me. But that is the other thing that made me feel positive about this. The rogue king will never know what to expect.I watched in a distance as I started to smell the rotten scents of
Maya's POV I knew exactly what Jacob was thinking and I know no matter what I am going to stop him from doing what he was planning, I will never make him. He loves me and he will trade everything for me. I know it, because that is how I feel too. But I didn't want him to over think on something because I knew that everything would go according to our plan. It has been five days since we started the training and I knew that anytime now, the rogue king would appear before us. I had to lie to them that he will be coming here in a week. The rogue king must see that we are shocked to find him there and it will not happen if they were prepared for his coming. Without their knowledge, I teleported back to the pack and had a talk with Mirabella on our second day of training. They were all busy trying to make their human counterparts stronger. I must say that they have improved a lot. They were much much better than before and I was sure that their beast would come out stronger than before.
Jacob's POV"Thank you for what?" Maya asked, which made both Ken and I jump. "You look like you have been caught cheating, did you know that?" she asked me."Uhm, I will go back to the training ground." Ken said."Why are you in a hurry? Are you hiding something from me?" she asked and we both shook our heads. "So, you were hiding something from me." she said,"No!" Ken and I exclaimed and she laughed."I am not going to forced you to tell it to me, but I want you to know that there's nothing you can do that could make me mad at you two." she said and we were shocked to hear that. "You know that I can read your thoughts if I wanted to, buut because I promi
