Jenna POV As we accelerate out of the Pack territory, I move forward to turn the music up. I was envisioning a long three hours of silence and I enjoyed music when I drove. I admit Adam was a good driver and I felt comfortable with him in the driver’s seat. Not very often I enjoyed driving with others, including our security. I liked the control of being in the driver’s seat. Many would suggest I have a heavy foot. I would not disagree. I love the feel of the car going at a reasonable speed. I don’t drive to jeopardize others; I drive for the enjoyment. As I am singing along with the current tune playing loudly through the speakers, I was shocked when there was suddenly silence. Looking back from having been looking outside the window, I see Adam smiling at me. What the hell is that look for? I look away annoyed that he had shut down the music. “I thought maybe we could get to know one another a little better,” Adam suggests. I slowly
Jenna POV I was glad Adam had woken me up from my nap when we got to his territory. The lands were beautiful and forest as far as the eyes could see. There was a lot to keep a person busy in the community. I was surprised to see wolves line the street to welcome me to the Pack. It moved me to know someone was happy that I was here. I could not get past Adam’s efforts to try and learn about me. I had no time for that and no interest. After all that he had done in such a short time, I did not want to pretend we were going to be friends. I was committed to the year. That was it. My wolf, Tina, was sad to know she would lose her mate in a year, but she agreed with my decision. Adam’s wolf, Jake, was upset as well and would do all that he could to try and make it work. I felt sorry for the wolves, but they would adjust as they always do. After driving through town, we went around a corner and what I can only describe as a mansion came into vi
Jenna POV We walk back to the Pack house. The walk is filled with Sam and Jack telling me stories about Adam as a young wolf. He got his wolf earlier than the others. That wasn’t unusual – most Alphas got their wolves before others. I got my wolf before my friends got their wolves. Not that I shared that information. I did not want to draw attention to myself. My parents were proud but agreed to keep it between us. When we walk into the Pack house, Sam tells me Adam’s office is down the hall to my right. As I look down the hall, I notice the door opening from one of the offices. I quickly realize it is Wendy. She sees us and turns her frown quickly to a big smile as she walks towards us. I freeze a smile on my face. I would not let this woman think she was beating me at all. Her step falters for a moment before she walks up to Sam and Jack. “Hi boys, did you miss me while I was gone?” she asks. “Were you gone? I hadn’t noticed,” Sam says coldly
Jenna POV Five in the morning came fast. I sat in anger at Adam’s attitude for part of the night. Who did he think he was? And why couldn’t I simply go out and shift with his Beta or Gamma? His behaviour made no sense for a man who disliked his mate. And had another waiting in the wings for our year to be done. Rolling over in bed I move forward to grab a shower. I put a light amount of make up on – lip gloss and mascara to highlight my eyes and put my hair up in a high ponytail. I walk out of the bathroom with just a towel wrapped around me. Getting to the closet I would prefer to toss my scrubs on, but I don’t want anyone to see me wearing them, so I throw on black leggings and a sports bra. I put a zipper up matching jacket on over the bra. I quickly pack my bag with my scrubs and laptop, heading out my door. As I walk out, I run smack dab into Adam leaving his room. He is in basketball shorts with a hoodie covering his muscled torso
Jenna POV After another delicious meal in the dining hall, I made a quick stop to thank Mary, Jesse, and Sunny once again. They had a special treat made for me when I walked into the kitchen. A chocolate cupcake with peanut butter icing. I don’t know how they knew it was my favourite, but I bit into in front of them. I was instantly in love and to see the pleased look on their faces made that cupcake extra special. I licked the ooey goodness off my fingers before giving each of them a hug. “Oh, Luna you are so much nicer than that Wendy. We were afraid to see her take over,” Sunny says. Smiling at the three women, I feel a twinge of guilt knowing my commitment here is one year. I think I forgot what it would mean to the Pack to know they found their true fated Luna versus someone who was a wanna be Luna. “As long as I am here, you will be loved and appreciated,” I say to the three women who responded with beaming smiles. “Now I am off to
Jenna POV My wolf, Tina, was rubbing herself against Adam’s wolf like a little hussy. “Tina, enough,” I scold her. “You may not want your mate, but I want mine,” she says to me snippily. Once she is satisfied that she has enough of her scent rubbed on her mate, she steps back nodding to him to take the lead. He puts his muzzle against hers before turning around and taking off. He was fast but she was able to keep up. He was a beautiful black wolf. A true Alpha. We ran side by side enjoying the breeze through our fur. Adam’s scent in wolf form was intoxicating. He was intoxicating at the best of time, but the ruggedness of having shifted was drawing out my basic interest. I knew it was futile, but I allowed myself to enjoy it for the time being. As we bounded through the forest, we came upon a beautiful lake in the middle of nowhere. It had rocks around the lake – perfect for sitting and pondering life. I knew immediately this would quic
Adam POV I was so angry at Jenna and the Moon Goddess. How could she pair me with someone who had some superpower as to heal someone? And how could Jenna not tell me? It had to be magic of some sort and I didn’t believe in that, but she managed to heal me, so I had to believe in something. Making my way back downstairs I ask my Beta and Gamma to meet me in my office immediately. As I move into the office, I catch a faint smell of Wendy. She had been in my office earlier in the day and I didn’t understand why her scent was still lingering. I considered this as Sam and Jack walked into my office. Asking Sam to close the door, I invite them both to sit. My office is painted grey with darker accents. I wanted the office to be masculine and welcoming at the same time. I wondered what Jenna would think of my office. Getting off track, I bring myself back to the point at hand. “Has Sam filled you in yet on Jenna?” I ask Jack. Jac
Jenna POV It was a gruelling day. We had an influx of new patients this morning to review. I was counting the hours down to when I could get home and put my feet up. I had managed to sneak out of the Pack house this morning before Adam had left for training. I did hear his door open as I skirted my way down the stairs. As I pulled out of the parking lot, I saw him open the Pack house door. He waved but I ignored him and kept on going. I had a chance to check on the little girl who we had seen yesterday. She was not doing any better today than what we had seen yesterday. Since she is my patient today, I get to explore a little more of what is going on. I still need time alone with her and preferably when she is sleeping. This ends up better for me. Then people do not necessarily remember seeing me or feeling me heal them. There were a variety of tests scheduled for the little girl today. I wanted to check her out myself so that I could better guide
