The Second Choice Mate Chapter 27
Eva Gibson's pov Mortified at having to explain to the head guardsman that I was requesting to switch sponsors because Austin was my mate. I covered my face in embarrassment. My cheeks burned when the man said that it was wise of me to do so, so there weren't any accusations of favoritism. “It's better to be honest, Eva. Hell, Sirius might help you get back with Austin,” Jace asserted and I eyed him in disbelief. “I didn't want to air my personal business, especially when we both refused to be mates,” I huffed as I got into the passenger seat. “Well, let's get you back to your house, and I will give you a practice test later that the other guards get before the test tomorrow so you know what to expect,” he said chipperly, and I muttered an unexciting, okay. Pulling up to my home I asked him if he wanted to come inside now to give me the test. He eyed me oddly and shrugged. “I can,” he replied and I explained that I just wanted to get it done. “Maybe you can tell me abou

Eva Gibson's pov I awoke in a panic and looked at my alarm clock, seeing it was eight-thirty. Scrambling out of bed I quickly got dressed and brushed my hair. Grabbing my house keys I locked the door and ran toward the training center. Once I got there I went inside of the building and the classroom that was partially filled with other trainees. The middle-aged instructor gestured for me to come to his desk and asked me for my name. Still breathing heavily from running I said, “Eva Gibson.” “And your sponsor?” “Aus…no, it's Jace McDermott,” I replied, and he nodded as he wrote down the information. “Go take a seat, there's coffee and donuts on the side table if you want anything,” he said kindly, and I thanked him. “You are?” I asked. “I'm Master at Arms, Stephen Jacob, and everyone just calls me Steve,” he answered, and I nodded as I headed to the coffee pot. After getting a cup, I glanced at the trainees who were sitting at the desks and saw an old female classma

Eva Gibson's pov Looking at me, Austin's corner of his lip curled up as he told me to finish eating. Smiling at him I nodded and lifted my fork. Sneaking peeks at him, I studied his chiseled features and the smooth lines of his sparse facial hair, curious if it would give me whisker burns on my inner thighs if he ate my kitty. I crossed my legs as my thoughts were getting my panties slightly damp and cringed when Austin sniffed the air and his narrow eyes glanced over the table at me. “Why is his nose so in tune with my lust,” I thought and Lana snickered. “He is your mate and he can detect the slightest change in your pheromones. It's a good indication that he's indeed yours,” she explained and I swallowed uncomfortably at the fluttering in my abdomen. Finished with my breakfast I excused myself and brought it to the kitchen sink and began filling it with hot sudsy water. “Bring me your dishes and I will wash them,” I called out over my shoulder. Jace slid his dirty dish int

Eva Gibson's pov “Do whatever you want to Curtis, it sounds like the bastard deserves it,” He huffed. “Yeah, well, I don't want to be put into the pack's prison over his scummy ass,” I muttered sourly, and he nodded. “So do I have to wait until you graduate guard training to take you out on dates, Eva?” I glanced at him with a grin. “You want to take me on a date?” “Sure, I have enjoyed our time together at the park in town and your time spent at my house,” he commented yet I was skeptical. “Why the change in tune? You were adamant about removing me from your life, Austin. Sorry if I am feeling reluctant suddenly,” I stressed. Chewing on his lip, he exhaled sharply and said, “I like you, Eva, and there isn't any other that I want to.. let's just say that I feel that we would do well together.” I rolled my eyes and slowly shook my head as I eyed him in befuddlement. “Well, that was so convincing, Mister Belmont! I'm gushing in gratitude,” I responded with a mocking

Eva Gibson's pov Swinging my arm Austin stopped then looked at me. “You want to come back and stay at my place?” Giggling, I shook my head. “I think I should stay by myself while I go through training but we can still go out on dates. I don't want to tarnish my already sketchy reputation,” I said softly and he chuckled. “That sounds like a jab at my sordid past,” he said with a smirk and I raised my eyebrows at him as I smiled guiltily. “Fine, Eva,” he muttered and I squeezed his hand. “I swear it's nothing against you,” I asserted and he said, “Right. Well, let's head to the commissary so you can get your work schedule since you want to be an independent woman.” Rolling my eyes at him he pulled me toward the small grocery store and held the door open so I could walk past him. “Hey Wyatt, is Betty here?” Austin asked and the clerk pointed to the back and said, “The boss lady is in her office.” “Follow me, Eva,” he said firmly and headed toward the rear of the store

Eva Gibson's pov My home looked like a tornado had swept through it, and as I entered my bedroom, my eyes widened at my closet being gone through. My clothes were scattered everywhere and I noticed that my best dresses were missing. “That bitch! She took my good clothes!” I hissed. Finding my cell phone I dialed Olivia. The call went directly to voicemail so I left a curt message. “Why did you take my nice dresses! Your soon-to-be husband is rich, owns a high-end clothing store, and can get you New ones. I can't believe how selfish YOU ARE!” Tossing the phone onto my bed I was shaking in my anger. Going to the kitchen I grabbed a beer from the fridge and twisted off the cap. As I sipped from the bottle out in my small living room there was a knock on my door. “Eva, are you home?” Jace called out. “Yeah, the door is unlocked so come on in!” Watching the door open Jace peeked his head inside and smiled at me. “Why the long face?” He asked me and I rolled my eye

Eva Gibson’s povStanding together, Eva, at eighteen, and Olivia, at twenty-five, held each other's hand as they watched the dirt cover the graves of their parents at their large pack's cemetery…“What are we going to do?” I questioned my older sister who was weeping quietly.Giving me a look of sympathy she asserted, “I will drop out of university and get a job at the pack's shopping center.”I side-eyed her in disbelief.“But Olivia, you were getting honors and are close to graduation,” I said softly.Lowering her tear-stained eyes from mine, she exhaled deeply and said, “I promised to watch over you and will honor our parent's wishes.”This seemed unfair, and bitterness filled my heart for the drunk human responsible for fatally crashing into my parents.My eyes narrowed as I glanced over the mourners who attended the funeral and paused briefly at Austin Belmont, who was blatantly staring at my sister.“The pack whore is eyeing you,” I mumbled softly in disgust and Olivia scolded m

Eva Gibson’s pov Putting the food items away I heard my sister ask Austin to stay for dinner and groaned internally.Still reeling from the funeral, I side-eyed her and said, “Don't you think it would be better for us to be alone at this time?”Biting her bottom lip, she narrowed her red-rimmed eyes and said firmly, “Austin's thoughtfulness should be rewarded with a good meal. I will prepare it so don't worry about it, little sister.”Glancing over at Austin sitting on a stool by the counter, he pretended to be oblivious to our conversation. I huffed out a fine to my sister and asked him if he wanted anything to drink.“A cold beer sounds good if you have any?” He asked with a grin and I opened the refrigerator to grab one of my dad's.Handing it to him, I muttered, “Might as well drink them, or they're going to be tossed in the trash.”Holding the bottle, he inspected it and said, “These were your dad's, eh?”Nodding, I told him yeah.“Sorry about them both,” he added and popped the

Eva Gibson's pov Frustrated beyond belief, I rose up with my empty bottle, went to the trash, dropped it inside, and then stopped before Austin. “I don't even like you and have always thought you were nothing but a womanizing asshat. The only reason I agreed to this was because I had no other choice. Just recently I have begun to tolerate you. You see, Austin, I don't trust men because of what Curtis did to me so this was a new experience for me…thanks for proving that men are jerks. I don't want you to be my mate, so I refuse it!” I asserted and turned away to collect my things. Gobsmacked Austin stood there with his mouth gaping as I walked away. I fought the emotions building up in my throat. “Well, that sucks,” Lana whined, and I huffed bitterly. “I'm not going to beat a dead horse wolf; he is too damn stubborn,” I murmured as I shoved my belongings into my duffle bag. Grabbing my dad's blade I grasped it in determination. “I will pass guard training and continue livi

Eva Gibson's pov Going to Jace's truck I glanced at Austin and exhaled deeply. Jace went to the driver's side and unlocked his door to get inside. Austin was about to jump in, and I placed my hand on his arm, stopping him. He huffed and turned to face me in annoyance. “I will marry you if it helps the pack. I don't want your uncle to take it over,” I said softly and his eyes narrowed down at me. “I will never love you, Eva. I won't suffer like that again,” he said coldly and I gritted my molars and glared at him. “We ARE mates, Austin and I never mentioned anything about love. I'm offering a partnership so that you can become Alpha,” I asserted and he shook his head and got into the truck. Before he shut the door he said, “I don't know you well enough.” I stood there gobsmacked, not believing the pack male whore was telling me that he didn't know me well enough. “Bet he would fuck me without knowing what my likes were,” I muttered as I got in the backseat. “He prob
The Second Choice Mate Chapter 24
Eva Gibson's pov Seeing the confused pain in Austin's features, I eyed my sister, returning with no remorse whatsoever. “You could have been kinder, Sis. He really loved you,” I muttered and she shook her head. “He needed a reality check. His fantasy was getting ridiculous, and I love my true mate, Landon,” Olivia stressed, punching her palm with each syllable. Backing off her I glanced back at Austin and groaned as I headed to him. “Let's go eat, Austin. A full stomach helps with the heartache; well, I assume it does,” I said softly as I grabbed his hand. “Can we wait a bit? I am falling apart internally,” he muttered, and I noticed that he was getting teary-eyed. Opening my arms to him I wasn't surprised by him burying his face into the groove of my neck and beginning to weep as he hugged me. Rubbing his back in a circular motion I told him to let it out. “Go ahead and get it all out,” I murmured and saw Jace raising his hands wondering what was happening. Waving my
