The Sigma's Reluctant Mate Chapter 157
“What do you mean ‘Jasper has sigmas for mates’?” Mom puts her hands on her hips and gives me a dangerous glare. “And why are you using the plural here, Keller Joseph?”“At the club last night, Jasper and I were at the bar talking and the sigma twins we brokered to Darius Cirillo stopped to say hello… and uh… they met Jasper and… well, you know how that goes… they’re all mates.” I try not to cringe under Dad’s scowl.“Do you understand how dangerous this is, Keller?” Dad snarls on the verge of losing his temper. “For Jasper, for those girls, and even for us.”I hold my hands up in surrender. I thought after a good night’s sleep, the news would go over better in the morning after breakfast, but I was wrong. “Would it make you feel better if I told you the Regents’ pack is helping take care of it?”“THE REGENTS MET YOU IN A BURLESQUE BAR?!!” Mom shrieks and grabs her hair into fists. Dad cringes at her exclamation and holds his finger up to his lips, but it’s too late. Dillon wakes up a

Monday morning, I pull up to the science lab building, get out, and open Zara’s door for her. She pauses and looks into the back seat towards Dillon’s car seat. “Maybe I should stay home today.”“Zara, come on, we talked about balance. Going to class is part of that, right?” I pull her light pink beanie over her ears and give her a little kiss. “Dillon and I will be fine for a few hours on our own. Jasper will pick you up from the library at two p.m. That will give you time with Dillon and time to get a nap before dinner. Okay?”She nods with a little pout. “I know you’re right. I just… I’m worried.”“I get it, Pocket. I felt the same way on Saturday when I went out for Sam’s birthday. You’re going to be fine. When you get home, you can spend time with Dillon, take a nap, and work on homework if you have any.” I take her hand and give her a lunch box. “For now, you need to focus on class and getting your extra calories in. I packed you a grilled chicken sandwich. There are also olives

Dad arrives five minutes before Estelle and Tyree, giving him just enough time to hang up his coat and give Mom a kiss.When the doorbell rings, Mom takes off her apron and answers it. From the kitchen, I hear a low growl. Lily snarls in her deep, raspy voice. “Who are you?”Oh shit. Estelle must have arrived already in her true form. I thought she would wait and remove her glamor once they sat down to have the conversation. I drop my knife and run to the foyer to help prevent an altercation. “Mom, Lily, it’s Estelle. Smell her scent. Dad, you too!”Tyree is standing in a defensive stance in front of Estelle, who is in her true form. Tyree’s eyes flash from dark brown to black and back to brown, trying to hold back his wolf. Mom and Dad are blocking the entryway, preventing them from coming in. Mom and Dad each take a deep breath. Mom’s black eyes fade back to brown, but Avalanche is still close to the surface. “Estelle? Wh-what’s going on. Why do you look like that?”“You need to ch

“Bro! That’s amazing! Come in! I can’t wait to tell Zara and my parents. Estelle and Tyree are already here, too.” I motion for them to come in from the anteroom. Sam steps in first and makes a beeline for the living room. Jasper motions to Katie and Kara, who nod at him and stay in their spots. “Kel, can I talk to you for a second before the girls meet everyone?” He tilts his head and looks a little worried. “Girls, please wait right here. Don’t get on the elevator. Just count to, I don’t know, twenty and I’ll be back by then. Okay?” “Like twenty dollars or like twenty times?” Katie puts her finger to the corner of her lip with a confused look. She is wearing a blue jewel toned dress that makes her eyes appear even more blue. “Uh, I’m not sure what you mean by times, so let’s go with twenty dollars.” Jas sticks his lip out and nods his head confidently, as if he has made a big decision. “Dollars are good.” “Okay.” Katie turns to Kara. “Kara, do you remember how to count dollars?

Inside, everyone is chatting happily. Mom and Estelle are discussing pediatricians with Zara. Dillon looks like an angry little bean in Tyree’s massive arms, but Tyree looks comfortable, cooing and smiling playfully at the infant with his canines elongated. Sam and Dad are shaking hands and laughing at one of their corny inside jokes.“Mom, Dad, I’d like you to meet Jasper’s mates. This is Katie and Kara.” I motion to the twins, who are hand in hand next to Jasper. “Girls, these are my parents. They are helping Zara find that cure we were talking about.”The girls bow their heads and shrink back. Katie grabs Jasper’s hand and pulls him closer until she was hiding under his arm, her head buried into his side. “It’s okay, Katie. You two know most of these people. Phil and Amy are almost like my parents.” He smoothes her hair back and reaches for Kara. “Come here, Beautiful. No one’s going to hurt you.”Kara leans heavily against Jasper’s chest and buries her head next to Katie’s. Both

Zara's POVWhen Jasper walks into the living room with his mates, my heart practically stops. “Oh, they’re beautiful!” Lavender swoons. “It feels like we’re already friends. We can be friends with them, right?” “Yeah, Lavender. Jasper is our friend. His mates are our friends, too.” I try not to stare at the women next to Jasper. Keller introduces his parents, but it scares the twins instead of making them happy. Phil tries to apologize for how he has treated them in the past, but it doesn’t seem to help. They’re too frightened. “Go help them Zara. They’re scared.” Lavender urges me. “Introduce yourself.” I step away from Estelle and stand in front of Katie and Kara. “What do I say?” “Anything. Make them feel better.” Lavender paces in my mind. “Can’t you feel their fear?” She’s right. The fear is rolling off of them in waves. I don’t know if Jasper can feel it, but he holds his mates tighter against him. What would I want if I were in their place? Somewhere to hide. I know just

Keller’s POVWe eat a subdued dinner without Zara, Katie, and Kara. Mom packs up all the leftovers while Dad and I clean up the tables. Estelle takes Dillon to my bedroom to get him to sleep. Sam and Tyree take dish duty. Jasper goes home to put together an overnight bag for his mates and himself in case they sleep through the night. When Jas gets back, we all sit in the living room and have a long conversation about what has happened in the past several years, and how we are all committed to help change things for the better. Sam tells us he and his parents have spoken with the Goddess Foundation and made him the manager for all properties that involve their initiative. Mom agrees to help him make sure the sigmas have a female wolf to turn to if they are too nervous around males to speak to him.“Jasper, I know you are supposed to go work for your parents after you graduate, but how would you feel coming on full time with us?” Dad puts an elbow on his knee and looks at Jasper with r

A few days later, I’m making Zara breakfast while she’s getting Dillon ready when the doorbell rings. I sniff the air and catch the faint scent of Katie and Kara. “I’ve got it!” Zara calls from the bedroom before her little footsteps scamper to the door. As soon as the door opens, I hear the twins sobbing. I turn off the stove and join Zara to see what’s wrong. “Zara, have you seen Mister Happy?” Kara wails and takes a ragged breath in, followed by a loud, uncontrollable sob. “E-excuse me? I… uh…” As I come around the corner, Zara turns back to look at me with a horrified look on her face. Her mouth opens and closes until she finds words. “Keller, does she mean what I think she means?” “Kara, is your puppy missing?” I rush up, emphasizing the word puppy, and stand next to Zara. I can feel her relax slightly at the clarification. “Yeah. Jasper said he had errands to run and when we woke up, Mister Happy was gone.” Katie wipes her eyes and leans on Kara. “What if he ran away?” Ka
