Nova POV:
“So how have you gotten on?” Jax asks Axel once we have returned to the office following lunch.
“To be honest i don’t think you’re going to like it” he admits turning to face us.
Sighing Jax looks at me in frustration before motioning for Axel to continue speaking. “Well it seems to not be activated at the
moment” he says slowly.
“So it’s one that can be activated and deactivated?” I check.
“Yes. Dr Norton didn’t disclose that information when asked but it’s because he wasn’t asked the right question. Once I caught on
to suspecting it was the case I asked Elder Martin to check and he has since confirmed it” he says looking
downcast. “I apologise for getting your hopes up.”
“You don’t need to apologise Axel” I say gently, “if he ever does activate it we can then monitor his movements, I assume they
have them for emergencies. It’s more than what we had previously and for that we are grateful.”
“Thank you Luna” he says with a small smile. Yawning he stands up stretching. “I’m going to look into it more after the pack run.”
“That’s great Axel, thanks bro” Jax says as he takes a seat. With a smile to the both of us Axel quietly leaves the office leaving
us to our thoughts..
Not even a minute later there is another knock on the door which Jax stands up to open.
“Alpha Axton” Jax says politely, “come in.”
“Hi, I didn’t meant to intrude I just want to extend my thanks for allowing us to stay for the night. Luca and Sophie are both ready
downstairs to travel back to our pack” he says with a smile.
“That’s wonderful” I say softly. “I imagine Luca is excited.”
“Like a little pup” Axton says with an eye roll as Jax chuckles lightly.

“I’m sorry for not being around much, I’ve been making arrangements for the pack”
Axton continues.
“It’s no problem, I’m sure you’re eager to get home now” Jax says as he leans back.
against his desk casually.
“Very” Axton agreed quickly.

“I’m not sure if you’ve heard but I have pushed Novas Luna Ceremony to be moved to Sunday, you are of course welcome as is
Luca and Sophie who I believe already know
“Jax mentions.
“I did hear you had arranged it, I appreciate the invite. If all is well in the pack and I feel it’s ok for me to leave for the day then I
will be there, I will confirm in the morning if that isn’t too late?” He suggests.

“That’s fine Axton, I hope all is well back at The White Mountain Pack” I say with at
smile.
“I’ll make sure to let them know about your ceremony, I think everyone will be excited for you” he tells me genuinely.
“We will come downstairs with you, I can’t let Luca and Sophie leave without saying goodbye” I laugh as I open the door. “Have
you thought about how you will introduce
Sophie to the pack?”
“Yes and I got Elder Martins view on it also” he starts, “I will say she was a rogue. through no fault of her own and that once she
has adjusted to pack life and feels. comfortable she will share her story in time. I don’t wish to say more and endanger her as to
be quite honest after the last few days I don’t know who to trust with the
information.”
“I think that’s a good idea” Jax agrees as we walk down the stairs. “From what I have gathered during my visits Luca is a very
well respected Beta of your pack, I think. people will trust him and his mate.”
“Exactly” Axton smiles. “He’s been waiting a long time, everyone will be very happy.”
“Do you think anyone will mind the age gap?” I ask quietly knowing 8 years a bigger gap than most.
“Honestly..no. Sophie comes across as shy but once you have gotten to her true self

you can see she is mature beyond her years. She has had to endure a very different
life to most and it’s made her tough” Axton muses.

“Her confidence has grown since spending time here and being around Luca. I think she will be a brilliant beta female” I say.
“She will” Axton says confidently, “plus she can fight. She may seem delicate but she has thick skin, I think she will pleasantly
surprise many.”
We walk outside the pack house to see Luca and Sophie finishing loading their car with my father shifting nervously beside them.
“Hey” I call waving to them all as we walk down the steps.
“Hey Nova” Luca grins before greeting Jax.
“Hi” Sophie says coming to stand in front of me as I look at her carefully. Sensing no nerves coming from her I grin happily
making her brows furrow.
“What?” She chuckles.
“You’re becoming more of a Beta female without even realising, I can’t sense any nerves or fear in you” I smile.
“Oh” she laughs in relief. “I’ve always had much faith in the moon goddess, she has. mated luca and i for a reason and I am
excited to see my new home.”
I
“I can tell” I say softly embracing her. “Look after yourself Soph, and if Luca ever
causes you problems..you know where to find me” I chuckle with a wink.

“Thanks sis” Luca says coming to stand beside her.
“We will see you Sunday?” I check.
“Wouldn’t miss it for the world” he says seriously.
“Good” I say with relief. My dad comes to stand beside me with a sad look in his eyes. “You alright dad?”
“Yes just conflicted” he laughs slightly embarrassed.
“Let me guess, you’re happy Sophie is going with her mate but sad your daughter is moving on” I murmur squeezing his arm in
comfort.
“That and I won’t be there to protect her anymore” he says with worry.

“My brother will do that, although I’m sure Sophie is more than capable of holding her
own” I laugh as she scowls slightly at his words.
“You are welcome to visit whenever Kingsley” Axton says as he appears next to Luca. “You know how to contact us if you wish to
visit.”
“I will..thank you Alpha Axton” dad replies politely.
“Soph I just wanted to mention I haven’t forgotten about your wolf” I whisper as I pull her to one side. “I have requested some
books and my uncle Johnathon said he will be able to help. In the coming days he will contact you if you wish?”
“I’d like that” she says brightly as her eyes widen in excitement, “thank you Nova.”
“It’s my pleasure” I smile. Turning back to the gathered group I clap my hands together.
“Right as much as it’s been lovely having you here I believe it’s time for you to go home, I hope you have a safe journey and see
you Sunday” I exclaim with excitement.
“There she goes again sending us away” Luca whispers teasingly to Axton.
“You know full well if I don’t do it like this then I will cry..now go” I laugh as Luca steps forward and embraces me. “I’ll keep in
contact Luca.”
“I know” he whispers trying to hide his worry for me.
“Love you” I murmur.
“Love you sis” he murmurs back before walking to open the car door for Sophie to
slide into.
“Bye!” I shout along with everyone else as the car speeds off down the drive a moment later spraying dust everywhere.
“The little f ucker” I splutter as I try to clear the air in front of me, “why does he do that.
everytime.”
“Brothers are meant to annoy you” I hear Theo laugh from behind me..
“Don’t get any ideas” I say with a glare.
“I wouldn’t dare” he chuckles holding his hands in surrender.
“Let’s go and organise tonight then” Jax calls to Theo and myself gaining our
