JANNA I didn´t know what happened, but when I saw Jenny behind him, all the braveness I felt just melted away. I knew I was pissed off at him, but the pain that crossed my chest was undeniably something else. This was all wrong. I was starting to get attracted to Aaron but he was in a relationship. I slammed the door closed and dove onto my bed, burying my face in the mattress while trying my best to stop the tears from falling down. I should stop while I´m still able to. But how would I do that?
JANNA I made my way to the training ground five minutes before six in the morning. Jacob wanted me to start training today, so I woke up early and slipped on my sports bra and my high-waisted running pants, and I pulled my black straight hair into a high ponytail. The training ground was buzzing with warriors, and I saw Clair and Alia at the other end, preparing for their own training. Jacob told me he would assign someone to help me out because I was just starting with the basics and couldn´t join Clair and Alia yet, since they have more advanced training now.
JANNA After my training, I went back to the packhouse and showered before heading to the dining area for breakfast. Although Aaron didn´t say anything more after we clashed, he did give me a hard time during the training that I was sure he was doing on purpose. I would need to tell Jacob to assign me another trainer or else, I won´t do this training anymore. I was almost in the dining room when I heard my brother´s voice, but I couldn´t understand what he was saying, but his tone was serious. I felt they were talking about some private thingsso I immediately stopped on my track and listened to them without making any noise.
CLAIR "By the way, Aaron. I forgot to tell you that Janna would start training today. Have you assigned someone to train her?" My mate´s voice broke the silence that was ruling the dining table. I peeked at him through my long lashes as I continued to eat my breakfast. Jake had so many things to do that it was not a surprise that he was forgetting those little things already.
JANNA The whole packhouse was deserted today except for a few helpers and warriors who were to man the packhouse while the Alpha and Luna's Birthday Gala was happening at the biggest Pavillion in the territory. In less than fifteen minutes, the event would start and Jacob had sent me a mindlink saying that I needed to come down now since he and Clair were ready to go to the Pavillion. In the end, I would be escorted by my brother together with Clair. It sucked, right? If I had my choice, I would never take the limelight away from his Luna, and I would be just happy to hold onto my father's arms, but Jacob wouldn't hear any of it. I took a last glance at my reflection in the full-length mirror in my room. A smile curved in my lips as I twirled around gently, satisfied with how I looked. I chose a teal-colored floor-length evening gown with a heart neckline that hugged my curves perfectly. My breasts were cupped so nicely that it w
AARON The party at the Pavillion was at full blast. Earlier, the Alpha made a toast for him and for his Luna before he introduced Janna to the crowd, much to my annoyance. The place was swarming with Alphas and their Betas, and the thought of someone in the crowd ending up as her mate was spoiling my mood for the night. And it didn´t go unnoticed that there were a lot of unmated males giving her attention. My only consolation was that Janna tried to move away from them as fast as she could. Alpha Females were like delicacies that every Alpha and Beta craved for their own. It was fucking irritating me that Gammas were excluded from this. How was I supposed to claim her if she didn't end up as my mate? Janna was making me question the very tradition I grew up with. I never cared about the Claiming and its fucking rules, even after Clair was abducted. I saw it as it fits. But now, I fucking detested it. And I wished there was a way out because I am certa
JENNY I´ve been trying for days to avoid Aaron, not because I don´t want to see him, but because I knew I had already lost him. For the past year, we have broken up more than a couple of times, but he would always take me back just after one attempt on my end. He could never refuse me. But these past two months have been different. He spent less time with me and would always end up hanging out with the male warriors or with the Alpha and Beta, and he would constantly decline my invitation for him to come over to my house to retire for the night. He was with me, but not his attention. I knew from the beginning that Aaron never wanted me as much as I wanted him. And I was okay with that. He´s not my mate. And I thought maybe while waiting for my mate, I could play for a while, giving in to my desires. I had always liked Aaron. But I never thought I would fall in love with him. And seeing him look at Janna the way th
AARONThe moment Janna was in my arms, all thoughts of Jenny flew out of the window. Not that I don´t care about her, but I knew the man she was mated to. And I know he would take care of her.Janna, on the other hand, was a different case.I don´t think I would be able to let her go, especially now that I got to experience what it was to finally hold her hand, not because I was consoling her or I was scared she would end up dying. I was holding her hand because she wanted me to.I couldn´t help but feel overwhelmed by the beauty in front of me.Her emerald eyes glistened, and a wide smile spread across her beautiful face as we danced playfully in rhythm with the upbeat music. She was a natural dancer, and watching her let herself loose on the dancefloor was a breath of fresh air.When the music finally changed to a slower tempo, I drew her close to my chest and wrapped her arms around my neck. It was fucking time to
