to open my door.
“Thanks, I don’t mind opening my door you know” I say squeezing his forearm as I stand close to him.
“Only being polite” he winks before taking my hand and leading us to where Laurence and Naomi are waiting.
“Oh we’ve missed you” Naomi whispered as she pulled me in to a tight hug. Feeling a movement against my abdomen I gasp as
I pull away and look down.
“May 1?!” I ask as she nods and pulls my hand to rest on her growing bump. Feeling the wriggles beneath I giggle, “they are
some strong pups!”
“They’re happy their Alpha and Luna are home” she chuckles, “Jax..would you like to feel?”
“You sure?” He asks his eyes brimming with excitement.
“Yes” Laurence chuckles from beside her, “the future Betas are in there after all.”
Reaching his hand out tentatively Naomi rests hers over reassuringly as his face. spreads into a wide smile, “that’s amazing” he
breaths as I smile at the longing I feel through the bond.
“Soon love” I link him as he smiles at me happily.
“I’m nervous for when they get bigger” Naomi admits pulling a worried face.
“They’ll be here before you know it” I smile. “How was your appointment yesterday?”
“Everything is going perfect, I just need to make sure I get enough rest” she says with a soft smile, “can you please attend the
next one?”
“I’d love to” I grin.
“Thank you Luna” Laurence says with a smile.
“How are you both? How’s the pack?” Jax asks after introducing Johnathon to them.

both.
“Very good, everything went smoothly in your absence which you’ll be pleased to know” Laurence says with a smile before
excusing himself upstairs briefly.
“Where’s my dad?” I ask as we all take a seat in the lounge.
“He’ll be here shortly, Sophie and him were training but they should be on their way. back now” Naomi says shooting a
reassuring smile to Johnathon.
“Alpha I have the treaty drafted if you and Alpha Axton would like to have a look at it?” Laurence says reappearing from the office
a few moments later.
“Thanks Laurence, Alpha Axton if you would please come through to the meeting.

“Yes please after you” Axton replies politefully.
After they’d left I turn to see Naomi looking at me with an unreadable expression,”
“Do what?” I ask confused.
“Jax and Alpha Axton? They seem to be getting along and even making a treaty?”
She says in disbelief.
“Oh..that” I chuckle, “well I didn’t do anything. Rose tricked Axton, he was as much at victim as 1, despite him being in pleasure
at first it was all fake and twisted. With Axton and myself we always agreed to step aside for fated mates respectfully, and that’s
exactly what he’s doing” I shrug. “He knows Jax is my life, my soul mate but it doesn’t mean he’s forgotten all we accomplished
together, Plus his Beta may have al problem if he didn’t offer to help” I smirk winking at Luca who is looking anxiously.
around for Sophie.
“Well it’s a good ally to have” Naomi smiles in relief as she caresses her bump.
“Nova” I hear being squealed behind me as I turn to see Alice and Theo making her way over. “I’m so happy to see you” she
exclaims as we hug.
“How you feeling?” I ask as I take in her glowing complexion.
“Much better, no tears now” she chuckles as Theo nods.

“You’ll be showing soon” I smile as she rests her hand on her stomach.
“I can’t wait” Theo whispers quietly as he rests his hand on top of hers.
“Flo and Andrew?” I ask Theo quietly.
“Upstairs waiting to see their Luna” he grins.
Hearing my dad and sister chatting as they head inside the packhouse I look across
at Johnathon who is sat opposite me. “They’ve just come inside” I say to him as
worry crosses his features.
“He’s going to be happy, relax Elder” I say making him relax at my teasing.
“Oh Nova, thank the Goddess you’re safe” I hear my dad exclaim as he walks in with Sophie right behind him, “how did...”
He stops abruptly lifting his nose and taking a deep inhale, “what..” he whispers to
himself running a hand through his hair. “Why do I know that scent?” He murmurs to
himself in confusion.
“Hey dad” I call gaining his attention, “I’d like you to meet Elder Johnathon.” With that
Johnathon stands and steps beside me before turning around and meeting my father’s confused gaze.

“Little brother?” He gasps.
“You won’t remember me..” Johnathon starts before my dad interrupts.
“Your eyes” he states as he stares at them hard.
“Just like yours” Johnathon’says quietly as my father doesn’t move.

“Wait if you thought you were 2 but actually it was Johnathon that was 2 do you think
that was told to you on purpose?” I ask looking between the two.
“I think so, I was taken in by an old lady who I later learned was a witch. She was the most kind person to me growing up and

witches In the past, it is likely some still know a lot about them and wish to protect
them. It’s in one of the books. I imagine she did it to protect you.”
“I have a big brother?” My dad chuckles nervously.
“You do” Johnathon says taking a tentative step forwards. My father does the same before they come together clasping each
other tight as they try to hide their emotion.
“The family bond” my dad murmurs as he steps back. “I always thought it was a
parent, but it was you.”
“It was” Johnathon says quietly. “Why don’t we go for a walk? I have a lot to tell you
and I’d love to hear more about my brothers life.”
“Of course” my dad agrees immediately.
“But first..Sophie?” Johnathon asks looking behind him as she steps forward her
eyes wide in shock.
“Hi Elder” she says quietly.
“Johnathon is fine, I don’t need to be called Elder by you” he says with a small smile.”
It’s lovely to meet you.”
“And you...I’m sorry I’m still in shock” she says with a nervous chuckle.
“As am I” he admits, “but to know I have two nieces and not one has made me
happier than you know. Congratulations on your new mateship, what a blessing.”
“Thank you” she whispers with tears filling her eyes before she lunges forward and
