Guardian Wolf

Chapter 81

Anger

Nova POV:

“It felt good to train again” I sigh rolling my shoulders as the emotions I’ve been keeping check feel

lighter than they have in a little while.

“I bet” Theo laughs, “how are you coping with everything?”

“As always, head up and get on with it” I chuckle.

“It wouldn’t hurt to talk about it Nova” he says pausing in what he’s doing to look at

me with care.

“What do you want me to say? I have grandparents who are that f****d in the head they have

purposefully gone after my family, they wanted to kill my parents and me when I was born, never mind

what my parents dealt with before. I’ve had people betray me and cause me emotional and physical

harm from the person who I loved at the time, I’ve seen my sister harmed and taken. I’ve learnt I have

a whole family out there I haven’t known about for 25 years! It’s just crazy Theo” I sigh. “That’s not to

mention whatever the hunters are getting up to.”

“It’s a lot” he agrees quietly. “But if anyone can deal with it it’s you.”

“Thanks for the faith” I chuckle.

“I mean it” he replies shrugging as if it’s obvious.

“You have your mate, and he will only strengthen you. Goddess help the hunters

when you finally are on to them” he smirks. Rubbing his arm he winces as I see a

bruise is forming. “s**t Nova you hit hard” he laughs.

“That was me?” I gasp running to check it. “I’m so sorry Theo I thought I was holding

back.”

“That was you holding back?” He asks in amazement, “correction….the hunters are

f****d!”

“If only it was that easy” I smirk as he laughs at himself. “I am sorry though.”

“Don’t be, it’s training” he shrugs again.

“I’m going to take Flo some food, coming along?” I ask as we head back to the

packhouse.

“Definitely” he replies before we head into the pack kitchen and grab a tray of

breakfast for Flo.

5minutes later we are knocking on her door hearing her cheerily call for us to enter.

“Morning” I sing, “you look happy today.”

“I am” she smile

“I feel good. Back to normal just waiting for the go ahead to train.”

“Andrew?” I check.

“Back this morning, but he went to the gym that’s why you probably didn’t see him” she says smiling.

“Well I’m glad to hear it, I know how good training makes you feel” I exclaim. “We can train together!”

“I’d love that” she grins.

“You might regret it” Theo smirks playfully at Flo making me thin my lips as I glare at

him.

“Why?” She asks looking over her shoulder as she take a look at the food.

“Because she hits harder than anyone I know” he grins as he motions to his darkening bruise.

“D amn Nova” she gasps as I grimace.

“That’s her holding back apparently” Theo teases as he elbows me in the side.

“It was” I pout pulling a sad face.

“Hurts like hell” Theo says purposefully as he still has a wide grin on his face.

“You’re a werewolf get over it” Flo shoots at him.

“Flos probably not the best person to speak to for sympathy after recent events” I point out making

Theo’s face fall as he realises his mistake when Flo bursts out

laughing.

We chat for 20mins minutes before I start to feel waves of anger through the bond

making me tense in my chair.

“What’s up?” Theo asks noticing my change in posture.

“Not me, Jax. Sorry both of you but I have to go” I rush out, “see you tonight for the

pack run?”

“Definitely. Go..go!” Flo says motioning for me to leave the room.

“Bye” I shout over my shoulder as I head towards his office.

Knocking once I push the door open to see Jax stood by the window, anger rolling off

of him in waves as his fists are balled tightly into fists.

“Jax..?” I ask quietly reaching his side and resting a hand on his arm.

“Nova” he breaths as he turns to me his eyes softening slightly but the rage still simmering.

“Care to explain?” I ask softly guiding him to his chair and sitting on his lap before. lacing my fingers in

“My father was more disrespectful than he led everyone to think whilst we were away.

” he growls as his fingers tighten against his chair his knuckles turning white.

“Hey..relax” I murmur, “what’s he done?”

“Only complained about his suite to others despite telling us before we left his room

was lovely, disrespected my brothers to other pack members when they organised

specific drills for the trackers here, asked pack members behind their backs if the

training they were providing was helpful and complained the standard of food has

dropped since he was Alpha oh and made an Omega cry” he lists off.

“Seriously?” I ask pausing in my movements momentarily.

“Yes, your father told me today after gaining my permission to speak about father. He

was polite with how he said it..I spoke to pack members and the effect he has had is more than I

thought” he admits closing his eyes in frustration. “He’s undermining me as the Alpha and I won’t stand

for it. Laurence is gaining the information as we speak, he’s not happy either. I left him in charge and

my father has tarnished that.”

“So what are you going to do?” I ask quietly.

“Tell him to step down, he’s no longer needed for help in this situation and if he

breaths a word of what is going on I will have to consider more” he replies strongly anger still lacing his

tone.

“Your mum? I’ve asked her to help with the Luna Ceremony” I point out.

“Oh she won’t have a thing to do with this, I don’t think she will even be aware” he says as I rub his

neck to relax him, “I need to tell you more about my childhood.”

Moving so I can look at him he looks slightly nervous as I search his face for clues,”

ok..?”

“He was tough on me and my brothers, but when i got to about 12 he became more aggressive. If i

didn’t perform well enough in training I was punished his Beta at the time was the one who

administered the physical punishments, my father was more

verbal” he admits.

“What punishments?” I ask in horror.

“Oh all sorts but it was never visible if I wore my day to day clothes, he was careful

about that. It went on for a few years but once I got to 18 I hit back, since then he

backed off and my father and I have gotten on pretty well. I didn’t allow for him to

ever let

brothers suffer the same and maybe that’s why he has a thing against

them at times. I thought we’d put the past behind us” he sighs.

my

“But why?” I ask

“It was the way his father was, then he wanted to be the same but my mother would

never have agreed so yeah..he threw me into pack duties and made me help with paper work instead

of going out” he explains.

“That’s harsh for a child” I say, “even an Alpha.”

“I know, but honestly he made changes in the last few years, I’m disappointed now”

he says as he rubs my thighs absentmindedly.

“Let’s go” I say surging to my feet.

“To?” He asks standing up slowly.

“To speak to your father” I growl leading him from the room.
