(Jax pov)
I finally calmed down after running for hours. I mind linked Jake to bring me down some shorts since the party was full in full swing. I pace the forest waiting when a scent hits me hard. It was mixed with cigarette smoke but it still stood out the best smell I've ever smelled. It smelled of roses at midnight. It was scent of my mate. I stay hidden in the trees looking for the owner of the scent. I finally get in view of our patio and just see few people smoking and the scent grows old. Did she leave? I have to find her before it's too late. I hurry to where Jake put the shorts and that's when I see her. The angel from my dream standing at the forest edge looking. My wolf acts on his own stepping to her and out of the trees.
Her eyes widen as they land on my wolf form. I shift and put on the hidden shorts never leaving her eyes. My angel her blonde hair falling around her and her beautiful yellow eyes shinning bright like the night stars. She's dressed in a white spaghetti strap dress that landed mid thigh. She had to be an angel, I scent the air wanting to know what she smelled like. The smell of roses at midnight and forest fill my nose. It's her she's my "Mate" we both say at the same time.
(Serina pov)
We stand here looking at each other. I can't believe it, my true mate. I'm speechless and frozen. Everything and nothing going on in my mind. I'm completely zoned out, I think his lips moved. "I'm sorry, what?" I ask in a weak voice. He just chuckles and asks me again, "What's your name, Angel?" Angel? Why is he calling me angel... My mate calling me angel. Wait he asked me a question... right...name "Serina... My name is Serina," I choke out. His wonderful, amazing blue eyes widen and fill with acceptence and understanding. I'm not sure what he was understanding. He lets out a small laugh, it sounds amazing, "your Serina? Makes perfect sense now." His comment confuses me. Did we know each other? No this is the first time I've meet him, right? "Do you know me!" I finally manage to ask him my eyes filled with confusion. "My name is Jax," is all he says with a mouth watering grin. Jax is my mate!? Understanding begins to set in.
Jax walks right put to me, "let's talk inside, I'm sure people are worried about you." He takes my hand and sparks shoot up my arm. I let out a small gasp at the feeling. His eyes lock on to mine I can see he felt it to. We stare into each other's eyes, sparks and heat coming off our touch. My wolf can't take it anymore. She pushes to take control. When she finally wins, my lips crash against Jax's. Fireworks go off, the world fades away, and a small moan escapes my throat. Jax brakes the kiss and a small whimper leaves me.
"As much as I love to continue we are still outside for everyone to see," his voice comes out deep and husky. The kiss effected him as much as me. I start to blush and look away. He grabs my chin bringing my eyes back to him. "Angel, never feel as if you need to hide anything from me, you are made for me, as I am you. I just don't want to share any of you with anyone else." His tone grow possessive in the end. I nod and let him lead me back inside. Once the elevator doors close, Jaxs lips find mine. Passion explodes between us. Everywhere his skin touches mine lights on fire.
When we finally make it into the apartment, Jax goes to get a shirt while I look for Alex to tell her what happened.
Only before I have a chance to find her, Rydel finds me. I cringe when he grabs my arm. My whole body screaming it's wrong. "Let go Rydel!" I growl loud. "Dance with me Dollface," he smiles at me as he pulls me close. I fight him to get free, his grip tightens on me. "Why do I smell another male on you? Dosent he know you are mine!?" He looks at me with disgust and hate. "IM NOT YOURS AND ILL NEVER BE YOURS!" I growl and push back to free my self from is grip. His eyes fill with pure rage and he raises a hand as if he going to slap me.
The next thing I know I'm out of Rydel arms and behind a wall of pure muscle. Jax gets right in Rydel face, "You dare touch my mate!?" Jax growls with anger and power. "YOUR MATE? HA! Think again rogue Serina belongs to me! It's already been decided," Rydel laughs in Jax's face.
At this point the music stops and everyone's attention is on us. I hide my self in Jax's back. Rydel trys to reach around to grab me again. Jax grabs his arm before he can reach me, "I'll tell you this once," Jax steps closer to Rydel, "Serina is my Luna, my True Mate. And if you ever touch her again I'll rip out your throat." Jaxs eyes narrow at Rydel. Almost like he's daring him to test him.
Before Rydel get a chance to respond, Alex appears. "Your welcome is over stayed Rydel. Your outnumbered and out of line. I suggest you leave before I make you," a dark look shadows Alex's face. Electricity fills the air as Alex warms up her magic. I look around and I see the triplets along with Jake and Blake growling at Rydel. They all ready to take him down. Rydel eyes shift to the others then back to Jax. "This isn't over. Serina will be mine," he growls then turns and leaves. I feel Jax's strong arms wrap around me and he whispers in my ear, "Don't worry, Angel. As long as I'm alive you will never be his."
Jake and Blake send everyone home leaving Alex, the triplets, and us. Jax and I sit on the couch, his hand never leaving mine. Alex sits next to me, and smiles a knowing smile. "You found your true mate! How excited are you!?" I see the excitement in her eyes. "You have no idea," I laugh. "Hey, I'm gonna stay here tonight okay?" I ask her my eyes pleading that she helps me with the triplets. The triplets have yet to stop glaring at Jax. Alex nods, understanding what I'm really asking. She stands up and stretches, "well I'm exhausted from all that dancing and really don't want to walk. Hey Konrad drop me off on your way home. Serina, I'll see you at my house later," she shoots me a wink. I smile at my best friend, she the best. Konrad starts to argue when Jaxs speaks up, "I'll make sure Serina makes it back safe. Nothing will harm her." His voice is demanding and powerful.
The triplets and Alex leave and Jax pulls me into his room. We lay on the bed together cuddling. As I'm going over tonight's events something hits me. I scent the air to make sure I'm right and his smell confirms it. I raise my head and look at Jax, "Your not a rogue are you?" Jax let's out a heavy sigh closing his eyes, "No we are not rogues..." He opens his eyes and looks at me sadness fills them. "Jake, Blake, and I are all that's left of our pack..." My heart breaks for him. His whole pack gone. My wolf whimpers, and a need to comfort him fills me. I crawl on to his lap and look down into his eyes. His eyes fill with love and sadness.
I quickly kiss is lips before I begin, "I, Serina daughter of Alpha Tybolt of Nightstar pack, denounce my pack and swear my loyalty to Alpha Jax, my one true alpha." Jax eyes widened as I feel connection with pack break and new one forming with Jax. Jax sits up and claims my lips. I am now part of his pack and no longer under Nightstar.
