Finally, things start to get back to normal. I fall into a routine. It’s been a month since the funerals. My chair came the day after the funerals, I love it. Alpha gave me the encyclopedias and few other books. I read when I find down time.
Lola is back, she is still weak, but she talks to me daily now. We have good flow of the things we all do daily. I wake up a naked Alpha every morning for training. Make his bed and do his laundry. I file his paperwork.
Every day at noon Bethany shows up for the Alpha. He doesn’t know it but her and I have inside joke going, we call their meetings “the nooner”. She brings me a sugar free cupcake every day. After around 1pm, I help Jasper sponge bath Livi and change the sheets. I let the doctor in around 5 and make dinner. After dinner I wash the dishes and go to the gym. I come back shower and cuddle up on the couch and watch movies with Jasper.
We have grown super close and our cuddling is more for comfort than anything else. On Wednesdays there is extra little thing at 2. Alpha has his personal masseuse come in for about 2 hours. I don’t know what she does to him, but I might want Sam to do it to me, because he is always in a better mood after she leaves. Not that he isn’t anything but nice to me. But she must give really good massages.
Unknown POV
Are you kidding me? How in the hell do I hire rogues knowing they will be killed and never be able to tell my plan, send them in with the exact location and instructions to kill the blonde girl, and they kill 5 others and possibly the future Luna, cause she’s still not awake and may never wake? How?
Graci is still the apple of the alpha’s eye. She could probably kill someone, and he would treat her like she’s all innocent. Why? Does he have a thing for her or something? Or Maybe it’s Jasper who wants to be with her. That is who he thought his mate would be originally.
I just don’t understand how my plans keep failing. At least I was able to keep her wolf weak. I’m running out of idea’s Alpha should be mine. I know some others who think they have a chance, but he is mine. They will see. Until I come up with a better plan I’ll just keep to my daily chores and dream about when we will be together.
Jasper POV
I’m starting to worry Livi may never wake up. It breaks my heart to see her laying there lifeless. Thank goddess I have Graci around to keep me sane. Weirdly enough we have become closer than we were before.
I didn’t know that was possible, but she understands my pain and my reason for not wanting to talk about it. August 21st, I leave for college, Graci has agreed to keep taking care of Livi if she hasn’t woken up by then.
“Hey dork, whatcha thinking about.” Graci says from the doorway of my room pulling me from my thoughts.
“Livi and college.” I say stand up to help bath Livi.
“I think she will wake up.” Graci says with a big smile.
We wash Livi and Graci rubs her down with her rose oil every day after her sponge bath, so her skin doesn’t dry out. Graci cares for Livi like she is her sister.
I watch as my best friend takes such sweet care of my mate. I can’t wait to be alpha and know that Graci will always be here to help us and make things run smooth. She really is good at all of this. As I watch I see her skirt shifts and it reminds me of when I found her in my dad’s closet floor with the whole back of her skirt blown open. She really does have a nice ass tho I think to myself.
“Snap out of it boy our mate might not be mentally present, but we cannot think of others like that.” My wolf snaps at me. He’s right. I clear my head of all that nonsense.
“Ok I’m all done. Now I have to go get your dad to get on his conference call.” Graci says with a shrug.
“What is it about?”
“Some of the other packs are being attack like we were.” Graci says with look of fear.
“It’s ok Graci that will never happen here again.” I give her a side hug before she heads out the door.
She leaves and I’m left alone with my sleeping mate again. I need to start doing things. I need to get back to normal life. This can’t be my new normal. I think I’ll got to the gym with Graci later. And tomorrow after training I’ll go hang out with Kevin and Lillian. I’ll be sure to be back in time to help Graci with Livi, but Livi wouldn’t want me to sit around waiting for her to wake up.
Graci POV
I walk out of Jasper’s room and down to Alpha’s office. I knock letting him know I’m there. I know he’s doing paperwork for one of the businesses he runs but he needs to get on the call in 5 minutes.
“Sir I know your busy, but you need to join the conference call.”
“Thank you Graci, I almost forgot.” He says.
“Do you need anything else sir?”
“No that will be all. Thank you Graci.” He says with a small smile.
Now back to planning dinner. I’m thinking tacos. I take out meat to thaw. Jasper walks into the kitchen and asks me to let his dad know he’s going to hangout Kevin and to mindlink him if her needs him for anything. He leaves and about 5 mins later.
I hear the buzz of the door. Bethany must have forgot something because Jasper would use the code. Then I remember it’s Wednesday. Duh, I say to myself throwing my hands up in dramatic fashion. I let Sam in and walk with her to the Alpha’s office. I knock.
“Sir Sam is here for your appointment.”
“Hey Samantha. Go ahead and set the table up while I finish this call.” He says smiling at her. She nods.
“Sir two more things. Jasper said to tell you if you need him to mindlink him, he will be with Kevin. And I need to run to the store for taco seasoning.” I say with a smile.
“Ok Graci.” He smiles at me.
I know taco night is one of his favorite meals. He usually eats breakfast and dinner with the pack now, but on Wednesday’s nights he eats with us. Another one of Sam’s mood changers. I laugh to myself as I walk to the door and head down the stairs. Sam is a human masseuse. And she is from a company in town.
I never would have guessed this before I met her. I get to the bottom of the stairs and run into Amara on of the kitchen omegas I have become friends with. She looks like she could be my sister. We look a lot alike. Only she has green eyes, she’s an inch shorter, smaller boobs, but from the waist down she’s about the same.
“Where are you going?” She asks hugging me.
“I’m headed to the store to get some taco seasoning.”
“Why? We have so much in the kitchen. Take some of ours.” Amara says throwing her head toward the kitchen.
“Ok if you’re sure you won’t get into trouble.”
“I won’t.” She says with a laugh. “I mean we used to make the food for the Alpha’s floor, until you decided to do your own cooking.” She said shrugging.
“I didn’t mean to make you guys feel like your food isn’t good. I just like cooking.”
“It’s all good girl. We still have to make for the rest of the pack house and the Alpha most days.” She says leading me to the kitchen. “Just taco seasoning?” she asks.
“Yes, that’s it. I have everything else.”
Amara gets the seasoning and hands it over. She convinces me to have some tea with her. We sit and talk about all that is going on with the pack. She fills me in on the latest gossip and I listen intently. I sip my tea as she slips the tea so to speak.
After about 15 minutes of talking, I finish my tea and tell her I need to get back upstairs. She hugs me goodbye and tells me not to be a stranger and I head upstairs. I walk in and go to put the seasoning in the kitchen when I hear noises. I walk toward the office. The door is open. It’s never open when Sam is here.
I am curious to know what she does, so I keep walking. I hear Ronan moan oh yeah right there. I reach the door thinking I’m gonna see her using her elbow or something on his back muscles. That is not what I saw at all. I peeked around the door and saw him in her mouth. Ronan is laid out on the table naked and she is massaging him alright. He looks over and sees me and I’m frozen. He looks up at the sky and releases.
Oh my goddess, I thought he and Bethany. She was just here for “the nooner”. I’m so confused and a little turned on. I quickly walk away. The rest of the night goes normal. I make dinner. We all sit down to eat; I can’t make eye contact with him without blushing. After dinner I wash the dishes and head to the gym. In the gym I find Jasper waiting for me.
“Wanna work out together?” Jasper asks.
“Don’t you work out with the pack every morning? Why do you need to work out more?”
“I just need to stay in shape.” He says smiling.
“Yeah, cause your so out of shape.” I say laughing.
But I agree to work out together. We warm up and start to go some weight training. He asks if I wanna work on some of the moves my dad has been teaching the warriors. I say sure and start.
He gets hot and takes off his shirt. Goddess that boy does not need a workout. Look at those abs I think to myself. “Don’t do that. He has a mate, and she is your friend.” Lola says. She’s right so I clear my head of those thoughts.
I start to sweat heavily, and I decide to take my shirt off. He has some really good moves he’s taught me. But I can’t take him down. We decide that’s enough for the night. It’s 10 and I’m in need of a shower. After all the hot and bothersome things, I’ve seen today I take my little waterproof friend into the shower with me.
After about 30 minutes I get out and get my pjs on and head to the living room. Jasper is there waiting he opens his covers and he snuggle up. I wake up to my alarm going off and I’m lying on top of Jasper. His morning friend is there.
I carefully move and try not to touch him as much as possible. I don’t want this to be weird between us. Usually, I find my way to bed each night. Last night I must have been super tired. As I start to walk toward the Alpha’s room, I hear Jasper’s alarm go off.
