Alpha Jax

~Jax~

When I was with her I was playful and happy. But now that she’s gone, I feel sad and depressed.

When Dakota left, I knew I had to get on her good side, in our human form of course. She was amazing at scratching my head! Her nails were so long and it felt so nice! No one could ever get me to act like that. Not even my friends and family.

My third in command Logan found his mate Destiny, my Beta Jacob-his mate was Dakota’s sister Layla, Riley found her mate-Sean who is Dakota’s older brother, and I found my mate, Dakota.

She was the perfect mate in the whole world. If I had gotten someone else I would have accepted them too, but I got lucky.

Her beautiful green eyes and her blonde hair and her lightly tanned skin, made her look more desirable looking.

When I had my head on her lap I felt the tingles go through me, every time she touched me. But when she kissed my nose they intensified.

I ran all the way home, excited to tell my parents and siblings I found my mate.

I got there in five minutes and when I got to the house, I went to the back yard and shifted. I grabbed a pair of shorts and boxers from my stash in a box in the bushes. I put them on and ran inside. I saw my mom cooking dinner and my dad was reading the paper, while my brother was playing video games upstairs and my sister was gossiping with her friends upstairs.

I ran to my parents’ house, because even though I moved out months ago to my mansion about four miles away from my parent’s house, I still wanted to let them know.

So I ran upstairs to their rooms.

I went to Kyle’s room first.

I banged on the door as loud as I could until he opened it. He looked me like I was insane.

“I have some news, go downstairs and wait for me and Angela please,” I said, sounding excited and he shrugged and went downstairs. I then ran to Angela’s room and barged in.

“Jax! Don’t you knock?!” She said and her friend giggled. I smiled at her and engulfed her in a hug. She hugged back cause she never got that mad at me.

“I have some good news. All of you come downstairs with me.” I said and I couldn’t stop smiling. They all shrugged like Kyle and went downstairs. I ran in front of them and smiled at my parents. I kissed my mother on her cheek and hugged my father. He hugged back of course, cause I’m special. They all sat down at the table and I took a few deep breaths.

“Why am I here?” Kyle asked while getting comfortable in his chair.

“What’s the good news, Jax?” Maria-Angela’s friend asked me.

“Jax come on tell us!” My mother said and all I do was look at both of them. They need an idea of what’s going on.

“Mom, how did you and dad meet?” I asked, putting my head in my hands, and elbows on the counter. I smiled at them and my siblings and Angela’s friend looked bored out of their minds.

“Why do you ask Jax? You never wanted to know before.” My father said and he looked deep in thought for a minute.

“Well, you two are mates,” I paused and they both nodded-probably wondering where I was going with this.

“What does this torture have to do with anything?” Kyle whined and straightened up and I gave him the look. He thought for a second before looking more confused.

“Yeah Jax, where are you going with this?” Maria asked in a cautious tone and I smiled at her.

“Well I just wanted to tell you that Riley, Logan, Jacob and I found our mates today, but since you don’t find this exciting, I guess I’ll leave,” I said and my mother practically jumped out of her seat.

“Oh my goddess, Jax! That’s wonderful!” She engulfed some in a bone-crushing hug. I smiled and hugged my mom back.

“Congratulations son. I’m proud of you.” My father gave me a pat on the back.

“This is fantastic! Now you, me, your mate and Derek can go on double dates!” Angela said and I hid behind mom.

“No!” I said in my Alpha tone and she backed down immediately. I smiled but my mom smacked me upside the head.

“Sweet! That’s awesome, can I go back upstairs now to my mate?” Kyle asked eagerly and I sighed but nodded. He jumped out of his seat and tripped going up the steps. We all laughed at how he fell.

“Someone’s eager!” We laugh at him and he glared at us all before he went back to his room.

Angela and Maria went back upstairs and I heard Derek come through the window.

“So, when am I getting grandchildren?” My mom asked and I made a horrifying noise that sounded like a dying whale.

“Oh no! Mom don’t say that yet! My goddess!” I yell and hold my hands over my ears and drop to the ground while my mom laughs and my dad chuckles.

“Jax, when you are ready, use protection. I don't want her to get into trouble.” He said which made my mom laugh more and I just ran outside to where I saw Riley, Logan, and Jacob holding their ears as well.

“Jax! They started talking about grandchildren! Yeah, that would be amazing, but not right now!” Logan said as I smelled the air. There was a hint of Dakota in it. So she isn’t that far away. I take a deep breath and I smile.

I run into the forest, shifting into my wolf Ryder.

I ran towards her scent and when I found her, it was at the clearing. She was sitting there with Destiny and Layla.

I decided to wait a bit.

“So, Dakota, I dare you to jump into the lake,” Layla said and she shrugged.

Dakota started to take off her shorts and her tank top, leaving her in only her bra and panties.

I felt so turned on. I growled lowly, but I was thankful they didn’t hear me. Dakota started climbing the tree to where a rope was, and when she reached the top, she grabbed the rope, jumped and lands in the water. Destiny and Layla were laughing when Dakota came out shivering and soaking wet.

“Happy now?” She asked and I couldn’t help it. I stalked quietly towards Dakota. Layla and Destiny got the message so they stayed quiet. When Dakota was fully dressed I ran and trampled her.

“AH!” She screamed as we tumbled down the little hill and the others laughed at us.

When we stopped rolling she had leaves in her hair and she looked scared to death. I laid on her gently, just to make her warm since she was shivering. She snuggled up against me and I licked her cheek. She giggled and I turned around when I heard footsteps. I saw Jacob and Logan run-up to Destiny and Layla.

“Hi!” They both squealed as they rubbed their bellies.

I smiled at their behavior and when I looked down and Dakota, she was looking at me with admiration. I smiled at her and she smiled back. I rubbed my nose against hers and she giggled a bit.

It’s almost as if we were humans together.

That would be amazing. I would get to know her better and it would be perfect.

But that’s not the case.

I’m a werewolf, and she’s a human. She would hate me and never want to talk to me.

I whimpered at the thought and she started to pet me in a comforting way. I leaned into her touch and I heard the guys talking to me through the pack link.

‘What’s wrong Jax?’ Logan asked me.

‘Yeah, you never sound like that bro. What’s up?’ Jacob asked me as Layla cuddled under him cause she was cold. He laid over her protectingly and I smiled and Dakota started to fall asleep under me.

‘I just realized something. In order to get Dakota to accept Ryder and me, we have to meet up with them in human form. We then have to gain their trust. But until then, were just plain old animals to them..’ I said and when the other’s didn't reply, only whimpered, I knew they understood. The girls were wide awake when they heard our small cries.

“What’s wrong? Why are you crying?” Dakota asks me as I snuggle up closer to her, wanting to feel her for a while longer before we have to go back.

If I could tell her, I would. But that’s not happening for a while.

“Ok, guys we need to get going. We’re going to get in trouble if we don’t go. Remember how we said we were going to the mall tomorrow at noon?” Once Destiny said that Logan, Jacob and I looked at each other and nodded. We would meet at the mall tomorrow at noon.

Until then, we carried them back to Dakota’s house, where Sean and their dad were waiting for them. Dakota fell asleep on my back, while Destiny is half asleep and Layla is forcing herself to stay awake.

“Thank you, guys. We were starting to get worried for a little bit.” Their father said and messed up the fur on my head. I growled playfully at him and got in a stance that dogs get into when they want to play. He laughed and he shook his head at us.

“Now go on, your pack is probably worrying about you three.” He said and went inside with Layla, Destiny, and Dakota.

Tomorrow was going to be a blast when they see us.
