Blood Moon Wolf

Chapter 4

Chapter 4
Xzavier
I was sat on the stage waiting for the judgement to start, the whole pack was gathering for this one. It wasn’t a surprise with the news going around everyone wanted confirmation if it was true. my father called me and Jackson in to his office around midday to inform us of the news. We had been so busy this Morning at the pack hospital helping out but on the way here i heard bits, Damon the cocky tw** what he was already tried to rape a young wolf... 16 years old i heard.  I was furious. I knew he hadnt found his mate yet and he didnt like that one bit.  I knew he had a thing for a she wolf. Always kept talking about how perfect her body was, about how he wanted to wrap her blonde hair in his fist while he fu**ed her.
So why would he attack someone underage? I turned 18 3 months ago, i hadnt found my mate yet either but i wouldnt try what Damon did. My sexual partners are willing always. If they ever told me to stop i would instantly. 
I had been out of the pack a lot lately taking more responsibility for when i become Alpha and Jackson Beta.
What shocked me even more in my fathers office is that young she wolf had shifted.  I was stunned to hear this. My father explained another wolf had shifted at 16, 20 years ago and was coming tomorrow to meet Mia.
The whole pack had almost arrived now and we where just waiting for a few more to arrive. I watched the door as Michael one of our pack warriors walked in followed shortly by his wife.
Then the scent hit me. An Intcing, beautiful mixture of  Cinnamon and Rain.
‘Mate' i heard storm say. I wanted to follow the scent to her. See her. Touch her. Claim her. Where is she?
I knew i was fidgeting in my seat, fighting against the urge to follow as future Alpha i had to be here. I couldn’t leave my post.
‘You ok man?’ Jackson asks through mind link.
‘She’s here  my mate.’ I link back. Turning to look at him I knew Jackson would notice something was up. He was my best friend. Like a brother to me. His eyes widened in shock. There was only pack here and since turning 18 i hadnt seen everyone in the pack so its no wonder i missed my mate.
‘Shit you spotted her yet'
‘No'
I look away from Jackson and back to the door but its closed everyone is here. Which means she’s in this room.
I scan the crowd but i cant see everyone some are hidden at the back behind others.
I notice my father get up to address the pack . I’m not listening. I’m still trying to spot my mate. 
But then Damon is  brought in by the guard and i know i have to listen to this part. I try to use every ounce of my being  to focus. The minute i spot Damon though it isnt hard. I want to punch him in his cocky face.  Im snarling at the sight of him.
The vote goes around and its between holding cell or banishment.
I vote to have him banished. I want him out.
I hear Jackson vote the same. Making it 4-4. My dad is the deciding vote.
Then i hear it, the beautiful song of her voice. It sends a shiver down my spine and warmth to my chest.
I close my eyes and just listen to her voice.  Then i actually listen to the words she is saying and i cant believe it.  She's asking for mercy for Damon. My view of her is obstructed by my Fathers huge frame. I don’t want to move to get a look at her and make it obvious to everyone.. so i listen. 
Is she Damon’s sister? Trying to ask we dont banish her brother.
But then I hear it.  ‘as the person he has hurt....’ my stomach drops.  I go from furious to down right murderous! 
She’s asking for us to show mercy on the person who tried to rape her!
I replay what she said in my mind and i realise i missed a part about trying to save another innocent girl from going though what she has this morning.  My heart warms again bringing the rage back down to a simmer.
She's thinking of others not herself.
When my dad votes to hold him in the cells i watch as the guards drag him back down.
Then my dad moves and i can see her about to walk out. And she is the most beautiful she wolf i have ever seen.
A body with perfect curves, better then any of those she wolves I’ve had sex with in the past... then i notice her long blonde hair and I’m hit with rage again. The she wolf Damon had a thing for has always been underage.  He just got tired of waiting for her to turn 18.  He wanted to take her. My mate!!! 
‘Mia is my mate’ i link to Jackson. He turns to me with wide eyes.
‘Jesus man what you going to do? Shes 16.’
‘I dont know, ill not touch her until shes of age but i need to talk to her’
We both rush out towards the front of the pack house.  I scan the lot looking for her.
When i see a head of blonde hair  i make my way to her and catch the end of her conversation with her dad.
“I am too" i say in response to being proud she had the guts to speak up.  No one else would have.
I watch as her and her dad turn around and see me an Jackson standing behind them. 
Her beautiful grey eyes widen slightly and think maybe she feels the bond too but then she bows her head and addresses me and Jackson. 
She doesn’t know I’m her mate.  I cant be wrong i can smell her scent stronger then anything and storm is going crazy in my head. I’m trying to keep control. Storm wants to claim her now. But I know she’s only 16 and we cant.
“ i wanted to come meet you, you’ve become the talk of the pack” i said. But that’s not the real reason.  I would have ran after her all the way to her house. Damn! This girl has me like a lost puppy already and this is the first time we have had an actual conversation.
“That’s unfortunate, I’m not fond of attention. That is more of my friend Courtney’s wheel house and lets not mention one of the reasons I’m currently in the spotlight.” she says looking down at her hands.
She may not like the attention but i think she feels ashamed of what happened to her. She shouldn’t be.
I could see how strong she was as a person. She just asked for mercy for someone who had hurt her only this morning.
I take a step forward and using my finder and thumb under her chin i gently life her head to meet my eyes again.  Fight damn hard to not just pull her in and claim those plush pouty lips.
“You have nothing to be ashamed of. That jackass does. I would have killed him the second he was found in the cabin. As I’m sure your father would have too..” I have no doubt he would have. Then I remember ill get to see her tomorrow and I smile  “besides you join training with us tomorrow afternoon. Me and Jackson will teach you and help make you stronger. Physically... your already strong every other way" i took a step back. I couldnt continue to be this close and look at her plump lips and not kiss them. I  started walking away backwards i needed some space between us and i need to talk to my dad. But I don’t take my eyes of hers.
“See you tomorrow, little wolf" I say.  I turn then making my way back to the pack house. I don’t hear her move for a few seconds until I hear her turn and run towards the car.
“Well... how do you feel flirting with a minor?” Jackson asks laughing. He didnt say a word during the whole exchange he just watched.
I punch him in the arm. Not hard but hard enough “Jesus man it’s different and you know it... Christ it took everything in me not to pull her in and kiss her. Storm is going crazy.”
“No doubt. Though if she has her wolf shouldn’t she have felt something. Realised your her mate?”
“i dont know she has shifted early. 2 years. How the hell am i going to make it 2 years. Just that little exchange drove me insane.”
“Dont think about 2 years how you going to get through tomorrow. We will be with her most of the day and sparing too. Damn.... i think this is going to be fun to watch"
I punch him again. This is going to be torture.  He just gave a full on bellow laugh.
“Seriously man... I’ve got your back always have. I like her. She seems smart, definitely mature for being young, she seems kind too but under that kindness i think she might really be fierce as hell just got to tap into what would really bring that out of her though.  I know she shifted this morning and she did some damage but another she wolf would have killed him then and there....” he pauses thinking but i know he isn’t done and i know he’s right. “I think we may need an assist from her dad and possibly her best friend tomorrow"
“You may be right.. come on i need to go talk to my dad” i sprint up the stairs of the pack house to my fathers office.
“Come in son.” My father says before i can even knock.
Me and Jackson walk in to find my dad and my mom, fixing their clothes.  Great. Just what wanted to walk in on.
Clearing my throat “sorry didnt mean to... interrupt" no matter how old you get its always going to be embarrassing  walking in on your parents.  I hear Jackson chuckle quietly behind me. Jacka**
“What is it?” my dad asks after a moment.
“I...ugh... i think i found my mate.”
“you think or you know?” my father asks.
“Well me and storm are 90% certain but she’s not 18 yet.. so its only one sided right now” i clarify
“who is she?” my mother asks.  Shes excited, she wants to be able to meet our future luna. Teach her, make her into a protégée. 
“That’s the thing.... it’s Mia Sanderson.”
There’s a moment of silence.
“ Well... im guessing even though she's got her wolf she hasnt felt the mate bond?”
“ I don’t think so but i do. It just took everything in me to control myself and storm during the short conversation. We just had.”
My father nods.
“I think she’s a lovely girl, brave. She would make a good Luna.” My mother adds
“I think she will too. She wasn’t afraid to speak up to me 2 times now. First in this office after the incident and even in front of the whole pack.  I have to say it was a little refreshing.” My father chuckles.
“we can get started on her Luna training." My mother says.
“But i dont want to tell her im her mate” they look at me widened eyes “ ... not because i don’t want her but i think i would like for her to feel it herself. I know it could mean waiting 2 years.”
“Maybe your right. If telling her your her mate she may feel obligated or like she’s being forced into it.” My mother always understands.
“Very well. It will just mean that she receives her training while being Luna.  She  will turn 18 2 months before your 20th birthday where you take over as Alpha. That should give her some time before and for the bond to be strengthened between you. Spend time with her. Get to know her it will strengthen the bond enough  before she feels it"
“Alpha, if you dont mind me adding i think we may have a little issue with training her tomorrow... not because of the mate bond... but even though she shifted and attacked Damon she only maimed him. Another she wolf who have killed him.. i think she’s conscious to others suffering i would to invite her friend to help as i dont think she will fight unless she thinks someone she cares for is in danger.”
“and are you certain that would be the case?” my father asks
“i mean i could be wrong, we will try the normal way first before resorting to extreme measures.. but i think she cares more for other people then herself.  Good trait for a Luna but since we wont be telling her that information, i cant use it.”
“Very well.”  My father nods
With that we leave my fathers office.
“Are you really planning what i think you are Jackson?”
“I wont do it if its not necessary”  he says rubbing the back of his neck.
Jesus... tomorrow is going to be a hard day.
