War of Wolves

Chapter 1: Hotel receptionist

Jake's P.O.V

I can smell her, but she isn't here, she was here, a couple of years ago, but she is still close, I can feel it. Why can't finding a mate be easy? I've been looking for years! No, don't think like that! Your mate deserves me looking for her, she will be perfect. I can tell, she deserves the effort and love I can give her! I can feel that she was in pain here, I don't know who or what caused it, but I will rip them to shreds for it!

"Jake! Pay attention!" Ms. Marriott glared at me, the other students weren't don't much better seeing as it was near the end of the year and prom was next week, I think that the only that was on all of the students minds right now, I don't think they care about the math lesson going on. Neither did I, I could answer every single question she threw at me about actually, anything probably, especially history, even though I know it has nothing to do with maths.

"Jake! Pay attention! I'm not going to say it a third time, tell me what the answer is to this question!" She yelled at me pointing at a long algebraic equation on the board, it me about 2 seconds to figure it out.

"2m plus 5c over 11x" I said sighing, you would think that because it was my first day of school here they would give me some leeway, but no. Maybe that's one of the things my mate was upset about here? I inhale some more of her faint sent, it's enough to keep me going for years, but actually seeing her and breathing in a more concentrated version of her scent would be amazing! I look around the classroom to see everyone staring at me. I snapped up and looked at Ms. Marriott, she was looking at the door where a man stood. Oh shit, he was asking for me. Oh shit. Somehow I am standing up grabbing my books and walking out of the classroom.

"Mr. William, luna was very upset this morning that you weren't there for breakfast and that you didn't leave your mind link open. She has asked that I give you 1/2 of being in school before getting you home." He says looking at me blankly.

"Fine Maxwell, but I have news and I think you and Mother and Father will be happy and I no longer need to attend this school." I say in a serious tone and Maxwell takes my bag and I follow him to the car park where my car is, my beautiful beautiful car.

"You didn't scratch it right! You didn't get the car dirty or anything." I say looking at my baby. Maxwell just smiles and stifles a laugh.

"Nothing happened to your car, you really are quite protective of it!" He says letting a small chuckle escape his lips.

"Well I am the alpha's son, so what do you expect, now pass me the keys. I'm driving." I order, Maxwell chucks me the keys and I warm him not to breathe on my car, he just smiles and nods. I drive out of the carpark and back to the pack house, I think this school I have been to was actually the closest to the pack house only 30 minutes, I wonder why we didn't look here first. I park the car and get out followed by Maxwell who gives me my bag and I race inside and up to my room on the top floor. I open the door and leave my bag on my bed before racing back downstairs to be greeted by almost a quarter of my pack.

"Maxwell says you have some good news for us Jake!" My mother cries as soon as she sees me.

"Yeah, well it's nothing really, but I FOUND MY MATE!!" I shout and everybody looks really happy and someone gets the champagne out.

"Where is she?" My mother asks starting to look concerned.

"Um, well the thing is, I haven't actually meet her. But I smelt her a school, it was very very faint, the only reason I smelt it was because of alpha blood. The sent would have to be about 3 years old, but after this I will trace it back to her. You have no idea how happy I am!" I say and my mother beams.

"I think I do actually, it was like that when I found your father-" my mother started and everybody let out a collective groan. My mother huffed.

"Fine then I won't tell you!" My mother says before turning to the pantry to get out the champagne classes. As soon as she turns around everybody starts silently dancing, happy that we don't have to hear how she and my father met for the a billionth time. Trust me, it's very boring! VERY! Well it was actually romantic the first time I heard it, but every other time it was terrible. BORING.
