Chapter 16:

Mya’s P.O.V

“Mya. Will you calm down” Damon said, wrapping his arms around me. But I couldn’t calm down and not even his touch was calming me. I didn’t know why I was letting myself get this worked up. I guess it was just the thought that Jax was coming back, but he was coming back alone. Because well apparently Luce wasn’t ready to come home yet. I mean how could she not be ready to come home! I missed my best friend like hell, so how could she not miss me. We’d been practically joined at the hip since we were little and told each other everything. So Luce’s sudden distanced behaviour was really getting to me. I thought out of everyone she would have contacted me at some point. I mean it has been over three months! But sadly not.  “Mya, baby. I hate seeing you so high rate” Damon says softly in my ear. “I know. I’m sorry. I guess I just expected different from Luce” I say sighing. He hugs me tighter. “She will be home before you know it babe” he says and I nod though I’m not so sure. But I have to believe that right? ‘Yeah right. I can’t convince myself let alone anyone else who’s asked. I’m just a fantastic friend and Luna aren’t I?’ I thought sarcastically. “You are an amazing Luna and friend Mya, don’t ever doubt that” Damon said, lifting my chin so my gaze meets his and I can see the sincerity of his words in his eyes. “Reading my thoughts again. Tut tut” I tease and he just blushes which just causes me to chuckle. ‘God I love him’ I thought before blushing knowing he’d heard that thought too. “I love you too Mya” he says grinning. I just shake my head at him. “Your always snooping in my brain. Your worse than the FBI invading computer systems for information!” I say causing him to laugh. “Loving the comparison babe” he says chuckling. I just shake my head. “I’m going to greet Jax. He will be home soon” I say turning away from him. But not moments later his arms are wrapped around my waist causing tingles to shoot through my body. “No we will go meet him together. A united front. He’s going to need it” Damon says and I nod, before we walk out the office together to meet Jax.

Jax’s P.O.V

Reaching the pack house I couldn’t help the pain that echoed through my body. This wasn’t how it was suppose to be. I wasn’t suppose to be walking back up to this house alone. I was suppose to be walking up to it hand in hand with Luce. Or well at least with Luce around somewhere if not beside me. But sadly that wasn’t the case. I just hoped she actually came through and returned within the month. Because I really was serious about hunting her back down and dragging her ass back here, whether I have to do it with her kicking and screaming or not.

I sighed and headed inside only to be ambushed by Mya. “Jax!” she practically screamed in my ear. “Mya!” I screamed back deciding the only way out of this awkward greeting was to give her the same excitement back. I heard Damon chuckle as Mya wrapped her arms around me. “You came back” she said happily and I nodded. Not trusting my voice as thoughts of Luce crashed through my head. “Come on little mate. Let the poor guy go before you choke him to death” Damon said, pulling his mate back. I couldn’t help but shoot a look of thanks at Damon. As much as I loved Mya and appreciated what she was trying to do, it was sadly not what I needed right now. He nodded in understanding and I smiled slightly. “I’m going to head to my room anyway” I said and Damon nodded before leading Mya away into the living room, leaving me to head to my room in peace. Walking into my room I sat on the bed in defeat. I’d only been away from my mate for about half a day now and it was killing me already. In fact it had been killing since the moment I had to walk away from her. I hated it and so did my wolf. Deciding I needed to do something I dragged my ass up and went to get a shower, because well I stunk and there wasn’t much else to do anyway because without Luce here I felt rather lost. As pathetic as that sounded. But to be fair for about six months leading to her birthday I’d spent most days with her. Then when she ran I spent the three months looking for her. So I’d always been doing something linked to Luce. Now all I was doing was waiting around for her to show up. All I knew was it was going to be a long month and I only prayed she’d come to her senses sooner and be home before the month deadline, so I could hold her in my arms sooner.

After washing and then standing in the shower until the water had long since gone cold, I decided it was probably time I shut off the water and stepped out. So I did just that. Drying myself off and pulling on some fresh underwear and a pair of dark denim jeans, deciding to not bother with a t-shirt because well. I just felt a little to aggravated and more clothes against my skin meant more agitation. So yes no top. Instead I wandered back downstairs and headed to the kitchen. Because as sad as I was a guy had to eat. “Hey” I muttered to Damon as I headed into the kitchen. “Hey. There’s food in the microwave. Mya made you a plate up, she thought you would be hungry” he said and I smiled. Trust Mya. “You will have to tell her thanks” I said. “Tell who thanks?” Mya said as she came in through the back door and grabbed some orange juice from the fridge. “You. Thank you for the food.” I said before grabbing the plate of steak and chips with gravy from the microwave. It was still hot which explained why I’d smelt food when showering. My mouth watered at the sight of it and I couldn’t wait to delve into it. “It alright. Don’t want you starving now, do we?” she said chuckling. I just rolled my eyes and dug into my food. “Woah. Okay calm down. No one is going to take it off you” Mya teased and I just grinned at her after finishing the last mouthful. She chuckled. “Well I’m glad you enjoyed it” she said before taking away my plate before I had chance to do it myself. I swear that woman was almost as quick as my mate. I winced slightly at the thoughts of Luce. I had to stop doing this to myself. If I kept thinking like this I would need admitting to a mental hospital before the month was out, then what sort of a mate would I be when Luce came back. That’s right an insane one. Which is not cool. Well not if you’re the negative kind of insane. Which I would be. “Hello, earth to Jax” Mya said waving her hand in my face. “Erm yes?” I questioned and she just shook her head. “You didn’t hear a word of what ive just said did you?” she questioned, her hand on her hip in a stance that was just begging me to deny it. I shook my head. “Nope not a word. Sorry Mya.” I said innocently and she rolled her eyes and muttered something that sounded something like ‘Guys!’. I couldn’t help but chuckle at this. Which naturally earned me a scowl from Mya. “What did you say?” I said as a way to defuse the situation. “I said. Tonight is movie night and you are joining us whether you like it or not” Mya said simply and I just shook my head. I really wasn’t up to movie night with the guys. I would just be a major buzz kill to everyone in the pack that attended. “Erm Jax…what part of ‘you are joining whether you like it or not’ did you not quite understand?” Mya questioned and I just sighed. “Fine” I muttered in defeat and she skipped off out the room happily. I just shook my head. “I don’t know how you do it” I said to Damon who chuckled. “With great difficulty I assure you” he said chuckling. “I heard that!” Mya’s voice came drifting through the doorway from wherever it was she’d gone. We both just chuckled. “Well I’m going to head to the gym and tone up a bit before see you later” I said and Damon nodded as I walked out the room to the pack gym. I didn’t really need the work out. But the workout might keep my mind occupied enough that it wouldn’t go mad with thoughts of Luce. 

Or so I hoped.
