Jia's pov

It had been 2 months since the incident at Brittany's place. That slap made me realise to train myself harder. If I wanted to be a Warrior then I must work very hard for it.

School was over and I was training full time now. And yet again my handsome mate has vanished. He is gone for 3 days and I have no clue when he is coming back, but he better turn up today. It’s his birthday tomorrow and we were going to his parents' place today... hopefully!

'Don't worry he will come' Ara assured me.

'Why do you always take his side?' I asked her.

'Come on girl, we are all on the same side' she said.
'Whatever'

I was getting ready for my training session with Kiara. I went down in search of Michelle and Brittany. Brittany has joined training with us. Yes she is now aware of us and has accepted everything wholeheartedly. She also became a member of the pack, by taking a blood oath in front of Alpha. She swore loyalty toward her mate and pack. She was now bound to Alpha's orders. And can you believe, Jake has already marked her.

What were WE waiting for????

When she started staying at the pack house, she found something was not right here. She kept asking me questions. 'Why you all stay together, why are your parents not here? How come all your cousins stay with their boyfriends and girlfriends? Why do you refer to God as a goddess?' I told Jake to tell her everything before she drives me crazy, and he did exactly that.

Flashback

I and Viktor were watching a movie after dinner, snuggling on the couch when there was a knock on the door.
Viktor was annoyed.

"Why does he have to always disturb us?" he said, getting irritated. He could smell Jake from anywhere. When I went and opened the door, as Viktor had said, it was Jake standing at the door with a goofy smile on his face. He came inside and hugged me tight.

"Thanks Jia, thank you so much. I love you." He said still hugging me.

We heard a huge growl behind me. Jake let go of me and went to Viktor.

"Don't be jealous, I love you too" he said and kissed Viktor on the cheek. It was so funny. Viktor pushed him aside

"Are you drunk" Viktor almost yelled at Jake, wiping his cheek with back of his hand

" I am drunk in love, my dear friend" Jake said as if in a trance
.
"Please enlighten us, about your presence at this hour" Viktor said, crossing his arms on his chest.

"I told her everything, and she accepted me" Jake beamed.

I was shocked! I looked at Viktor and he had the same expression on his face.

"And...I...marked her too." Jake said with the same silly smile on his face.

"WHAT???" Both I and Viktor said at once.

Kiara told us to run 10 laps of the ground to warm up. As we were running, I was hit by the most amazing smell. Scent of my mate. He was back, I started looking around. I was so happy. Ara was jumping with joy. Soon I found he was running right beside me, our arms almost brushing. I looked at him, he gave me one of his sweetest smiles, but I will not get affected by that. No. I looked away and started running ahead, leaving him behind.

He overtook me and turned around, running backwards. I checked him from head to toe. Ok, no injuries this time. He smiled again at me and  I sighed at his cuteness. How can I resist him? He looked so handsome and I missed him a lot. I can't remain angry with him for long. I smiled back at him, blushing, that made him smile wider. He winked at me and ran off, turning around, towards the group of men training on the other side of the ground.
