Wrong Assumptions
Jax POV:
“What is going on here?” Nova growls her eyes showing Kia is prominent in her mind.
“These rogues don’t belong here” the warrior that spat at the other man growls.
“Nand pack?” Nova demands coming to stand in front of him.
“Ben, warrior of the Dark Night Pack” he says proudly.
“And you?” Nova asks turning to the the other man who showed aggression.
“Trevor, warrior of the High Mountain Pack” he says although his voice falters slightly
when he meets Novas furious gaze.
| see Novas eyes glaze over momentarily and realise she must be notifying their
Alphas. “Ok, letask again what was going on here?” She snaps her aura bristling
with unspoken anger.
“We were reminding these rogues that they don’t belong here” Ben snarls.
“Calmly” | growl at him as he realises my presence for the first time.
“Alpha Jax” he startles.
“And why don’t they belong here?” Nova asks as | don’t say anything further to Ben.
“Because they're filthy mutts that’s why, they kill, rape and beat our pack members”
he retorts.
“Did these men in particular show you any aggression?” Nova asks him to which he
simply rolls his eyes.
“They didn’t have to..” he starts before | stride up to him and shove him hard again the wall, my forearm across
his throat.
“Show my Luna respect, you're only a warrior. Remember your place” | snarl with Zeus growling loudly in my
head.
“Luna?” He gasps his eyes widening to look at Nova. “I apologise..l didn’t meet you earlier.”

“And why was that?” | ask him with narrowed eyes.
“I was on the phone to my mate” he mutters.
“Ben” | hear Alpha Brad shout furiously angrily as he arrives. “Did my words to you
before I left fall on deaf ears?”
Pushing more of my weight against him | growl lightly for him to answer his Alpha.” I'm sorry Alpha, she was
calling nonstop and | didn’t want to worry her” he gasps fighting for breath before I drop him as he collapses to
the floor.
“Your mate knows what's at stake here, tell Lauren she should also heed the warning her Alpha gave, you both
will suffer the consequences when we are back at the pack” Brad snarls angrily. “Incompetent fool.”
“Now” Nova calls gathering the attention of the warriors as the members of her
father’s pack attempt to fade away. “Don’t go” she says shooting them a look
stopping them in their tracks.
“Lettell you this once and once only” she growls, “these rogue pack members are
here under the leadership of MY father. He is the new Rogue King and is a Guardian.
Wolf, he is bringing order and peace to the rogues and giving them a chance at a
better life. They cause no harm, no aggression and have worked hard to make their
life's better for themselves and their families.”
“How do we know that?” Trevor interrupts causing Nova to snarl at his interruption.
“Listen and do not interrupt boy” | hear Kia speak through Nova causing the warrior to snap his mouth shut
immediately and take a step back.
“They have all taken a binding oath with their pack witch, if they hurt anyone that isn’t ordered by my father
then they quite simply die. They are fighting the scause as us and they belong here just as much as any of
you do..is that clear?” Nova shouts looking around as everyone hesitantly agrees,
“If you call these gentlemen mutts or even rogues again you will haveto deal with. Yes they are part of a
rogue pack but that right there should explain something to you, they are PACK members. Do they scent as
strongly as normal rogues we encounter?” Nova cleverly points out. Taking in a breath | realise she’s right,
although they have an undertone of rogue scent they also have the heavy scent of forest wood

and grass. “They do not pose a threat to any of us, in fact the only ones here that
have shown aggression are you blo ody idiots.” With that the men begin to look
embarrassed by their earlier actions.
“Can | ask your name?” Nova asks the rogue member gently as he looks at the ground.
“M..me?"” He stutters as Nova smiles softly.
“Yes you” she chuckles.
“I am Nathan Luna” he says clearly.
“If you feel comfortable can you please explain why you were a rogue in the first place?” She asks. “If you don’t
wish to then don’t feel like you have to.”
“No Luna I'm happy to share” he says looking up as he lifts his chin proudly. “I was a warrior in my previous
pack. But when the Alphas daughter turned 18 she turned out to be my mate, her father was not happy she was
mated to a simple warrior, one that was adopted at that and after she rejected| was banished from the pack
and declared a rogue so as not to embarrass them further in front of other packs.”
“That's awful” Nove says frowning, “honestly Jax I'm so relieved to be a part of this pack at times” she says to
me.
too” | say, proud of the fact we are accepting and understanding of others. “But surely you cfrom a
family with alpha blood or even Beta blood if you were mated to an alphas daughter. | sense Beta blood in you
for sure” | ask Nathan.
“I believe so Alpha yes, but because no one knew my parents, they simply didn’t believe it” he says with a
shrug.
“So you see he wasn’t a rogue because he chose to be” | say turning to the warriors who are looking at him in a
new light. “Can | ask if you've ever caused harm to others?
“I have” he admits, “I have killed those that attackedfor being a rogue before becoming the member i am
today. But | never once started a fight, it was kills that were in self defence and | can happily vow that to before
the moon Goddess. In the previous Alpha Kings reign | was almost killed for defying his order, | refused to kill a

and already suffered plenty.”
“Good man” | praise. “Thank you for sharing with us.”

“Do you all think he’s a mutt now? A dirty rogue?” Nova asks as she stands strong in front of the visiting pack
members.
“No Luna” Ben mutters.
“Of course a woman would stick up for a worthless mutt” | hear a voice mutter from the back as Novas glare
turns cold and menacing.
“Whoever just said that cforward” she commands her aura pulsing out as the warriors step back from the
force of it, shocked at the power emanating from her.
A young teen stumbles forward as Alpha Brad groans from behind him, “f**k sake Max” he growls.
“Alpha?” he asks in horror as he nears Nova despite his unwillingness, looking around desperately for help.
“I'm not helping you, this is for Luna Nova to handle” Brad says to his pack member. I'm ashamed by the both
you right now” he scowls to him and Ben who looks embarrassed. “I'll deal with you later.”
“Why would it matter if a woman stuck up for them?” Nova commands not giving him a chance to answer freely.
“Women are weak and too emotionally involved” the teen says looking horrified at having to admit his thoughts.
Grasping his throat with her claws extending, Nova bares her fangs before asking calmly, “do | look weak right
now?”
“N..no Lu..Luna” he stutters out.
Nova simply growls in response before flinging him 15ft away to the land on the gravel drive as gasps are heard
around us at her strength. “Se xiest pig” | hear her mutter before she turns to address everyone again.
“Respect one another, help one another and most importantly. Do. Not. Fight” she growls. “We have bigger
problems than this, | want you all to make an effort to speak my father’s pack members and perhaps you won't

next time. How embarrassing you think it’s ok to act like this” she says looking pointedly at Ben and Trevor the
main instigators.
“Have a word with them” | say to Alpha Brad and Alpha Edward who look noticeably embarrassed with their pack
members. “She might not go so easy next time” | warn them as Nova stalks towards us angrily.
“They need to learn srespect” she growls storming past us all.
Waiting for her to be out of sight | storm up to Ben, Trevor and Max who has cstumbling over rubbing his
head where he hit it on the ground. Drawing my arm back | punch each of them in the stomach making them
crumble to the floor. “Take this as a lesson, do not ever disrespect my Luna or anyone else here. Listen to your
Alphas, if | ever see you behave like this again you'll regret it. Got it?” | snarl Zeus growling in my mind.
“Yes Alpha” they groan from the floor.
“They're yours now” | say to the other Alphas before stalking away to find my angry Luna.
