Nova POV:
“That was a surprise” Naomi says as we leave the stage.
“It was meant to be” I smirk, “but you both deserve it and it just makes sense doesn’t it.”
Hearing them both agree I grin before feeling Jax approach. “I’m so proud of you, so strong” he says with admiration as he wraps his arms around my waist.
I
“I’m glad we got to enjoy this” I say smiling as I turn to face him. “Shall we go mingle?
I suggest looking at the crowd waiting to congratulate us personally.
“Let’s” he agrees eagerly.
“Nova!” I hear my brothers booming voice as he comes running to me before lifting me in the air. “I’m so happy for you” he says emotionally into my ear as he lowers me to the ground. “You are an amazing Luna and you will do a wonderful job for this pack.”
“Thanks Luca” I whisper holding back tears from his words.
“Stunning” Sophie exclaims as she gently hugs me, “you were born for this role..and this dress is made for you.”
“Literally” I say with a laugh, twirling I wink at her, “Alice is talented isn’t she.”
“Very” she agrees.
Seeing her confidence I smile proudly, “you both look extremely happy” I comment to them as Luca holds her close to him.
“We are” he says with a genuine smile. “The pack love her and it’s brought some joy back for them.”
“I’m glad to hear it” I say as I see Axton approach. Seeing his brows furrowed as he takes large sniffs of the air I look at him with wide eyes.
“Congratulations” he says happily before looking around slightly. Bringing his
attention back to us I smile knowingly. “I’m really happy for you both, you look perfect

together.”
“Thank you Alpha” Jax says graciously, “I’m glad you could make it today.”

“I’d say you’re the glad one aren’t you Axton” I say slyly as he looks at me blankly. Pointing to my nose he blushes as he c***s his head.
“It might be nothing” he mutters.
“Or it could be everything” I counter staring at him as everyone else looks at us. confused.
“Trust you to notice” he chuckles as he looks around again.
“Alpha?” Luca asks looking at him with concern. “If this is too much you don’t..”
I
“No no” Axton says waving his hand, “trust me I’m glad I came, I am genuinely happy. for the both of you and wish you nothing but the best.”
“Then?” Luca asks with furrowed brows.
“I think I smell my mate..but it’s faint” Axton admits with confusion. Once he says that
I grasp Jaxs arm as he looks at me at the same time.
“What if..?” He links me surprised.
“I know” I link him back excitedly.
“Hey, how about I go grab us some drinks and you can tell us about your first few
days at your new home, Axton id like to hear all about it” I say ensuring he stays close. before rushing off.
Seeing who I’m after I grasp her arm lightly, “Nova! You ok?” She asks seeing my slightly flushed face.
“Don’t ask why but could you please come with me quickly?” I ask quietly as she nods in confusion.
As we reach the group I see Jax grin.
“I didn’t get drinks but look who I found on my travels” I exclaim catching Lucas eye,” this is Mila..Jaxs sister.”
With that Axton spins around quickly and locks eyes with Mila, seeing his confusion as well as hers as she subtly try’s to take a breath of his scent I grin at the others.

Axton quickly shakes himself off as he extends his hand out, “it’s a pleasure to meet you Mila, I’m Alpha Axton of the White Mountain Pack.”
She cautiously extends her hand to shake his and as they meet she gasps softly.” What..?” She whispers staring at their hands.
“Sparks?” Jax asks knowingly.
“How did you know?” Axton asks confused as he also looks at their joint hands.
With a deep breath Mila speaks quickly, clearly wanting to get the obvious out for everyone to know, “I rejected my first mate….he has yet to accept the rejection.”
“Oh..” Axton says looking slightly crestfallen.
“I think you’re my second chance” she whispers nervously as she looks up to see his eyes widen in realisation as a smile stretches across his face.
“That’s why they’re faint” he murmurs to himself. “Mate” he smiles before pulling her in close burrowing his head in her hair.
Seeing Alia move forward in Milas eyes she says “mate” clearly once they step back to look at one another again.
“Congratulations sister” Jax says as he k*sses her cheek. “Alpha Axton, I think it’s about time don’t you.”
“You can say that again” he mutters as he continues to stare at Mila in awe.
Quickly hugging Mila I offer my congratulations to the pair along with Luca and Sophie. “Mila why don’t you fill him in on everything, I think after next week you will both feel the bond properly. Although I think Alia has made it quite clear” I add on looking at Milas face as she blushes.
“Thank you Nova” she says k*ssing my cheek as Jax and I turn to walk away.
“Jax, Nova” I hear Amelia shout as we turn to see her with two drinks ready for us. Congratulations” she squeals as she hugs us both hard.
“Amelia this is absolutely stunning” I say motioning to the gardens. “It’s more than I could have ever hoped for.”
“Jax said you like your flowers and I thought this is just beautiful out here, it’s perfect

for the both of you” she says happily grasping my hands.
“You might want to go see your daughter” Jax says with a mischievous smirk. “Why?” She asks sharply, “oh goddess she’s not drunk already is she?”
Hearing that I splutter a laugh into my drink as Jax snorts next to me. “No ma” he laughs before he points to where Axton and Mila are sat close together chatting quietly on a bench.
