Sophia's POV
"So what's your story? How did you become gamma of the most powerful pack in the continent?" I ask Jacob.
"Well I grew up with Titus and Brody. Our moms were friends and we were inseparable. As we grew older nothing changed and when Alpha Derek died we helped him get through it," He explains.
"Have you found your mate yet?" I ask. When I mention mate his eyes soften.
"I had a mate. I mean I still do but she left me for someone else. They're in Europe now traveling their world," He says. "As long as she's happy then that's all I need to know to keep my wolf at bay."
"But she's your mate doesn't it hurt you and your wolf that she's with another man?" I ask. It's strange that he's happy for her knowing she's not with him.
"When I turned 18 I wanted to find my mate and make her happy. If that means that I have to let her go with someone else and she's happy I'm okay with that. Maybe I'll find someone else someday," He sighs. I want him to. He would treat her well and take care of her.
"So Sophie what do you want to do?" He ask leaning back in his chair.
"Am I allowed outside of the pack house?" I ask. I know that Titis doesn't want me outside because he doesn't want unmatted males looking at me even though his house was separated from the others.
"No from Titus' orders," he says. "Sorry."
"It's fine," I sigh.
"What did you want to do?" He asks.
"I wanted to use the garden that surrounds this house," I say. When I first got here, he said thatI could use it.
"Give me a second let me ask him." He looks like he spaced out so I assumed he mind linked him.
'Mates wolf is calling for us,' my wolf suddenly says.
'Wait Titus?,' I ask her.
'No Terry,' she says. I was shocked. He didn't want us when we left and I'm pretty sure he doesn't want us still. He had Kira but I think his wolf still knows who his mate really is. I haven't really given much thought to him.
'Tell him to back off,' I said deciding my response.
'I already did,' she says. There were snaps in front of my face that snapped me out of my conversation with my wolf.
"Titus said that you can go out into the garden with my supervision," He informs me. I give him a big smile and immediately stand up.
---
I walk back into Titus' house sweaty and tired from all the work I did.
"I'm going to take a shower real quick," I tell Jacob.
"Okay. What would you like for dinner?" He asks before I get into my room.
"Surprise me," I say than lock myself in my room. I sigh and fling myself on my bed. I spent the day pulling weeds out of the garden and putting fresh dirt for flowers I want to plant. I grab a towel of the top shelf of the rack in my bathroom and take a nice hot bath.
I walk out and take a pair of short shorts and a loose tank top. I quickly braid my damp hair and walk out of my room. The aroma of chicken and carrots fills the kitchen.
