Alpha Ace and his Undercover Mate

I perked up at surprise, already jumping up and getting dressed. I really needed a mood lifter after the week I've had.

"What is it?" I asked eagerly, pulling on a top.

"Right this way"

I followed him down the stairs and towards the living room where I heard muffled voices. They got clearer as we walked, and a very familiar scent washed my nose.

"Jane!" I squealed as I entered the living room, cutting off her and Lilly's conversation and jumping on her.

"And Jace" I heard him say with a faked hurt look on his face. I quickly shot him a smile as I released Jane and hugged Jace too.

Soon after, I pulled both of them in a long, long , long hug.

"You guys don't know how happy I am to see you."

"I thought you might need someone to talk to. I'm here for you sis" Jane mumbled and my heart soared for her.

It's not that I couldn't have talked to Lilly, but I wasn't comfortable talking about my mate that I almost screwed over, to the Beta's mate who I almost screwed over.

"Thank you, I really do"

"We can go right now if you li-"

She stopped suddenly as I felt her body grow tense in my arms. Jace noticed it too as he stepped away from our embrace and watched her weirdly.

She slowly turned around and her eyes landed on something in the doorway. I followed her gaze, seeing a very stunned Scott mimicking her reaction.

I looked between the two of them as I knew too well that type of feeling. Soon after, Scott's face broke out in a grin and in two steps he was already in front of her and scooping her up in his arms. She giggled sweetly as he lifted her and spun her around, her eyes filled with tears.

Lilly, Aiden, Jace and I watched them in awe. It was such a beautiful moment.

"You don't know how long I've been waiting to find you" He whispered as he tucked her hair away. She just stared at him in adoration, already seeming in love.
