The Claiming by Cooper (Jara & Mason)

Chapter 47

Mason

I knew, when I heard Jara ask Alpha Luke to stay behind, that she wanted to spend some individual time with him. It hurts, but I also know she isn’t yet mine. I have to bide my time and I know he’s my biggest competition.

But that doesn’t mean that I can’t still take care of her. I know she must be hungry. She’s been sparring for hours and fighting against several Alphas, so I can send her some food and make sure she’s fed. While I’m at it, I order food for Alpha Luke too. In any other situation, I’d like him, but he’s my competition here. That doesn’t mean 1 have to be an a*s*s. So, I send food for both of them.

I go up to my room to shower before returning to the dining hall. I notice Typhon stalking around, growling and grumbling. I don’t miss it when he and his entire pack rise and walk outside. I look around and realize everyone else saw it too.

I’m up and moving before anyone else. I know what this means. He’s after Jara.

I hear him before I see him. He’s obviously pushing the limits of the claiming rules by trying to force Jara into spending time with him. As his pack stands behind him, I move to stand behind Jara, ready to support her. I needn’t have bothered. As always, Jara is glorious in her anger. I can’t help but snicker when I see Typhon forced to submit to her.

It makes me wonder if she could make my wolf submit to her. I know once I’ve claimed her, he will submit to her every whim, that’s expected. But in a show of force? I may have to see if she’s willing to test that. It would be interesting to see just how strong her wolf is.

That has always been my special thing with her. 1 wonder if I pushed her too far last night. Maybe the physical contact was more than she could handle. Or, maybe, and the thought has my wolf snarling in my head, she wants to see what it feels like to be with someone
