The Claiming By Cooper

The Council by Cooper (Jara & Mason)

Chapter 34

Mason

I’m so f*cking ecstatic that I can hardly stand it. I want to jump around, all over the world, doing cartwheels and shouting to the rooftops that my mate, my amazing mate, is giving me the second-best gift that she could give me. The first was herself and now the second is a pup.

Title of the document

After Seth’s announcement that Hana is pregnant with a female, Jara begins crying and as I’m wiping her eyes, I hear her mother step up to the phone. She must be in Alpha Luke’s office.

“You mean to tell me that I go away for one weekend and in that time my daughter finds out she’s pregnant and my daughter-in-law finds out she’s having a girl?”

“Sorry mom.” Both Jara and Hana say as one. I’m glad to know I’m not the only one that wanted our mates on the call today. Of course, it could also be that we were without them for the weekend, but I think it’s more than that. We need to talk about these she-wolves in Alpha

Emanuel and Alpha Conrad’s packs and from what I’ve seen of our alliance members, we all value the input of our Lunas.

Seth gets started with our agenda. “Let’s start with Kira and McKenna, the G*mmas who came from Alpha Shawn’s pack. How are they doing?” He asks. Before Alpha Luke can speak, Jara’s mother jumps in.

“Well, I just got here, but so far, they aren’t good. G*mma Kira has rejected her mate and she’s suffering because of it. McKenna, Brynn and Melinda are with her and we’re taking turns making sure she’s eating. But it will take some time for her to recover.”

“Does anyone know if he has to accept the rejection?” Elder Jason’s voice says through the phone.

“Why would he?” Jara asks.

“In the olden days of mates, both mates had to reject each other before the bond was severed, or at least one had to reject, and the other had to accept the rejection. Times have changed, so I’m not sure if that’s the case any longer.”

“I guess we’ll find out, but for now, I know Alpha Luke has requested that these two stay in his pack and Brynn and I agree. If Kira decides that she wants to go somewhere else when she’s stronger, then we can discuss it. But for now, Alpha Luke is treating them well and they are as happy as they can be here given the circumstances.” Nina says.

If their mates have passed away or they aren’t bonded like we are to our mates, they may find it beneficial to their status in the p**k. Either way,
