Chapter 07 (Jace)

Jordan and I were up late getting everything in order and making sure that we had enough rooms to fit all of the Alphas, old and new. It didn’t hurt my feelings at all when Nolan showed up, asking if she wanted to take a break to eat dinner and Jordan told him we didn’t have time.

She had stepped out with him, telling him about the council coming to interview him tomorrow and while they were gone, I mind linked the kitchen staff to have them bring food up for me and Jordan. Knowing Jordan like I do, I ordered hamburgers, French fries, and chocolate chip cookies, finger foods that she can grab, bite into and keep working. Nolan keeps trying to get her to eat sit down meals, but that’s not Jordan. She doesn’t have time for that, especially right now.

When she comes back in, sitting behind her desk, she pulls her hair into a ponytail. “We should think about ordering something to eat, Jace.”

“Already done,” I tell her, having pulled myself up to her desk so we can work together like we always do.

She looks up at me. “What did you order?”

I smile at her, waiting for her reaction. “Hamburgers and French fries.” I’m rewarded with her eyes nearly rolling back in her head. It’s her favorite and it’ s easy to eat and work. “Oh, and chocolate chip cookies.”

“Thank the goddess!” she says, and we divide the work, continuing while we eat and into the night.

This morning, I’m standing beside her as she welcomes her parents and the other council members to the pack. “Jordan! It’s so good to see you,” Luna Jara says, coming up and hugging her daughter.

“Mom, it hasn’t been that long since you’ve seen me,” Jordan says, hugging her mother back.

“Good to have you home, Alpha,” I say, greeting Alpha Mason.

“Gamma Jace, it’s good to see you again. When you have a moment, I’d like to speak with you while I’m here.”
