Sylvia then decided to call Alpha Heir, Eric, to let him know that she believes that Jade is now at Stone Moon pack, and what Luna Monica has said about anyone attempting to come and get Jade. They can just let it go, as they would be no reason to start a war, especially over her worthless niece.
At 420 pm today, my life as I knew it changed. I received a phone call from Luna Monica from the Stone moon pack and my world shifted. As Alpha of the Dark Moon pack in Sedona, AZ few things can shake me. My name is Thomas Harris, and I was currently sitting behind my desk in my office thinking about the phone call with Luna Monica.
I think back to over 18 years ago to when I met my mate. I had been dating a member of my pack at that time, Hillary Davis. A beautiful she-wolf that I was in love with, we had been living together for 5 months and all was going great. She had not found her mate yet, and I hadn’t either. She was a beautiful 20-year-old she-wolf and I really thought that at 27 years old, I would never find my true mate. We enjoyed hiking and running together. We had similar interests and we really enjoyed spending time with each other. I was ready to make her my chosen mate.
I was going to do just that after I came back from the scheduled Alpha meeting, over the weekend when I met my true mate. The attraction was instant, and my heart belonged to this beautiful she-wolf. I immediately forgot about Hillary waiting for me at home when I met my true mate, Joy Billings, now Harris. Joy was everything that I ever wanted in a wolf, and I could not fight the attraction I had for her. Joy and I ended up mating and marking each other that first night. I could not control my wolf around her, and I realized that what I felt for Hillary was nothing compared to what I felt for Joy. I didn’t even think about Hillary until, Joy and I were about 20 miles from my pack, then I realized that I had a big problem.
I stopped the car and told Joy about Hillary, that we weren’t mates and I had kind of given up on finding my mate as I was getting older and started to want a companion. Joy took it very well. It was before I had met her, and she was sweet to say that she was not upset with me. I don’t deserve Joy, just thinking back on this, makes me realize how blessed I am to have found her. We continued to my packhouse, and I brace for having to hurt Hillary, as I really did have feelings for her, they just weren’t the same as the feelings that I have for Joy. They didn’t compare to each other at all.
As I pulled up to the packhouse I mind linked my Beta, Bryant Young, for him to come down and meet my car. I asked him to hurry as I had brought the Luna home with me and let him know that I would be asking Hillary to leave my room and go to her own room in the packhouse. Beta Young didn’t waste time getting to my SUV.
As Beta Young went to take Joy to my Office to keep her safe, Hillary ran out to the door and ran to my arms. At 6’4″ tall I didn’t lean down to accept her kiss. She was immediately concerned.
“What is going on?” Hillary asked narrowing her eyes. “Why won’t you let me kiss you?” She looks around and sees Joy with Beta Young. “Who is she? Why didn’t you answer any of my calls and texts?”
I sighed and answered her. “I met my true mate, Hillary. We knew if either one of us met our mate, we would end what we had and go with our mate. I am sorry and I never meant to hurt you, Hillary. But I am going to need you to take your clothes and stuff from my room and you will be assigned another room in the packhouse. You are welcome to stay, and I wish you well, but we will never be anything more than friends now. You are still young and should be able to still find your mate. Please don’t make this harder by causing problems. I did not deliberately plan on this happening, but I love her so much and I am glad to have found my Goddess-given mate.”
Hillary just broke down crying and sank to the ground telling me “I love you so much, Thomas. Why are you doing this to me? Did I mean so little to you? Did what we have together mean anything at all to you, so little that you would push me away like this? I don’t want to leave you. Please reconsider this. I love you so much”.
“I am so sorry Hillary, again I never meant to hurt you, but Joy is my Mate. It would kill me to be away from her, please understand where I am coming from. I never intended to hurt you. But now that I have Joy, I no longer love you as I did. I only love Joy now, I need you to clear your stuff out of our room, so Joy can move in”.
“Ok, I will go. You will be sorry about this. I love you so much, but you don’t love me anymore. All we had together is gone, and you have broken my heart. I cannot stay here and watch you and Joy have the life I wanted for myself. It would be too hard to see you two together every day and it would slowly kill me. I will go pack now. Goodbye Thomas”. Hillary says to me as she goes into the packhouse to pack. I am sad that she insists on leaving, but I feel like it would probably be for the best for her to leave. I would hate for there to be issues between her and Joy. It would be safest for Joy, for Hillary to leave now. I have my Gamma bring around a car from the garage to give to Hillary for her to take with her. I then mind-link two warriors to help Hillary bring her stuff down from my room. I then mind-link the head of my housekeeping staff for my room to be thoroughly cleaned and the bedding changed out after Hillary leaves the room. A crew was waiting outside the room when Hillary exited and the hurt look that she sent me made me feel even worse about having asked so quickly for the cleaning to be done. I just wanted to get the room cleaned and Joy safe, secure, and happy in the room with me. I wanted her to be comfortable in her new home. I didn’t intend to offend Hillary, but I know I did when I saw her face.
The warriors escort her downstairs and helped her load her vehicle. I followed them down to her car as I wanted to see if she had a place to go.
“Hillary, do you know where you will be going? Do you have any money? Or an idea of where you will be staying?” I asked her.
