One Day, I Woke Up A Werewolf
Chapter 5

Jaxon's POV

She was beautiful.

Goddess, she was breathtaking and I have to make her mine but how?

My dad said he just walked my mother to the woods and shifted in front of her to introduce her in to our world but that's just wrong. I mean, it worked for him but I doubt that would work on Hailey. Besides, she's dealing with a lot now. Her horrible father and her mother passed away, I can't add on to the trauma. I will have to gently pull her in to my world but Azuri.

"Hey Jax.. want to hang out in my room?" Azuri asks and I shake my head no.

"What's your deal?" She asks me and I chuckle.

"I found someone else Azuri. You knew this when we started, why are you making it difficult?" I ask her.

"No. I knew things would end when you met your mate but you haven't so what's your deal?" She asks again.

"Look, we had a good run but the fire is out and I can't force myself to be with you. Don't make me have to use my authority to get you to stop playing my girl, you're not and you've never been. We agreed on this when we first got together so what changed?" I ask her and she looks down before looking up at me.

"I fell in love.” She blurts out and I let out a growl.

"It is forbidden Azuri!! Why would you allow yourself to do that?! Fuck!" I shout out.

"It just happened okay? I had no control over it." She says to me.

"Brett told me this was a bad idea. Now even if I meet my mate, your wolf will want to kill her and she's only human. I'd have to have guards all around her to protect her from you! All because you couldn't wrap your head around the fact that we can never be together, not in the way you want. Fuck.” I say before walking away from her.

"Are you going to tell your father?" She asks which has me stop in my tracks.

"No. It is forbidden for a shewolf to fall in love, especially with a male wolf who has a human mate somewhere in the world. If you are truly in love, you'll expose yourself to him and he will have to kill you." I say before walking away.

Azuri and I have always been friends but one drunken night we hooked up. One drunken night led to other nights and now this.

Now Hailey's life is in danger and that's all because of me. To save Hailey, I'd have to kill Azuri but she's my friend before anything else.

"What's wrong son?" Mother asks me as I throw myself on the couch next to her. My father was sitting on the opposite side.

"I found my mate.” I say.

"Well that's great news! When do we meet her?” My dad asks and I look down at my feet.

"It's Hailey isn't it?” My mom asks and I nod my head yes.

"Who's Hailey?" My dad asks and my mom let's out a sigh.

"Hailey is the new girl at the school. Hasn't had the warmest welcome to the school either.” My mom says throwing me a glare.

"I fixed all of that but now I have a bigger problem. A problem that has me drained and helpless.” I say looking between both my parents.

"I'm going to walk away because I think as alpha, I don't need to hear this.” My dad says, mom and I both nodding our heads in agreement.

We wait for the car to start and drive away before we both blurt out in unison,

"Azuri."

"She's in love with you, isn't she? Mom asks and I nod my head.

"If she finds out that Hailey is my mate..." I say but my mother interrupts me.

"She will kill her. Oh poor Hailey..” Mother says. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"I don't have a choice. I'll have to kill her, she's already making Hailey's life miserable.” I say, making my mother gasp out loud.

"No. Azuri will make a wonderful warrior, you can't afford to lose her.” She tells me.

"Then what do I do? I have to keep Hailey alive!" I shout out, frustration getting the better of me. "You befriend Hailey to keep the boys away but you keep her as a friend and only as a friend to keep Azuri's wolf from killing her. In six months, Azuri will be stationed at the border and that's when you will be able to be with Hailey." My mother tells me and I growl.

I am not good with patience but my mother is right. Azuri will be leaving soon to go live by the border so Hailey will be safe from her.

"Then you have to make sure Azuri never comes back to the school. She remains expelled.” I say and my mother nods in agreement.

"Very soon, the mate pull will take over Hailey's senses, keeping Azuri away is the best decision.” My mom says and this time, I nod in agreement.

I kiss my mom on the cheek before making my way to my room. It's going to be a very long and hard six months without claiming Hailey.

And when the mate pull kicks in on her, how will I resist her?
