One Day, I Woke Up A Werewolf

Chapter 31

Hailey's POV

Jaxon's mother had put together a celebration of some sort, to celebrate her son finding a mate and the pack kind of accepting me.

"You will sit with Jaxon and his family to show unity." My father tells me but I ignore him and walk over to where Cayden was seated with the rest of our pack.

I sit next to him and my father follows, eyeing me curiously before taking a seat.

"He has not claimed me yet so I don't see why I should leave my pack to sit with his and besides, I have not decided if I'll be leaving this pack to join his. I am your only child, which means I am your only heir. If they expect me to drop everything to join them, well then.. they are in for a surprise." I say.

My father smiles warmly and it takes me back to my old father... the one that hated me.

When he smiled, all of our problems faded away and it made me the happiest girl. Maybe because he rarely smiled at me or anyone really...

"You did the right thing." Cayden says to me, nodding his head in approval.

The festivities began.

There was dancing and a little play fighting here and there. Jaxon kept stealing looks my way but I ignored him. Although I could not ignore the little flutters my heart would make every time our eyes connected.

I can't seem to get over the jealousy of seeing him with Azuri and I keep wondering what they get up to when I'm back at home and they are left here, their home by themselves.

Just looking at him brings upon all sorts of insecurities.

"Who is that girl?" Cayden asks me, pointing at Azuri, who was seated next to Jaxon.

Not surprising...

They seemed to be laughing about something, as Jaxon was lost in laughter and this time, not even looking my way.

"That's Azuri. Jaxon's ex girlfriend." I say right before I let out a sigh in defeat. Once again, Azuri was with my man.

"Ex? Girl, are you sure?" Miriam asks me and we both look at them.

Azuri's was laughing, her fingers holding on to Jaxon's arm for what seems to be support so she doesn't fall off her chair.

"I can tell you one thing.. girl is not shameful." Miriam says and I chuckle as I remember what I've been through with that girl.

Minutes pass by and Jaxon still doesn't look my way. His entire attention shifted to Azuri and friends... it has me feeling a little bit small. Like an intruder and finding somewhat of a comfort that I chose to sit with my family as I could not know how I would be treated, had I sat next to Jaxon.

I didn't miss when they locked eyes before bursting in to laughter without saying anything, I also didn't miss the fact that Azuri's hand stayed firmly in place, holding on to Jaxon's arm.

"I seem to have lost my appetite." I say, pushing my food away.

My father, who was talking to the older pack members looks at me and then at the table in front of us, then back at me.

"It is unlawful for a shera to fall in love with a mera. Whatever you do with this information, I will stand by you." Cayden says to me.

Miriam smiles warmly at me, sitting across the table, she takes my hand and squeezes it.

"Is it unlawful for me to dance with a mera from my pack?" I ask the table and they all say no.

So I turn to look at Cayden, who rolls his eyes but gets the message loud and clear before standing on his feet and holding out his arm for me to take.
