Destined To Be Greatness novel Chapter 24

"And?" I pushed.

"We want you to train us so we can help you," Alpha Sage said resting his hand on my shoulder in a friendly gesture.

I looked across the sea of people that were here offering their assistance in the war that was coming. They all wanted me to train them so they could help. Could I do this? Could I really lead them into war and bring them to victory? Looking into most of their eyes I could see the pride shinning in them. Just knowing they were willing to do this made me feel right here, right now that I could do this.

I looked at the Alphas and nodded my head. The crowd cheered, whistled and some even started hugging each other.

I stood watching everybody thinking to myself, I really hope I can do this. Not just for me but for them.

Cameron's P.O.V

I can't believe that I have finally found my mate, that she has taken refuge in another pack and not just any pack, the strongest pack around, whose alpha is a female. I would never have guessed that she'd be here, that's probably why I didn't even bother looking. I'm just happy now that I can be with her and see her every day. I'm not completely happy though, the only way that I could be myself again is if Jessie or Jay as she goes by now accepts my apology and takes me back as her mate, then we can get married, have pups and grow old together, just living our lives together like we should have been doing for all these years.

I sighed; it would take a miracle for Jay to forgive me. I looked over to where she was standing with a few other alphas discussing the war that was coming up.

"We want you to train us so we can help you," Alpha Sage said resting his hand on her shoulder in a friendly gesture. My wolf growled within me, he didn't like the fact that that another man was touching his mate.

I could see it in her eyes that she was weighing up all the pros and cons of helping train all of them. I also saw that she really didn't want to do it. If I was correct it was because she didn't want them to sacrifice themselves for her, she would've made a great Luna. But I had to ruin her chances of ever becoming one by rejecting her.

"What do you want Cameron?!" She snapped. "Can't you see that I don't want to be around anyone right now, especially you of all people." Ouch, that hurt but I was expecting something like to come out of her.

"Jay look at me." She continued to look at the floor.

"Jay look at me," I said sternly. She looked up with sad eyes, water building up with tears. "I'm not here to judge you or to try and get you back as my mate. I'm here to listen to you as a friend or as a stranger, whatever one feels better for you. I'm not going to judge or run away to tell everyone that the famous Jay has broken." She was still fighting to hold back the tears. "It's okay to cry Jay; everybody needs to cry now and then." It was like a dam had broken and the water began to flow. Tears were streaming down her face as she collapsed to the ground clutching her knees to her chest. I didn't know what to do, it was frustrating! Both myself and my wolf wanted to reach out and hold her in our arms, but we didn't want to scare her or make her think we were up to no good.

Jay was still sat before me crying rivers down her face. That's it, I thought to myself. I knelt down beside her and pulled her into my lap wrapping my arms around her as if I was protecting her from the world. I ignored the sparks that went off from our touch. I don't mean that in a bad way, I love the fact that she's my mate but right now she just needs a friend. Jay didn't fight me when I pulled her to me, so I tightened my hold on her and brought her closer to me so there was no space between us. I was shocked when she started to nuzzle her face and purr into my chest, it sent pleasurable shivers down my spine.
