Jayce’s P.O.V. I still can’t believe we shared a dream, not just me and my Brothers, we somehow dragged our Princess into it with us and seeing her standing there flustered I smile. She just said her goodbyes to Jason and Justin and Jax is holding her in his arms, inhaling his scent to calm herself and Justice down. This will only get harder the more our bond develops, not only for her but for us as well and I hope we can deal with it for the next two years. I hope Elder Edward will send her the information Dad asked for soon, because that will keep her mind of Jason and Justin not being here and I hope she will find some answers for herself as well. After all she is an underaged Mate and I feel it is important she understands why things are the way they are. I know she doesn’t agree with them and a part of me understands her reasoning, but this morning showed that she is too innocent. Even though I can think of a few things I want to do with her and not do something against the Law. I know my Brothers can think of a few things as well, but none of us will act on them as she is still not of age. Jason and Justin hated leaving as it is her birthday tomorrow and for the second year in a row they will miss it. Last year was our own fault as she moved to the Pack-house, because we made living at the Palace very difficult for her. Sometimes I wonder why she didn’t figure it out sooner, but then again she was busy with her studies and getting adjusted to living at the Palace. She was an only child and didn’t realize that our behavior was not typical sibling behavior. All four of us had apologized to Matt in the past year for our behavior, but we never explained to him why we were so over-protective of Hunter. He and Victor know understand why and both of them made it clear that they would put her best interest before ours, just like Max had done. “Princess, why don’t we go to the training grounds? I would like to see how your protection detail is doing.” I say. I just want to get her mind of Jason and Justin for a little while and I hope this will do the trick. Uncle Drake, Max, Papa and Pops join us as we leave for the training grounds and Hunter has jumped on my back, holding on to me tightly. As soon as we reach our destination I see Suzy standing there and my demeanor changes rapidly. I just hope she is smart enough to leave me the hell alone as I see Macy whispering something to her. Max is staring at the women before he looks at Hunter and asks, “Suzy?” Hunter chuckles while she nods her head and I am glad I have the two of them with me. Suzy looks at Max and she lets her eyes glide over his body, up and down. She looks at me after she is done checking him out and then her eyes move to Hunter. If looks could kill I would be burying my Mate soon. “Hello, Prince Jayce. Do we get the pleasure of watching you train?” She asks as she gives me a seductive smile. Max snorts at her comment and her head snaps towards him, before they land on Uncle Drake. “Alpha Drake, it is a pleasure to meet you. My name is Suzy and my Father….” She doesn’t get to say more as Uncle Drake interrupts her. “Yes, I know who your Father is and if memory serves me right I told you last time we met to stay the hell away from me.” He growls. Suzy’s face turns pale as Hunter hides her face in my neck, but everyone can hear her giggle and that pisses Suzy off. “You better watch yourself, little Pup. If I catch you alone you will regret crossing me.” She hisses and before Jax and I can respond Max opens his mouth. “If I catch you anywhere near my Cousin I will rip you apart. I don’t care who your Father is and I don’t care what you think he might be able to do. Come near Hunter and he gets to bury you.” His voice is laced with anger and I know he will carry out his threat. Uncle Drake steps between Max and Suzy as Papa puts his hand on Max’s shoulder to calm him down. “Suzy, you are warned. Stay away from my Niece or I will allow Max to carry out his threat.” Uncle Drake’s words make her pale even more and I have to stifle a smile. Max looks at Suzy as he says, “Uncle Drake, that was not a threat, it was a promise and Nanna raised me to remember that if you make a promise you better keep it.” We all start laughing as Suzy turns and walks away with Macy right behind her.
