Alpha Jax Chapter 24
SCARLETT :Due to the turn of events, all schedules were to be put on hold until we returned to our pack. I was more than relieved to hear this, as being a secretary or personal assistant was not my forte.I chuckled thinking about how the infamously stern Sir Hensley would react when he saw the pile of unmanaged duties he would have to fit into Alpha Jax's weekly schedule.My day off was supposed to be for me to enjoy, to heal from my cuts and bruises, but fate had a way of sabotaging that.Alpha Jax was spending the whole day with Rosie. I knew I was not in love with him, but my plan would be in jeopardy if those two did something they shouldn't. I had to place my faith in a man who sometimes acted out of place.They headed out with the guards, leaving me confident that nothing too serious would happen. He had given me his word before he left. Our back-and-forth had no label. All we had was my side of the bond, which I blatantly refused to cut off. Yet, over the past hours, we had n

SCARLETT :"You must have a talent for choosing random people, Alpha Aaron.""Aaron," he corrected me. "Come, let's sit." He gestured towards the strong wooden bench-like swing in the center of the small garden.I imagined the pure, lively greenery in its ambiance when the flowers were in full bloom, and the imagery seemed like it was made for two lovers. Given its location as a place where people rarely passed through, the quietness and the spring weather, there was no other use for it."Yes, Aaron," I adjusted my tone. "I cannot be your partner. Your pack is one of the largest packs to exist, yet you've found no other woman to accompany you than a woman from another pack, one of low birth.""Are you letting your birth as an Omega define you?" He faced me.I had never been asked that question, meaning I had never thought about it. Was I really letting it define who I was? It didn't matter because that is who I am at the end of the day, a weak wolf."You shouldn't let it," he emphasiz

JAX:I felt like a paid actor during the time I spent with Rosie. She was incredibly demanding. I had promised Scarlett I would be back before dinner, but I ended up staying out with Rosie until midnight.She kept talking about all the places she wanted to go with me, and I had no choice but to go along with it, pretending to have fun. My mind was constantly on Scarlett. Our bond felt stronger than ever.I couldn't push the image of Scarlett out of my head while I was with Aaron's sister. Being with Scarlett would have been a million times more enjoyable. We would argue over silly things, and I would prolong the discussions until she gave up. I couldn't deny how much I missed her subtle gestures, like scrunching her nose and tugging on her lower lip.The anticipation of seeing her got me through the day. I planned to ditch Rosie as soon as we arrived at the palace, but she insisted on walking me to my room.A smirk appeared on my lips when I saw Scarlett passed out on the plush couch

SCARLETT :I knew my actions were childish. I could have just spoken to him about it, but I cowered and left anyway. Somehow, he always managed to bring tears to my eyes.Soon, he was knocking at my door. I failed to gain the energy to face him. Hoping he would give up, I cried silently. Nevertheless, the noise at my door didn't stop, giving me no other choice than to hold my tears back, wipe the ones that had already fallen, and open the door for him."She made a move on me. I did not want to touch her," he explained.Rather than saying, "yet she touched you, moreover you let her," I just asked why he was late.I know it was a plan. I should not be this hurt after all; I was using him, so why was my chest aching a lot? Why wouldn't the pain go away? Why did I feel like he'd desert me and go back to Rosie? It was possible that he was just trying to be kind and considerate of me to stop me from having any unkind thoughts about him. I really wanted to stop all these intrusive thoughts f

SCARLETT :Alpha Jax and I spent time away from each other until it was time to practice. He was with Rosie, and I was with Alpha Aaron as we stepped into the music room. All the windows were covered with wine-colored blinds, shielding us from the intensifying heat and light of the sun. The blinds contrasted beautifully against the golden-colored walls. The room was filled with various musical instruments, including a grand piano, a large violin, a flute, and a trumpet.Each instrument stood at the four corners of the room, with a ray of light shining from the slightly open window at the center, making it the focal point of the room. It seemed like whoever stood in that spot would be the star, with the sunlight reflecting their beauty."It's pretty," I mumbled."Of course, it is," Rosie spoke proudly. "Everything here is expensive.""Roseanne," her brother cautioned her.She rolled her eyes in response. "What? She obviously has no shame. Now that Jaxy chose me, she's clinging onto you

JAX:Scarlett was doing such a good job at riling me up. I explained that I was with Roseanne for a plan. I had no feelings for her. I'd be damned for all eternity if I allowed something that stupid to happen to me. I'd rather quit my status than do that.She, on the other hand, had no good reason to be with Aaron. I did not understand what hold Scarlett had over me. Since when did I start acting like a child?For fifteen minutes, she did not glance at me during dance practice. She kept chatting with Aaron, while on the other hand, I chose to shut my ears to my partner's voice.Soon, his hand was on her face, wiping a tear. Something in me snapped, allowing me to lose my composure.I broke away from Rosie's grip and strode over to them, removing his hand from her. "What do you think you're doing?" I tightened my grip on Aaron's hand."Leave me alone!" Scarlett blared, tears pooling in her eyes."She's crying." Rage consumed me. "What did you do to her?""I think the question should be

JAX:Just like earlier that day, her eyes did not search for me."I need to speak with you," I communicated with her through our bond. From the way her gorgeous eyes slightly enlarged, I knew she got the message.Soon, Rosie dropped in from the ceiling in a large flower, wrapped in a white dress decorated with silver stones. Her hair was straightened and let down, and her makeup was bold.Her entrance was grand, alright. I went to the flower to receive her, and she gave me a warm smile.As she addressed everyone, Aaron thought it would be an amazing time to tell Scarlett a joke that made her flash him a huge smile and her dimples.She had never smiled that way with me. I've seen tears gather in her eyes and a formal smile, but one where her amber eyes shone while her dimples became visible was something I had never seen before, not until Aaron came along.If I had only made her cry so far, why was she still bent on not breaking the bond? Did she want revenge by torturing me with it be

SCARLETT :Alpha Aaron spent a lot of time comforting me even when my tears fell for another man. It was my plan, and it hurt so bad. Too bad.Deep down, I knew it would be best to give up now, but how could I? I already started; I'd be a coward not to see it to the end.I called my twin to let her know how right she was."Stop going back and forth, Scar," she told me. "Pick a side now.""I'm trying to," I groaned on the other end of the phone. "I can't come up with a way to get that close to him.""You don't have to go to him. Make him come to you," she replied."How?""Jealousy," I could sense her maliciously grinning."I don't know," my brain glowed in remembrance, and a light bulb appeared above my head. "Alpha Aaron.""Brother of bitch 2.0?" she questioned. The moment I gave Sophie all the details on Rosie, she gave her a well-deserved nickname."Yes, him.""Hmm. Not bad.""You're stroking your chin, aren't you?" I sighed."I hate that you know me so well.""This isn't your detec

ZHARN:The fear that wrapped me in its fingers was indescribable when I heard what Scarlett did to Jax. I was afraid that it was the same with Sophie. All that worry consumed me, and I needed space to think. I'll never regret fighting for us. I promised her, and that is exactly what I'll do.She looked cute in her tight black top and jeans. Sophie is a sight for sore eyes.I'm in love with this woman. This beautiful, unfiltered, badass woman. Everyone who disagrees about our union can respectfully jump in the ocean.My phone rang just before I revved the engines.I was surprised to see Hensley on the screen; this man rarely calls me. It made a feeling rise in my chest, one that I could not shake off.I glanced at Sophie before picking up."Hensley," I said into the phone."Sir Zharn. I need to come to the Alpha's cabin. He has an awful fever, he's drunk as well. I've never seen him this way, and I don't -""I'll be there," I cut the call."What happened?" Sophie searched my eyes."Jax
Alpha Jax Chapter 166
SOPHIE :"Hi," I stood in front of the house as Zharn came to pick me up."Hey," he stood in front of his car in a sports jacket on top of a black shirt, jeans, and Converse. He looked like a hot teenager. It was so appealing to see.I squealed as I ran towards him, jumping on him. "I missed you," I confessed.It had been a week since Scarlett returned, since Zharn walked out the door with his best friend, and I thought I lost the one man I fell in love with, not until he called me.I remembered the trepidation in his voice as he asked me again over the phone, "Do you love me?"I found it as a silly question, but I understood where he was coming from, especially with his past. I would have a hint of doubt too if I were the one. Scarlett kept rooting for me all the way, and it made me sad that she had to go through all she has because of the De Vaunt family."I miss you too," my legs were still circled around his waist. He brought my head down to kiss me."Ahem!" My father cleared his
Alpha Jax Chapter 165
SCARLETT :"Jax, wait!" I ran after him."Scarlett, come back here," my father screamed, but I ignored him."Jax!" I followed him down the stairs."I don't think we should be speaking to each other after that. I hurt you, I'm sorry I was a jerk." The pain in his voice made my stomach knot. He sounded so genuine. "I cannot turn that night back, and I want to now, so badly even. That way I'd make a better decision of paying you off in exchange for breaking the bond-""You think you can write me off with money?" Tears streamed down my face."I don't know! It's just that now I'd do anything to change it. One stupid mistake has clearly damaged us. I've fallen in love with you. You've got your revenge, and so I hope that you are happy." He walked out the door.I fell to my knees and broke into sobs."No, please." I've fallen in love with you too."Scarlett, get off the floor," my father commanded me."N-no, I-"Sophie helped me up. "You were going to have to let him know the truth at some p

SCARLETT :"Scarlett!" Everyone screamed as I got out of the jeep. It was a long drive. We escaped the black shadow in the morning, and we got back around 3 am the next morning.Everyone enveloped me in a hug. I wasn't sure if my whole being was enough for them to embrace. We all shed tears.My father kissed my forehead. "I'm so sorry I let you go alone."I shook my head fervently. "No, please, it isn't your fault.""What happened to your face?" My mother poked the bruise gently, and I hissed.My father's eyes raged. "Who did this to my daughter?""Thank you for bringing her home, Cage." Scarlett hugged him deeply. "I owe you so much. Thank you, thank you.""No, you owe me nothing," Cage disagreed."What do you mean?" My father left me as José, Elena, Adrianne, Estelle, Jean, Lennie, and Courte dragged me back and forth between them, arguing on who searched for me the most. "Cage, I owe you my life. My daughters and wife are everything to me, and you brought my Scarlett back to me, so

SCARLETT :"Not before I raid a place I've had my eye on," Tiffany said.I frowned. What? "Whoa, hold up. I know you have your issues, and I get that, but you gave me your word to take me to the border. What you just did was wrong, and you know it." I should've just coaxed her into helping me, but her attitude wasn't helping. "You can't just break into people's houses, steal wallets, and eat pretzels."She folded her arms, her expression hardening. Here we go again."We saved you last night, and this is how you repay me? Without us, you'd be dead." Her glare cut through me like a blade. "You don’t even know me, and you're making assumptions.""I'm not—""I don't need help," she snapped. "I’m fifteen, and I hold my own just fine. You wanna get to the border? Fine. Find your own way!" She spun on her heels and stormed off.Panic flared in my chest. She was my only way out. I couldn't let her leave."Tiffany!" I called, rushing after her."Get away from me, you righteous goddess," she bi
Alpha Jax Chapter 162
SCARLETT :"Good luck with your messed-up fantasies then. She's. Not. Here." I heard the annoyance in her voice. Tiffany sounded pissed.After a few more thuds, they left, and I could breathe. For a short while, I heard notice, and panic filled me. There were many possibilities; I just didn't want the negatives to override the positives."Think lightly, Scarlett," my wolf chided.The darkness did not scare me; nothing did as much as the thought of the people who gave me a place to hide being in trouble. They saved me.Amidst my conflicting thoughts, the passage to the doorway opened, and I recoiled back, clinging to the knife Turner gave me."Hey, hey, hey, Scarlett." My name rolled off Turner's tongue smoothly."Hey," I smiled, breathing heavily."They're gone," he told me. "Come down."He instructed me, guiding me through the heavy boxes."Thank you," I told him."Yeah, yeah," Tiffany stood by the door, rolling her eyes. "Next time, tell us Callen Harper is about to murder your ass.
Alpha Jax Chapter 161
SCARLETT :She paused and then suddenly screamed someone's name. "Turner, get down there! There's your type at the door. She wants to stay."I was confused, to say the least.Was this a bad idea?Can I trust these people?"Better than Logan for sure," my wolf cleared my thoughts.Soon, a tall boy appeared at the door. He looked like he could be the goth girl's brother. Same brown hair, tons of piercings, tall, a net top, sleeveless jacket, spiky gloves, leather pants, boots."Oh, she's fine," he nodded, looking down at my chest. I looked down to find myself in scraps of clothing. There was barely anything clinging to my body. The transformation side effects. My shoes were gone too.I covered my chest with my arms, and he snickered, mocking me."Can I hide for a few minutes? The longer I stay out, the more in danger I'll be. There are some dangerous men after me-"He dragged my hand and pushed me to his chest.Blerghhh. I scented cedarwood from him, but the alcohol covered it up.How m
Alpha Jax Chapter 160
SCARLETT :The world had failed me time and time again, and it made me realize I was the only one who could save myself. Perhaps, I had always possessed the power to set myself free.Fear wrapped its fingers around me as I paused in motion. The sound of a cat, the cause of the noise, made me loosen up a bit, if only in a very small way.I tried to pick up the knife, but I had shoes on. Not to mention they were tied together as well. I couldn't feel my legs either.I groaned as I averted my eyes back to the rope. I still couldn't connect to my wolf, nor could I communicate with Herrera. The power I possessed had its downside since it was for the pack, but I was still hoping...The layers of the thick rope were almost gone. Three more left, and I'd be free. I wriggled my hand, and it was almost loose. A little more, and I'd be able to withdraw my hand from captivity along with it.I lowered my head and used my canines to bite through the rope again and again. Without my wolf, it was tak
Alpha Jax Chapter 159
SCARLETT :I was tied up to a chair, wrists and feet bound. I had never felt more deserted. Where was Herrera when I needed her? Why had nobody tried to find me yet?How long had it been?I felt weak, hungry, thirsty, bruised, and dirty. The ones who had taken me never had Sophie. The girl and her mother were killed the moment we got to the location. I couldn't save them. I couldn't..."Ah!" I screamed out as one of the men yanked my hair backward."Look at the way she screams!" They cackled."It sounds nice," another commented."Hearing this daily has made my day," another sighed. "The only unfortunate thing about this is that she can't relieve what her sounds do to my cock.""Stop." The one who yanked my hair let me go, my head falling to the front."Boss said no one should touch her. She's bait for Alpha Jax. When he gets here, we'll kill him. Then we can do whatever we want to her.""It's been seven fucking days. How long do we have to wait?" Another spoke.A louder, deeper voice
