Alpha Jax Chapter 25
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

SCARLETT :"I can't get the image of the two of you together out of my mind," I admitted, a part of me wanted to let that go but the pain it brought me refused to fade."Why?" His thumb stroked the exposed skin of my neck."I don't know," I told him. "Make me forget." Without breaking eye contact, I brought his finger with my shaky hands to my trembling lips.I didn't have to say it; my gesture was enough for him to crash his lips onto mine. He fisted my hair gently while I did the same. He shuffled between slow and aggressively passionate. It was almost as if he only wanted to treasure the moment between us. My legs turned to jelly in a millisecond, if it weren't for the support of the wall I'd have fallen on the spot."I've…"Kiss."Always…”Kiss."Wanted to…”Kiss."Touch you again."Every movement sent tingles from my back to my core. Although it seemed momentarily, it gave me the chance to see an opening for a possibility of it all to last forever."Part your lips for me, Scarle

SCARLETT :It all happened in a flash. Two of the rogues were soon bound in ropes with glass shards all over them.Cage was bleeding badly, and the little girl wouldn't stop crying."Are you okay?" Of course, he wasn't okay. He was bleeding badly, but the situation had me feeling almost numb. I didn't know what else to say.Sophie grabbed her bag and took her scarf, tore it, and wrapped it around his bleeding palms."What's going to happen to these two?" Soph asked Cage."They'll be held captive for questioning," Cage replied, panting heavily. "This is unusual; rogues have never neared this pack. We have the strongest men positioned at our borders; they never leave. Our security is the best. Someone planned this obviously; it could be someone within the pack. We'll need them to answer to us, I bet everyone has a question or two for them."Hot and cold air brushed my skin as I got goosebumps due to anxiety."You'll never get anything out of us no matter how hard you try," one of the ro

JAX:"Don't go anywhere," I told my wolf, Luca. "I'll be needing you throughout today.""I practically live in you. Just summon me," it told me before disappearing.I wore a full-proof body suit. All my men had them. It didn't keep the head safe, but the rest of the body would be. My men had spread out throughout the pack. My guards accompanied me as we stepped out of my chamber. Dead bodies were spread out on the floor."Your people are out there dying, and you chose to stay in your chamber and take your time like a pretty little princess." Six rogues appeared before me, and before I replied, my men were shot in the head from behind."Nice work," I commended. "Now let me show you how to shoot." My grandfather did not give me affection; he signified approval by giving me permission to learn his secret moves.One deep breath."Luca, I need you.""I'm here, Jax," he responded.Soon, I was behind the five of them, firing silver bullets with both my hands."Fascinating," one of the rogues

ZHARN MEYERS:"Over there," Amy pointed."Why? You're not gonna come any further?""No, we have to stay here just in case you drown or something. That way, we can get help on time," Amy told me. "Besides, look at Tina, she's shaking. That area is too spooky for her."I looked at Tina, who was not hiding very well behind Amy.I groaned. "Hey, Tina, I can get you a new-"She sobbed. "My dolly. Waaaaaaaaa."I grimaced."I'll get it.""Thank you," she said in the most childish voice ever. How can a six-year-old manipulate her way into getting a doll back?I strode to the lake where the full moon reflected directly on the blue water."We weren't just compatible. Zharn, I want you to stop drowning yourself. Move on, find some peace. Find a beautiful woman you love. Get married too," Cleo's voice rang in my head."You'll always have a place in my life, as a friend."Her wedding ring and pregnant belly flashed before my eyes.Tears poured down."Fuck, I'm a grown man. I can't cry," I told mys

ZHARN MEYERS:I had spoken on the spur of the moment that day, and I did not realize how it would make her feel that way."Why didn't you say anything?" I queried."I wanted to, but then you became aBeta and got too busy. I met Paul around that time," she told me. Paul, the man she cheated on me with. Twice. "I don't know how to explain it, but it was different with him, too different, and I realized that I could not love you in the way that you loved me. Yet, it was hard to let you go. My family loved you, my friends did too. Your family ranks second among the nobles. My parents would have killed me if I let you.""Then your only option was to string me along forever?" I ran my hands through my hair."Cleo, I was scared you'd hate me.""Cleo, I loved you too much to ever hate you. You could've told me everything, and I would've let you go, even if it killed me," I chuckled bitterly. "I'm not that selfish. I'd never keep someone who cannot love me the same way that I do them."She lo

ZHARN MEYERS:I kept my distance from Jax. He'd give me sad eyes all evening, reminding me of how shitty my life really was.I stood by the pillar, observing the evening when a woman whooshed past me.I caught a whiff of strawberries and bubblegum, and my nose followed the scent. A woman in a green dress hugged her body so tight that I noticed other men gawking at her. Her wavy dirty blonde hair did not do much to cover her exposed back.A good distraction for the night. All I have to do is smile and use my boyish charms. I watched her until she went to the side where the lowborns stood and turned."Holy shit, she's gorgeous," my wolf Lan read my mind.Her golden amber eyes shone as bright as stars even without trying. Her rosy-colored cheeks and lips stood out against her fair skin.It was settled. I was getting her contact info.I was about to cross the bridge between the nobles and lowborns when a gentle tug pulled me back. I should have looked around; the only thing standing betwe

ZHARN MEYERS:I endured the first two hours of the event, engaging in political discussions and business talk with older men. This was my father's domain, not mine, but that night I was not just Beta Zharn. I was also the young Master of the Meyer household, there to uphold the family's honor."Hey, Zharn!" Anna exclaimed. "Amy snuck a pastry.""They're from home," Amy defended."Excuse me." I gave a curt smile to the grey-haired man with a pot belly before storming over to my sisters."What did our mother say about tonight?" I seethed, hoping I wouldn't have to lock my sisters in a cage that night."To not steal pastries?" Anna shrugged."No, you dimwit," Amy rolled her eyes. "She said to behave." Amy said proudly, but I was about to knock that pride off her face with a good smack to her forehead."Why aren't you behaving?" I whispered angrily. "Do you realize you're not even supposed to be here? You have to be of age.""Liar," that was the second time I had been called a liar that n

ZHARN MEYERS:FIVE MONTHS AGO…"Guys, are you ready?!" My mother yelled from downstairs. "Zharn, you're the Beta. What are you still doing up there?"I appeared from behind her. "I've been outside for a while now, thanks for thinking the best of me," I said, my tone caustic.My mother flinched, holding her heart. "Zharn Jake Meyers, don't do that again.""Yes, mother," I replied blandly."Now, where are your sisters?" My mother turned to a passing servant. "Get the girls, speedily!""No need, Mama." My four little sisters ran down the stairs, all looking chaotic.My parents had six children: my older sister, me, and four other annoying girls."What took you all so long?" My mother sighed."It was Anna and Amy," Joy, the one after me, was quick to point out the culprit."Was not!" Anna and Amy said simultaneously."Was too!" Joy shot back."Mama," the youngest, Tina, ran to embrace our mother.Our mother's blond hair was styled up elegantly, with her blue eyes matching the color of the

HARRISON CAGE:It was unplanned. At first, the only thing on my mind was to save her from the same fate my mother suffered, or that was what I told myself intentionally.I had no place in her life to interfere, perhaps I was selfish, granted that my father was too. I had someone to blame my inadequacies on. I looked for her every day, and learned more about her through her coworker Reyes. I owe him thousands of favors. I was no better than a creepy stalker who used curiosity as a cover-up.I tried my hardest not to show it, but the moment she gave me a place in her life was the happiest I had ever been. I was okay with no one checking on me, I was fine third-wheeling to clubs with Jax and Zharn just to go home alone while they did their thing with women of the night.That was the past, not anymore. Not only was I cursed yet blessed with falling for a woman whose mate is my old friend, but I got a badass, foul-mouthed, definitely not shy friend Sophie. Scarlett was bold when she wanted

HARRISON CAGE :THIRTEEN YEARS AGO…"Is that him?" A woman thought as she discreetly pointed from behind her fan."Yes, I think so," her friend whispered. "I heard Maria isn't his mother. There's another one who died."The other woman gasped. "Poor thing.""I believe 'unfortunate' is the word. His mother was an Omega," she whispered."I see, a concubine?""Must be.""Then he's a bastard. Shame on his mother for bringing such a child to suffer brutally in a world like this," her voice held disdain. "Maria would never accept a boy like him."I stood near one of the pillars in the grand hall where my stepmother hosted her events."Sir Cage," a maid came up to me. "Your father calls for you.""Alright." I glanced one more time at the women who scorned my mother; a woman they barely knew and who knew nothing of their existence. How dare they cast pitiful glances at me?I followed the maid to my father's study. The Harrisons ranked high in first-class society, one of the brightest household
