Scarlet POV
It has been three whole weeks since I was kidnapped. So much has changed in my life. I can’t help but wonder if I made the right choice.
Flash back
“What if I don’t want to?” I had asked Jaxson. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to finish the mating process but I didn’t want to do it because he was forced to do it. I wanted it to happen when the time was right. I still felt like he was doing it out of a sense of duty, not because he actually cared for me.
“What do you mean?” He had asked me. I hurt him by asking that.
“I don’t want Jared and I am happy to get him out of me but I am not going to finish the mating process because it is your job. I am not a job that you need to get done in a timely manner.”&nbs
Thank you all for reading!
Jaxson POV I can’t believe we are even here. She almost died a few weeks ago and her friend is missing. I don’t know if she is just trying to take back control over her life but damn, this is a little much. To top it off, Michelle decided she needed to come see me. What the fuck was that anyway! She walked straight into my office like she owned the damn place and if Scarlet hadn’t walked in when she did, I would have grabbed her neck and thrown her out myself. As sexually frustrated as I am, I can only think about Scarlet and that one amazing night we had. Damn, I am so fucking sexually frustrated. I’m not sure how much more I will be able to jack off in the shower. It has never been this long between fucks. I swear, at this point, I’d fuck a blow up doll. “Ladies and gentlemen! The date auction
Scarlet POV The smell of ammonia and rubbing alcohol are becoming too familiar. Opening my eyes, I saw the similar furnishings of a typical hospital. This must not be a pack hospital but one regardless. My lower back was a dull throbbing pain but tolerable. I have had worse. Thinking back to what happened, I remember Jaxson reminding me how good I felt with his fingers inside me and then white hot pain on my side. Then Jaxson got me to the car and told me how sorry he was. I will never forget that. He was so raw and his emotions were so strong. He let me lean on him and he took it upon himself to take care of me. The door opened and a nurse walked in. “Oh, you are awake!” she said, pleasantly. “That will make the men outside happy. Let me tell you girl, those two men are fine as I have ever seen, no offense dear. They each care a lot about you.”
Jaxson POV This girl is going to be the death of me, I swear. I have never talked about my feelings more than I have the last few months. Killing? I can handle that no problem. Business matters? Piece of cake. Fucking? Got that on lock down. Sharing my feelings? Not even a little. I felt vulnerable and exposed. Surprisingly enough, it felt good to talk to her but I almost felt…weak? Maybe that isn’t the right word. That doctor came in and interrupted my thoughts. He is lucky to be alive after that comment to Scarlet. I let my eyes glow red as I put him in his place. If he truly knew her history, no one would blame her for not wanting to live there. I watched her weakly move her legs off the side of the bed. She stopped as she looked at her body and frowned. “Do I
Scarlet POV “I think that is a good idea.” Jaxson said as we pulled up to his packhouse. My nerves got the best of me as I looked at the house. No one was standing outside or anything but his sister was inside and I have never met her before. It is one thing to meet someone as an equal, an Alpha Female but I am meeting her like my mate’s family. Meeting your in-laws, if you will. This was a whole new level. I must have taken too long to get out because Jaxson came around and opened my door for me. As I went to get out, Jaxson carefully picked me up, bridal style and carried me inside. “I can walk, you know?” I said, slightly annoyed. “Yeah but it will take a long time for you to get up the stairs. This is quicker.” He said, taking two steps at a time. Instead of going to my room, he opened up his bedr
Jaxson POV This has got to be the most fuck up thing I have ever had to deal with. Not only can we not find Courtney, Jared is still sending two to three men to “scout” at different places Scarlet might be. It has been a few days since she was stabbed and it seems she is healing really well. I would think she is almost back to normal now. The fax started ringing so I went over to grab them. Five papers printed out with the logo of Angel’s. I just laid it on the desk I had brought in for her. It isn’t anything fancy, as I wanted to try it out first to see if this will even work. I still have my doubts but after I marked her, my feelings have really grown. It was like I never had a choice in the matter. I am not looking forward to telling her more about Courtney. When she didn’t show up at the airport.
Scarlet POV I am feeling great. Healing this time has been so much quicker. I refuse to say it is because I am closer to Jaxson, physically. We have slept beside each other the last few nights and it has been the best sleep of my life. It has taken everything I have in me to not roll over and straddle him. Not sure how many more times I can sing a song in my head to keep myself from getting aroused, thus letting him know. These cucumbers on my eyes smell good as my stomach rumbles. “I am starving!” We have been getting pampered all day. Jennifer has quickly become a good friend to me. I haven’t really confided in her about everything but I did about Courtney and how worried I was. She bugged Jaxson for me so I got a little information but Jaxson told her I needed to heal first and then he would give me an update. Jerk.
Jaxson POV “I have to go” I was livid at councilman Jeff for making this a priority. I mean, it was a priority but damn. Scarlet is looking fucking sexy as hell, was on my lap and all I could think about was to fuck her brains out. Maybe I will sink my teeth into her. I was so close to finally mating her that I could taste it. She is even acting like she is willing too. “Go?” She looked pissed but trying to control herself. Standing up, she bawled her fist up by her side. “I got a job. Councilman Jeff got word that the location of your house was leaked and there was someone sitting on it. I need to take them out.” I couldn’t read her expression as it changed. I had a feeling I wasn’t going to like her response. “I’m coming with you.”
Scarlet POV I moved myself so I was straddling him. This is it, it is time to let go of my fears and put myself out there. I am ready to be loved and treated like I should. I stopped kissing him and pulled away. “I am ready to get burned,” I said for the second time. He looked at me, studying me. “Are you sure? There is no going back. Once I am in you, you are mine and you don’t get to change your mind.” I stood up and grabbed his hand to stand up with me. Without saying a word, I lead him down a path that leads right to my house. The woods were quiet with a blanket of snow. It had started snowing large flakes as we walked to the cabin, leaving our hair with a white coat on it. Neither one of us said a word as we approached my house. It was pitch black, just like we left it. Finding the spare key under a rock in the garden, I was able to unlock the house and we went inside. Just as the door closed, Jaxson flipped me around and pinned me against the door. His body was pressed aga

Scarlet POV “These boys are a handful!” Maverick laughed. Ever since he walked into the hospital room, I knew it would be hard to get rid of him. He has been the most involved uncle and supporter through everything. It has been a full year since I had the boys. The headquarters has finished and we are set to move in next week. Jonathan’s death was ruled undiagnosed diabetes so natural causes were blamed. It was a crazy week but Councilman Mitch had decided to take over Jonathan’s spot in the government. That decision surprised us all since he said he wanted to retire but I guess the money was too good to pass up. Today was a day of celebration and sorrow. Today, I get to marry my best friend and soulmate. Jaxson has been the best father and mate I could have ever asked for. Mason and Courtney are also leaving after the ceremony. After a long heart to heart, they believe this is what is best. Mason is taking a leave of absence from being Beta and going to see if he can work things o
Jaxson POV“I’m here!” I yelled as I sprinted into the hospital. The glass shattered behind me but all I knew was that I needed to get to Scarlet. “GET IN HERE!” Scarlet yelled. She was laying on her back with her feet in the air. It was just a little after 1 am and I sped the whole way after my flight. Jennifer had been calling to update me and I didn’t think I would make it. Rushing to her side, I looked panickedly between her, her exposed area and the doctor who looked calm as can be. “What’s going on?” “She is ten centimeters dilated and is pushing.” The doctor just stared at her vagina that looked more like a purple and blue swollen chunk of flesh. Nothing resembled a vagina that I grew so accustomed to. “AHHH” Scarlet was drenched in sweat as she grabbed my hand to squeeze it. “Breathe in and breathe out.” I tried coaching her through the contraction.“F…fuck…off” she breathed out as she rested her head back on the pillow breathing heavily. She looked at me with so much pai
Scarlet POV “It’s too fucking hot outside to do any walking!” I was complaining to deaf ears as Jennifer pulled on my arm to get me to stand up. “The doctor said it would be good for you to walk around. Get your blood flowing and get that baby to drop.” My stomach was massive at this point and it really hurt my back to be walking or moving around much. “He also said to take it easy!” Fighting her was futile so I just let my legs tremble as she practically lifted me up. “I am massive! Most people don’t get this big!” “Most people don’t have an Alpha male in their stomach.” Jennifer kept her arm around mine so if I went down, she would be able to catch me. It was a real possibility as I waddled my way around to the garden. I have been loving coming out here and sitting for some time. It got me out of the house and outside in the fresh air. We didn’t speak as the hot air ran through our hair, the sun sliding past the moisture that had formed and staining our skin a darker shade.
Jaxson POV “I have to say, it is a pleasure to see you.” I smirked as I hit the emergency shut off switch. There weren't any alarms as Damian had cut them off. “Fuckk hou!” Jonathan tried to stand and swing at me. Stepping back as his fist wildly flew by, he lost his balance and fell to the ground. “You did this to yourself.” Reaching into my pocket, I pulled out the insulin. “It belsonged to me! I sent him down theres and I financsed the trip! Everything he found belonged to me!” Jonathan had stayed on the ground but backed into a corner. Giving up on fighting, he turned to anger. “Wrong. The land is mine and therefore not only were you trespassing, you stole from me. Even if I let you live, I would show proof that it was found in my land and that you stole it from me. What would happen to your reputation then?” I taunted him. Well, half getting my own anger out. “You have no proof!” He yelled. “Maybe not right now but I could get some. Regardless, you aren’t making it ou
Jaxson POV There was no reason to wake up early as the party doesn’t get started until 7pm tonight. I couldn’t take the chance to be seen today so I haven’t left the room. I am so stir crazy that I might just jump out the window for fun. Anthony had left early this morning to fulfill his role in being a waiter and Damian had been popping in and out, trying to run a pack like normal so it didn’t look suspicious. It was finally 6:30pm and the show was about to start. My adrenaline has been pumping for the last few hours as the time drew near. The syringe was capped and in my pocket, my suit was buttoned and my gloves were on. Taking one last look at the elevator system, I felt like I was finally in my element. This was the most public execution I have ever done. It both scared and excited me at the same time. “Ready?” Damian asked as he straightened his tie. “Cameras and everything is all set up so you just need to stay in the background until it is time to see you. I am headed to t
Jaxson POV “I’m not sure, let me text Jasmine…” Damian and I slipped quietly back into the suit so we were not seen. Damian slipped his phone out and began texting Jasmine before putting it on vibrate and setting it on the coffee table. “Maybe he just wanted to avoid a crowd or -” Damian’s phone shook the glass top of the table, interrupting me. My cells were itching forward to see what she said. Not in fear but in excitement. This is the type of shit I love. Spontaneous and using your brain. “She said she was unaware of why he arrived early but apparently her staff got the call an hour ago that he would be here and she was busy making sure accommodations were ready. Her staff got busy and forgot to call her to let her know.” Damian said with a frown. “I could see that. Her staff is trained well and knew what needed to be done to make sure he was happy when arrived. They did mess up by not calling her but still handled it correctly.” “Still doesn’t answer the question on why
Jaxson POV“Jaxson! Over here!” I heard from afar. Looking over the heads of the crowd, I saw Damian waving slightly at me. Nodding and then picking up my bags, I headed over to him. “Hey man!” We slapped hands and into a grip before our elbows hit each other's chest into a manly hug. “Flight go okay?” “Yeah, I didn’t realize we were landing in a public airport.”“Well, my private one got shut down due to “improper lane length” according to the government.” He put quotes in the air around that. “Makes sense really.” I teased“That’s why I need you to get this done ASAP.” “Me too, I would really like to shove his own ass down this throat.” I murmured as we slid into Damian’s car. “I understand you have met the driver before?” Damian motioned and none other than Anthony turned and nodded at me. “Well, fuck me. What are you doing here?” “I worked for the council on government assignments and since we aren’t doing that anymore, I have come to lead my skills to you.”“Please tell m
Jaxson POV- The next few chapters will be Jaxson I’m sitting at my desk staring at the same piece of paper for an hour now. The word denied was plastered in red across the top. It was an application to get a government inspection on the new headquarters that I had built. Since it is a government building, it needs a government inspection to sign off on it. The application was denied because it wasn’t “filled out correctly” and “doesn’t meet the requirements of a government facility”. Which is bullshit but just another than that Jonathan had pushed back against it. This shit was getting ridiculous. I know I can’t let it go on much further but honestly, how would I even do it? I’m not fucking scared to kill him but he is the fucking vice president of the United Fucking States of fucking America! He won’t have wolves guarding him so that should make it easier but I dunno. Pulling out his schedule, I looked at it. He will be in California today and threw the rest of the week. My Alph
