Jaxson POV The pin and needle pain shot through my arm but I dared not to move in fear of waking Scarlet up. The sun was barely visible but my nerves were already shot. How the fuck am I suppose to let my pregnant fiance, mate and luna to fight to the death with an ex fling? Rolling over, I tried to reposition my shoulder to allow blood flow to my fingers with no such luck. Instead, I settled for placing my hand over her stomach to feel for any kicks. My little boy didn’t disappoint as soon as I placed my hand on her stomach, he started kicking away. “That is one way to be woken up, by the little demon trying to get out of you.” Scarlet yawned. “He is not a demon!” I shook my head at her description of what it felt like to feel the baby’s kick. “No uterus, no opinion” Scarlet rolled her eyes at me but was smiling. “How much longer till we will finally know if it is a boy or girl?” I asked as I retracted my arm. Shaking it to allow the blood to flow back to my fingers. “Next we
Scarlet POV The bell rang and Michelle came flying at me. She had this crazed look in her eyes that honestly scared the crap out of me. She went for the obvious strike and threw her right arm that was pulled back for ten feet before she got to me. I saw it coming so I was able to dodge it. She wasn’t giving up as she continued to throw her left fist then her right. It was all I could do to block every strike. My movements were a blur as I felt the sting in my forearm each time I blocked her. At the last second, I saw her body twist and she brought her knee up. I did the only thing I could think of and turn to the side and take the knee to my hip. It hurt like a mother fucker as the sharp pain of her knee hitting my bone. My leg instantly went dead and I dropped a little. Thankfully, she missed her mark as I dropped and was thrown off balance. Without thinking, I punched her twice in the stomach before I got my footing and as she was hunched over me, I stood up delivering an upperc
Jaxson POV “Well, that was entertaining to say the least!” The voice I heard behind me made every hair in my body raise. Standing up was easy when all your muscles are tensed and ready to go at any minute. A warrior handed me some shorts that I quickly put on. “Councilman Mitch, I didn’t expect to see you here today.” I said politely “I just wanted to pop over and watch the challenges. I had no doubt they would be held correctly but it was nice to see an Alpha that obeys the law!” Councilman Mitch walked inside the cage and looked at a dead Jared in a pool of his own blood. “I will always follow the rules.” I wasn’t sure what I needed to say. Everything sounded wrong anymore and I was feeling like there was a double meaning to everything he said now. “I have no doubt about that! Looks like this was an easy kill for you.” “Very, he was pathetic and I had a lot of built up resentment towards him I needed to let out. He died before I was fully satisfied but whatever. Losing the
Scarlet POV Waking up this morning wasn’t as hard as I expected it to be. Yeah, I was sore but I felt worse and my excitement overpowered any stiffness I was feeling. Since I was technically supposed to keep it easy and not do much, we decided a pool day would be in order. I guess Jennifer and Kyle don’t get to go swimming a lot so this is what we are doing as we meet him. Looking at the clock, it was already 10am and Jaxson was gone. Most likely already working as there was so much to do but my mind was on swimming so he can fill me in later. Rolling out of bed, and making my way to the closet to find my bathing suit. Not sure if it will even fit but whatever. It was easy enough to find as it was in my underwear. I found two separate ones. Both were bikinis. The first one was an adjustable top with bottoms that were more like a thong. The bright yellow kind of flushed my skin since I haven’t been able to tan much and with how large my breasts have grown, I felt really uncomfortabl
Jaxson POV “I appreciate you coming here to help us.” I said to Kyle as we walked into my office. “No problem. I was missing Jennifer and anytime I can come visit is good. Besides, it was getting quite boring back home. Sometimes, an Alpha just needs some action.” “I can’t disagree with you there but I think I have seen enough action for a while.” I laughed as I sat down in my chair. Kyle took a chair in front of my desk. “Scarlet seems nice. The mated life suits you.” Kyle smiled at me. He knew of my playboy ways and what having a mate actually meant to someone like me. “She is everything I’m not. We are having a boy in about four months.” I agreed with Kyle. “Congratulations!” Kyle said as he nodded. I know children are a sore spot for Kyle and Jennifer so I didn’t stay on this topic. “Thanks. So what has Jennifer filled you in on?” “Basics just in case the lines weren’t safe.” Kyle got straight to business mode. “Okay, long story short, here we go. I had a fling, bed
Scarlet POV My day of relaxation is over and today is going to be all about the crazy. I just slipped out of the shower and put on a cotton maternity dress with sandals. It was all gray in color with three white buttons down and flowed out. Dresses I have found are more comfortable then leggings at this point so ordering more will be needed. I pulled my hair off to the side in a braid and just applied a light layer of makeup. I was not only a Luna but I am going to get married so I didn’t need to look all dolled up but still presentable. I decided to work out of Jaxson’s office today since I need to make phone calls and I will be in and out all day regardless. Jaxson, of course, is pissed I am not “taking it easy” but I am in a way. I’m not walking everywhere and if I leave the packhouse, I promised to take a golf cart…slowly. Jaxson still wasn’t fully convinced so he sent out a mass mind-link that if anyone runs into me today, they are supposed to make sure I am comfortable, my w
Jaxson POV I am just beyond livid. Thank the fucking Mood Goddess that people decided to sleep in and not be on time for the sorting otherwise our warriors would have been all over and not been able to get these rogues! Kyle and I were running full speed, leaving our warriors behind us as we were faster. Mason was just a little behind us otherwise, just knowing our mates were in the center of it was terrifying. The snarls were loud as we approached the development. I saw a rogue had three kids pinned and the little boy was showing zero fear as he threw rocks at the rogue. Two little girls were huddled together, screaming in fear. Without hesitating, Colt barreled straight into his side and rolled him over and away from the kids. Without even stopping, Colt bit down on the neck and ripped it out, accidentally spraying blood all over the kids. The girls stopped crying and looked shocked and the boy was smiling as he jumped up and down hollering. Shifting back, I ran up to them as th
Scarlet POV We took the kids into the kitchen and sat them down. It didn’t look like they had a proper meal in days but they needed to be eased into food again. Grabbing some water and yogurt, I placed it in front of each kid. Then I grabbed the half sandwiches that were left over and brought them to the kids to eat. They hungerly devoured the food till they couldn’t eat anymore. “Thank you.” Tommy said. He had a little bit of mayo on his cheek. Laughing, I handed him a napkin which he took and used. “You are very welcome, now it is time to shower and get cleaned up!” I said. They all followed me to a guest room that I had set up for them. There were seven different beddings placed in the room so they could all stay together. I figured they would be more comfortable this way. Each bedding was a small pile of clothing for each kid. “One at a time may get their clothes and shower.” “Oh me first!” A little girl yelled. She grabbed her clothes and ran to the bathroom surprisingly fa
