Thank you all for reading!!
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
Jaxson POV “Do you hear that?” Kyle asked. The music was up and I was in my own head so I wasn’t fully paying attention. He had turned the music down. Rolling the windows down, I heard it. “That is our imminent threat alert.” I said gravely as I put the gas to the floor. “Scarlet?” I tried to reach her mind-link but I was still too far away. Looking around, I realized I didn’t bring my cell phone either as we left right away. “FUCK!” I yelled as I slammed my fist on the steering wheel. As we got closer, the town looked like a ghost town. So at least the alarm was working. “Scarlet?” I tried again. “Finally fucking time!” Scarlet was pissed. “Hurry up, I need you!” “Are we under attack, what happened?” “Just get here! No attack yet…here.” The threat alarm shut off as we pulled into the packhouse. There was a helicopter sitting in my front yard and to say I was confused would be an understatement. Getting out, we rushed inside and to my office. I was not prepared for what
Jaxson POV “Scarlet, please…please stay here this time.” I did not want a repeat of her watching an interrogation. I got new knives and I was anxious to try them out but I rather her not witness that. Plus the things I will have to say in there are not what I want her to hear. “Believe me, I have no want or reason to watch another one.” Her belly was getting bigger each day and she has started to wobble when she walks. I won’t be the one to tell her that but it is adorable. “Good. I will let you know when we are done and what he said, okay?” “Sounds good.” She was sitting at her desk with a tub of ice cream. I gave her a kiss on the forehead goodbye as Kyle and I walked out. Mason was already down there, probably talking to Courtney. “Ready for this?” Kyle asked. “Fuck yeah. I have new knives I am ready to try out. Haven’t even been used.” They should slice through the skin easily. “Will you let me have any fun?” Kyle asked, smiling. This is one of the ways we are able to get
Jaxson POV It was 4:30am the next morning and the storm clouds had rolled it. The thunder and lighting was impressive but the rain had yet to show itself. The wind was blowing up to 40mph gusts of winds as the heavens threatened harm to those who were outside. Unfortunately, we will be braving this storm to get the assassin. Sitting in my office, Kyle, Mason and a few head warriors were present as we strategized. This needs to be perfect and if he is keeping those people for experiments, then we can’t wait another day. They needed to be saved. The plan was to be discrete so he wouldn’t be spooked or kill his hostages before we could get to him. With my skills, I would be going in alone and Kyle and Mason would be very close incase I needed help. Everyone else will be waiting back a little for the signal to attack. We were dressed in all black. I had pulled out my black cargo pants, black athletic jacket with a tank under it. Our faces had black smeared on them to blend it but w
Jaxson POV On the way back, I called Mitch to fill him in. “Hello?” “Jaxson? Tell me you got good news?” “We got him, I am doing the interrogations right away. We have evidence of a statewide chemical attack. You need to come down ASAP and look at this. This will kill every living thing that drinks water in the state of Montana.” “Fuck, getting in the hellicopter now.” He hung up. It was still dark out as the thunderstorm kept the sun from shining. The clock read 10:27am so I knew Scarlet would be awake. Pressing send, I called her next. “Jaxson?” “I need you and Jennifer to be in the office in 10 minutes. We have a huge problem on our hands.” “W-what happened? Did you get him?” “We did and so much more. I will explain when I get back but be in the office and ready to look at paperwork. Keep this to yourselves. We don’t need a panic in the pack.” “Obviously…” She sounded annoyed at that and I couldn’t really blame her but I had to say it. “Thank you, love you.” I said
