Mel’s POV

“Jaxon!” Ava cries, running full speed into her big brother’s arms. He scoops her up and spins her around as they both grin and laugh. I ignore the warm feeling watching them spreads through my chest. I can’t deny that even though he’s an asshole, he’s an amazing big brother.

I wait for Moon to come out of the building, but she doesn’t. Panic immediately surges through me. “Ava, where is my sister?” I ask, concealing my worry.

Ava blinks up at me with wide, green eyes—the same beautiful shade as Jaxon’s. “She was crying when the bell rang, and Mrs. Jones told her to stay behind.”

My heart sinks. What if her teacher calls our parents? That’s the last thing we need. I take off towards the building, shouting, “I’ll be right back!”

The hallway seems longer than usual as I follow Moon’s scent into the classroom. Mrs. Jones sits at her desk, while Moon sits across from her sobbing into her hands. As soon as she sees me, Mom runs over and throws her arms around me. My heart twists a

    Mel's POVWe pull into the parking lot, and I find a spot right in front. The girls run ahead of us toward the playground. Jaxon joins me on the bench, where we can keep a watchful eye on them while they play. Their laughter and joy fill the air, a stark contrast to the tension between Jaxon and me.“So…you still hate me, huh?” he asks, his voice dripping with amusement. He leans back on the bench, resting one arm behind me.I scoff. “That’s never going to change. You’re cocky, annoying…a huge asshole-”Before I can finish my sentence, he suddenly grabs me firmly by the throat. I shiver in pleasure as he grazes his canines against the back of my ear.His voice drops low and seductive. “But every time I’m near you, I feel your heart race. I smell how wet your pussy gets for me.” I swallow hard, clenching my thighs together. “You hate me, but at the same time, I bet you can’t wait for me to bury my cock inside of you.”I roll my eyes, trying to ignore the pressure building in my belly. “

    Mel's POVWho is he to tell me what I need? I huff as I storm into the guest room and take a long, relaxing shower. He doesn’t know shit about me or our situation! But a small part of me knows that he is right, even though I will never admit that to his face. I’m fucking exhausted—physically, mentally, and emotionally. I just spent the last year in the Alpha Academy getting my ass demolished every day to gain nothing from it. Then, I’m on edge all the time now worrying about mine and Moon’s future. And if for whatever reason Jaxon decides to change his mind about me being his Beta, we would most definitely have to become rogues, or I would have to beg him to let us go to another pack.I step out of the shower and lay on the bed naked. Closing my eyes, I think about what Jaxon said earlier: Every time I’m near you, I feel your heart race. I smell how wet your pussy gets for me.He’s a cocky asshole that I hate so damn much, but my body responds to him as if I am a puppet and he is the m

    Mel's POVHe tortuously licks and sucks on my thighs, coming closer and closer to my heated core. I can’t take it anymore. I need his tongue inside of me!I release a frustrated breath. “Either lick it or let go of me Jaxon,” I nearly growl.He glances up at me, smirking. “Impatient, are we?”I watch his eyes grow even darker as he runs his thumb along my folds. “You’re so wet,” he croons cruelly. “I think I want to tease you a little while longer.”He goes back to licking my thighs before stopping to kiss the top of my pussy. “How badly do you want it, Melanie?” he rasps.Rolling my eyes, I reply, “Not enough to beg for it, if that’s what you’re asking.”“Hmm, that’s a shame. I bet I can change that.”I reach down to grab his hair, but he slaps my hand away. “I didn’t say you could do that. Try it again and I’ll tie your hands to the headboard.”My eyes widen at the audacity. “You wouldn’t!” I hiss.“Try me.”There’s no way I’m allowing him to think he owns me or something. He better

    Jaxon’s POVI wake up the next morning, unable to contain the smile on my face. Last night was…different. Amazing even. I can’t believe I actually grew enough balls to touch her. She tasted so sweet on my tongue, and when she finally begged me to fuck her…Just the memory of it makes me hard all over again.After a quick masturbation session in the shower, I do my morning run with Ameer. “How are you doing…you know, since the breakup with Kaylee?” he asks as he jogs beside me.“I’m good. I’m actually enjoying the company of someone else.” Flashes of last night replay in my mind and I have to fight to hide my grin.He comes to a halt, putting his hand in front of my chest to make me stop. “Who? I know it’s not Melanie.” My silence confirms it. “I know you liked her when you were kids, but she acts like she hates your guts. Plus, she’s so stubborn and hot-headed. What is there to like now?” “There’s nothing wrong with her, Ameer. Remember, she’s got Alpha blood in her. She’s not meant t

    Jaxon's POVI smell her arousal, but the knocks suddenly become more demanding. As I head towards the sound, a familiar scent violates my nose. “What the fuck do you want, Kaylee?” I growl, yanking the door open.She looks up at me with wide, fearful eyes. “W-We need to talk.”“We have nothing to talk about.” I start to slam the door in her face, but she blocks it with her hand.“Please, just hear me out. I’m begging you, Jaxon.”Seriously? After I caught her banging some dude in the bathroom, and she literally stared me in the face with no remorse as she did it, she wants to talk? About what? There’s no chance in hell I could ever forgive her, much less want her back.I grunt, annoyed but curious. “Fine. Make it quick.” She brushes past me and sits down on the loveseat in the living room. She’s wearing a tight red dress that shows off her cleavage. It’s exactly the kind of thing I used to like, but now everything about her repulses me.I guess that’s what happens when you find out the

    Mel's POVThe rest of the week, I manage to avoid Jaxon. I pick up Moon from school early and only drop her off at the house after Elinda gets home from work. It sucks seeing my sister less, but I know she’s in good hands and I don’t have to see him.Staying with Bliss isn’t too bad. Sure, she probably has sex with Patrick every night, but at least all the rooms in her apartment are soundproof. I only have to see the aftermath of her disheveled hair and the constant trips to the kitchen for water.This morning, I wake up early and park across the street from Moon’s school, just to make sure Elinda drops her off. Once Moon skips into the school, I head to the diner to meet Bliss and Patrick."Hey Mel, what are you going to do now that you've graduated the Academy and you're not going to be Alpha?" Patrick asks, shoving a piece of bacon into his mouth.Bliss glares at him. "Pat, I told you not to ask her that!" She mouths "sorry" to me.I shrug. "That's okay. I'm just going to be another

    Mel's POVBoth of them stare at me with raised eyebrows.“Okayyy, I see you defending your man!” Bliss teases, smirking.I pretend to gag. “Eww, no. I just know Jaxon wouldn’t do that. He’s about to be Alpha, and a scandal like that would turn the pack against him.”“Yeah, I guess you’re right. They just wait until after to start fucking everything that moves,” she grimaces.She’s right about that, though. Until Alphas find their mates, and sometimes even after, they start thinking they’re Goddess’s gift to women or something. I can only imagine how much worse Jaxon’s ego might get.Like his head could get any bigger…Pat finally raises his head from his phone. “I just texted my friend, Malcom. He said he’ll come by the house to pick you up tomorrow.”I don’t know who Malcom is, but I guess I’ll meet him tomorrow night.I smile. “Cool, thanks Pat!” I say, trying to sound more enthusiastic than I feel. I’m a little nervous now, but this is the right move. This way Jaxon will have no cho

    Mel's POVAs I chop up the vegetables for the soup, Elinda makes the roux for the soup. “So, what is going on between you and Jaxon?” she pries shamelessly.“Between us?” Absolutely nothing!She glances at me as she stirs our dinner. “Well, something must have happened since you’re actively avoiding him, and he’s been moping around the house ever since you left.”The thought of Jaxon, a fully grown Alpha-to-be, sulking makes me laugh internally. What does he have to be upset about? Tomorrow, this entire territory will be his to rule. I would call that a massive win in my book.“I think Jaxon likes me, but I have a boyfriend.” This is less embarrassing than the truth. It’s not like I can tell her that the earthshattering oral sex that her son gave me made me develop confusing feelings that I’m trying to run away from.Elinda goes silent for a long moment, probably weighing her words. “Well, that shouldn’t be a problem soon, right? The Mating Ball is only a few weeks away. I’m sure both

I can't shake the feeling that someone's here that shouldn't be, but I'm not picking up any dark energy.When the line finally ends, Jaxon goes to mingle with the other Alphas. Since Zion is safely sleeping in the bassinet, I decide to walk around the building searching for the source of my anxiety. As I grab a flask of sparkling cider from one of the Omegas, I hear a familiar voice behind me. "Luna Melanie, it's nice to see you again," he rumbles, snapping me from my thoughts. It's Alpha Raeden with his mate at his side. "This is my Luna, Caroline."I smile warmly at her. "It's a pleasure to meet you.""Likewise.

Maybe this was intentional, like he wanted to lure us out.There's a smug grin on his face as he gets closer, his yellow eyes twinkling with amusement."Take one more step and I won't hesitate to kill you," I warn callously. Nina flashes in my eyes, but that doesn't seem to deter him.He roars with laughter. "Aww, what are you going to do? I bet you can't even fight your own battles, huh Princess? Got those two men to be your body guards while you pretend to be the big bitch in charge?" he taunts.He couldn't be more wrong. Unlike Ayla, I can fight my own battles. They're just here for backup. But I don't need to prove shit to him.The other rogues are all gathered silently watching the show.

"Sorry baby girl, you told not to take it easy on you unless I don't want to touch you for the rest of your pregnancy." He leans down to my ear. "Two months without that beautiful, tight pussy would kill me."I shudder at his words, pleasurable shivers going up my spine. His grin widens at the smell of my arousal. "Although, I'm sure you would've given in before the day was over."I scoff. "No, I wouldn't have."He raises his hands in surrender and takes a step back.

The sound of our bodies clashing together echoes throughout the cave and it's hot as fuck. With one hand tightly gripping her waist, I close my other around her throat. I pull away from her mouth and slow down my pace to look at her. "I'm so proud of you," I breathe, "you're so amazing in every way and I'm grateful for every day that I get to call you mine."I can see the emotion in her eyes, and I know my words have touched her deeply.

My eyes quickly adjust to the lack of light, and I can practically feel the heat rolling off my mate from the other end of the cave. With my head hanging low and teeth bared, I close in on her like a predator about to pounce on its prey. Her eyes dart around, searching for an escape, but she quickly realizes there's no way out. As we both shift, I close the gap between us. She kneels, gazing up at me in the dark. A smirk forms on my face as I say, "Looks like you lost, baby girl. Better luck next time."Her eyes trail down my body until she reaches my throbbing erection. "Pity. Thought I could've gotten you a little more worked up first." Her tongue darts out to lick her lips.

We've got eleven packs without Alphas, but with Mel's help, Dusk and Rubeus are finding worthy replacements to preserve the peace we fought so hard for. Not only has she proven her worth to the pack, but she eliminated the most corrupt Alphas there were and prevented Ayla from literally taking over the world.Goddess, I can't even describe how thrilled I am that the bitch is dead.

Ayla stammers, still in shock."In a dream, the Moon Goddess granted me the Eternalbane dagger,” Dusk explains. “I never expected to use it, but she revealed the growing darkness within your heart. I was too blinded by love to believe it. It wasn't until Jaxon uncovered your role in my mate's death and you erased his memories, I knew that it was time. I would never let you do to Melanie what you did to me!"My mouth drops open. When did she erase Jaxon's memories, and how did I not notice?He quickly helps Rubeus to his feet. "You okay?"He winces, watching Ayla whither on the ground in agony. "I'll be fine. I thought she couldn't die?""The dagger only ended her immortality. Melanie will be the one to finish her off." There's a murderous intensity on his face as he hands me the blade. "Kill her and make it painful."Jaxon's fingers press against my waist, a gentle squeeze before he reluctantly releases his hold.
