Mel's POVHe slams the door shut behind us, the echo reverberating off the tiled walls. He pushes me towards the granite sink, planting my hands on the counter. I feel the cool edge against my palms as he bends me over, my ass poking out for him."Jaxon-" I protest, but he cuts me off, his voice low and menacing.“You’ve been a bad girl tonight,” he growls, leaning close enough that I can feel his hot breath on my neck. “You think you can just act however you want without consequences?”I try to stand, but he presses me back down, his hand firm on my shoulders. He yanks my dress up, and I hear the loud tearing of fabric as he snatches my panties off."His scent is on you.” I look into the mirror and those dark, silver eyes are glaring back at me with malicious intent. I should be trembling, running away, or screaming, but instead, I'm wet for him. The anticipation of him burying himself inside of me just for mentioning another is too much.What the fuck is wrong with me? "Well...I did
Mel's POVI watch as he quickly undoes his belt and uses it to tie my hands together, leaving me completely at his mercy. There's a chance I could've broken the hold of his hands, but this belt is tight and secure. Knotting his hand in my hair, he yanks my head back so I'm looking at our reflection in the mirror. "I'm done with the games, I'm taking MY pussy now," he snarls.I smile smugly. "I thought you said you don't fuck bad girls?""Hmm, I've decided I'll just fuck the bad girl out of you." He spreads my legs farther apart with his knee. "But if it becomes too much for you, tell me to stop, okay?"That's the only warning I get before he impales me with his dick. I cry out as he fucks me hard and fast, his grip firm on my neck, keeping me in place. He leans forward to lick and suck on my neck.My first orgasm arrives within minutes. I scream as I cream all over him, my clit swollen, sensitive and pulsating. He only slows down momentarily before his thrusts pick back up in speed. He
Jaxon’s POVI toss and turn trying to find sleep, but everything feels off. The room feels too hot, then too cold. My pillow is either too firm or too soft. My restlessness only grows as the clock loudly ticks away on the wall.Find mate, Shadow growls, his voice rumbling through my head like distant thunder.Relax, she's in her room. I think we've lost enough control tonight. I didn't plan on fucking her in the bathroom for two hours, but I couldn't stand the sight of that guy talking to her, smiling at her, making her blush—it ignited something dark inside me. On top of that, he's one of the recruits fresh out of high school. She'll be seeing him every day for the next six weeks and it's all my fault. I should’ve assigned her to something else. During training, they'll be sparing, touching, and eventually, he’ll see her shift, meaning she’ll be fucking naked in front of him.Mine, Shadow snarls. His growls are growing louder and louder in my head. I can feel his possessive rage grow
Jaxon's POVThe silence hangs between us, growing heavy. Melanie looks down, seemingly unsure if she overstepped. “It’s okay,” she says quietly. "I understand if you don't trust me enough-”I lift her chin gently, caressing it in my calloused hand. The hurt in her eyes makes it impossible to say no. It's not that I don’t trust her; it’s just that I never planned to tell anyone, especially her, the extent of his abuse."It's not you, Mel. It's just hard to talk about," I admit."Well, I’m here for you, Jaxon." She climbs into my lap, straddling my waist. Before I can ask her what she's doing, her lips brush against my neck. "Does this make it easier to talk about it?" she whispers, her warm breath sending shivers down my spine."Not at all," I chuckle hoarsely. The effect she has on me should be a crime. I can’t focus on shit but my need to claim her, to show her that if she wants me, I’m all hers.She plants a trail of kisses up my neck, her lips soft and teasing. When she reaches my e
Jaxon's POVThe words are getting a bit harder to get out now, but I endure. "After he died, Mom was drowning in grief, and Alpha Damon took that opportunity to convince her that he was the second-best role model for me. He told her making me the next Alpha is the least he could do, since he wasn't there to save my father."My eyes fly open, and I gaze down at her looking like a drooling mess. Those violet eyes hold me captive. Possessing me. Begging me to claim her. Entangling my hands even tighter in her hair, I hold her in place as my hips rock to create longer deeper thrusts."I thought becoming Alpha would make my dad proud, so I fought hard for it, even if it made you hate me. Took whatever Alpha Damon handed to me—torture, beatings, his Alpha tone bending me to his will. Even murdering innocent people for him. I thought, ‘this is completely normal, this is what an Alpha does.’ I couldn't have been more fucking wrong." My words are intertwined with fire, poison, wolfsbane...fuck,
Jaxon's POV Flashback*We are infiltrating yet another pack for Alpha's collection. Blood-curdled screams ring out in all directions as innocent wolves and warriors are slaughtered. Alpha decided that he doesn’t want more hungry mouths to feed, so he ordered us to ‘take care’ of everyone. This pack doesn’t stand a chance against us; we wipe them out easily.There’s one last survivor—well victim—to deal with. Of course, Alpha leaves him to me. I chase the little brown wolf through the forest, my paws pounding against the earth. It doesn’t take long to catch up with him. I lunge at him, sinking my teeth into his hind leg. He yelps, immediately shifts back into a human.His face is consumed in fear, his brown eyes reflecting Shadow with blood seeping from our mouth. The naked man scurries backward against a tree, bleedings, sobbing as he realizes he has nowhere else to run.As I stalk closer, I realize he’s only a kid. He looks about sixteen, probably just learning how to shift. But he w
Jaxon's POV Once I’m done sharing the memory, tears stream down Melanie's face as she looks at me with a mix of pity and fear. "Dad told us Ameer transferred from another pack,” she whispers.Of course, the fucker did. "Yeah,” I laugh bitterly. “After we killed everyone from his former one.”"H-He's so much worse than I ever imagined," she mutters, almost to herself, her eyes wide with disbelief."You see, that's why I desire the Elders' approval,” I explain, my voice low. “I don't want the unchecked power Damon had. I don't want to be the kind of Alpha that everyone fears and hates. I don't want to be a monster like him, Mel."Melanie sits up and cups my face in her hands. "You won't be," she whispers, her soft gaze locked with mine.Her reassurance is a balm to my soul. I rest my forehead against hers, closing my eyes. “I can’t let him win,” I murmur. “I have to be different. To be an Alpha my father wanted me to be, one the pack deserves.”“I believe in you, Jaxon. I won’t allow y
Mel’s POVI awaken to an empty bed. The clock says that it's 5am, so that must mean he must've left a while ago to do patrol with Ameer. My heart pangs at the fact he didn't ask me to join them, but maybe he just wanted me to get more sleep.I didn’t realize it until now, but I have one of the most important jobs in the pack. I’m training the warriors that will defend our Alpha and pack in battle. If I don’t do a good job, I could be the reason Jaxon is injured or killed, and that’s the furthest thing from what I want.Things are getting serious between us, way too fast. Exclusive fuck buddies? It’s perilously close to a full-blown relationship. Not that I have any interest in sleeping with anyone else, but even if I desired more, it seems pointless with the Mating Ball coming up in only two weeks.Sighing, I get up and shower, shaving my entire body until I’m as smooth as the day I was born. Then, I pull my hair into a high ponytail, and throw on a plain white shirt and some black gym
