Jax’s POV:Alex knocks at the door, tearing me out of my thoughts. “Brother, I know you’re worried about her right now. But she’s in safety, and you’ve done everything you could to keep her safe. We’ve got more pressing matters right now. The pack needs their Alpha.” I know he’s angry with her for not listening to my orders and distracting me, when my entire attention should have been on protecting the pack and not having to worry about her.“I’ll be right there,” I tell him and take hold of Amelia’s hand again, not wanting to leave her just yet.“Now,” he says with determination, and a little pissed, tapping his hand on the doorframe impatiently. “The first reports are coming in, and the commanders are waiting in the meeting room for their Alpha to give them instructions.” He emphasizes the word Alpha, letting me know he thinks I’m neglecting my duties right now.Alex is the only person besides of Amelia, I’ll ever let talk to me like that. Anyone else would have been in massive trou
Jax’s POV With disbelief, I stare down at Jenny who’s sitting on my couch. “What are you talking about?”Freddie gives her a warning glare, which only causes me to want to know whatever she’s got to say even more.Just as she’s about to start talking, he cuts her off hastily. “We don’t know anything for sure.” And he directs another warning glare towards Jenny who seems a little unfazed by his action.“But you know something.” It’s not a question but a statement. I need to know it, whatever it is, anything to make sense out of this and maybe find a better way to protect Amelia.“We’re here for a reason…” she starts off, and I can see she’s having a battle over mind link with Freddie. “If we can’t trust him, then whom else?” She bluffs at him and adds. “We can only do so much for her. He’s her mate and has got an entire pack behind him, while we’re only the two of us.” I can see the disapproval on his face, but she starts talking anyway.“As Freddie said, we really don’t know much. Our
Jax’s POVJust as the nurse bursts into the room, the lights around us start to flicker strongly. It’s not the first time I’ve noticed this to happen lately. Until they suddenly totally go black, causing the human nurse to shriek again. Luckily, our eyes don’t have an issue. The little light falling in from the windows is enough for us to see clearly. But heartbeat is still racing at her rushing in here like that.“You…. You need to come,” the nurse stutters, totally shocked. “Something is wrong.”All of us jump to our feet and run panicked towards my bedroom. Even from far off, we can see the entire hallway is lit up in a luminescent way and slightly flickering white in the otherwise pitch black hallway. Entering the room, Tonya lets her phone drop to the floor, which she just had been holding to G****e on the myths. And each and every one of us gasps at the sight in front of us. “This is impossible,” Alex whispers with disbelief, resembling my very own thoughts.While they’re all fr
Amelia’s POVI wake up to a warm, fuzzy feeling in the pit of my stomach. For the moment, I don’t even want to open my eyes. I just want to feel this contentment a moment longer. I still feel very exhausted as if I had just run a marathon and spent all my energy on it. My mind is still a little in a haze, but I don’t mind at all as long I can feel this warm fuzziness. So, instead, I decide to snuggle up a little more into the sheets until I suddenly notice a slight weight on my body, causing me to open my eyes instantly.There’s the cause of my warm, fuzzy feeling right against me. Jax is leaning with his head on my shoulders and his arms wrapped tightly around my middle, seemingly fast asleep. My heart starts to go into overdrive at the sight of him cuddled up with me. His beautiful face looks so peaceful in this very moment, but exhausted at the same time. Looking up, I realise I have no idea where the hell I am. Again! This seems to have become a new habit. This isn’t my new apart
Frustrated I’m sitting on the edge of the bed, close to crying in a disappointment and anger, letting my face fall into my palms.“You can’t force it,” Tonya tries to calm me. Telling me the same thing repeatedly as the last couple of days.It’s been three days since the attack and my very first shifting. Now, no matter how often I’ve tried to tell myself to shift since then, it has happened a single time. No, instead, my stupid wolf seems to be ignoring me, too. She's not responding to anything. And to top it off, I haven’t really seen Jax since that morning either anymore.Tonya and Ben have kept me updated mainly. Things are apparently insane out there. There has been so much destruction caused within one night. People are barely able to mourn their loved ones, as they’re too caught up in building things up again. So it’s understandable, Jax can’t be here the entire time, I do miss him, though. I’m still sleeping in his bed while he’s taking the couch for the very few hours he does
My eyes start to glisten at the thoughtfulness of this entire gesture. Drake always made sure I had birthday gifts, and we would celebrate very small with a cake, but no one has ever made this much of an effort. They’re all smiling and excited themselves as if it was their very own birthday.Tonya is all giddy and insists on me opening her gift first while bouncing up and down. Her hands clasp together in front of her while she watches me impatiently unwrap her gift. There are two boxes, one contains a beautiful pair of Louboutin high heels in black patent leather and red soles, and the other has a matching handbag with tinny sequins on it. They’re both beautiful but way over the top, knowing the price of these things.“Oh my god, Tonya! Thank you! But you really shouldn’t have spent such a fortune on me,” I exclaim.A mischievous grin appears on her face, while her eyes dart from me to Jax. “Don’t worry, I paid it with his credit card. But I thought these would be perfect for when we
The way he kisses me feels like I’m his air to breathe, and he is mine. Feeling his lips on mine, the way they move insync with mine, the taste of his tongue and lips, the feeling of the movement, just everything about this kiss is divine and awakening every sense of my body. Even his scent, his aftershave, but also his very own scent of his skin is intoxicating, addicting in every single way. Once tasted, you'll never get enough.My hands wrap around his neck, clasp together behind it, and pull him even closer. Who needs air, if they can have this? The way Jax’s hands run up and down my spine cause sweet shivers, and goosebumps arise all over my body, heightening my senses even more to his touch. I start nibbling and sucking on his bottom lip, causing his grip to tighten on me again. His body pushed up flush against mine, and a small moan escapes his lips. Hearing that tiny moan causes my panties to soak in an instant.“Fuck, Amelia! how am I supposed to stay decent like this?” He br
I want him more than anything right now, but I also want to give him something in return for the pleasures he’s just given me. Licking my lips, I look up at him. “I want to be fucked by you, Jax. But first, I want to taste you, too.” I tell him in a bold manner and feel him twitch again, and his eyes cloud over even more with longing. Instead of waiting for a reply, I push him slightly as a sign for him to move and lay back and pull off his boxers. Once he’s lying on his back, I crawl on top of him and kiss him until we’re both breathless, then slowly start moving down. Kissing his neck, licking the spot where he’s going to wear my mark. His head bends back and a loud “Fuck”, escapes his lips while his eyes clench shut and his fingers run through my hair.If it’s anything to what I felt at that spot, I know it must be driving him insane. I gently nibble there too, before going down further. My breasts caress along his skin, giving a slight friction to my nipples, which turns me on eve
Hi everyone, I haven't forgotten this book.Covid just has been a real b*tch. While I thought I was getting better finally after 2 weeks of Covid, it suddenly spiralled down a lot again. Seems like my other ilnesses have made me very vulnerable. Even if this is my 4th time with Covid, it hit me nearly as bad as the 1st time.Currently, the high dose of cortisone and some oxygen are starting to help. The fever also has come down again. So I will try updating very soon.We're so close to the end of this story, and I feel really bad about not being able to update for so long decently. I hope you understand. Lots of love Jackie♡♡♡♡
My eyes still linger on Jax’s distraught face. Fear of what might have happened to Sybil and Emily or any of the others is nagging at me. But with the knock interrupting us, I know I’m not getting my answer from him right now. I huff slightly in annoyance.“Come in,” Jax calls out. I’m surprised that whoever is there even waited to be called in. Usually there’s only a short knock, and the people enter.Balloons, a huge amount of floating balloons attached to a string, get pushed through the opening door, covering everything behind it. I move left and right, trying to get a glimps of who this might be before the balloons finally move aside and give the view free to my best friends entering the room. Upfront is Ben with the balloons, then comes Tonya with a huge bunch of flowers, followed by Jenny with a tray of cupcakes, and Freddie holds a small teddy bear with "get well" on it. The last one to enter is Alex, holding a huge box of fancy looking chocolates in his hand, giving me the bri
Amelia’s POV:I wake up in an unfamiliar, dark room, but the smell of wounds and disinfectant biting within my nose tells me exactly where I am. I’m obviously at a hospital. Memories come flashing in on me. “Jax!” I sit up abruptly, with my heart thudding violently in my chest. I start throwing the blanket from my body. Panicked, I try to get out of bed until a voice and a hand pressed against my shoulder stop me, and the hand presses me right back into place.“I’m here. I'm here, my love,” I hear his sleepy, deep, and husky voice. “You need to stay in bed.”Without saying another word, I throw my arms around his neck and sob hard against his chest. “I thought……. I thought….I lost you. I thought you were dying,” I cry in relief and pain at the same time. The mere thought of losing him has me totally shook up and causes a pain in my chest, literally taking my breath away. My fingers dig stronger into his back, and I pull him harder into me, making sure he’s really here and not just an
Jax’s POVI feel warmth and power flooding my aching body, relieving the pain and soothing all my senses. Taking deep breaths, my lungs finally expand and fill with air again decently. I was sure I was suffocating only moments ago, I was sure this was it, that I was dying. But then I could feel her, I could feel her love, her power, her body pressed to mine, pulling me out of the dark place I was captivated in. She’s the sole reason the pain is gone, and I’m able to breathe again.Amelia! Without having opened my eyes, I can feel something is terribly wrong. I stir and try my hardest to pry my eyes open. “Amelia!” I choke out and shake her limp body, which is still wrapped around me. “Amelia, wake up!” Nothing happens. It’s then that I notice all the others around us, at least a part of us.Memories of what happened crash in on me, and I remember being buried alive and a sheer amount of bricks coming down after an explosion. By the distraught look on the other faces, I know the situati
“Jax! Jax! Jax!” I call out repeatedly, verbally but also through our mind link, feeling like I'm going out of my mind.No reaction. I can’t even feel him trying to connect with me in return. All I can feel is pain and cold. With Ben and Alex hot on my tracks, I pace through the chaotic state within the arena as fast as possible. I don’t even take much notice of what Emily and Sybil are doing right now.“Amelia!” I feel a little relief seeing Tristan limping towards me. But my heart drops the moment I realise there’s no Jax at his side. They were together. Jax should be with Tristan.“Where is he? Where is Jax?” I question panicked as soon as I reach Tristan.“He…… I…….. He saved my life,” Tristan chokes out, but his words just make me even more nervous. “Then, where is he?” Don’t get me wrong, I am absolutely relieved that Tristan is alive and Jax saved him. But my guts twist into knots, seeing that Jax isn’t here next to him.“He…. He pushed me aside just on time before the bricks c
“The Gold moon Alpha is gone,” one of the warriors calls out, realising the same as I did moments ago.Jax pushes me further behind him. His eyes are scanning the entire place. The longer he’s scanning it, the more I feel him tense. We all know it’s a very bad sign. Drake steps towards Alana and shakes her, seemingly trying to get her back to normal, but I doubt he’s able to shake the possession out of her. Watching him act with her, I wonder if he loves her. If he ever truly loved her? There definitely has been more between them, but it doesn’t look like he cares in the same way for her as she did for him. I can see that now. They were both hungry for power and traded their mate bond for it. From what I know now, Tiffany did the exact same thing. She rejected her weak mate because he wasn’t good enough for her. Instead, she wanted the powerful Alpha with his pack. Drake and Alana both wanted my power. They somehow knew about it.My grip tightens on Jax. For nothing in the world woul
I’m startled by the loud roaring voice echoing through the arena. Jax, next to me, still seems to be searching for the source of the voice, while I am staring at the man causing it. He may be in his early fifties. I know I’ve seen that face from far off on some of Drake’s events. Even if I wouldn’t know him, the facial features are a dead giveaway of who he is.“This gathering is against any agreement we made,” he bellows across the arena angrily at Jax. “You declared an open war to me by dropping my daughter. This is your last chance to rectify the situation. Send that worthless mutt away. Banish her from all pack grounds, make her the rogue she truly is, and I will reconsider a war with you,” the Alpha of the Gold moon pack demands.The crowd, that had been cheering moments ago, now turns silent, looking back and forth between Jax and the Gold moon Alpha, waiting for what is to come next. Jax’s grip tightens on me.“I am sorry if I hurt your and your daughters pride. It was never my
Hi everyone, I had intended on finishing this story this year. Unfortunately, a lot has happened the last couple of weeks.My health has been quite bad. The surgery on my dog has taken a toll and a lot of time, as we've been spending every second at the vet for 3,5 weeks now. Last week, her stitches burst open again. Which needed further treatment. And when things go wrong, they totally go wrong. My electrical wheelchair device totally broke down, too. All of it is taking a toll on my health and is taking a lot of time. My head hasn't really been in the right place to write.As Christmas is also coming, I ofc also have those preparations, which are even more difficult with my broke down wheelchair. So I hope you'll understand that I need to take a little time off. The next update will come on January 1st. To those of you who celebrate Christmas, I wish you a happy and healthy Christmas time.But ofc to all of you others too, have an amazing time. Thanks for your patience. And if y
Jax’s POVI called in an urgent gathering. Most of my people have already met Amelia. The most important ones were at the safe house. But the situation has changed since. At that time, things were still a mess, but now we’re engaged, and she’s officially the future Luna to this pack.Amelia walks up and down the hall nervously, tugging at her clothes. She’s wearing a dark blue pencil dress, Tonya has picked for her. Making her look like a businesswoman. “Do you think they will hate me? I mean, they all knew about Tiffany. I don’t have all that money she can provide or the power of the pack……” she trails off while fidgeting with her fingers.A soft chuckle escapes my lips. “Are you serious right now?”She looks surprised up at my tiny outburst, unable to understand why I think this is funny. I take her hands in mine and gently caress the ring she just had been fidgeting around on. “Amelia, you have more power than any of us. You are the true werewolf queen, the true Luna to all of us.
