Chapter 98 – Piglet

Emily's POV

Jax had switched on the radio, and he was quietly humming to some unknown tune.

That was what I liked about Jax; he was always quiet, observed things, and kept to himself.

I have been out with Jax on a couple of expeditions, some of which were more dangerous than others. He had my back, and I had his. He was kind of fun to be around, and I could understand why he and Mila fit together perfectly.

"A penny for your thoughts?" Jax asked, shifting his gaze to look at me.

"Just thinking of today's training sessions," I answered.

"Did it go well?" he asked, sounding interested.

"The men did okay. They just lack focus," I said. "And I might have bruised Alpha Alex's ego, but I did warn him, but he didn't listen."

"I heard," Jax said. "But in his defense, did you tell him about what you were about to do?"

I shook my head.

"No," I replied. "But I did tell him numerous times to keep his focus. I am capable of fending for myself."

"It's instinct," Jax said. "To protect what is his."
