All Chapters of Deadly Mate: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Jaxson POV Last night was great. Not only did I beat my sister, I got engaged to Scarlet. As quietly as I could, I started picking up the chips that were thrown around the room. Flash back “And the river card is…” Mason said as we all were waiting for the flip. “7 of clubs!” Fuck yeah! I had two pairs, Ace high. That should beat Jennifer. She had to bet and she put in $300. So I matched her and since she was first, she had to flip first. She flipped over two pairs also, two Jacks and two sevens. Jennifer looked pretty proud of herself but I knew I won. “Well, sis…” I said, trying to make it sound like she won. “That sucks for you!” flipping over my cards so she saw that I won. She got so mad she flipped the table and left. We all died of laughter but Mason and Courtney decided to leave as well. End of Flashback “Jaxson?” I heard a sleepy voice call out from somewhere under the covers. “Yes?” I responded back. “What are you doing?” “Cleaning up, we fell asleep after we sta

Jaxson POV “What are you doing, Mason?” I was seriously getting annoyed with him. “I was looking for you. Lunch is ready.” Mason shrugged. “I don’t know man, it has just been so long since we hung out, just us.” We were both clearly uncomfortable but I realized he needed to not feel like he was losing our friendship. “I know man, maybe we can have a guys night and do something together?” Mason nodded but didn’t say much. We both knew that wasn’t going to be able to happen any time soon. “Look, I haven’t gotten a chance to ask you yet, but will you be my best man?” Mason’s face snapped up to me and looked completely shocked. “Seriously?” “Well, yeah! We have been friends since childhood. Who else would be my best man?” I really did want him as my best man but this wasn’t how I assumed this would go. “I mean, I dunno but yeah, I will definitely be your best man!” Mason said and came in for a hug. “Alright, enough girly shit, let’s go eat.” I said. We started walking to the kit

Jaxson POV Fucking pregnany nympho… I swear, this girl will be the death of me. Unlocking the front door to my actual house and walking in was refreshing. It was a two story, mid century house that was designed for comfort. Earthy tones, carpet, light gray walls, with tile in the kitchen and bathrooms. It was home. Nothing about this screamed Alpha or money but love and comfort. It was my home to get away from everything. The walls were filled with pictures of my childhood and my life up until this point. Walking upstairs, there were three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a little family room that looked over the living room. The master bedroom had a king size bed in it with cotton white bedding. A bassinet could go right beside the bed and maybe a crib in one of the spare bedrooms? Either way, I spent the next hour going through the house. Cleaning any dust and spraying some air freshener around so the whole house smells clean. I wasn’t a dirty person per say but I haven’t been to this

Jaxson POV “Alpha! Rouges invading on the East border!” I got an urgent mind-link from a warrior that sounded like he was already engaging in a fight. “FUCK! Rouges are attacking, East border. Go to the office and lock the room down!” I practically yelled at Scarlet before kissing her and running out the door. “Mason! Rouges, East border. Send Courtney with Scarlet to the safe room in my office.” “Fuck!” Mason replied back. I knew the girls could probably handle their own but Scarlet is pregnant and that changes things. Shifting mid air as I flew out the front door, the earth oozed under my paws as I ran as fast as I possibly could. I felt Mason behind me but as an alpha, I was faster. Approaching the East part of the pack, I saw my warriors had already been handling the fight so far but they were outnumbered. “All warriors, attack on the East border!” I send a full pack alert to get everyone here, ASAP. Most people who could not defend themselves were already at Alpha Maverick

Jaxson POV The hot water spraying my back was doing little to ease the tension I was feeling. It was five fucking a.m in the morning. Pretty sure I didn’t sleep at all. Scarlet was like dead to the world. So much was riding on this but I just had a feeling that things weren’t going to be over after this, regardless of the outcome. I still had to find Penelope’s killer. If there is another assassin out there, that is bad news to us. Scarlet had to come and testify. It will be so much harder to keep her safe outside the walls of my pack. Any number of things could happen. We could get into a plane crash, car wreck or even someone could blow the court up. I never really thought about all the ways to kill someone until you are trying to protect someone. Even as an assassin. The bathroom door flew open and brought me out of my thoughts. I was about to see who it was but the sound of someone vomiting filled the room. Scarlet has had a rough couple morning lately with this pregnancy. Shutt
