All Chapters of Marked by the Heir Alpha: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

JAX:Rozeta wasn't the only one tensed. I was too. The only difference between both of us at the moment is that I was hiding it while she wasn't.She made it clear all through as I held her hand and pulled her through the woods of the pack harboring us. She called it a bad idea that we were even attempting to exit the pack but I told her that she had nothing to worry about because I already ransacked through the area. But did that work? Definitely not.The only hope I have right now is that we make it out through the woods with fewer complaints than what we started with. To be honest, I won't be surprised if we end up encountering any of this pack's warriors. It would be the height of it but I can't rule that out."This is such a bad idea," she laments for the umpteenth time. To be honest, I was getting tired of it.I ignore her. I have tried my best to convince her so saying anything this time around would be me patronizing her. Would she want me to just leave her in the pack? Or wou

ROZETA:"I was still a kid when it happened. That day, I decided to wander off alone all in the name of fun," I pause for a second before continuing, "I don't know where I was wandering off to but I do remember arriving in front of a lake which I walked into. I had no experience whatsoever on how to handle myself in a body of water but I stupidly found myself walking deep into the like until I lost my balance and had to resort to swimming. Unfortunately, I couldn't swim and the last thing I remember that day was me struggling to survive inside the lake."Perhaps I shouldn't have said anything to Jax because explaining my predicament only made me feel worse than I already was. It was something that I have pushed deep down inside of me. A traumatic experience, I would have to call it. And apparently talking about it couldn't work.I look up to notice that Jax had his gaze on me. It was like he was scrutinizing him and as much as I wanted to know why he was doing that, I still found it w

ROZETA:It just dawned on me that I wasn't fully safe from the wrath of a lot of people. I might have survived all through but that won't stop them from coming for me.I keep going from one trouble to another so much that I can't even keep up with the events that have happened in my life. All I can recall mostly is how messy it has been all through for me and how destabilized I've been as well.Jax's grip on my wrist was tight that I was sure my arm would rip from my body. I don't know what momentum he was using to carry on at the moment but it was scary. Especially after seeing him snap the neck of someone in front of me.I guess I was having this reaction because it was the first time I was seeing him do such and even though I should be used to anything that happens in the world of the wolves, it wasn't easy for me.Jax was furious. I didn't need anyone to tell me that he was. I could see it myself and the fact that he seems to be taking it out on me was so not cool.It got to a poi

ROZETA:Being wrapped in the arms of a man is not how I pictured waking up in the woods. Even with how unplanned it was, it still felt therapeutic enough for a lost soul like me.As my eyes become clear enough, I try to gauge my environment. It didn't take me long to discover it was where I slept off and the supposed man who had his arms around me was Jax, judging from his particular scent that has come to make an impact on me.My head lay on his broad chest, giving me a direct connection with his heartbeat. It was soft and almost too calm for me that I find myself craving more of it often.I have to gently shift back to give me space to check his face. He could still be sleeping so I pushed back with ease until I had enough space to look up.As soon as my eyes linger up, it goes back down at the same time, with my heart almost going into a frenzy. This is because Jax was fully awake with his eyes looking down at me.I didn't expect him to be awake. Neither did I expect that he would

ROZETA:It was weird, but I felt an instant connection the moment Jax and I arrived in front of a gateway similar to the one we exited from.I couldn't help but ask, "This is it, right?" My eyes were up as I looked toward him, anticipating an answer that way.He looks down for a brief second and instead of saying anything, just nods. At least that was confirmation of my question.After all the travels and trials I've been through, I was finally in front of the Silver Falls pack. The pack where I should be called a member but then I was placed on a death radar due to unforeseen circumstances.Anxiety begins to eat me up almost instantly, especially when I figure that we are this close to getting in. Okay, this might sound stupid but I want to go back already.I don't know if Jax was feeling the same way I was feeling. Looking at him, he looked more relaxed than ever. It could be a fake because he was certainly good at hiding his true emotions. So until he says to me that he was indeed
