Semua Bab Kissed by the Moon Goddess: Bab 91 - Bab 100

Mel’s POV"So, where are we going?" I ask, gazing out the window. We have been driving for at least thirty minutes now and our surroundings have become unfamiliar. If I didn't know any better, I would think he's attempting to kidnap me. I can only imagine Jaxon's wrath if that were the case."Have you never been outside pack lands?" Malcom asks astonishingly. It almost sounds like he's making fun of me, but I could just be extra defensive due to the topic.I can't help but grind my teeth together anyway. "No. Being the Alpha's daughter, I wasn't allowed to in order to prevent other packs from kidnapping and using me for ransom.""Oh, so he wasn't a complete monster. That means he cared at least a little bit, right?" he mumbles.Alpha Damon care about me? Yeah right. I scoff. "More like cared about not losing any of his money or territory."We finally pull up at a large, fancy building. Through the windows, I can see people dining. I immediately notice that majority of them have scents

Mel's POVHe grabs my hand and leads me to the dance floor. The band begins playing "Best Part" by Daniel Caesar ft. H.E.R. I try to relax as he wraps his arm around my waist and pulls me close. I rest my arms loosely on his shoulders, laying my head against his taut chest as we sway back and forth.My body is screaming for me to push him away like I'm committing the biggest sin by letting him touch me, even if it's for an innocent dance.What is wrong with me? Here I am with this attractive guy, but all I can think about is him. As much as I know it will only lead to heartbreak, I can't fight this feeling anymore. I'm throwing in the white flag. He's won, he's torn down the walls to my guarded heart. Congratulations, universe! I guess I should get ready for it to be torn right out of my damn chest in a week. On my birthday, by the way. Fan-fucking-tastic!!!Silent tears roll down my face. I'm pressed so closely to Malcom, I'm glad he can't see them. That’ll be a strange thing to expla

Mel's POVJaxon takes the oddly shaped spoon and sticks it in his mouth. My thighs clench together as I watch his long, thick tongue wrap around it.He smirks when he notices me watching him, but he points to the cup in my hand with his spoon. "Eat your ice cream before it melts."Heat creeps up my cheeks as I gracefully place the spoon in my mouth. The cold dessert explodes on my tongue. "Wow, this is amazing!" I exclaim."I knew you would think so," he says, his smirk widening.I frown thoughtfully as I take another bite. "You know, I can't believe I've never left the territory before. I feel so...sheltered and inexperienced. It fucking sucks.""It's not your fault, your dad is a controlling asshole," he points out. Then, his face fills with unmistakable concern and torment. "When I heard your voice in my head earlier, I was so afraid I wouldn't get to you in time. You know...like the last time you were in danger," he trails off. His jaw tenses as if he's reliving the moment all over

Jaxon’s POVSearing pain on my wrist makes me shoot up in the bed. "Fuck," I hiss, scrambling to find the brass key on the dresser. Unlocking the bracelet, it clatters on the dresser loudly, stirring Melanie. Thankfully, she just turns over and continues snoring softly. She's so cute and peaceful when she's asleep, and it's magnified by a million when she's doing it in my bed.The skin of my wrist is bubbling, bleeding, and blackening where the silver was. It's excruciatingly painful, but over the years, I've grown used to this. There were times when Damon left cuffs around my wrists and ankles for two-three days at a time to the point where the skin melted all the way down to the bone. He would still force me to train no matter how much pain I was in.I can feel Shadow's fury, but he doesn't say anything.After taking a shower and cleaning the wound, I wrap gauze around my wrist. I know Melanie would freak if she saw it, but I'm sure it will heal by the end of the day.Jaxon, the Elde

Jaxon's POV"Where are we going?" Melanie asks impatiently.For the hundredth time, the only answer I give her is, "you'll see when we get there".I can feel her excitement growing the further we drive. This is what I have been looking forward to, what I've wanted for years. I'm so glad she agreed to go.The aquarium is about an hour away from our territory. I park in the back of the building so we can get the full VIP experience."Why is no one else here?" she asks, looking around the empty parking lot.I chuckle. “That's because it doesn't open for another three hours. I walk around to open her door and grab her hand as we walk towards the back exit. Tapping the glass door, there's a blur as Mitchell uses his enhanced speed to unlock it and let us in. "Alpha...Beta," he greets, baring his neck. "You got until about 10:30 before rowdy kids and sleep deprived parents start showing up."I nod. "Perfect."He gives us a small smile and disappears through the door labeled, "employee's only
