Jax's POV

I woke before dawn.

Kai was still asleep, curled against my chest. His breathing was soft and even. One of his hands was pressed flat against my heart like he was trying to feel it beat.

I didn't move. I just lay there, watching the grey light creep through the window, feeling the weight of him against me.

Last night had changed something. The conversation, the confession, the way he had looked at me when he said he trusted me. It had cracked something open inside me. Something I

  • Desperate Omega Seduces the Cold Enigma for his protection   Chapter 45: The Kidnapping Attempt

    Jax's POVWe made camp an hour before sunset.The council lands were far behind us. The forest around us was unfamiliar, a stretch of neutral territory between territories. We had pushed the horses hard all day, trying to put as much distance between us and the council chamber as possible.Kai was exhausted. I could see it in the way he moved, the way his shoulders slumped as he slid off his horse. He tried to hide it, but I knew him too well now."Rest," I said. "I'll set up camp."He nodded and sank onto a fallen log. His eyes were already half-closed.I worked quickly, building a small fire and laying out our bedrolls. The night air was cold, and I wanted to make sure we stayed warm.When I was done, I sat beside him and put my arm around him. He leaned into me, his head resting on my shoulder."We made it," he said quietly. "We actually made it.""We made it," I agreed.He was silent for a

    Kai's POVThey led us to an empty room.I sat on a cold stone bench, my hands trembling in my lap. Jax paced beside me, his jaw tight."One hour," I said. "How are they going to decide in one hour?""I don't know." He stopped and looked at me. "But whatever happens, I'm not letting them take you."I wanted to believe him. I did. But I could still see Knox's face in my mind. That smug, confident look. Like he already knew he had won."What if they rule against us?" I asked."Then we fight.""Fight? Jax, there are fourteen council members. And Knox. And Ronan. We can't fight all of them.""I don't care." He knelt in front of me and took my hands. "I don't care how many of them there are. I am not going to let them take you."I felt tears prick at my eyes. "I don't want you to get hurt because of me.""You are not the reason I would be hurt," he said. "They would be the reason. And I am n

  • Desperate Omega Seduces the Cold Enigma for his protection   Chapter 43: The Council Hearing

    Jax's POVThe council chamber was cold.I had expected that. The building was old stone, built centuries ago when the pack laws were first written. The walls were thick. The windows were narrow. Even with the fire burning in the massive hearth, the chill never quite left the air.I stood at the entrance with Kai beside me, my hand resting on the small of his back. He was trembling. I could feel it through his coat."Breathe," I murmured.He nodded, but his eyes were fixed on the room ahead.The chamber was arranged in a semicircle. Fourteen seats for the council members, arranged in rising tiers like a theater. Each seat was occupied by an alpha from a different territory. Each one was watching us with cold, calculating eyes.At the center, on the lowest tier, sat the head of the council. An ancient alpha named Thorne. His hair was white. His face was lined. But his eyes were sharp as knives."Alpha Jax Wilder," Thorne said. His voice was thin but carried through the room. "You have b

    Kai's POVI fell asleep in Jax's arms.It was the best sleep I had had in years. No nightmares. No fear. Just warmth and safety and the steady beat of his heart.When I woke, the grey light of dawn was filtering through the windows.Jax was still beside me, his arm wrapped around my waist. He was watching me with those dark, piercing eyes."Morning," I said, my voice rough with sleep."Morning." He smiled. "Sleep okay?""Better than okay." I stretched against him. "I don't think I've slept that well since... I don't know. Maybe never."He kissed my forehead. "Good. You needed it."I sat up and looked around the room. Everything was the same as last night. The fire was dead. The room was cold. But it felt different somehow. Charged.Today was the day.I felt the fear rise again, but I pushed it down. I wouldn't let it control me. Not today."What time do we leave?" I asked."After breakfast." He got up and started dressing. "We have a long ride ahead of us."I watched him move around t

    Kai's POVThe fire crackled softly.I was curled against Jax's side, his arm wrapped around me, his warmth seeping into my bones. The night was cold outside, but in here, with him, I felt nothing but heat.Tomorrow, we would leave for the council hearing.Tomorrow, everything would change.I tried not to think about it. I tried to stay in this moment, in the quiet peace of the fire and his arms. But my mind kept drifting, kept circling back to the same terrifying questions.What if we lost? What if they took me away? What if this was our last night together?Jax must have felt me tense. His hand came up to stroke my hair."What are you thinking about?" he asked quietly.I was quiet for a moment. Then I said, "Tomorrow."He didn't answer. He just held me tighter."Tell me what you're afraid of," he said. "Tell me everything."I took a shaky breath. "I'm afraid of losing you. I'm afraid they'll take me back to Knox. I'm afraid that after everything we've been through, it won't matter. T
