His Bleeding Scars

{Jax's POV} {Flashback} I ran through the back door into the backyard with Pat on my tail. Pat had just turned 4 just over a week ago. Giggles had erupted from both of us as we ran towards the pool. I scrambled to the edge and leapt in, making a big splash which soaked Pat who let out a squeal before jumping in after me. Suddenly I felt uneasy, like somebody was watching me. I held up my hand to Pat and put a finger to my lips. Since we were so young we weren't able to mindlink yet, you could start mindlinking after you got your wolf. Kids generally began getting their wolves around 12. I looked around nervously while treadin

I was pacing in Lisa's office, feeling aggravated just thinking about everything that had happened today. I had successfully gotten a meeting set up with her, that was one of the good things about my status' privilege. I had just finished telling her about the things that had happened first. She poked and prodded in order to get me to try to grasp the ways I was feeling in a way I could try to understand those feelings. “I'm kind of scared. This thing about her scent, about me being drawn to her... Did the Goddess make her my mate just to spite me?” Lisa leaned back in thought. “Well, consider this. Rose truly has not done anything wrong to you. Maybe, if she is your mate, the Goddess is trying to help

{Jax's POV} All things considered, I actually hadn't given much thought to my potential mate before this school year. I had so much going on between therapy, education, training, and helping out at home, my future mate was the last thing on my mind. I knew it was popular to fantasize about your potential mate, do think about all the coming sensations and the unimaginable connection with another person. And since my future mate would be Luna, there would also be the hope of a strong, kind, loyal, and trustworthy partner. But I never had the time nor energy to think about these things, and I wasn't sure if I was ever going to care. That is, until I encountered Rose this school year. Suddenly e

I basically coasted through my next class deep in thought and when I got to my next class I sat down next to Lily, still feeling kind of distant. She leaned over and whispered in my ear. “Nothing happened last class.” I knew what she was referring to. Jax was in her last class. Even without the weirdness it was normal for us to share what happens regarding him because he was such a bully toward me. But now, now it felt even more important. We were pretty quiet after class, and we ended up going our separate ways pretty quietly because I was still frustrated with Cass, feeling frustrated with myself, and I felt weird around Lily for some reason. My next class went by in a complete blur as well, and as I

{Rose's POV}I fell back as I crashed into Jax, shock coursing through my entire system as I dropped the bag of pretzels. In a flash of movement he caught the bag midair, and held it out to me as I looked up at him completely stunned.He seemed frozen in shock. How could he just be directly behind her, facing her, like that? Why was he so close to begin with? And now he's standing there like a crazy person holding the bag of pretzels out to me like I hadn't just full on crashed into him.Years and years of him tormenting me, being needlessly aggressive towards me for far less, being harsh and rude and mean to me, and in the past two days, he went from slamming me into my locker simply for existing, to ap
