Chapter 8: Best laid plans
Jaxon
Seeing Mal walk towards me in her beautiful wedding dress is something I never imagined possible after everything that happened two years ago. To know now that she is my wife is the ultimate rush. For two years, I have loved this woman. And even though we were together for a mere three months, I knew she was meant to be mine. It was an instant connection that grew stronger the longer we were together. As an assassin, I always knew my life would be cut short somehow. I never thought that a normal life would be in the cards for me. Yet, when I met Maleah, all of my doubts were put to rest. I had an epiphany the day we met. I saw what my life with someone I loved could be like, and I loved how it felt. I love how she makes me feel.
It pains me to have to leave her so soon after marrying her. But I made

Maleah Jaxon’s arms feel so good. I never want to let him go, but I have to. I savor the warmth of his chest against my cheek and his soft lips against my forehead as we both stand in the middle of Miami Airport’s terminal entrance. Heathen and Phantom went to a nearby store to give us some privacy as we said goodbye. Scotty and Val hugged me goodbye this morning before they headed out to take care of business. Jaxon and I spent the night making love and holding each other. Unfortunately, the night went too quickly. “I’m scared of letting you go again. I’m going to miss you so much.” I whisper as I desperately

Jaxon My body heats with rage as I make my way through Miami’s airport terminal. Val’s words ring in my ears with an ominous warning. Unfortunately, the past three weeks were not fruitful. We were unsuccessful in finding any trace of Carlos’ daughter. I have to give it to Carlos though, he’s determined to find her, and I can’t fault him. If it had been my daughter, I’d do the same. Thankfully, he understood that I had to go home to my wife. He was actually surprisingly pleasant considering the circumstances, so I left him with a few of my men and offered him accommodations until he found her. Colin stayed with him too. The former detective has become quite an asset in this mission. As a new Confradia recruit brought in by Micah “Savage” St. Clair, he has been invaluable.

Maleah I’m making breakfast for my husband. Calling Jaxon my husband makes me giddy with excitement after being without him for so long. Jaxon is still in bed resting after several bouts of hot sex. I wore him out. Hey, don’t judge; it’s been three weeks. After slipping into his t-shirt, I called my manager and told her I wasn’t coming into the shop until later in the afternoon. I want to spend the next couple of hours with Jaxon. Flipping the pancakes in the pan, I turn on the coffee maker and take out some cream. I’m making Jaxon lemon pancakes. When we were in Vegas, he’d always order lemon pancakes for breakfast. I thought it was cute. The coffee machine beeps, warning me that the coffee is

Jaxon Kissing my way up my wife’s flat stomach, I lick her nipple and nip her neck. Maleah’s heaving chest glistens with sweat as she rests back on the bathroom counter, exhales deeply, and wraps an arm around my neck as she gazes into my eyes. She looks soft and sweet in her post-orgasm euphoria. Her hair sticks to her shoulders becomingly, and her lips are swollen from my kisses. Pulling out of her hot center, I zip up my slacks and kiss her one last time. She licks her lips and breathlessly whispers. “Oh, baby, you’re so talented.” I nod my head and smirk at her contented smile. “I live to serve my beautiful lady.” Stepping back, I watch as Maleah slides to her feet and slips on a loos

Maleah Declan and Santana’s engagement party was great. The men were very welcoming, and the women were excited by my news. To Jaxon and my surprise, the couples all celebrated our marriage with drinks and gifts. I was glad to see that Jaxon and I fit in. I won’t pretend that I wasn’t worried about the men's relationship with Jaxon, but everyone seemed to accept it. Before Jaxon and I headed back home, Priest pulled me to the side and told me he was happy for me. My throat tightened when he said that Hunter would be glad I found someone. I don’t know how long I stood in his arms. Priest being the sweetheart he is, held me in his arms without protest. Jaxon eventually took pity on him and extricated me from

Jaxon I hate leaving Maleah looking so sad, but there’s nothing I can do. This is who I am, and she will have to become accustomed to it. I’d love to tell her I’ll retire from the Confradia as I planned before. Unfortunately, I can’t. Logan and I are the only ones we trust to help maintain order between our people since there are too many doubts mounting within our ranks. Logan and I have noticed a lax in control between our leaders and have become distrustful of their motives. I guess a lot of it has to do with how the board handled the Kazik situation. There were too many questions and suspicions. The heads of the Confradia gave in too quickly to his demands, which created an irreparable rift between our Assassins and the authority. Logan and I were the only ones who sided with our men. Thankfully, we were able to preserve our professional working relationship

Maleah I am so stupid. How could I have let myself be caught off guard? If it hadn’t been for Jaxon, I’d be dead by now. Ace cuddles close to my chest and whines. Jaxon has been quiet since we left the club. I think he’s mad at me, and I don’t blame him. I should have been more careful. I hate to say it, but I’m glad that Victor is dead. He was like a dark cloud hanging over us, and now we don’t have to worry about him anymore. “Are you mad at me?” I ask Jaxon the moment we walk in the door. Jaxon takes Ace from my arms and sets him down on the floor before he lifts me into a fireman’s hold and carries me up the stairs. “Jaxon!” I cry out, surprised and outraged at the same time. Ace runs behind us with a happy yip

Epilogue Jaxon Leaning back in my office chair, I look up at the ceiling and smile contentedly. Maleah walks in a moment later and sits down on my lap. “Hey baby, was everything okay with Logan?” Placing my arms around her waist, I kiss her satiny shoulder and reply. “Yeah, he’s fine.” Maleah quirks a questioning brow. “Is something wrong?” I shake my head. “No, everything is fine. Are you packed?” Maleah nods. “Yeah, I’m ready to go. Sage passed by earlier and took Ace, so I’m ready for some fun in the sun.” She wiggles her eyebrows suggestively and leans close to my ear, and whispers. “I even packed my tiniest bikini.&rdq
