เข้าสู่ระบบDarius POV It’s been a week. A fucking week since I lost my Sable. I know she wasn’t actually mine, but I had hopes to take her on as a chosen mate. She was right though, it was a suicide mission and, in my rage, I didn’t think things through. Then that fucker Jaxon stabbed my mate with a silver knife. I should have listened to her. I shouldn’t have told her to come. I should have done so many things differently. No one is ever going to match her beauty, wit, intelligence, laugh, scowls, and every other characteristic I have observed and admired since she walked into my life as a warrior. Now she is gone and it’s as much my fault as it is Jaxon’s. I will avenge her though. I will avenge my Sable. Just then, my phone rings, and the ID is none other than Jaxon. Fury rises in me and I answer the phone. “You fucking bastard! You killed my mate!” I snarl at him through the phone, “I will avenge her death, make no mistake, I’m coming for you Jaxon.” There is silence on the other end.
Jaxon POV I’m sitting at my desk looking at her. She really is beautiful. Her eyes especially. They look like honey when the light touches them at the right angle. When I kissed her in the woods, I saw her eyes up close. She looked shocked, but that honey color was there and green is there but more of a secondary color to the honey. It gives her an exotic look and it’s captivating. Her eyes light up when I mention calling Crane and Darius. I’m rewarded with a soft smile. I’m not sure what it is, but some of the tightness in my chest dissolves when I see that smile. Again, she is making me feel foreign things in my chest that I can’t describe. She sits innocently on the other side of my desk while I call Crane first. I will explain the situation to him and then ask to three-way call, so we can have some diplomacy when we call Alpha Darius. As the phone rings, I take note that Sable is sitting nervously, fidgeting with her hands. This woman just killed rogues in the woods and now she
Sable POV That was my very first kiss. My brain stopped functioning , when he kissed me. I don’t have any reference point to compare it too, but I can’t imagine that it gets any better than Jaxon’s kiss. I’m still reeling that he kissed me. It was unprompted and it was in a romantic setting in the forest. I’m not a girlie girl, but I felt like I could have melted in his arms. We walk back hand in hand and I am trying not to show how giddy I am that he is actually acting like a mate. “You were in impressive back there.” He says to me. My cheeks redden. Goddess, get a grip Sable. “Thanks.” I say and I sound shy. “Just out of curiosity, why did you want to become a warrior?” He asked me. “I’ve always been quick and strong. It seemed like the most fitting path for me.” “Were your parents fighters?” “No. My mother was a teacher and my father worked as a mechanic. He used to fix the farm equipment at Dark Flame.” “I see. Do you mind me asking what happened to them?” “My mom p
Jaxon POV The last rogue is still alive but withering in pain. Sable pulls shift and I sucked in a breath. Holy Moon Goddess. She is perfect. Every part of her body is sculpted to perfection. Before I can get carried away with my thoughts, she moves past me and lifts the rouge up and slams him against a tree. Okay, I’m starting to see why she is a lead warrior. “Why did you want me, specifically? Who sent you?” The rogue starts laughing, “You’re special, Sable. Someone is very interested in adding you to their collection.” I snarl at hearing this asshole. “I will make your death painful, unless you give me a name.” Sable says, looking at the rogue with an eerie calm. “Do your worst, bitch.” He laughs again. She stays there staring at him and then he starts to choke and gasp for air. I look at Sable and she isn’t breaking eye contact with this guy. “A name.” she says once again. He’s shaking his head, “I…I…I don..don…know!” “Then you are of no use to me.” Sable says.
Jaxon POV I’m knee deep in training the warriors at the training facility. There is always room for improvement. I am currently sparring with Matt. We have been focused on the whole human trafficking going on at Dark Flame. As we are sparring, I ask him, “Have you found anything new about where the kidnapped women and men are going?” He blocks my attack, “Not yet. The logs look clean. I think they may be getting inside help from somewhere. It’s too well hidden, Alpha.” “Let’s keep looking. There must be something we are missing.” “Do you think Sable might know anything?” At hearing her name, I suddenly remember she has been in the hospital for two days and I forgot to visit her…again. FUCK. She is going have my balls in a vice. “Shit, I need to go.” I say, grabbing my shirt. “Alpha, what’s wrong?” “I left Sable in the hospital two days ago. I haven’t gone to see her. I’ve been too wrapped up with the human trafficking, I forgot.” “You forgot your mate again? Seriousl
Sable POV It’s been a couple of days. I have been at the hospital. This time though, the nurses are friendly and the doctor comes to see me. They even make sure I have meals. However, Jaxon has yet to come see me. I’m not leaving for a couple of reasons. First, I want to see if he keeps his word about calling Crane and Darius so I can get my stuff. Second, I was thinking a lot about leaving Dark Flame. Is Jaxon going to ask me to accept him as my Alpha and does he have intentions of marking me? So far, any progress I thought we were making seems to have evaporated. I’ve had nothing but radio silence from everyone outside of the pack hospital. I’m bored out of my mind. I’m not a stranger to being alone, but at least, I always have things to do. Here in the hospital, I have no one to talk to and no one has offered a book or magazine to read. I just lay here. I’m getting anxious already. My thoughts are starting to get away from me and with me being here and Jaxon, Goddess knows where,
