Jaxson POV I had full confidence this trial would go our way but what I wasn’t sure about is what Jared will do after. I just had a feeling that something was going to happen. “Let’s begin,” Councilman Jeff announced without looking up from his paperwork. “Mr. Smith, you may start with your opening statement.” Mr. Smith stood up, straightened his jacket and stepped forward. “Thank you, Councilmen. We have brought you all here today to present the heinous acts of Alpha Jared. Acts that not only violate werewolf laws but basic human decency. Alpha Jared has not only stalked Ms. Scarlet, excuse me, Luna Scarlet but successfully kidnapped, tortured, bound and threated sexual abuse on. Alpha Jared has also shown to be unstable as an Alpha should be by sending his own people to their deaths, solely for his own personal gain. By the end of this trail, we are asking for Alpha Jared to be stripped of his title. Releasing him from the power to control, hurt and manipulate the good citizens

Jaxson POV The whole courtroom just stared at Scarlet. She said it like it was nothing. Like it was just another day, a walk in the park. Most of these people will and would not ever understand what it meant to be tortured, beaten or abused in anyway. But the ones who know… know. “Thank you, Luna Scarlet. I believe we heard enough.” “May we address the witness now?” Mr. Wilson stood up and started gathering his papers like knew something we didn’t. “I suggest you tread lightly.” Councilman Mitch warned. “Luna Scarlet, you admit you broke into Alpha Jared’s office?” Mr. Wilson asked. “Broke into'' is one way to put it. I would say we just sort of walked it. There was basically no security at the border so scaling was fun and then we practically just walked right in.” Scarlet was throwing it in his face how easy she did this. It made me so proud of her. “Are you aware that that is against the law?” Mr. Wilson pressed, ignoring her comments. “Actually, There is no law that state

Jaxson POV Scarlet pulled the book back and the whole thing protested as it moved. Opening up to reveal a dark and dingy tunnel. Holy fuck! I haven’t seen something like this in ages. There appeared to be lanterns lining the wall about five feet apart and it went on into nothingness. “Ready?” Scarlet was still royally pissed at me. I will need to make this up to her and figure things out. This is not how I want my future to go. “Yes doll.” I flirted as I gave her a half grin. She rolled her eyes at me and started walking into the tunnel. “Do you know how to turn these on?” flicking the lantern, and looking for a switch. “Um, no but let me see…” Scarlet trailed off as she went back to the office. I heard some papers being moved. My face was inches from the lantern trying to find a switch when suddenly, they turned on. “Got it!” Flinching hard, I rubbed my eyes as all I saw was a little ball of light in my vision. “I’m blinded.” I muttered as water spilled from my eyes. Mason w

Jaxson POV It has been a few days since we visited Maverick. He said he would look over things and get back to me. So far, I haven’t heard anything but I am trying to be patient as he does have a newborn. That will be me in a few months. Scarlet’s morning sickness is really taking a toll on her. Looking at my watch, I noticed it is still early but I have been working since 3am. Currently, it is 6:03am and Scarlet should still be sleeping for another two hours.. Hopefully. Sighing, I flipped over the last of the restaurant paperwork. Jessy was so happy to be officially running the store. I still technically own it but it is hers to do as she wishes. I put my heart and soul into it but with a baby coming, I know it needs someone who can be there 24/7. Signing the last part, I folded it and put it into a vanilla envelope for someone to take it to Jessy for me. This will solidify her future. I felt really good about this. Ring! Ring! Ring! My phone started buzzing on the desk by my co

Jaxson POV “JAXSON!” Scarlet yelled from across the office. “What? I am right here!” Looking up, she was looking rather irritated at me. “I have been talking to you for the last five minutes. Did you even hear what I said?” Yup, she was annoyed. “No, sorry. I was reading an email.” The email that I had just received was from the councilmen. Alpha Isaac died last night and it was reported that it was from natural causes. Bullshit! I know Jared had something to do with it. I was typing a response when she was talking to me. “Well pay attention! The flowers and everything will be here tonight and I will need help setting it up. Also, the tent is being set up right now by some guys and then I am going to go down there and decorate it. I think everything is ready to go for tomorrow.” She was clearly frazzled and the pregnancy hormones weren’t helping. “What do you need from me?” I asked, trying to sound like I do care. I really do care but I need to respond to this email and keep t
