Mel's POVAs we begin eating, Elinda clears her throat. “Another meeting with Alpha Damon?” she asks quietly.“Yep.” He doesn’t say anything else, and she doesn’t pry any further. The tension in the room is palpable, and I regret like hell I didn’t bolt before he got here. Why won’t he look at me? And why does it make my chest ache?I glance at him, trying to read his mood. His eyes seem distant, like he’s miles away trapped in his own head, and that doesn’t sit right with me. I want to know what his meetings with my dad are really about, and if he won’t talk to his mom, he should be able to talk to me.Moon tries to lighten the mood with stories about her adventures on the playground, her cute laughter breaking through the heavy atmosphere. Elinda smiles at her, and even Jaxon manages a small grin. But when his gaze drifts toward me, it’s like a wall goes up again. He looks away, pretending to focus on the food he’s barely touched.What the fuck is his problem? I know I’ve been avoidi

Jaxon’s POVToday is my Alpha ceremony. Omegas from the packhouse arrive early to move my things into the Alpha’s floor. Mom had a choice to move with me, but she wanted to stay in the home my father built for us. At least Ameer will be living here with me, so I won’t be all alone. As for Melanie, who knows how things will turn out. What if she decides at the last minute, she doesn’t want to be my Beta? Wait…she doesn’t have a choice. Alpha Damon will kill her if I don’t intervene.After my morning run with Ameer, Alpha Damon summons me to the packhouse. He sits at his desk, sipping coffee. “So, Jaxon, how is our plan going?” he asks, his voice calm but with an edge that raises the hairs on the back of my neck.I take a deep breath before answering. “Alpha, I don’t have enough evidence to exile her yet. I need time.”In a flash, he crosses the room, pinning me against the door with his forearm at my throat. His eyes are red, his wolf dangerously close to the surface. “I chose you for a

Mel’s POVAfter picking up Moon from Elinda’s house for the last time, I head to the packhouse. Every member of the Nightshade Shadows pack gathers near the river behind the house for the ceremony. I was hoping to see Jaxon at his mom’s, but he had already left. Maybe he’s just getting ready for the ceremony, but a part of me wonders if he’s avoiding me after what happened earlier.I’m still in disbelief about my little strip tease in front of the window. I wasn’t planning on doing that, but when Nina and I picked up Jaxon’s scent and caught him practically stalking me from the woods, I just couldn't help myself. I wanted him to see what he could never touch again, that the “favor” was a one-time thing. No more playing games.Instead of meeting Malcolm at the house, Pat gave me his number, so I texted him to meet me here at the ceremony. But I have something to do first. I sneak through the backdoor of the packhouse and find Mom in the room that used as a nursery for Moon and me. She’s

Jaxon’s POVI slip off my clothes and step into the warm water, the sediment at the bottom of the lake squishing between my toes. The sun is beginning to set, but the summer air is still very warm, matching the temperature of the lake.Nervousness creeps in as I stand before the entire pack. Everyone is seated in rows, dressed in white outfits that will be shredded when they all shift for our first run with me being Alpha.My heart pounds in my ears and sweat dampens the back of my neck. I scan through the crowd of faces I’ve known my entire life until I find those alluring violet eyes staring back at me. Melanie gives me a small smile, and it seems to make everything okay. I swear, I want to drown in those eyes. Hell, I’ll volunteer to drown between her legs if she’d let me.Alpha Damon clears his voice loudly to gain everyone’s attention as he stands beside me. This is rather intimate—us standing in the water naked together. I’d prefer literally anyone else."Greetings!” he booms. “T

Jaxon's POVAs we near the clearing, Alpha Damon suddenly shifts back into his human form, letting out a loud, guttural roar. He hunches over on the ground, clutching his stomach. His eyes are wide as they glaze over, trying to contact his mate. “Sienna? Sienna!” he shouts before collapsing.I can still hear the blood pumping into his heart, so he’s not dead. He most likely just passed out from the pain of losing her. Being an Alpha has saved him from death. The lucky son of a bitch.On cue, Melanie shifts and crouches beside her father, trying to shake him awake. She begins to sob hysterically. “Oh my Goddess, someone help! Something’s wrong with my father!” she screams.Our female is in pain! Shadow howls. He wants us to comfort her, but thankfully I’m in control. I don’t know why he’s reacting like this; he knows this is all an act. I shift and block the view of her naked body with my own. “Get the doctor now!” I roar. Several wolves scurry in the direction of the pack hospital, w
