Chapter 11

Ella I take out my bottle of suppressant from where I usually hide it to take a pill, but I noticed for the first time how much weight it has lost and I become shocked. I pour them all on my table and count. I have exactly nine days left before it's done and when it is, my wolf will definitely become unmanageable. Now, I have to get new supplies, but how do I? I try to find places I can get them from, replacement options, but there's a problem. Every place I can think of between campus classes, every route is either traceable, dangerous, or pack-gated. I can't let this go out, especially not now that I'm tangled with Jax and his daughter. I switch to the next best method, the DIY I find online. It should be effective for me as I began to research through it. I check the rating and it’s rated as just partially effective by the most optimistic person. To even find that rating, I had to read through a lot of hate. And this rating is as old as eight months. My heart beat faster as

Chapter 12

Jax It's Thursday night and before I go to bed, I get a text message. When I check my phone, it's from Vanessa. “Remember, I'll be coming home tomorrow for dinner.” She reminds me. “Oh my.” I say out loud. I totally forgot she was coming. There was a time I usually lived in expectation of her coming. I never forget it and I always prepare grandly for it. For the first time however, it doesn't move me. I forget it and when she reminds me, it feels like work. Something is definitely happening, something I am still not ready to understand. I type a simple “okay” and send it to her and she reacts with a love emoji. I toss my phone to the side immediately and I lie down. My mind is thinking about everything but nothing as I plan my way towards the morrow. Vanessa must not find out about Ella! *****Knock knock!I bang Ella's door in the morning, so hard, no matter how deep she is asleep, she hears and opens. “Good morning.” She greets me immediately. “Am I in trouble?” She asks me.

Chapter 13

EllaI sigh, sinking into my seat. “Let's talk about this properly. She's just a nanny for my daughter.” I try to explain. “I know who a nanny is and I know what a nanny arrangement looks like. This isn't it.” She fires at me. “Trust me, you're just misreading things. I promise.” “I’m reading it exactly right.” She throws everything to the floor, picks her bag and leaves without saying a word, not finishing her food. I sit there, unable to move. I think about ways to make my point the right one and convince myself she is overreacting. “Is she gone?” I raise my head and see Ella before me. “I thought you said she was going to stay for the night?” She asked again. “She's not.” I answer blandly. “Did anything happen?” She asks, then looks down and sees her properties on the floor. “Oh.” She realises I messed it all up and the plan didn't work. “I'll clear the table.” She says to me as she comes to me and begins to pack up the plates. “And you still owe me 2000 dollars.” She u

JaxI know what happened yesterday to Ella was from Venessa, but to what degree, I have no idea. Well, until Monday morning, when I meet Marcus. “Jax, I don't like what your nanny did to my girlfriend.” He tells me. I'm confused and I turn to him. “My nanny, your girlfriend?” “Yes. She told me after the dinner incident with Venessa, which you've been too embarrassed to admit it blew up in your face, she went to confront Ella, peacefully and Ella fought them.” He tells me. “Ella, fight?” I ask him. That doesn't seem like Ella at all. “Well, I don't know what Ella seems like, but my girl definitely won't lie to me.” He defends. This takes me aback for a while. He has all the right in the world to protect his girlfriend, but what will I gain from protecting a Nanny, especially when that nanny is Ella. “You know what?” I tell him. “I'll talk to Ella about it.” “Don't just talk to her, caution her as well. My girl was pretty beat up.” He adds. “Alright, I will.” Marcus is my

Chapter 15

Jax Four days later and I haven't shared even a gaze with Ella. This is me hiding from her like my life depends on it. I however don't make it obvious. It's professional and efficient. Even though we're in the same house, I make sure nothing makes our paths cross, at least for four days in a row. What helps me more than anything else is ice hockey. Back to back practice is the saving grace, a film session I starred in, a charity interview with the campus sports channel where I say the right things in the right order with no one knowing what’s underneath them. “Jax.” My coach calls me after one practice, setting me aside from the rest of the team to talk to me. It's a Thursday, the day I actually played commendably. I wonder why he sees flaws. “What's bothering you, Jax?” He asks me. I pause, rather a stammer. “You know what, that's not supposed to be my problem, but it's really affecting your gameplay, whatever it is.” He says to me. “You score goals in regular games, but los

EllaHis body feels even better when touched than when looked at with the eyes. I still remember the feeling, his hands on me, his fingers on my pussy and the way he squeezed my boobs. His hands, manly, yet so tender. This sweet feeling wakes me up every morning, a mixture of lust and irritation. I can't believe such a jerk put his hands on me. And I can't believe I want more. I try to shove it under the wraps, but now that my wolf is being slowly activated, she even feels more excited about it than me when I think about it. I've made a promise to myself however, to never talk about it with him. I've made it over fourteen times, especially when he shut it down after I brought it up. Training is very intense and integrates into the structure of my day. Jax's voice rings in my head. “Come on, you can do this.” All the time. He probably takes me as one of his ice hockey bros now. He wakes me up very early at dawn, when the morning is still dark. It's mostly the two of us on that

Chapter 17

JaxIt's game time! Our third playoff is a big deal. We, the Regalis Academy ice hockey team are the best in the country, in fact, the biggest deals and I am the face of it all. The reason I always have to be at my best. I have been in the spotlight so long and I have loved it so much, I don't know what I would do if it was taken away from me. One of the reasons I finally make peace with myself and try to be more focused. “Go Jax!” I hear from the audience and when I turn, it's Venessa. She came late today. I even started to think she might not make it because she is still angry with me from that night. She hasn't spoken to me since then and I haven't cared less before. Now, she is here, screaming my name at the top of her voice. I know it is the usual ritual and missing it would start to give off a notion that we are not on good terms. She always wants us to be seen as perfect. I look at her for a while, then smile and blow a kiss. Not that I mean it, nor that anything she's

Chapter 18

Ella The rays from the morning sun, through the window, find its way into my eyes, triggering my pupils and causing me to wake up with a dazzle. As I try to block the rays from entering my eyes, the blanket over me falls to the ground and I pick it up immediately. Initially, I'm confused. “I didn't cover myself with anything.” Could it be Mrs Chen or Sophie? I wonder. The blanket is however Jax's own, from his closet, which means it would only be he's. When I look at my book, I see a note on my thesis draft. It reads “Page twelve of your argument on Brontë needs a stronger counter-source. Check Gezari, 2009.”I stare at this for a while, dig through the net to find the recommendation and when I go through it, it is nothing more than what I really needed at the moment. Indeed, someone is actually very interested in my work! It is definitely Jax and yes, he is right! As usual, Jax had left for school earlier than anyone could wake. The rhythm of my work now flows naturally, from ta

Chapter 19

Jax“Hey, Jax, are you finally ready to resume training?” Marcus tells me when I answer the phone.Inevitably, the two days I keep aside to spend with my daughter have come to an end, and I have to resume my regular duties. Although I will be going back to work, training, and school, I will try to be a more available father. Ella has been able to make me see how telling it is that I am not in my daughter’s life as I should be, and that night, it breaks me so hard I do not want it repeating again.“Yes, I’ll be there tomorrow,” I say to him.“Come early, okay? Like an hour early. I’ve got something I want to show you,” he tells me.“What is that?” I quickly ask, curious as to what it is that is so private he wants to tell me when no one is around.“It’s not something we should discuss on the phone,” he replies. “Just make it to the locker room on time tomorrow.”I take it lightly. First of all, it’s Marcus. He’s a jerk and never really has anything serious to say. Second, it might be a

Chapter 20

Ella Knock knock! The heavy knocks wake me up from my deep sleep and when I check my time, it's barely 5 am. I open the door to find Jax there. He has a funny looking suit I've never really seen him wear before. “Let's go.” He says to me. I'm confused, we didn't have any plans for the night. I remind him. “We begin your training.” He tells me. “Begin?” I ask. “I thought you said we were coming to an end?” “Yes.” He replies. “The end of the first phase.” He adds. I am shocked. I really thought I was finally done with this thing and would have full time for my regular duties once again. As frustrating as it is, I know I need it because I still feel the uncertainty in my body. I can recognise warning signs and manage them, almost perfectly now, but what I can't manage is when they come at heightened emotions. Especially when I'm around him. When he comes very close to me. “Give me a minute!” I say to him as I shut my door against him quickly and freshen up before coming out for
