Jake Maddox Books Novels & Stories

"What's your name?" "Jake. Jake Morrison." He watched in amazement as his wounds began to close under her touch. "Are you... are you a healer?" "Something like that." Miranda had never had to explain her abilities to a stranger before. "What happened to you?" "Pack challenge gone wrong. I was just trying to get home, but I got lost in these woods and..." Jake's eyes suddenly sharpened, focusing on her face with new intensity. "Wait. You're not part of any pack I know. What territory is this?"

“I’ll always stay with you, bambino. Now, go to sleep and once you’re out I’ll disconnect.” “I love you.” I sigh gently, tired, and already fading out quickly. “I love you so much more. Sleep.” Jake props up his laptop too so both his hands come into view behind his head as he gets comfy. I snuggle into the cushion and close my eyes. “Talk to me until I sleep.” I yawn again, hearing a small noise that sounds like he’s laughing under his breath. “Could you be any more adorable, baby? … I’ll read to you if you like? I have a Stephen King book with me.” He sounds happy amused; I could listen to that voice forever.

PACKING HIS school stuff, Jake's eyes landed on the big black book still lying on top of his desk even after wishing that it had been all a dream when he got up from bed that Monday. He did have a dream but not one about witnessing some guy’s head pop open like the pumpkins at the Pumpkin Park after being run over by a truck. Nope. That also happened. He saw it on the news the previous night while his mother let out a long speech about how dangerous that part of town is and another flow of words of how she was glad that Jake was okay.

That is all. ‘Mate! Mate!’ Mina is screaming in my mind. “Look how handsome he is!’ She isn’t wrong to be fair. He is tall, muscular. With a headful of dark hair, short at the sides, but flopping into his face. His eyes are a piercing grey. And such a strong jaw, defined further by the stubble dotted along it. “Jake this Rose Cartwright” the woman next to him smiles “Rose, this is our Beta and business partner, Jake Joseph. I am Lilah Winters. My husband Knox is back at the pack at the moment, but is able to come along if you should need him to attend”

“Nothing. A total rarity. Usually I try to visit Maddy on Sunday, but she’s still in Switzerland, and having a lot of fun. She says she’s been totally untouched by the scandal there.” “That’s great, Jake .” She could see the relief on his face and it made her feel the same feeling, swelling inside of her. She knew how much he loved Maya, knew even more now. She felt as though she could feel his emotions sometimes, as though her own matched his. Jake was enjoying Kalia’s newfound boldness in bed. Even now she was sitting up with her breasts bare, acting as though she hardly noticed. He noticed. She was truly the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen naked. And he had seen his share.

I'm not the one in the wrong room here. “I don’t bite. Come on in,” Maddox said smoothly, his grey eyes tracking my posture as if he could read the exact panic running through my thoughts. He looked down at the surface of the table, running a thumb over the cover of a book. “You actually read romance novels like this?” I could hear the dripping sarcasm cutting through his voice. “It’s... It’s Tina’s,” I stuttered out, swallowing hard against the lump in my throat. Who even does that? Who just walks into someone else's private bedroom while they aren't around and casually starts running their hands over their personal belongings?

Jake quickly took two steps toward her with his hand stretched out but then stopped as he turned to look at me with a panicked expression on his face, he quickly closed the gap between us as he again pushed his lips against mine with a needy hunger before slowly pulling away, “Laya, I’m sorry but I have to go,” he said before turning away from me as he started running after Maddy. I was still left on the ground staring after where he had just been, I felt a wave of shock wash over me as I realized how dire this situation could turn if Maddy ended up telling chief Rann about what she had seen, what that would mean for Jake and… me. ***

Alpha Jake's pov "Jamie Jackson, you are here today to receive your punishment for the attempted murder of Emma Jessica Johnson, daughter of Alpha Jake and Luna Sophia Johnson do you have any last words?" "I wish I had sliced her to pieces while I had the chance!" he starts to laugh and it takes everything I have to hold myself back, the entire pack breaks out in growls and snarls at his words and I know every single person here wants to tear him apart for what he has done to Emma, to my daughter!

Moving to hover over her, wondering what it was she was sketching, he craned his neck to look at the book she seemed to be sketching on, and then his mouth literally went agape. "Can I umm, see?" he asked her wanting to take a closer look. She stopped sketching, turning her head to look at him, and then she nodded, reaching for the book and passing it to him. "Wow! These designs…" he was lost at words to say as he flipped over the pages of the book. "Did you draw all of these?" Jake raised his head to look at Maddie as he asked this question. Maddie nodded, a light smile playing on her face.

His eyes widened with recognition, then something that looked like either excitement or dread. "Emma Chen," he repeated slowly. "As in E.C. Hart? The Emma Chen who wrote *Midnight Surrender* and *Dangerous Devotion*?" She nodded, watching his expression shift through several emotions she couldn't identify. "Well," Jake said finally, a strange smile playing at his lips. "This is going to be interesting." Emma turned and fled the coffee shop, her heart hammering against her ribs. Through the window, she could see Jake still sitting at the table, staring after her with an expression she couldn't read.
