Chapter 17: Chapter 17

JAXON…..

My blood boiled seeing James and Jace so close to her. They were treating her like a loving mate. I don't complain about their care for her but I can't just bear to see her close to other males. It took everything in me to stop my wolf from snapping their heads off for touching our girl. So before he could do something to them I stood up from my chair and left the dining hall without a word.

Everyone kept looking at me but no one said anything. I was afraid of Father that he might get suspicious of my behavior. I can't let him know that I fall for Lauren. He can go to any extent to stop me from falling in love. Because he believes Love makes us weak. Women are great weaknesses of men. They can bring prosperity in life and destruction too.

But my way of thinking was totally opposite, because I believe love is not your weakness but your strength. Love can light up your dark world and bring color to your black and white life. Can bring joy to your life. I was waiting for the true love of my life but I'm so unlucky that when it's right in front of me I can't accept it.

"Jaxon." I heard a voice from behind when I turned around and I found Brianna standing at the doorstep.

"Is everything alright!" She held my arm and tried to read my mind through my eyes which was impossible for anyone yet she tried.

"Yeah." I brushed her off with a short reply. But I heard her chuckle.

"Oh, really! You can lie to yourself but not me. I have seen you stealing a glance at that girl. Do you think I'm blind. My eyes are always on you. It's better if you stay away from her if you don't want her dead. Don't forget she's carrying your child. You will lose your heir too. So don't be carried away by emotions and lose everything in the end."

Her every word was a bitter truth of my life that I can't deny. If she wouldn't have been right in her place then I might have strangled her but she was right.

I removed her and from my arm with a swift motion. "You don't have to remind me what I should do or not. I'm well aware of what I'm doing. It would be better if you mind your own business." I was looking outside of the window but I could feel her fuming in anger. She stomped her feet and left my room.

'I know she must have felt threatened because Lauren is carrying my child and I have feelings for her. She thinks what if I made Lauren my Luna.'

'By the way, the idea is not bad either.' My wolf purred happily.

"It's not possible." Saying that I shut him off.

It was night time when I came back from the office late at night. While going to my room I heard loud laughter coming from Lauren's room. Curiosity took over me and I pushed the door open to see three of them watching TV sitting in a dark room. James, Jace and Lauren were sitting together on the sofa clinging to each other while enjoying the movie.

Before I could stop myself, my wolf growl loudly making the room shake. The trio immediately stood up in shock, switching off the TV. They were looking at me with fear.

"What's happening here?" My angry and loud voice was enough to shake them to the core.

"I apologize, Alpha. I could not sleep so I called them to accompany me. They are not at fault. So please, don't scold them." Lauren took the initiative to save them from my wrath which made me more angry.

"Oh, so you're telling me to punish you alone." My lips curved up in a smirk as I spoke to her.

"Brother, please don't get mad. We were just watching a movie. And it's not that late anyway. It's only 12." I looked at Jace who stood up for Lauren. Wow! Now they are behaving like a protective mate.

"Leave."

"Bro….."

"I said leave." My dangerous voice shook with power making the room shake. They both leave the room immediately. As they knew if they mess with me the consequences wouldn't be good for them. They are aware of the wrath of my wolf.

As soon as they left I stared at Lauren who was standing in her place scared like hell. She was looking like a deer caught in a spotlight. As I took a step she took a step back before she could run away. I pinned her on the sofa. She was lying on the sofa and I was on top of her. I could see fear in her eyes and she looked beautiful in fear too. My eyes fell on her chest which was heaving up and down. Her full bosoms were making it difficult for me to take my eyes from them.

"What are you doing? This is wrong?" My emerald green eyes met with her chocolate brown eyes.

"What's wrong, little bird?" My eyes landed on her full and luscious lips which were calling to claim them. My male hormones took over me and I could not stop myself from pressing my lips on hers. Her eyes fluttered before closing them.

As I neared her lips she didn't stop me from taking what I wanted. And I saw her eyes already wide, eyes widened even more, trying to drown me into them. She clutched my shirt near my collar and surrendered under me. Her surrender made me explore more. So I deepened the kiss by entering my tongue into her mouth. I kissed her pouring all my emotions into it, anger, jealousy, desire, lust, passion and love.

I parted away from her almost five minutes later. As I stared at her she opened her eyes to stare back at me. "What was that?" I pulled away from her and straightened.

"Don't forget you have a mate. How will you explain to her when she finds my scent on you? She will blame me for seducing her mate. Or worse she might go to Mr. Knight to complain about me." She sat straight on the sofa and told me in a serious tone. So I walked over to her and leaned on her, placing my hand on the headboard of the sofa. Our faces were neared.

"You don't have to worry about that. You just remember to keep a decent distance from Jace and James. I don't like them closer to you. I feel like killing them." I told her in a whisper but my voice was dangerous.

"What if I go closer to them?" She threatened me by raising her left brow at me.

"You will be punished." I gritted my teeth and she smirked.

"Then I would love to be published." Saying that in her sexy tone she traced her forefinger from my jaw to my chin. My hormones were going crazy so before I lose my control and fuck her senselessly I dashed out from her room.
