QUINN
When you’re in a new, exciting relationship, three days apart feels like an eternity. As the days pass slowly, I start to get nervous that something’s going to go wrong and Jax isn’t gonna show on Monday. Of course, the thought is irrational- Jax is the best guy, he has a heart of gold! There’s no way he’d stand me up. Still, I can’t help but agonize about all of the ‘what if’s’ while riding the high of something that feels too good to be true. Guess I’m my own worst enemy in that way.
You’d think the downtime at home would be relaxing, but really, I’m just bored. Theo has been spending a lot of time with Dad- he’s teaching Theo everything he knows so he can transition him into the role of Alpha this spring- and while Brooke spends her evenings here with us, she spends her days at her parents’ house a few streets over. So basically, it&rsquo

JAX The way she says my name nearly makes me shatter. Even though I felt certain Quinn was my mate, confirming it is far better than I ever could’ve imagined. It’s earth-shattering, life changing. It’s everything- all I’ve ever wanted, she’s all I’ll ever need. My Quinn. My girl. My mate. Despite the chill in the air, our bodies are warm, slick with sweat. I slip a hand between them to seek her clit and push her over the edge, and it only takes a few gentle rubs of her sweet spot to get her there. Her body trembles, her head falls back- I hold her tight in my arms and watch in awe as she rides out her climax, doing all I can to prolong reaching my own. She’s so fucking gorgeous in the throes of bliss that I can hardly take it. My control’s hanging by a thread, but now that I know for sure that Quinn’s my mate, I won’t leave this spot until I mark her as mine forever and seal the bond between us. Slowly, beautifully, sh

QUINN “Tonight?” I parrot, searching my dad’s face for answers. “But it’s late… what’s going on? Dad forces a smile, stepping closer and setting a hand on my shoulder, giving it a reassuring squeeze. “It’s not for you to worry about, honey.” His patronizing tone has resentment and frustration curling in my gut as he withdraws his touch and all but ignores my concern, turning instead to Jax and Theo. “You boys are coming too, Gray said squad leadership needs to be present. Cory took Ellie home, but he should be back any minute…” “Dad,” I interrupt, balling my fists at my sides and speaking through gritted teeth. “Please just tell me what’s happening.” He heaves a sigh in annoyance, casting me a sideways glance. I feel Jax step up behind me, his chest meeting my back as he slides his large hands to rest on my shoulders. “Respectfully, sir, it won’t do any good to keep her in the dark,” Jax says, h

JaxI blink my eyes open as a wave of pleasure courses through me, pulling me out of my half-asleep haze. The first thing I see is Quinn- her hazel eyes peering down at me from above, the mischievous glint in them telling me that I’m in for some of her delicious brand of trouble. Her long dark hair is swept to one side, cascading down like a curtain, the ends tickling my chest as she reaches out to press a finger to my lips.It takes me another second to comprehend why she’s got her finger to my lips, urging me to be quiet. As I start to come to, I realize that her other hand is tucked inside my boxers, wrapped around my dick. It’s getting harder by the second as she strokes it, and holy shit what a way to wake up. My girl’s on top of me, jacking me off, and I’m… wait a second, I’m in my childhood bedroom?!The pieces start to click into place. The council meeting last ni

QUINNI wish we could stay at the Westfield packhouse with Jax’s family and just forget the world for a while. Forget about the security squad and the shadow pack and Denver and just be together. But life doesn’t stop for anyone, and we’re already running late as we say our goodbyes to Jax’s parents and sisters, promising that we’ll be back for dinner on Sunday.I’ve always wanted a big family, and now I’ve got one. Jax’s family fits me like a glove- from the moment I met them, I know they were my kind of people. Guess it makes sense now, in hindsight. This is how fate designed it; the way that things were always supposed to be.Rather than heading straight back to the complex, we take a detour to Summervale to retrieve my stuff. It makes us even later, but I can’t return to the complex without my phone and computer, can I? Theo and Brooke have already left, but D

JAX“So you’re going to Denver to fight, huh?” I ask as I pull my t-shirt on overhead and tug it down my torso.We made it a whole three steps inside of Quinn’s door before we ripped each other’s clothes off. I set Quinn on the edge of the dresser and spread her thighs, bringing her to orgasm with my tongue before I fucked her senseless. Good thing these rooms have cinderblock walls, or I might’ve shoved the dresser right through it.Quinn slides her leggings up her long legs and turns to me, resting her hands on her hips. “If you’re going, I’m going.”There’s a determined glint in her eye, her wolf showing herself to me by way of shimmering copper swirls in Quinn’s irises.I can’t help but crack a smile. “Hey, I never said I was gonna stop you.”“Good, because you couldn’t stop me if you tried,”

QUINN “I’ll get it!” I call out in response to the knock on the front door of the packhouse. It may seem strange for me to be answering the door of the packhouse in Westfield, but this place already feels like a second home to me thanks to Jax’s family. That, and I already know who’s waiting on the other side of the door. I grin as I pull it open and am met with Brooke’s shining smile, Theo’s classic smirk, and Dad’s stiff, inscrutable expression. “Hey, you guys made it!” I chirp, waving them inside. It has been just shy of two weeks since the full moon confirmed Jax and me as mates, and his mom wasn’t kidding about wanting to have my family over for dinner soon. With the battle in Denver drawing closer, there’s no time like the present. The danger of the fight and the uncertainty of the outcome has been weighing on us all over the past couple weeks. “Nice place,” Brooke comments as she slides her black

JAX I lift my nose in the air, catching her scent again. It’s the faintest hint of strawberries and vanilla, carried on the breeze from somewhere to my right. I veer in that direction, paws pounding the forest floor as I take off running again. My adrenaline is pumping, my wolf frenzied with the thrill of the chase. I’m getting closer, I can feel it. It’s not only her scent that I’m following, but the pull of the bond. Over the past few weeks, I’ve learned how to reach out for it, to tug on the connection between us to get a sense of where she is or how she’s feeling. Since we sealed the bond, it has only continued to develop and grow stronger. The more it does, the more I feel like we’re becoming two halves of the same person. I must be getting closer, because I can feel her excitement through the bond- it’s palpable, and it only serves to rile my wolf up even more. I see a flash of silver fur ahead and I know that I’

QUINN“Earth to Quinn!” My friend Kyla’s voice slips into my daydream, startling me back to reality.“Huh?” I swivel my head around to face her, blinking, as she sets two frothy pint glasses of beer in front of me on the bar top of the brewery where we both work.“For table six.”“Right,” I nod, reaching for the glasses. I pick one up in each hand and start to spin around to head out from behind the bar. Before I can take a step, though, Kyla reaches out to grab my arm, halting me.“Hey, what’s with you today?” she asks, searching my eyes with her dark brown ones. “Having trouble sleeping again?”I shake my head quickly, my long brunette hair swishing in front of my face. “Nah,” I lie, blowing a loose strand out of my field of vision. Kyla’s giving me that stern look that says she does
