Chapter 9

Clara was extra alert during training, observing all of Jaxon’s moves. She could not miss out on him leaving without her knowing. She was also careful enough to not draw the attention of the pack members and most especially, Charles. It was successful in the end with Charles getting busy by giving some new trainees extra lessons.

Jaxon left and Clara, not as much as informing her friends who she came to training with and usually left with, began to follow Jaxon. Initially with people around. Jaxon did not notice but getting close to the Omega communities where they were usually indoors sleeping after the stress of cleaning the pack and other homes, it became difficult to not notice.

Clara was initially surprised by the direction Jaxon was headed, not having realized that Rowena had left the pack. She was conflicted in thinking about who Jaxon was going to see but then, she realized that it was not what she thought. She continued to follow him without knowing where he was headed but it was too late for her to realize that he had tricked her into the woods.

Hearing his voice resonating through the woods in search of his prey, Clara’s heart was thumping very fast and she was looking for a way of escape but there was only one way in and one way out. Since she was already in, she could not leave without Jaxon seeing her.

Clara knew that her end had come and the best thing was to pretend that she was not there but his last words caused her to begin sweating profusely, more than she did during the training session with the other warrior trainers.

“For the last time, show yourself or I promise I’ll kill you if I rummage through these woods and drag you out, whoever you

are.”

Ah, Clara was looking for a way to escape. If Jaxon found her out, she could not guess how it was going to end since the man showed no interest in her but if he rummaged through the woods, it would not take time before he found her. She did not

want to die.

Suddenly, an idea cracked in her mind and she stepped out confidently out of the woods. “It’s me.”

Jaxon’s gaze turned murky perilously. He was expecting a man he could feast on to release all his bottled-up pain of not. having Rowena around but not the enemy herself. He wanted to tear her into pieces but she was also the reason why Charles did not fight for the title of an Alpha, for which reason Jaxon tolerated her.

Jaxon was not keen of the responsibility, after he had given it up for his mate before but he strongly felt that after what Rowena had been through, it would be refreshing for her to lead the pack one day. That would be the best revenge to her enemies. This was one of the thoughts which prevented Jaxon from obliging to Jax demanding to take control to finish off
