The Contest by Cooper (Jaxon & Evangeline)

Chapter 51 (Evangeline)

A week before the second contest, my parents have a party for my birthday. I’ m so excited. I know that Jaxon is my mate, but now, I’ll finally, finally be able to tell my father, without a doubt that he is truly my mate.

This week, my father had Ezekiel and once again, we thought it would be an easy week, but Ezekiel raised the bar again. So, while I’ve been excited about my birthday, I knew that this week would be a tough one. Add to that, Jaxon decided that this week, of all weeks, he wanted to make a big entrance for my birthday.

I know that Jaxon hasn’t had a chance to get me something for my birthday. I’ ve heard him on the phone, secretly talking to people. If I had to guess, I’d say he and Jordan are coming up with some sort of birthday present for me, but so far, I have no clue what he’s getting me.

Last night, for the first time in nearly three months, I slept alone. Jaxon left to go get my birthday present, telling me that he’d be back for the party tonight. I had texted him in the middle of the night, not terribly surprised that he wasn’t asleep.

Me: Are you awake?

Jax: I am, why are you awake?

Me: Can’t sleep. I miss my mate.

Jax: Your mate is stupid. He didn’t think this through.

Me: My mate is not stupid. He’s amazing and I won’t have you disparaging him.

Jax: Really? Well, the man was dumb enough to leave you alone the night before your birthday.

Me: I’m sure he has a good reason.

Jax: I bet tomorrow night at this time, you’ll be wearing his mark.

Me: And he’ll be wearing mine.

Jax: Think of that, my beautiful
