The Contest by Cooper (Jaxon & Evangeline)

Chapter 54 (Jace)

I finish packing to go to the next contest. I’ll be away from the pack for the four days. I’ve been training hard and other than the times when Jordan was with Nolan, I feel like I’m getting stronger. I’m feeling pretty confident that I will be able to defeat my opponent this weekend and move to the next level in the competition.

I grit my teeth thinking of the times when the pain has ripped through me. I know that Jordan hasn’t gone all the way with Nolan as I know that would have seriously weakened me, but that hasn’t stopped her from at least k*issing him.

When I’m done, I head down to Jordan’ s office, knocking on the door. I wait until she calls for me to come in before opening the door.

“Hey, Alpha. I wanted to see if there is anything you need from me before I head out to the competition.”

She looks up at me and clasps her hands in front of her on the desk.

“Come in and have a seat, Jace,” she says.

I know there is nothing special about the request, but I can’t help the little flip in my heart at her request. I close the door and come to sit in front of her, dropping my bag beside me on the floor.

She looks at me a moment and I wait her out. “Jace, you need you to accept my rejection.”

I grit my teeth. Definitely nothing special about this conversation. “Listen to me, you entered this contest to win your own pack. I know that you can feel the times when I’m with Nolan. You’re allowing yourself to get weak when you need to be getting stronger.”

“It’s my choice and I refuse to accept your rejection.”
