The Jilted Alpha (Jaxon and Sable) novel Chapter 43

Sable POV

I clutch the journal to my chest. “My parents left me three journals. This is the first one.” I said.

“Oh, that’s nice. It’s full of their memories?” He asked.

“Um, I’m not sure. I’ve never read them. I respected the spirit of the when I was supposed to start reading them.” I answered.

“What does that mean? Is it time to read them now?” He asked, taking a seat in front of my desk.

“Yes. These journals were left by my parents to help me for the first three years after meeting my mate. Three books for the first three years.” I said and lifted the journal in my hand, “First year.”

He looked at me holding the journal with interest. “So, this is their advice?”

“I guess. I haven’t read it yet. I thought now might be a good time to start reading it, but I can do it later tonight.” I said putting it down. “Did you need something from me?”

He rubbed the back of his neck with his hand, “Um, no. But…” his eyes moved down to the journal, “Um…maybe we could read that together?” He said like a question or request. Maybe a little of both.

I look down at the journal, running my fingers across the front again, “Um, I guess that would be okay.” I answered shyly, “But they stay here. My parents left it for me, so these are mine.”

He gives me a sheepish grin. “I won’t take them, I promise.” He stands and comes around the desk. He grabs my hands and helps me to stand up, “Thank you for trusting me and for not hating me.”

I sigh, “I don’t hate you, Jaxon. I am hurt that you didn’t trust me to tell me these things sooner. I know there is more, but I am hoping you will tell me the rest, sooner, rather than later.”

He pulls me closer. “I promise, I will tell you everything after we finish moving you from Dark Flame.”

“Okay.” I said and I stand on my tip toes and kiss him lightly on the lips. He holds me tighter and starts to deepen the kiss. His kisses are heady and I melt in his arms. I wrap my arms around his neck and I hear him growl approvingly as a moan slips out from me.

I feel one of his hands go behind my head and pull my hair back gently and I gasp. He wastes zero time and his tongue starts exploring my mouth as I moan out again. I really enjoy his kisses. I'm intoxicated by his scent and I like feeling his hands on me.

“Jaxon,” I moan, and he growls appreciatively as he doubles his efforts. It sends jolts through my body, “Oh!” I scream out.

Instinctively, my hands reach for his hair and pull him closer. I feel my body building like it did in the shower as this man smiles against my wetness and starts sucking on me harder until I feel my body shatter, once again. My body is jerking and I scream out, “JAXON!”

He is holding me down and making me ride out my orgasm as he laps up all of my arousal. When I finally come down from that incredible high, he moves to my mouth and kisses me again. I can taste my arousal on him. His forehead is on mine, “You taste divine, baby. I am becoming addicted to your brand of flavor.” He says.

I blush furiously. I can’t believe we just did that. It was so incredible. “You feel divine, Jaxon.”

“Oh, yeah?” he smirks.

I nod. I’m feeling really shy all of a sudden. I shouldn’t; he’s my mate after all. But I can’t help feeling shy around him now.

“Come, let’s shower. I think we both need to clean up now.” He says.
