The Contest by Cooper (Jaxon & Evangeline)

Chapter 34 (Jaxon)

When we arrive on my sister’s pack lands, I’ m really excited for Evangeline to not only get to meet my family in a more in-depth way, but also to see her family.

As soon as we step out of the car, she’s surrounded by her siblings.

“Evie!” they say, engulfing her in a hug.

I go to the trunk pulling our bags out before coming around the car. I watch as her siblings step back frowning, Magdalena putting Eve at arm’s length.

“Is it me or are you more ripped than you were only a week ago?” she asks.

“Ezekiel is a drill sergeant! I hope you got him for our pack,” Eve says looking at Alejandro.

“Not for a few weeks, but he’ll be there.”

“He’ll practically bring you to your knees, but wow, I feel stronger after only a week,” she says to them.

“You look stronger,” Lazio says to her.

“Your sister was amazing. She held her own and never backed down,” I tell them, coming to stand beside them, smiling at my mate.

“I had a lot of encouragement,” she says, moving to stand beside me.

I wrap my arm around her. “You didn’t need it, you’re tough all on your own.”

“Alright, stand aside, let me see my daughter,” Luna Katerina says, walking up.

Eve pulls away from me before stepping up to her mother.

“Hi mom,” she says hugging her.

It looked like Eve had planned the motion to be a quick hug, but Luna Katerina wraps her arms around her, holding Eve against her and taking a deep breath.

“Your siblings are right, you’re more lean, more muscular,” Katerina says, stepping back. Similarly to Magdalena, she holds her away from her and looks her over.

“Wow! We should try to get Ezekiel twice,” Katerina says, looking over her shoulder at Alpha Luke as he walks up.

“He’s already booked up,” he says coming to stand beside his mate.

“Hello Evangeline,” he says before looking up at me. “Hello Alpha Jaxon.”

“Alpha, Luna,” I say greeting them, just before my twin comes racing out of the packhouse in a very un-Alpha way. “JAXON!”

She races into my arms, slamming herself against me. I grunt as she stands back, looking at me.

“Holy s*hit! What happened to you?”

“Ezekiel.”

“Whoa,” Rowan says, following Jordan outside. Teagan follows her, but she’s looking at Alejandro who is smiling up at her.

“Seriously, bro, you got all this muscle from a week with Ezekiel.”

“Yeah,” I look at Jordan. “Did you schedule him?”

“In a couple of weeks, now I can’t wait!”

“Make sure you have lots of food. We about ate Alpha Jonas out of his packhouse,” Eve says.
