Jax’s Pov I have been preparing to take over as Alpha since I was eight years old. Yet I did not know about the trials. I feel like an i***t, especially being told by Adyson’s mate. I really have accepted that we are just friends and I am happy with that. However, I couldn’t help the jealousy coursing through me when he kissed her on the cheek. She was supposed to be mine, I can’t help but feel anger towards the moon goddess. What have I done to deserve this? I know I am attracted to Lila now with the bond but it isn’t the same. I have always disliked Lila as a person. Whereas, Adyson is beautiful inside and out. Maybe I should’ve picked Adyson still. It’s technically not too late, neither of us have actually mated yet. I need to get Adyson away from Joey so I can convince her to take me
