Holiday with an Assassin

It's holiday season, and the students at the Coalition Academy are excited about the upcoming break—all of them, that is, but Jax. Since the Lion shifter's parents disowned him, Jax has no home to call his own. While his best friend Ava invited him to come home with her, Jax worries he will just be an unwanted addition to her family.
Shane, Trevor, and Ava are determined to prove Jax is anything but unwanted. They think of him as one of the family and love him. But can Jax let go of his doubts to believe that, or is he going to have a very unhappy holiday?
