XADEN

I stood behind her door, hearing her loud sobs and whisperings to our baby. So this was what failure felt like, after putting in a whole lot of effort and time. Who was I kidding? Two years was an awfully long time to be alone. With a kid.

Every night as I lay in bed, I continuously wished for something different. A second chance. I would sacrifice being the Alpha just to be with her. I wanted my destiny changed overnight. I prayed to the moon goddess for help. Nothing happened.

I sat down on the stairs, holding my hand to my chest in a bid to ease the pain. I had not just been stabbed by anyone. She had the greatest influence over me and she was using it well. I mean, I was the Alpha, and a few words from her had me struggling with movement.

Even after Celeste had gotten what she deserved, she'd played her part to the end. I was ruined. Soraya hated me. No, she loathed me. And everything was my fault.

I never wanted to be the cause of her pain. I just wanted a happy home and

    XADENAnd yet, here he was. He arched a brow. "You're not the only one who can handle a tracker. I've been following you. You're not doing too well, Xaden."I took the shot in one go and pushed the cup towards the bartender. I felt tipsy now and I was happy I was almost at my limit. I smiled. "If you didn't come here to help then why are you here?""What do you need help with?" James asked still on his first cup. What a slow ass. How can one sip a shot? You were supposed to drink it all. "Tell me how to fix the mistake that is my life." "Why would you think your life is a mistake?" He gulped down his own drink and I smiled again, almost laughing. The James I knew was not much of a gentle man, I learnt drinking from him. "Because it is. It's either that or I have been cursed in some way." I placed my head on the counter and drew little circles around the cup I had been drinking from. "Is this about the rumours that have been going around? We both know that Celeste was a monster. W

    SORAYAI broke him. I pushed the door open behind him, refusing to look into his eyes, as I didn't want to break myself. Xaden looked like he'd been drained of life with my last statement. My wolf tumbled from being so close to him but I ignored her completely. I didn't have a choice but to set myself free. He was intoxicating me. His constant decisions, made for mostly only his benefit, were hard to adapt to. He caused all this mess in the first place. How do you propose when you don't even have a relationship? What prompted him to take that step? I wish I could find out. Voices in my head were getting louder. "You're a bad mum," They said. "You don't love yourself, You think this is the best for Kaylee?" I wanted to scream again but then Xaden would be convinced I was going crazy. The look in his eyes didn't make anything better. I felt worse. Every goddamn time. I wasn't fast enough. I didn't want him to meet me like this. I wasn't ready for a full discussion with him. No matter

    SORAYAI sincerely hoped Jeremy wasn't planning anything funny. Now I'd seen Xaden all soft and sad, but it didn't wipe out the memory that I had of him. He was the fucking goddamn Alpha! What was Jeremy thinking saying things carelessly like that? What if Xaden saw the text on my phone? The last time they met, the threat in his eyes was not so welcoming. I didn't want any harm to come to Jeremy. Xaden was dangerous and he had the influence to support it. I had a thought to text Jeremy back but I brushed it off. Text him back? Communication was the biggest risk I could take right now. Things were just getting good, I couldn't sacrifice that because I had to save someone.As much as I longed to see Jeremy again I really hoped these were empty threats that he was making. I looked at the text on my phone again and deleted it. It was better if I didn't know anything about it. I looked outside the window and sniffed in the cool evening air. We'd been riding for a few hours now and it was

    SORAYAXaden was now laughing at my sudden change of expression. Tch. I didn't blame him. It was funny. I smiled back, a little embarassed that he'd figured out what I was doing. "What's so funny?" Now we were having a conversation. Way to protect yourself girl!"You, Trying to stay mad at me." He was close to me now, looking down and pointing at my nose. I felt a little poke behind my dress. Oh Soraya! How could you forget you have a kid? "Mama. Mama." Kaylee was poking me and pointing at a particular door that had decorations in front of it. What was that about? "What is it, Kay?" I bent down to hear her properly. "Mama." She pointed to that door and I noticed the decorations were a bit attractive. I tapped who was busy on his phone. "What's in there? Kaylee wants to go in there." "Oh about that. I was just about to tell you. It's like a kids section." Xaden picked Kaylee up and she giggled calling him Dada. They were so cute together. "A kids section?" I was a bit confused. W

    SORAYA"I remember... you mentioned him to me before. But not the details..." Xaden sipped his coffee looking rather chill. I had completely forgotten that on our first meeting after that night, I told him about.I nodded, biting my lip unsure of where to start. His expression wasn't helping either. But he wanted to talk about this. He wanted to know didn't he?"Well uhm. I found out Liam was my mate in highschool..." I started, the memories of that phase of my life hit me. "I thought we were good together," I took another bite and watched as Xaden listened keenly. He was actually interested in what I had to say. "Go on..." He pressed, his voice strained. I didn't feel pain concerning Liam anymore. Infact, it was a little embarrassing to talk about it. But I did anyway. I felt myself warming up to Xaden more than I thought possible, given our past. I had agreed to give him a chance. I'd have to open my heart so I could trust him again. "He got accepted in Elite and he left. I applie

    XADENI followed closely behind her, looking sideways searching through with my eyes. It could not be what I was thinking. Kaylee couldn't just disappear. There was no one here to take her right? I walked faster now, catching up to Soraya as she muttered things I couldn't understand, looking everywhere and pointing at almost everything. She was losing her mind. I had to be stronger for her. But how could this be? I left her with Kaylee. There was no one else here except for the workers I hired. That was unless, one of them was responsible for this. Had Kaylee been kidnapped? A million thoughts ran through my mind as I walked with Soraya looking everywhere possible. She kept muttering things but my hearing was blocked out. I had to focus with all my senses or I could lose them too. My daughter is missing for fuck's sake.After walking around for about twenty minutes, I held Soraya by the shoulder. She stopped walking and turned to me, her eyes were already reddened from too much cryi

    XADENMy eyes fell to the floor. I wasn't expecting such harshness, but then again I had said too much. Soraya was right. What was I thinking? For all I knew, this could be Celeste's handwork or her bastard father, Malcolm. I should have killed them myself on sight. “We'll, find her, I promise.” Dead or alive, we will find her. Hopefully alive.Dax arrived almost an hour later and he walked towards me. "How did you get here so fast?" "We flew here, boss. Time is not on our side and we're not familiar with this area. You're going to have to come with us." I looked at him and back at the door. There was no way I'd just leave. I approached the door one more time. I needed this woman to know that I wasn't going to let her go. "Soraya, baby, Dax is here. And I would have to go with him to look for her. I need you to stay here, while I get our baby girl back. Okay?" My chest ached from reminding her of the unfortunate situation we were in. I wished she would talk to me. I waited for a fe

    SORAYAMy whole body shook with fear as I listened to the voice on the other end of the phone. It was cold and threatening. My mind went blank as the realization of the entire situation hit me. Kaylee had been kidnapped. My baby did not drown or wander around, she had been kidnapped. My eyes widened as I glanced at Xaden, shock rippling through me. Or was it the fear that immediately ate me away. I caught the same blank expression on his face. Why did this have to happen to us every time? My mouth was wide open, but nothing formed. The horrors I faced when I was kidnapped confronted me in my mind, I was too shaken to speak. All I could think about was Kaylee, how strangers scared the shit out of her, her calling for me and not getting any response. I refused to imagine the things they could do to her. Goddess please. My mind flooded with questions, asking myself how and where I went wrong. I knew it wasn't the Xaden situation, this target had meant to hurt me specifically. Why else

    CELESTE What a show that was! I thought excitedly to myself as I retrieved two clear crystal glasses and a bottle of absinthe from the living room side bar, Xaden had requested for the strongest stuff I could lay my hands on. Seeing Soraya completely stranded, scared and afraid had filled me with so much ecstasy that I thought I would burst. Nothing could have prepared me for it, Xaden definitely did not pull any punches and I loved every bit of it. There was however one little bump in an otherwise flawless plan, he didn’t have the guts to send the bitch packing. He could have ranted for as long as he wanted and even tried to come up with valid reasons as to why he couldn’t kick her out but in the end, I knew there was a part of him buried deep down that still cared for her even when he thought she had been unfaithful to him. I didn’t worry much about it, in no time, I would smother whatever little feelings he still harbored for her until I was the only one he saw, until I was the on

    SORAYA“Now tell me, is there anything I have not done or sacrificed for your protection and that of Kaylee? Or is there even any request you may have made that I have ever deemed as insignificant?” “No there isn’t. You have been most generous and I am grateful for everything.” I said as I threw a look of disdain at Celeste who was already seated and crossing her legs, obviously savoring every bit of that moment. She was having the time of her life at my expense and she wasn’t going to say one word. She wouldn’t risk undermining Xaden again and so she simply kept quiet and enjoyed the show.“Have I not been fucking good to you? Have I not been a loyal mate and genuine partner?” He asked, staring at me like he couldn’t even recognize the woman in front of him.“Xaden please, if we’re going to do this, can we not do it right in front of your ex wife?” I asked, while the pain of the way he looked at me threatened to bring me to my knees.“The same ex wife who got wind of all your escapa

    SORAYAXaden’s voice rang out through the halls with such an intensity that it had sent shockwaves thrusting throughout my body and the ominous tone with which he yelled, echoed throughout the space and filled it with a scary ambience. In all the time I had known and been with him, I never heard him sound so furious or intimidating. Sure, he normally had the occasional outbursts and feats of rage but there was something different this time around, this time it seemed as though the fire in his voice would never be palliated. I felt my lips twitch and my fingers tremor in fearful anticipation of what was to come, it definitely was not going to be pleasant.I was still set up in the kitchen with Melissa and had almost rounded up with the pastries we spent the better part of the evening preparing. I had put so much effort into them and now it seemed like in the end, it would all be for nothing. I was still going to get them done and Melissa could keep them for all I care, she worked just

    XADEN “You can be honest Dax, you don’t have to be brutal about it.”He paused momentarily, thinking over what he had to say. “If I’m being honest, I wouldn’t say my advice on this would be the most insightful but from the way I see things, I don’t think Soraya is or will ever get over Celeste living in your house. It’s just not right, I mean I don’t even live there and I really find it repulsive. I can’t possibly imagine how hard it must be for her to wake up to that everyday.”“Well, it seems you ended up being brutal with your honesty Dax.” I began, stifling a smile. “The thing is, that is what she said and I don’t believe it one bit. She may not have been comfortable but I knew she was already coming around to tolerating and ignoring her. No—this is more than that, this is definitely something deeper. The switch was too sudden and that’s completely out of character for her. There is something afoot Dax, I’m just finding it hard to place my finger on what it is.”“Like I said boss

    XADEN To say that I had the faintest idea of what has been going on for the past three days would be an obvious lie. One moment everything seemed to be fine with Soraya and I thought we were finally in a good place and the next, it’s almost as if her mind did a complete one-eighty and I couldn’t even recognize my mate anymore.I had gone above and beyond for her protection, pulled strings to organize a lavish and fancy dinner for her, I even kept my distance from Celeste, choosing to move her away from the masters and still, it’s almost as if it wasn’t enough. There was something definitely wrong with her and whatever it was, she was choosing not to tell me. If she wouldn’t spill, then I guess I would just have to pry it out of her when I had the chance. But how could I even possibly get the chance? She refused to move back into our room, refused to cook and eat together as a family, it’s like living with a completely new person.Screeeeeech!I quickly slammed on the brakes of my SUV

    SORAYAI didn’t know how George had done it but he somehow managed to drop Kaylee off and still get me to the university in time for lectures. Xaden sure knew how to employ those who were the best at what they did and our movement this morning was quite hasty. I couldn’t say the same for the classes though, the entire process just seemed to drag on for hours as lecturers replaced one another in a frenzy. I was grateful for the close of day and quickly made my way to the parking lot. I located the car parked in a corner under a tree shade and hurriedly walked up to it before knocking on the driver window.“Did you wait here all day?” I asked, looking over at George who had his hat hooded over his face and the driver seat reclined. He had probably been napping. He jumped up with a start and quickly adjusted his seat.“Sorry about that ma’am.”“Don’t apologize for resting, I mean what else would you do here all day? So you just stayed here waiting for me?”“Yes ma’am, those were my dir

    SORAYA Morning definitely couldn’t have come faster. I thought as my eyes opened to the soft glints of the early morning sun that slowly filled the entire room. The cool fall breeze softly sipped in through the open window and caressed my skin with a tender feel. It was a beautiful morning and I couldn’t even appreciate it, all I felt was an heartache that threatened to tear me apart.I hadn’t had much sleep, how could I? When Celeste had made sure I heard everything that was going on during their dinner, even while I did my very best to ignore. She wasn’t kidding when she said she would be keeping me here simply for the fun of humiliating me and last night was seriously a test of my patience, I didn’t know how much more of it I would be able to take.With every laughter and happy moment that they seemed to share, an equal of amount of pain shot through my body and just seeing them cozy up to each other like that was simply too much to bear.I promptly got out of bed and went into th

    SORAYA“Wow! I pulled a lot of strings to get that Italian chef flown in and you’re just going to spit it right back in my face huh?”Damn! He got me Italian food?! What a dreadful waste.“I’m not spitting anything in your face. I just said I’m not in the mood, surely you can understand that right?”“Oh I understand quite alright. I understand perfectly that you’re just a cocktease! Don’t let the door hit you on your way out.”“Okay then.” I whimpered as I moved slowly towards the door.“And since I can’t cancel the booking, I’ll still have the chef come over. I’m sure Celeste would enjoy some good food since you would be too busy not being in the mood.” He called out after me. He wanted to hurt me just like I was hurting him but at least I was pretending and he was just being a dick.“You can go to hell Xaden!” I said, choking down my tears.“You first Soraya!”I stormed off and pulled against the bedroom door before shutting it loudly as I stepped into the hallway.“Well, well, well

    SORAYA I remained in the kitchen, standing there transfixed, like a deer caught in headlights. I was definitely caught by surprise with what I had just seen. I couldn’t believe it and yet I knew it was true, I mean I saw it with my own eyes.I could feel every hair on my body stand, my mouth suddenly went dry and palms were sweaty. My heart raced and my breathing felt forced, I felt like I was having a panic attack.At that moment, it felt as if time slowed down and I couldn’t help but hold onto the counter for support lest I fall flat on my face. My mind raced and Celeste’s words rang loudly in my head. Stay away from Xaden! Those were her words and she wasn’t one to trifle with her instructions. I felt choked for air and all of sudden I was light headed. The evidence was clear, clear as day and it was good, really good. She had caught me in such a compromising position that Xaden wouldn’t even think twice to dispute it. He believed so much in the things he saw and as long as his
