Fighting For The Alpha's Mark Seven
SevenThe night stretched long and restless. I pulled the blankets higher, unable to sleep. The apartment felt too quiet. Eve had gone to her boyfriend's place, so it was just me and the boys.I had locked every door, checked every window twice. Still, I felt exposed, like Xavier was creeping into my space and pressing against the walls.A whimper broke through the silence. Jermaine was calling for me. My heart clenched as I scrambled out of bed and rushed to his side. He was curled up under the covers, struggling to breathe."Oh no, not now," I groaned, my heart banging against my rib cage."Baby," I knelt, brushing curls from his forehead. His skin burned under my palms. His eyes cracked open."Mommy," he said weakly.I scooped him into my arms, cradling him against my chest and rocking him. I reached for the bottle of medicine on the nightstand and pressed it to his lips."Here, sweetheart, just a little sip."He swallowed sluggishly. His breathing still sounded rough, but after a

SavannahMy heart nearly burst from my chest when my gaze locked onto Xavier. He seemed to be on the lookout for me, as there were over ten military officers right in his house. The intensity of his stare made me shiver. My legs wobbled, refusing to hold my weight properly.I wasn't even doing anything wrong, yet his stare made me feel like a guilty child caught with their hands in the cookie jar.Dread settled in my bones. Somehow, Eve's optimistic tone kept ringing in my head. It's not like I've stolen the money yet, nor did I force that little girl to call me her mother.The thought of Xavier finding out the truth and rejecting me made my stomach churn. My ex, Eddie, wasn't even my mate, yet I suffered through his rejection, still carrying the scars to this day. I wasn't sure if I could survive the rejection of a fated mate.This Alpha was so powerful that he had the ability to erase me from existence with a single command. He took a step toward me. I shuffled backward.But I notic

Xavier There was something about Sasha that didn’t sit right with me, though I couldn’t put my finger on it. It wasn’t just the uncertainty of whether she had truly lost her grip on reality or if we were all just imagining it.It was something different.Sasha was the kind of person who faced everything head-on, whether it was a fight, an argument or competition. She had always been the kind of woman who could stare down danger without blinking. When she walked into a room, her presence felt like she had the weight of a hurricane behind her.But now, that fire was gone.The sharp edges of her eyes and the way she would meet anyone’s gaze with fearlessness had faded into something vacant. Now, she looked hollow, like a blade left to rust. She was broken.I should have been seething with rage. My marriage to her had been on the rocks, and if it weren't for the political pact and if it wasn't for the fact that I still remembered that night as vividly as it happened, the night when I fi

SavannahXavier guided me out of the room, holding my hand. Each step toward the staircase felt like the slow ticking of a clock counting down to a bomb explosion. I held onto his hand tighter, seeking stability as my legs threatened to betray me.Deceit was a terrible thing. It caused a heavy weight to press against my heart. I could feel the physical force against my ribs. When we reached the landing, my gaze landed on a man and a woman waiting below.The man seemed powerful, the kind that had experienced years of leadership and ruthlessness. He had salt-and-pepper hair and was huge. Beside him stood a tall and slim woman exuding grace. Her skin shone like glass, and if one were to add years to me,I could pass for her. This was weird.The woman gasped and cried out, "Sasha, my darling!" She rushed forward, breaking into a run. My body locked up as she pulled me into a bear hug. She didn’t sense that I wasn’t Sasha, and with her face inches from mine when she pulled away, panic twis

Savannah I sat perched on the edge of the armchair, clutching a pillow. Sweat coated my palms, making the fabric feel slightly damp. I could feel the thump of my heartbeat against my ribs. Pressing my lips together, I tried to suppress the nerves eating me up. A car had just pulled into the driveway, sending a wave of panic through me. I was about to meet the doctor who specialized in trauma and memory loss—the doctor who was supposed to fix a memory that was never lost.I just hoped he would talk to me and listen without prescribing medication. They thought I was broken, malfunctioning, convinced that I was Sasha. What a joke. And now Xavier was trying to fix me, trying to rewire my brain. What if the medication had side effects? What if it altered me, made me act out, made me blurt out all the secrets I was hiding?My thoughts were spiraling into overdrive when Xavier joined me downstairs."Trust me, darling. He's going to help you. He's the best in town."My mouth opened to pro

Xavier I focused on Sasha as if trying to unravel every secret she held. There was something about her eyes. She looked at me softly yet guardedly, making me see her in a different light. Perhaps it was the memory loss or the presence of the bond I hadn’t felt in years, not since the hotel incident.The connection was a magnetic pull; it pulsed with energy and life, drawing me in. It was unbelievable how the bond transformed everything, how it made her the center of my world. Also ironic, considering we were on the verge of divorce.Watching her play in the pool with Adelaide made my breathing quicken. When our eyes met, I caught the desire in her gaze—a desire that matched the exact weight of what I felt.Back inside, she was helping Adelaide with a glass of juice when I stood behind her in the kitchen. I could tell by the slight tenseness in her body when my hand rested on her waist, feeling the warmth of her skin.“What are you doing?” she whispered softly. “Adelaide or anyone co

Savannah "I need to go see my grandpa," I said to Xavier, who was seated across the table. He paused and lifted his gaze, locking it on mine."Your grandpa?" he trailed off.I could already read the unspoken words—it seemed Xavier and this grandpa were not exactly best pals.I shrugged. "You've been talking about how important he is to our marriage. Figured I should go see him."He opened his mouth to speak but shut it, then nodded. "I understand. Go ahead. Do you want me to come with you?""Oh, hell no," I muttered under my breath."No, I'll be fine on my own. Just tell me the location, and I'll use the GPS."Leaving the house was easier than I had anticipated. I hadn’t expected Xavier to let me go alone, considering I was pretending to have memory loss. Thankfully, Sasha's grandfather's house was in the park, so I didn't have to lie about my location—the map would send Xavier a red alert if the car drove past the park.My hands guided the car in a slightly different direction.

SavannahXavier had informed me earlier in the day that I should expect visitors from my “friends.”The thoughts hammered against my skull. Sasha's inner circle—the people who knew her better than anyone—were coming to pay a visit. According to the doctor, I needed to connect with as many people as possible to "jog" my memory.A sharp wave of nervous energy hit me. I knew they would see through me. My pretense would be paper-thin.Thank goodness for the amnesia, I chuckled. It was the perfect disguise. But even with memory loss as a shield, I knew I was walking a tightrope. One wrong word, and they would know. They would see the stranger in Sasha’s skin. They would see the imposter.Liar. Fraud. Thief.My subconscious kept screaming in my head. I shook it off as I picked up one of Sasha’s gem-encrusted crowns.My gaze hardened as I stared at myself in the mirror. I was doing this for Jermaine—for my son’s survival. All I had to do was play it cool, act confused and disoriented, rehear

Xavier I hate flights.But I'd rather be caught dead than say that out loud. My body never handled being in the air well. Every time I flew, the moment we landed, my head would spin. My stomach turned like it was still floating. I always needed something cold, either a splash of water on my face or a drink chilled enough to reset my senses. That was the only way I could regain some balance after stepping off a plane.Gregory knew. He never let me forget. From the moment we landed, he kept throwing little jabs, teasing me like it was the funniest thing in the world. I ignored him. That was the only way to win. If I gave any reaction, he’d keep going. To prove him wrong, I asked for nothing. No water. No drink. No help. I just powered through it.The drive to the hotel was a blur. The kind where your eyes are open, but you don’t really see anything. I must have been conscious because I walked myself to my room, but I couldn’t remember anything in between.“You think you’re funny, huh?”

Savannah After that close call, I longed and prayed for peace. But it seemed that prayer went straight into the void.Xavier found me in the kitchen. I had been slicing vegetables, trying to focus on the rhythm of the knife. He came up behind me without a sound and wrapped his arms around my waist. His chin brushed my shoulder, and he held me close."You don’t know how it gladdens my heart to see you doing normal stuff," he said warmly. He kissed my cheek, and my stomach twisted with a strange flutter.I smiled without thinking, already missing his touch when he pulled away. I turned my head, just enough to see him rinsing a green apple at the sink.He bit into the apple and then said, “Gregory wants to join us for lunch. Do you mind?”My knife froze in mid-air.Not Gregory. My first instinct was to say no. I didn’t want that liar near me. He made my skin crawl.But instead, I heard myself say, “That’s fine. I’ll make something nice.”Xavier smiled. “All right then. See you at lunch

Savannah I returned home, debating whether to give in and embrace my mate. But then I remembered I had lied that I was on my period, and he wasn't even home.The next morning, as I was preparing Adelaide for school, she suddenly asked, “Mommy, why does Daddy always drop me at school and not you?”The question hit me like a wave. It wasn’t the first time she’d asked.Adelaide had a habit of bringing up things like this constantly, and it was really starting to get on my nerves. How was it that kids these days were so damn smart? It was like they were born with the ability to see right through every adult lie. Just yesterday, the boys had asked who their daddy was, like they were running some kind of covert operation to uncover hidden family secrets. And now, sweet, sassy Adelaide, wanted me to go to her school and expose myself to the whole class like I was some kind of public spectacle. I swear, these kids were going to make me crack before I even hit thirty.“She’s right,” Xavier

Savannah Jace's panicked shout broke through the quiet afternoon, slicing through the stillness like a knife. My heart immediately dropped as I heard it, and without hesitation, I dropped the laundry basket I had been holding and rushed toward the source of the sound.When I reached the backyard, I saw him sprawled on the ground. His knee was scraped and bleeding, the sight of it making my stomach twist with worry."Jace!" I exclaimed, rushing to his side. "What did I tell you about climbing trees?"His lips quivered as he looked up at me, but despite the tears in his eyes, he managed to pout in that stubborn way only a child could. "I thought I was strong enough, Mommy."I sighed, trying not to show how worried I was. "Strength isn't just about climbing trees or doing reckless things. It's about listening and being careful."I scooped him up in my arms, feeling the warmth of his small body against mine as I carried him inside. The weight of his childish pride, mixed with the pain o

Savannah I adjusted my gown, choosing Sasha's deep blue fabric. Elegant and attention-grabbing without being too much. I added a golden belt to cinch my waist and sapphire earrings that dangled from my ears.Xavier entered the closet. His presence filled the room like sunlight. Our eyes met through the reflection in the mirror. His lips curved into a smile. He stepped closer, wrapping his arms around me."You're so beautiful," he whispered intimately while settling a hand on my stomach. The touch sent a warm shiver through me.Without meaning to, I turned to face him and brushed my lips against his, catching him off guard for a bit."Goodness, I'm sorry," I said, pulling away.But it felt as though my actions had stirred something within him as if they had taken on a life of their own. He drew me closer, placing his hand on the small of my back, and pulling me into him. His lips met mine with an intensity that sent a spark through me, and I felt everything else fade into the backgro

Savannah Sasha's mother's eyes, the same shade of grey as mine, moved slowly from my feet to my face. She sat down beside me without saying anything at first. Her hands folded in her lap, then she reached out and placed one over mine. Her voice came out in a whisper, soft and low.“Oh, my darling Sasha.”She held my hand and rubbed it gently like she was trying to soothe me or reassure herself that I was real.“How are you feeling today, my love? Any better?”I gave her a small smile, not out of comfort but to play the part. I tried to show a little confusion in my expression, like someone who could not fully remember their own story. I hoped it was believable.“A little,” I said, choosing my words carefully. “Still... Everything feels fuzzy. Like a dream I can’t quite grasp.”She nodded slowly and pulled her chair closer to the bed. She leaned forward again, reaching for my hand once more.“Have you had any dreams? Anything at all that feels familiar? Even a flash of a memory, perha

Savannah I clutched the thin hospital gown with both hands. My grip was tight, like I was holding onto something more than just cloth. I lay on the hospital bed, cold against my back, in the Neuroradiology room. The lights above hummed. I kept holding the gown as if it could shield me, not from the cold, but from everything I was hiding.Inside me, fear and guilt were tangled together. They pulled at each other, each trying to take control. I closed my eyes for a second and tried to breathe.“Stay still, Luna,” the doctor said.His voice was steady. Calm. Like it was any other day. He wasn’t suspicious. He didn’t speak with judgment. He didn’t look at me like I was anything different from any other patient. Just another file. Another case.But that name.Luna.It didn’t feel like a title. It didn’t feel like something earned. It felt heavy. Like something placed on me by mistake. A name that didn’t belong to me. A name that clung like wet clothes. Every time they said it, I heard the

Xavier The community center was filled with Alphas from different packs leaning toward one another, speaking in quiet voices. Their conversations overlapped, some discussing current affairs, others catching up or exchanging reports. We were all seated around a large oak table, scattered with maps and glasses of spiced wine.I sat quietly, tapping the armrest of my chair with my ball pen. The upcoming regional coronation sat heavy in my mind. Two months. That was the timeline, assuming Sasha’s memory returned and things fell into place.The others kept glancing toward me. Not all the time, but enough for me to notice. Some looked for a reaction. Some waited for approval. Others just needed to feel my presence. Being the revered one came with both weight and watchfulness. It gave me a voice, but it also made silence feel louder.Then, the doors opened.Henry walked in. Sasha’s grandfather.My jaw tightened before I could stop it. He always found something. Always. It did not matter ho

SavannahPacing around the terrace, my heart thudded against my chest like it wanted to break free. I walked faster, trying to match its rhythm, but it only made the tension worse. I was angry. More than angry. Heat crawled under my skin. Every time I thought about that lying, cheating scumbag, it pushed the rage higher.I couldn’t let him get away with it.But exposing myself to such danger was reckless and stupid. Gregory was dangerous. I didn’t have powers or strength that could stand against him. I had stolen Sasha’s identity, walked right into a life that wasn’t mine, and now I was planning to destroy a man who could easily destroy me. But the thought of staying quiet, of letting him continue to walk around with his smug face and his lies, was worse.I wanted him to fall. I wanted to watch it happen.If I was going down, I wasn’t going alone.Xavier needed to know the truth about the people close to him. He needed to see what Gregory really was. The man who stood at his side,
