Writer’s POV “No you.” Zac held Fisher angrily by the collar and lifted him up. By this time he was already shivering and his body was already weak.Hailey stood at the corner watching everything and he still felt bad for Fisher even after what he did for her. She was to be angry and ensure his punishment but instead she wasn’t.She felt bad that he would be the one to get all the punishment as Cedric was smart enough to manipulate him and leave him to blame for everything.Hailey wonders what pushed him to be so gullible, couldn’t he tell that there was a foul play when he was supposed to be the one acting while Cedric made the calls?This was supposed to be a lesson for him but Hailey was more interested in Cedric, she wanted him to pay for this as he wasn’t here and she knew he might end up escaping. Once he finds out that I was freed he’ll know Fisher has been caught but he wasn’t caught in the act of anything.Hailey held her wrist and massaged it gently because it was aching h
Writer’s POV“Where are we going?” Hailey inquired as Zac opened the car door for her. They left Fisher there and she was the only reason why Zac changed his mind.He wanted to do away with Fisher to teach him and others a lesson but the only reason he had a rethink was because of Hailey.She stared at him as they walked towards his car and it was Halley that he came to save her. At the same time, he was the reason she was in this mess to begin with.He was the one who got her entangled in all this mess which was more of the reason why she wanted to stay away from him. She wanted her own space to herself and he was hindering that. If she kept on hanging around him, he was going to keep on getting her involved in all these issues which she wanted to have nothing to do with.She had been trying to avoid him but he still found his way back to her one way or the other. He was unwilling to let her go and she didn’t know how else to keep him away. Zach himself knew that she was trying to
Writer’s POVThe drive was quiet for a while maybe because There was nothing to talk about or because Hailey had an uncertain feeling. She didn’t know where to place it as her head was aching.She felt an uncertain way and she didn’t know why, she felt scared and worried about something but she didn’t know what she was scared about… She had a very strong feeling like something was going to happen, but she didn’t know what.She found it hard to connect to her wolf too and she thought it might be because she was bothered. She shrugged the feeling off her head and calmed herself down.She just needed to get herself treated and have a good sleep because she was so excited and tired. She stared outside the window and allowed the cold evening breeze to blow her hair around.It gave her some sort of comfort from the heaviness in her heart. She didn’t know why she felt this way but she wanted to get rid of it.The breeze caused her eyes to get watery and a tear dropped from her eyes but she
Writer’s POVThe drive back to Zac’s house was quiet because there was nothing to talk about. Hailey just kept staring at her hand as they approached his house. Zac didn’t know if he offended her by the way he acted in the hospital but there was nothing else he could do. The doctor was doing too much and it just got on his last nerves.He still felt that Hailey might be upset at him for their outburst so he thought of apologizing to her to Let her know that he didn’t mean it. Even if he did mean deep down that Hailey was for him and belonged to no other person, he still didn’t want to make her uncomfortable.He already made her understand the reason why he felt that her staying with him was the best idea for this while was because of her safety. So he didn’t want her to think it was all for selfish interest.Although he cared about her and he wanted her, he had to be very slow and steady and that was not the way to go about it. “Hailey.” He called out still with his gaze fixed on th
Writer’s POVHailey immediately seemed uncomfortable with the direction the conversation was going. She didn’t know what to say to Zac because she didn’t have an answer herself.She wasn’t exactly sure if she wanted to stay away from him forever or if it was just till she got her feelings right. Whatever it was, she didn't want to have to answer him. This was one of the reasons why she didn’t want to come and stay with him, she knew things like this puke happen and of course, he’d ask her questions.Zac wondered what was taking her too long to reply but he didn’t urge her and just kept on driving. He knew she was going to say something and right now she was probably still processing her thoughts. He hoped she didn’t say yes, that she didn’t want to see him again because he wasn’t willing to let her go. Of course, he was willing to try over and over again till she felt comfortable with him around again.He knew a lot of people didn’t want her anywhere around him but this was his life
Writer’s POVHailey didn’t bother arguing with Zac because she knew what she said might have hurt him. But she couldn’t help the fact that she felt that way. It wasn’t her fault all of these things happened but she still felt that he could have done better.She knew she sounded so selfish but she couldn’t help the fact that that was just how she wanted things to be. Zac stood there and watched her go Inside the house before he got back into the car and drove off.It was obvious that Zac didn’t want Hailey to know that he left the house already.Hailey soaked gently through the house and she couldn’t admit that she missed her so much, after all this was hers before she was forced to leave here.Being back at Zac’s house gave her a form of comfort that she didn’t understand. She felt safe and at peace here and she didn’t understand why.She walked gently touching the interior which seemed to be shining and more elaborate than when she went. If there was something that Zac liked, it was
Olivia’s POV I went into the room and made sure the maid was one before I finally locked the door behind me. I went over to the bed there and laid down on it for a while. My head was aching and I needed some time to calm down before I even thought about doing anything. I just laid there staring at the ceiling and it automatically made me remember some things. I didn’t know if this was a good feeling or bad feeling that I felt but it kept on lingering in the corner of my heart and I didn’t exactly know what to do with it. Coming back here was just different to me even if I basically spent a lot of time in my life here, it still felt different and it was a feeling I couldn’t comprehend. I didn’t know if I was going to stay here for a long time or if I'd go back to my place because I didn’t want to be around Zac anymore. This wasn’t about me not having anything for him but I had to put myself first. People are After my life and I was willing to put my life on the line just because
Alpha Zac's POV I drove down to the office, I needed to get this settled once and for all. Cerdic should have known better than to go for what was mine. Did he think I wasn't going to find her? Did he think he was going to have his way and then hurt her? And I wasn't going to do anything about it? The reason I wanted to teach him a lesson was for double-crossing me. He planned a kidnap on Hailey of all people in my life and then tied her up, I was going to cut those hands of his that he used to her skin, my property. My teeth gritted in anger as I couldn't wait to get my hands on him. I already gave his stupid company the beating of his life but he was only spared because of Hailey. . She was too compassionate for my liking, these people would have killed her without thinking twice and she still cared about them? I didn't care what she thought and the only reason I let him go was just to respect her decision. I was still going to take matters into my own hands because there w
Alpha Zac’s POVI arrived somewhere leading to the woods as I followed Cedric’s scent, I couldn't go any further in my human form. Snatching a small leather bag that contained my guns and my phone. I kept it in between my teeth as I changed to my werewolf form, my clothes ripping as I changed. I rushed through the woods, my senses aware of every fucking sound. I was in my predatory mode now, ready to kill anything in sight, no turning back. That asshole, Cedric, how dare he take my family? He was a dead man, that, I would make sure.I fucking trusted him. He was my beta for fucks sake. Well, I now understand the saying that it's not the stabbing in the back that hurts but it's when you see who stabs you that kills you. I stopped , zeroing in on everything but my senses to guide me. He was close by, I was beginning to catch his scent again. He was somewhere south ahead of me. I ran, my predatory mode kicking in again. His scent was getting stronger meaning I was near. I could he
Alpha Zac’s POVThe weight of worry and determination bore down on me as I set out to find Cedric. I knew that involving others could put them at risk. Cedric was desperate and dangerous, and I couldn’t afford to let him hurt anyone else. With a fierce resolve, I followed the faint traces of his scent, my senses heightened by adrenaline.In preparation for my departure, it was of utmost importance to me that Mark was handling all matters on the home front. I couldn't afford to leave any loose ends untied, particularly considering the potential threat still posed by Matilda. With a heavy heart, but a steady voice that belied the turmoil raging within me, I dialed Mark's number. As I awaited his answer, my mind raced with thoughts of everything that could go wrong in my absence. I had entrusted Mark with the responsibility of keeping our family safe and secure, and I couldn't help but feel a twinge of anxiety about leaving them in his hands. However, I knew that he was a capable and res
Alpha Zac’s POVThe morning sun broke over the horizon as I quietly left the house, careful not to disturb Hailey or Kendall. Today was special, and I wanted everything to be perfect. I made my way to the most luxurious jewelry store in town, determined to find the perfect ring for Hailey. The previous night’s proposal had been spontaneous and heartfelt, but now I wanted to make it official with a symbol of my love and commitment.The jewelry store was filled with sparkling treasures, but I knew exactly what I wanted. I spent time examining each piece, ensuring I chose the most exquisite ring that would capture the essence of our bond. As I finalized the purchase, my phone vibrated in my pocket. I glanced at the screen and saw multiple missed calls from Mark, my PA. A frown creased my forehead, but I decided not to call back immediately. Today was about Hailey and our future together.Satisfied with my purchase, I hurried back home, eager to surprise Hailey with the ring. Entering the
Hailey's POVEarly morning light poured through the kitchen windows, giving the dining table where I was seated across from Alpha Zacs warm glow. Before the day truly began, the home was stilla rare and precious moment of peace. Our vibrant five-year-old daughter Kendall was still asleep upstairs, so the two of us could enjoy this quiet breakfast together.Alpha Zac grinned at me after sampling the fluffy scrambled eggs; his eyes softened with a kindness that always made my heart skip a beat. "This is fantastic, Hailey," he remarked with genuine gratitude in his rich voice. "You really didn't need to go through the hassle of cooking. We have maids specifically for that."Feeling both pride and satisfaction, I returned his smile. "I knew, but I wanted to do this. It feels more personal, more... us." I stretched across the table and he grabbed my hand in his, his touch firm but gentle.We held hands for a moment, our relationship stronger than words could express. I inhaled deeply, feel
Hailey’s POVOne moon later,“What do you want for breakfast?” Zac called out to me from the kitchen.Just finished dressing up for my baby girl and I went downstairs to go to Mide’s and open that’s what it was doing in the kitchen because I knew that he couldn’t do everything on his own even if he always acted like he could.I bathed her gently and got her dressed in the best outfits I could see. Zac made sure she had everything and more.She always had an excess of everything.It all always landed out on the right spot and I knew how much I felt so overjoyed because of that.I had the perfect family and I don’t ever think you can wish for anything more than that.As soon as I went down the staircase, a maid came running to me.She smiled at Kendall and collected her from me to go and feed her.I have waited so long for this happily ever after life because me and my husband have gone through so many things and this was just what we needed now.After all of the hardships and trials,
*Back to present * ALPHA ZAC'S POVI was so tired that I wanted to sleep today but I was awakened by a phone call from Mark and I knew he had news…I immediately sat up and picked up the call.“Good morning master,” he said calmly.“Good morning Mark, what's wrong?”“I'm sorry for calling you this early because I know it's interrupting your sleep but I have news and they can't wait.”“It's fine but what's the news?”“It's about Cedric.”“What about him?”“I found him and I'm on his trail as we speak. He's been meeting with someone for a week now and the identity of the person is still unknown. So I want to follow him to where he's seeing the unknown person so I'll go after he leaves.” “Make sure Cedric never finds out that you're on his trial. I don't want him to know that I know that he's back here. So you mean he meets the same person at different locations for a week.”“Affirmative and I believe that this person can give us meaningful information about Cedric that we'll be able t
*Flashback*Hailey’s POV“You! What are you doing here? Can’t you knock or something?” I yelled in a mixture of anger and shock at the same time.“Well, I did knock and there was no response and that’s the only reason why I came in, and I didn’t even know you were in the shower.” He said calmly, still staring at my body casually, which made me uncomfortable immediately.“Turn around and stop looking at me, don’t you have any manners or courtesy at all?” I yelled and he turned around immediately without saying anything.I was embarrassed and shocked at the same time. Why would he see me in such a position and why didn’t my wolf announce his presence in my room? I immediately reached for my towel and I wrapped it around my chest, finally feeling comfortable I asked him to turn back.“What are you doing in my room anyway? Can’t you just wait for me to come down by myself or something?” I snapped at him but still, he had a calm countenance plastered on his face.“Take a chill pill, I was
Hailey’s POVI helped Kendall out of the car while Alpha Kendall decided to carry her on his back and Kendall giggled. “ This is a fun father. "Kendall said excitedly.“Anything for you my little girl .” He said, carrying her joyously. I could see the joy in Kendall’s face amidst the pain I could also see there.I knew she was trying to be strong for us and I appreciated my little girl for that. I wish there was a way to relieve her of this pain because she didn’t have to go through this.She was just a child with a lot of medical conditions and I’ve done a lot and given up a lot just for her, everything I ever wasn't through was for her and I would do it all over again. That was why I didn’t hesitate when Alpha Zac called, I didn’t want to see her but of course, I wanted to see Kendall happy and I wanted her to know one way or the other that he was her dad. .As we walked into the house I carried her bag of clothes in my arms while the nurse held some other things. It took a lot fo
Flashback Hailey’s POV I looked at the lady with a confused expression on my face. "Uhhhh, excuse me. What do you need?" I asked her. "Oh darling, you're already excused. Say whatever it is you want to say," the lady said, looking at me with an annoyed expression on her face. "I'm sorry but I don't know what you're talking about," I said to her, further confusion written all over my face. "Oh really, you don't? Well, I guess it's time I introduced myself. My name is Matilda and I'm Alpha Zac's wife. Well actually, I'm his fiancée but we all know it would end up in marriage and I'll be referred to as his wife soon," the lady said. I rolled my eyes in my mind. No wonder she has been acting this way since I came in, I thought. "Oh it's nice meeting you, Matilda," I said, faking a smile, while stretching my hand to shake her but she looked at my hand with contempt. "Earlier you said your relationship with the Alpha is that you're a mere healer and I hope that that's all
