Zac’s POV“Hannah is hurt” was the first thing that registered in my heart as I looked between Matilda with the gun in her hand, to Hannah knocked unconscious on the bare ground, and then back to Matilda.“What did you do?” I asked her still in shock to fully understand what just happened. Matilda was aiming to shoot me that I am sure of but I do not understand why Hannah was the one on the floor.Matilda also seemed too shocked to speak; she looked wide-eyed at Hannah on the ground, covered in a pool of blood. “This girl is stupid” was the only thing she said before making a turn and disappearing into the forest.I wanted to follow her, I was tempted to run after her, catch her, and kill her but that in turn would cost Hannah’s life which I am not ready to give up on, so I let her run away for now, cause I will get back to her when I made sure Hannah was in a safe condition.I sprang toward where Hannah was lying helplessly on the cold ground, scoped her into my hands, and ran back t
Alpha Zac’s POV“You mean she will be up in a couple of days?” I asked the doctor to make sure I heard me right.“Yes. The bullet pierced her upper arm and the wound was very deep fortunately no vital organ was touched but when she fell, she hit her head so hard that I think it resulted in a serious concussion. The head injury is more the one keeping her unconscious than the actual bullet injury coupled with the fact that she lost a lot of blood. But I am sure she will be fine” He explained further, each of his words lifting the worry from my heart. At least I won’t live with the guilt that she was killed because of me.When the nurse told me they would be out soon from earlier, she was telling nothing but the truth because just a few minutes after I sat down, the door sprang open and the two doctors and three nurses that were in there trying to save her life all sprang out.When they first assured me that she would be fine I didn’t believe one but seeing as they all looked bloody an
Zac’s POVI slumped into the couch in my office, it’s been a long day. I haven’t had time for myself these past few days. The pack has so many things to do this week. I didn’t want to show it but I feel tense over what might happen soon.“Go away Adrian.” I say after I hear a knock from my door. I knew it was Adrian, it was only him that had the right to knock at this time.“Your phone.” He said.“Come in.” I said while I was massaging my temples. Hailey Would have cured of my headache is she was here. I missed her.“Do I have any missed calls? I don’t want any distractions right now. I need to take a nap, and I will resume my work.”“You have missed calls from Sapphire, a lot of them.” He said. I quickly went to him and grabbed the phone.“Why didn’t you tell me Adrian? You never do anything right.” I furrowed my eyebrows.“Sorry. You said you didn’t want to get distracted—”“My wife is not a distraction. She’s my wife. What if something happened to her?” I said between gritted teeth
Zac’s POV“I wanted to spend the night over at Hailey ’s place just to try to make up for those times when I wasn't always there for her.I was making dinner, and I even received a call from Mark.“You need to come back right now.” Mark said immediately I picked a call. I wondered what could have happened again.“What’s wrong?” I asked, walking out of the kitchen.“He’s back and is demanding the keys into your chambers. He now has access to the Mansion as he pleases. He doesn’t understand that this is your house and not the pack’s house.” Mark explained quickly.“That’s it.” I said in anger pacing around the room trying to suppress it.No matter what the issue was, I didn’t want my wife to see me angry.“What should we do? We can’t talk to him disrespectfully but I won’t give him the keys. Please get here soon.” Mark said calmly. “Keep your stance, I will be there soon.” I said briefly and the call ended I knew if it was something he could handle, he would have handled it by hims
Hailey's POV I just finished tucking Kendall into bed and I can downstairs to have my own dinner. I fed ke fall and then I wasn't feeling hungry yet so I decided to wait till I was actually hungry.On getting downstairs I lost appetite for no reason and the urge to have dinner just disappeared and I didn't want anything again.I checked the clock and there were just a few minutes left until eleven and there were no calls from Zac whatsoever.I wondered what was going on because he seemed to have been avoiding me for sometime and I couldn't place a reason.He came home less often and our conversations were always little and short. I wondered what was happening and if I did anything wrong but he said I didn't do anything.I still didn't believe him because I felt he was trying not to make me feel bad when indeed I was very wrong.I tried to think in order to remember if I actually did something but I couldn't place a finger at anything.I wanted things to be like before because it seem
Zac's POV“Mommy, mommy.” We heard Kendall cry out from her room and my heart immediately sank as I and Hailey looked at ourselves before rushing up to meet her.I could see the worried look on Hailey's face as she walked behind me up the stairs. I wondered what could be the problem but I didn't understand why I was thinking of the worst things that could happen.I paused a little at the door and looked back at Hailey who urged me to open the door. I opened the door and immediately perceived a different scent in the room but I didn't say it out loud.I knew it was going to make Kendall and Hailey scared but I knew I felt it and I wasn't wrong about it.Someone was in this room, but I couldn't trace the scent to who had it.I tried hard but it was impossible because the person already went far before I came in so it was hard to pick up the owner of the scent.Hailey was already beside Kendall gently Patting her head as she reassured her that everything was okay.Kendall still seemed ha
Hailey's POVI woke up early that morning and I went to check up on Kendall but she was still fast asleep. I didn't want to bother her because of what happened the previous night.I had a dream that I foundry quite recall every part of it. I remembered holding Kendall and we stood at the other side of the beach and waited. The clouds were much in our faces so it was hard for us to see what was on the other side.We watched calmly as we waited for someone’s arrival. Kendall was getting cold and I used my clothes to cover her gently. I was also cold but I waited calmly because I didn’t want to give up. I wanted to wait because I knew he’ll finally come and I wanted him to know that I trusted him. He promised me he’ll make it to the other side and I waited patiently. We wanted to see the best and we would never see it if we weren’t calm. We waited for ten more minutes and there was still no sign of him and I was Beginning to become worried. Wasn’t he going to make it again?Was he dea
*Flashback*Hailey's POV"What took you so long?" Amelia asked as I approached her. "The guy you pointed out to me as your Alpha stopped me from getting back here in time. He paid for all these after blatantly refusing his offer to help," I said rolling my eyes but the same wasn't the case with Amelia.Her eyes were wide open and I could see a small smile creeping up from the sides of her lips."You mean to say that the Alpha of my Pack spoke to you and not only that he paid for our food?" She asked."Uh, that's what I said earlier," I said looking at her with a look of surprise."You are so lucky," Amelia said to me.I furrowed my brows in confusion and asked,"Lucky? What do you mean by that?""I am a member of his pack but I haven't gotten close to him less of talking with him," Amelia emphasized."Oh please, what is so lucky about that?" I said."It means a lot; having a conversation with the Alpha is like having a visit from the Moon goddess. I have never experienced it but I ha
