Resisting The Alpha Cowboy When The Heart Flutters [2/4]
▄︻デ══━一 COLTON HAYES💥 The road narrowed the deeper I drove into the forest, the truck’s headlights cutting through the thick darkness. The trees loomed taller here, their branches stretching like outstretched arms, blocking out the moon. It had always felt different in this part of the farm—quieter, untouched. Like the world forgot it existed.And maybe that’s why I came here.Out in the open, under the stars, the pack would be gathered—drinking, laughing, celebrating the rare event. Falling stars. A night of wishes and whispered promises. A night meant for lovers.I tightened my grip on the wheel.That wasn’t why I was here.I always came alone. Always preferred it that way.Until now.Until her.The thought settled like a weight in my chest, but I ignored it, focusing on the road ahead.By the time I reached the end of the trail, where the trees grew too dense for the truck to pass, my pulse had settled into something steady. I killed the engine, the sudden silence thick and press

★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★The hike was steeper than I expected. Not unbearably so, but enough that my thighs were starting to burn with each step. Colton, of course, didn’t seem fazed at all. He was ahead of me, walking like he had done this a thousand times before. Which, apparently, he had.The forest around us was alive, but not in the way I was used to. In the city, nighttime meant distant car horns, the occasional shout, the hum of life even in the late hours. But here, it was different. It was quiet—not silent, just peaceful. The chirping of insects, the rustle of leaves as some unseen creature darted through them, the distant hoot of an owl.I liked it.I wasn’t sure why that surprised me. Each time I enjoy something from this farm or the small town, I always end up shocked. Colton glanced back at me, slowing his pace a little. “You good?”I huffed out a breath, pretending I wasn’t slightly out of breath. “Yeah. Totally. Love hiking.”His lips twitched. “You sure?”“Absolu

★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★The sky is alive. It's weird to say, but it’s the only way to describe it. The first batch of falling stars was beautiful, but this next one... I don’t think words can describe them.Hundreds—no, thousands—of streaks fall at once, each one a different shade this time. Silver, violet, deep blue, gold. It’s like the universe decided to spill its colors across the night, and I’m just lucky enough to be here to see it.I fumble with my phone, trying to capture it, but no camera could ever do this justice. Every time I blink, another flash of light streaks downward, another burst of color that makes my chest feel tight. It’s overwhelming in the best way. It’s like the stars have decided to become a rainbow. Beside me, Colton watches the sky with that unreadable expression of his. Not as awed as I probably look, but… softer. Contemplative. The glow from the falling stars reflects in his eyes, making them look like molten gold. He’s seen this a million times, b

★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★I woke up to the feeling of warm breath against my neck and the weight of an arm draped over my waist. The cave was still dim, the early morning light barely making its way inside. For a second, I forgot where I was. But then, I heard the steady rhythm of Colton’s breathing behind me, and the memories of last night hit me like a wave.The stars. The way we laughed between kisses. The way his hands felt on me—gentle yet firm like he wanted to memorize every inch of my skin. The way we moved together was slow and unhurried as if the night could stretch forever. Then how we decided a second round was needed so we could unleash our hunger for each other. Two rounds only, to spare my nether regions. I turned slightly, expecting to see him still asleep, but instead, his golden eyes were already on me, filled with something I couldn’t quite name. Or maybe I could, and I was actively choosing not to. A soft smile tugged at his lips. “Good morning.”I felt my ow

★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★I needed to find that vibration. I can’t go back without seeing this through to the end. The water was unnaturally still, save for the faint tremors rolling through it. I exhaled slowly, then let my body shift back to its human form, my legs unfurling as I waded toward the source of the vibrations. The water was cool against my skin, but something about it felt off. In my mermaid form, things had made more sense. Because I could sense the strong currents and little details that could be missed. But in my human form, I could still feel it. Just not as obvious. Which is even stranger. The vibrations in still water..... is so damn strange.The glow I had seen earlier had faded slightly, but the vibration was stronger now, pulsing in rhythmic bursts. Whatever was causing it wasn’t natural. Whatever is causing it is going against the norm.I moved carefully, brushing aside strands of floating moss as I neared the farthest edge of the lake. The cliffs loomed

▄︻デ══━一 COLTON HAYES💥 The water was crisp and cool against my skin, a perfect contrast to the early morning heat. I ran a hand through my hair, pushing it back as I floated for a second, letting the weight of everything roll off me. The past few days had been nothing but stress—between work, Vanessa, and the thoughts I wasn’t ready to name yet, this was the first damn moment I felt like I could actually breathe.Vanessa surfaced nearby, blinking water from her lashes, her lips twitching up in a soft smile."Not bad, huh?" I said, treading water.She hummed in agreement, tilting her head back. The sunlight caught on her skin, little beads of water sliding down her neck, and I had to look away before I did something stupid.Then, without warning, she dipped under again.I grinned, waiting for her to pop back up. She’s playing around. Probably getting a feel for the current before shifting into her mermaid form. I’d seen her do it before, and I was definitely not opposed to watching it

★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★I moved quickly, stuffing my things into my bag while Colton packed up the rest of our campsite. The moment I zipped it up, I felt the machine inside, still vibrating faintly, sending a strange sensation through my fingers.“We got everything?” Colton asked, glancing over as he folded the blanket we’d shared the night before.“Yeah,” I said, adjusting the weight on my shoulder. “You?”He gave a firm nod. “Let’s get moving.”Colton could have said I was crazy for taking someone’s device that might not be anything, but he didn’t. He was choosing to trust my instincts that’s part of what makes me happy. The hike down was fast—faster than I thought it would be. Maybe it was the adrenaline pumping through me or the fact that we had something real, something tangible that could explain what was poisoning the water. That Colton could use to make the sheriff listen, to warn the people. Colton walked ahead, leading the way through the trees as the sky brightened

★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★While abel examines the machine, i stayed closeby trying to figure out what was going through the older man’s head. Colton shifted beside me, stretching his arms before letting out a low sigh. “I gotta go kick-start my day,” he said, rubbing the back of his neck. “But keep me in the loop, alright?”I nodded. “Of course.”We stood there for a moment, neither of us moving. The morning air coming through the windows was cool against my skin, and the faint hum of the mysterious machine still echoed in my ears. Despite everything—despite the thing sitting on Abel’s kitchen table, despite the questions that were piling up in my head—my focus kept slipping to him.Colton.Standing in front of me, hands shoved in his pockets, golden eyes watching me like he wanted to say something but didn’t know how.Before I could second-guess it, I stepped forward and wrapped my arms around him in a hug.I felt his body tense in surprise. For a split second, I thought I’d mad

Resisting The Alpha Cowboy More Information
★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★It was buried.Like someone had wanted it to be.I’d been combing through articles for hours, the motions mechanical now, almost numb. My mind was on autopilot—just picking through keywords, cross-referencing names, digging into obscure land deals that didn’t make sense, tracking down vague, half-mentioned connections between people who seemed irrelevant at first glance. The rabbit holes I’d gone down had been endless, some of them leading nowhere. But I couldn’t stop. I had to find something. Anything besides what I found about the drug dealer. Still, I wanted more details. My eyes were aching, and my fingers were numb from tapping the keys. I was running on nothing but cold coffee and the burning need to dig deeper. I had spent the better part of the morning and afternoon chasing down leads that now felt pointless. But then… I found it.It was another old article, buried under thousands of newer headlines, hidden like someone had intentionally tucked i

▄︻デ══━一 COLTON HAYES💥 I stayed long enough to make sure they both ate. Ashley had come down minutes after I'd urged Samson to bathe and dress in something else. He didn't need my judgment and neither did she. Didn’t matter that it was just eggs, pancakes, and the last of the sausage from the freezer. I stood in that damn kitchen like a drill sergeant, arms folded, watching Samson poke at his plate like food was something foreign. Ashley sat across from him, silent, her eyes rimmed red but dry now. She wouldn’t meet my gaze. I didn’t ask her to.I didn’t ask them anything.I just waited, and eventually they started eating. Slowly. Quietly. But they ate.That was enough for now. They drank some juice and told me they'd be staying indoors for the day. Well, not Ashley. Catia was coming to take her to her place so she could be away from Samson.Once I was sure they wouldn’t go back to bed hungry, I stepped out and headed down the porch stairs. The air was already thick with humidity, t
Resisting The Alpha Cowboy A Helping Hand [1/2]
▄︻デ══━一 COLTON HAYES💥 The water ran hot over my shoulders, and for a while, I just stood there, letting it scald the edges of everything I didn’t want to think about. My hands braced against the tiled wall, breath slow, heavy. It didn’t do much to rinse away the ache in my chest—but it helped. Just a little.It was easy to smile around Vanessa, but away from her, my brain was starting to think again. I'd love to have my ability to think fucked out of me. When Vanessa and I have sex, I can only think about her. I do love just thinking about her. It's better than thinking about all the problems in my life. By the time I dried off, dressed, and placed my hat over damp curls, the morning had already fully settled in. Vanessa hadn’t moved from her spot in bed when I peeked into the room again—still buried in her research, sharp as ever, focused like she was stitching the world back together with a single thread. She didn’t even look up when I asked her if she'd need my truck to go into
Resisting The Alpha Cowboy Digging For More
★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★I barely noticed the time passing.The world had narrowed down to my laptop screen, the dull hum of its fan, and the occasional click of my nails against the keys. Morning light had crept in slowly through the window, shifting from gray to gold while I chased paper trails and public records down digital rabbit holes. Every tab I opened spun into another, and another—property deeds, business filings, court case summaries, suspicious shell companies that seemed to tie back to a single name again and again.Alina.She was careful. Calculated. Her name was rarely listed, but the fingerprints were there—metaphorically speaking. I was stitching together something ugly. Bigger than what Colton had suspected. It wasn't just a bad deal gone personal. She was tied into something far-reaching. And worse—she was good at hiding in plain sight. I didn’t have the full picture yet, but I had the edges. And the more I found, the more certain I became: this was more than r

★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★I woke up warm.Not just in the way that meant the blankets were doing their job—but in the way that made my chest ache. Like a fire had settled there overnight. Slow, steady, and kind.Colton's arm was wrapped around me, his hand resting just below my ribs, his body curled into mine like he always belonged there. My cheek was pressed against the solid muscle of his chest, and I could hear his heartbeat—slow, even, completely at ease.It made me want to cry. In a good way. Maybe. This must be the good thing about having a partner. You're never truly alone. And if you want to be alone, you can. Take a moment to yourself. It works if you have someone who understands. Do I suddenly believe love strengthens and fixes everything? No. Heck, who knows if our relationship would stand the test of time. Who knows how this might end? In an affair? God I hope not. If Colton suddenly decides he's actually found his Mrs right, I'll kill them both. I nestled closer t

▄︻デ══━一 COLTON HAYES💥 I must’ve misheard her. No way she just said—Vanessa narrowed her eyes like she could feel my doubt. “I’m in love with you,” she said again, firmer this time. “I am. And when you said you wanted more than casual... well, I want that too.”My heart damn near leapt out of my throat. My wolf—usually quiet and brooding—sank somewhere warm and content like he’d finally been fed after starving.She said she loves me.I stared at her, stunned into silence for maybe the first time in my entire life. Vanessa. The girl who ran from any emotional talk as if it were fire. Who flinched at the mentions of true love, side-eyed people talking about mates and marriage, ducked out of the room when things got too real—just said she loved me. Out loud. On purpose.And she hadn’t even looked away. She stood there, her chest rising and falling like she was bracing for something, arms crossed like she needed to hold herself together. But she was still standing, still meeting my eyes

★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★I could have gone to my bedroom to take this call, but I didn’t want to go that far.. I stopped in the hallway, just out of earshot. I’m not the type to run from my problems. Hell, I run right into danger, that’s just who I am. But I’m avoiding the main conversation with Colton. I want to have it. I want to talk about it. I want to say, yeah, I want more than casual with you, too. I want more, I love you. I don’t know how or when I fell for you, but it kind of just happened. However, I cannot throw my whole life away. Long distance won’t work for us.... i mean, fuck, why am i even thinking about this?I brought my eyes back to my phone.The number was unfamiliar, but I answered it anyway, partly because I needed a distraction and partly because a flicker of dread told me who it might be.“Hello?” I said cautiously.There was a pause. Then a shaky inhale.“Vanessa?” a voice I hadn’t heard in days, maybe weeks, not in person, not like this. But I knew it i
Resisting The Alpha Cowboy Can't Hide From It
▄︻デ══━一 COLTON HAYES💥 After a moment of watching the lake, each of us silently making a plan in our heads, we decided to return home.We didn’t say much on the walk back. Vanessa kept close, her steps quiet but fast to keep up with mine. The storm had left behind a world slick with mud and the chill of lingering rain. Trees dripped steadily, and the sky overhead was still a dull sheet of grey, hanging heavy like the grief inside me.By the time we stepped back into the house, I shrugged off my damp jacket and tossed it on a hook. Vanessa followed, tugging her sleeves down her wrists like she was trying to ground herself. The house was too quiet without the family. Too hollow. The air still smelled like breakfast and loss.“Coffee?” I offered, needing something to keep my hands busy.She nodded, and we moved into the kitchen. I prepped the machine in silence, only the gurgling hum of it filling the space between us.“I was thinking…” she said eventually, leaning on the counter, “we s

★。＼｜／。★VANESSA DAVIS★。／｜＼。★I arrived back at the farm—Colton’s house—just as the sky slipped further into gray.From the second I parked, I knew something was off. The driveway was clear. No voices floated from the porch. No creak of floorboards or clatter of kitchenware inside. It was empty.Too empty.I stepped out of the Jeep and onto the damp ground, the air thick with leftover moisture and the scent of wet wood. The storm had passed, but the rain hadn’t fully let go. It lingered in droplets that clung to the leaves and coated the windows like tears that didn’t know how to fall.Inside the house, the silence clawed at me.“Colton?” I called out, voice echoing just slightly. No response. My footsteps padded quietly over the wood floors as I walked from room to room, scanning for any sign of him.Nothing in the kitchen.Nothing in the living room, either of them.His phone wasn’t on the charger. His keys were gone.A slow panic started bubbling in my stomach.I checked the front p
