Scumbag Contract Husband, My Regretful Mate is Back Chapter 46
Hazel was sitting in her room, her mind wandering around and going through the events that have been happening in the past few days. She felt some kind of guilt for how harsh she had been to Rodrigo. After all, he hasn't done anything wrong but to be kind towards her. "Maybe I should be a little nicer," she murmured, as she unknowingly toyed and tugged her hair. A knock landed on her door bringing her out of her daze. She turned to see a blond lady, one of the staff poke her head in. "Miss, Alpha requests your presence at dinner."Hazel looked away, considering the invitation. It wouldn't hurt to attend, she thought. She smiled slightly, turning to meet the gaze of the messenger, "Yes, I'll be down."The lady's eye widened in shock, before she nodded closing the door. Hazel stood up, running her hands through her hair hoping it would calm her. "I'm just having dinner with him," she repeated, as if trying to reassure herself.Hazel walked out of her room at a slow pace. She went down

Two days after their meeting, Ryland met with the detective. His chest was twisted with anger over the slow progress in finding Hazel. "How far?" he asked, his hand running over his hair as he took a seat."Any news?" Ryland asked, trying to ignore the growing impatience of Kael. His wolf had grown more aggressive each passing day and it was becoming difficult to keep him under control. They both wanted Hazel back, and they wanted her back now.The officer opened his folder, pulling out a file. "It depends on what you call it," he said with a grin as he let out a puff of smoke.Ryland narrowed his eyes as he collected the file from him. He scanned through it—a list of names, and important information. He looked back at the detective, a question in his eyes. The detective stared, pleased with himself. "These are names of prominent trafficking lords; men we think might be involved in Hazel's disappearance."Ryland felt a great wave of relief wash over him. Finally, a breakthrough. The

Hazel combed her hair, getting ready for dinner. A smile slowly crept onto her face as she thought about Rodrigo. It had been four days since they had a picnic together, and she had started looking forward to seeing him more often. Even though she was careful around him, not forgetting her past and experiences, yet she was helpless with the way she now felt by just thinking of him. She wasn't sure what to call it, but one thing is certain, Hazel realised how warmth and comfortable she feels being around Alpha Rodrigo, plus she finds herself longing to see him more frequently. To her, Rodrigo was not the cruel man she thought him to be. He was actually fun and sweet to be with.Placing the hair brush on the counter, she made her way to the dining area, expecting to see him. But for the first time, he wasn't at the diner, nor was he anywhere visible. Hazel quietly searched around hoping he'd appear, but he still didn't show up. She felt her heart sink, her appetite suddenly vanishing

The sunlight slowly made its way past the thick curtains, waking Hazel up. She turned to check the time, her mouth making way for a yawn. But it was cut short as she remembered Rodrigo's lips almost touching hers. She sat up straight, feeling her face grow hot.Memories of the previous night flooded her mind. She recalled how awkward it was when she turned away to avoid the kiss. Rodrigo had apologized, and she had forced a weird smile onto her face.Despite the mixed feelings, Hazel was all warm and fuzzy inside, remembering how the almighty Rodrigo had respected her words and did not attempt to push further. She giggled to herself, but stopped when she heard someone approaching her door. A knock came and she lifted the blanket off her body, walking towards the door. "Who is it?" Hazel asked, her hands about to make contact with the door knob. But the door was pushed from the other side and Rodrigo walked in. Hazel stepped back as she recalled what almost happened between them."Goo

Rodrigo got down, helping Hazel out of the limo, his touch sending sparks through her. They walked into the five-star restaurant, and Hazel observed that the place was completely empty.She was taken aback looking at the expensive decoration, while Rodrigo said a few things to the lady assigned to attend to them. She led them to a table afterwards. Having settled down, Hazel turned to Rodrigo, and he gave her a lop-sided grin"Um, I noticed the restaurant appears empty, do they not receive patronage?" Hazel asked innocently, her eyes still scanning the surroundings.Rodrigo looked up from the menu, pride, and amusement in his eyes. "Well, probably because the restaurant was booked for only two—you and I."Hazel's eyes fluttered wide. "What? Why?" she asked in a low voice coming closer.Rodrigo let out a chuckle at her reaction. "It is Okay. I just wanted us to have a bit of privacy," he lied, eyes flicking from her face to the menu. The reality being that he could not afford to be see

"Take him with us," Ryland said, nodding towards the unconscious body of Darius. "Wake him up and find out who bought Hazel or what happened. Make him talk no matter what it takes," Ryland issued, checking his watch. "Yes, Alpha," Caleb said, dragging Darius' body out of his office. Time was ticking, Ryland thought as he imagined what Hazel could be going through. ***The ride back to the pack was long and suffocating. Hazel danced through every corner of Ryland’s mind. The car finally came to a stop, and Caleb with the help of a guard lifted Darius’ still unconscious body, heading to the torture room. Ryland walked towards the opposite direction.He stepped into his room, shutting the door. A breath of exhaustion left his lips. But the peace only lasted for not so long as he got startled by an all too familiar voice. "Hey Love," Serena cooed. Ryland mentally cursed himself for not detecting her presence earlier. He turned to see Serena sitting on the edge of his bed. She had g

Rodrigo tried to reach for Hazel, but she stepped back. His face fell, and he realized she was turning to her guarded self. "Can we head home?" she requested again, crossing her arms.Rodrigo opened his mouth to persuade her, but her face told him she had heard enough. Accepting defeat, he nodded, "Alright, I will go get the car ready." Hazel walked past him, her eyes still avoiding him. He pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration, and followed her down the stairs. As Hazel sat down, her mind was clustered with emotions. She had been so happy today, but now she wasn't even sure anymore. Her mind went over the things he had just said and she wondered if there was any truth in it. Footsteps approached her and Hazel turned to see the hostess. "Mr. Whale asked me to let you know that the car is ready," she announced, her voice honey sweet. Hazel nodded and walked out of the restaurant, her gaze meeting Rodrigo's by the limo.She looked away, getting into the car. Rodrigo followed

Rodrigo gently opened his eyes as he felt something move beside him. Letting out a yawn, he looked around. But paused when he remembered he was in Hazel's room, and gazed down to find her asleep in his arms. Leo growled at how innocent and peaceful she looked while asleep. Pictures of what transpired the previous night flashed through his mind, and Rodrigo grinned as he recalled that Hazel had finally given her consent to the contract in a way he did not even expect.Hazel woke up, and blinked severally as a means to fight off the sleep that refused to release her. "Good morning," Rodrigo greeted, his voice thicker than usual."Morning," Hazel said, then her lips stretched into a weak smile. "How are you? I hope you feel better?" Rodrigo did not bat an eyelid while asking, and he only earned a little chuckle from Hazel."I guess I am fine," she said, staring up at him. "Just a little headache.""That is probably because of the crying," Rodrigo told her, his eyes locked onto hers. Th

Hazel let out a groan, trying to open her eyes. For some reason, her lids felt glued, her head heavy. She tried to lift her hand up but it seemed stuck. She fought against the binds, pausing when she realised her predicaments. "Anyone?" She struggled to say, her voice low and hoarse. Her throat felt dry and itchy and she swallowed saliva trying to remedy the feeling, but it did nothing. "Anyone! Someone please help!" She repeated, struggling to get free from the binds. Her head hurt with each move she made, but she ignored it. "Eleanor?" she yelled, forcing her eyes open."Please help me," she whispers, scanning her surroundings. She was tied to a wooden chair, her hands bruised.A tear slid down her face and Hazel bit her lips, trying her best to prevent a sob. She lifted her head, staring at the room she was left in. The lighting was dim and she could barely see anything. "Goddess, please help me," she silently prayed, taking in deep breaths. The door pulled open and Hazel sna

Rodrigo glanced at his watch, running a hand through his hair. It was almost a day and he had heard nothing from Serena. Clenching his jaw, his hand coursed through his hair again, a habit of his whenever he was frustrated. With a hard glare at his phone which was on the desk, he picked it up and dialed her number the second time, but like before, it accelerated to voicemail. Rodrigo tried repeatedly, but the results were the same at each try. An annoying growl left his lips and without giving it a thought, he crashed the phone against the wall. Nevertheless, his anger refused to be appeased as he balled his fist. With his eyes blazing red in fury, the table was seen at a blink tearing apart, and sending everything on it crashing down. Just then, Thorne made his way in and Rodrigo glared at him, his jaw still clenched so hard that it could snap. "What do you want?!" Rodrigo muttered, forcing the words out of his teeth. "Your tantrums were loud enough to summon me," was Thorne's r

"Baby?" Serena mewed like a cat, her voice loud yet shaky. She waved her hand in front of his eyes to make sure the sleeping pills were effective. Slowly she got out of bed, rushed towards her bag, and they took out the layers of napkin while rubbing her sweaty hands against her lingerie.Serena pulled out the bottle Rodrigo had given her. She pierced it, and drew out the green colored liquid, cringing at the sight of it. "This looks concerning," she whispered to herself, staring at the syringe. Ryland made a sound and she froze in fear. Slowly she turned back to find him still asleep. "Goddess help me," she muttered, walking towards him with the poison in hand. She took his hands as she placed the syringe on his shoulder. Her heart pounded and just as she was about to inject the substance into him, his eyes peeled open. "What are you doing?" Ryland's voice came sharp and unexpected, making Serena freeze in shock. Her whole body trembled as she slowly stared to see a pair of glow

Serena sat in Ryland's room in dark purple lingerie. It had been so long since he had touched her and she found herself cringing at the thought. She sat on his bed passing a hand through her hair. Even though she hated to admit it, she was very nervous and anyone could see it with how sweaty she was. Letting out a groan, Serena went through her bag, pulling out her napkin. She dabbed her face and neck with it until she felt dry enough.Shoving the used napkin in the bag she took her phone staring at the text she had sent him. "Still no reply," she muttered, becoming impatient. She looked around his room trying to snoop for anything that could help Rodrigo, but found nothing; most of his drawers were either empty or locked. She let out a frustrated sigh, falling back on the bed. "Should I call?" She asked herself as she picked up her phone, but she thought against it and dropped it. A yawn left her lips and soon she fell asleep. The sound of the door being pushed open woke Serena u

Ryland stared at the elders in front of him. They had decided to meet up after Adam's death and this was one of the few times he had been free since then. Unfortunately, Adam's death still had no murderer tied to it. Even though he did play a vital role in the pack, a part of Ryland was happy he was dead. The plus side being that he didn't even have to do it. Ryland fought a yawn, staring straight ahead. He checked his wrist watch, mentally groaning when he found out that they had barely made it through half the time. The buzzing of his phone rang through the hall, and this made the elders halt in their discussion as they turned to stare at him. Some gave him bitter glares, but swallowed their words, not brave enough to say a word. Ryland apologized to them before picking his phone from the table. He had no intention of receiving the call, but seeing the contact name, he was shocked. Aaron?With that he got up, "You can go on without me," he said to the elder beside him, walking

"What are you doing?" Rodrigo yelled, taking hold of Hazel's arm. She glared at him, yanking it out of his grip. "I need to talk to you, and I'm tired of standing," she replied back, her chest heaving. Rodrigo studied her for a while. It was clear this had nothing to do with wanting to talk to him. She took a deep breath, and glanced at his door and his heart skipped a beat as he waited for her to try to push it open. But to his surprise, Hazel turned back to face him. "What's in there that you don't want me to see?" She asked, staring at him with squinted eyes.Rodrigo's eyes glared wide as he searched his brain for what to say. For some reason, lying to her felt difficult. "You know what? I don't even care," she snapped, turning away. Rodrigo stared at Hazel's retreating figure in confusion. Something about her seemed uneasy. Her eyes looked different from before and Rodrigo felt a chill run down his spine. "It's probably the baby," Leo muttered, and Rodrigo nodded in agreemen

"You what?" Serena yelled, and Rodrigo squeezed his eyes shut, and remained calm. "You want me to kill someone!!” she repeated in a frustrated tone. Rodrigo rolled his eyes at her childishness. "Yes, Serena. I want you to kill someone. You killed your uncle. This should be easier," he said, running a hand through his hair. The low growl on the other side of the phone told him that his words had gotten to her, but he had no sympathy to share. "Yea. He was my uncle, but he wasn't all that important. Ryland is an Alpha, and one of the strongest and richest at that. I'm going to get caught," she whispered. "Why the hell are you lecturing me? Do what I want you to do," Rodrigo yelled back. Images of him lying dead on the dirt road filled his mind, and it only made him more anxious. "Look, this is all you have to do. If you kill him no one stands in our way and you'll become my Luna," Rodrigo tried to convince her. "He really isn't in your way. He just wants his slut back," Serena mu

Rodrigo peeled his eyes open sitting up. He took a look at his surroundings, squinting his eyes. "Where am I?" He muttered to himself, trying to ignore the growing migraine. Slowly he stood on his feet and he could barely see.How did I get to this place? He took off his suit jacket and threw it. Rodrigo tried to find his way back to the pack, taking the normal route, but after walking for a few minutes it dawned on him that he was going in circles. The fog made it hard for him to see, and his patience began wearing thin. He stuffed his hands into his pocket in search of his phone, but found nothing. "Shu! Am I lost, or what?" He muttered, running his hand down his face as if clearing his views well.A low growl resounded in the air and Rodrigo paused, scanning around him. A sense of deja vu hit him, but he had no idea why. "Who's there?" He asked, his voice loud and firm, but no response came. "I can hear you; whoever you are, you had better come out before it's too late," he or

Hazel turned to see Aaron standing a few paces in front of her. She could barely make out his face in the dim light, but his eyes shone brightly. "What are you looking for?" Aaron asked Hazel, stepping closer. "You were banned from stepping out." “I am quite aware of my situation. Thank you,"Hazel retorted, anger evident in her tone because of his words. She needed him to talk to Ryland not to tell her what she already knew. "Yea, you're right. I'm sorry,” Aaron apologized, his head slightly bowed at the same time. They stared at each other for a while before Hazel looked away trying to remember why she was there. "Yes-" Hazel tried to say something, but was cut off. "I've got something for you," Aaron said, staring at Hazel. "It seems you were about to say something," he pointed out, but Hazel shook her head wanting to hear what he had to say. "Are you sure?" He asked and she nodded "Alright. Ehm, Alpha Ryland asked me to give you something," he said and her eyes lit up. "O
