HAILEE.As the door closed behind Sebastian, I felt a mixture of relief and sorrow wash over me. My heart pounded in my chest, my breaths coming in ragged gasps as I tried to steady myself. The weight of my emotions threatened to crush me, but I knew I had to push forward.I quickly composed myself and wiped away the tears that had escaped down my cheeks. With trembling hands, I approached my training team, who were eagerly awaiting their instructions for the day. Their excited chatter filled the air, but as I walked towards them, their smiles faded, replaced by concern."Something wrong, Alpha?" Sarah, one of the team members, asked softly, her voice laced with worry.I took a deep breath, trying to find the strength to speak. "Today, there will be no training. Take the day off and rest," I managed to say, my voice wavering slightly.Confusion and surprise rippled through the group as they exchanged glances. "But Alpha, is everything alright?" Jacob, another team member, questioned,
HAILEE.I woke up to the harsh splash of cold water drenching my body, jolting me back to consciousness. The pain from my previous injuries seared through me, intensified by the icy shock. As I blinked away the water from my eyes, I saw Clara standing before me, a cruel smile etched on her face."You thought you could escape, didn't you?" she sneered, her voice dripping with malice. "Well, my dear Hailee, there's no running from me. I'm going to make you suffer until you beg for death."A surge of fear and anger coursed through my veins as I struggled against my restraints, futilely attempting to free myself from the bonds that held me. The searing pain of the silver burns on my skin intensified, a constant reminder of the torture that awaited me.Clara circled around me, her eyes glinting with sadistic pleasure. She reveled in my pain, relished in the power she held over me. The room echoed with my desperate cries, my pleas for mercy falling on deaf ears.The blows rained down upon m
SEBASTIAN. I couldn't bear the weight of her absence any longer. It had been one agonizing week since Hailee had gone missing, and each passing day only deepened the torment within me. My wolf was restless, pacing back and forth within the confines of my mind, a constant reminder of her absence. The pain of not knowing where she was or what had befallen her gnawed at my soul.The search team had scoured every inch of our territory, following every lead, questioning every rogue and informant. But there were no traces of her, no signs of her whereabouts. It was as if she had vanished into thin air. Clara, with her twisted mind and sinister intentions, suggested that Hailee might have returned to her pack, plotting an attack against us. But I refused to believe such a possibility. Hailee was not a vengeful person. She had a heart filled with compassion, even for those who had wronged her.Day after day, I would roam the vast expanse of our territory, calling out her name, desperately ho
HAILEE.As I sat strapped to the chair, my body bruised and battered, a glimmer of hope flickered within me. I noticed the silver knife that had been used to stab me lodged in the shoulder, and a surge of determination coursed through my veins. With a burst of adrenaline, I mustered every ounce of strength I had left.I contorted my body, reaching for the knife with my leg. The pain intensified with each movement, but I gritted my teeth, refusing to succumb to the agony. Finally, I managed to grasp the handle of the knife and skillfully flung it upward, catching it in mid-air. The metallic taste of desperation lingered on my lips as I used the knife to free myself from the restraints.With newfound freedom, I fought my way out of that wretched place, channeling all my rage and pain into every strike. Every blow landed with purpose, a testament to my will to survive. The men who had tormented me now felt the wrath of a woman fighting for her life.I ran as fast as my battered body woul
SEBASTIAN. As I carefully arranged Hailee's belongings in her bedside cupboard, a sense of urgency coursed through me. I couldn't bear the thought of leaving her side, but I needed to gather any information that might lead us to the culprits responsible for her torment.Leaving her room, I made my way to the search team, their weary faces reflecting the intensity of the task at hand. I approached them, my voice laced with determination as I sought answers."Has there been any progress in the investigation?" I asked, my tone firm yet tinged with an undercurrent of frustration. The members of the search team exchanged glances, their expressions a mix of weariness and determination.One of them stepped forward, his voice filled with regret. "We've been scouring the area tirelessly, but we haven't come across any substantial leads. It's as if they vanished without a trace."I clenched my fists, the frustration bubbling within me. "Someone must know something. I refuse to believe that the
As Hailee woke up in a state of fear and panic, her breathing ragged and her eyes wide with terror, Sebastian swiftly moved to her side, his voice gentle and soothing. He caressed her cheek, trying to calm the storm of emotions that ravaged her."It's okay, Hailee. You're safe now," he whispered, his voice filled with reassurance. "I'm here with you."Hailee clung to Sebastian, finding solace in his presence despite the pain she was undoubtedly experiencing. The trauma she had endured had left its mark, both physically and emotionally, but Sebastian's unwavering support provided her with a glimmer of hope.Just as their moment of tranquility began to settle, Clara walked into the room, her eyes fixed on Hailee with a glare that spoke of deep-rooted animosity. Tension crackled in the air, thickening the atmosphere and intensifying the unease that had settled between them.Sebastian's senses were heightened, acutely aware of the brewing conflict. He knew that something was amiss, but wi
HAILEE.As Sebastian left the room, a wave of relief washed over me, granting me a much-needed respite. I couldn't deny that his presence had an undeniable effect on me, his wolf's dominance intertwining with my own desires in a way that both intrigued and unnerved me. I needed space to think, to heal, and to reclaim my sense of self.Gazing out the window, I pondered the path that lay before me. My mind was consumed with thoughts of revenge against Clara and reclaiming my pack. It was clear that she was behind my abduction, orchestrating the torment and pain that I had endured. The fire within me burned fiercely, fueled by the determination to make her beg for mercy and face the consequences of her actions.But for now, I needed to focus on my own well-being. As I sat on the edge of the bed, I reached for the tray of food that Sebastian had arranged for me. The aroma of warm soup and freshly baked bread filled the air, comforting and enticing. I took small bites, savoring each spoonf
HAILEE.As I emerged from the garden, basking in the glow of the setting sun, the mischievous glint in my student's eyes caught my attention. They approached me with playful grins, their voices filled with laughter as they teased me about my supposed infatuation with the Alpha. I couldn't help but blush, my denial quick to slip from my lips."Oh come on, Hailee! We've seen the way you look at him," Sarah, one of my students, chimed in, unable to contain her laughter. "It's written all over your face!"I playfully rolled my eyes, shaking my head. "You're imagining things, Sarah. I assure you, there's nothing more than friendship between the Alpha and me."The students erupted in laughter, their teasing banter filling the air as we walked together, the joyous atmosphere enveloping us. It was refreshing to have these lighthearted moments, a temporary escape from the complexities that had engulfed my life.As the evening progressed, our laughter and chatter filled the air, weaving a tapes
HAILEE.A month went by,Hailee and Sebastian continued to feel the sorrow of not knowing where their baby was. Hailee was mentally as well as physically drained as a result of the restless nights and relentless crying. Sebastian was tortured by seeing her in anguish and felt unable to stop it.After another day of futile searching, Sebastian brought Hailee to their room one night. As she sobbed herself to sleep, he comforted her while holding her close. He resolved to do all in his power to locate his kid and bring him back safely after seeing her in such pain.Sebastian quietly slipped out of the room as Hailee slept to care to his responsibilities as the beta and keep the pack together during this trying time. The pack was feeling quite emotional since they had missed its alpha and beta. As Arlo's absence rumors and suspicions spread like wildfire, the pack members were tense and uneasy.Sebastian put forth a lot of effort, answering questions, providing assurances, and attempting to
HAILEE.Hailee and Sebastian sat across from one another at a gorgeously set table while the garden was bathed in the mellow glow of dusk. Arlo was sound asleep nearby. In sharp contrast to the turbulence they had both experienced, the environment was serene and tranquil.Sebastian wanted to make this dinner date ideal for Hailee, so he stared at her with a mixture of adoration and tenderness. He admitted, a faint smile teasing his lips, "I've missed occasions like these. "I always enjoyed being with you, despite the fact that we used to fight sometimes."His words warmed Hailee's heart, and she stretched across the table to grip his hand tenderly. She said, her voice quiet and honest, "I missed you too. Our time was so heavily consumed by the pack's duties, although.While nodding, Sebastian fixed his gaze on hers. He replied with a hesitant, "I'd like that," in his voice. And I want to express my regret one more for how I handled you when you first came to the pack. I made a mistake
After some weeks and few days had passed the hurt and rage Hailee felt didn't go away. She was aware that in order to solve the suffering she and the pack had through, she would have to face Dolph and Clara head-on. She summoned them over to the house and got ready for a challenging and emotional discussion.Hailee's eyes flashed with piety as Dolph and Clara approached her. She couldn't believe how blatantly they had broken her confidence.Hailee started by saying, "I trusted you both," her voice shaken from crying. "You were like a member of my family to me, and you betrayed my faith in the worst way ever."Dolph attempted to cut in, "Hailee, I-"Hailee interrupted him, "No, don't interrupt," her expression flashing with rage. "You are not entitled to an explanation. Nothing you say can make what you did acceptable.Hailee's heart briefly shook as Dolph asked for forgiveness, but she was aware that it wouldn't undo the harm they had caused.Dolph remarked with regret in his voice, "
HAILEE. Finally Hailee decided to tell Sebastian what she actually saw. Taking a deep breath to steady herself Hailee turn to face Sebastian as she said. "I saw Dolph making love to Clara your fiance".Sebastian His jaw clenched in rage as his expression darkened. He found it difficult to control the wave of feelings that overcame him, including betrayal, hurt, and protective inclinations toward Hailee.You saw them together, right? Sebastian questioned, his voice laced with skepticism, hoping there had been a miscommunication.Hailee nodded while her eyes started to cry up. She said, her voice shaking with pain and danger, "Yes, I saw them having an affair together."As Sebastian became aware of the severity of Hailee's suffering, his heart sunk. He comforted her by gently luring her into his arms where he held her close. He said softly, "I'm truly sorry you had to witness that," his voice full of regret.Hailee clutched to him as she sought comfort in his company. She cried out, "I
SEBASTIAN. Sebastian comforted the wailing infant by holding him in his arms. Hailee could hear her son crying from the other room even though she was busy doing pack job. She gave him and Arlo a quick glance as they came in and groaned with a mixture of weariness and worry.He has been crying nonstop. Hailee said, casting a weary smile towards Sebastian, "I guess he's hungry and tired.Sebastian agreed, realizing how difficult it may be to care for a cranky baby. He gently rocked Arlo in his arms and replied, "All right, I'll try to feed him."Hailee carried on with her responsibilities while Sebastian assumed over, certain that Arlo was in capable hands. But just as she focused on her job, she groaned in agony and cried out a little. "Ouch!"Sebastian gave her a worried glance. He was worried and said, "What happened?"Hailee said, massaging her tender breast. "He bit me," she said. "I believe he is hurting from teething,"Sebastian's expression alternated between astonishment and
SEBASTIAN Sebastian remained beneath the pouring rain with his head cocked back, feeling the icy droplets slide down his face. He didn't mind being wet because the rain appeared to reflect the anguish he was experiencing within. The burden of the most current details left him emotionally and physically weary and worn out.He was divided in his emotions, torn between his love for Hailee and the unresolved pain from their previous relationship. He couldn't fight the want to possess a child with her or the yearning to hold her by his side for the rest of his life. He had a strong feeling of desire for a family, with Hailee as his partner and a child to continue their history.He had no choice but to express his mind as he looked up at the moon. He said, a mixture of fury and emotion in his voice, "Moon goddess, you've made my life so difficult." "I want to be with her because I love her, but it's not that easy."Then he remembered his father, the previous Alpha, who had killed the secon
SEBASTIAN. An overwhelming sense of urgency overcame Sebastian as he left the hospital with the intention of returning later to check on Hailee.Raised shouts greeted him as soon as he entered the pack house. The atmosphere was tense as two maids engaged in a heated argument. Sebastian's gaze become averted, and his dominant tendencies emerged. His powerful presence attracted attention as he approached the situation.His voice boomed across the room, "Enough!" he yelled. "What does this mean?" you ask.The maids' argument abruptly came to an end as their terrified eyes widened. "Alpha, she started it!" one of them sputtered. She has been negligent and-"To stop her, Sebastian put out a hand. "Excuses are not what I desire to hear. This argumentation is inappropriate and ridiculous. I want everything to be in order since Hailee will be going back home. Get back to work right away to make sure it doesn't happen again.Sebastian's firm tone chastened the maids, who soon nodded. Knowing
HAILEE. Hailee's eyelids twitched open as the dawn light crept in from the hospital room curtain. She remembered the previous night's incidents, including the argument with Sebastian, the death of her child's father, and the falsehoods she had spoken to shield Dolph, and fear seized her heart.Always the calm alpha, Sebastian remained by her side as soon as he noticed how upset she was. With a soft yet strong voice, he told her, "Hailee, it's okay." "The baby is secure now, and you are too.Her gaze quickly landed on her stomach, but the bulge she had become familiar to was no longer there. She felt panicky until Sebastian assured her that the youngster was secure in his arms. As he laid their infant in her arms, Hailee's trepidation transformed into exhilarating relief as she cradled her kid for the very first time, tears flowing down her face.She was able to stutter "thank you," her voice strangled with emotion.Her face was kissed by Sebastian, who did so tenderly. "You and the
DOLPH The sun soon started to set and the sky was soon painted in a day glo. Dolph had just met with Clara and he was hurrying back to the Pack. He was very happy with the way that his mind had been cleared that evening after meeting with her. Everything all seemed so clear and he was so pleased with the way things had turned out ever since he had met Clara. She seemed to have the answers to all his problems. She was always there to support him in one way or another when he was feeling down or something like that. He was very happy that he had met her because each time he mindlinked her, telling her that they needed to meet, she left immediately and they would converge at their normal place where they talked about their problems, shared their feelings and ended up making love or making out. Dolph couldn't imagine a better way to live, coupled with the fact that she was his mate. Some other girl would have rejected him horribly and that would have been very bad but she had accepted h
