Tristan’s POV.My heart sank in my chest seeing Zoey’s reaction. It is hard to explain as for me I never imagined that I would care about Zoey’s feelings, but here I am panicking about what she thinks about me. During the last three days I was depressed. I even started to regret that I marked Zoey. There is a continuous battle inside my mind about Zoey’s status.A part of me tells me to accept her rejection. To let her go and end this madness once for good, but that part is smaller and smaller every day I spend around Zoey. All the year I ignored her and our bond was washed out the moment I allowed her to return in my life. With every single tingle I felt, with every single spark that excited me I became addicted to her.This woman is my nightmare.I hate myself for longing for her. I hate myself for letting down my guard around her and letting her mess with my mind. This is not what I signed for. All I wanted was a pup, but I ended in this position, marking her and avoiding her for
Author's POV.“I am sorry, Alpha” the doctor said and Tristan closed his eyes and leaned his head back, barely refraining from screaming. His unborn pup was dead, and it was him who induced the mother of his pup into fatal pain. If Zoey survives he won’t be able to look into her eyes again.“ We need to bring her to the hospital,” the doctor continued. Here all I can do it to ask you if you want, because I know that you and Zoey Carter aren't on the best of terms right now, but if you want to save her and save the pup I need some blood from you. This will keep her alive and the pup too, until we reach the hospital.”“What did you say?” Tristan asks, perplexed.“If you don’t want to, I understand but I can’t guarantee that she will survive on the way back.” but he didn’t finish what he was saying because Tristan commanded him.“Take all my blood if it is needed, but save my pup. And doctor, do everything in your power to save her too. You know who she is and what she is to me, so trea
“How is she?” Tristan asks the doctor when he exits the ward where Zoey was sent after she received medical care.“We succeeded in making her shift back into human form, Alpha, but she is sleeping right now. We induced her into a false coma so she will rest properly. I am not going to lie to you. This doesn’t look good at all. The pup is still at risk.”“What about her?” Tristan asks. “Her life is still at risk?” and his heart was beating salwar and slower while he was waiting for an answer.“Yes.” and the doctor looked at him in disbelief. “I know that is not my business, Alpha, but why do you want her now? In the past you acted differently.” but Tristan raised his gaze and with a killing look he said.“You are right, it is not your business.” and he wanted to enter Zoey’s ward but the doctor asked him back.“If I am going to do the impossible to save her, I need to know that this is a long term decision. I am not going to fight for her if you are going to hurt her again. It's a loss
Next day in Zoey’s hospital ward Tristan was sitting next to her bed, on a chair and he was watching Zoey when the door suddenly opened and Nana showed up in a wheelchair, helped by a nurse.“I am taking it from here, thank you sweetie” Nana said to the nurse and motioned her to leave.Tristan got up, as if he was a child who got caught with his hand in the jar.“Nana, what are you doing here? You need to rest” he said in a soft voice , trying to help her to come closer, because he thought that she was here to see Zoey, but Nana squinted her eyes at him, and slapped his arm, she said.“You scoundrel!” and she was so pissed off that Tristan thought that she was going to have a heart attack. “Your Alpha balls are so tiny that you are afraid to face me? I asked you to come visit me!” she said, almost growling at him.Tristan avoided her because he knew that she would get angry, and even if he would kill whoever dares to talk to him like this, Nana is special so he let her act the way she
“But you can’t claim me!” Zoey yells in Tristan’s face after she succeeds to escape from his kisses.At the beginning she was lost in that sweet sensation, but when he started to caress her fragile body, she remembered AGAIN, everything he did.Julie Klausner once said that a woman’s memory is reliable at the risk of sounding like some sort of gorgeous two-headed monster with voices of Dave Barry and Erma Bombeck, and she thinks that women, like elephants , remember absolutely EVERYTHING!So don’t think that Zoey is holding grudges, beyond this is too much to forget and forgive relating to Tristan. And the last episode with Dana , probably pushed her over the edge.“Too late, princes, I already did it!” Tristan mocks her and Zoey looks at him in disbelief.“I rejected you, jerk!” and pushing him away she points her index finger in his direction , and with squinted eyes tells him.“Look, jerk…” and seeing that Tristan lifted an eyebrow when she said that, she composed herself like a go
“You are a pig” Zoey whispered when Tristan finished ravaging her and let her breath.“Actually I am a wolf” he mocked her and got out of bed, straightening his clothes. “But for you I can be a pig too, you know he is known as the champion in terms of orga sms. We will train every day until I will be a real pig if this is what you dream about.”“YOU!” Zoey said , completely pissed off by his cocky attitude “Who said that I want to be with you? I am pregnant now, so there is no need for us to be together!” and she got out of the bed too, under the horrified gaze of Tristan.“Where are you going?” he asks her and pulls her back in his arms.“I am not living here, Tristan. Stop with this game. It isn’t funny at all. I will return to my room.” and she tried to open the adjoining door but it was blocked.“Are you kidding me?” Zoey asked in disbelief.“No, I am serious. You will live here.”“Tristan Mayer…” Zoey started, but his face was dark seeing her so stubborn, so she closed her mouth.
Next day in the morning everyone was in the dining room waiting for breakfast to be served when Tristan came with Zoey. They stepped inside the room as if nothing happened, and Tristan walked to his seat, while Zoey looked around for a seat.Nana motioned to her to come near her seat and Zoey had no problem with that. In the end, the last time she ate here she was twelve years old. Now after all these years she is not comfortable with being here. But before she could sit down, in alert steps Tristan stood up and came to her.“What the hell are you doing?” he asked her, a little bit pissed off. All night he watched her sleeping, thinking that this was a dream. They did nothing but sleep, or better said Zoey slept but for Tristan it was the most important moment of his life. Between him and Zoey there's finally peace.“I am not allowed to be here?” Zoey asked and her heart stopped, thinking that he pranked her. He didn’t accept her. Her eyes filled with tears and everyone at the table w
But while Tristan was mad at himself for everything he did in the past, as if right now he just received the biggest slap of his life, in another corner of the pack, in the former’s Beta house, Mason came in like a hurricane.“What’s with that face, Mas?” Dana asked, seeing his damned pissed off, but he pushed her away and took a seat close to his father.“That jerk claimed her!” Mason growled out of nowhere.“He did what?” Dana asked in horror, but her reaction made him even more furious.“What’s with that face, Dana? This is all your fault! You had one simple thing to do! To open your legs and let him fu ck you. To make him claim you as his chosen mate and you what did you do? You who red around ruining everything.”“And now is it my fault?” Dana asked furious, and pointing her finger at Mason said.“We knew that these two might be mates a long time ago, because he was very protective of her. Just like that stupid of Nicholas at Rose Mayer. We watched them and I was right when I tol
