Willow

A distraction. He was trying to stop me from jumping. Dragging me in with his stupid questions. Of course I haven’t figured it out, I wouldn’t have asked him otherwise.

I edge forwards, holding on to the window frame as the broken glass slices the soles of my feet.

“Willow! Don’t test me.” The words come out in a low growl.

I glance back at his onyx eyes. Looking into the black holes that stare back at me. He was showing his anger. He wanted me to see it. A warning that if I do anything stupid, a punishment was coming my way. Being here was already punishment enough.

“Get your ass down, NOW!” His patience is running thin.

I turn in the window to face him properly. Purposely letting the glass pierce my feet. My warm blood slowly drips from my feet, spreading out all along the windowsill.

His eyes move down to my injured feet. I watch him shake his head as he steps to me. Grabbing my hips, he lifts me like I’m nothing more than a feather. Carrying me to the bed, he sits me

    ZaneShe is infuriating. If I hadn’t left the room, I may have done something that I would have spent my life regretting.I leave the door unlocked and walk away. If she wanted to run, she could try but I guarantee she won’t make it out of the house before I find her.“Going well?” Stevens asks with a raised brow as I head downstairs. He is sitting in the chair outside my office. “Are you waiting for me?”“There have been some requests made by the warriors.” He holds up a notebook. “Just want to run them past you.”He follows me into the office and starts to close the door. “Leave it open.” If Willow was going to try and make a run for it, I was going to make it as difficult as possible.“She really puts you in a bad mood, doesn’t she?” He smirks at me“It’s the attitude.”“I would never have guessed.” He laughs to himself. “She smashed a window.” I mutter, “and threatened to jump. She didn’t even react when the glass was cutting into her feet, and she was purposely standing on it.

    WillowShit. Fuck. Shit.I didn’t have much time. I didn’t even know if I would make it out of the house. I had to try. He left the door open. His mistake.I had nothing other than the clothes on my back and the bandages on my feet, but it doesn’t stop me.Keeping my eyes in front, I refuse to look back. It was clearly the reason I fell in the forest and I wasn’t making that mistake again.Jumping the final few steps, I land painfully on my feet and let out the tiniest whimper when I hear my name roared from upstairs.Making a beeline for the front door, I rip it open, feeling the rush of warm air. Wolves were scattered everywhere and my heart plummets. Somehow, I had forgotten about them. Still, I don’t stop, letting my feet pound the driveway as wolves charge after me.I could feel them, close on my heels. Centimetres away from locking their jaws around my ankles. Though not once do I hear a snap or a snarl. It takes a few more minutes to realise what they are doing. They aren’t ch

    WillowI don’t try to escape again, not yet anyway. I will, but I need to get my timings right. I barely had minutes and I needed to find a way to get out without the wolves tracking me.Each day Zane pushes a little more, trying to get answers from me. The silent treatment made him angry and he often stormed from the bedroom, locking the door behind him. Sometimes, in that moment of frustration, a smile would sneak on to my face because it was getting harder and harder for him to hide his anger.For an entire week he redressed my feet daily, carefully inspecting the wounds. Not once did I mutter a word of gratitude. I know I should, but does the man who is holding me captive deserve it?On the seventh day, he doesn’t rewrap my feet after inspecting them. He rises to his full height. “Put your shoes on.”“I prefer….”“I don’t care. Put your shoes on.”There was something different about his tone. Darker, more sinister. And if my stomach wasn’t already tying itself in knots, it certai

    Willow“I…” I swallow the lump in my throat as I pull at the door handle to the car. “I need to get out of here.”“Do you want to say….”“No.” My stomach was bubbling, my body trembling, the need to vomit slowly building inside of me as sweat formed on my skin. What did he expect me to do? Collect up all the body parts and say goodbye?They had been in hiding for a reason and they had still been found. Still been slaughtered after The Boss got what he wanted. He hadn't even waited for the debts to be paid.I tug again at the locked car. I needed to scream. To hit something until it no longer hurts. I needed to run.“Little wolf.” Zane speaks softly from behind me, his hands gripping my waist.“Get off!” I push his hands away, turning around to face him but he is still so close. Inches from me where I could still feel his warmth invading my space “You don’t know me. You don’t know what I want or need. You don’t have the right…..” “To what, show you the truth?” His dark voice seems to

    ZaneI wasn’t a hundred percent sure what happened. I saw movements out of the corner of my eye. The next thing I knew, Willow was hurling herself at Stevens. The car flipped. I was thrown through a window and skidded across the ground. Stevens ended up trapped by his seatbelt while hanging upside down and Willow took off, running right past me.It took a moment for my broken leg to crack back into place. Stevens had already freed himself and was making his way towards me when we split up to look for her.Following her cinnamon scent was easy.She had this illusion that she thought she could hide her scent. Not realising it was impossible to hide it from me.I found her in a wooded area, sveral miles out. Hiding behind a fallen tree, angry and crying. I was expecting her to put up a fight, but she didn’t, well not at first.The moment I picked her up and draped her over my shoulder, her fists flew at me from all angles. Pummeling me in the back over and over.When Stevens catches up w

    WillowIt was a joke right? Wanting to offer a place for my mum and brother. My mother was a human. It had taken years for my fathers pack to accept her. But they only did because my father was Alpha at the time. They didn't care for her once father was dead.Images from the cottage appear. I could still smell it. The deep rot of flesh. It lingered like it had seeped into my skin. They stood no chance. They probably didn’t even see it coming.Using the basin, I pull myself to my feet and catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror. My blonde hair was limp and greasy. My caramel eyes are dull, even my skin looks sickly. The manager from the auction would have a hissy fit if she saw me. 'No man will want you looking like you are homeless!'Quickly flicking on the shower, I let my aching body step under the hot water, still fully dressed. How did I ache so much when I had been asleep for two days.I stand there, letting the hot water drench me. Forcing my clothes to stick to my body as they

    WillowThe intensity of his stare grows as my heart runs rampant in my chest.“Just breathe.” I whisper to myself, just like I was back to being paraded around on stage.“Little wolf…” His voice is not so harsh. Nor so demanding. Still, I couldn’t bring myself to look at himI feel the warmth of his hand sliding around my wrist. A spurt of tingles ignited my skin where our flesh touched. I almost jerk away. What the hell was that?He doesn’t let go and as my eyes raise to meet his, I already find him staring directly at me. The onyx eyes were mesmerising, you really could fall into the depths of them.“Put some clothes on.” He mutters in the softer tone.“Why?” I was quite happy wrapped in a robe“You need air, so let's go for a walk.”“I didn’t say….”“You didn’t need to, little wolf. I see the way you look around. It’s the first time since being here that you have truly felt trapped. Get dressed and we will go for a walk.”“It’s late.”“Scared of the dark?” He muses.I shake my head

    Willow“So you can keep me hostage forever.” I whisper. Because that is exactly what will happen. You tell them your deepest darkest fears and they use that against you. They learn your weaknesses and use that against you. Everything can be used against you and I would make it as difficult as I possibly could.He forces me back at arms length, his fingers curled tightly around my biceps to the point he is pinching my skin. “I am not one of those bastards that ran the auction house.”I glance at his hands. There will be bruises there in a few minutes if he squeezes much more. My looks were something I had once cared about. Though it had felt like a lifetime had passed since then when in reality it wasn’t even a whole year. A bruise would have made me livid because it was just another sign to my fathers pack that I wasn’t a real wolf. I lost count of how much I spent on concealer when I started training. Permanently painting over my bruises when my body ached inside.Training stopped

    ZaneI leave Willow spread like a starfish on our bed. As she sleeps, a pleasing smile hovers on her lips. She doesn’t stir as I dress or even as I press my lips to her forehead. As I grab my jacket, my eyes roam over every inch of her. She was perfect, and I am annoyed that I have to leave, but this Clemins prick must be dealt with.Outside, Stevens hands me a card, “The address.”“Not too far from the auction house,” I mumble, giving it a once over.“It makes sense that he wants to keep an eye on the women, especially when he has a favourite.” He looks up at the house.“You will stand guard of our bedroom,” I instruct. “If she comes out, you will supervise her every movement. No one comes into the house but the omegas on duty, and you do not leave her for a single minute unless she is in the bedroom or bathroom.”“Of course.” He gestures to the car, “Greyson and a couple of others will accompany you.”I look over to the car. Greyson is sitting up front, his hands already on the ste

    Zane“You already…” She scowls, sitting up, “You already planned to kill him?”“The very second, he decided to speak to me as though I was one of his subjects. I don’t care for people that don’t respect other people’s positions.”Willow’s caramel eyes widen, and a tinge of pink coats her cheeks. She didn’t care much about my Alpha title either, and so far, my little wolf was the only one I would allow to get away with such disregard.“Shall we go home?” I ask as her head leans against my shoulder once more.“Yes.” Her body relaxes into mine. I knew Willow thought that she was responsible for his death, but I wanted her to understand that he was always going to die. That even if she told me to let go of him, I wouldn’t have.Twenty minutes into the journey, Willow’s head rests on my lap. Her eyes are closed, her lips are parted, and her heartbeat is quiet as she sleeps. I let out a groan. Harlow’s news was not something I wanted to hear, nor did I expect what he told me.‘Do you want t

    WillowAsh hurries me through the house with his hand pressed to my lower back and a concerned look on his face. I could recognise his expressions better than Zane’s. He taps my lower back, “Keep walking, don’t stop.”If anyone but him or Zane tried to do that, I would have smacked them, but I’m guessing Zane had explicitly requested that Ash keep a hand on me at all times.As we walk through the house, I see Greyson wave a couple of men forward. One steps in front of us, taking the lead, while the other joins at the rear, following us as we move. It made me feel like I had some kind of power and that I must be protected at all costs, but do I really need that much protection?If only Layla could see me now. I know she would find the whole situation hilarious. Before the end, even on the darkest days, she managed to keep so many of us focusing on the good things.I’m guided out of a different door than the one we walked through to enter the house. It leads to a familiar hallway, one

    Zane“Why would you do this?” Willow challenges Saskia.“Annabella,” she sneers. “Drives me up the fucking wall. I’m happy to see her squirm. You know she has caused a lot of issues for others, right, not just you?”There is a tiny smirk at the corners of Willow’s lips as Saskia sits in the empty chair. She folds her long legs over each other and smiles at my mate.“I admit, I was surprised to see you, but what you don’t know is that it was the best surprise.” She glances at me. “I shouldn’t have said what I said about her being a half-breed. I think I was just thrown by the situation, and it’s clear from your Beta that you are happy.”“I am.” I grin at her, wondering how Stevens managed to pull this off so quickly and get Saskia to set Harlow up. Whatever he did, it seemed like Saskia was more than happy to help.“What did you do?” Willow asks.“Left my underwear in Harlow’s bed and made sure an Omega saw me leaving his room. For it to have kicked off this quickly, I assume she went

    Hey everyone. I hope you are well.I just wanted to give a little update for those that don't follow me on socials.I have the rest of The Alpha's Obsession ready to go, however, I am currently holding back from uploading it due to the huge amount of piracy issues I have surrounding my other ongoing book. And I'm sure you will understand that I do not want to give these people the satisfaction of taking anymore of my hard earned work. I'm really sorry, I know you are expecting it, and trust me when I say, no one is more upset than I am. I enjoy telling stories and these pirates are taking that away from me.All I can say is that I will upload when this piracy business has been sorted.Take care Taylor West.*please feel free to follow me on socials to be kept up to date*

I don't like updating the book so infrequently, so the plan is to get this book finished and then have it all uploaded fairly quickly rather than less than a few chapters a week.I hope you all understand.Thank you

    Willow“Of course not.” Harlow frowns. “I can’t expect you to forget something that changed your life.”I step back from him. “So what do you want from me?”“I miss you.”“You don’t even know me anymore. This,” I gesture at my dress, “Isn’t me! The fancy shoes, everything you see, it’s all put on for this night. Because I, was looking for something.”“What are you looking for?” He asks curiously“It doesn’t matter.” I turn away from him and practically crash into Zane.“Are you okay?” Zane scowls“I want to leave.”“Will?” Harlow mutters from behind me“It was a mistake coming here.” I tell Zane. “All their fucking judgy eyes on me the entire time. Whispers spreading like wildfire.” I spin around to stare at Harlow. “Is that why you wanted me to come? To remind me of what I lost? To show everyone that I’m still here. The half wolf, half human abomination?”“It wasn’t like that, Will. I just wanted you to see that I am changing things.”I gesture to the garden. “This isn’t changing thi

    WillowFor a moment, I felt like I was back on that stage. All eyes on me, whispers running through the crowd. At least none of them were thinking about stroking their cocks.I pause to take a deep breath, reminding myself that Zane had told me we could leave at any point if it became too much. But now I am here, I want to prove a point. That I wasn't running scared anymore.“Are you good?” Zane whispers in my earI nod and take a step forward.“Then let's get a drink to steady those nerves.” He glances down to his hand where my nails are firmly embedded in his skin.“Sorry,” I whisper, uncurling my fingers. Little bloody crescents are quick to heal. He smiles at me and presses his lips to my cheek. In the corner, I spot Harlow staring at me. He is deep in conversation with another man that I don’t recognise but his eyes are fixated on me.At the bar, Zane orders me a glass of wine and though I wasn’t a drinker, I glug that thing like my life depended on it.Zane raises a brow at me,

    Zane“Do you think he is trying to win her over?” Steven’s asks as he hands me a black tie“It would be a fucking mistake. He knows it would start a war and he and his pack wouldn’t survive that.”“Whatever feelings Willow once had for him have long gone.” He tells me, “She is mated to you, not him.”“She’s spoken to you about him, hasn’t she?”“Briefly. You already know there was something between them in the past, long before you came into her life. All I am confirming is that she has no interest in going back to him.”I hear footsteps shuffle across the carpet upstairs. Bailey is first to appear. A massive grin on her face. She hurries down the stairs towards us and turns to admire her own work as Willow steps forward.The ruby red dress is a stark contrast to her creamy skin, but nevertheless, it is beautiful. The bodice is perfectly fitted to her curves, cradling her breasts beautifully. It nips in tight at the waist then turns into free flowing fabric that covers her legs.Willo
