Hailey's POV

The room was quiet, everyone stared at me and Dimitri. My heart was pounding loudly as all eyes watched us, waiting patiently to see what would happen between the shy, nerdy girl and the almighty co-captain of the basketball team… Dimitri, he is also the Alpha of the Red moon pack.

My eyes kept scanning the whole place until it landed on both my friends and roommates. Mia and Jessy. 

“You can do this girl.” They smiled at me which gave me more courage.

Dimitri’s deadly glare locked into mine as he walked straight to me, grabbing my arm roughly.  “So, this is what you’ve been doing? Cheating on me and flirting with Paxton?!” His voice was low but full of fury.

My breathing was caught in my throat as I shook my head, trying to find the words. “Dimitri, no! It’s not what you think. Paxton... Paxton isn’t my boyfriend! He only invited me to his party, nothing else...”

But Dimitri didn’t let me finish. He was already as violent as usual. “Do I look dumb to you?” He asked and I swear I could hear his heart beating faster from where I stood.

“I, Dimitri, Alpha of the Red Moon Pack, reject you, Hailey, as my mate.”

His words sliced through me like a blade, and I felt an instant sharp pain as the mate mark behind my ear burned before it vanished. My hands were trembling as I clutched at my neck, my eyes welling up with tears. The bond—our bond—was gone.

I felt like the world shattered around me. A cold numbness crept through my chest, followed by a sharp ache that tore at my heart. How could he reject me so easily?

 Every breath felt heavier, like I was suffocating under his rejection. I couldn't look up in shame as tears wailed down my cheeks. I'm going to be the talk of the school, everyone was there.

The mate bond had always been a part of me, a connection I thought was unbreakable. Now, without it, I felt exposed—vulnerable. My heart ached, not just from the loss, but from the cruel realization that I wasn’t enough for him. But I think I already expected that to happen a long time ago.

“Hailey, you're really daydreaming to think that I would stoop so low to be your Mate.” These have been his words over the tears which keep reminding me that I am alone.

“Why?” I whispered, my voice trembling. “Why would you do this?” I finally mustered the courage to talk.

He sneered at me, looking down with disgust. “I can’t be mated to a nerdy little flirt. You’re weak, Hailey. Stooping so low to mate a cheap thing has never been on my bucket list.”The venom in his tone stung, making my heart feel like it was shattering into a million pieces.

Just as his words crushed the last bit of hope inside me, Paxton stepped between us, glaring at Dimitri. “One more word from you, and I’ll have the guards throw you out of my party,” Paxton growled, his voice commanding and full of authority.

Dimitri faltered, stepping back, but the room was buzzing with whispers.

“Is she his girlfriend?” 

“Oh no! I pity the cheer queen.”

Paxton turned to me, his expression softening. “I, Paxton, Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack, accept you, Hailey, as my Luna.”

My eyes widened in shock. *What?* Did I hear that right? “Am I dreaming?” I muttered under my breath, unable to believe the words coming from him. I immediately feel my world coming back to normal, yes..he is the one my heart longs for.

Gasps and murmurs erupted from the crowd as everyone clapped and cheered, celebrating Paxton’s bold declaration. My head was spinning, trying to process everything that had just happened when a voice suddenly rang out.

“No!” The cheer queen from the volleyball team Nikki stormed forward, her face twisted in anger. “Paxton, I’m supposed to be your Luna! Not her! I’m your fated mate—we’re betrothed!” She said glaring at me with deadly eyes. She rushed out of the crowd and grabbed my hair, yanking it.

“How dare you steal my man away from me! You cheap slut! You're only meant to be in the gutters!” She yelled. Paxton grabbed her hands immediately and swung her off me. Nikki breathed heavily from where she stood.She glared at me, pure hatred burning in her eyes, but Paxton didn’t even flinch.

“Everyone! I have an announcement to make. From today, I will appoint Hailey as the new cheer queen of Kent’s University. No one goes against her.” He said with affirmation.

“You earned it girl!” Mia and Jessy shouted from the crowd. I could even digest what he just said. Imagine me a nerdy girl with no value in school and even any sports club now made the cheer queen of the volleyball team? I covered my mouth as tears rolled down my cheeks.

The girl gasped, her eyes widening in shock, but before she could say another word, Paxton swept me off my feet, his arms wrapped around me tightly. My breath caught in my throat as I looked up at him, completely taken by surprise.

He leaned down, his lips brushing against my ear as he whispered, “We still have some unfinished business, my lady. Why don’t I make you scream my name tonight?”

I felt my cheeks heat up instantly as I blushed, unable to stop the rush of emotions. Paxton carried me out of the hall effortlessly, leaving behind the stunned crowd, all I could hear was my name being cheered because no one goes against Nikki, the queen of Kent's university.

“I will make you pay for this!” Nikki yelled angrily. Her voice was laced with fury, but I couldn’t bring myself to care.

He carried me to a room, I guess he was really familiar with this place because he led the way with so much confidence like he knew every crook and cranny of the place. 

We got to a room, it was so beautiful and bigger than the room I knew.

He walked lustfully to me and unbuttoned his shirt revealing his broad chest tattoo with a cross. He looks super hot, I drooled over him. His body is so perfect with his broad and muscular chest.

I breathed heavily, Paxton grabbed my head closer and placed a deep kiss on my lips and my neck.

    THREEI watch the dress inch up my legs with every pull of his hand, baring more and more of me. The sight makes me giddy. It’s the only excuse for what slips out in response. “Should I call you Daddy, then?”He goes still. Just like that, he releases my dress and the fabric falls back to cover most of my thighs. Disappointment sours my stomach, but he’s not moving back. He skates his hand up my side barely brushing the curve of my breast before he grips my chin just tightly enough to hurt. “Is that what you want, Hailey?” He presses two fingers to my bottom lip and I open for him. “You want to call me Daddy while I do filthy things to you that you’ve only fantasized about.” He slips his fingers into my mouth, in and out, in and out, miming fucking. I watch him with wide eyes, but I don’t get a chance to decide if I like it or not before he clamps his remaining fingers tightly around my chin, his fingers almost deep enough to gag me.Paxton leans down and holds my gaze as his fingers

    FOUR Sun rays penetrated into my eyes directly, I felt my head ache alot. I was in Paxton's room- his bed!That was when I remembered what happened last night between me and that handsome stranger. His presence was comforting and unfamiliar. I got down from the bed and saw him standing on the mirror and wearing his shirts and pants. Look away immediately. He noticed my uneasiness and walked to me. “You enjoyed it last night, you saw everything…you don't have to look away now.” He said. My throat hitched and I swallowed hard. How did this happen? Paxton stirred. His voice, flirtatious as he draw closer to my ear, broke the silence. “Morning,” he murmured, he peeked my cheeks which send cold shivers down my spine.“Morning,” I replied softly, my mind still racing. What does this mean now?He grabbed my waist, running a hand through his dark curls. “Need a ride home?” he asked casually, his blue eyes locking onto mine.I blinked, caught off guard by how nonchalant he sounded, as if s

    FIVE I stood there like a statue while he walked to me. He was smiling brightly at me. “Hey, Hailey! Thanks for coming!” Paxton called out, he bounced the ball toward the basketball court with his friends. I felt a flutter in my chest, a mix of excitement and nerves. He winked at me, and for a moment, I really want to keep seeing him again and again. “Awwn! He’s such a lover boy!” Jessy gushed, her eyes sparkling with admiration as she nudged me playfully. “C’mon, guys, let’s go sit over there,” Mia suggested, her voice bubbling with enthusiasm. We found seats on the bleachers, the old wood creaking beneath us, we sat down and watched the game. “Do you think Paxton will win again?” I heard one of the girls whisper, and I caught myself biting my lip, trying to focus on anything but their voice were so loud. “Yes! He’s so cute! Only his cuteness and smartness will make him win. He is a God!” another girl exclaimed, and a part of me felt jealous at their ease in gushing over him

    Hailey's POVI took a quick shower and dressed up. Standing in front of the mirror, I barely recognized myself. The dress hugged me in all the right places, and my hair was done in a ponytail with ribbons, giving me a youthful glow. "Perfect!" Jessy and Mia both smiled at me. We left around nine o’clock. The party venue was set in the woods, at the infamous fire pit. As we approached, the flickering flames cast an orange glow over the crowd. The air was thick with the scent of burning wood and the sound of laughter, cheers, and loud music. It was just a tent-like cabin made with words from the 1980s and since our school has been for ages, it was made for students in those days and now was slightly refurbished for the new generation students to use. Like us... At the center of the pit, was a huge burning fire. Everywhere was beautiful and noisy. The fire pit was surrounded by students. Boys and girls danced, drank, and flirted with each other, while others threw beer cans and acte

I hesitated, feeling the weight of his gaze. The memory of last night still lingered, and despite everything, I nodded. “Yes, I did.” I hated that I couldn’t deny it. I don't have a choice!“Good,” he said, his voice thick with satisfaction. “Let’s do it again. One more time, and I promise, I’ll leave you alone.”Panic flared in my chest. I swallowed hard, trying to muster the strength to refuse. “No, Paxton. This was a mistake.” My voice wavered, betraying the conflict I felt inside. The words weren’t as strong as I wanted them to be.“I can't. Those girls drooling over you would definitely kill me, including Nikki.” I swallowed hard.He raised an eyebrow, his smirk deepening. “You’re worried about Nikki, aren’t you? About the other

That was, until Jessy’s loud voice jolted me out of my dreams, making my heart leap out of my chest.“Hailey! Hailey! Wake up! I think I saw someone that looks exactly like Paxton in a ridiculously luxurious car waiting out front!” Jessy screamed.My eyes shot open as I bolted upright in bed. “What? Paxton?!” My heart pounded faster than it should have, and I felt a wave of anxiety rush over me. Still dressed in my pink Barbie pajamas, I stumbled to the window and looked down.And there he was. Paxton. Sitting in a sleek black car with his usual smirk. His eyes locked with mine, and instantly, I felt that stupid flutter in my chest again. Ugh, why does this keep happening? Why does my heart feel like it's about to leap out of my body every time he's around? Seriously, someone tell me what the heck is wrong with me!“Oh no, Jessy. What did I do?” I muttered,

    Hailey's POVThe drive to school was thick with silence. I stared out the window, my arms crossed tightly against my chest, feeling Paxton’s presence but refusing to acknowledge it. Every time I glanced at him from the corner of my eye, I caught his lips twitching, like he wanted to say something, but didn’t.I wasn’t ready to hear anything from him, not after last night.When we pulled up to the school, I grabbed the door handle before the car had fully stopped. “Thanks,” I mumbled, stepping out quickly. Before I could take two steps, chaos hit. The flashing lights of a thousand cameras went off like fireworks, blinding me. A wave of murmurs swept through the students.“Is that Hailey with Paxton?!” “No way! Did they come to school together?” “Nikki’s gonna lose it!”My breath hitched, and my chest tightened. The crowd began pressing in, and I could feel myself panicking. I'm allergic to too much crowding.Just when I thought I’d be swallowed by the attention, Paxton’s arm slid aroun

    Hailey's POV“Who amongst you did this?!” Jessy’s voice cut through the laughter like a knife, and an awkward silence fell over the classroom. Every pair of eyes darted between me and Nikki, who leaned back against her desk with an air of smugness. I could feel the weight of their gazes, and I was done with being the butt of their jokes.I marched over to Nikki, my heart pounding in my chest. “What’s gonna happen now?” someone whispered, but I didn’t care. “Nikki! How dare you picture me at the party without my consent?” I spat, my voice steady despite the turmoil inside.Nikki laughed, a high-pitched sound that made my skin crawl. “And who are you? A God? Or a poor scholar?” Her friends joined in, cackling like hyenas.“Now you listen to me, you jealous freak! It’s not entirely my fault that your beloved betrothed rejected you! You should get over your rejection already and move on. Crazy slut!” I couldn’t believe the words that poured out of my mouth. Where the hell did I get this

    Hailey's POVI waited for the trumpet, my nerves on edge. Of course, they chose Nikki for me. Out of everyone, it had to be her. Great, just great. I caught Paxton and Dimitri glaring at each other again. Those two were like cats and dogs—one glare away from a full-on brawl. I rolled my eyes. Boys.Then, the trumpet blasted through the clearing, and everyone charged into the woods. I took a deep breath. Sure, I’m a werewolf, but these dense, shadowy woods still sent a shiver down my spine. It's creepy in here...plus, I’m stuck with Nikki, who wasn’t even trying to walk at my pace.“Hold on, Nikki. We’re supposed to stick together, remember?” I called, trying to match her pace.She whipped her head around with a look of utter disgust. “Oh, please! You can run if you want. There are, like, a million mosquitoes here, and I am *not* about to be their snack!”I rolled my eyes and jogged to catch up, trying to ignore her ‘princess’ attitude. I started spotting treasures, though, tucked unde

    Hailey's POVLos Angeles's forest was everything we’d hoped—towering trees arched above us, shielding us from the sun as a gentle breeze cooled the air. The bus doors swung open, and everyone flooded out, stretching and yawning. Even though excitement buzzed around, exhaustion from the jet lag weighed heavy on us.I barely had a moment to breathe before Paxton appeared at my side, holding out a bottle of water and a handkerchief. “Here,” he offered with a gentle smile, dabbing my forehead despite my attempts to wave him off. “I’m fine, really—” I started, but he just chuckled and continued.I caught Dimitri’s gaze from across the clearing, his jaw tense, eyes hardening as he watched Paxton. I quickly looked away, pretending not to notice. Around us, students scattered, taking in the scenery. My heart sank as I spotted Jessy and Mia strolling far off with their teams. I missed them already; nothing ever felt right without them by my side. But it wasn’t really their fault.The lecturer

She grabbed the girl’s hand.“Sorry, but what’s the uproar for? Did you guys win a lottery to the states?” Mia asked, a teasing lilt in her voice.

    Hailey's POVI couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Dimitri had thrown a flower in the air, caught it with ease, then dropped down on one knee with a smile that tried to be charming but only made my stomach churn. My face flushed hot as I saw the other boys cheering him on. What was he doing?I scanned the area, panic bubbling up inside me. "Are you out of your mind?" I hissed at him. "What the heck do you think you're doing?""Hailey, please," he said, eyes glistening with what I guessed was supposed to be sincerity. "I’m sorry for everything. Please… give me another chance. I’ll treat you right this time, I swear."My eyes widened, and the humiliation burned even hotter. He was acting like we’d been some fairytale couple instead of a mismatched disaster. "Dimitri, we’re over," I said firmly, but before I could step away, he grabbed me, pulling me in for a desperate hug, pressing his lips to my neck. "Please," he whispered, his voice cracking, "please."The crowd erupted into chants,

    **Hailey's POV:**Paxton took me to the shopping mall after the incident. We picked out all sorts of clothes—dresses, tops, even some more casual things like sneakers. He insisted we stock up on provisions too: cereals, milk, and even Golden Morn, which he said reminded him of his childhood. It felt... surreal. Like, this wasn’t just another day. It felt special.When he dropped me off in front of my house, I barely had time to process everything before Jessy came rushing toward me. "Oh my goodness! Look at how stunning you look in your new dress!" Jessy exclaimed, practically bouncing on her feet as her eyes roved over me, taking in every detail. I could feel her excitement radiating, and it was contagious. A small smile tugged at my lips as I smoothed my hands over the fabric of the dress."All thanks to Nikki because we now have clothes and provisions for ourselves!" Mia chimed in, appearing beside Jessy with a playful glint in her eyes, her laughter echoing through the hallway.

    **Hailey’s POV**After freshening up, Paxton and I strolled to the other side of the park. The sun was setting, casting a golden hue over the adventure park as we made our way to the swings. Paxton, of course, insisted on paying for everything—tickets, drinks, and all the fun activities we’d done so far. The swing ride had been exhilarating. With the wind whipping through my hair, I actually felt... carefree for the first time in days. We even tried horse riding, laughing and teasing each other as our horses trotted side by side. For a while, it felt like nothing else mattered.But the day wasn’t over. Paxton led me to a cozy restaurant nearby. The smell of spices and freshly cooked food made my stomach growl as we took our seats. We ordered chicken stock pepper soup and plates filled with steaming beef. I couldn’t wait to dig in.As I started eating, though, I noticed Paxton suddenly stop mid-bite. He wasn’t eating, just watching me with this strange look in his eyes. His fork hovere

    Hailey's POVAs the pool's lights shimmered across the water, Paxton's grin sent shivers down my spine. "It's not boring while you're here, babygirl," he whispered, his voice low and teasing. His hand moved with deliberate slowness, fingers grazing the fabric of my swimsuit, pressing against my pussy. I bit my lip, trying not to let out any sounds, but it was hard to resist the warmth of his touch.I stole a glance at him, my heart racing. He was still only in his swim trunks, and I couldn’t help but notice the growing bulge pressing against the thin fabric. The sight of him turned on, that bulge so clear, sent a jolt of excitement through me. I couldn't help myself—I reached down, my hand wrapping around his cock, hard as a rock beneath my grip. His sharp intake of breath only fueled my desire.The people in the pool started to leave, one by one. I glanced around, confusion filling me as the once-crowded area slowly emptied. "What the hell is going on?" I asked, still stroking his co

A date I wasn't even sure I wanted, yet here I was, wrapped in nervous energy. What was I thinking? Going on a date with him after everything that happened? But… I couldn’t help the fluttering excitement mixed with fear in my chest.Grinning as my phone buzzed loudly beside my pillow, I reached for it, my heart already hammering in my chest. Paxton's name flashed across the screen, and I couldn’t help but swallow a lump of anxiety before answering."Hi," I said, trying to keep my voice steady and soft, careful not to wake Mia or Jessy, who were still peacefully asleep."Meet me outside your gate. I’ll be there in a few minutes, babe. Hop in when you’re ready," Paxton's voice was deep, confident—too confident.I nodded, already stepping into the dress I’d laid out the night before.
