Zoey's POV

I barged into the library, and both Alpha Ethan and Jaya were surprised by my entrance. Quickly, I went over to where Jaya was seated beside Alpha Ethan and took him away from Alpha Ethan. I made Jaya stand behind me, and then I stood before him, while I stood before Alpha Ethan, who looked confused as he got up on his feet. He stared at me, and then he looked at Jaya, who was behind me.

“What is going on?” he asked through the mind link. Obviously, he doesn't want Jaya to get a clue of what was happening. “Stay away from Jaya,” I responded back through the mind link, and his brow furrowed; he seemed confused by my words. “What do you mean?” he asked, and I frowned. “You know what I mean; stay away from my son,” I yelled through the mind link.

He stared at me for a moment before he looked behind me. “Can you give Mama and me a few minutes?” he spoke calmly, and I turned to look at Jaya, who seemed confused about what was happening, but he nodded and stared at me with questi

    Alpha Ethan's POVI was surprised to see her standing before me. She seemed surprised, and it was evident in her eyes, but I also realized she had a glint of worry in her eyes, or maybe I was wrong and seeing wrong. We held each other's gaze, and it seemed like we were both at a loss for words. I moved my eyes downward and saw a bowl of fruit salad in her hand. I furrowed my brow, wondering what she was doing with a plate of fruit salad this late at night.I looked back at her, and she stared back at me. “What…” we both said the words together and at the same time. I sighed and gestured for her to go first instead. She swallowed before speaking. “What are you doing up so late?” She asked with care and concern in her voice, or maybe I heard wrong.“I have a lot of work to do,” I said, and she stared at me for a moment before she spoke again. “Can I come in?” she asked, and I nodded, realizing that I had kept her standing by the door. “Yes, come in,” I said and stepped aside for her to

Ever since we met again, I had wished for this moment, and right now, it was happening. My Zoey was in my arms. I took my hands off her face and went further to her lower back, grabbing her waist. I was tempted to go further, but I stopped myself and settled for the waist because I didn't know how she would react to it.We kissed for a moment, and then I pulled away when I realized she was going out of breath.

    Zoey's POVI was surprised to see him standing by the door, watching Jaya and me. I didn't expect him to be awake at such early hours, and he even looked well-dressed, which meant he had already taken his bath.“Papa, you're awake,” Jaya said as he noticed Alpha Ethan by the door. Alpha Ethan smiled, revealing his beautiful set of arranged teeth. This man is incredibly handsome. He walked over to us and lifted Jaya up, who giggled and hugged him. “Good morning, Father,” Jaya greeted while Alpha Ethan placed a kiss on his cheek and put him down.“How is my champion doing this morning?” Alpha Ethan asked as he ruffled Jaya's hair. It seems he loves doing that. “I'm fine, Daddy, but I'm not happy,” Jaya said with a frown, and Alpha Ethan furrowed a brow and squatted to his height. “And what is making my champ angry?” He asked, and Jaya pouted.“You were supposed to be asleep.

I needed answers, and I was running out of patience for it.“Is something wrong?” he asked again, while I stared at him for a moment before taking a step closer to him. “Can I speak to you?” I asked, and he nodded. “But not here,” I said, and he nodded. “Let's go to my study then,” he suggested, and I agreed with him.He led the way while I followed him, a series of questions buzzing in my head.

Our gaze met, and I could see there was no anger in her eyes, but rather, she held pity in her eyes, which was confusing.We held each other's gaze, and I didn't know what to say to her.

I turned off the bright lights and left only the bedside light on before leaving the room. I wanted to go to my room and go to bed, but then I thought of Alpha Ethan and wondered why he wasn't back yet. According to Jaya, he said something came up, and they couldn't go out, and I knew whatever would make Alpha Ethan cancel his plans with Jaya must be really serious.Filled with concern, I went down to the sitting room and asked the first servant I met on my way about Alpha Ethan.

He looked so tired and was doing his best to appear strong in front of me."You should get some sleep; you have to leave at dawn," he said, breaking the silence.

I knew I should allow him to go, but I was acting childish because I was scared that he would disappear. He smiled and ran his finger through my hair. "I will bathe here," he said, and I sighed in relief.He smiled at me again and then went towards the bathroom. He got to the door of the bathroom and turned to look at me.

Slowly I opened my lips, and he slides his tongue as he began massaging my ass.A throaty groan left my lips at the impacts of his hand on my waist. In a swift motion, he made me lay on the bed and climbed on me. A satisfied smile appeared on his face as he ran an admiring gaze on me. “You are so beautiful.” He praised, and I blushed and wrapped my arms around his neck. “And you are hot.” I complimented, and he chuckled before bending down to seal his lips with mine.This time the kiss was so tenderly and loving, it was as if he was conveying his emotions through the kiss. With my eyes closed, I felt him move away from my lips, and then he went for the crook of my neck. I could feel his teeth as he nipped on my neck, sending a different sensation all over my body. I wanted him to just go on and mark me as his, but I knew it was too early for

Despite my anger, I could taste that her food was well-cooked and delicious.“Well, you cook more than her,” my wolf comforted me while I just rolled my eyes and continued eating as I watched Alpha Ethan and Sandra talk so happily with each other. “That's a lie; you told me it's outside, when I got there I saw nothing.” Sandra pouted, and Alpha Ethan laughed loudly while Jaya followed them. My mind was so preoccupied with thoughts that I had no idea what they were saying.“Jaya, darling, do you know that when I got outside, I saw nothing? Your father tricked me,” Sandra complained like a little child, causing Jaya to laugh more.Feeling left out, I looked at the three at the table; they looked so happy without me.

I hummed and requested that she get me a glass of juice while I took a seat on the couch. A few seconds later, she returned with a glass of juice and handed it to me. After she left, I took a sip of the juice while I was entertained by what was showing on the TV. But then, I noticed the entrance door opened .

A smile played on his face as the heavy raindrops fell on his face. Gosh, he was incredibly handsome.He stretched out his hand to me, which I took, and then he made me turn around in the rain as we both laughed our hearts out like little children. He went further to wrap his hand around my waist and then pulled me to himself. I smiled, and he smiled before leaning towards my left ear and whispered, “I love you.” He said, and I gulped as chilled shivers passed down my spine.

    Alpha Ethan's POV:Throughout the concert, I noticed Zoey looked comfortable as she watched the play on the stage. With a daggering glare, I looked at Lord Philip, who met my gaze, and I frowned. I hated his guts; the fact that he almost broke my relationship with Zoey angered me even more.After the concert came to an end, Zoey and I walked out of the hall and met Philip at the door. It was as if he was waiting for us, and I was right when he saw us and approached us.“Alpha Ethan,” he called with a smirk, which I found very annoying. “I can see that you are back with your mate,” he said, making me grit my teeth and wanting to move closer to him, but Zoey stopped me by placing a hand on my shoulder.With clenched fists, I glared at him and wished I could punch him in the face, but Zoey's hand on my shoulder stopped me. “I did not approach you for a fight; rather, I want to say a few words to you and make peace,” he said, which surprised me.

Now it's just daddy and mommy time,” I said, and Jaya nodded as if he fully understood me.“I get it, Dad. You are taking Mom out on a date,” he said, and I furrowed my brows, wondering where he got such words. “And for the record, Mom loves vanilla ice cream, so get her one,” he added, and I chuckled with disbelief before asking, “Where did you get such words from?” I asked, and he scoffed before rolling his eyes. “I'm a smart kid, Dad; I thought you knew this already,” he spoke proudly, and I smiled before wrapping my arms around his neck and pulling him to myself.“Really.

Jaya, Zoey, and I entered the mansion, and Jaya came to hold my hand. “So, are we still undergoing my training, Dad?” He asked, and I chuckled before ruffling his hair. “Of course, we will start tomorrow. Are you ready for your ass to be kicked?” I asked, and he scoffed before hitting me on the stomach. “I'm stronger than you, Dad,” he said, and a big smile spread across my face. “Let's see about that,” I argued with him and tried ruffling his hair, but he groaned and moved away from me while he tried to arrange his hair with his hands.I watched him go to Zoey, who was seated on the couch.

    Zoey's POVI walked out of there and took the stairs to my room, which I knew was still left vacant for me. I got in and shut the door before pacing around the room. Anger rose within me as I thought of Vera and the little punishment given to her abusive mate. I was angry at myself for not being around and present at the trial. At least I would have done something and made sure he got a more severe punishment than the one given to him. “Damn it,” I groaned, and then sat on the bed. My entire being was consumed with anger at the thought of him just spending 20 years in imprisonment when my Vera, my friend, was gone. A big frown appeared on my face as I wished I could just change the hands of time. I believe I wouldn't have let Lord Adrian give him such a light punishment.While I was still in thought, a knock came on the door, and I groaned. I didn't want to be disturbed. "Who is there?" I snapped. "It's me, Mother, Mother," I heard Jaya's voice, and I quickly stood to my feet. How c

I noticed the way she walked into my room and the way she took a seat, and that made me realize what was strange and different. The Zoey seated before me had regained her lost memory; the old Zoey was back, and that was why she had this compelling energy around her.“Have you gotten your lost memory?” I asked, and she remained silent for a moment before she spoke. "I'm here to tell you the truth, not because I care about what you will think about me, but because I just want you to know the truth," she muttered in a firm voice, totally ignoring my words to her."I didn't have sex with Philip," she announced, and I gulped.
