All Chapters of My Single Daddy Alpha: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

There was an ache in my heart that I didn’t quite understand. It felt as if my chest wanted to cave in or implode. I couldn’t quite figure out what it wanted to do. I ran my fingers through my hair and drove down Main Street. With each passing moment, my mind raced through every possible scenario I could be walking into. I didn’t want to allow myself to think about getting kidnapped again. Cillian would feel it and never let me go on an assignment again. No, I had to be brave in the face of danger. I glanced around the town as I waited for the light to turn green. It seemed as if Moon Valley had turned into a ghost town overnight. Sure, there were people out and about, but there weren’t nearly as many as there should have been at nine-twenty in the morning. Normally, Main Street would be bustling with activity from the shops that lined both sides of the road. But there was an eeriness to the town, almost like a dark cloud had come over the whole state of Nevada. I couldn’t help but

Iclung to Cillian’s hand, refusing to let him go. Every fiber of my being felt as if I’d stuck my finger into an outlet, but I didn’t care. I was just grateful he was alive and sitting beside me. “I’m fine,” he whispered. The plastic chair creaked under his weight as he shifted closer to me. “If you think I’m letting you out of my sight, you’re crazy,” I said to him as I squeezed his hand. “It’s about time you see things my way.” Cillian’s lips curled at the corner as he leaned in close and kissed my cheek. I didn’t care who saw us or what they were thinking. It didn’t even bother me to have the pack think we were in competition with Titus and Helene for which couple expressed their love in public the most. I’d always thought it was strange how a person would freely give themselves over to someone else. The whole prospect of finding that one person to love and to hold always seemed to be a dream I had never thought I’d get to experience. Yet, here I was, beside the man I knew I co

Awarm breeze rustled through the trees of the Harkness Manor Estate, filling the night air with the sweet aroma of summer. Every nerve in my body tingled, and my heart pumped violently. It seemed as if I had been waiting for this moment my entire life. How many years had I denied the bond I shared with Cillian only to find out it had been pointless? How many different paths had I sought before realizing I belonged here? I couldn’t stop the smile that stretched across my lips as friends, family, and pack members gathered around to celebrate my engagement to Cillian Harkness, the alpha of the Crescent Moon pack. They’d always said that we were fated mates and that we’d be bonded for life, but I’d never believed the superstitious nonsense they spouted during my youth. Yet here I was, nearly a decade later, astonished to find myself not only marked by Cillian, but also engage to the man I’d sworn I’d never be with. It was funny how life worked itself out. Even through all the chaos and

“Sorry! That’s it? You walked out on our engagement party! Do you have any idea what my parents were complaining about? They said that when a guy can’t even stick around for the party, he won’t stick around at all.”“What did you tell them?” Cillian asked as I felt his mind probing mine and overriding my anger and disdain for him. He was admiring the black dress that clung to my body. I had picked it just for him, but now I wished I hadn’t. I was pissed at him, and I wasn’t about to let him change my mind on that. I inhaled deeply and tried to see reason.Cillian was the alpha—everyone in Moon Valley was aware of that—and I had to come to the realization that maybe there were things he’d have to attend to that didn’t include me. I could feel his soft, tender thoughts stroking the edges of my mind to calm my irritation, but we both knew I was on the verge of forgiving him.His lips twitched, and then he flashed me my favorite crooked grin as he tenderly brushed the back of his fingers

Ipulled up to the Harkness Manor and stared at its elegance. How many centuries had this house been standing in this exact spot? Time never seemed to touch it. Even the wrought-iron gates that flanked the driveway were still fresh and new. The cobblestones that I drove over hadn’t changed, nor did the building look like it needed to be updated in any shape or form. It was astonishing to see it so immaculate in its original state—truly a sight to behold. I only wished I would be able to create something for myself that could hold up against the test of time. It wasn’t that I was ungrateful for being able to stay here with Cillian, but I wanted a place to call my own. The fortress I’d built in the mountains was nothing to sneer at but it was a sanctuary for shifters on the run or for the use of those at Argentum. I wanted something homier and not so commercial. I wanted a place that was just like the Harkness Manor, except filled with laughter and tears, and filled with memories of my
