All Chapters of A Cruel Fate: Her Gamma's Regret: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Zoe’s POV “What the fuck is going on here?” Dillon thundered, stomping over to the edge of the pool, then looking back at Julia and I with a venomous glare. “Dillon, thank Goddess!” Blair whined, playing the wounded damsel role to perfection. “Did you see what she did to me? She attacked me for no reason! We need to report her to the Alpha before she goes around hurting other innocent pack members!” I rolled my eyes at her performance and Julia snorted behind me, totally unimpressed and unconcerned. But then again, why would she be? She hadn’t just assaulted the woman. Surely Dillon wouldn’t believe her, though. Would he? “Is that true?” Dillon demanded, still wearing a deadly snarl on his face. “She’s the one in the pool. Infer from that what you will.” I shrugged, refusing to apologize for what I’d done. The bitch deserved it. “Of course that’s not true!” Julia jumped to my defense. “How could you even ask such a thing? You can’t possibly believe Zoe would attack her un

Dillon’s POV “Wh-,what?” She stuttered. Zoe’s gorgeous blue eyes stared back at me, searching for the meaning behind my words. Even with tears staining her face, she was the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen and I could have let myself drown in her penetrating gaze. But I didn’t. Instead, I forced myself to only show her my steel resolve. “I, Dillon Kane, Gamma of the Glass Lake Pack, re-, unh!” Zoe slammed her hand over my mouth, stopping me from finishing the rejection. “Don’t you fucking dare reject me, Dillon!” She growled angrily. “You don’t get to do that! Especially not in some misguided attempt to be noble, sparing me more heartbreak or some other dumb shit! “I’m perfectly capable of deciding for myself what I am and am not willing to tolerate. You don’t get to decide that for me, no matter how well intentioned it was. Besides, if anyone gets to reject somebody in this bond, it’s me!” “You’re right. You should be the one to do it. Go ahead.” I said stoically, clenching m

Dillon’s POV I hurried to meet Zoe at our cabin in the woods, the one where we’d made love for the first time. I couldn’t wait to see her and tell her the good news, that the Alphas were going to help handle Blair. I couldn’t wait to hold her knowing she was finally accepting our bond. I remembered where the key to the front door was hidden and quickly fished it out to let myself in. If my stubborn little baby doll was in an obedient mood, she would be waiting in bed for me completely naked and that’s exactly where I hoped to find her. All was quiet when I entered the house and anxiously made my way to the bedroom. I pushed the door open soundlessly and what I saw behind it melted my heart. Zoe was curled up in the bed, laying on her side with the sheet tucked up under her chin, fast asleep. I quickly stripped out of my clothes and tiptoed around the bed to crawl in beside her. But the sight that met me when I pulled the covers back had me instantly hard and a string of expletive

Zoe’s POV The next morning I woke up to an empty bed, one neither of us had actually been sleeping in very long. Still, going to sleep together and waking up alone was becoming a bad habit for the two of us. One I planned to remedy very soon. Thankfully, the delightful smell of bacon told me my wayward mate hadn’t gone very far. The smell had me hopping out of bed, pulling Dillon’s shirt over my head and tiptoeing to the kitchen. But when I got there, more than the food had me drooling. Dillon was in nothing but a very tight pair of boxers that hugged his very fine ass to perfection. The muscles in his back flexed as he moved, stirring this and flipping that. And those strong thighs, the same ones I had very fond memories of, tensed with every thrust as he railed into me over and over again last night had my mouth watering for a very different kind of meat. “Shit! Shit! Shit!” Dillon’s curses stirred me from the spot where I stood leaning against the doorframe, admiring the vi

Zoe’s POV In the end, the Alphas swooping in to arrest Blair wasn’t very exciting. It was all a bit anticlimactic if I was being honest. But the relief I felt at knowing it was over was almost palpable. Dillon had strode into the bar like he owned the place, all confidence and charisma. He greeted Blair with a kiss on both cheeks which pissed me the fuck off. But I understood his need to maintain the faςade and it seemed to work. Blair was reduced to gag-worthy blushes and girlish giggles. Dillon played his role well, peppering Blair with a stream of small talk, none of which I could hear but when she tossed her head back with a saucy laugh and reached for Dillon’s hand, I could fill in the gaps easily enough. I wanted to march over and rip that hand away, set the bitch straight that Dillon was mine. But I reminded myself that allowing her a sense of control was all part of the distraction and it would be over soon. Then Dillon and I could finally move on with our lives. Blair h
