All Chapters of Falling For My Basketball Alpha!: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Hailey's POV As 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

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 The next day, I arrived at school with my heart racing. As I walked in with my friends, the buzz of excitement filled the air. Students darted around, exchanging whispers and laughter, their faces alight with anticipation. “Who’s your teammate? Who’s your teammate?” they called out, the question echoing in the hallways. Mia, always perceptive, turned to me, her brow furrowed. “Did something happen? Why are they running helter-skelter?” I shrugged, trying to mask my own growing anxiety. The atmosphere was electric, and I could feel the thrill mixed with nerves. Just then, a student rushed past us, nearly colliding with Mia. 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. The girl merely blushed and dashed off, leaving us even more curious. “You haven’t heard?” she finally said, her eyes wide with excitement. “We’re going on a two-day camp as part of the internship! E

Hailey's POV Los 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 lec

Hailey’s POVI clung desperately to the thick, wet roots dangling into the pit, my fingers trembling from exhaustion. My arms screamed in pain as I tried to keep my head above the rising water. Cold droplets stung my face, mingling with the tears I couldn’t hold back. A sharp ache throbbed in my head, the rain pounding harder with each passing second. The storm above felt relentless, and the deafening roar of thunder made me flinch.“Moon Goddess, please!” I sobbed, my voice cracking under the strain. “Send me a helper. I don’t want to die here or be eaten by some wild animal!”The rain showed no mercy, filling the pit faster than I could comprehend. My legs were submerged, and soon my waist followed. I gasped for air, gripping the roots with what little strength remained in me. My breaths were shallow, my body trembling uncontrollably.Suddenly, a voice broke through the chaos, distant but unmistakable. “Hailey! Hailey! Where are you?”I recognized it immediately—Paxton.
