"Are you okay?" Noah asked as he carried Hazel from the room she had been in."My head hurts." Hazel replied. It was the effects of the drug she had inhaled from the handkerchief they had used to cover her mouth with."Sorry about that. I will give you some water when we get to the car." Noah said.Hazel was too nauseous to ask whose car they were going to. Or maybe she did not care and was just glad to have been rescued. She had thought that would wake up and find her lying there, unconscious. She was really grateful for being saved. "Thank you." She mouthed before going unconscious again."You are welcome. Noah said. He smiled a little. This was a sad situation but it had given him a chance to be with Hazel, even if it was for a short time, without any of them raising his or her voice towards the other. This was the first time in years, they were coexisting peacefully. He wished this moment could not end. He wanted to stay in the car with Hazel for as long as he could. But that wa
Hazel 48Hazel was still trembling in fear even after they had left the hotel. She could not believe that had it not been Noah, she would have been assaulted terribly and probably killed. She tried to get it off her mind but it was impossible. She also tried not to cry but that was also impossible as tears burst their banks as soon as she sniffled. Her life was really at risk. She had assumed that the threats were just bluffs; she did not expect them to be actualized. The more she thought about what would have happened to her, the more tears streamed down her face.She was grateful even in her fear. Noah had been there just in time to save her. Had it not been for him… she shook her head to avoid thinking of what would have been her fate. Noah did not know what to do with her. Ever since they had known each other, even before the kids, there was no day where they had just sat together peacefully. There were always some emotions swirling around them. Noah moved close to her and pulled
Hazel's POVI hurriedly walked towards the door. I had not bothered to bid Noah bye and I did not care. All I wanted to see were my kids. I knew Noah had saved me and I should have shown my gratitude but at the moment that was not a priority. I would offer him one later. He should have, however, taken me home to my kids. I had never spent a night away from them and I was worried. Lucas was a good friend but I should not have left them with him alone. I just hoped that they had not given Lucas a hard time. I would deal with the trauma of being kidnapped later so I shoved it at the back of my mind the way I did things that stressed me. It was not the first time I was postponing my grief. I had, in fact never mourned the death of my brief relationship with Noah. I was still waiting for the right time, which between juggling work and taking care of the kids, never came. There was no time for pity party. I had had to man up and be the responsible and reliable parent my children needed. May
Noah smiled at me, his smile so beautiful. It was just like I have always Imagined, only that his smile didn't just warm my heart, it tipped me down there. Five years of admiring and crushing on him secretly and today, he finally realised my existence. Not only that, he was in my room, giving me that killer smile. I couldn't control my feelings anymore seeing that I have kept them bottled up all this time.Why was he in my room? I didn't have the slightest idea but that didn't matter. He was here with me, that was everything to me. I didn't even dare to ask because I feared that that would drive him away.I gave him my best smile and walked towards him.Noah took unhurried steps towards me, stopping just about a few inches before me. He then took my hand, placed a gentle kiss on it. I felt tingly all through my body and my eyes felt teary with emotions. It's finally happening, each of my fantasies. Noah had kissed me. This was like a dream come true.I smiled at him and he bent h
Watching the damn pregnancy test for the humpteeth time, I don't know if I should cry or scream with joy. I am pregnant. But how? We only did it once! It was a mistake, or so he called it. Noah was fucking drunk that night when he came knocking on my door. After turning eighteen, I found out that he was my mate, just like I had prayed. I was over the moon but he didn't share the same excitement. He even warned me not to breathe a word about the news of being mates to anyone. I did as he instructed, hoping that he would come to wrap his mind around the fact that I was his fated mate and accept me. When he arrived at my doorstep reeking of alcohol, I welcomed him. When he kissed me Possessive, I kissed him back and when he spread my legs and settled between them, I spread them wider for him, granting him access to my treasure. Noah made love passionately to me that night but the next morning, my heart was shattered into a million pieces by his words. I had tried hugging him
I froze, blood draining from my face before my anger slowly crept to every nerve of my being. Seeing that bitch standing proudly next to my mate with a smile on her face, all I wanted to do was march to her and skin her alive. Before I could control myself, I was before her, a crisp slap echoing through the room. Gasps filled the room as Serena's eyes widened with surprise, a dangerous going flickering through her eyes. “ Are you crazy?” Noah roared, his eyes flashing between red and black, showing that his wolf was struggling to take control. “ I should be asking you that. Are you crazy? How dare you bring this woman here?” I spat, my anger flaring just seeing her ugly face. Seeing her reminded me of the past, the past I fought so hard to forget. “ Who do you think you are to question who I bring here? Let me remind you in case you forgot. I am the Alpha of this pack and I get to do what the fuck I want.” Noah's face was painted with fury and I could see I had managed to anger
Chapter 4Serena's evil voice had me snapping my neck to face her. She had an evil smile on her face and I could clearly tell she was up to something. She then walked to me, her body hovering above mine where I laid. I looked around in panic only to realise that I was in the hospital. I tried to push her away, get her ugly face out of sight but she seemed to have anticipated my move and gripped the headboard. Being an alpha blood, she was obviously stronger than an omega like me and she didn't hesitate to flaunt it on my face with an evil smirk. “ A fox can't wrestle with an elephant. You should know your place.” She sneered at me.I hated being compared to a fox and I hated it even more that she was stronger than me“ What do you want?" I asked warily as I remained defenceless against her. I was vulnerable with how weak my body felt after the punishment.“ Now that's an interesting question.What do I want?" She repeated, a grin spreading on her face. " What could I possibly wa
Noah's povSitting in my office, I can't help but think about those Hazel eyes which have been haunting me in the past five years. Five years of separation and every blood moon, I have to fight against my beast from taking over. My beast, Ryker has been losing his sanity with each passing day. There are a few things I regret in life and my biggest regret is hurting her and kicking her in the curb. She was destined to be mine but because I thought she wasn't good for me, I treated her as shit and chose another as my mate. Serena was everything I needed in a woman. Smart, beautiful and powerful. She was a whole package but Ryker thought otherwise or should I say, she proved me otherwise. Two years into our marriage, I found out that she was cheating on me and that's not even the worst part, she was here on a plan with her mate, Alpha Drake of Redmoon pack. The plan was simple: poison me and take over my pack. Luckily, her plan was discovered and you have to ask about her tragic
