Part two Five years later. “I heard you might get lecturer of the year with the pace you’re heading.” Daniel Spear spoke, falling in line with me as I made my way from the lecture hall and towards my office, which was on the left side of the staff room. I rolled my eyes, but my cheeks heated at his bold proclamation. “I’m just doing my job, Mr Spears,” I answered. “You’re doing more than your job. The students love your class, and you have held record-breaking attendance at the university ever since you came. Let’s not forget that you broke a record for being the youngest professor this institution has ever had. These are more than mere proclamations,” he gushed out in awe. My cheeks were burning at this point. Okay, he was right. I’ve been lecturing at Stanford University on courses in medicine for the past two years, and I’ve secured three awards so far. The first was the youngest professor the university ever had; the second was the most engaging lecturer; and the third was the
Entwined With The Alpha Chapter 15: Rights and power
I remember the day Lionel overdosed. I came with Zion to visit, just like we had initially planned, only to find him unconscious, face down on the floor, with a needle plunged into his arm.I called the emergency line immediately to come over to the house. I didn’t let Zion in, and neither did I let him see Lionel when the medic came to take him away, because I feared that would leave a negative mark on him.We were, fortunately, able to stabilise him, and the doctors told us he had injected more doses of heroin than his system could carry. I told them he was clean, but they told me he might have stumbled back into abuse and felt too ashamed to tell me. The doctor told me if I had gotten to him later than I had, he wouldn’t have made it.Lionel pulled out of the state of unconsciousness a few weeks later. I came with Zion over to the hospital to visit, and there I met with Betty, Tatiana, and Owen for the first time in years. I will not forget the look Betty gave me and Zion that day,
Entwined With The Alpha Chapter 16: The important news
We came home, and I helped Zion change and freshen up. We ate, and then we did his homework. I sat next to Zion after tucking him in bed, stroked the side of his face, and then bid him good night.“Sweet dreams, okay?” He nodded, and I leaned in and placed a kiss on his forehead before leaving his room for mine.I had assignments and projects to grade, and I had to do them tonight as I would turn them in tomorrow.I entered the bed, wore my glasses, and gathered the papers and books on the nightstand onto my legs. Thirty minutes into my grading, I heard my phone buzzing on the nightstand, and I reached for it. I saw Diya’s ID on the screen, and I didn’t hesitate to pick it up.“I’m engaged!” were the first words that came into my ears, her voice high and glass-shattering. I didn’t need to see her to know she was grinning from cheek to cheek.“Oh wow, congratulations! Greg finally decided to put a ring on it.”“He did! I’m over the moon with excitement!” she squealed.“Have you called y

I gathered the assignment into my hands, grabbed my bag, and locked the car before heading towards my office.“You’re almost late,” I heard the famous voice of Daniel say from behind, and I groaned, not wanting to start a long talk with him this morning about how or why I was almost late.“Good morning, Daniel.” I tried a calm tone, and luckily, it worked.“Let me help you with that,” he offered, but unlike other times, I shook my head. It wasn’t his job to lessen my burden, and I didn’t want him to get used to it.“I’m almost at my office,” I pointed out as the reason I didn’t want his help.“Come on. I know you’ve got this under control and can do it all on your own, but I want to help.”Knowing there was no winning for Daniel, I paused and turned to him, clenching the books in my hand.“You will not let this rest if I don’t give in, will you?” I demanded, a frown coming into my face.He grinned. “You already know me so well.”I handed him the pile of books in my hand and began headi

I didn’t answer his question because I couldn’t, and so I walked on without bothering to say a word.He didn’t know my story with Aaron. The only one I told it to was Diya, and she was a keeper of secrets. Daniel didn’t deserve to know who Aaron was because we didn’t have a level of trust in our friendship. I trusted him to an extent, but I’d rather keep things from him, especially my secrets.“The least you can do is not ignore me, Zera,” he said, and I snapped out to see him following me.I paused and turned to him. “You need to stop following me, okay?”“Who’s Aaron? Why did you call me Aaron?”“Aaron is someone I want to leave in the past, and you are driving me nuts, just like he did.” This was the highest level of truth I could reveal to him. This would also shut him up and keep him from asking any more questions. Keeping him in the dark was best for both of us.“He’s the one responsible for your lack of trust in men?”That would be Owen. Aaron only made it harder, but that’s a s
Entwined With The Alpha Chapter 19: A tight corner
The next few days flew by faster than I expected, and soon it was Friday. I had one class with my students, and after I closed up for the day, the next step was to pick up Zion from school.Just like every day, as I stepped out of the block, Daniel was already waiting for me to see me off to my car. “Are you ready for the night ahead?” he asked, sounding too eager and making me raise a brow at him.“I can’t say no, can I?” I raised a brow.“You can’t, Ms Adams. This is a yes-only question,” he chuckled.“Then yes, I am,” I answered.“And Zion?” His concern always seems to warm my heart. It could be because he’s expecting to get a chance with me someday, but it was always nice and comforting whenever he’d ask after Zion. He did more than some family members did.“He would be with Diya. I’ve already made plans.”He nodded, impressed, saying, “That’s good.”For a moment, I wondered what it would be like to give us a chance. He was a great guy with a big heart. I’ve known him for two years

My heart doubled a beat when my eyes returned to rest on him, and I found him watching me, but unlike others, he wasn’t clapping; he was just watching me intently, like I owed him something, like I took something that was his.I wasn’t hallucinating when I saw him at Domino’s many days ago. Seeing him here today told me what I had seen was him. He was there that afternoon, watching me like he was doing now.He looked the same way he did when I had seen him then and also in my dream. He had longer hair and trimmed beards, unlike five years ago, but didn’t look to have aged a bit since then.His appearance now meant I was no longer safe with my son. Five years ago, I said goodbye to him and thought I would never see him again, but here he was at the place I least expected.This was my nightmare becoming a reality, and there was nothing I could do.“Zera, they are waiting for you.” The host whisper-yelled at me, forcing me back into the reality of my surroundings to know I wasn’t in the r
Entwined With The Alpha Chapter 21: The entanglement of Zera Adams
It wasn’t an imagination I could snap out of, nor was it a dream I could wake up from. I couldn’t pretend that he wasn’t here either, because he was here with me. This was real. Aaron Hart stood closer to me than ever. I could feel his heated gaze watching my every move, wanting to see my next reaction.I turned from the elevator to face him and found a look on his face I couldn’t figure out.“Zera Adams.” His deep, hoarse voice called out like we had scores to settle, and shivers ran down my spine. His voice had been my downfall in the past, and even now, it still is.“You look amazing,” he said, and his eyes dragged over my body like it was on full display for him. “Indeed, the years have been kind.”I swallowed.I left him in my past five years ago, and ever since then, I have avoided anything and everything that would bring him back into my life. Now here he was, standing before me and staring me dead in the face, like he could see my very soul.I needed to gather my courage and fa
