Ana povThe bell started to ring as we were talking, and Joe touched Hayden's hand."I know I do not say this very often, but I am proud of you."Hayden looked like he was going to have a heart attack from the face he was making. I guess his father has never said something like this to him."Your grandchild must be rubbing off on you for you to talk about being proud of anybody."Joe scoffed but said, "Maybe?"I wanted to laugh, but I did not want to interrupt a father-son moment, so I held it in.We heard a knock on the door, and Hayden stood up immediately and rushed to the door, but when he looked at me, it was like he caught himself. He was not wearing a shirt, but that was normal for male wolves; they hardly wore shirts since their bodies were always hot, but then I was wearing a nightgown since I was not going anyway today, and he was giving me a look that meant, Go change."Who is it?""Doctor Joel and two nurses, go get dressed.""I thought that they
Alex PovI stood up and looked at the clock because I did not think that I had slept that long for it to be four o'clock already, but he was correct."I see you at the meeting," Joe said and headed to the door."We should get going then," I said and stood up, but Hayden pulled me back."It's already evening; everywhere will be cold outside. Go grab a jacket or coat.""Nope, I feel fine; carrying a jacket for a meeting that may just last for a minute is not on the list of things I want to do.""Why not? The meeting is going to last more than a minute, maybe up to an hour, because I want to instill fear in a lot of people," he said.I gave him a look. "What are you up to, Hayden? Why do you need to input fear into anyone?"He shrugged. "For many things.""Like?" I asked him."Like making sure that no one tries to kidnap you again, poison the twins, or even tries to gun you down.""Okay, let's go then," I said because I trusted Hayden. He knows what he is doi
The part about writing out the expenses we made was starting to cause confusion, So Hayden started to clarify what he meant. "I did not ask you to write out everything spent; just put everything bought for your family together and put an estimated amount to it. That way, we can work together to find the culprit."He explained everything to them and told them that anyone caught trying to send their money illegally or carrying it out of pack would be punished, So send it through the true means.After about forty minutes, the meeting ended."Alpha, don't we get energy drinks for standing so long?" A girl who was about six or seven years old said.Everyone started laughing, including Hayden, and the girl's mother started dragging her out of the place, but Hayden called the woman back."Leave her alone Tabitha, and Grace, yes, there should be energy drinks and snacks. So you are free to grab any snacks of your choice and an energy drink from the pack store.""Say thank you, Alpha," said t
I keep looking outside the window, hoping that the cars will move today of all days. I had to be stuck in a traffic jam."F*ck it," I cursed, pulling my heels off."Drop me off here," I said to the taxi driver, and I started running immediately after my feet touched the ground.You might be wondering why a girl in such gorgeous heels suddenly decides to run to my location instead of waiting for the cars to move. Well, if I am any more late than I am right now, my boss will chop my head off.Well, my name is Alexandria Cage. I am a single mother of two children and a she-wolf. I work as the head banquet server for DC Wedding Limited. It is run by the hellcat Maggie Robbin. The worst boss you could ever ask for, but at least the pay is good.Today, one of her biggest clients, also a bigger hellcat than her, is getting married. Although I haven't met the woman, her demands from us showed everyone who she is because she loved to make last-minute changes and refused to come to our office
"What is wrong with you? Are you crazy?" He said, then snatched the broom.I ran into the room and closed the door. I grabbed my phone to call the police when I heard him say."Look, Alexandria, I swear to the moon goddess, I won't harm you. Stop this right now and come here so we can talk."I could see that he still loves to bark orders at people, but anyway, anything sealed with the moon goddess’s name is binding, so I decided to go meet him and pretend that I believed him, so I could leave tomorrow with my children in peace. I will not let him deceive me twice.Thankfully, my babies were still sleeping throughout that noise, so I carefully opened the door and closed it back.Seeing Hayden Walker up close after so long, I still can't get used to how handsome he was.He rolled his eyes, then looked at his watch before replying."I am listening; say what you have to say, then leave and don't come back," I said, giving him a death glare."I think I should be the one to get angry; you l
I opened my eyes slowly because my head felt like someone was drumming inside it. I shook my head for a couple of seconds, trying to make my vision clear. I grabbed what I assumed to be a pillow, plopped over it, and then inhaled. This place smelled so nice, just like chocolate, fresh flowers, and then that musky cologne that I could remember from anywhere.I pushed up immediately, then groaned because the movement took a toll on me. I clutched my head."I take it that you have recognized where you are." A voice I knew to be Hayden said.I opened my eyes immediately, and there he was leaning over the wall. He pushed away from it and then walked to the bed."How are you feeling?" He asked me, but I was more concentrated on his body. His hair kept dripping water, showing that he just showered, and due to how close he was to me, I could smell his spicy shower gel, which I loved so much when we lived together.I moved down to his abs, which were on full display since he wore only black
All through breakfast I was not smiling because I found nothing funny but the twins kept giggling and playing with their father. Hayden also kept smiling and all I wanted to do was to choke him. I kept looking around for the way out while pretending to be eating."Mommy open" Lily screamed then pulled a spoonful of the rice in my mouth, I shook my head but still ate a bit from it."Don't give me baby, just eat" I whispered then she pouted then that Asshole smiled then positioned his mouth."Give daddy a bit too," Hayden said to his daughter and she smiled and started feeding him."Mom, I thought you said people should not talk while they eat?" Elijah asked."I did, Lily and Hayden do not talk while you eat" I scolded them."Yea mommy" They both answered and started eating.I put the remaining food on my plate into my mouth and stood up with the plate but Hayden shook his head."The housekeepers will take care of it, leave it there."But I shook my head, "Don't worry, Where is the kitc
"Do you want something to drink?" Hayden asked me, but I refused to say a word, not only because I did not want to give him any attention but because I might start cursing him in front of my babies.He chuckled. "Get her some wine and water for me."The lady nodded, and then made to leave, but I called her name."Shantel, Get me water, not wine. Maybe his lying ass is trying to get me drunk."When I finished talking, I looked at my children in shock because I had forgotten that they were here for a second and cursed. But thankfully, they were busy watching a carton and had headphones on."Thank God," I murmured, but when I looked at him, his face was grim and his eyes were hardened.""No one is allowed to talk to me like that, not even my mate, because...""Your mate?" I asked. "More love like your prisoner and the last thing I want to do is talk, see, or smell anything related to you."His mouth curled in what could be called a smile, and the way his eyes were glistening, I knew he w
