The Alpha Who Stole My Christmas
Christmas was meant to be her favorite time of the year… until an unknown Alpha stole it.

Her best friend is a werewolf.
And the man she slept with is her best friend’s father, Alpha Zayne Bat, ruler of the strongest and most fearful pack.
Caught between her ex’s public lies, a supernatural world she never believed in, and a pull toward a man she should never want, Lisa’s life spirals into danger, desire, and a fate she never asked for.

Instead, it begins the one she was never meant to escape.

Chapter: CHAPTER 89LISA “You have just five minutes, five minutes, and you are out of here, and I mean it this time, Zayne.” Listening to him would give me the closure I needed to move on, and I knew Zayne. When he set his mind on achieving something, nothing ever stopped him. Halfway through hearing him speak, I was already soaked in tears. I had no idea what being an Emperor truly meant. “I didn’t want to get you involved in all of this. I thought the fight would be very messy, but it seems this Emperor only has to think a word.” He winked at me, that goofy Zayne I knew. He stood up and walked toward me until he stopped right in front of me and held my shoulders. All the anger I felt at that moment melted away. With this man, I was never fully in control of my emotions, and after everything he just told me, I knew I wouldn’t stay mad for long. “I love you so much, Pumpkin. I don’t want to be anywhere else but right beside you.” I was about to be a fool for the umpteenth time. ***** ONE YEAR L

Chapter: CHAPTER 88ZAYNE“That was funny, but an expensive joke.”Scar was the first person to speak. Bruno followed almost immediately, both of them laughing like I had just cracked a terrible joke.Not once did I expect my words to be taken seriously.“I shouldn’t have been an Alpha in the first place, judging by the circumstances surrounding our birth. This is not up for debate. It is an order from your Emperor.”“What?” Mum and Lucas said at the same time.They were clearly the only two people in the room who had been entirely in the dark, oh, Josh too.“I knew your healing wasn’t ordinary,” Lucas said, sounding almost excited. “That poison was the strongest of them all. Emperor, that nullifies the prophecy. Your words alone can nullify it.”I wondered what was running through his mind as he continued.“You know, all my life I was so obsessed with power, chasing it endlessly, holding onto things that didn’t matter. In the process, I lost the most important humans in my life: my children. I don’t wan

Chapter: CHAPTER 87ZAYNE“What’s happening to me? Why am I seeing Papi?”The audacity. The sheer audacity of her calling me by that name.I watched Elena move in circles, her hands clutching her head as she kept opening and closing her eyes. Suddenly, she screamed, dropping to her knees.“What’s going on? Why can’t I stop seeing him?”“Enough of the act, Elena. This is me. Zayne. Your Papi.” I stepped forward slowly. “You of all people should know that eliminating me was never going to be that easy. How have you been, my darling? Do you mind if we chat? Your daughter, sorry, our daughter, has been longing to see you. Shall we?”She wrapped her arms around herself, rocking back and forth. The loss of her baby had clearly done something to her. Her once well-kept hair was dry and lifeless. Dark circles framed her eyes, and her face looked pale and hollow. But whatever pity I might have had died the moment she released that arrow.She shook her head violently, like someone being electrocuted.“No. This can

Chapter: CHAPTER 86ZAYNEEmily walked into my room with a gloomy face. I already knew what it was about. It had been days, and she hadn’t seen Lisa or spoken to her.“Dad, why do you look so unbothered?” she asked. “This is the fourth day, and we haven’t heard anything from Lisa. Both of you said she would be joining us soon. What if something bad has happened to her? I just came back from the island, and there was no sign of her anywhere.”There was no point dragging the truth away from her. I knew my daughter. She wouldn’t stop until she got answers.“She’s fine,” I said calmly. “It’s better this way. She has been through a lot and deserves some breathing space.”I swallowed hard. This was difficult for me, but I knew it was for the best. I loved her deeply, and I would never forgive myself if I dragged her into all this mess. It was too much.Being an Emperor had always been the real reason I never wanted to get married, though I often hid behind my parents’ failed marriage as an excuse. But when Lis

Chapter: CHAPTER 85LISAWas I really going to take my own life?Emily hadn’t left my side since we left Bee’s place. She followed me like my own shadow, even down to the restroom.It was already getting dark. The night felt longer than usual, and the wind was so strong that every time it blew, I looked toward the door, hoping Zayne would walk in with enough explanation for all of this.“I think we should sleep, Lisa. I miss Dad so much that I wish what we saw today were true. But if he were alive, we would be the first people he would come to, and you know this. It’s time for you to move on, Lisa. Please.”Was she hiding something from me, too?I didn’t know anymore. Everyone was a suspect now.I tried to stand up to get a glass of water, but froze midway when I felt his presence… his scent.Standing at the door was Zayne.Nothing had changed about him, except that he looked even more handsome.The glass of juice Emily was holding slipped from her hand and shattered on the floor, orange juice splashing

Chapter: CHAPTER 84LISAMy Zayne. I was frozen on the spot, but Lucia wasn’t. Then we heard a loud growl, and I turned in the direction of the sound and saw Josh’s wolf hiding behind a tree like he was scared.A black wolf, two white wolves, and Zayden’s wolf growled at Josh’s wolf, and he followed them, running away from the woods.I was too startled to run after him, same as Emily. We only thought about it when we were finally back in the hotel room.“You saw him, didn’t you? Zayne, he is alive. Why hasn’t he come for us? Why are they running after Josh? Gosh! I should have run after him, but I was so shocked I didn’t even ask Lucia to run after them.”I yanked the bedsheets off in frustration and threw the pillow away.“I don’t know, Lisa. I am as surprised as you are. Seeing Dad’s wolf in the woods this morning is a lot. What if it is a false connection?”I shot her a look. “False connection, and both of us felt it?”“We need to leave now. Scar will answer my question.”I drove as fast as I could, a

Chapter: CHAPTER 81IRISH POV I didn’t stay to hear the rest of it. I went over to the kitchen to get a bottle of water. It has been one hell of a discovery. Mummy spent the best part of her life gambling and resenting Mr. Smith, who apparently is my father, while he spent his time mourning his dear loved one. How pathetic. I didn’t know how to feel about all of this. Finding out my father isn’t an asshole, and that he is one hell of a fine man, made me truly forgive my mum. I mean, the man is cute. I don’t know how to act around him. I have spent almost all my life resenting him as well for what his absence did to us. I took a bottle of water and turned to go. My heart almost dropped when I bumped into Diego standing right in the kitchen. “You scared me!” I held my chest. I wanted to ask him how he got here, but that would be a silly question. The mafia king appears anytime. “Sorry about that.” I was already taking the water when I noticed him staring at me intensely. “Nigga, I know my face is

Chapter: CHAPTER 80IRISH POVGrandma immediately snatched my hand away from him like his touch alone could contaminate me.“Mum, is this you?” the man said, his voice shaking slightly. “I have looked for you everywhere.”Looking closer at him, my brain finally connected the dots. I met him at the resort, the man with the messed-up love story.“I heard about Lucy’s death,” he continued softly. “I am so sorry.”Grandma’s face changed instantly.“It is your entire family that is dead!” she snapped. “My daughter is well and alive, Smith. Now get your silly self out of here before I call the cops on you!”Smith, that name again. It rang louder this time.Didn’t Mum say something about Smith being our father?I slowly turned my head back to him, then to Grandma, and gasped.No way.No actual way.“Lucy is alive?” he asked, completely thrown off. “How? I saw her grave. I even got her flowers just last month when I went visiting.”Okay.Something is very wrong here.Very, very wrong.Because right now, this is

Chapter: CHAPTER 79IRISH’s POV“You look pretty.”Jimmy said it so casually, like he wasn’t capable of ruining my entire emotional stability with just one sentence.He was leaning against the table, taking a lazy bite of an apple like he had no problems in this world.What do they say about apples again?Exactly, temptation.And this one?Walking, talking temptation with zero self-control.I rolled my eyes slightly, but inside? My stupid heart did one small flip.“I was able to get hold of the person who took the video of us,” he continued, tossing the apple up and catching it like a bored rich boy. “It was Lilly. Your jealous girlfriend.”He winked.I blinked. Then blinked again.That girl.That damn girl will never mind her business.If I still had my “Idris balls” on, I would have scratched her face without blinking.“Of course it’s Lilly,” I muttered. “That girl needs a full-time job.”Jimmy chuckled softly, clearly enjoying my irritation.I didn’t even bother responding again.Instead, I turned tow

She started going through it immediately.“Damn!” she exclaimed. “How did they even get a video of this?”She kept scrolling, her face shifting between shock and amusement.“Just breathe, okay,” she added, patting my shoulder like I was about to faint. “You weren’t called a thief or a murderer. Just some homophobic maggots calling you out. It’s nothing serious. The heart knows what it wants. There is nothing wrong with being gay.”For a second… just one second… I had to pause and mentally check my body.Because what the actual fuck is she saying?I slowly turned my head to look at her.If confusion had a face, it would be mine.I shot her a look, what are you even saying right now’?She caught it instantly and mimicked zipping her mouth with an invisible key.Good.

You won’t like the outcome.”I almost added that Diego was the kind of man who could slit someone’s throat without blinking, just to scare her straight, but that would be giving away information I wasn’t ready to explain.She held my hands like we were in some emotional Nollywood scene. If she weren’t my mum, I would have rolled my eyes so hard they’d fall out.“Diego, how did you meet him? He is such a nice, handsome man.”And there she goes again. Wiggling her brows like a teenager.This woman has no shame, but I dare not say that loud.“Mum,” I said slowly, already tired, “just forget about it. Just behave and forget about Smith. You will do that for us, right?”She nodded quickly, like a child being promised sweets, then pulled me into a tight hug. Then she whispered, “I think he likes you.”I pulled back immediately. “M

Chapter: CHAPTER 79MAYA“You are forgetting something very important here. Yes, you were there when I had my son. You gave me all the emotional support, but he is my son! He will bear my name. You can’t coerce me to give him your name.”He began to laugh hysterically, the kind that made my skin crawl.He ran upstairs and came back down almost immediately, holding a document in his hands.“Oh, I knew it,” he said while laughing. “I knew you would become ungrateful someday. You cheap slut.”Slut? The word echoed in my ears.Who is this man standing in front of me?Where is John?The sweet man who stayed awake all night when I was pregnant and throwing up. The man who rubbed my feet and kissed my forehead. The man who promised to protect my son and me.This man feels like his evil twin.I dragged the collar of my dress back into place shakily when I noticed his eyes on my neck.

Chapter: CHAPTER 78MAYAI looked away immediately, avoiding his eyes completely.“It doesn’t matter how I feel,” I said quietly. “I’ll be marrying John in four weeks.”The words sounded rehearsed, like I was trying to convince myself more than him. Maybe if I repeated it enough times, it would finally settle inside my chest and stop feeling wrong.If I stopped seeing Jay, stopped hearing his voice, stopped allowing myself to remember what it felt like being in his arms, I would finally focus on the life I built in Ireland.But how do you stop seeing someone you share a child with?“Okay,” he said after a pause. “If that’s what you want, good luck.”His calmness hurt more than anger would have.I wanted a reaction, a fight, something reckless and emotional. Something that sounded like, No, pumpkin, don’t do this. Stay with me. I’ll fix it.Instead, he simply carried Maya into his arms.“I’ll take her to her room.” And then he left.I sat there staring at the empty doorway, feeling stupidly disappointed.

I miss those succulent lips. “I missed you so much, pumpkin.” I whispered in between smooching kisses. Both our dresses were now on the floor, leaving us naked with our bodies gummed up at each other.I hum her up to the soft mattress, spread her legs apart. Shit! Her pussy was dripping wet already. So much that my cork was forcing itself to come out of my pants. The bulge was killing me.I licked her up with my tongue. “Urghhh!!! Jay.”“Yes, moan for me, baby.” Her soft moans were driving me insane. Her eyes were rolling from pleasure. I love how quickly her legs were vibrating. My hand softly caresses her left nipple. She cum, as her pussy juices splashed all over my face. I lost it when she pushed me down, and took my already precum dick into her mouth and suck me. She is fucking good with this, so good. Nobody does it better. I kept thrusting in and

If time could pause, I would leave it right here, just us, no complications, no past, or future.“Come and show me the kitchen,” she said, already getting up. “I need to make food for my daughter before she wakes up.”“Yes, boss.”I led the way, watching her from the corner of my eye. The apron was hanging right where it always was. She grabbed one, and without thinking, I grabbed the other.“What are you doing?” she asked, narrowing her eyes at me.“Helping a gorgeous woman in the kitchen. Your assistant chef is here, ready to take orders.”I gave a small bow, copying the way chefs greet in restaurants. She burst out laughing, the sound filling the space in a way that made me smile as well. I have missed seeing her laugh this hard.“I just want to make something she’ll like,” she said, still smiling.“A

The smile that had been lighting up her face disappeared, replaced with a moody face. It felt like a pinch in my chest.“Of course you are,” I said quickly, reaching out to touch her cheeks. They were soft and fluffy. “Of course you are. You know what, mummy will cancel everything because you are the most important person in the world.”“Yes!”She jumped excitedly, grabbing my hands. We started playing with her toys, most of which I had brought for her. She showed me everything with so much enthusiasm, explaining each toy.

Seeing Jay again after all these years had affected me. I had buried carefully, something I had convinced myself no longer existed. “I’m tired,” I said instead, “I can’t do this right now. Work on your insecurities. I am getting married to you, not him.”John stepped outside, running his hands through his hair in frustration. I watched him go, feeling a dull ache settle in my chest. He didn’t deserve this confusion, this version of me that kept slipping away from him at the slightest trigger. John is a good man. He has always been a good man. And I will not do to him what I did to Ray.I haven’t forgiven myself for that.I walked back into the room slowly and reached for my purse on the makeup table.

The judge was lenient enough to give Lucas life imprisonment. Who would have thought things would end like that?I don’t know why, but I felt sad when I learned about Becky’s death. She was someone I considered a sister for years. But she chose that path. I was tired of living in anger, so I forgave both my mum and dad. Oops! I love the sound of that. And yes, Zoe did the same.

Then, the door opened.Larry walked in and said to the two men watching over them, "My father asked that I show you two something in that smaller room. Come with me."The men followed him, unaware of what was coming. Larry slowed down, let them go inside the small room, then quickly slammed the door shut and locked it. The room had been laced with chemicals strong enough to knock any human unconscious. He wasted no time pulling a small table knife from his back pocket and cutting Captain Smith loose.Captain Smith immediately began untying Alicia, who looked at Larry, confused."We have to leave now, Captain," Larry said urgently. "Before the boys outside come back. I don’t know how long my father will be gone."Captain Smit

I don't want to bore you two with long stories. But I had a DNA test carried out.

I’ve had my men watching him for years... how could this happen? The idiot wants to see me. If he so much as touches a strand of her hair, I’ll make him join his brother.”The way he spoke, so fierce, so unlike the man Tim had known for years, sent a chill through his spine. He swallowed hard, struggling to match the calmness in his voice.“Who are these men? Who is Scar? Uncle, how did you get involved with them? They sound dangerous, and you...

The scar had been stitched up so finely it almost looked like a birthmark. His presence was unnerving."Seems like you needed the sleep," he said with a smirk. "You slept through the whole night. It’s 10 a.m. already. I must say, you are really beautiful. Took after your dad’s good gene, huh?"Alicia furrowed her brows, confused. Who was this man?
