His Favorite Hate
From Bully to Lover
He spent years tormenting her. She spent years trying to forget him. But fate has a twisted sense of humor... and a dangerously possessive heart.
Violet "Vee" Rivers grew up in the shadows—quiet, smart, and the constant target of one boy’s cruelty. Xavier "Zay" Knight was her worst nightmare: cold smirks, cruel words, and the kind of intense gaze that left her burning with humiliation... and something else she could never admit. For years, she believed he hated her. For years, she hated him right back.
Now in college and far from the small town that raised her, Vee is finally free. New city, new campus, new beginning. But her fresh start shatters on day one—when she sees him. Older, sharper, hotter. And still watching her like he owns her.
Zay never forgot her. Never wanted anyone else. And he sure as hell didn’t let her go.
When he sees another man getting too close, Zay snaps—and makes his first move. What starts as obsession turns into a dangerous game of seduction, secrets, and surrender. Vee is no longer the scared girl from the past—but Zay isn’t the same boy either. He’s darker now. And he doesn’t just want her.
He wants every piece of her—mind, body, and soul.
She may hate him… but she won’t be able to stop herself from loving him.
Even if it destroys them both.

Chapter: Chapter 23: PossessionZay’s POVThey say love can be gentle. That it’s soft whispers in the night, warm hands held under starlight, promises whispered like secrets between two souls. But mine? My love for Vee is something else entirely.It’s fire and shadow. It’s fierce and relentless. It’s the kind of love that claws at your insides and refuses to let go.I’ve watched other guys look at her—carefree, casual, like she was just another prize to chase. But I know better. I know Vee. She’s not just anyone. She’s mine.That possessiveness isn’t about control. It’s about protection. About wanting to keep her safe from a world that didn’t deserve her, from anyone who thought they could take her away.Sometimes, when I catch myself watching her from across the room, or feel that sharp sting of jealousy when another guy dares to get close, I remind myself: this isn’t just obsession. This is love. The kind that consumes you whole.Last night, when Ryan tried to ask her out again, I felt my blood turn to ice. The wa

Chapter: Chapter 22: Fighting ShadowsZay’s POVThe night felt heavier than usual, the kind of heavy that sinks into your bones and refuses to let go. I lay awake, staring at the ceiling of my dorm room, the silence swallowing me whole. Vee was asleep beside me, her soft breathing a steady rhythm that somehow both comforted and tormented me.Being with her was everything I wanted—and everything I feared.For years, I hid behind a mask of cruelty, throwing punches with words and actions to keep the real me buried deep. But now, that real me was staring back at me every time I looked at her. Vulnerable, raw, and desperate to make things right.But was it enough?That question haunted me like a ghost. Could I truly be the man she deserved? Could I protect her from the shadows of my past—the anger, the mistakes, the pain I’d caused?I reached over and traced the curve of her jaw, marveling at how real she felt beneath my fingertips. She was mine now—not just in the physical sense, but in the way she had claimed my heart. And

Chapter: Chapter 21: Shadows and LightVee’s POVThe morning sun spilled through the cracked blinds, casting slivers of light across the tangled sheets where Zay and I lay. I was awake before him, listening to the steady rhythm of his breathing, tracing the faint lines of tension that still lingered beneath his skin.Being with Zay wasn’t easy. It never had been, and maybe it never would be. But something about the fragility of this moment made me want to believe we could be more than the mistakes we made.The past wasn’t a ghost I could just wish away, though. It clung to us like shadows—reminding me of everything we’d survived, everything we still needed to face.I traced a lazy finger over his collarbone, feeling the pulse beneath. “Zay,” I whispered, my voice rough with emotion.His eyes fluttered open, revealing that same raw intensity I’d come to know. He reached up, brushing my hair back with a tenderness that made my heart ache. “Hey,” he murmured. “You’re awake.”I nodded, swallowing the lump in my throat. “Yeah.

Chapter: Chapter 20: UnraveledVee’s POVI lay there in the quiet aftermath, tangled in Zay’s arms, my skin still humming from everything we’d just crossed together. The weight of the moment pressed down on me—heavy, terrifying, and somehow... freeing.For years, I thought I knew what Zay was. The boy who laughed while pushing me down. The bully who made me want to disappear. The nightmare I couldn’t shake. But now, as I traced lazy patterns on his chest, feeling the steady rise and fall of his breath beneath my fingertips, I realized how little I actually knew.He was a storm and a calm. A contradiction wrapped in flesh and soul. And somehow, he was mine.My mind spun with a thousand questions I couldn’t voice. What did this mean for us? Could I let him in without breaking? Could I believe he was really here for me—not just the girl he once tormented, but the woman I was becoming?I closed my eyes, trying to anchor myself in the moment. The warmth of his skin, the steady beat of his heart, the quiet sound of his v

Chapter: Chapter 19: Finally OursZay’s POVI never thought this moment would feel so surreal. After all the years of hell I put her through, all the times I pushed her away just to hide what I really wanted, here we were—finally together.Vee was sitting on my bed, the soft glow of the desk lamp casting golden highlights through her curls. Her eyes were wide, vulnerable, and that flicker of hesitation was still there, but beneath it was something new—trust. A fragile kind of hope that she was letting me in.I swallowed the lump in my throat. “Are you sure about this?”She nodded, biting her lip like she was fighting her own doubts. “I’m scared, Zay. But I want this. I want us.”Those words hit me harder than any punch. I reached out, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. “You have no idea how long I’ve waited to hear you say that.”We moved closer, the space between us shrinking with every heartbeat. I could feel the heat radiating off her skin through the thin fabric of her sweater. My fingers trembled as I trac

Chapter: Chapter 18: Breaking and BuildingVee’s POVI never thought I’d find myself standing on the edge like this—teetering between the girl who ran from Zay and the woman who wanted to fall into his arms. But here I was, caught in the middle of something I couldn’t name, much less control.It wasn’t like I woke up one day and decided to forgive him. Or even to like him. Not after all the years he made me feel small, invisible, worthless. No. This was something else—something messy and raw and so damn confusing it left me breathless.The worst part? I wanted it.I wanted him.The way his eyes softened when he looked at me. The way his hand felt like it belonged to me when he finally reached for it. The way my heart slammed against my ribs like a frantic drum, threatening to burst free.I was scared—terrified, even. Scared that opening up would mean getting hurt again. Scared that the walls I’d spent years building would crumble and leave me exposed. But I was also tired. Tired of carrying the weight of everything that happen

Chapter: Chapter 18The moment the door closed behind me, the silence was deafening.No footsteps echoing after me. No soft voice asking me to stay. No warmth of her presence pulling me back in. Just the chill of regret sinking into my bones like ice water.Axle hadn’t said a word since I left her apartment. It was like he’d turned his back on me completely. Not a growl. Not a snarl. Not even that low rumble of disapproval he always gives when I do something he doesn’t like. Nothing.And that silence from him hurt more than I expected. Because it wasn’t just disappointment—it was heartbreak.I knew the second I walked away from her I was making the wrong choice. Hell, I felt it in the way my chest clenched like I’d torn out my own damn heart and left it behind. But I’d convinced myself I was doing the right thing. That I was protecting her. That maybe if I gave her space, she’d be safer… from me, from this world she doesn’t even know exists yet.But every step away from her had felt like a betrayal.I sa

Chapter: Chapter 15The silence was deafening.I stood in the middle of my apartment, staring at the front door Sebastian had walked out of not long ago, my chest rising and falling in uneven breaths. A sick, hollow ache twisted in my stomach, and the air around me felt too still—like even the walls knew something had changed.I didn’t want to cry, but the tears were already forming, burning behind my eyes like a dam about to break.How could he just leave like that? After everything we shared—the rawness, the honesty, the way he held me like I was the only thing that mattered. I thought… I thought we were building something real. Something worth holding on to. But now, he was gone.And I was here. Alone. Again.I wrapped my arms around myself, moving toward the couch like my legs had forgotten how to work properly. Everything felt numb. My skin, my thoughts… even my heart. It was like something had been torn from me and left a gaping wound that no amount of logic could stitch back together.I sank down

Chapter: Chapter 14Audrey’s POVThe weight of Sebastian’s words lingered in the air long after he said them. I’m a werewolf. The Alpha of the Blue Moon pack. You’re my Luna. My mate. The idea was surreal, like something from a storybook or a dream I wasn’t quite awake from yet.I sat on the edge of his bed, heart pounding as the reality settled in. The man I was falling for—the man whose touch sent electric shocks through my body—was bound to a world I barely understood. A world of wolves, packs, destiny, and bonds deeper than anything I’d ever imagined.How was I supposed to feel about that? Excited? Terrified? Both at once?I remembered the way he looked at me—his eyes dark and intense, full of something fierce and protective. There was no denying it: I mattered to him in a way no one ever had. But what did that mean for me? For us?“Are you okay?” Sebastian’s voice broke through my spiraling thoughts. He was watching me, concerned, cautious.I nodded slowly, though inside I was a whirlwind. “I’m... t

Chapter: Chapter 13The park felt different now. Quieter, somehow. As if it had absorbed the lingering tension and hope we left behind on that weathered bench beneath the swaying tree limbs. I kept thinking about the way Sebastian had looked at me, as though I was the only person in the world who mattered. And I wanted—so badly—to believe that was true. But the moment we stepped back into the city’s rhythm, the spell started to fade. I walked slightly ahead of him on the way back to his car, not because I was trying to get away, but because I was afraid if I looked at him too long, I'd start asking questions I wasn’t sure I was ready to hear the answers to. What did he mean when he said there was more to him than I knew? Why did his touch always seem to burn deeper than anyone else's ever had? And why did a piece of me feel like I’d always been waiting for him? I hated feeling uncertain. The bakery, my little world of flour and butter and sugar, made sense. Ingredients followed rules. Heat transform

Chapter: Chapter 12Sebastian This woman is going to be the death of me. My Mate. She looks so beautiful standing next to me where she belongs, with her cute smile and the little barely there dimple. I swear I tried my best to to not think of this gorgeous human but Axle my wolf just would not allow it knowing she was my destined Mate. Her enticing smell of Vanilla and honey has filled my mind for days. I am a werewolf. The Alpha of the Blue Moon pack to be exact. We are the strongest and largest pack in the states. I thought I would never find her my Mate. For years I looked and gave up thinking I just wasn't destined to have my Luna. I still can't believe I found her and it's even harder finding out she is a human. It's rare for a werewolf and a human to be destined. It makes things more complicated. What will she think when she finds out? I damn sure will never be able to leave her behind now that we have started the bond. Axle just wouldn't let up and forced himself to take over once the little min

Chapter: Chapter 11After her mother left, Audrey took a shaky breath, the silence settling uncomfortably in the air. She glanced down at the counter, her hands trembling slightly as she reached for the tray of pastries she'd been arranging. She was trying to keep her composure, to shove down the feelings of inadequacy that her mother's words had unearthed. But Sebastian wasn't having it. He placed his hand over hers, stilling her movements, his touch warm and grounding. "Hey," he said gently. "You don't have to hide how that made you feel." Audrey blinked, glancing up at him, her defenses starting to crumble. She tried to pull her hand away, but he held her firm, his gaze steady and unwavering. "I've known you only a short time, Audrey, but I can already see you have a strength your mother can't see. And, I hate to break it to you, but she's wrong. About everything." She forced a smile, but it didn't reach her eyes. "It's... it's just something I've gotten used to. Hearing things like that from her
