last update publish date: 2026-02-03 21:16:22

Naya’s POV

The moment he held out his hand, my brain stopped.

For a split second, I just stared at it.

Zane’s hand.

They were big, strong and steady.

My heart pounded so loudly in my ears I was so sure everyone could hear it.

Should I take it?

Or maybe this was my chance to run?

Every instinct I had screamed that running was the worst choice I could possibly make.

How does one run from an Alpha King.

From a room full of powerful wolves.

Or from a man who had just announced me as his Luna just t

  • Alpha Zane’s Surrogate   Chapter 145: “I chose Naya!”

    Zane’s POVThe drive felt endless.Every second stretched painfully, like time itself was working against me, dragging its feet while my mind raced ahead, already picturing a hundred different outcomes… none of them good enough, none of them fast enough.“Drive faster,” I snapped, my fingers tapping restlessly against my thigh.Nikolas didn’t even look at me. “We’re already pushing it, Zane.”It wasn’t enough.Nothing felt like enough.By the time the car screeched to a halt in front of the clinic, I didn’t wait. The door barely had time to fully open before I was out, slamming it behind me and storming toward the entrance with a single focus driving every step.Naya.The doors flew open under my push.I didn’t slow down.Didn’t stop.The receptionist barely had time to look up before I passed her, her voice catching in her throat as if she had considered stopping me but thought better of it.Good.Because nothing would have stopped me anyway.I moved through the hallway like I owned

  • Alpha Zane’s Surrogate   Chapter 144: The Fall

    Zane’s POVThere was no ground.At least… that was what it felt like.I stood still, but the world beneath me didn’t feel solid. It felt… uncertain. Like one wrong step would send everything collapsing into nothingness. A thick fog wrapped around me from every direction, swallowing distance, swallowing sound, swallowing everything.I couldn’t see more than a few feet ahead.“Hello?”My voice echoed, but not in the way it should have. It didn’t bounce back with clarity…it dissolved, like it had been absorbed into the mist itself.No answer.I turned slowly, my senses straining, Sagio restless beneath my skin. Something wasn’t right. This wasn’t just a place… it felt like a trap. Like I had been pulled into something I didn’t understand.“Can anyone hear me?” I called again, louder this time.Nothing.Not even wind.Just silence so thick it pressed against my ears.My jaw tightened as unease crept in. I wasn’t used to this…to not knowing, to not being able to control what was around me.

  • Alpha Zane’s Surrogate   Chapter 143: The Breaking Point

    Naya’s POVThere was something almost… normal about the morning.For the first time in what felt like forever, I wasn’t waking up to fear, or pain, or the suffocating weight of unanswered questions pressing against my chest. Just the soft clatter of utensils, the low hum of a kettle, and Winnie’s quiet voice filling the small kitchen.I stood by the counter, slicing vegetables, the rhythmic motion of the knife grounding me in a way I hadn’t realized I needed.Winnie leaned against the opposite side, stirring something in a pot, occasionally glancing at me with that soft, watchful look she’d adopted ever since we got here.We talked. About nothing important. About everything.And for a while… I laughed.A real laugh. Not forced. Not hollow.It startled me more than anything else.Because it felt like me.But then… Just like that…it slipped.My hand slowed mid-slice.My mind drifted.Zane.The way his voice used to wrap around my name. The way his presence filled every space, every sil

  • Alpha Zane’s Surrogate   Chapter 142: “I Love Her!”

    Zane’s POVThe room felt wrong.Not just empty… and so wrong.Like something that once breathed life into it had been violently ripped out, leaving behind a hollow shell that echoed too loudly with silence. I stood at the doorway longer than I should have, my hand still gripping the handle as if I could rewind time by simply not letting go.She was gone.Not taken.Not stolen.Gone.My eyes dragged slowly across the room, searching… hoping… expecting to see her curled up on the bed, annoyed that I had left, ready to throw one of her sharp words at me just so I could breathe again.But there was nothing.Just that wall.That fucking wall.“Zane, I need space. Please don’t look for me.”The words weren’t just written… they were carved into me. Each letter jagged, uneven, soaked in red that stood out violently against the sterile white. For a moment, I couldn’t move. I couldn't even think. My body felt like it had forgotten how to function beyond standing there and staring like a man who

  • Alpha Zane’s Surrogate   Chapter 141: A Shelter For Mother and Child!”

    Naya’s POVThe road stretched endlessly ahead of us, familiar yet distant, like a memory I wasn’t sure I still belonged to.I sat quietly in the back of the cab, my fingers resting over the gentle curve of my stomach, tracing absent circles as the city blurred past the window. Every turn, every building, every flicker of movement outside felt strangely detached…like I was watching a life I used to live instead of one I was still part of. For a fleeting second, doubt crept in, sharp and unwelcome.Had I made the right choice?My hand stilled over my belly.A soft ache tightened in my chest as my thoughts shifted to the tiny life growing inside me. Would my child understand any of this? Would they one day look at me and question why I walked away from their father… why I chose distance instead of fighting harder to stay?The thought lingered longer than I liked.“My lady… are you okay?”Winnie’s voice pulled me back, gentle but laced with worry. I turned to her, forcing a small smile th

  • Alpha Zane’s Surrogate   Chapter 140: “She Left!”

    Zane’s POVThe engine screamed beneath my foot, the sound tearing through the quiet of the pack grounds as I pushed the car harder than I should have. The road blurred, trees and buildings melting into streaks of color that meant nothing to me. All I could see… over and over again was Naya’s face.Her eyes.That look.“I don’t want to be your mate anymore…”It echoed, sharp and relentless, like something lodged deep in my skull.“Zane, slow down!” Nikolas’s voice cut through the chaos, tight with fear as his hand braced against the dashboard. “You’re going to fucking kill someone…”I didn’t respond. Couldn’t. My grip tightened on the steering wheel until my knuckles turned white, jaw clenched so hard it ached. The car surged forward again, faster, reckless.Inside me, Sagio was pacing like a caged beast.Turn back… he growled. Find her. Fix this.“I’m trying,” I muttered under my breath, though I didn’t even know what that meant anymore.“Zane!” Nikolas snapped louder this time. “This

    Zane’s POVI had been restless since dawn.Not the normal kind of restless that came with being Alpha.This was different. It was as if I could feel something was about to go very wrong.My wolf had paced inside me all morning, unsettled, growling without reason.And walking into this council court
