Chapter 12

Zoey Malik

~•~

Restless.

That was the only word that could describe how I felt.

I kept tossing around on the bed continuously. Whenever I closed my eyes, the only thing I could see was the dungeon.

Images of people being thrown into the dungeon replayed in my head. Their screams and cries for help echoed loudly.

It was just a day until Sean was meant to reveal who the real killer was. But I had no idea if he had even found the person.

He would have told me, rig

    Chapter 22 Conrad Stone ~•~ My blood boiled intensely and my eyes burned with rage as Zoey talked about sleeping with Sean. It affected me more than I ever expected. I was determined to get her back, but when I realized that she was pregnant for me, that determination turned into obsession. I had to move fast before Sean would take her from me. Completely. I didn’t care if he was her second chance mate. I had her first, I was her true mate. And I needed her back. I was ready to do whatever it takes to get her back. The door creaked open again and Sean walked in. As my eyes landed on him, my legs carried me forward before I could even think. The next thing I knew, my fists landed on his face. The impact of the punch made him stagger backwards, slamming against the wall with a low grunt. As he looked up, his jaw was hard and his fists clenched. But he didn’t swing back. I honestly expected him to hit me back. Instead, he looked at me like I was pathetic

    Chapter 21 Zoey Malik ~•~ The truth was that I didn’t want to terminate the pregnancy, I couldn’t do something like that. It was against everything I believed in. I knew I could never go through with it. It was a sin. I only said it because I wanted to push Conrad away. I wanted him to forget about getting back with me, because it was never going to happen. Even if I was pregnant with his child, it didn’t mean that we had to get back together with each other. He was a terrible person and he didn’t deserve a second chance with me. I didn’t want to get dragged into his life because of the unborn baby. Conrad scoffed. “You’re not going to terminate the pregnancy. Even though you hate me so much, my baby didn’t do anything to you.” “Your baby?” I shook my head, letting out a humorless chuckle. “How are you so sure that the baby belongs to you?” I asked, trying to create doubt in his mind. He blinked repeatedly. “What?” He asked with a hint of confusion in his vo

    Chapter 20 Zoey Malik ~•~ “He’s my mate!” I snapped back. “And where is the nurse…or the doctor? I need to leave this place.” I said, trying to stand up with every bit of strength I could get. But my legs bucked the moment I swung them off the bed. I had no choice but to lie down on the bed. Conrad looked at me, his face pale. “It’s not possible for Sean to be your mate. It doesn’t work like that.” He continued, his voice sharp. “I’m sure you can remember vividly when our wolves sensed each other. You were there, right?” I asked, narrowing my eyes on him, my voice faint. He shrugged. “But it still doesn’t make sense. Something like that hasn’t happened before.” He said with a hint of confusion in his voice. “Well, it has happened now. And you have no choice but to accept it.” I replied without any trace of warmth in my voice. I hated it whenever I had to speak to anyone rudely, especially to Conrad. But he left me no choice, he deserved whatever reaction he

    Chapter 19 Zoey Malik ~•~ When my eyes fluttered open, I found myself in a hospital room. The last thing I remembered was standing at the pack house with Selena. As my eyes darted around the room, I flinched when I saw Sean and Conrad sitting on the couch. Why were they both in the room? Where was I? “Oh, you’re awake.” Conrad stood up, his eyes mirroring his relief. “Can you excuse us for a moment? I need to talk to her privately.” He turned to Sean, his voice barely above a whisper. Sean hesitated for a moment, then he stood up, letting out a reluctant sigh. “I don’t care if she’s pregnant for you or not, she’s not staying back.” My lips parted and I blinked. Pregnant? “Am I pregnant?” I muttered, more to myself than them as my hand flew to my stomach. I rubbed my stomach, trying to feel something. But my stomach was flat. So what were they talking about? None of them responded. Conrad just glared at Sean as he walked out of the room. After he clo

    Chapter 18 Conrad Stone ~•~ Wendy killed my fucking best friend and framed my mate for murder? I couldn’t believe my eyes but the evidence was too strong to ignore. Why didn’t I even think of it? Why didn’t I question how quickly she pointed fingers at Zoey? Everything now made sense — she wanted Zoey to be thrown into the dungeon, was upset that I let her go, and was so invested in the case. I was certain that she only accused me of being in love with Zoey during our mating ceremony out of guilt. She was just trying to find a way to push me away. Wendy knew exactly what she was doing. I knew she hated Zoey, but I didn’t think she would go to such lengths to ruin her life. Why did she kill Ethan? Why did she have to waste his life just to frame Zoey? Or did she accidentally kill him and thought it was more convenient to blame Zoey? I needed answers but Wendy was nowhere to be found. “So none of you have seen Wendy?” I asked the elders who stormed out of the pa

  • Alpha’s Regret: Chasing Her Back   17

    Chapter 17 Zoey Malik ~•~ There was chaos in the pack. Everyone was just running around, trying to figure out what was happening. Conrad had already left, but I had no idea where he went. I remained in my chair, waiting for all the chaos to die down. As I sat there, I couldn’t stop thinking about everything. I was meant to feel relieved that Sean had proven my innocence, but I still felt a sinking feeling in my stomach. After all the humiliation, the false accusations, and the judgmental stares, the only thing I got was ‘Zoey is innocent’. Ignoring the lump that had formed in my throat, I swallowed hard. I blinked rapidly as I tried to stop the tears that were threatening to fall down my cheeks. So I suffered for nothing and couldn’t even get a proper apology. I had to leave my pack where I grew up and sign a contract with a stranger all because of nothing. Even if Conrad was too busy to apologize to me, why couldn’t the other members of the pack who were point
