ZOE ELISE

~<>~

“You may leave.”

Alpha King Weston said those three words yesterday evening, hours after his call with Doctor Sarah.

Yes, he allowed me to return to my room for the first time in two days, but even though I lay on my perfect bed, I couldn't get a wink of sleep.

Hell, I barely dared to close my eyes for a few seconds at a time.

Not just because of the endless stream of questions running through my head, but also because my heart wouldn't stop racing.

Even exhaustion couldn't distr

  • Daddy-Sitting The Alpha King   28. The Key

    ALPHA KING WESTON~~“Did you see that smile on her face?”My wolf sighed into my mind the second Zoe walked victoriously out of Maisie’s bedroom.Sarah had let her go, telling her she could take a few hours of rest because she would make sure Maisie was comfortable for a few more hours before she left.“Of course I did. She’s mocking me.” I sighed back to my wolf, leaning into my chair. But my defeat wasn't what worried me most. Perhaps it should have, but ever since Sarah proved me wrong, Zoe had become someone I couldn't let go of…Nor let in.She had become someone I had to hold on to even though she would burn me. She had become the very bone stuck deep in my throat.“Maybe this would be good.” Ray let out, and judging from how low his voice was, even in my head, I could tell even he couldn’t believe his own words. “For you and Maisie.”Before I could call him out on his bullshit, Sarah spoke, catching my attention. “You don’t seem very happy, Alpha King.”Of course I wasn’t.

  • Daddy-Sitting The Alpha King   27. Nightmare

    ZOE ELISE~~My song?Oh, really? I had to resist the urge to roll my eyes. Why would he even bring that up?Why was he so hell-bent on making me out to be someone I wasn't? Or hadn't he heard what Sarah said?Then again, maybe he had.Maybe King Weston had heard the part where the doctor said something must have scared his daughter. That had to be why he mentioned my song.I shot him a dirty look before I could stop myself.But the moment my eyes met his, I caught myself, looking away so fast even I would have believed I was struck by lightning. King Weston wasn't wearing the pleased expression I had seen earlier. Hell, he didn't look pleased at all.Instead, there was something else in his eyes. Something I couldn't quite put my finger on.But it made him look... vulnerable. Almost as though he were a man who couldn't hurt a fly.My eyelids fluttered rapidly as I quickly snapped out of it.What was wrong with me?This was Alpha King Weston. The same man who had threatened to thro

  • Daddy-Sitting The Alpha King   26. Her Song

    ALPHA KING WESTON~~It’s been ten whole days since the nanny began to live in my house.Ten days of watching her. Ten days of wondering if she would ever break like the others… and when she would break.But not once in those ten days had I seen her tremble with raw fear.She had always held it together, nearly driving me mad, if I may add.She had always seemed to find a way to slip through the tests I had prepared for her, and even when she did fail, she would defend herself with no fear in her eyes.Well, until this very moment.There it was.The fear I had been waiting to see.It was written all over her face, in the way her eyes darted between Sarah and me, in the way she struggled to swallow, and in the way she seemed unable to keep her body still.For once, Zoe had nothing smart to say.And I couldn't deny how satisfying it was to see her like this.The past few days had been difficult. Tolerating her presence in my house had taken more restraint than I cared to admit.Every

At least that would be better than facing the full brunt of his wrath.“I don't care about the bet or being homeless,” I thought to myself as I prepared to face King Weston that day.Damn! I couldn't bring myself to ca

  • Daddy-Sitting The Alpha King   24. Royal Prisoner

    ZOE ELISE~~The air in the Alpha King's estate had gotten thicker. Or perhaps I was simply finding it harder to breathe.Either way, things had become considerably worse since that day.The day I foolishly begged for my job.Yes. Foolish.The past two days had proved that beyond any reasonable doubt.If I had thought I was being watched before, I had clearly underestimated what it meant to be under King Weston's suspicion. There were eyes everywhere now. His eyes. EVERYWHERE. Or perhaps I was just imagining them. Either way, I couldn't take three steps without feeling as though someone was waiting to catch me doing something wrong.And since I had been ordered to spend more time with Maisie, it meant I had to spend more time with her father too.A lot more time.I barely had a few minutes to myself within twenty-four hours. Even my breaks felt like stolen moments, and I had started to appreciate the simple pleasure of being able to use the bathroom without wondering if someone w

  • Daddy-Sitting The Alpha King   23. Entry Point

    ALPHA KING WESTON ~~My eyes remained on Zoe, who was still kneeling before me.I was certain I was making a grave mistake by allowing her to stay.A very stupid one, if I might add.But then again, perhaps it wasn't entirely a mistake. Not when I could already imagine the fun I would have once Sarah returned with proof that the girl had hurt my daughter.And she would.I had no doubt about that.When the results came back, I would have everything I needed to deal with Zoe once and for all. But she wouldn't be the only one paying for it.Flora would.That woman had been Lewis's favorite tool for bringing spies into my home. For years, she had found one nanny after another and sent them straight into my daughter's room, all under the pretence of helping me.Ninety-nine nannies.Ninety-nine opportunities for Lewis to get his eyes and ears into my estate.And now, the hundredth had arrived.Zoe might have been the face and the entry point, but this was so much bigger than her.Once I
