Alex's POV

“Hayden… don’t do anything stupid!”

I blocked his path, but my strength was no match for his. He shoved me aside and stormed out.

By the time I scrambled to my feet, he was already gone.

I ran after him, but his car was already pulling out of the hotel driveway by the time I burst outside.

“Fuck…”

I’d left the key to the second car back in my suite. Going back for it would mean losing him completely. I dialed his number immediately—straight to voicemail.

“For fuck’s sake, Hayden!” I

  • Forsaken by the Moongoddess    Where It Didn’t Heal

    Abby’s POV “How did this happen? You have…” I swallowed the rest of the words as I took in the position of the wound, just beneath his ribs. The shape…It dawned on me.The stab he had taken for me… when Freya tried to kill me.My chest tightened as I stared at it.The flesh hadn’t closed. It was still raw, the edges darkened and slightly swollen, like his body was trying and failing to heal it.“Hayden…” His name slipped from my lips as my hands moved instinctively toward the wound.“It’s nothing serious…”“It is,” I cut in, my eyes fixed on the wound. “You should have healed by now. Why is it taking this long?”The question came out before I could stop it.I knew how fast he healed. He was an Alpha, for Goddess’ sake.“It should have,” he admitted quietly, staring down at the wound. “But… there’s dark magic involved.”My brow pulled. “Dark magic?”“A witch I know checked it,” he continued. “She found traces in my bloodstream. It’s slowing the healing.”My stomach dropped.The mem

  • Forsaken by the Moongoddess    For His Kids

    Abby’s POV “It’s from her old pack… they wanted me to fund a project she had envisioned… a foundation for aged wolves and orphaned children.”I hadn’t asked for an explanation, so I didn’t understand why he was giving one.“It was her idea… something she started before she passed away. Her pack wants to see it through in her memory.”My eyes widened.“Amara’s dead?”He nodded.I blinked, still trying to process it.“I’m sorry about that…” I said quietly. “She helped Clara and me escape. I’ll never forget that.”“Yeah… she told me,” he said. “When I went looking for you there.”I studied him, noticing the way his jaw ticked. Jessica had once mentioned that Amara was his first love.The loss must have stayed with him.I didn’t know why it mattered to me.But it did. And before I could stop it, the question slipped out.“You still love her?”It was a ridiculous question. I knew that.But I needed to hear the answer.He had once punished me for breaking a cup she gave him… even lied abo

  • Forsaken by the Moongoddess    The Father He Chooses to Be

    Abby’s POV “Mommy, look! It's Gabby's dollhouse!” Amy squealed, running toward a corner of the massive living room that had been transformed into a small play area.A soft mat covered the floor, and a portable projector cast bright cartoons across a wide section of the wall, turning it into a quiet viewing space.I knew this wasn’t part of the hotel’s standard setup. This was deliberate.My gaze shifted.At another corner, a small indoor tent had been set up, draped in soft colourful fabric like a child’s private hideout. Carefully selected toys of different sizes were arranged neatly beside it, as though someone had thought through every detail.I slipped my hand into my back pocket and pressed my lips into a thin line, taking in everything.It wasn’t the setup that unsettled me. It was the thought behind it.Hayden had gone out of his way to do this for them?Amy’s excited voice cut my thoughts short.“Ash!” she called, already kneeling. “Look! It’s Peppa’s car!”Asher didn’t move

  • Forsaken by the Moongoddess    The Presidential Suite

    Abby’s POV I pretended I wasn’t listening as the kids bombarded Hayden with questions. I wasn’t going to save him from Asher either. He should learn what it takes to handle a child so much like him.But when Asher asked where we were going, Hayden answered.“We’re going to my… apartment.”My brow pulled slightly.What?I thought he would take them somewhere fun—an amusement park, a zoo… something appropriate for their age.Hayden really wasn’t thinking this through.“Your house?” Asher asked immediately. “We’re going to your house?”He smiled faintly. “Not my house. The hotel I’m staying in.”I almost sighed.Not only was he planning to keep my kids indoors like they were guests at a business meeting, but this also meant both of us would be too close to each other.Honestly, I wished Ruby had been well enough to go with them. Asher and Amy kept firing questions at him until he finally pulled into the hotel.It was one of the most luxurious in the city, similar to where we stayed at

  • Forsaken by the Moongoddess    The First Step Toward Trust

    Hayden’s POV The door opened, and Asher’s voice came first.“Oh… it’s the bad man again.”That hadn’t changed. Even the few times I came around to the restaurant … he never forgot.He peeked out from behind the leg of the maid that opened the door.The maid greeted me, then stepped aside and walked off, leaving him there.Just the two of us.I exhaled quietly and crouched to his level.Same eyes. Same stare. Too much of me in him to ignore.My jaw tightened for a second before I let it go.“Hey, Asher,” I said, keeping my voice low.He frowned immediately.I let out a small breath and reached for the bag in my hand. I had gotten a few toys yesterday after searching online for things three-year-olds usually liked. Alex had reminded me that Hayes loved racing cars and building blocks… so I hoped Asher would too.“I got you something,” I said gently. “You can have these.”I showed him the toys.He didn’t even look at them properly. “I don’t want,” he said, backing slightly. “You’re bad

  • Forsaken by the Moongoddess    Still Pulled to Him

    Abby’s POV I let out a slow breath as Hayden walked away from the fight. I hadn’t expected that from him. Not with how egotistical he could be.But walking away like that… when he’d been challenged? It tugged at something in me.Relief came first.Derek was reckless for throwing that challenge. He knew he stood no chance against Hayden, not without doing something desperate… something that would break the rules and get him into trouble with the council again.But beneath that relief… something soft and unsettling pulled at me as I stared at the entrance Hayden had just walked out through.“Stay away from her!”Derek’s voice snapped me out of it. He was shouting toward the door, but Hayden had already left with his Beta.My hands clenched at my sides as I turned to him sharply.“What were you thinking? Challenging Hayden to a duel? That wasn’t boldness, Derek… it was stupidity.”His amber eyes locked onto mine, simmering with quiet anger and the hurt he refused to hide.I swallowed.“

She'd warned us to run as far as we could, that Liam would be coming for us the second he realized we were gone.Clara and I pushed deeper into the thick woods, ducki

I don’t care what you do to her.” The lie that tasted like ash in my mouth.“Really?” He dragged the blade deeper into Amara’s skin. “You don’t care about her?”Blood spilled. Amara cried out the sound ripped straight through

I flinched hard and I couldn’t even help it as an alpha.“Take the fucking thing away!” I yelled.The pack nurse froze, her breath catchin
