Hayden's POV

Her body crashed against mine.

Soft, trembling, warm.

My brain told me to let go, but my hands clutched her tighter, betraying me. We were both frozen in place.

She was wrapped in my arms. I could feel her breath. Shallow. Rapid. Her chest rising and falling against mine. And goddess… I’ve never felt more torn in my life.

I shifted my gaze, forcing it away from the rise of her chest, away from her exposed thigh. I tried to focus on anything else. But damn it, I couldn’t.

She tried to step back, probably out of reflex, but her wet foot slipped again and this time, I heard a soft crack.

She gasped and winced.

Damn it, Abby,” I muttered, catching her before she hit the ground again. This time her body sagged into mine, weaker.

“Are you okay?”

She gripped my arm tightly. “My ankle,” she muttered. “I think I twisted it.”

I didn’t hesitate. Without another word, I scooped her into my arms. Her wet skin pressed against my shirt, soaking through, but I didn’t care. Her arms inst

  • Forsaken by the Moongoddess    The Name That Lingers

    Abby's POV He quietly slipped beside me, careful not to hurt my ankle. Then, without a word, he pulled me into his arms again, warm, steady and protective. One of his hands brushed through my hair in slow, soothing strokes. Back and forth. Over and over.I hadn’t realized how exhausted I was until that moment. The comfort of his touch… the steady rhythm of his heartbeat…Sleep took me before I could stop it.When I woke up, morning light spilled through the curtains. The bed beside me was empty. Hayden wasn’t there.I slowly swung my legs off the bed to test my ankle. A dull ache pulsed through it. Not fully healed. I still couldn’t put my full weight on it.I was just about to try standing when I heard the door open. I raised my brow who could have entered.Then Hayden walked into the bedroom.I let out a breath. I really needed to get used to him having access to my room with that master keycard.“Good morning, Alpha,” I said.He paused, arching a brow. I wasn’t sure why at first.

  • Forsaken by the Moongoddess    Warmth in His Arms

    Abby’s POV It all felt like I had heard Hayden wrong.Him calling me his mate? No… it couldn’t be.And yet here he was tending to my leg like he actually cared. I blinked a few times, wondering if I was dreaming. Had to pinch myself slightly to be sure.But it all felt too real.I caught his eyes wandering over my body, and discomfort prickled down my spine.“Are you feeling cold?” he asked, his voice low and rough.“Yeah,” I said quietly.But the chill wasn’t from the AC. It was from the way I felt uneasy, exposed and unsure of what to make of him. He stood up slowly. I was expecting him to offer me something to cover up. I was uncomfortable being half-naked, injured, and this close to him.He gently nudged me forward and slid behind me on the bed. Then, without warning, his arms wrapped around me from behind.My breath caught.“Are you still feeling cold?” he murmured near my ear.I shook my head.But my whole body was trembling. From the warmth of his chest against my back. From t

    Hayden’s POVAlex stared at me and scoffed. “Don't do something you'll regret, man.”I didn’t answer. Just turned and walked to the bathroom to wash my bleeding hand. The cut was a bit deep, but it would heal before dawn. I grabbed the first aid kit. Alex followed and helped wrap the bandage, tightening it just enough to stop the bleeding.“Any updates on the Ashwolves?” I asked.“No. Still the same. I gave Lucious a few assignments to do. Hopefully, something gives.” He paused. “Soon.”I nodded. “Good.”A knock came at the door. Alex sniffed. “Human.”He opened it. Room service.Lucious must’ve ordered for everyone again. I usually don’t care what they bring, but this time, I needed to be sure.“Did you ask Abby what she wanted,” I said, “or did you just order for her too?”“I think Lucious handled it.” Alex replied.I nodded slowly. “Next time, ask her. I don’t want her to misunderstand me again.”Alex’s brow rose slightly, but I ignored him and walked to the door. “Call the cleaner

  • Forsaken by the Moongoddess    Scars of the Alpha

    Hayden’s POV I stood in front of the mirror in my suite, staring at my reflection. Her words wouldn’t stop echoing in my head.“Because he doesn’t treat people like shit. Like they’re pieces in a game. He listens. He cares. He’s kind-hearted. And not as authoritarian, ruthless, selfish, or inconsiderate as you.”Every word hit like a blade. Sharp. Intentional. Unforgiving. I clenched my fist.I let out a low growl, stepping away from the mirror. Selfish? Inconsiderate? I scoffed bitterly as I walked to the minibar and pulled out a bottle of my favorite cognac. I poured myself a glass and downed it in one go. Then another. The second one burned more, and the sting only fueled the ache inside.With a hiss, I flung the empty glass at the wall. It shattered instantly.How could she be so wrong about me?I ran a hand through my hair, heart thumping like it wanted to escape my chest. My parents flashed in my mind like a curse I couldn't outrun. My mother’s manipulation. My father’s weaknes

  • Forsaken by the Moongoddess    A Missed Step

    Abby's POV I heard Derek curse under his breath. I glanced at Hayden, but he looked away and shifted to a seat farther from us. He didn’t say anything. Just sat there quietly, like it didn’t bother him to see me sitting with Derek. A bartender walked up to him, and he said something briefly. Maybe an order. My heart thudded. I really did not know what to make of Hayden’s silence. It was… disturbing. Really disturbing. Derek must’ve felt it too. He glanced at Hayden, raised a brow like he couldn’t quite believe the sudden quiet. He scoffed softly, then leaned toward me. “You okay?” he asked. I nodded, then glanced back at Hayden. He looked like he was on a call, but when his eyes flicked in my direction, our gazes locked. I couldn’t read anything in them before he looked away. The bartender returned with a drink and placed it on the table beside him. “I don’t trust his quietness,” Derek muttered. “Just call me if he tries anything stupid later, when you’re both inside alone.
