My heart stops. When Calder told me I'll be working closely with the company's top architect, he didn't mention that was Zephyr.

And I agreed…

Now, I'll be assisting HIM… for the next month… working closely with him. Every day. I feel the words land in my chest like stones. My face remains blank. My voice stays steady.

"Of course," I say. "Where's my desk?"

Calder gestures to a small workspace near the window. It's close. Too close to his office. I can literally see the door from here.

  • MATED TO MY BESTIE'S ALPHA DADDY   Chapter 83 - RAYLYNN

    Dee steps out of the shadows of the stairwell, a cigarette dangling from her fingers. She's leaning against the wall like she's been there for hours, like she's been watching the whole thing unfold. Her red hair is pulled back, and her sharp eyes are fixed on Terry with an expression that could cut glass.Neither of us noticed her. Neither of us heard her come in."Dee—" Terry starts."Shut up." She takes a long drag of her cigarette, exhales the smoke slowly. "I wasn't talking to you."She walks toward us, her heels clicking against the concrete floor. She stops in front of Terry and looks him up and down like he's something she scraped off her shoe."You know what I've noticed about you, Terry?" She doesn't wait for an answer. "You're a coward. You're the kind of guy who talks big when no one's watching, but the second someone calls you out, you crumble."Terry's face reddens. "You don't know what you're talking about.""I know exactly what I'm talking about." Dee takes another drag

    Zephyr parks across the street from my apartment building. He doesn't turn off the engine."I'll wait here," he says.I look at him. "You're not coming up?""She asked to see you. Not me." He reaches for my hand. "If you need me, call. I'll be there in seconds."I nod. I squeeze his hand. Then I get out of the car.The building is quiet. The elevator takes forever. My heart is pounding so hard I can feel it in my throat.I reach my door. I stop.She's in there. She wants to talk. She might forgive me. She might not.I take a breath. I open the door.Ivy is sitting on my couch.She's wearing one of my sweatshirts—the grey one with the holes in the sleeves. Her hair is pulled back. Her face is pale. But her eyes—her eyes are clear.She looks up when I walk in.We stare at each other. Neither of us speaks. The silence is heavy, thick with everything we haven't said.Then Ivy stands."You're late," she says.I blink. "What?""I've been waiting for twenty minutes. You're never late.""I—"

    "I want to talk. That's all." She pauses. "I want to be close to Ivy. She's my niece. My blood. I've missed so much of her life. I just want a chance to be part of it again.""Again?? Last time you were near Ivy, you used her to drug my drink. The poor girl didn't know and drank the laced drink. You're the reason her wolf got hurt that night! You're the reason why her healing is always so slow! You're not getting anywhere near my daughter.""I understand your hesitation. But I'm not asking for permission. I'm telling you what I want." Her voice hardens. "And in return, I'll behave. I'll stay out of your way. I won't cause any more problems.""And if I refuse?""Then I send the video." Another pause. "I'm sending it to you now. Just so you understand what I have."My phone buzzes. I pull it away from my ear and open the message. A video file. I tap it.The footage is grainy but clear enough. Raylynn in the alley. The three men. The shift. The blood. The way she tore them apart like the

    Ivy is screaming behind me."—trying to trap you! She's a liar! She's been lying to all of us!""Ivy." I turn. My voice is hoarse. "Ivy, stop."She doesn't stop. She's on her knees in the middle of the living room, surrounded by Raylynn's scattered belongings. The pregnancy tests are on the floor. The box is crushed. One of the tests is broken."She's a slut!" Ivy's voice cracks. "She's a manipulative, lying slut who's been sleeping with you behind my back!""The tests were negative.""I don't believe you!""I don't care what you believe. They were negative. She's not pregnant."Ivy stares at me. Her face is a mess—tears, snot, mascara running down her cheeks. She looks like a child. A broken, furious child."Then why did she have them?" she demands. "Why was she taking pregnancy tests if she wasn't trying to trap you?""Because she missed her period. Because she was scared. Because—" I stop. I don't owe her an explanation. But she's my daughter. She deserves something."Because she t

    I'm walking away from Ivy's room when I hear Zephyr's footsteps behind me."Raylynn. Raylynn, wait."I don't stop. I can't stop. If I stop, I'll fall apart. If I stop, I'll scream. If I stop, I'll do something I regret."Raylynn, please."His hand catches my arm. I pull away."Don't." My voice is raw. "Don't touch me."He flinches. I've never seen him flinch before. But I don't care. I can't care."I'm sorry," he says. "I'm so sorry.""For what? For bringing me here? For letting her throw that iPad at me? For not defending me?""I did defend you—""After." I turn to face him. "After she called me a slut. After she threw things at me. You defended me after.""I didn't know what to do.""She's your daughter.""I know.""She hates me.""She doesn't—""She does." My voice breaks. "She hates me. And I don't blame her."He reaches for me again. This time, I let him. I let him pull me into his arms. I let him hold me. But I don't feel anything. I'm numb."I love you," he whispers.The words l

    "Pick up. Pick up. Pick up."The words tumble out of me like a prayer I don't believe in. I press the phone harder against my ear, as if that will make her answer faster. The road blurs past—dark trees, dark sky, dark everything—and I don't care about speed limits or traffic laws or anything except getting to her.The phone rings again. And again."Fuck!" I slam my hand against the steering wheel. The horn blares. I press redial. It rings. Voicemail."Raylynn, it's me. I'm on my way. Just—" I stop. What do I say? What can I say that will make any of this better? "Just stay there. I'll be there soon."I hang up. I press the gas pedal harder.My wolf is pacing, growling, frantic. He can feel my anxiety, my fear, my desperation. He wants to shift, wants to run, wants to tear through the night until we find her. But I can't. I'm too far. Too slow. Too useless.'You left her alone,' my wolf snarls. 'You let her go alone.''I know.''She needed us. She needed us and we weren't there.''I kn
