FAZER LOGINAlexander’s P.O.V. (Continued)She moved her gaze away, biting her lower lip in the process. It’s a habit.She bit her lower lip when she lies.“We are mates, Hazel. We can feel each other’s emotions very well.” I spoke coldly, still looking at her face with an intense gaze.She stopped biting her lip for a second, then started it again. She was not only scared but anxious too.“I know that you are lying, but I am not pressing you to tell me everything. You have your reasons, and I respect that.” I continued, trying to assure her that I am not going to force her into anything that she doesn’t want to do or to tell.She looked at me immediately – her gaze was now filled with gratitude and pain. Tears were still there.I gulped hard, feeling a tightness in my chest.She was still Cody’s wife, but she trusts me.“You don’t need to leave the pack, Hazel. We are still mates, and for the sake of our mates, we need to stay close to each other.” I spoke calmly, suppressing the storm of emotio
Hazel’s P.O.V.I shifted uncomfortably on the chair, looking here and there but not at Alexander, who was busy on a phone call near the window.It was a work call. So, I didn’t try to listen to him.Cody got a call from the hospital. So, he left me at Alexander’s office as Alexander demanded my presence here.I waited for him to finish the phone call, but I was dreading the worst.Will he ask me to leave the pack?Cody told me that Hunter interrogated the kidnapper.What did the kidnapper tell him? Did he tell him about his employer or the reason why he wanted to kidnap me?There were so many questions in my mind, but more than that…I was scared of what I was going to do next.Alexander finished his call and slowly walked towards me.I still didn’t look at him but continued fidgeting with my fingers on my lap.I gasped aloud when he suddenly wrapped his hand around my upper chest from behind and put his chin on my shoulder.“A….lex.” I spoke fearfully, dreading that someone would ent
Hazel’s P.O.V. (Continued)“I have already called Dr. Nelson, your treating doctor. You didn’t sustain any severe injury, and the effect of the drug has also worn off.” The nurse continued gently.“If Dr. Nelson says that you are good to go, you can get the discharge, too. I have also informed Dr. Nickelson.” She added it and gave me a small nod in the end.“Thank you so much for all your help, sis. Ca…. can you give me some water?” I asked her in the same hoarse voice, feeling thirsty.“Yeah, of course.” She chirped and immediately poured a glass of water for me.At the same time, Dr. Nelson entered the room and smiled gently when our gazes met.“How are you feeling now, Mrs. Nickelson?” he asked me gently."Weak and parched,” I replied truthfully.The nurse giggled and gave me a glass of water.I took the glass with a look of gratitude and finished the whole glass in one go; the warmth of the water soothed my aching throat.The nurse took the glass from me and stepped away.“Let me
Janet’s P.O.V. (Continued)“You ….. you are actually believing his words?” I asked him in disbelief, hurt evident in my voice.“Shouldn’t I be?” He retorted, stabbing my heart with his words.I blinked, trying to believe th…. That he is also doubting me.Alexander is my fiancée, and Cody is my friend.Yet no one believes in me. They both are doubting me for the crime that I didn’t do.“You targeted Hazel for what?” He asked me aggressively.I couldn’t say a word in reply, just looked at him with a hurtful gaze.“You made her do overtime. I …. I thought it was Alex who was troubling her because of his grudge against me. I didn’t question because I didn’t want things to get more problematic for Hazel. It turned out that I gave you the wrong impression of not paying attention to Hazel.” He spoke coldly, looking at me with so much resentment that I felt as if he were stabbing my heart repeatedly.“Stay away from her, Janet. Hazel is my wife. I married her willingly and promised her that I
Alexander’s P.O.V.“Why did you call us here? Has something happened?” Janet asked me curiously while coming to my office with Cody.I furrowed my brow, surprised by their being together. Cody took a step away from Janet, looking a bit uncomfortable, but also looked at me questioningly.“Something did happen, Janet, and I am sure that Cody has already told you about that,” I replied to her calmly while sitting back on my chair, gesturing for him to take a chair in front of me.“You mean that attack on Hazel?” she asked again, still curious, while taking a chair in front of me across the desk.Cody also took the chair, but his expression went grim.“Yes. We caught the attacker, and he admitted that someone paid him a hefty sum to kidnap Hazel. He has Hazel’s photo.” I told them briefly, observing their expressions and body language at the same time.“Who can do this to Hazel? I don’t think that she has any enemies in our pack?” Janet asked while knitting her brows with a serious expres
Alexander’s P.O.V.“You broke his spine, five ribs, and his hip bone is also fractured. You really used all your strength on him.” Hunter reported to me about the attackers’ condition as soon as I entered the base.I scoffed and gave him a knowing look with a cold smirk. He rolled his eyes but continued walking inside the base with me.Generally, I should have sent him to the dungeons, but he attacked my mate.So, Hunter brought him to a private prison where I lock up some important criminals. This was in the basement of the packhouse, but many of the warriors living there did not know about it. We built it in the first of my reign, secret from everyone, including my father.“He still doesn’t know what is coming to him next?” I muttered angrily while storming towards the cell where he was right now.Hunter chuckled behind me, but I didn’t say anything to him. My blood was boiling in my veins, and Velan wanted to kill that attacker by his bare hands.But I needed the answers.There is
Hazel became more anxious when she noticed anger pooling in Alexander’s eyes. She thought that he was now bothered by her being wolf-less.On the contrary, Alexander was confused by her presence here, and anger filled his heart when he saw how close Cody was to his mate.Velan was ready to rip Cody
Cody was still holding Hazel's hand. He squeezed her hand gently, comforting her that everything would be okay and he was with her.Hazel smiled tightly, but the restlessness that both she and Xyla were feeling didn’t let her relax a bit.Cody felt helpless in front of her emotional turmoil. He wis
No one’s P.O.V.Cody took Hazel’s hand and intertwined their fingers. He could feel how anxious she was, and why not???She was going to meet his family for the first time. “Everything will be okay. We are together in this, remember?” Cody still comforted Hazel, who was now a bundle of nervousness.
Alexander’s P.O.V. (Continued)“Don’t give me that look, Hunter. I am not the first wolf who found his fated mate.” I grumbled, glaring hard at him angrily.“Who is she? Where is she?” he asked me hurriedly, straightening his body, leaning towards the desk.I pursed my lips into a thin line, feelin
