Se connecterAlexander’s P.O.V. (Continued)The gratitude for Cody in her voice was evident, but it only made me feel more heartbroken.But I was also heartbroken for Hazel.She trusted so much, and this is how Cody kept her trust.“Tell her,” Velan roared at the back of my mind in desperation.Hazel was flustered by our proximity, but all I could see was my mother’s heartbroken face back then when she learned about my father’s infidelity.They were not fated mates, and my father took advantage of this fact, had an affair with Cody’s mother, and when my mother learned about that…..I saw my mother’s face in Hazel, and it broke me more than it should.His mother turned into a different person after she learned about Cody’s existence.“I don’t know why you are saying all this now, Alex. You are engaged to Janet, and I am already married to Cody. This….. this rejection is going to bring peace and harmony for everyone.” Hazel continued speaking in the same flustered way, but it only made me tighten my
Janet’s P.O.V. (Continued)“How much did you drink?” he asked me, annoyingly, instead of answering me.“Not much. J…. just a few glasses.” I slurred while making gestures, grinning foolishly.His face was still cold, which faltered my grin.Even in this toxic state, I heard the breaking sound of my heart.I did not make any sound again and let him drag me out of the bar. The noise faded with every step, but the storm inside me raged.Why is loving someone so painful?I didn’t ask for stars or the whole wealth of the planet.I just wanted Cody to even look at me once, just once, and tell me th…. That he also likes me in the same way.I opened the window of the car and let the cold night air slap my face to sober me up.He was driving the car, sitting not far from me, but it seemed like a distance between both poles.Tears fell silently, and I let them.I had no strength left to fight with him.Everything…Everything in this relationship was wrong.Cody and I met first and became friend
Alexander’s P.O.V. (Continued)“I am fine now, Alpha. Thanks for asking.” She used my formal title to reply to me, lowering her gaze as if she were avoiding my gaze.The sharp pain hit my chest, but I clenched my fists tightly to suppress that pain.Good thing that my hands were still inside my pockets.“It’s good,” I mumbled and looked around.Two gardeners were working at a distance, chattering about something while smiling, still busy with their work.“I will join the hospital from tomorrow onwards.” She told me further in a low voice.My jaw clenched tightly.It meant that her wolf is healed fully.I saw her after five days, and she was telling me that she was ready for the rejection.“You are so eager to get rid of me, huh?” I asked her tauntingly, trying to suppress my anger.I knew that it was of no use.This was inevitable, but it still hurt. Why is everyone in the world so eager to hurt me?First, Dad asked me to engage with Janet and get married for the sake of the pack.Now
Hazel’s P.O.V. (Continued)“I….. I had conflicts with people there because of the absence of wolf, but I don’t remember offending someone to the extent where they want to kill me this badly.” I answered him truthfully.I really didn’t have any name in my mind that I could relate to those attacks on me.He took a deep breath but didn’t say a word again.The silence was comfortable between us, and I let this moment let me be a bit greedy.I had relief on myself all myself.Alexander’s sudden scolding, but worrying and care for me in his voice, made me feel warm.After some time, he slowly released his grip on my body and lifted his head.“How is your wolf doing?” he asked me calmly, but didn’t look at me.I stiffened but took a deep breath.“She is still sleeping,” I told him, and slowly moved away from him. Sitting on his lap for long is dangerous for both of us.“Let her heal first, and then we will go with the rejection.” The world went still around me as soon as his words fell on my
Hazel’s P.O.V. (Continued)“Let’s go?” I asked him in a low voice, stopping at a distance from him.He didn’t answer me, but took my bag from me and then grabbed my hand.I flinched at his sudden movement, but my body relaxed immediately at his touch.I looked in confusion when he started dragging me away from the hospital.“You….. you need to see Dr. Williams, right?” I asked him in confusion while walking beside him.“He is in surgery right now. I will come back some other time.” He muttered angrily, but his hold on my hand stayed tight.I sighed in my heart and continued walking with him.“You are still healing. Why did you leave the hospital?” he asked me in a low but angry voice.“It….. it was too boring to…. To stay in bed all day and just scroll on social media.” I admitted truthfully, keeping my voice, and also hung my head a little low.“So, you got bored, huh?” He asked me sarcastically.I wanted to retort but kept my mouth shut.He was still my alpha, and for some unknown r
Alexander’s P.O.V. (Continued)“I have two surgeries scheduled for this evening, and Hazel is also getting discharged. Can we talk after I finish my surgeries?” Cody asked me politely through mind-link.I wanted to yell at him, but I understood the nature of his job very well.“Very well then. Tell me whenever we will be free,” I instructed him again sternly before cutting off the mind-link.I looked at Hunter questioningly when I saw him staring at me.“You need to reconsider your decision to reject your mate bond with her.” He spoke in a serious tone.His suggestion took me off guard, though.“Think about it, Alex. She was attacked twice inside our pack….. our pack…. We are second in security after the royal pack, and yet she was attacked twice. What will happen to her if she goes out of the pack?” Hunter explained, and I just listened to him without thinking about anything else.“Even…. Even though you covered her scent with yours, I was right behind you. She will be in grave dange
Alexander’s P.O.V. (Continued)“I was informed that Hazel got injured this morning, and also she was attacked again in the ward, resulting in her injuries getting worse. That was my fault. I brought this ointment for her as my apology.” I replied to Cody nonchalantly and raised the ointment in his
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
Hazel’s P.O.V. (Continued)“But what if she needs me at any time during the daytime? Full-time jobs need all your concentration and attention to work during working hours, Cody. I want to stay available for her at any time. If I lose one job, I can find another, but Mary?”I stopped and chuckled dr
Alexander’s P.O.V. (Continued)“Brother?” I asked him in confusion, narrowing my eyes in the process.“Cody. He is a doctor here.” He told me, and my eyes widened in surprise.Cody Nickelson, my half-brother, and also the one whom I hated the most.I scoffed and moved towards the closet. “I have no
