Zed’s POV

“What?” I asked, clearing my throat. “I didn’t quite get the question.”

Elder Marius leaned forward, folding his wrinkled hands on the table. “Alpha Zed, we asked if you’ve considered letting the temple priestesses perform the deep soul cleansing for the Luna before the burial. Given how mysterious her death was… we must be certain.”

I nodded slowly, eyes narrowing. “I have considered it. But I don’t want any rituals that would dishonor her. She was still my mother. If we must do a c

Zed doesn’t deserve the Alpha post as he has no interest in investigating his mother’s death. No interest in investigating about River. Such disappointing character.

Didn’t he ask someone to find everything about River for the past 6 years. How come there is no news on that. Amber found everything in a few days whereas he didn’t find anything. What a dumb Alpha.

  • Sleeping with the Alpha Who Despised Me   Chapter 236

    River POVThe sun was just rising, painting the sky with pale shades of pink and gold. I stood at the edge of the cliff near our home, the sound of waves crashing below mingling with the soft morning breeze. Steven and Lilian played near the sand, their laughter bright, innocent. I watched them, my heart swelling and aching all at once.The house behind me was quiet for the first time in months. Quiet, but alive with memories of Zed, his voice, his touch, the way he would laugh at even the smallest things Steven did. I could still feel him around me, in every heartbeat, in every breath I took.“Mommy!” Steven’s voice pulled me back. I turned, smiling as he ran toward me, Lilian’s tiny hand clasped in his. They were chasing each other, stumbling in the sand, and for a fleeting moment, the world felt perfect again.I knelt, brushing Steven’s hair from his forehead. “Careful, baby,” I said softly, trying not to let my voice shake. “Don’t fall.”Steven grinned, his teeth showing, and look

  • Sleeping with the Alpha Who Despised Me   Chapter 235

    River POVThe air smelled of fresh flowers and salt from the nearby beach, mingling in a way that made my chest ache with joy. Sunlight poured through the open windows of the clearing where our pack had gathered, glinting off the soft white of the wedding decorations. Everything was perfect. For a moment, I let myself believe that nothing could touch this day.Steven clutched Lilian’s tiny hand, walking carefully down the aisle beside the flower petals. His grin was bright, his excitement contagious. “Look, Mom! I’m holding her hand!” he whispered, eyes sparkling with pride. Lilian gurgled softly in his tiny grip, and my heart swelled so much it felt like it might burst.And then I saw him. Zed. Standing at the end of the aisle, tall, strong, golden eyes fixed on me, every ounce of his presence radiating love, protection, and something fierce I’d never stop needing. My stomach flipped, my throat tight, and I found myself smiling through tears I hadn’t realized had formed.The pack el

    Zed POVThe air in the delivery room was thick with antiseptic and tension, buzzing with the urgent energy of doctors and nurses moving around us. River’s hands gripped mine so tightly I could feel her pulse through her fingers, her knuckles white, nails biting into my skin. Every groan, every gasp, every sharp intake of breath she made tore through me, a wolfish ache in my chest I couldn’t suppress.“Breathe, River. You’ve got this. I’m right here,” I whispered, leaning close so my forehead rested against hers. Her hair clung to her sweat-damp forehead, and I brushed it back gently, trying to offer her a moment of comfort amid the chaos.“I… I can’t,” she gasped, voice trembling, tears sliding down her cheeks. “It hurts… it hurts so much…”“Yes, it hurts,” I murmured, kissing her temple. “I know it does. But look at me. You are bringing our daughter into this world. You are stronger than anything, River. I swear, I will never leave your side. Not now, not ever.”Her lips quivered, a

    Zed POVThe sun was warm against my back, the smell of salt tangling with the crisp ocean breeze. I glanced down at River as she lay stretched on the mat, her hair fanned around her like a halo, eyes hidden behind dark sunglasses, a soft smile on her face as she watched Steven and me play beach ball.He laughed, sprinting barefoot on the sand, and I feigned a wild swing before hitting the ball a little too hard. I didn’t mean it, but the next thing I knew, Steven stumbled, arms flailing, and fell backward into the sand with a little yelp.River groaned behind her shades. “Zed!” she called, springing to her feet, grabbing a towel from the mat. “Be careful! Look at him! My poor baby!”I chuckled and jogged over, brushing the sand from Steven’s hair. “He’s fine. Don’t worry, baby. He’s tougher than you think.”“You think that’s funny?” she shot back, walking toward us, towel in hand. Her voice had that sharp edge, but I caught the playful glint in her eyes.Steven giggled, holding his f

  • Sleeping with the Alpha Who Despised Me   Chapter 232

    River POVThe corridors of the pack estate felt unusually quiet that morning, the kind of silence that hangs just before a storm breaks, or in this case, before a life changes forever. My hands twisted nervously in the hem of my blouse as I walked toward the lounge. The scent of fresh coffee and polished wood didn’t calm me as it usually did. Today felt heavy with expectation. Today felt important. I had no idea why. Not yet.Zed was already there, leaning casually against the railing, but even from a distance, I could sense the tension in his posture. Not the tense, aggressive sort he sometimes carried, but a quiet, resolute kind of focus. My pulse quickened. Whatever was about to happen, I knew it would change everything.He straightened as I approached, his golden eyes locking onto mine. There was a softness there, but also something unshakably serious.“I’ve been waiting for you,” he said, voice low, carrying that quiet power that always made my knees a little weak.I hesitated,

  • Sleeping with the Alpha Who Despised Me   Chapter 231

    River POV I sat on the edge of the bed, one hand resting lightly on my stomach, feeling the tiny, almost imperceptible flutter of life. The sensation made my chest tighten, a mixture of awe, disbelief, and a fragile hope I hadn’t allowed myself to feel in months.Steven was finally home… Resumes school even.Zed sat nearby, quietly sorting the scattered remnants of Steven’s day: a small stack of coloring books, a pencil case tipped over, crayons rolling across the table. He didn’t crowd me; he never did. He had learned patience these past weeks, showing support without forcing it, moving close enough that his presence was steady and comforting, but not overwhelming. Every so often, his eyes flicked to me, golden and searching, silently asking: Are you ready to let me back in?The baby kicked again, a sharper flutter this time. I gasped, instinctively clutching my stomach. Zed noticed immediately.“Feeling something?” he asked, voice low, almost reverent. He moved closer but didn’t

    River’s POVMy phone tucked between my ear and shoulder while I rummaged through the bottom drawer of my desk, searching for a file that had decided to play hide and seek with me.“The house was just left with finishing touches, thank goodness,” I told Hailey, still shuffling papers around. “They w

    Amber’s POV“Are you sure he’s alone?” I asked, my voice low, calculated.“He got home not too long ago,” the woman on the other end replied. “Before then, no one was around.”“My sister and Hailey?” I pressed.“I only resumed today, but I’m sure they’re at work. Steven should be with Hailey too.”

You meet me here, and then we drive down to Crescent Moon together to get this over with.”I locked the door, balancing the phon
