HAYLEE

~<>~

“Are you certain it wasn’t just a dream?”

Gladys, one of the oldest healers in the pack, asked me after I told her about the vivid dream I had before my heart was stomped on for the millionth time in this lifetime.

“I wish to say I am certain, Gladys, but I am not. It felt so real, and a part of me wanted to believe it was real because it would mean my mother was powerful and I could finally get answers from her,” I said to the woman sitting on a stool before me, her old, wise eyes twinkling as she listened to me.

“Well, it could also mean that you are powerful enough to call on the spirits of your ancestors,” Gladys stated with a proud smile.

I have been training with her for the past two days. Although I was initially training with her and Flavia, once again, my heart was stomped on; Flavia had handed me over to Gladys because I needed more than just training.

According to Flavia, I needed teachings that would strengthen who I was… who I truly was. And even though I was b

    HAYLEE~~No.That wasn't my intention. Hurting him or seeing him in pain as he struggled to back against the tree wasn't my intention.But it did feel good.It felt good to see what I could do, even though anger triggered the power. It felt good that I could somehow defend myself after living my entire life in fear.Yet my heart ached for Xalen as he groaned again, and my anger melted, leaving me with a trembling body and a guilt-stricken heart because I knew I had gone too far.“Did you go too far?” A voice in my subconscious filled me. It wasn't Liya. It was more like the evil voice that was hidden in everyone. “I would say it's exactly what you need. He did hurt you. Why not hurt him back? You have the power now, Nerina.”No.That one word started as a thought, but when the thoughts wouldn't stop flooding my mind, I held my head and exhaled, “No!”“Calm down, Haylee.” Liya’s serene voice washed over the toxic one. “You have to control your power, or it will poison your mind.

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~“I am sorry because, despite hurting you the way I did, I still can’t answer the one question that would help us move forward, Hay.”Eventually, I uttered those words even though I knew it wouldn’t be enough to quench the uncontrollable emotions that were burning within Haylee—or at least who she had become. Seeing me with Allison must have broken her to the point where her newfound strengths became dark.I have heard of Healers that go dark. In fact, Healers have been said to be the twin sisters of witches. Both witches and Healers can go dark and do evil, even though they can also be pure and good.Healers like Haylee can give life, but they can also take it.And as much as I love that she was finally finding herself after being tossed around all her life, I wouldn’t want to be the reason she becomes a dark Healer.Haylee looked back at me, her eyes void of the emotions I knew were coursing through her. I could perceive her feelings but couldn’t see them in her

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   156. Princess Allison’s POV (15)

    Princess Allison’s POV~~I saw King Xalen walk into the Healers' building. I saw Haylee storming off and didn't miss how the King I desired chased after her like she was some sort of jewel.Although I couldn't go after them as they left the building, at least not immediately, my heart raced because the last thing I wanted was for them to make up.“We have gotten the samples we needed, Princess Allison. You will get the results in a few hours.”The Healer who had been attending to me walked back into my healing room and said those words to me. From the way she looked at me, I knew she was wondering why I wanted to take the pregnancy test.I mean, most she-wolves don't come in for tests before they confirm their pregnancy themselves. All we had to do was wait a few days after the egg had been fertilized by our mate's sperm, but I couldn't wait any longer.While King Xalen had been sulking, I had been fucking Jose and doing all I could to milk his seeds after making sure he wouldn't r

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~“It’s done, My King.”The servant I put in charge of packing Allison’s belongings spoke as soon as she stepped into the living room, where I had been pacing since I got home.More than five hours had passed since Haylee promised she would return home to me, yet the darkness outside deepened as she remained absent. My thoughts flickered to worry, but I quickly pushed it away.Before now, I had focused solely on the need to free myself of Allison. Frustration simmered within me as I glanced at the packed boxes that had been moved into the living room. Their presence was a reminder of my desperation. I craved Allison’s absence in my home, in my life. Each box removed was one step closer to reclaiming Haylee, a signal that I was choosing her above all—no throne, no title, just her.“Everything she owns has been packed?” I asked, the urgency lacing my words. Every minute felt like an eternity as I waited for Allison's return—hoping I could see her face when she realiz

    HAYLEE~~His mind was made up.I could tell from the unwavering determination in his eyes, but it doesn’t feel right to give up now. Whereas I was dying to be the winner. Perhaps it was the teenager in me that craved this victory, or I was just being petty.It doesn’t matter.I just wouldn’t lose to Allison.Not Xalen, not the throne, and not the power that would be mine once I became queen.I didn’t want Allison or her crazy-ass family to have all of these.“What stunt has she pulled now?” I asked as I encouraged Xalen to read the content of the paper that Allison left behind.Xalen sighed and blurted, “It doesn’t matter to me, Hay. Please, let’s just focus on mending our relationship. I am begging you.”“I want that too, Xay,” I said with undiluted honesty. Aside from the fact that I wanted to win and also find out how the bond between Xalen and me affected the power I carried within me, I also wanted this to work because Xalen loved me.And I might love him too.I have been think

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~At first, I thought I didn’t hear her correctly. I thought my mind was playing tricks on me and my ears were in on the whole plan.However, when Haylee said, “I want your mark, Xay,” my mind instantly shifted to another possibility.I thought to myself, “She is kidding. She has got to be joking.”“Doesn’t look like she is, Xalen,” Theo countered that thought.Yet I laughed, thinking Haylee would join me, but her brows furrowed and she asked, “Did I crack a joke?”“You aren’t trying to be funny?” I had to ask as I stopped laughing, staring back at Haylee, who began to move towards Jodie’s small bathroom to bathe her.“You think it’s funny that I want your mark? I thought you wanted more of me. More of us,” Haylee breathed and focused on getting Jodie ready for bed.“I still want more of us, Haylee, but a few hours ago, you didn’t want to speak with me or even look at me. You tensed up when I hugged you and asked for time, but now you are asking me to mark you? Rig

    HAYLEE~~What difference will that make?Maybe I would have stopped to ask myself that question if my core wasn’t throbbing in ways I have gotten accustomed to, all because of Xalen. Meeting him, living with him, accepting the bond, sleeping by his side, and having his mouth all over me has ripped off the seal of my sexual self, and I loved it.Although the act of bathing Xalen wouldn’t change a thing, I wanted to do it for the sake of my sanity. I couldn’t perceive Allison on him, but bathing him would help me wash my mind off the heartbreaking scene that had decided to make my mind a home.As long as my mind keeps taking me back to that moment, I won’t make it past holding Xalen's hands before I pull back.And I couldn’t let that happen, not if I wanted his mark.Anxiety and desire mixed to become one strong emotion within me as Xalen led me to his new bedroom. I noticed the room was plain and almost empty when we stepped into it, but it wasn’t surprising because Xalen hasn’t bee

    HAYLEE~~It felt so good.Xalen’s body on mine and his arms around me felt so good. His scent invaded my nostrils as he lowered his lips to kiss me deeply, and, goddess, the taste of him! I could feel his masculine, musky taste on my tongue.My needy moans blended perfectly with his deep, growl-like groans.I had no choice but to be vulnerable in Xalen’s arms. He was bigger and physically stronger than I was, and even though I had this dangerous energy source within me, I still felt like a woman in his arms.He was soft and careful, but even his soft touches didn’t prepare me for the sharp pain that I felt when Xalen tried to push his length into me. He was a very big man, and I was a tall, small woman who had never been penetrated before.“We don’t have to do this tonight, Hay,” Xalen muttered into my ear, holding me tightly.Hell, no!I wanted this. I was soaking wet. In fact, I was dripping, and the pain was inevitable. “We have to because I want to, Xay. Make me a woman. Make m

    Princess Allison’s POV ~~If I saw the nightmare having breakfast with the family, I desired to be a part of it, even though every member of that family hated me; I ignored her.Haylee had proven to be my nightmare. The wall I stumbled upon each time I found a way to get myself out of the mess my life had become. Sadly, Haylee had remained a constant, and I didn’t see how I would get rid of her.Not anymore.I have tried killing her. I tried framing her. I tried making everyone hate her. Heck! What more was I supposed to do?“Why is she so indestructible? Who the hell is she?” Nala growled within me as I stormed out of the palace, eyes searching the compound and nose inhaling the air to find the bastard that renewed my hope.He should have left me to rot in defeat or at least let me figure this out on my own instead of using his silly tricks. Silly, futile tricks!“This is getting out of hand, Nala.” I whimpered to my wolf, walking aimlessly around the pack after I exited the palac

    Princess Allison’s POV ~~I wasn’t there, but I heard the celebration. It was earthshaking, so who in the pack wouldn’t hear or feel it? Even though I didn’t join the celebration, the rumors of what led to such happiness reached me within the next hour. Since Benita was dead, I have been assigned another servant, even though I wasn’t welcomed in the palace. No one made me feel welcome, but I didn’t care because I trusted fake Jose’s plan to work just fine. I mean, it has been working for the past week. I thought nothing could change the outcome until my new servant came to my bedroom with breakfast. “What’s the noise about, Orla?” I asked the sweet girl who had replaced Benita. Although she was no Benita, she had been serving me with respect since she became my servant.“There’s no noise, Princess Allison,” Orla answered, staring straight into my eyes for the first time since she started serving me. My brows furrowed as I took the tray of food from her. I clarified my question,

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   225. More Than Enough

    HAYLEE~~Saying I was relieved would be an understatement of the century; I was overwhelmed with elation, a surge of joy that went beyond mere relief. The sound of joy and the promise of a better future were enough reasons for me to be happy.And I was.But at the same time, I was worried. Or maybe it was fear because I wasn’t sure I could live up to the pack’s expectations. The same expectations that I had infused into their minds when I said these words to them:“I promise to be a queen who leaves marks—marks that will remain unerasable throughout history.”Even after the small celebration that happened after my coronation was scheduled, I still couldn’t figure out how those words made their way out of my mouth. It was as if a part of me I never knew existed voiced those words… a part of me that was awakened when the pack openly accepted me.“You’ve always wanted to be accepted,” Liya chimed into my mind as I walked back to the bedroom with Xalen, who was grinning from ear to ear

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~Mornings and nights have become my favorites. I wake up to Haylee in the morning and share breakfast with the family before facing the rest of the world. And at night, I get to leave the chaos behind, return to my loved ones, and fall asleep with Haylee in my arms.But today, this cherished morning had to end earlier than usual. In that moment, I worried it would be yet another tough day for my mate and me.“It’s Roy. You might want to see this,” my cousin’s voice boomed through the room before I could even open the door.Sophia and Asher had been hanging on me as I stood there, but as soon as they saw Roy, they jumped on him instead, giving me a moment to compose myself after the strenuous dancing and singing.“You call that singing? Haylee calls it a sound. A bad sound,” Theo mocked me through the link.Roy’s cry for help snapped me out of it. “Can you get one of them off me? I’m not a father yet, and this is pure torture.”“More like practice, brother,” I quip

    HAYLEE~~I cried my heart out to sleep last night. I was sad after the meeting with Kaylee, and even though Flavai tried to console me, I couldn’t shake off the mood. I thought sleeping early would help me relax, and I yearned to reach out to Aradia so we could talk.Before I went to bed, Jodie was cranky, and she wouldn’t stop crying until I carried her. I didn’t know when I fell asleep with her in my arms, but it was a good sleep. It was as if she was crying to reach me so she could comfort me, even though other people had failed to do so.Jodie just happened to be my little comforter.That was the first thought that came to mind as I slipped out of the sleep realm that morning. Although I didn’t get to connect with Aradia, I woke up feeling less sad, and I didn’t understand why until my eyes fluttered open and instantly connected with Xalen’s happy eyes.“Good morning, sleeping beauty.” Xalen’s voice and love rushed into my mind as he spoke through our mate bond.His eyes twinkl

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~In that moment, my pack members got their priorities right. I could feel it in my bones, yet I added, “Protesting to have Haylee punished for being a good person caught in the middle of bad ones or evil would mean you are ready to have Alpha Richard as your Alpha and King.”To clarify, I added, “Yes, I will stop being your Alpha and give the pack to him. He and his family will lead you, and just like now, when they commit a crime or treat you unjustly, you won’t be able to prove it. Even if you can, the court will be against you, and your fellow pack members will wage war against you until you die in silence or get killed despite your innocence.”For a few minutes, I didn’t utter another word. I needed everything I had said to sink into the hundreds of minds listening to me.After a while, I continued, “I would be lying if I said I hadn’t thought about leaving after I found out that Laura was used against me. I wanted to give up because I was tired of losing ever

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~After many hours of secret meetings with the ten elders who had come forward to take an oath of loyalty, I thought to check on my mate before moving on to speak to every member of the pack.She has been on my mind all day, and I worry about her.However, I knew I had to get this done before going to Haylee so I could give her my full attention. With that thought in mind, I shoved my desire to see her to the depth of my stomach, looking around my empty office as I opened my mind to every member of the Royal Pack, creating a general link so everyone could hear me.Everyone but the little kids under the age of thirteen.My pack members' curiosity could be felt through the link I created, but since I was their Alpha, that feeling wasn’t overwhelming. I could control it.I breathed into their minds, “Good evening, members of the Royal Pack. As you can tell, it’s your Alpha and King, and this is a general message for all of you.”I managed to calm my nerves, sealing my

    HAYLEE~~“He would never have loved me if I didn't force him to. Hell, he is tolerating me because of what I know. Even now, he doesn't love me.” Kaylee smiled sadly.Her eyes were on me, and her sadness burned through the protective layer of my skin.I wished I could tell her that wasn't the truth, but at this moment, I knew nothing.“He would have loved you more than he loved me because he loved your mom more than he loved mine,” Kaylee stated, her voice blunt with no emotion. “Maybe if I didn't make him hit you, he would have felt love for you instead of the guilt I know he carries in his heart.”It was hard to believe Kaylee was the reason I got beaten. I mean, yes, I have always known she lied to our dad just to watch me suffer, but it was hard to believe she asked him to, and he did.Leverage or not, it doesn't feel right.Kaylee continued on that path, though, saying, “I couldn't let that happen, so I ruined his chances with you, threatening him every day so he couldn't hurt

    HAYLEE~~Would I have turned evil and mean if I’d found out that my dad cheated on my mom when I was five years old?I asked myself that before I heard the rest of Kaylee’s story, and my answer was no.But if I had waited until she finished, I believe my answer would have been different.“Like all lying assholes, Dad didn't tell my mom that he cheated on her. And even though she felt the pain when he did the deed with your mom, he denied it and blamed her pregnancy for everything, saying it was just an early sign,” Kaylee breathed, adjusting her position on the floor where she’d sat since she entered the room.I let her continue without interrupting. I noticed tears trickling down her face, her inner child weeping as her heart was broken all over again. I could only imagine the pain Kaylee felt when our drunken father confessed all this to her.And for her to remember it so vividly—that must have hurt so much that she buried it deep in her mind.“My mom believed his lies, but the t
