Chapter 56
Hayley POV
My annoyance with Cooper has reached an all-time high. He is just fishing, looking for the reassurance that I am still all his without doing anything about it. I'm so relieved that I have the day off today to clear my head, and Leila has a nice pamper day set up for us before the ball this evening.
"Good morning, hot stuff!" Leila squeals as she bursts through the door to my room.
"Guess who had all the coffee this morning?!" I tease, her bright mood a welcome distraction.
"Oh, I just can't wait to have all the chats with the most eligible lady in town!" She throws herself onto my bed, where I am packing a bag to take to the spa.
"That's a bit of an exaggeration." I look at her suspiciously. She seems a little too cheerful. Fake cheerful, like she's trying too hard.
"And yesterday was a little dramatic, Hayley! Kicking some Alpha butt, saving the pack, and having the always stoic, always sensible, always smoking hot Alpha Steel ea

Cooper POV"Cooper, what are you doing here?" Leila asks innocently as she approaches us, even though she knows exactly why I'm here. I ignore my sister completely as I walk straight up to Hayley, grip her firmly by the elbow, and steer her towards one of the grottos dotted around the spa. She yanks her arm back but walks with me willingly, seeming to know there is little point in protesting unless she wants to make a scene."What the hell Cooper? Don't manhandle me." She complains as soon as we are in private, whirling around to glare at me with her arms propped on her hips. I know I should focus on how angry she is with me, but I can't stop thinking about how amazing she looks.My wolf is driving me to claim her now, before any of these other circling males even get to look at her again. Nobody should see my mate in a bikini, definitely when she's not even marked yet, and he is not one bit happy. I suck in a deep breath and clench my fists to keep control. I k

Hayley POVLeaving Cooper in that grotto earlier, fully clothed, was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I had to jump straight into the water to try to hide how turned on I was from these shifters and their super-sensitive noses.I want him, more than anything else I've ever wanted before. I know that I'm pushing Cooper, but knowing he would have claimed his mate already if she were a wolf, I'm not willing to accept anything less. As we walk into the ballroom, my nerves disappear as I link my arm with hers. It's some people's worst nightmare, but I know I am good at this. Damn good. Mingling, chatting, and making connections, it's a skill.The ballroom looks amazing, bathed in soft pink tones and about a million twinkling lights. We snag a couple of flutes of champagne from a passing server and bump into Max, who looks dashing in his tux. His almost black hair is long on top and shaved at the sides, and tonight is slicked back neatly in a man bun. Other

Cooper POVEthan saunters up beside me as I pretend to casually look around the room while I am watching with trepidation as Hayley speaks to Alpha Reynolds at the bar, before accepting a drink from him and chatting away happily. I am about to push off the table I am leaning on and go over to interrupt, but Ethan places his hand on my arm to stop me."Wait Cooper, trust that she can handle herself," He advises."Easy for you to say," I am about to argue further and shake out of his grip when I see her heading back towards our table, Blake Steel in tow behind her. She stops in front of us and pulls Ethan in for a big hug and a kiss."So, you skip the boring parts of the weekend and just come for the party, eh?" she teases him good-naturedly. She's a vision in a mid-length off-white dress that skims over her curves. It's one-shouldered, so her bare marking spot is exposed and calling out to me. She's radiant."I was called in as reinforcements. I hea

Hayley POVAs I place my hand in Blake’s, I know that this is probably a terrible idea. Cooper is already on the verge of losing it if the maelstrom of emotions swirling through the bond is anything to go by. Will the sight of me dancing with another Alpha push him over the edge? I’m about to pull my hand away and turn back when Blakes’s grip tightens on my hand."Trust me, Hayley," He speaks so quietly into my ear that I’m certain nobody else around us can hear."I just... this is a bad idea," I blurt out, feeling genuinely afraid that Cooper will see this as a rejection, and I know from seeing Rex how much that will hurt him."He'll be fine. He's trying to be a gentleman, and act like a human would in this situation, giving you time and space, blah, blah, blah," He says, stopping and facing me with a big grin on his face, "but he's not human, and you are destined to be mated to a powerful wolf. So, the sooner he acts like himself

Cooper POVI sweep Hayley up over my shoulder, careful to keep her dress covering her modesty, and she giggles in surprise as I carry her off the dancefloor. She kicks and squirms as I stride towards the doors that open to the gardens outside. I hear whooping and laughter behind us as we leave our friends and family to disappear out into the darkness. I carry her in silence in the unseasonably warm evening air, a little away from the noise, and set her down on her feet gently."Cooper, I...." I don't even give her a chance to finish whatever it was she was going to say before I am on her, pressing her up against the wall, my mouth ravishing hers. I can't get enough. This week has been torture, the last month has been torture, and I need to be as close as physically possible to her now that she is finally going to be mine. I'm not backing down now. There are no doubts, no hesitation. As soon as she asked, I should have done it."Fuck Hayley, I don't know if I can

Hayley POVDazed, that’s how I feel. I sit up and stretch in the middle of the biggest, comfiest bed I have ever slept in. I am deliciously sore everywhere, and I gently run my fingers over the slightly raised mark on my neck that Cooper gave me last night. Just touching it reminds me of the night we had and sends shivers down my spine. Cooper was insatiable and woke me again and again to make love. It was as if he needed to prove to himself that this was real by taking me over and over until I was thoroughly satisfied and left in doubt who my body belonged to. Sex was always hot with Cooper, but now I realize he was holding back with me before, hiding a little of his dominance and his raw need for me.The bed is pointed towards a wall of glass, overlooking the tree-tops and valleys below, and light spills into the room past the curtains that we never got around to closing last night. I run my hand across the space beside me where Cooper slept and lean over to ta

Cooper POVWalking into lunch with my new mate on my arm is probably the best feeling in the world. I quickly forgot breakfast when my proposal went as I had hoped. I can't keep the smile off my face and beam with pride as some of our friends greet us with cheers when we walk into the dining room. We can’t get more than a few meters before being stopped by well-wishers as we make our way to our table. Hayley squeezes my hand, and I can feel her joy through the bond, boosting my own. I’m relieved she can finally see for herself how celebrated fated mates are in our world."Well, well, well, look what the cat dragged in," Ethan teases, "Hayley, you're only allowed to sit beside me if you promise no more visions of Cooper naked." He pulls Hayley in a friendly hug, and I swallow down the growl that tries to force its way out. Ethan laughs as he spots the look on my face over her shoulder. "Relax, buddy. She's all yours. If we didn't spot the mark, that giant ro
The Alpha's Saviour Epilogue
Hayley POV A flat white, shiny box with a pale pink bow tied around it is sitting in the middle of my bed. I glance back towards the bedroom door, but nobody is there watching. Surely if one of the gaggle of girls currently laughing and boozing it up in my sitting room had left it here for me to find, they would watch me open it. I drift closer and take the small envelope from underneath the ribbon, opening it carefully to read the message inside. Hayley, I am so sorry that I'm not there to pour shots down your neck on this, the most sacred of days. Although I'm more than confident Leah will do that for me! I am so happy that you are joining our family. I could never have dreamed that I would be lucky enough to end up with a sister like you. I wanted you to have this, maybe for the Luna Ceremony? It was just too pretty to leave behind. I love you so much, and I promise I will come back for the wedding. Enjoy the hen!! P.P.S. Please send some pics of the dick paraphernalia. I need
