All Chapters of Sleeping with the Alpha Who Despised Me: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Jay POV“I love you so much, River,” I said, my voice coming out deeper and softer than I intended. I cupped her face with both hands, forcing her to look into my eyes. “Please, don’t ever shut me out again, okay?”She nodded, a small smile tugging at the corners of her lips. “I won’t, I promise,” she whispered, her voice thick with emotion.I pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead, breathing her in, before reluctantly pulling away and sliding off the bed to gather the scattered files on the floor.“Were you busy?” she asked after a moment, her tone hesitant. “I’m sorry if I disturbed you.”I paused, glancing at her over my shoulder. There was this vulnerable, almost guilty look in her eyes that tugged at my chest.“Nah, baby, it’s fine,” I said, waving a hand dismissively as I stacked the papers neatly on the nightstand. “I’m never too busy for you.”Her face lit up instantly, her whole demeanor shifting from cautious to playful.“Good,” she said, her eyes sparkling as she grinned. “Be

Zed POVI stepped into the suite, tired and parched from my usual morning runThe first thing I noticed were my boxes sitting in the middle of the living room like they didn’t belong there — because they didn’t. My frown deepened as I looked around, confusion twisting in my gut.What the hell was going on?I dropped my keys on the side table, my eyes still fixed on the luggage. My box. My clothes. My things. Out here in the open, not where they should be.Just then, I heard the sound of dragging. I turned and saw Amber, her face pinched with annoyance, tugging her own suitcase across the floor toward the living room. She didn’t even spare me a glance at first.I took a few steps toward her, my voice tight and sharp. “What’s the meaning of this, Amber?” I demanded, my jaw clenching. “Why did you drop my box here?”She finally looked up at me, her brows furrowed like I was the one being unreasonable.“What do you mean by that?” she snapped back, her voice thick with irritation. “Today i

River POV"I was so mad, Hailey, you wouldn’t even believe it," I said, my voice muffled as I bit into my burger. Juice dripped down my fingers and I wiped it away hastily with a napkin. "Like… the fact that he just left me there hanging. It was so humiliating.""Horny," Hailey added, snorting, trying so hard not to burst out laughing.I stopped chewing and stared at her. "Really, Hailey? You’re unbelievable."She finally let it out, a full belly laugh echoing across the small restaurant table. A few people even glanced over, but she didn’t care."It’s not funny," I muttered, narrowing my eyes at her, but the corners of my lips twitched despite myself."But it is!" she wheezed between fits of laughter, wiping tears from the corner of her eye."Really? This is what we’re doing now? Mocking my misery?" I raised an eyebrow at her, but she just kept laughing."Okay, okay," she finally managed to say, catching her breath. "I’m sorry." She pressed her palms together like she was praying. "I

Amber POVI sat at the edge of the bed, staring at the floor, my mind a complete mess. I didn’t even know where to start or what to do. Ever since that evening… ever since Zed saw River again, he had changed completely.He wasn’t the same loving Zed I knew. He barely even looked at me now without that harsh, cold glare in his eyes. Every word he said to me felt like a blade against my heart.I wasn’t sure… but deep down, I knew River was behind all of this. She always was. She always found a way to ruin everything for me — to snatch every little happiness I had.I pulled my knees to my chest and hugged them, feeling my body tremble. My eyes burned as tears threatened to fall. I didn’t know what else to do… so I picked up my phone and dialed my mother’s number.It didn’t ring long before she answered.“Amber!” she said, smiling widely. “How are you? How’s your little trip going?”I sighed, my shoulders dropping. “The trip was going great… well, until…”Her smile faded immediately. “Wha

River POV“Steven, hurry up and eat your vegetables!” I urged, tapping my fingers against the edge of the table impatiently.He just sat there, pouting, pushing the broccoli around with his fork like it was some alien creature.“But mummy, I don’t want to,” he whined, his lower lip jutting out dramatically. “I’m a wolf anyway! I don’t need vegetables. I only need meat.”I let out a loud scoff and crossed my arms. “Vegetables are good for you, and you're going to finish every single one of them on that plate, do you hear me?” I scolded, giving him that pointed “mom” look I’d perfected over the years.Steven sighed so dramatically you'd think I just told him he'd never see the moon again. But at least he finally picked up his spoon and started nibbling on a piece of carrot, his face twisted in exaggerated disgust.He looked so sad it almost made me laugh, but I held my ground. Goddess knew if I let him skip vegetables once, I’d lose this battle forever.Suddenly, the dining room door s
