All Chapters of Sleeping with the Alpha Who Despised Me: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

River’s POVAs I drove down the narrow streets that led to the Alpha’s house of the Crescent Moon Pack, my grip on the steering wheel tightened. I knew this path too well, every curve, every bend… and yet I had spent years trying to erase it from my memory.The memories—the love, the betrayal, the heartbreak—clung to me like shadows I could never run away from . No matter how hard I tried to bury them, they always made their way back. And now here I was, heading straight to the one place that had scarred me the most. The Alpha’s house. Zed’s house.I slowed down as the familiar sight came into view. The pack grounds looked almost exactly as I remembered them, like they hadn't been touched by time. Wooden houses lined the street, their roofs sloping to one side but still standing tall like the wolves who’d lived there for decades. Warriors patrolled the edges, their eyes scanning the territory with utmost precision. Children ran barefoot in the dirt, their laughter ringing through the

River’s POVAfter that awkward encounter with Derek, I drove into the Alpha’s house. There was a guard stationed in front as well. Gerard. I knew him too well.The moment I stepped out of the car and he spotted me, he quickly left his post. No doubt running off to inform him that an unusual guest had arrived.While I waited, my eyes wandered around the compound. Nothing much had changed. Aside from a few new flowers here and there, everything else looked exactly the same as the last time I was here.My gaze landed on the porch. And just like that, the memory of eight years ago came rushing back—sharp, vivid and oh so painful.That night.It felt like I could still see myself there, crouched on the porch floor. My clothes torn and scattered, my cheeks wet with tears as I begged and pleaded with my husband. Begged him to believe me. To choose me. To at least open the door and listen.But he didn’t.He stood there, watched me fall apart, and still, he turned me away– believed her over me

River’s POVAs much as I tried to deny it, I knew he still owned this wounded, bleeding heart of mine.I eyed him briefly, flashed him a fake smile before I turned towards the door. “But that’s not the reason I came here today. I have a case, and I need your help proving the truth.”I stopped by the patio and lifted my chin. “So, if you would please take me inside, Alpha, we can get on with business.”He looked at me with confusion etched on his face. “You’re the private investigator I spoke with? But you sounded so… manly over the phone.”I let out a short, humorless chuckle. “No, I’m not. My PI is the man you’ve been communicating with,” I explained. “We were supposed to come together, but apparently, he’s running late. So here I am.”“Okay?” His brows furrowed, his tone laced with suspicion. “So what exactly are you here for if you already have a PI? Because I’m sure as hell you didn’t come here just to say hello to me or your sister. You hate us both.”His words stung, reminded me

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.”“Good,” I muttered, a smile tugging at my lips.“They should be back in about two hours,” she added cautiously. “So whatever you want to do, you have to be here soon.”“Don’t worry. I’ll be there before then.”There was a pause. Then, almost hesitantly, she asked, “Tell me… why are you doing this again?”I laughed softly, a sharp sound. “To destroy her. Her relationship, her heart—everything. River didn’t deserve Zed, and she sure as hell doesn’t deserve Alpha Jay.”A sigh slipped through the receiver. “There’s a big chance this won’t work, you know.”“There’s no harm in trying,” I replied smoothly. “I’ll call you later.”I ended the call and dropped the phone into my bag. Pulling out a smal

River’s POVI was furious. Not at Zed, but at myself.I’d let my guard down—done the very thing I swore I wouldn’t when I set foot in this place. I had let Zed get too close. Let him kiss me… touch me.And if Derek hadn’t walked in when he did, only the goddess knows how far it would’ve gone.Stupid. I felt so damn stupid. All I’d done was feed whatever dangerous feelings Zed thought he had for me. That kiss would only encourage him, give him more reason to push boundaries I never wanted crossed.No. I wasn’t going to let that happen again.I straightened in my seat, determination hardening inside me. I would wait. And the second Zed walked through that door, I would tell him exactly what was on my mind. I’d make it clear—he was never to try something like that again.Footsteps approached from outside, and my stomach tightened. I stood, bracing myself for the conversation we were about to have.The door swung open, and Zed walked in. But before I could speak, another figure stepped in
