All Chapters of Billionaire Alpha's Plus-Size Mate : Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

Hayes's POVI had been sitting in Lillian's apartment since yesterday.I didn't know why.There was nothing here for me to find. She wasn't here. Her scent had already faded from the rooms, and there was no reason to believe she would suddenly walk through the door.Yet I couldn't make myself leave.Some part of me kept believing she would come back.Maybe she would open the door, look at me with those greyish-brown eyes, and tell me she had changed her mind.Maybe she would forgive me. Maybe I could finally tell her everything properly.I knew none of it made sense. Lillian had every reason to stay away from me.I had lied to her.I had allowed her to believe things about our relationship that weren't completely true, and when she finally discovered the truth, I hadn't even been able to look her in the eyes when she asked me if I loved her.I closed my eyes.How was she doing? Where had she gone? Was she somewhere safe?The questions had been running through my mind since she disappe

Lillian's POV I had been tied to this bed for several days.I had lost count of exactly how many.The only times they untied me were when I needed to eat, use the restroom, or take a bath. Even then, someone was always watching me.At first, I hated every second of it.I hated waking up with my wrists restrained. I hated having to wait for someone to come into the room before I could even move freely. I hated the feeling of being trapped.But after a while, I realized something.They had made one mistake. They had given me time. Time to watch them. Time to listen. Time to learn.Whenever they untied me, I made sure to use those few minutes wisely. I stretched my arms, rolled my shoulders, moved my legs and flexed my fingers. I stretched my back whenever I could, carefully working through the stiffness that came from spending so many hours in one position.I needed my body to remain strong.If I was going to escape, I couldn't afford to be weak.I couldn't depend on my powers either.

Lillian's POV I took a slow step backward. Then another.I had to try something.I suddenly turned and ran."Grab her!"One of the men jumped down from the jeep.Another pulled out a gun.My heart stopped. He raised it and pointed it straight at me.They needed me alive. They needed my baby alive..They wouldn't shoot me.At least, that's what I told myself.So I ran.A gunshot exploded through the forest.Pain tore through my leg.I cried out.My leg gave way beneath me, and I stumbled forward before crashing hard onto the ground.For a moment, I couldn't breathe.I tried to push myself up. I couldn't.Something heavy seemed to settle over me, pressing down on my body and making it difficult to move.My vision blurred. The voices around me became distant.I reached for my stomach. "Baby..." My fingers trembled against my bump.I tried to push myself up.My entire body felt weak, and dizziness washed over me, but I refused to stay on the ground.I planted my hands against the earth an

Hayes's POV I sat at the head of the table, listening to the elders discuss matters concerning the pack and finding my heir. At least, I was supposed to be listening.But my mind was somewhere else. Lillian.No matter how hard I tried to focus on the meeting, my thoughts always found their way back to her.Where was she? Was she safe? Was she hurt? Was someone taking care of her?I had searched everywhere.Every part of the surrounding territories had been searched. Trackers had been sent out repeatedly, and sorcerers capable of detecting and tracing portal magic had been brought in to help.Nothing. It was as if Lillian had disappeared into thin air.There wasn't a single trail strong enough to lead us to her.Every passing day without her felt worse than the one before.I couldn't sleep properly. I barely ate.Even when I closed my eyes, I kept seeing her face the last time she looked at me.The pain in her eyes. The tears. The way she flinched when I tried to touch her.I had nev

Hayes's POV The four elders walked into my study.Elder Victor. Elder Samuel. Elder Bjorn.And Old Man Howl.I watched them carefully as they entered. None of them spoke immediately.I gestured toward the chairs in front of my desk."Sit."They exchanged brief looks."No, Alpha," Elder Victor said.I narrowed my eyes slightly. Something was wrong.Victor stepped forward. "We need to discuss Lillian."My jaw tightened at the sound of her name. "What about her?"Victor looked at me seriously. "How are we going to find her now? We need her here as soon as possible."I stared at him. He continued before I could answer. "She has the heir."My fingers slowly curled against the arm of my chair.Elder Bjorn stepped forward. "Yes, Alpha. We need to think about what happens next. What if something happens to the heir?"My expression hardened. "What are you suggesting?"Bjorn swallowed. "What if she causes harm to the child because of what was done to her bloodline?"My fingers clenched. For a
