All Chapters of Billionaire Alpha's Plus-Size Mate : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Lillian's POVI woke up with a smile already on my face.For a few seconds, I simply stared at the ceiling, remembering everything that had happened the night before. The feast.The music. The gifts. The way everyone had cheered for me. And most of all, the way Hayes had looked at me while we danced.A warm feeling spread through my chest.I couldn't remember the last time I had woken up feeling this happy.I sat up in bed and stretched, feeling strangely refreshed. Even my body felt lighter.The first thing that came to my mind was Isabella. I wanted to tell her everything.I wanted to tell her about Hayes, about the pack, about Xathura, about my powers, and about how different my life had become in such a short time.I had been waiting for morning just so I could call her.I quickly reached for the phone Hayes had given me and dialed her number. The call failed. I frowned. I checked the number again carefully. Every digit was correct. I tried again. Failed.My smile disappeared. "T

Lillian's POV I had never been this way around anyone.Jake had never made me feel this fluttering warmth. Even when I had loved him, being around him had always left me wondering whether I was good enough.With Hayes, I found myself wondering something completely different. Does he miss me too?"Madam Lillian?" I blinked. Nina was staring at me."Yes?"She smiled."I asked you to add the herbs." I looked down at my hands. "Oh."I quickly reached for them. "Sorry. I wasn't paying attention.""I noticed."Her amused expression made my cheeks burn.I sprinkled the herbs into the pot and tried to focus.This time, I managed to pay attention for several minutes.Then Hayes' face appeared in my mind again. His eyes. His smile. The way he had called me Lillie. I could almost hear his voice.You look beautiful, Lillie.My heart fluttered so hard that I had to stop stirring.I placed a hand against my chest.What was happening to me?The happiness I'd felt whenever I thought of him was slowl

Lillian's POVThe moment I got home, I placed the book on the coffee table and hurried into the kitchen.I had no intention of spending the evening thinking about Hayes.Tonight, I was going to read.I made myself a large bowl of popcorn, adding more milk than I probably needed, then prepared a cup of warm chocolate milk before carrying everything into the living room.I settled comfortably onto the sofa, placed the bowl on my lap, and opened the book.I felt almost like a child preparing to read a collection of horror stories.Only these weren't fictional stories. They were records of real wolves and real packs.I turned the first page.The book was filled with illustrations, symbols, maps, and descriptions of ancient packs. Every pack had its own symbol, usually drawn beside its name, along with an image of the wolves associated with it.I read one story after another.There was the Bloodfang Pack, whose members had supposedly used forbidden rituals to increase their strength.Then t

Lillian's POV It was the first time since arriving at the pack that I hadn't slept at all. Not even for a few minutes. I had tried everything. I had turned from one side of the bed to the other, closed my eyes, counted my breaths, and even buried myself beneath the blankets, hoping sleep would eventually take over.It never did.By morning, I was exhausted.I was surely convinced Elder Victor had been right. There had to be something about that book. Perhaps the dark energy he had mentioned had somehow affected me. I was pregnant, after all, and maybe my body was more sensitive to things like that now.Whatever the reason, I was glad I hadn't continued reading.I couldn't stop thinking about the Silver Luna, though. There had been something about her that felt strangely familiar..I wanted answers. But I would wait for Hayes.Once he returned, I would ask him about her. Perhaps he knew who she was or what had happened to her. For now, I needed to make sure I was fine. I couldn't affor

Lillian's POVThe moment the car pulled into the sports center, I felt something inside me shift.I stared through the window, barely breathing as the familiar building came into view.I had been here countless times before.The sports center was enormous, with wide glass doors at the entrance and the kingdom's emblem displayed above them. Large banners hung along the walls, advertising upcoming competitions and athletic events. Through the glass, I could see people moving between the reception area, the training halls, and the different sporting facilities inside.There was an Olympic-sized swimming pool, several indoor courts, a large fitness hall, and a section reserved for professional athletes.I had once known every corner of this place.And yet, sitting inside that car, it felt strangely unfamiliar.I had genuinely believed I would never come back here.My throat tightened. "Here we are," I whispered.The guards parked a short distance away from me. They climbed out first, pr
